Chapter 403: Next Target, Moving Armor
Conan is very motivated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ever since he learned about the Grim Reaper, he has been making meticulous preparations every day. He asked Dr. Asa to make a number of novel tools, some of which were used to monitor anomalies around the detective agency, and some of which were used to improve his abilities.
Chen Xu saw Conan fiddling with these tools, and asked curiously, "Conan, are these things really useful?" Are you sure they can detect abnormalities around them? ”
Conan continued to fiddle with the tools in his hand, "I don't know if it's useful, but it's better than nothing." That Reaper's ability is simply too foul, and he can kill the other person without even having to make contact with the target. In this way, it is difficult to find him through conventional methods. ”
Zhao Min asked suspiciously, "Master, why did this god of death warn us?" He can hide and kill people in the dark, and there is no need for him to contact us. ”
Zhou Zhiruo also nodded, "Senior sister is right, I guess that the Grim Reaper may have made him regard us as opponents for some reason. Our purpose is to capture him, and his purpose is likely to prevent us from getting caught. ”
Conan was also puzzled by this, "If he wants to prevent being caught by you, isn't the best way to hide himself as best he can?" The Grim Reaper's current behavior is a little strange. Since he is able to control heavy objects to appear out of thin air, why don't he attack you directly with this ability, but threaten you through Yuta? ”
After some analysis, several people probably came to several conclusions.
First, for some reason, the Grim Reaper regarded Chen Xu as an opponent and wanted to prevent him from discovering his identity.
Second, there are certain restrictions on the use of Death's abilities. At least for now, he can only use Death Note's abilities to kill. In addition, those abilities of his are likely to have no effect on Chen Xu, Zhiruo, and Min Min.
Third, the Grim Reaper's targets at this stage are all those who have committed serious crimes. This is also the main reason why Chen Xu and Conan suspect that the Grim Reaper is the Night God Moon. Of course, it is also possible that the Grim Reaper did this on purpose, wanting to mislead Chen Xu's judgment.
Aside from the above three points, they have no clue about the clues of the Grim Reaper.
"Anyway, I'm going to ask Officer Twilight to investigate if there have been any recent appearances of unknown people in the vicinity, or if there have been any cases of missing people suddenly returning."
Chen Xu is far less interested in this mission than Conan.
In his view, the death of those criminals was deserved. If the other party's target was criminals, he didn't feel the need to find out the Grim Reaper. It's actually quite good to reduce crime in this way.
As for the punishment for mission failure, it was nothing to him at all. He now had a feeling that the company's headquarters, apart from the occasional assignment to him, was basically adopting a free-range policy.
Comparatively speaking, Conan's reaction was much more intense. In his eyes, a criminal act is a criminal act. Whatever his purpose, as a detective, as long as he has committed a crime, he must find the culprit.
What he likes is more of the indescribable pleasure of finding out the truth and the murderer through a series of clues.
"That's right." Conan suddenly asked, "You said that you are free to go to other worlds, right?" ”
"Well, that's right. However, in the past, the new world without quests would require time and space points. ”
Conan looked excited, "If I help you find the Grim Reaper, can you take me to the world of Sherlock Holmes?" I really wanted to meet my idol and see him solve the case firsthand. ”
"That's fine, if you can find the Grim Reaper."
Conan patted his chest, "Don't worry, I'll definitely be able to find him." As long as he leaves clues, I'm confident that they will help you complete your mission. ”
Knock knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Xiaolan pushed the door and walked in, "Brother Chen, Conan, your relationship has been really good recently, and you always stay together." ”
Chen Xu smiled slightly, "Xiaolan, did you come to us for something?" ”
Xiaolan handed a postcard to Chen Xu, "Just now, a child knocked on the door and said that it was an uncle who asked him to hand over the postcard to you." It's weird, I don't see anything written on this postcard, I guess it's a prank, right? ”
Chen Xu took the postcard and opened it, and his face changed slightly.
"Xiaolan, thank you. Recently there were rumors that the armor of the city museum moves on its own at night, have you heard? ”
Xiaolan nodded, "This rumor?" I've also heard that it seems that my dad accepted an invitation to visit the museum a few days ago, and by the way, I will investigate the truth of this rumor. ”
Chen Xu handed the postcard to Zhiruo, "That's right, then let's go together then." ”
"Okay, then I'll go talk to Dad, it shouldn't be a problem." Xiaolan agreed, turned around and left the room.
Zhiruo opened the postcard and saw a line of words written on it:
The next goal, the city museum moves the armor.
Death respects.
"Master, is this Grim Reaper again? What exactly does he mean when he says that the target is moving armor? ”
Conan took the postcard and didn't see any handwriting.
"What the hell is written on this? Is it related to the rumors about the museum? ”
Chen Xu told Conan what he said, and also told the museum incident in his memory, wanting to hear his analysis.
Conan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The concept of this goal is a bit vague, whether the Grim Reaper means that he wants to kill the criminal, or whether he wants to kill the person who embezzled the museum's property, or wants to prevent us from finding the criminal. ”
Chen Xu thought about it and raised his doubts, "Judging from what is written on the postcard, the Grim Reaper seems to know where the next case will occur, but he doesn't know what will happen.
It's very strange, who told him where the case was about to take place? Could it be that he could have been alerted before the case happened? Also, why did he give me another reminder, or a warning? Is this a provocation? ”
"Master, I know." Zhao Min said suddenly: "You can receive hints about the future in advance, this is very similar to the things in "Future Diary". Maybe the Grim Reaper is not a person, but an organization. ”
"Future Diary, what's that? No, I know what it means, I'm asking about the general plot. Conan questioned.
Chen Xu patted his forehead, "Minmin, don't speculate. The Grim Reaper is enough of a headache, and you'll have to get another future diary. Now that you know, tell Conan about it. ”
If that's what Min Min says, things get even more complicated.
