Chapter 436: Conan: Joker can't be a summoned beast, right?

"Uh-"

"Mr. Hirata, Mr. Hirata!"

Mori Kogoro, who paid special attention to Kazuaki Hirata's condition because of Mori Lan's reminder, rushed up with a brisk walk and supported Kazuaki Hirata, who was having trouble breathing and his face turned red.

Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Hideo Kawashima grabbed their throats in pain like suffocation, and then the scene of the seven orifices flowing black mud falling down played back in his mind.

Damn, is it going to be repeated?

"Eh, Miss Reiko!"

Outside, the panicked shouts of Twilight Thirteen and a few other police officers can be heard.

Heiyan Lingzi covered her mouth, her face was also flushed, and she fell to the ground weakly. Her fiancΓ©, Murazawa, was in perfect condition on Monday, hugging his girlfriend at a loss, calling her name and slapping her on the back.

Mori Kogoro and Twilight Thirteen glanced at each other, and they both sensed that something was wrong.

"Go out and see what's going on outside!" Picking up Reiko Kuroiwa, who was gasping for breath and looking very painful, Twilight Thirteen snapped, "Look at the situation of the other people on the island, if there are any accidents!" ”

At the same time, as the two of them fell to their knees in pain, wails and cries were repeated over and over again in the dwellings of the entire island, and at least more than half of the islanders also had similar symptoms at the moment when the two of them showed signs of pain.

At the dawn of the rising sun, only the sound of mourning could be heard all over the island of Lunaris.

The sky-high flames of the community center rose more and more in the midst of this continuous wail, and the billowing smoke and scorching fire were almost connected with the rising sun.

"Mr. Chengshi......" For a moment he didn't understand why he was in a sea of fire, with his arms open as if he were offering sacrifices, as if to welcome the engulfment of flames, but Mao Lilan still shouted his name vigorously, trying to regain his senses.

Unaware of his eyes, which had been completely dyed golden, Asai Narumi just glanced at the two people who were rubbed with mud smoke outside the window and smiled.

What a warm feeling...... Is it his father calling him?

Although he wasn't sure if it would work, Asai Narumi, who vaguely sensed that he was slowly grasping some power, slowly closed his eyes.

Let this fire be the baptism of the island's rebirth, the last thing he could do for it as a child of Moon Shadow.

As Conan lowered his hands feebly, and Maorilan, who had embraced him, also fell to the ground, a black figure flew behind them like lightning, and without looking back, rushed towards the hole in the window where Conan had fallen out of the room.

Conan hurriedly turned his eyes scorched by the firelight, and saw a line that was redder than the flames, drawing a bright, sunrise-like bright red mark surrounded by the flames.

"It's the monster thief Joker......" Although they had known that the Monster Thief of the Heart had also come nearby because of the badge on the score, Mao Lilan was still very surprised to see Joker appear and rush into the fire.

Didn't she remember that the old policeman had told them that no one else had landed on the island recently?

Joker!

Conan's eyes widened, and the familiar line of Asai Narumi just now suddenly crossed his ears.

Is this some kind of code-like content? Joker who heard this sentence responded to the call?

Thinking about everything that happened at the holographic game conference not long ago, he seemed to really understand something.

Yes, Noah's Ark said something similar at the very beginning of everything, after all the children were in the game pod...... Then, hiss......

Not knowing what the well-thought-out detective classmate was arranging for him outside, Karasawa quickly jumped through the hole smashed by Conan and jumped into the piano room where Asai Narumi was.

"Do you want to kill them all as a reward for us?" Seeing with his own eyes the appearance of the shadow Asai Chengshi knowing that the world was about to be killed, Tang Ze said this question in a determined tone.

"Isn't that why you came to me?" Glancing at Tang Ze with a pair of golden eyes, Asai Narumi spread out his hands, "I, too, have similar abilities to you, don't I?" As early as two years ago, I killed the previous village chief because of an unconscious rage. You want to get rid of those things, and I'm the right one......"

"I don't deny your idea." Ignoring the flames surrounding him, Tang Ze slowly stepped over the burning floor and walked in front of Asai Narumi, "But like I said...... Want to try our approach? ”

"Isn't that exactly how you do it?" Asai Narumi tilted his head a little puzzled.

Using the cognitive world, efficiently detecting intelligence, and killing targets efficiently, these have been demonstrated to him by the people of the Monster Thieves Group, and it is precisely by understanding all this that he deeply understands what he can do.

At least on this island, all those who have evil thoughts will be turned into flames with him in the will that burns him......

