Conan Rick's Investigator

After Kudo Yusaku's reminder, Qin Zhibo finally remembered.

The land in that area was a completely different gray color from the rest of the forest, and not a single plant grew on it.

But at that time, Qin Zhibo only thought that the military or Mi-Go had made special treatment of the ground to facilitate the mining of ore.

Qin Zhibo frowned, "You mean, that place has lost its color?"

Kudo Yusaku nodded and said seriously, "You understand quickly. That's probably what I mean..."

"There was once a forest ranger in Vesbania who claimed to have discovered 'living colors' in the forest, and then..."

"Of course, I won't go into detail about these past events. They've already been described clearly in my work, 'The Colors of the Starry Sky.'"

Kudo Yusaku was silent for a few seconds, then spoke deeply.

"But what I'm confused about now is... If the organization behind you is trying to prevent some 'bad truth' from being leaked to the public, why did you allow me to create peacefully for so many years?"

"Isn't the book I wrote the biggest leak of those terrible truths?"

Kudo Yusaku's sudden change of subject shocked Qin Zhibo under the mask.

Kudo Yusaku has found his highlight!

Whether it is "Whisper in the Dark", "The Color of the Starry Sky" or "Witch's Banquet", they are all created based on sensitive themes without exception.

If the secret organization that Qin Zhibo mentioned really existed, Kudo Yusaku would not have used this type of subject matter, and he would not have continued to create for so many years and even become a world-famous writer.

Qin Zhibo's scalp tightened, and he suddenly realized the loophole in his previous logical arrangement.

Even though my previous description of the organization was very rigorous and realistic, it was completely the official rules of the py Nine Angels organization.

But in fact, it is precisely because of the existence of the Nine Angels Organization that the various strange and bizarre things in the original world will not be exposed all the time. The agents will deal with the matter quickly to reduce the impact.

If the original world is considered a high-magic world, this world is at most a medium-magic world.

However, in this world, all kinds of strange and bizarre things can be publicized, and continue to be discovered by Kudo Yusaku, and used as prototypes to create his own works.

This is the biggest logical flaw!

Seeing Qin Zhibo didn't say anything, Kudo Yusaku smiled.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this to prove anything. In fact, this just suddenly occurred to me before we took action last night..."

Kudo Yusaku turned around and continued to put his hands on the edge of the khaki low wall. "And I believe that you are probably good people for standing up in this matter."

"As for your concealment of your identities, you must have your own reasons."

Kudo Yusaku spoke in a relaxed and friendly tone, as if he didn't care whether the organization existed or not, nor did he want to delve too deeply into it.

But when Qin Zhibo looked at Kudo Yusaku in front of him, he felt a little conflicted.

His and Conan's primary goal is to return to the original world, and their secondary goal is to avoid creating too much chaos in this world and affecting the development of the world line.

But according to the current situation

The development of the game has obviously changed the world line beyond what was initially imagined.

Everyone knows the existence of alien races, whether they should know or not.

Ran Mouri and Fujiko Mine had their bodies swapped.

And there is the upcoming decisive battle with the Mi-Go army.

These are the consequences of drastically changing the world line. Although they and Conan were not the initiators of all this, they could not just let the situation develop.

Now it is empty talk to say that you don’t want to change the world line.

Moreover, even if he could defeat Mi-Go in the decisive battle, Qin Zhibo had no idea how to return to the original world. He only knew that this would require the use of Vesbania ore.

Do you believe that catching a "surrendered" Mi-Go can bring you and Conan back?

No.

After the experience of working with R-Clock, Qin Zhibo believes that working with Mi-Go is not a good idea, especially a collaboration that does not allow one to take the initiative.

What if Mi-Go teleports himself and Conan directly back to the alien nest?

Because of this, Qin Zhibo is not very optimistic about letting Mi Go get back the heads of Mao Li Ran and Mine Fujiko.

If Mao Lilan and Mine Fujiko cannot be exchanged through surgery, I will have to use the second method...

But if it is the second method, the changes to the world line will be greater.

Because by then, you will have to reveal your identity as a "time traveler"!

Qin Zhibo pondered silently for a while. Instead of revealing his identity in front of many people, it would be better to reveal his identity only to the man in this world who was closest to the "truth" and possessed the characteristics of an investigator.

Thinking in his mind, Qin Zhibo silently raised his hand towards his mask.

Kudo Yusaku looked at the scenery in the distance, and in his heart he was looking forward to what the other party would say to him next.

Is he an investigator who is just as "curious" about strange events as he is?

Or continue to insist that there is an organization behind this?

But at this moment, he caught a glimpse of the man next to him raising his hand and slowly taking off the mask on his face.

Kudo Yusaku turned his upper body to the side, and as the mask was removed, the expression on his face gradually changed from just confusion in his eyes to a look of shock on his whole face.

His mouth was slightly open.

Under the unveiled golden mask, it turned out to be...

"It's you?!"

Kudo Yusaku looked at the man in front of him, his eyes slightly widened, and he did not hide the surprise on his face at all.

He never imagined that the person who had been with him in a mysterious identity for the past two days was actually an acquaintance of his, and his reasoning about why the other party wore a mask was exactly the same as his initial suspicion.

"Vince?"

"Aren't you in America? Why are you suddenly..."

Kudo Yusaku stopped talking abruptly, because he himself had just flown in from the United States yesterday and had no right to criticize others.

