Shared talent: Please, countless versions of me!

"Doctor? Are you listening to me?"

Ran's voice came again, and the professor immediately laughed, "You mean Shinichi? I haven't seen him much today, hahaha..."

Zhang Shan didn't know where to begin criticizing the doctor's blatant lying.

As he was pondering the shrinking Shinichi, his phone suddenly rang.

"Hey honey, what's wrong?"

"Yama, have you run into that bastard Shinichi?" Sonoko asked.

At this moment, Zhang Shan and Shinichi are at Professor Agasa's house, while Sonoko and Ran are standing at the door of Shinichi's house next door.

“I didn’t see her. I’m at Professor Agasa’s house right now. I was with Ran when she called,” Zhang Shan said.

Upon hearing this, Sonoko exclaimed with delight, "You're over there! Come and open the door for me and Ran!"

After hanging up the phone, Shinichi looked at Zhang Shan with a face full of despair and said, "Why did we let them come?! What if we get exposed?!"

"Don't worry, those two won't find out who you are." Zhang Shan waved his hand dismissively and got up to open the door for Yuanzi and the others.

"What do you mean 'won't they find out'?! What if they do? How big is your heart?!" Shinichi complained helplessly. Seeing Sonoko and Ran enter through the door, a thought flashed through his mind. He immediately took out a pair of glasses from the professor's drawer, changed his hairstyle, and prayed in his heart, "Please don't let them recognize me!"

After the two girls came in, Sonoko was still complaining that Shinichi was an irresponsible scumbag who had left Ran, a girl, behind. Ran's gaze immediately fell on Shinichi. The more she looked at the boy, the more familiar he seemed!

"you!"

Ran walked up to Shinichi in two steps, smiling broadly, and said, "What a cute kid! What's your name?!"

"Me!" Shinichi looked helplessly at Zhang Shan, but the latter completely ignored him.

"That guy who values ​​women more than friends!"

Out of desperation, Shinichi looked around aimlessly until he spotted two books on the bookshelf behind him. A sudden inspiration struck him, and he exclaimed, "My name is Conan Edogawa! I'm a distant relative of Shinichi-nii!"

Seeing the awkward smile on Conan's face, Ran hesitated for a moment before dismissing her doubts.

As mentioned before, if you don't see it with your own eyes or experience it firsthand, who would believe that an adult can suddenly turn into a child?

However, just then, the doctor suddenly spoke up: "Yeah, Shinichi was supposed to look after this kid, but now that guy has suddenly disappeared. You see, could you help look after him for the time being?"

Upon hearing what the professor said, Conan almost spat out a mouthful of blood!

First Zhang Shan, then the PhD—are you two conspiring to ruin me?!

After listening to the professor's words, Ran looked at Conan's face, which resembled Shinichi's, and finally nodded, saying, "Okay, until Shinichi comes back, Conan can stay with me!"

Both Zhang Shan and Dr. Agasa chose to ignore Conan's pleading gaze.

And so, Shinichi was taken home by Ran.

After leaving the doctor's house, Zhang Shan and his companion parted ways with Xiao Lan and the others.

On the way, Sonoko said angrily, "What on earth is Shinichi doing? He just disappeared without a trace, and Ran is raising someone else's child before they've even gotten close to Shinichi. What a huge idiot!"

Her words were full of exasperation and disappointment. Zhang Shan could only comfort her and tell her to calm down. He promised that once he found Shinichi, he would give him a good beating and let Sonoko vent her anger!

"Okay! It's settled!"

"No problem! Leave it to me!"

Shinichi: If you want to hit me, just say so. There's no need to beat around the bush like this!

The plan to go to the amusement park was disrupted, and Yuanzi went straight home in a luxury car, leaving Zhang Shan bewildered in the wind.

"No? I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"

Left with no other option, he had to walk home by himself.

Fortunately, his home was nearby, and he returned home after walking for about twenty minutes.

While cooking in the afternoon, Zhang Shan suddenly felt dizzy and opened his eyes again, only to see complete darkness.

"Where am I?" Zhang Shan was full of questions. "Wasn't I cooking in the kitchen? How did I suddenly end up here? Have I been kidnapped?"

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Shan felt hungry and said impatiently, "Hey! Where am I? If you're so capable, let me leave!"

The next moment, his consciousness returned to his body, and Zhang Shan was stunned when he saw the vegetables he hadn't finished cutting!

"No? What's going on?"

Putting down what he was holding, Zhang Shan went to the living room and silently chanted, "Enter!"

The next moment, he found himself back in that dark space.

"go out!"

Seeing the changes before him, he returned to the living room.

"This! Could it be my cheat ability?!" Zhang Shan instantly thought of the cheat ability of transmigrators, then pointed to the teacup on the table and silently chanted, "Collect!"

……

Nothing happened.

"Can't you?"

He frowned; it seemed his cheat system wasn't quite what he'd imagined.

Chapter 75 So Close, Yet So Far

Gululu~

In the living room, Zhang Shan's abdomen began to protest again.

After an afternoon of trying, Zhang Shan was very disappointed with his magic touch.

"It can't store things, the flow of time inside is almost the same as outside, it can't be used as a mental time chamber, and it's not some kind of spatial ability. It seems to only allow my consciousness to enter another space that I don't know where." Zhang Shan's tone was full of helplessness. He had tried all the uses he could think of, but none of them worked. His cheat ability was more difficult to use than he had imagined.

