Survival Manual of the Science Fiction World

Conan couldn't reach Chu Ming's hand at all, so he could only turn his head away angrily. Anyway, he was Edogawa Conan now, and he could deal with the future later!

What does what Conan does have to do with Shinichi Kudo?

Besides, he was doing it to solve the case!

Yes, it's all for solving the case!

Seeing Conan stride heavily and huff as he walked into the cave, Chu Ming thought for a moment and then followed him.

Just like Chu Ming had done, Conan also discovered that there was a cave behind the Buddhist shrine.

However, this cave had no stairs; you had to hold onto the cave wall and slowly walk down.

When they reached the end, the three were shocked to find that Uehara Yasuo, who had escaped earlier, had committed suicide with a gun at the end.

Chu Ming and Conan squatted down beside the corpse and examined it carefully. Chu Ming even turned the corpse over a few times. Only Mikami Reirin hid behind Conan in fear.

“I think he must have known he had nowhere to escape, so he committed suicide.” Kinoshita Goro’s voice suddenly came from behind. “I saw you going into the cave and I was a little worried, so I followed you. Let’s go back.”

Mikami Reirin nodded obediently: "Mmm!"

Conan shielded her behind him, saying, "Wait, this person didn't commit suicide at all."

Chu Ming pulled Conan behind him: "That's right, the wound on his right temple is bigger than the one on his left. This proves that the bullet entered from the left. But he was holding the gun with his right hand. Is he crazy to fire from the left?"

Kinoshita Goro revealed a sinister smile as he walked forward step by step until he bent down and picked up the pistol from Uehara's hand.

He raised his gun and aimed it at Chu Ming: "If you have someone to blame, blame yourselves. I—"

Chu Ming didn't want to hear him ramble on: "Go ahead and shoot. I bet there aren't any bullets in your gun."

Opening his palm, Chu Ming saw four bullets.

Kinoshita Goro repeatedly pulled the trigger, but there was no response.

"How could this be! This is impossible!"

"Looks like it's my turn now?" Chu Ming threw away the bullet, rushed forward, and kicked Kinoshita Goro away, sending him crashing into the stone wall.

"boom--"

The entire cave suddenly began to shake.

"Am I that strong? I kicked the cave down with one kick?"

Chu Ming lifted his foot to look, then looked at the cave where rocks were already falling down with a rustling sound, looking completely bewildered. Could it be that these two magnetic fields had turned him into a Saiyan as well?

"Brother Chu Ming, hurry, let's go."

Conan, dragging Kinoshita Goro by the leg, laboriously pulled him to the cave entrance: "There's a raft here, quick, let's use this to get out."

Chu Ming took Kinoshita Goro from his hands and casually wrapped the rope around him and tied it to the raft.

The three of them squeezed together on the small raft with difficulty. Only Kinoshita Goro's head was above water, while his body floated up and down in the water.

"There's a ship over there!" Mikami Reirin shouted, pointing to a high-end-looking ship in front of her.

A ship? Chu Ming looked up, could this be—

—Is it an organized ship?

No way! If Conan gets on board, this ship will probably be destroyed!

Just as Chu Ming was about to say something, Mikami Reirin shouted loudly towards the ship over there.

A figure appeared at the bow of the ship—Yusuke Matsutake, also known as Vermouth.

Conan was overjoyed; it was truly a case of finding something without even looking for it!

He quickly imitated Mikami Rinrin, shouting in his childish voice, "Help! Can the uncle over there save us?!"

Climbing onto the bed using the rope ladder lowered from the ship, Conan immediately ran over: "It's you, Uncle! You saved me again!"

Yusuke Matsutake still wore a faint smile, looking gentle and refined. He was speaking with a faint smile.

"Little friend, it seems like you're in danger every time I see you. How can you be so careless?"

Conan scratched his head: "Hehe, I like adventure~ I want to be a great detective when I grow up~"

Yusuke Matsutake chuckled softly, "That's great."

Then he turned and shouted towards the cabin: "Don't go yet, go to Shikishima and take these children and these two gentlemen back."

Conan blinked his cute eyes and said, "Uncle, you're so nice! What are you doing here on Shikijima?"

