Conan Rick's Investigator

Last night, Qin Zhibo quietly placed the [Famous Detective's eavesdropping device] at the front door of Kudo's house, so that he could hear the movements of people entering and leaving Kudo's house.

In fact, the monitoring effect of the guard totem is better, but unfortunately it was used in the women's locker room of the gymnasium yesterday, and it has entered the 3-day CD.

Kudo Shinichi didn't go to school. Judging from his yawns, he must have gone back to sleep.

Qin Zhibo glanced at the newspaper report about the Teitan High School gymnasium case and then went back to his business.

Since he is tracking Kudo Shinichi, Qin Zhibo certainly needs a human skin mask.

……

After moving a full set of human skin mask-making tools from under the bed, Qin Zhibo took out two human skin masks he had used before.

They are the human skin masks of "Ryohei Matsumoto" and "Michael Bay" respectively.

These two masks required high precision, so they were specially made by the master of disguise, Kuroba Kaito.

At present, Qin Zhibo’s disguise skill level is only level 2, and his proficiency is 140/1000.

A human skin mask made at this level is only difficult to detect at night, but it is basically too ugly to be seen in bright light.

But now Qin Zhibo has two high-tech human skin masks, and there are many things he can learn and research.

When making the mask, Qin Zhibo discovered that Kuroba Kaito's silicone surface was much thinner than his own.

The disadvantage of this is that it will break easily if torn and cannot withstand strong rubbing.

There are many advantages. The effect is more realistic, the face will not look swollen when worn, and many layers of human skin masks can be stacked.

In addition, Qin Zhibo's human skin mask is a separate silicone mask and wig, while the one made by Kuroba Kaito is glued together, which makes it easier to wear and take off.

Qin Zhibo tried the human skin mask style of Kuroba Kaito for the first time. He heated the silicone and poured it on the human head model, then used a small shovel to scrape the silicone thinner and thinner.

This process is a bit like making a pancake, but it is much more difficult than making a pancake. The human face is an uneven three-dimensional structure, and it is not easy to spread every detail to a natural thickness.

When the silicone was almost cooled, Qin Zhibo finally finished the work and removed the mask from the model.

After trying it on, I found that it does feel lighter and thinner than the previous shoddy ones.

Qin Zhibo did not choose to directly add hair and detailed colors to the mask, but prepared the next piece of silicone to continue practicing.

……

From morning to two o'clock in the afternoon, there were no customers coming to the office, so Qin Zhibo practiced making human skin masks in the cabin.

During this period, Qin Zhibo made a total of ten human skin masks, gained a total of 1250 points of proficiency improvement, and raised his disguise level to level 3.

At this level, facial details can be much better, and under certain lighting conditions, they are acceptable as long as you don't overthink them.

But there is still a lot of room for improvement. For example, if you want to make a human skin mask for a specific person, you need a model of that person's head.

This model also needs to be made separately, which requires some carving skills. Qin Zhibo currently does not have this ability and can only use the basic human head model that can be bought in the store.

There are also skin coloring, hair making and pasting, multi-layer mask superposition... These are all advanced contents of disguise.

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to make the 11th training mask, the sound of an iron door opening came from the eavesdropping device in his ear.

Kudo Shinichi is out!

Qin Zhibo immediately opened his wardrobe and instead of wearing his signature brown trench coat, he chose the black suit that he had only worn once, at a banquet at the Beihu Hotel.

In addition, Qin Zhibo hurriedly put on the tenth mask he made, the wig he had bought before, and went out.

……

Using the locating spell, Qin Zhibo discovered that Kudo Shinichi had only gone to Professor Agasa's house next door.

After waiting for about an hour in a coffee shop near Dr. Agasa's house, Kudo Shinichi finally walked out of Dr. Agasa's house, wearing a sky blue high-end suit.

Qin Zhibo followed all the way to the tallest building in Mihua Town - Mihua Central Building.

Rice Flower Central Building: Danger!

Chapter 433 Card and Face Scan Entry

Kudo Shinichi entered the elevator in the lobby first. Qin Zhibo knew that Kudo Shinichi had gone to the 36th floor based on the elevator indicator light.

According to the floor distribution map next to the elevator, the 36th floor is the top floor of the Mika Central Building, where there is a high-end observation restaurant.

Combined with the clothes Kudo Shinichi was wearing, it was not difficult to guess that he was going on a date.

As for who he is meeting, you will find out when you go up and take a look.

……

Qin Zhibo took the elevator to the 36th floor and was about to enter the Lookout Restaurant when he was stopped by the waiter.

"Sir, do you have an appointment?"

Qin Zhibo was stunned for a moment and glanced at Kudo Shinichi who was sitting alone by the window in the restaurant, looking at the beautiful scenery outside.

"Do you still need to make an appointment for this place?"

"Yes, sir." The waiter nodded politely.

"Where is that person?"

Qin Zhibo nodded and signaled Kudo Shinichi.

The waiter glanced in the direction and said with a smile, "That gentleman has a gold card, so he doesn't need an appointment to consume here."

Qin Zhibo: "..."

The gold card should be similar to the Centurion black card, which can only be owned by the real upper class.

Unexpectedly, Kudo Shinichi became a rich young man in Tokyo just after he regained his identity, and a simple class threshold blocked him out.

In order to find a good spot to wait, Qin Zhibo could only continue to ask, "Excuse me, are there any other restaurants or bars on this floor?"

“There’s also an Italian restaurant next door that doesn’t require reservations, so you might want to check it out.”

"OK, thanks."

