Master of Noble Phantasm Outsider

Then, the content of the first page gave him a thunderbolt of an opening.

“………”

Conan Shan stared at the preface of the book.

"The magical continent... also known as Middle-earth, Middle-continent, or the borderland..."

Conan-san once again felt the indescribable pain in his balls.

"This strange world of stitching...how many things do I have to stitch?"

024 Lack of Magic

Conanshan quickly finished reading the books on the magical world that Liu Ming brought.

To be honest, some of the content in that book is quite shocking.

"God damn, the elf town of Rivendell..."

Rivendell and Mount Conan are indeed place names in a fantasy novel called "The Lord of the Rings" or "The Lord of the Rings".

Then, this place name appeared in this world.

Conan Shan now only hopes that there will be no "Dark Lord" or "Supreme Ring" in this world. Unfortunately, he has no way to understand more about it now.

"The content of this 'Guide to the Magical World' is too superficial. It is convenient for beginners and easy to understand, but it does not provide more in-depth and detailed information... Should I be worried?"

Conan Shan felt that he should be worrying too much. After all, based on the current situation, the Ministry of Magic in this world was much more useful and stronger than the one in a certain novel claiming to be a children's book.

Even if a big villain with dark power really appears, there should be a tall man to lead him.

"Let's ask later. It's useless to think too much now..."

Five days later, Liu Ming appeared again.

He returned with Conan Shan's identity certificate in the wizarding world, as well as a letter of admission from Hogwarts.

"Here, keep these things safe."

"Thank you."

Conanshan took the document handed over by Liu Ming with some excitement.

The ID cards in the magical world are similar to those in the human world, and on the surface they don’t seem to be anything special.

Jiuwu Mountain is famous for its wine.

As for the key point of the Hogwarts admission letter, to be honest it is a bit disappointing.

Conan-san originally thought that he would see the same admission notice content as in fan fiction, but what he received was completely different from what he imagined.

This letter of notification is very formal, and is similar to the format of universities in the human world.

After all, even the school emblem seems a little different from what I remember. There is no big H, nor those four famous animals. It is just ordinary and lacks a sense of immersion.

Conan-san wasn't disappointed, but he was still a little disappointed.

This won't count the words...

"Okay, bring your things with you, and I'll take you to the bank to open an account."

Liu Ming was still as decisive as ever and immediately took Conan Shan to their destination, the Magic Bank.

Conanshan initially thought about whether he should use some special magical method to reach his destination, but unfortunately Liu Ming just drove an ordinary car to an international bank in the city center.

"This bank has business connections with the wizarding world, and you can open a Gringotts account here directly." Liu Ming explained.

"There is no Gringotts in the human world?"

Conan thought there should be a place like "Diagon Alley", but this world doesn't seem to be like that.

"No." Liu Ming shook his head. "Although Gringotts has tried to open a branch in the human world, you did not agree."②

"Oh..."

Conan once again realized that the various settings of this parallel world were very different from the two-dimensional entertainment works he knew.

With the help of Liu Ming and the bank staff, Conan Shan quickly got his account at Gringotts.

Conan-san looked at the Gringotts account card in his hand, which looked no different from an ordinary bank card.

Lack of magical feeling...

Then they left the bank and went back.

"Conan-san, there are still more than two months before Hogwarts starts, but I suggest you go to the wizarding world early to make preparations. For example, you still have to buy the school uniforms and books you need for school locally. In addition, you have to take care of things in the human world as well."

Liu Ming said that his mission ended here, but considering that Conan Shan was unfamiliar with the magical world, he would apply for some additional help and support from the Ministry of Magic.

Conan-san thanked the other party for his attentiveness.

"But why does it feel so casual... Is it so easy to join the magic world? And I don't even have to show up in person to complete the formalities..."

All the experiences along the way gave Conanshan a subtle feeling.

"Anything?"

Liu Ming, who was driving the car, couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

"You may not believe it, but the procedures for confirming and proving your identity and registering your identity are actually quite strict. If it were before the great reform a century ago, it would have been very casual.

As long as you have the ability and means to enter the magic world, even if you are a vicious murderer in the human world, no one will stop you or even know about it. "

Conan-san was stunned.

"Identification didn't even exist before... I won't tell you anymore. When you go to Hogwarts, you will naturally learn about the history of magic."

Conan-san was now full of questions, but the members of the Ministry of Magic around him seemed not to want to continue the conversation, so he found it difficult to speak.

On the way home, the two of them chatted casually without talking about anything serious.

"Goodbye then."

Jiu Liuming sent Conanshan back home, then waved goodbye and left.

Four Conan-san watched the other party leave.

He didn't know whether he would meet this young man from the Ministry of Magic in the future. To be honest, he still didn't understand the other party's position in the Ministry of Magic.

The two of them never talked long enough, and there was also a lack of time and opportunity for in-depth conversation.

Conan the Umbrella is not the legendary social phobia - a social terrorist - he is just an ordinary time traveler, without the succubus-level communication skills that are required for the protagonist of a card-drawing mobile game.

Wu: "Anyway, let's go back and prepare."

There are a lot or a little things that Conan has to do.