"We were just passing by when our boat's engine had a problem, so we went to Shikijima for some help."

"Oh, really? So Uncle's leaving now? I heard there's treasure on Shikijima, Uncle, aren't you going to go look for it?"

"Uncle has other jobs, and the treasure is just a pipe dream."

"Oh, I see—" Conan drawled, taking advantage of his mischievous nature, and swung his short legs, ready to run into the cabin: "Uncle, your ship is so cool, I want to go take a look~"

Yusuke Matsutake, who was prepared, grabbed him and said, "No, little one, this ship belongs to the group and contains a lot of confidential documents. You can't go there."

Chu Ming looked at Conan, whose eyes were darting around, and sighed deeply in his heart.

If this Yusuke Matsuchi hadn't been Vermouth in disguise, Conan's actions would have been suicidal if he had been a member of any other organization...

What happened to not being reckless?

—The following is the main text—

On their way to Shikijima, they saw Kogoro Mouri and his crew sailing towards them.

Mikami Reirin stood at the bow of the ship and waved in that direction: "Daddy, I'm here, we're here~"

Soon, the two ships gradually approached each other.

"Oh, sir, we meet again!" Ran looked at Yusuke Matsutake with a delighted expression.

Looking at the still lively and spirited girl in front of him, Yusuke Matsutake couldn't help but show a loving gaze.

“It’s alright. Miss Ran was also very brave and stayed with me the whole time that day, wasn’t she?” Yusuke Matsutake’s focused gaze remained fixed on Ran.

Conan couldn't understand what was going on. Yusuke Matsutake's gaze was gentle, as if he wanted to take in the girl in front of him.

Xiaolan felt a little embarrassed by the focused gaze, and her face turned slightly red.

This is this...

This scoundrel is trying to seduce my Xiaolan?!

Conan squeezed next to Ran, managing to squeeze out a sob: "Ran-neechan, I'm so scared! The cave suddenly collapsed, waaaaah..."

Ran smiled apologetically at Yusuke Matsutake, then knelt down to comfort Conan.

Mikami Reirin, standing to the side, pouted angrily: "No wonder Conan has never liked me, it turns out he likes women much older than him!"

Under Conan's tantrum, Ran and Yusuke Matsutake didn't have time to say much before they parted ways.

Chu Ming looked at Conan with suspicion. Something was wrong with this kid. Why did he let go of the opportunity to find out the truth so easily this time?

Noticing Chu Ming's gaze, Conan sadly crouched down on the ground, cupping his face in his hands.

“I also want to attach tracking devices and listening devices, but if they are discovered, that organization will suspect everyone I’ve been in contact with today, which could potentially endanger that village…”

He sighed deeply. Knowing the clue was right in front of him, yet having to watch it go was too cruel for a detective...

Chu Ming squatted down and exaggeratedly patted Conan's head: "My goodness, Conan is so sensible! You've finally learned to be careful with your words and actions. Dad is so proud!"

Conan silently removed Chu Ming's hand, still sullen: "Sigh—"

"Okay, don't be sad. Ran just said Sonoko called and invited her to go to Izu for three days and two nights. Do you want to go?"

Conan turned his head dejectedly: "I'm not in the mood..."

"I heard they're going to the beach~ You don't want to be the only one who doesn't see Ran in her swimsuit, do you? And there will definitely be a lot of guys trying to chat her up, after all, Ran is so pretty..."

As Chu Ming spoke, he glanced at Conan.

Conan knew that Chu Ming was teasing him and tried to ignore him, but the more he thought about it, the angrier and more frustrated he became.

He jumped up and stood in front of Ran, wiggling around: "Ran-neechan~ Are you and Sonoko-neechan going to Izu to play? I want to go too! I want to go out and play too~"

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri exclaimed, "Yes, yes, Ran, you should take him with you too. I don't want to be home alone with a little brat for so long."

"Okay, Dad, don't drink too much at home. Why don't you go have some fun, Brother Chuming? I heard there's a fireworks show in Izu recently."

Chu Ming nodded and agreed to meet at the Mouri Detective Agency the next morning.

However, after parting ways with Xiaolan and the others, Chu Ming did not go home.