But he couldn't imagine why an American FBI agent, his shooting coach when he was training in Hawaii, came all the way here to care about the rise of an alien race that had nothing to do with him?

Seeing Kudo Yusaku's reaction, Qin Zhibo also understood that he did have an identity in this world, and his identity should be similar to the "original owner" in the original world.

Qin Zhibo shook his head and denied it, "I'm not Vince Qin, at least not the 'Vince Qin' you think I am."

"What does this mean?" Kudo Yusaku showed a rare look of doubt on his face.

Qin Zhibo: "I am Vince Qin from another world. To put it more scientifically, I come from a parallel world."

"Parallel... world..."

Kudo Yusaku took a long breath. He had been investigating in this world for so many years and had written so many works based on strange events, but this was the first time he heard of a parallel world.

It's not that he didn't understand the concept, but it was the first time

I heard that parallel worlds also exist in reality.

It was the same confusion and shock as when I first saw the Is people and their library.

But after all, he was someone who had experienced big scenes. Kudo Yusaku only pondered it for a few seconds before he calmed down and his facial expression returned to a relatively calm state.

"So, you're not the 'Vince Chin' of this world, but the 'Vince Chin' of a parallel world?"

"Yes."

Qin Zhibo nodded and casually placed his left hand on the edge of the low wall.

When communicating with the Kudo Yusaku in this world, there is no need to pay attention to any body movements or personal habits, because he is not the Vince Qin he is familiar with. Even if there are obvious differences, they can be understood.

"Then how did you come to this world?" Kudo Yusaku asked again.

Qin Zhibo explained without reservation: "Before, at Professor Agasa's house, I encountered a Mi-Go that came to steal something. When the Mi-Go tried to teleport away, it mistakenly teleported me to this world with it..."

"At least that's what I guess."

"Dr. Agasa's house?" Kudo Yusaku frowned and raised his chin in confusion. "So, in your original world, you were in Japan? And you knew Dr. Agasa?"

Qin Zhibo: "Yes."

Kudo Yusaku: “…”

In Kudo Yusaku's own understanding, although Vince Qin is a mixed-race and is said to have distant relatives in Japan, they have not been in contact for a long time.

Going to Japan made no sense, because Vince Qin had a job with the FBI in New York, USA, and had no time to wander around.

Could it be... because of investigating Conan's case?

When they were spending time together in private last night, Kudo Yusaku naturally discussed the recent situation with his son, which of course included the investigation into the Black Organization.

Conan did not hide it and said that he had met with FBI agents, and that these FBI agents came to Japan to investigate the Black Organization.

In fact, there is no way to hide it, because in order to help Shuichi Akai, who faked his death, to conceal his identity, Conan asked Kudo Yukiko to help him disguise himself and use the alias "Okiya Subaru".

When Kudo Yusaku thinks about this now, he suddenly seems to understand why "Vince Qin" from another world would appear in the house of Dr. Agasa, who has nothing to do with him.

But if that's the case...

"Could that child beside you be...?!"

Kudo Yusaku's sudden realization was also within Qin Zhibo's expectations.

After all, with this size and cleverness, even if I say he is his own son, I'm afraid Kudo Yusaku won't believe it.

"You're right, Conan was teleported here with me."

Kudo Yusaku's eyes changed and he began to think with a complicated expression.

No wonder the child, although silent, had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

It turned out to be his own son!

Of course, this statement is not entirely correct, because it is a parallel world, Conan must have his own biological father.

In other words, the child looks like his son, but he is not his son.

Just like the man in front of me, he looks like "Vince Qin", but he is not.

Kudo Yusaku seemed to have confirmed his idea and nodded gently, then continued, "So you have been actively dealing with the Mi-Go problem in order to find a way to return to your original world?"

"That's right." Qin Zhibo wiped the dust off his fingers. "But this matter is gradually getting out of control. Given the current situation, I must reveal my identity to you."

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

"Of course, I chose to tell you in order to keep the impact within a certain range, understand?"

Kudo Yusaku nodded. He understood that the meaning was not to tell this to others.

Kudo Yusaku thought for a few seconds, then looked up and asked, "Then what do you

The secret organization you mentioned is actually…"

Qin Zhibo explained: "It actually exists, but it only exists in the world I live in."

"In my world, I joined that organization, resigned from the FBI, and opened a detective agency in Japan."

"Hmm..." Kudo Yusaku pondered in his mind and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Since you have already left the FBI, why did you meet Conan?

But when he heard the word "detective agency", Kudo Yusaku suddenly understood.

"So, do these...strange things also exist in your world?"

Qin Zhibo nodded calmly, "It does exist, and it's a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times more terrifying than this world."

The magnification increased gradually, and Kudo Yusaku's eyes gradually deepened.

No wonder this man always looks like a calm and composed master. Of course, he has witnessed great terrors, so he doesn't care about the "small fish and shrimp" at this time.

But the man's words piqued Kudo Yusaku's curiosity again, and he asked, "What kind of horror is it?"

Qin Zhibo took a step forward and whispered in a low voice.

"Mr. Kudo, have you ever seen a god?"

"God..."

This is a word that seems simple but is actually extremely complex.

Since the birth of human civilization, "God" has become a word that can never be separated from human history.

Its earliest origin is a symbolic explanation made by ancient humans for natural phenomena that were beyond their understanding.
