Survival Manual of the Science Fiction World

Conan was filled with grief and indignation; it was precisely because Chu Ming was here that he felt uneasy!

However, his resistance was easily suppressed by the older man, who simply picked him up and carried him back.

Amidst the wind and snow, only Conan's faint protest echoed across the snow-covered ground.

Chapter 101 Run quickly

The steam from the hot tea rose up, contrasting with the silvery white outside, making the room feel exceptionally warm.

The group sat at the table, drinking tea and chatting.

"Currently, only Shadow Mage and Group Leader Escape King are missing."

"So what do we do now? Wait for them?"

"Does anyone know the group owner's phone number? We can just call and ask."

Huang Yi walked to the telephone: "I know his number, I'll call him."

"Beep-beep-beep-"

The call didn't go through; all I heard was the voice of an answering machine.

"It seems he's already set off, probably delayed on the road due to the heavy snow. In that case, let's have some fun on our own until he arrives."

Araki led his men to prepare dinner, while Sonoko led Chu Ming and the others upstairs to set up the rooms.

Standing on the second-floor balcony, Sonoko sighed deeply: "What the hell? How could this happen? My dream of love is shattered, sob sob sob."

But she quickly cheered up again: "It's okay, luckily Sonoko already has a Prince Charming she's never met! If you miss one, there's always another!"

"..." You have so many Prince Charmings.

During dinner, everyone was chatting and suddenly started talking about their favorite magician.

Everyone suggested their favorite magicians, but Sonoko, with a lovesick look on her face, said, "My favorite is, of course, the recently famous Phantom Thief Kid!"

"But isn't he a thief...?"

"I don't care, he's the most amazing magician in my heart, no one can compare to him! He's my ultimate male god!"

……

Chu Ming rested his chin on his hand, wondering if he would still be able to say that when he saw Kid's true face, which turned out to be exactly the same as Shinichi Kudo.

Chu Ming's gaze swept over Doi Takaki, who was showing a smug smile as he watched him express his adoration for Sonoko.

After the meal, everyone wanted to contact the group leader again, but they couldn't get through on the phone.

Suddenly Chu Ming stood up, and Xiao Lan turned her head as if she had heard something.

"I think I heard Conan's voice." Chu Ming stared at the doorway.

Xiaolan nodded: "I also heard someone calling me..."

Yuanzi was somewhat dismissive: "Where would there be anyone in this desolate wilderness? It must be the sound of the wind outside. You must have misheard."

"No, I need to go out and take a look."

Xiaolan frowned and hurriedly opened the door to go and see.

Upon opening the door, one sees Conan lying collapsed at the entrance.

"Lan, run! It's dangerous! Get out of here quickly!"

Conan struggled to open his eyes and saw Ran's worried face. He used all his strength to say those words.

He already had a fever, and after running through the fire, his mind was even more muddled. His worry for Xiaolan overshadowed his awareness of his own body. When he saw that Xiaolan was safe, the panic in his heart gradually subsided, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Chu Ming picked him up and said, "Let him rest in my room first. He's burning up; he must have a fever. Does anyone have any fever reducers?"

"I brought it, I'll go back and get it." Doi Takaki raised his hand, smiling憨厚ly, "I always carry it with me."

"Is this little brother worried about you? He's got a fever but still clings to you," Tanaka Kikue said with a smile.

Ran looked grave as she wiped Conan's sweat and said, "When Conan came in just now, he told me to run away, to get out of this place. But he passed out right after he said that. We'll only know the details when he wakes up."

Chu Ming frowned. "Xiao Lan, you and Yuanzi stay here. I'll go out and check." He glanced at the group of people around him, then said in a low voice, "If anything happens, just use your karate to deal with them."

Thinking of Chu Ming's fighting prowess, Xiao Lan nodded: "Okay, I understand. Brother Chu Ming, you should be careful too."

Chu Ming greeted everyone and then went out the door.

It was indeed a desolate wilderness, with no streetlights on the mountain road. Relying on his excellent night vision, Chu Ming walked straight ahead.

Suddenly, the phone rang; it was Kogoro Mouri.

"Chu Ming, how are Ran and the others now? Conan just ran over there, have you seen that kid?"

Kogoro Mouri has already called the Metropolitan Police Department, but because the only suspension bridge was burned, they have to climb up from the bottom of the mountain. The snow on the mountain has not melted, and the danger level is too high. Using a helicopter to fly at low altitude could very likely cause it to crash into power lines or trees, so they can't dispatch the police until at least tomorrow morning.

Adding to her anxiety, she suddenly remembered that Chu Ming seemed to have a cell phone with him, so she quickly made a call to inquire about the situation.

"Uncle Mori, Conan just fainted at the door with a fever. Ran took him inside and settled him in. He's taken fever reducer now. He only managed to say one thing: 'There's danger, leave quickly.' I came out to see what happened. Uncle, what's wrong? Why did Conan suddenly come back?"