Qin Zhibo smiled and patted the waiter's shoulder, actually leaving a [detective's eavesdropping device] on his shoulder.

In this way, the waiter can hear who he is serving.

……

After leaving the Lookout Restaurant, Qin Zhibo went to the Italian restaurant next door.

Although this restaurant is also on the top floor, the view outside the window is average and the environment is relatively ordinary. It is not as gorgeous as the lookout restaurant next door.

Qin Zhibo took a look at the menu and ordered the cheapest Italian set meal with a bottle of mineral water. Then he began to wait for Kudo Shinichi to slowly brew his power of death.

……

Time passed quickly. From 5 pm to pm, no one came to look for Kudo Shinichi. Qin Zhibo could only kill time by playing Snake on his mobile phone.

During this period, Qin Zhibo felt uncomfortable wearing the human skin mask for a long time, and Kudo Shinichi had no reason to enter this Italian restaurant, so he quietly took off the human skin mask when no one was paying attention.

At this time, the waiter walked over to Qin Zhibo's table and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, this restaurant will be hosting a company's cocktail party after 8 o'clock tonight, so I sincerely recommend other restaurants downstairs..."

The waiter's words were quite polite, but it was actually an order to leave.

Qin Zhibo thought about it and realized that if a murder happened in the Lookout Restaurant, he would be able to hear it immediately through the eavesdropping device, so it wouldn't affect anything if he went to the restaurant downstairs to wait.

But just as Qin Zhibo stood up and walked to the door, two people came towards him in the corridor.

"Eh? Isn't this the famous detective Qin Zhibo?"

"Why are you here?"

After taking off the human skin mask, one of them recognized Qin Zhibo at a glance.

Qin Zhibo looked at the person's identity information: Taiji Tatsumi, company president, social credit rating 5100...

Remembering what the waiter had just said about a company cocktail party, Qin Zhibo immediately responded, "I was eating at this Italian restaurant, but I was just kicked out because they were having a company cocktail party..."

Qin Zhibo deliberately added some resentment to his tone, and Tatsumi Taiji immediately explained, "Haha, actually, today is a cocktail party to celebrate the 20th anniversary of my company. I'm really sorry to disturb Mr. Qin's elegant mood."

"If you don't mind, please join us at the cocktail party."

Qin Zhibo pretended to decline, "How can I do that? This is your company's internal party..."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You're a famous detective throughout Japan. I'd be honored to have you as a special guest at our company's reception..."

With the blessing of Qin Zhibo's social credit halo of 5700, Tatsumi Taiji put his arm around Qin Zhibo's back and respectfully invited Qin Zhibo back to the Italian restaurant.

Only the man following behind had a gloomy look on his face.

……

At eight o'clock, Mao Lilan finally hurried to the observation restaurant on the top floor of the Beika Central Building.

After telling the waiter at the door that she was invited by "Mr. Kudo", the waiter brought Ran Mouri directly to Shinichi Kudo.

Today, Ran Mouri was wearing a sky blue long skirt. Her pure and beautiful appearance made Shinichi Kudo couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

After settling down, the virtuous Mao Lilan quickly whispered to Kudo Shinichi: "Is it okay to come here? It seems very expensive here..."

Kudo Shinichi chuckled, took out the mysterious gold card from his pocket, and showed off his identity as a rich second-generation.

"You really are a spendthrift..."

The two of them were joking with each other, and suddenly the topic was pulled to Conan by Mouri Ran.

"Oh, and honestly, I've been thinking Conan is actually you lately..."

"I was thinking you must have been involved in some major case that forced you to hide your identity."

"So you asked Dr. Agasa to make you some medicine that could make your body smaller..."

Mao Lilan laughed out loud as she said this, "I'm very imaginative, right?"

Kudo Shinichi could only laugh awkwardly at Ran Mouri's "guess".

"But it's strange, ever since you came back, I've looked at Conan and he seems like a completely different person."

"Ah ha ha……"

Once again, Kudo Shinichi could only hide his guilt with an awkward smile.

"By the way, you said this morning that you wanted me to come here to talk to you. What exactly did you want to say?"

Looking at Ran Mouri's expectant eyes, Kudo Shinichi's face flushed slightly, and his wandering eyes did not dare to look at Ran Mouri.

"What I want to say is..."

"Yes……"

Just as Kudo Shinichi was hesitating, a waiter placed two large menus in front of them.

"Sir, Madam, here is the menu."

……

In the Italian restaurant, Qin Zhibo was hiding in a private room.

Employees of Chen Ji Company have entered the restaurant one after another. In order to avoid too much disturbance, Qin Zhibo chose to hide here in a relatively quiet place and eavesdrop.

Because of this, Qin Zhibo also knew that the person dating Kudo Shinichi was Mao Li Ran.

Is this kid going to implement the Three Waves Mantra?

Seeing such extravagance, Qin Zhibo probably guessed that Kudo Shinichi wanted to confess his love to Mao Li Ran.

It’s a pity that Qin Zhibo failed to place a bug in the lookout restaurant, and the guard totem was on cooldown, so he couldn’t hear the conversation between the two in the restaurant.

At this moment, two employees of Tatsumi Company pushed the door and entered the private room.

One of the men was the manager who had been following President Tatsumi before, named Ohba Satoru.

Chapter 434 A Man Who Is Useless Even If He Is Given a Chance

"Mr. Ohba, where are the mascot costumes?"

"Ah, just put it..."

Just as Ohba Satoru was about to point to a corner, he suddenly saw Qin Zhibo sitting inside and was stunned.
