"Ahem!"

On the other end of the phone, the old man named Camus coughed lightly twice, and also said in a mocking tone, "What, the little girl's wings are hard?" Forget who brought you out of the slums in the first place? ”

"Well, of course I remember."

The girl said impatiently, "But why did you call me all of a sudden?" I heard you're still in that place. Haven't you already completed your mission? ”

"Huh."

Camus chuckled in a hoarse tone, and then said, "Thanks to you. Otherwise, Taro Asami, I really can't find him. ”

"Isn't that enough, why stay there now that the mission has been accomplished?"

The girl asked, puzzled.

"This person has been hiding for sixteen years under the search of the organization, such a guy, I don't believe he has left a trace at all."

Camus said with some excitement in his tone.

"However, if a person dies like a lamp goes out, what can he do with more back-ups?"

The girl said with some annoyance.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about it."

Camus suddenly said solemnly, "I called you today, just to tell you that it is a very good choice to stay in the United States as you, after all, the situation in China is still too complicated......

"Alright, alright, Camus."

Somewhat tired, the girl said, "I understand what you said, but I'm not a child after all. ”

Hearing this, the old man on the other end of the phone suddenly paused for a while, and then said with some emotion:

"Yes, that's right. After all, you did a very good job in your last mission, and that fire took care of everything on the scene, and it seems that your growth has exceeded my expectations. ”

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone.

In this regard, the girl put the phone back on the table with some impatience, and then slowly walked back to the bedroom. However, the girl did not continue to arrange her clothes, but went to the desk next to the bed and sat down, thoughtfully opened the drawer of the desk, and took out a picture frame.

I saw a photo in the frame.

The content of the photo is very strange and was taken with a camera, a frame placed on the table.

In the frame of this photo, there is also a photograph in the background of a building with the words "Experimental Building" written in English. In front of the building, two teenagers and girls stand side by side.

One of them was a girl with short brown hair who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old.

The other was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with a fashionable brown hairstyle.

The blonde girl looked at the photo in this photo, then chuckled, stretched out her finger, stroked the face of the girl with short brown hair in the photo, chuckled, and muttered:

"It's a pity, the last time we met, you probably didn't know what happened. When I go back this time, I really want to take a good look at what kind of expression you will show when you learn the truth - Shirry! ”

But then, the blonde girl remembered the last words of Camus on the phone just now, and couldn't help but show a wicked smile - it seems that after I left, what else happened!

It's really, really, fun!

With that in mind, the blonde girl got up, put the frame in her suitcase, and continued to organize her clothes.

……

"Logic: S"

"Knowledge: S"

"Observation: S"

"Stage 3 Overall Evaluation: S"

"After the promotion challenge is over, the comprehensive evaluation of each stage of statistical settlement begins"

"Comprehensive evaluation by stage: b, s, s"

"Settlement Completed"

"Overall Evaluation of Advancement Challenge: A"

"If you pass the grade, you will be rewarded with a reward of 200 and a promotion reward"

Looking at this settlement screen, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel a little happy, although the score of "Stage 1" was a little low, but fortunately, the score in the back was still enough. But I have to say that this time there was some good luck.

Thinking like this, new words appeared.

"Detective Rating: Certified Detective"

"Certified as a full-fledged detective, your intuition has improved dramatically, and you're better able to track and counter-track."

"Bounty: 1210"

"Promotion Reward (Unclaimed)"

Seeing this, Gao Yuan didn't think much about it, and decisively chose to receive it immediately, and then a new text appeared:

[Promotion Reward: One-Time Item]

"Name: Grim Reaper"

"Special Effects: You can choose one of the following two effects to use: 1 Cast on yourself, and for the next 24 hours, you will have a high chance of encountering a death event. 2 When used on the Dying, it can hinder the onset of death for the next 24 hours (Note: This effect has side effects, even if the Dying can be revived, it will never wake up with high power). When any of these effects are used, this item will disappear."

"How to use: Press your right hand to the mouth of your target's heart, then sincerely pray for the coming of death."

Looking at the text description of this "one-time prop", Gao Yuan couldn't help but pause for a moment, and then felt a trace of helplessness - to be honest, if there is no text in parentheses in the second effect, this is really an extremely powerful prop, which is a pity.

As for the first effect, staying by Kudo Shinichi's side seems to have a similar effect!

"That's right, Mr. Wise."

Seeing that Takato who took the check was in a daze, Ooka Momiji couldn't help but remind him, so that Takato's attention returned to reality.

"What's wrong, Miss Momiji?"

Gao Yuan couldn't help asking.

"The identity of the murderer has been identified."

Ooka Momiji said, "The other party seems to have some misunderstanding with my family...... I'm sorry, Mr. Wise, but I don't know how to explain it to you for a while. ”

"Yes, no need."

Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "Since the police have already found out to this point, it is only a matter of time before the murderer confesses, and I don't need to be involved anymore." ”

"That's right."

Ooka Momiji said, "So, Mr. Wise, do you have any plans for the future?" ”

"If nothing else, I'm ready to go home."

Gao Yuan said truthfully, "After all, the New Year is coming soon." ”

In this regard, Ooka Momiji didn't say anything more, and after sending Takato to the station of the Kyoto Shinkansen, the two said goodbye.

Takato, because of the huge fortune he had gained this time, immediately rushed back to Tokyo, ready to renovate his quarters—especially the study with the basement entrance.

After all, in the whole villa, in addition to his own bedroom, only that room has a bookshelf, which is too abrupt, and if anyone is curious about it, the basement will soon be discovered.

So, for a few days in a row, Takato was decorating this study, and for this reason, he bought a lot of high-end bookshelves to decorate this room, and bought a full set of Kudo Yusaku and Suyong Hibei's reasoning, and put it on the shelves, and then bought a lot of world-renowned reasoning works, and some miscellaneous books, and finally decorated this room to a similar degree to the study of Kudo's new family-

Now, unless you know beforehand, no one would have thought that there is a basement entrance hidden here!

However, after all this, it was already the early morning of the last day of the year! After being tired for so long, Gao Yuan looked at the masterpiece he had completed and slept satisfied.

It's just that in the early morning of the same day, before dawn, and Gao Yuan was still sleeping, a woman with long black hair stood outside the iron gate of Gao Yuan's house, and carefully put a leaflet into the mailbox outside the door.
