Conan's Unscientific Detective

“Reason with your heart and feel with your intuition. I call it idealistic reasoning.”

Kuroba Kaito looked at Fujino speechlessly.

He certainly didn't know what it was.

After all, Fujino, the spoiler dog, doesn't even know what the hell he has made up.

To use the words of my previous life, let's call it "the power of my thinking."

"Ahem."

Fujino coughed lightly, "The Shadow Master left this message, and this is just the first one. So this time, besides the Escape King, there must be someone else who will be killed..."

“Will anyone else be killed?”

Kuroba Kaito frowned when he heard this, and thought about it carefully. Although he didn't understand what Fujino said just now, it seemed to make sense.

Is this the detective?

How scary.

"Then do you have any way to stop that shadow mage from killing people?"

After thinking for a moment, Kuroba Kaito showed a serious expression and looked at Fujino.

"Now I have some clues... I am confident that I can prevent anyone from being killed again."

Seeing that Kuroba Kaito had taken the bait, Fujino nodded in satisfaction and said, "But I need a little help from you."

"help?"

"Well, I need you to tell me something."

Fujino nodded and explained: "Besides that, I need you to pay me 500,000 commission."

"There's not much information about the Shadow Mage...but what the hell is the commission?"

Kuroba Kaito looked at Fujino in confusion.

"Originally, I can't just ignore a thief like you. I came here today just to catch you..."

After a pause, Fujino showed a distressed look: "But due to the special circumstances of today, I can't do anything to you for the time being. If I do something to you, it will definitely affect my actions, but not doing anything to you is against my professional ethics, so I thought of a compromise, that is, you become my client, and the protection commission is 500,000 yen. If you entrust me, I can't do anything to my client."

"So you lost money and I won?"

The corners of Hei Yu Kaidou's mouth twitched, "Why do I feel like you're taking advantage of me?"

Recalling the look of the money-adding monk last time, he suddenly felt as if he had fallen into the trap of this guy from the moment he opened the door.

Fujino didn't like what he heard. What does it mean to take advantage of someone's misfortune?

Doesn't it give any points if I'm wanted by so many countries?

Forget it, if you don’t want to listen to my kind advice, then just click it.

Fujino sighed, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "This Phantom Thief, you don't want to..."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 182: Squeeze

"My Phantom Thief, you don't want anyone to be killed by the Shadow Mage because of me arresting you, right?"

The corners of Fujino's mouth curled up slightly, and his fists clenched slightly, showing them in front of Kuroba Kaito.

"........."

Kuroba Kaito took a look at Fujino's fist which was as big as a sandbag, swallowed, and couldn't help but be speechless.

Well, this guy must be blackmailing him, right?

No, it shouldn't be like that. This is definitely blackmailing him!

Although he also realized that Fujino was blackmailing him.

But he still planned to pay 500,000 yen.

There is no way. Although I feel like I am being taken advantage of, what the other party says makes sense.

Every profession has its own rules.

He has his own rules as a magician.

I have to say, Fujino, the sixth one.

He had a firm grasp on his psychology.

The purpose of his coming here this time was to comfort Murai Fuden's family.

If he guessed correctly, then the woman named Tanaka Kikue should be the daughter or granddaughter of Murai Fuden.

Of course, the so-called comfort is nothing more than encouragement.

Well, he didn't want to see anyone die at this party, and he definitely didn't give in because of the other party's...violence.

"I don't have 500,000 yen in cash right now..."

"No cash?"

Fujino frowned.

Well, 500,000 yen is not a lot, but if it is converted into cash, at least 50 10,000 yen bills are needed.

Most people don't carry so much cash with them.

After a pause, Fujino continued, "Did you bring your bank card?"

"bank card?"

Kuroba Kaito was stunned, "I do have a bank card."

"That's good."

Fujino took out a black mobile POS machine and said, "I support mobile payment here."

Kuroba Kaito: “…………”

Good guy, good guy.

Do you always carry a mobile POS machine with you?

No, where did you get the mobile POS machine from?

Kuroba Kaito was speechless as he watched Fujino take out a mobile POS machine from somewhere, just like him.

Speechless, he took out a bank card from somewhere, swiped it on Fujino's mobile POS machine, and entered the password.

