Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

My great mood has been completely ruined.

After calming himself down, Sano's face gradually returned to normal.

Looking at the silent Xiao Hei beside him, Sano didn't say anything.

"Find out who did it."

After saying that, Sano left.

"Yes……"

After watching Sano leave, this special forces member kept regretting that he shouldn't have come along.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though I wasn't the culprit, I was still afraid of being implicated and blamed.

Then he turned to look at the little black dog next to him and reached out to pat its head.

"Don't be too sad, the boss will avenge you."

……

Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Everything proceeded as usual during this period. Sano continued to take on missions, complete missions, and go home to sleep.

Get the quests, complete the quests, then go home and sleep.

This is like the life of an ordinary office worker.

Conan, on the other hand, continued to perform steadily.

It remains a case every day, randomly taking away at least one, and at most an unlimited number, innocent passersby.

"...Still no news?"

In a bar's second-floor office, Sano, dressed in a black vest without his special attack suit, is seen.

He was sitting on the sofa, looking at the silent blond-haired man and his mistress.

Black Reaper is a corrupt organization that has branched out into multiple sub-organizations, either upwards or downwards.

All-Access, Stray Animal Rescue Center, Armed Detective Agency.

Outside of the Black Reaper's stronghold, these places all have legitimate venues.

The Armed Detective Agency is located in this bar.

Generally speaking, at least three or four members of the special forces would gather here every day.

However, this is Sano's first time here.

The blond-haired man furtively raised his eyes to peek at Sano, and hesitantly replied, "Boss, there are just too few security cameras around there, and we can't pinpoint the exact time. We've tried a wide-ranging search, but it's been too difficult. We've managed to find just one, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack..."

Sano looked up and met the gaze of the blond-haired man, his eyes cold.

Did I ask you that?

Yellow Hair: "..."

Damn it, I've walked right into their trap.

Just as Huang Mao was bracing himself for a severe scolding, or even a few slaps, the mistress beside him quickly came to his rescue and changed the subject.

"Boss, I've found everything you asked me to find, as much as I can."

Sano didn't reply. He stared at the blond-haired man for a few seconds before looking at Xiao San.

The mistress immediately understood and turned on the computer on the desk.

Sano got up and went to the computer, watching as Xiao San moved the mouse and clicked on a website.

The website is filled with videos... but not those kinds of videos, of course.

"This is it."

After some maneuvering, the mistress clicked on one of the videos.

In the picture, the white Ragdoll cat's eyes are filled with fear and anger.

"I compared the actions in the video with the condition of the cat, and it's unlikely that the two cats just look alike. Besides, the video was only posted a little over a day later than that day."

“I tried to contact the person who posted the video, but they were very wary… or rather, they didn’t do anything at all and I didn’t get any response.”

The blond-haired man next to him was still a little confused as he watched the mistress explain the situation to Sano.

"Ah."

Sano confirmed that there were no problems and then wrote down the website address.

"You don't need to worry about the rest; I'll handle it myself."

"what?"

The blond-haired guy asked instinctively, "Boss, you're going to investigate alone?"

"Otherwise, if you can't be relied on, who else can you rely on if not me?"

Sano's rhetorical question immediately silenced the blond-haired guy.

It wasn't until Sano left that the blond-haired man started to have doubts.

"When it comes to fighting, I admit the boss is unbeatable, but when it comes to this kind of detective work..."

The blond-haired man shook his head and sighed, "No matter how you look at it, it doesn't really match."

"It's not like you hitched a ride yourself."

The mistress rolled her eyes and gave the blond-haired man a disdainful look: "Just because you have a detective agency name doesn't mean you really are a detective."

"...I never said I could do it."

Yellow Hair scratched his head: "I just think the boss..."

"If you think the boss is no good, then go and tell the boss!"

The mistress glared at him and said, "You can't even speak properly! If I hadn't reacted quickly, you would have been dead, considering what happened before!"

The blond-haired man blinked and grinned, "I didn't pay much attention because I knew you were there. Okay, don't be angry. I'll treat you to dinner later, something good, instant noodles with sausage, and two extra sausages!"

"..."

at the same time.

Sano arrived at the apartment building where Jodie had rented when she was working at Teitan High School.

"Big Black".

Crows flew overhead.

"Master, we've been watching him all day, and he's just about to come downstairs."

Sano nodded calmly, glanced around, and then went to a secluded corner.

Switching to a black cat disguise, and entering its form, it lazily lay down in front of the apartment entrance, waiting for its prey to take the bait, or as one might say...

It's like waiting for the hunter to take you away as prey.

A short while later, the guy whose arm Sano had broken earlier walked out of the apartment building.

Judging from the way his arm was hanging down.

Fifth Sister will probably never be able to use this hand again in her entire life.

Just as the person was about to leave, Sano immediately stretched out a big yawn.

This attracted the other person's attention.

"Ok?"

The man looked at Sano, then his eyes darted around before he reached into the bag he was carrying.

Finally, they pulled out a small cage and a cat treat.

"Mimi, come here, Mimi, there's something delicious here."

Faced with the man's "temptation," Sano did not hesitate at all and cooperated by walking into the cat cage.

"Aren't you afraid of people?"

The man closed the cat cage, feeling somewhat surprised, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

It might not be a stray cat, but rather someone's pet that ran away on its own.

It's just a kitten, what bad intentions could it possibly have?

With this thought in mind, the man, who had just gone out to hunt and whose prey had delivered itself to his doorstep, turned back to his apartment and made his way home.

"Don't worry, little kitty, I'll take good care of you."

After grinning at Sano in the cage, the man went back to his room to get his tools.

...It seems they've truly forgotten the pain once the wound has healed.

Sano didn't think that this guy would stop doing this kind of thing after losing an arm.

But it hasn't been that long since the last time, has it?

A pure black cat, didn't it remind this guy of anything?

After wagging its tail, Sano deactivated its black cat form.

The limitations of the black cat form are the same as those of the vest.

It is impossible to change under observable conditions.

But in addition to that, there is another restriction that I don't know whether it can be considered a restriction or not.

The size of the vest doesn't change much when switching, but the black cat form is different.

This is how a cat's size suddenly becomes a human's size.

However, if it's in a space that can't even fit a person, it becomes the size of a person.

What will be the result?

Sano didn't know because he had never tried it.