First of all, since he was going to study at a magic school in the magical world, he had to return the rental unit where he lived now.

After the collection, you need to pack your luggage and, if possible, sell some furniture second-hand to supplement your funds for future operations.

Finally, I said goodbye to some acquaintances.

ｑAfter Conan Shan traveled through time, he has not met any of his original friends. As a time traveler, he has no intention of continuing friendships that do not belong to him, so just ignore them.

The high school that Qun originally attended was barely completed, but they sent him a graduation certificate anyway, so he didn't have to go to school in person.

:The problem lies with a good friend of the original body's parents.

The original body's parents were both from an orphanage and had no relatives, but they still had friends.

After the original body got into trouble, there was actually a best friend of his parents who had been taking care of him. During his hospitalization, the best friend took care of all the funeral arrangements for his parents.

When I was discharged from the hospital a few days ago, it was the friends of the original body’s parents who came to help.

If Conan-san suddenly disappears without a word, the other party might be anxiously looking for him everywhere, or even call the police directly, so we still have to notify them.

"Just find a suitable excuse. Well, just say that I'm going to study at a private university in another city, and then slowly cut off contact. However, that uncle..."

Conan-san has a puzzling question about the friend of his original parents, the man he always called uncle but didn't know his full name.

"On the day I was discharged from the hospital, when that uncle was helping me carry my luggage, we came into contact. Immediately, my gold finger reacted and generated a card representing a magician... So, what's so special about that man?"

025 Everyone has a secret

Conanshan found some time and called the uncle who had been taking care of him.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Conan-san would certainly not disappear in Changkong City without telling his uncle.

He made up an excuse, saying that he was going out to live in a big city. After all, he couldn't tell his uncle that he was actually going to study in a magic school in the wizarding world.

Although this uncle is a good man, he is not a blood relative after all, and Conan is not really familiar with him, so he has no intention of telling the truth.

Mainly because it's too troublesome to explain.

As for using the excuse of studying at a private university in another city, Conan-san had considered it, but if he did that, he would have to leave contact information and the address of the school in another city, which did not exist, so he would definitely be exposed.

So in the end, I could only say plainly that I didn't want to study anymore and wanted to go out and try my luck.

After hearing about this, the uncle surnamed Hong naturally persuaded the children left behind by his late friend to study hard and go to college even if they had to repeat a year, so that they could find a job in the future.

Conan-san knew this would happen, but he still insisted on his own opinion and finally managed to convince his uncle.

Uncle Hong knew that Conanshan might be leaving in a month, so he said he would find a time to have a meal together as a farewell.

Conan-san knew that this was something he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it.

The day of the dinner soon arrived.

Uncle Hong booked a nice hotel, which offers a buffet.

He came with his daughter.

Just like not knowing Uncle Hong’s full name, Conan-san also didn’t know the other party’s daughter’s full name. However, his original self had always followed his parents in calling the little girl, who was probably only thirteen or fourteen years old, Xiaoling, so it should be correct to continue calling her that now.

Uncle Hong is a slightly plump middle-aged man who looks a bit greasy, and his still jet-black hair seems a little sparse.

He looks like an ordinary civilian.

Conanshan didn't know what kind of job this uncle did. Although this uncle was a good friend of his original parents, they worked in different places. It was possible that he was a professional social cog in a company like he was in his previous life.

The other party’s daughter, Hong Xiaoling, was dressed a bit maturely and looked youthful and beautiful, giving off the feeling of a fashionable girl.

The father and daughter walked together, and those who didn't know them would not guess that they were related.

The original body was not familiar with this girl. They only met when their parents met and had no personal relationship.

Conan-san had no memory of seeing his uncle's wife, and didn't know whether they were divorced or had passed away, but such details were not important.

"Nanshan, since you have made up your mind, I won't say much. Anyway... have a safe trip."

Not long after sitting down at the reserved seat, Uncle Hong patted the shoulder of his best friend's child with emotion on his face.

"You said you were going to Haicheng, right? If you have any questions, you can contact me at any time. I will do my best to help you."

Conan-san could feel the other party's enthusiasm, and he could only put on a smile and nod in response.

The following conversation was just a bunch of small talk and caring greetings, with nothing worth mentioning.

Hong Xiaoling remained quiet most of the time and only spoke a few words occasionally.

"Can you give me that napkin over there?"

In the middle of the meal, Hong Xiaoling accidentally stained her fingers and turned to Conanshan for help.

Conan-san nodded and handed the tissue box next to him to the girl.

"Thank you. Thank you. "

When Hong Xiaoling took the tissue box, her fingertips touched Conanshan's.

Of course, modern girls would not react at all to this level of physical contact.

However, although Conan-san did not show any change on the surface, his reaction was very big in his heart.

"This……"

Conanshan looked at the new card that suddenly appeared in his soul in surprise.

There is no doubt that his golden finger reacted because of the accidental contact between him and the girl next to him.

Conan-san resisted the urge to frown and examined the latest golden card he had obtained.

The card features a pattern that has never appeared before: a circle with two dots surrounding a crescent moon with the gap pointing upwards.

"Isn't this pattern... the 'spiritual attribute' symbol of 'Slippery Future 1999'?"