Kogoro Mouri told Chu Ming about the radio broadcast they received on their way back, and solemnly warned, "You be careful too. Inspector Megure said he can't go out on duty until tomorrow, so be careful tonight."

At this moment, Chu Ming also walked to the edge of the suspension bridge. The fire was almost extinguished, and a burnt smell lingered in the air. He frowned and stared at the darkness in the center of the valley.

Generally speaking, mobile phones cannot be used in such remote mountains, but the fact that the organization's signal towers are even located in such remote forests shows that the organization has a huge influence. But why are there only a few core members like cats and dogs in his previous life and now?

Or is what he's seeing only the tip of the iceberg of the organization?

Try to find some time to ask Vodka about it; Gin is too tight-lipped, I doubt I can get any information out of him.

Chapter 102 Kiddgan

"They were murdered? The suspension bridge was burned down?"

When Chu Ming returned, he found that he couldn't get through to the group leader on the phone. The group had already decided on the acting group leader using magic tricks, and the food was ready.

As everyone was discussing why Shadow Mage and Escape King hadn't arrived yet, Chu Ming pushed open the door and told them about Shadow Mage's death and the destruction of the suspension bridge.

"Uncle Mori just called me and said that Conan came back because he heard the radio on their way back."

“Right…” Conan had somehow gotten down from the railing, “Was the group admin named Nishiyama Tsutomu? The broadcast said he was murdered at home, and there was a message on his computer saying, ‘One has been taken care of—Shadow Mage.’”

Chu Ming nodded. He had sensed a magnetic field flowing in the backyard as soon as he entered the house. He guessed that Bin Yeli was already dead and it was time to harvest him.

"Where is Mr. Hama? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

“Right, let’s tell him about this right away. He’s had a conflict with Shadow Mage before.”

A large group of people arrived on the second floor. The spacious room was empty. Conan sensed something was wrong when he saw the open window and quickly went to look down.

Fortunately, no bodies were found below the balcony, so it seems no one fell.

Just as he was secretly relieved, Xiaolan raised her hand tremblingly: "Look over there."

In the middle of the pristine white snow, a black figure lies supine, surrounded by shimmering crystals that flow gently around him, creating a dreamlike scene against the backdrop of the snow and moonlight.

Of course, this is Chu Ming's perspective. To others, it's just a corpse lying in the middle of the snow, with no trace left around it.

Doi Takaki was the first to rush downstairs, leaving a trail of footprints in the snow. As he helped Hama Riya up, he yelled at the others behind him, "Don't come any closer! Don't disturb the scene! He's... beyond saving!"

Everyone stopped and looked at the corpse in front of them. Chu Ming absorbed the slowly flowing magnetic field and ignored the conversation of the others.

He mentally poked the system: "San San, what's going on? I didn't absorb it, so why is the magnetic field flowing over on its own?"

"Ding—The host has absorbed over a hundred magnetic fields, and the magnetic fields will automatically be attracted here."

And such good things?

"What is the adsorption distance? Can it be manually expanded? I don't need much, this small island of Japan is enough. That way, I can earn money even while lying down."

"Ding—The maximum range can encompass the entire Earth."

! ! ! !

"Get me one!"

Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Mr. Binye, otherwise, given the strange pleasure in Chu Ming's eyes, they would have all thought he was the murderer.

"Ding—99999999999999999999999 thousand Gai points are required. Host does not have enough points."

You could have just taken it, but you gave me an excuse instead. I'm so touched.

--Pooh!

Don't show me goals that I can't achieve in my lifetime next time!

"Host, after careful calculation, 1703 believes that this goal is achievable within his lifetime in the world of Detective Conan."

"..." Don't mistake jokes for reality. Is it true that one year of Conan's studies is actually 365 years?

"—So, this case is indeed a crime that a person without wings could not commit; it is an impossible crime."

When Chu Ming came to his senses, he happened to hear Conan making his conclusion.

"Wings? Phantom Thief Kid?"

Everyone turned to look at Chu Ming, who had suddenly spoken up, especially Doi Takaki, who had been suddenly slapped in the face—or rather, Phantom Thief Kid.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Chu Ming blinked. He hadn't heard what everyone was talking about before and thought he had said the wrong thing.

"What's wrong? I heard you guys talking about someone with wings. Isn't that Phantom Thief Kid? I saw his picture in the newspaper before." Chu Ming gestured with his hands on his back. "Doesn't he have hang gliders on his back? Doesn't that count as wings?"

"What?! Kidd would never be that kind of person!!!! You, Chu Ming, don't think like that~!" Sonoko was the first to jump out. Her words were initially harsh, but when she saw that it was Chu Ming, her tone softened unconsciously.
