Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

Just like the teacher in kindergarten who kept repeating those poems and songs to you... and the little black boy with a wronged look on his face was just like you.

The scene was very strange.

"..."

I'm so hungry.

……

"Several operations we've organized recently have been thwarted by a mysterious sniper, resulting in the deaths of many casualties... Do you have any information?"

In the car.

Gin asked Sano.

"Sniper?"

Sano hadn't paid much attention at first, but after hearing such a peculiar term, he suddenly became interested, raised an eyebrow, and looked away from his phone.

"Hmm, but it shouldn't be that ghost from the FBI."

After thinking for a moment, Gin added, "That guy's skills aren't that weak."

"Oh?"

Sano raised an eyebrow again and said, "What, from what Lord Gin is saying, do you mean that as long as this guy's skills are high enough, you would believe that he might be a ghost? Don't you think he's dead?"

Gin remained silent for a moment.

Nothing is absolute; it's always good to be cautious.

"Yeah."

Sano pursed his lips and didn't pursue the topic any further.

“There are thousands of cases, big and small, in Tokyo every day. I do have the identity of a detective, but that doesn’t mean that every case will go through my hands.”

"...Then forget it."

Gin glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Sano's phone screen, which was still on.

This is... a diagram of a crow's vocal cords?

"……you."

Gin couldn't help but turn around in surprise.

After being met with Sano's questioning gaze, Gin hesitated for a moment before asking first, "When did you start to become interested in... the field of biology?"

"what?"

Sano was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his phone again.

After roughly realizing what Gin meant, Sano replied somewhat speechlessly, "Nothing... I'm not interested in biology, I just wanted to study how to make crows talk."

Gin: "..."

Vodka: "..."

This guy.

Has the illness flared up again?

What the hell is that crow talking in?!

They even made the crows talk.

Why not just figure out how to make your Porsche fly?

The Gin duo couldn't understand Sano's line of thinking and felt deeply shocked.

...Originally, Gin had some doubts about whether Sano had really been influenced by someone and was starting to plan to move into the field of "scientific research," officially entering the form of a true all-around hexagonal warrior who was proficient in both academics and martial arts.

But then Gin thought about Sano's exam results... and wondered what if that were really the case.

That would probably just be a waste of effort...

Chapters 580 and 583: The acrobatics were quite good.

of course.

It's also possible that Sano, despite his poor academic performance, is a natural talent in this area.

Although Gin believes that such a possibility is extremely slim.

...But that's not important now, because even if it really could be like that.

If we only consider Sano's purpose, Gin can confidently say that this is a complete waste of time!

Gin truly couldn't understand why Sano would have such thoughts.

Is it simply because it's fun, or...?

This guy seems too lonely all by himself... That shouldn't be possible.

After all, let's set aside whether Sano is that kind of person or not.

Even so, they had just adopted a little girl not long ago, so logically speaking...

That shouldn't be the case.

After a long silence, Gin continued to ask Sano.

Why did I suddenly decide to study...this?

"Hey?"

Sano scratched his face: "If you ask why... there's no particular reason, I just wanted to give it a try, so I did."

Gin: "..."

I still can't understand it.

Forget it.

"Just be careful not to let it interfere with important business."

Gin offered a tactful reminder: enjoy yourself in moderation, and don't harm your health...

"I know, I know."

Sano gave a casual reply.

Seeing this, Gin didn't say anything more... After all, he couldn't interfere in his subordinates' private lives unless it affected business.

such as.

There's a battle going on here, and Sano's still glued to his phone looking at structural diagrams and stuff...

Even so, Gin still didn't think it was a big problem—holding a gun in one hand and a phone in the other, he multitasked with research and fighting at the same time.

It seems that this approach might not be inapplicable to Sano either?

Sano didn't notice Gin's unusual behavior... or even if he had.

They wouldn't care.

Because Sano focused all his attention on his "research".

Based on what Sano knows.

Although crows are not as good as parrots, they can indeed produce human syllables.

There have been real-world examples of this.

There are absolutely no examples of horses, dogs, or spiders... and judging from the structural diagram of the throat, it is not possible for them to produce human syllables.

Or rather, it is possible to send, but only a very small portion of them can be sent.

Crows might actually talk...

In addition, Sano has already explored the internal structure of several of his living equipment through spider venom invasion—and found that they were not much different from those of normal animals, meaning that possibility has been eliminated.

A little disappointed.

Just as Sano was about to close his phone, his thoughts suddenly stalled and took a different turn.

anyway.

What are a cat's vocal cords like?

Sano then searched for the structure of a cat's vocal cords and, after a series of comparisons...

An answer was reached.

So, it seems that cats can also talk?

After thoughtfully closing his phone, Sano looked out the window.

Sano didn't know if the animals in this world were different from those in his previous life, but since it was a world of science fiction... it should be possible, right?

I'll give it a try later.

"Ok?"

While waiting at a red light at an intersection, Vodka looked at a tall tower in the distance and remarked, "That tower looks like it's already finished."

"Is this a new work from the Suzuki family?"

Gin glanced at the tower and said, "It seems to be the tallest tower in the area recently, and also the most suitable place to use as a sniping spot."

"That's a commercial building, and it just opened. Tickets are hard to come by for non-related people. From any perspective, it's not a suitable place to snipe."

Vodka had barely managed to retort when he was met with a pair of cold stares.

"...However, if it's Rye, it should be easy to get a ticket to enter this tower, since he has a good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Suzuki family."

Vodka quickly changed the subject, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Don't say anything unnecessary."

Gin gave him another cold look—while Sano was in the state of being rye, mentioning his true identity and interpersonal relationships could potentially expose him.

Therefore, this is undoubtedly a very stupid move.

Let alone Gin's opinion that it's best not to expose anyone, even from Sano's own perspective... if Vodka's words lead to exposure...