"That's it for now, let's eat first."

Despite feeling somewhat tired, Zhang Shan continued preparing the lunch he had only half-finished at noon—which was now dinner.

The next day, Zhang Shan woke up with a headache, as if he had forgotten something.

"Strange? Why do I have this surreal feeling, like I've been transported to another world?"

Shaking his head, he finished washing up and headed to school with his backpack.

Walking down the street, Zhang Shan remained puzzled. After sorting through his memories, he finally remembered: wasn't yesterday Saturday? Today should be Sunday! Why was he going to school?!

However, looking at the students around him wearing school uniforms and carrying backpacks, he began to doubt whether he had remembered it wrong.

As they approached the school gate, Sonoko got out of the luxury car and walked expertly to Zhang Shan's side. Seeing his slightly furrowed brows, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong? You look so preoccupied so early in the morning?"

Hearing Sonoko's voice, Zhang Shan snapped out of his reverie and looked at her, asking, "Sonoko, do you remember how long Shinichi has been missing?"

Sonoko gave Zhang Shan a strange look and replied, "He disappeared last Saturday. Yesterday, Ran and I were just arguing with that irresponsible guy..."

At this point, Sonoko paused for a moment, then, as if realizing something, raised an eyebrow at Zhang Shan and said, "What? Is it because I went to be with Xiaolan yesterday and didn't spend time with you that some people are jealous today?"

"Yesterday?" Zhang Shan stroked his chin and nodded, thinking to himself, "It seems that the timeline that has been stable for ten years is finally about to be completely thrown into chaos!"

Facing the impending chaos, Zhang Shan felt no worry whatsoever; on the contrary, he was filled with anticipation!

"Come on! A day is a holiday, three days is Valentine's Day, and a week is Christmas! Wonderful days! Here I come!"

Just as he was filled with anticipation for the future, Sonoko's next words were like a bucket of cold water, splashed on Zhang Shan's passionate heart!

"What do you think? After we get married at eighteen, should we take a world trip?"

Eighteen years old...

marry……

The words we once spoke, the eighteen years that were once so easily within our grasp, have now become a future that we can only see but never touch!

"Do not!!!"

Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is howling.

Zhang Shan suddenly knelt on the ground with a sorrowful expression, as if he had lost all hope for life!

"Hey! Shan! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Sonoko squatted down next to Zhang Shan with a worried look on her face. Looking at the man who had lost all color, she was at a loss for what to do.

After a while, Zhang Shan recovered and slowly got up, saying, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something that makes me despair."

Seeing that he had recovered somewhat, Sonoko breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest as she said, "It's okay if you don't want to go on a trip. We can have our honeymoon in our own backyard."

Sonoko assumed Zhang Shan's recent change was due to his reluctance to travel the world. Although she was somewhat annoyed, judging from his demeanor, he genuinely seemed unwilling to go. As a well-mannered and sensible woman, she had no choice but to appease him.

“It’s not like that.” Zhang Shan shook his head slightly and smiled. “Global travel is not a problem. I was just thinking about something else, which is why I was a little discouraged.”

"You were taken aback?!" Sonoko exclaimed in surprise. Ever since she met Zhang Shan, he had always seemed so confident. Even when facing his parents, Zhang Shan hadn't shown much panic, let alone being taken aback!

What kind of thing could have instantly reduced Zhang Shan to such a state?

Zhang Shan nodded, his smile returning: "But don't worry, I've recovered now, so you don't need to worry about me."

Seeing this, Sonoko had no choice but to suppress her questions for the time being and said with a smile, "Alright, but if there's anything I can do to help, be sure to tell me! Don't try to handle it all by yourself!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The two walked into the classroom chatting and laughing, and saw that Xiaolan was already sitting in her seat early today, staring blankly at an empty seat.

Sonoko went to her best friend's side and comforted her, "Ran, cheer up! You're the Taekwondo Queen, how can you become like this because of a man?"

Startled by Sonoko's sudden arrival, Ran turned around in a daze. Seeing Sonoko, she laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of idiot whose mind is only on romance! Shinichi used to disappear all the time, it was just too sudden this time..."

Some people may say they are not love-obsessed, but in reality they are definitely love-obsessed.

With a soft sigh, Sonoko knew she couldn't persuade her best friend, so she returned to her seat and prepared for today's lesson.

For an entire day, Zhang Shan was studying his cheat device, his consciousness constantly shifting between two spaces, but he still couldn't figure out how to use it.

"No way? Could this really be a joke played on me by fate?" Zhang Shan silently wept.

The golden finger that he finally got seems to be just for show, and the promised eighteen years old has become an unreachable shore. Anyone would be in despair in this situation!

After school that evening, Zhang Shan went home and received a call from Conan.

"Zhang Shan, don't you have some empty rooms that no one is living in? Can I move in there?"

On the phone, Conan's tone was pleading, as if he were about to face something terrifying.

"No way, that room is for Sonoko's use only, don't even think about it!" Zhang Shan decisively rejected Conan's request, then changed the subject, his tone teasing, "Let me guess, Ran isn't planning to give you a bath tonight, is she?"