"That's just one of the options...... Asashi is not curious why we will find you, will it lock on to you so quickly? Coming up with the tone of "Have you heard of Amway" again, Tang Ze lowered his voice a little, not only to avoid all the content being heard by Conan, but also to make the atmosphere a little more convincing, "Do you want to see it with your own eyes, 'The Dark Side of Moon Shadow Island', and, 'Mr. Gravekeeper of Moon Shadow Island'......"

Hearing the meaning of the words from Tang Ze's tone slightly, Asai Narumi's eyes slowly widened.

Soon, he let out a self-deprecating laugh.

"I'm right...... I, with my hands stained with blood, am just like them, a hopeless bastard. ”

"It's a little more complicated than you think." Tang Ze stretched out his hand to him again, "People's hearts are not immutable, and people's egoes are not always firm. Good people may not be free of demons, and bad people may not be struggling inside...... It is a world of cognition, and since it contains the evil of human nature, it also contains the goodness of human nature. ”

Asai Narumi, who had followed him to the cognitive world several times, naturally understood the meaning of this action, and his gaze involuntarily fell on his glove-covered palm.

β€œJoker!” Against the smoke blown to his face by the wind, Conan tried his best to see everything in the room, and shouted the other party's name vigorously, "Come out, the house is going to collapse......"

"'Narumi Asai' has passed away in a flame of self-destruction. Interested in seeing your own world, the dead? Throwing out this sentence, which had been foreshadowed for a long time, Tang Ze didn't pay attention to the gradually falling architectural structure, and was slowly burying the entire room, still standing in the distance, waiting for his answer.

"The dead." Narumi Asai repeated the word, "the dead...... You're right. ”

They are already fearless of death, what kind of truth is there that he can't accept?

Again, Asai Narumi took his hand.

Asai Narumi, whose clothes had been set on fire by the flames, disappeared into the center of the fire, along with Joker's figure.

In the next second, the community activity center, which had been built for more than ten years, completely collapsed in a bang, and under the cover of the firelight, it fell down with great momentum.

"Mr. Chengshi! joker! Witnessing this scene, Mao Lilan couldn't help but let out a cry of grief.

Conan, whose heart also mentioned his throat, swallowed, but thinking of Joker's glorious deeds in the past, he didn't think that this guy would really die in a fire casually.

The C4 that almost destroyed the Shinkansen train theoretically caused much more damage than the flames and building fragments......

Glancing at Mao Lilan's heartbroken expression, Conan scratched his cheek, and the pain was reduced slightly.

How to deal with and characterize Asai Narumi...... He also has a lot of headaches.

On the one hand, reasoning from the perspective of motives, the real murderer must be Narumi Asai.

But on the other hand, the methods he used, which were handled by the Assurance Section, could only be said to be helpless...... Not to mention, among the three deceased, there was also a Ken Nishimoto who committed suicide by jumping off a cliff.

Even if Asai Narumi calmly told him that he was the killer murderer, but can the law really determine this and make him pay for it? Conan wasn't quite sure.

So, half out of genuine concern for his friend, half out of vague suspicion, Conan wiped a handful of glass crumbs on his body and the black ash on his face, rubbed it clean on his clothes, and secretly took out his mobile phone and pressed it.

[Are you alright? Did you save Narumi Asai?

Listen to the meaning of your conversation, he is the murderer you came into contact with from the beginning...... So you didn't succeed in stopping him, is it really because you want to use him and get rid of these drug dealers?

The method he used...... Really, has nothing to do with you? 】

β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Pretty sharp." Hearing the news relayed by Noah, Tang Ze, who dragged Asai Narumi, who had temporarily lost consciousness due to lack of oxygen, flew forward, and commented in a relaxed tone, "Sure enough, I'll just say, since he has probably understood through me that there is a kind of 'wish come true' general power in the world, he will definitely have these unexplained supernatural deaths related to us." ”

"Is that all right, Leader?" Kicking a zombie-like cognitive doll that pounced on him, Noah took advantage of his strength to rise into the air and floated again, "This matter, we really did it wrong, right?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do it." Walking through the Moon Shadow Island, which had a very Yanan atmosphere, Tang Ze jumped on the roof and continued to run, the words in his mouth were already bursting out of his mouth, "You ask Chengshi yourself, who did this?" He made his own decisions, did his own hands, and we were all the ones who collected tolls. If you stab someone to death with a kitchen knife, you catch someone who sells kitchen knives, it doesn't make sense. ”

Noah glanced at Tang Ze with a strange look.

