Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 52: Suwa Yuji's Kendo Guide

[Received 4 stars for "Suwa Yuji's Kendo Guide" and 1 star for "The Victim's Guide: How to Leave a Last Message"]

[Death participation level 2, additional reward 2 star]

……

As the sound of the last page turning faded away, the projected text in Gao Mo's eyes also dissipated like smoke.

Suwa Yuji was detained by Inspector Megure and others, and he narrowed his eyes again when he passed by Gao Mo.

He paused for a moment, and only when he was about to leave the Maru family residence did he say to Megure, "Officer, can you hand Kikuchiyo over to the detective later?"

"what?"

"I don't want Kikuchiyo to continue falling into the hands of fools."

"You really are..."

Megure escorted Suwa Yuji into the police car, looked at Gao Mo who was talking to Maori Kogoro, and a look of relief appeared on his face.

He actually always felt guilty towards his old subordinate Maori.

Now that he sees his old subordinates finally coming out of the shadows and getting better and better, he is really happy.

"Ugh——!"

Gao Mo felt his gaze turning back.

In addition to Suwa Yuji, Mrs. Maru was also taken to the police station in tears.

Whether the doctor was killed by Marudenjiro is still just speculation and there is not enough evidence.

backyard.

The two remaining maids were at a loss as to what to do. Seeing the dead fish in the pond, they finally covered their mouths and cried out, "Today is truly full of bad luck! Even the master's favorite fish is dead!"

Gao Mo walked to the corridor and watched the servants salvage the dead fish quietly, without even checking the system rewards carefully.

He had some impression of this case. In the original work, it seemed that only the head of the Maru family was killed, and the lover doctor was alive and well in the end.

Is this the way the world is, or is it because of him...

Thinking about the last time when the Yumoto family was almost wiped out, he suddenly had difficulty making a judgment.

There was something wrong with the world, but it seemed like there was something wrong with him too.

"Wow!"

Gao Mo's eyes fluctuated.

There was still a faint outline of the book badge in front of my eyes.

In the eyes of outsiders, maybe he is the god of death?
"What are you thinking about?"

Kogoro Mouri returned to the backyard in high spirits.

"It's still much more comfortable when you're around. I don't even have to go into sleep mode, and my brain is much sharper. It's like I'm being helped by God, haha!"

"..."

This guy has forgotten the pain now that his wound has healed. Has he forgotten the danger so quickly?
"Uncle, I think you'd better get your health back on track," Gao Mo reminded.

"At my age, how can I change so easily?"

The man with a mustache patted Gao Mo's shoulder with a serious face.

"Thank you so much for that. If you hadn't helped me, I might have been... That guy is a true master, at least at the fifth level."

Before Gao Mo could respond, the man with a mustache quickly changed his expression, as if he remembered something and looked like a pig.

"This happened so suddenly, I'll take you to Ginza tonight to calm your nerves... You're quite gifted at reasoning, but your emotions seem a little slow. That Mrs. Maru just now..."

"father!"

Xiaolan was pulling Conan through the corridor and heard the devilish laughter of the mustache man from afar.

"You want to drag me to Ginza to cause trouble again, don't you?"

"What are you talking about?" The man with the mustache broke out in a cold sweat. "Is your dad that kind of person? We're just going to Ginza to watch a movie..."

"Really? Which one? Is it the recently popular 'Summer Santa Claus'?"

"Yeah yeah!"

"That's the end! That movie was taken off the shelves last week!!"

Xiaolan pulled her father away out of frustration, and only then did she notice Gao Mo wearing a vest.

"Huh? You are..."

"Sister Xiaolan, hurry up," Conan guessed the first time he saw Gao Mo, and quickly pulled Xiaolan to shout, "I'm so hungry, let's go back and eat!"

Although Gao Mo's makeup skills are much more sophisticated this time, we can still make a simple guess...

I guess only Gao Mo would play like this.

Xiaolan turned her attention back to her father: "Dad, don't you want to calm down? How about we eat dinner out? We just got the commission..."

"Ah? I didn't get the balance."

The man with a small mustache scratched his head in frustration, turned around and found that Gao Mo had already left, so he quickly shouted.

"Don't forget to think about that!"

Gao Mo waved his hand and left the Wan family residence.

It's okay to be a partner occasionally, but it's okay to be an assistant to the mustache guy.

Most of this guy's cases happened when he was out playing, and it seemed like they were often not on the same timeline - recently, there have been a lot of case records inexplicably appearing in the Maori Detective Agency.

If he were to go over and be an assistant, his work would most likely be routine affair investigations or finding cats and dogs, and he might not encounter many cases.

There are also a lot of issues such as salary, master-slave relationship, etc.

It’s better to keep things simple between friends.

……

It was already evening when we returned to our apartment.