As a phantom thief, his bank card was of course encrypted. He did not apply for it under the identity of high school detective Kuroba Kaito, so he did not think that his card swiping operation would reveal his identity.

Even if the other party traces through bank card information, in the end they will only find an empty number of a Swiss bank.

【System balance received: 500,000 yen】

A pleasant reminder sound rang in Fujino's ears.

The smile on Fujino's face gradually became more relaxed. After putting away the mobile POS machine, he patted Kuroba Kaito on the shoulder and said, "Happy cooperation, client."

"Ha ha……"

This attitude changed really quickly.

Kuroba Kaito turned to Fujino and asked, "So what information do you need from me?"

"You joined the group quite early, I think you should know something about the Shadow Mage."

Fujino asked: "Is there any conflict between Shadow Mage and Escape King before I join the group?"

"contradiction?"

Kuroba Kaito thought for a moment and replied, "As for the contradiction, they did have a big fight over the Murai Fuden matter. Probably just before you came into this chat room, the shadow mage suddenly said something like, 'This great magician will die, it's all your fault.' I can understand what he said. Ikasama Douji is the Murai Fuden. Half a year ago, we discussed the escape magic matter. After that, probably because of the expectations of the people in the chat room, Mr. Murai held his last magic show not long after."

"The last magic trick?"

"That's right. During that escape magic show, Mr. Murai died unexpectedly..."

Having said this, Kuroba Kaito suddenly frowned.

Obviously, as a magician, he also felt sorry for the magician's death.

"If we look at the current situation, the murderer is most likely a magic fan of Mr. Murai. After learning that someone in this chat room asked Mr. Murai to perform magic again and died, he took revenge on everyone in the chat room in order to avenge Mr. Murai."

Based on the evidence currently available, Fujino abandoned the involvement of spoilers and gave the current reasoning results.

"Dong dong!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door: "Mr. Doi, we have prepared dinner."

"I see!"

Kuroba Kaito regained his voice as Doi Takeru and responded.

"Okay, let's go eat."

Fujino turned around and pushed open the door.

"Are you still in the mood to eat?"

Kuroba Kaito stood up from the bed he was sitting on, "There is still a murderer watching us in the dark, trying to kill us."

"Man is iron and rice is steel."

Fujino waved his hand nonchalantly. "In this situation where the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, we have no way to take the initiative to attack. We can only wait for the Shadow Mage to be exposed. With you, a Hundred-Change Phantom Thief, and me, a Dark Detective, the Shadow Mage will be exposed as soon as he makes the slightest move."

"Right……"

Kuroba Kaito recalled the scene that night when Fujino held a wooden sword, jumped two or three meters, and chased the spider to chop it, and he nodded involuntarily.

It's so funny. Who is so blind as to dare to do something in front of this guy?

The time came in the afternoon.

Because it was winter and the days were short and the nights were long, it was already dark before six o'clock.

Everyone came to the dining table, except Conan.

Since Fujino had fed Conan two tablets of magic cold medicine in advance, he has now slept like a dead dog under the effect of the cold medicine.

At the dinner table, everyone in the magic chat room began discussing their favorite Japanese magicians.

"If it's a magician, let's say Kuroba Touichi."

Fujino casually mentioned a magician he was most familiar with.

"I also prefer Kuroba Toichi."

Aramaki Yoshinobu also said so.

Hei Yu Daoyi had died publicly eighteen years ago.

Although he has been dead for many years, as a representative of an era of magic, he still has a large number of fans who are magic enthusiasts.

Especially someone of Ara Yoshinori's age.

Kuroba Kaito looked at Fujino in surprise. He didn't expect that Fujino was a fan of his father.

After a pause, he agreed, "It's the same for me."

"I admire Kinoshita Yoshiro more because he has accumulated all the titles at the age of 20."

Hamano Toshiya said so.

"Why do you all like the dead magus... I still prefer the living Sanada Kazuzo."

Naoko Kuroda complained, and then asked Xiaolan and Sonoko: "Do you two have a favorite magician?"

"My favorite magician..."

Sonoko paused, a girlish blush appearing on her face, "Of course it's Kaito Kidd!"

"But, Kaito Kidd is a thief..."

"And we can't be sure that he is a Neon."

"I fought him twice."

At this time, Fujino suddenly said: "It is certain that he is a Japanese. Although he is well disguised, my intuition can confirm that..."