In the middle, Gao Mo found a place to remove his makeup and change his clothes. Near the apartment building.

When I passed by the international supermarket where I used to work, I unexpectedly found several police cars parked in front of the supermarket. I didn’t know what was going on.

Listening to the discussion among the onlookers outside, it seemed that a murder had occurred. The murderer was a former employee of the supermarket. He did not escape after killing people and was arrested on the spot by the police.

Gao Mo watched for a while, but felt nothing at all.

I did find out that the deceased was the female manager.

Can this supermarket continue to operate?
Gao Mo casually bought some food at the convenience store and subconsciously glanced at the mail room when he went upstairs.

No new packages.

Will he need to find cases on his own in the future?

It’s not impossible, but if there are no role-playing tasks, how can I include the professions?
At present, the only profession that he has truly activated by himself is "Detective", and this is based on his continued experience of several cases and the drawing of the Mustache Detective's Notes.

Let’s wait and see…

Gao Mo waited briefly in front of the elevator and only stepped in after making sure there were no signs of danger.

He didn't think this professional role-playing system was just for him to upgrade his actor to level 2.
It has been some time since he got the "Death Note", and while he is wary of it, he has never stopped studying and observing it.

Compared to the orthodox God of Death behind this world, "Death Note" is more like an alien God of Death, coming here with him to face the local God of Death together.

The most obvious thing is that the presence of "Death Note" is becoming stronger and stronger.

Maybe one day there will be no need for carrier projection, and this thing can be directly materialized into reality.

"Ding!"

The elevator opens on the 16th floor.

Gao Mo habitually looked towards Room 1602. Judging from the traces behind the door, Jiang Gu Ling still had not returned.

Did they abandon him and move their base?
A bit of a headache.

He only just realized that the detective agency actually had to apply for a detective license from the Public Security Commission, and the review process would take 1 to 3 months—who knew how long this chaotic timeline would drag on.

If Furuya Rei were still alive, he could indirectly ask his subordinates to save him a lot of trouble.

"Crack!"

The door of Room 1603 next to Gao Mo suddenly opened, and a thin young man with long hair came out carrying a bag of garbage. After seeing Gao Mo, he nodded slightly and walked straight to the elevator.

Someone actually moved into the haunted house so quickly.

I thought it would be vacant for a long time.

After all, people who are looking for cheap prices will rent cheap apartments, and those who are not sensitive to rent will not live in unpleasant houses.

Gao Mo took out the key to open the door, and without paying much attention to his neighbors, he changed his shoes and went into the house with a slightly relaxed look.

No matter what happens outside, home is always his warm harbor, as if it can shield him from the malice of the whole world.

After turning on the TV, I went into the kitchen to boil a pot of water and had dinner with instant noodles while enjoying the night view.

The TV program happened to be related to today's Maru case, and the man with a mustache was chased by reporters for an interview while he was eating.

It will probably be on the front page of the news again tomorrow.

Gao Mo lay back on his favorite sofa, and after the song and dance program started, he began to check the note projection amid the sounds of singing and dancing.

[Super Ability: Eagle Vision]

[Professional Talents: Quickly Entering the Role, Stronger with Age, Disguise Expert]

[Book Abilities: Makeup lv3, Shooting lv2, Reasoning lv2]

[Storage Pool: 14 Stars]

……

Shooting and reasoning have both been upgraded to level 2.
Because I was studying detective books during this period, I didn't actually read Moustache's "Shooting Guide" much.

It seems that he has some talent in shooting.

There were still two books left to increase the number of stars. Gao Mo did not delay any further and took the reference book next to him and projected it directly.

A 1-star miscellaneous book, "A Victim's Guide: How to Leave a Last Message," is still as funny as ever...

It cannot be said to be completely useless. At least it can help one put oneself in the victim's shoes and provide some assistance in reasoning.

Next is the 4-star professional book "Suwa Yuji's Kendo Guide" - the combat power book he is concerned about.

But when I really got this, I felt a little nervous.

Judging from judo, his real talent shortcoming seems to be fighting.

"Wow!"

The sound of turning pages of books echoed in the living room.

Gao Mo didn't spend too much time reading the two books.

Another 5 stars were added, bringing the total number of stars in the storage pool to 19.

[Storage Pool: 19 Stars]

Just one more star needed to advance to professional level.

but……

Gao Mo looked at the preserved "Guide to Kendo" with a headache.

It's not difficult to read.

But this thing requires a lot of basic practice and actual combat training. It is not a martial arts secret book that can be used as soon as you learn it.

I can only say that it is a little better than judo, and you don’t have to start from scratch.

Another skill that takes time to hone.

Added changes: Being involved in a murder case is to attract the attention of the God of Death, and the vest is to deal with various strange criminals in the Conan world, because the Death Mark will not only attract the God of Death, but also amplify people's malice.