Are you sure, although Asai Narumi originally made a plan to kill, it was not wrong to temporarily change it to what it is today, and kill it all in one night with such high efficiency, it is not appropriate to say that you did not contribute in the middle, right?

"Okay, no kidding." Tang Ze, who finished this paragraph, was a little more serious, "Becoming your own strength is indeed something that can achieve this effect...... The reason why it didn't work for the three of them before was not that Cheng Shi didn't want to, but that the three of them had a palace......"

"Oh, that's right...... Noah realized.

As the hall master linked to the impression space, the village chief Kameyama, who died of a heart attack two years ago, was actually killed by the awakening power of Asai Narumi.

However, the impression space and the temple are independent of each other, and there is probably no one such case as Asai Narumi who merged with the public hall in the midst of awakening.

It would be easy for him to kill the other shadows, but the three leaders who had slipped into his temple were indeed helpless from the perspective of understanding the world.

Thinking about this logic, Noah completely understood Tang Ze's sophistry and rolled his eyes.

It's really white, and the data stream in the eyes is gone.

"So, as long as he goes through the self-statements of other people and Asai Narumi, he will immediately be convinced that these are all done by 'awakened Asai Narumi'?" Noah sighed twice, "While assisting other people's blood relatives to take revenge, while throwing the pot so cleanly...... It's you. ”

The head of the regiment is the head of the regiment in the end, and even the skill of crumbling up is so outstanding.

"You just think I'm quibbling." Tang Ze laughed twice, and his voice was full of confidence, "Kill or not, superheroes, they are all superheroes." I'm not going to get rid of it completely, though. ”

Because...... This is indeed his power, and it can be achieved as well.

Tang Ze thought that he was a good person, and he also thought that it was impossible for him to make a wanton killing act because of a moment of righteous indignation...... But, who knows?

People will change, and people's cognition will change little by little.

Holding too much information in his arms will often lead him to use a condescending perspective to judge and identify the state and nature of others. In the final analysis, it is still based on personal subjective opinions, judging other people's perspectives.

Who can guarantee that his subjective life will maintain such a simple concept of justice and maintain a sense of universal morality?

His declaration of war on Conan was not a joke.

Absolute freedom will lead to slippage, and absolute self will cause blindness.

He needed a sword of Damocles, dangling above his head, and falling hard when he really strayed from the bottom line and jeopardized what was supposed to protect.

So......

"Get back to him for me." Scooping up the passage through the Fox Window, Karasawa said to Noah, "Just say, 'You can think so. All I can tell you is that it was all of his own volition, and I did not induce him to make any choice, on the contrary, I was the referee waiting for him to make a choice......"

【…… Didn't you always think that if my power got out of control, it would bring irreparable consequences?

Now, you see what the consequences look like.

As I said, being able to be destroyed after becoming a monster is also a kind of romance that belongs to heroes.

When you feel like you've really reached that point, there's no need to hesitate, detective. Trust your own judgment. 】

Looking at the end of the email, Conan closed his eyes and wrapped the blanket around him.

The exhaustion of not being able to sleep well all night, combined with the weakness of watching people fall into the sea of fire in front of him, coupled with the news transmitted by this email, weighed heavily on his heart and made him feel heavy.

Narumi Asai is also a person with similar powers to Joker...... That's why the Bandits are trying to get in touch with him.

Through the mouths of Mori Kogoro and other terrified islanders, he learned that many people, especially the daughters of Hirata and Kuroiwa Village Chief, were on the verge of following in the footsteps of the deceased, and he quickly realized what Asai Narumi wanted to do with his hands outstretched.

He wanted to kill all the people he thought were full of sin, and he wanted to use an extreme cleansing method to return the island to cleansing.

It's no wonder that Joker uses that reason to persuade Asai to tell others that sex is complex and can't be generalized to everyone...... It's just a little bit short, and this small island is about to turn into a Shura ghost domain.

Seeing Asai Narumi in the sea of fire, as if stepping into the altar and waiting for death, he almost seemed to see the end of Joker after he went to the end and fell into the abyss......

What to do, how to prevent him from going down such a dead end? And is he really qualified to be the judge who wields a knife at monsters?

If Joker had made it this far, there would have been no more people who would save him from self-destruction and prevent him from using his power to destroy everything in an extreme way.

"Conan, are you feeling better?" Maolilan looked at the clear sky outside the window in a particularly depressed mood, turned his head, looked at Conan in a trance, and said aloud, "I told them we saw the thief Joker, but the islanders are sure that we are the only three tourists who have come to the island recently. They don't trust our claims very much. ”

With the exposure of Asai Narumi's identity, the fact that he set himself on fire has been recognized by everyone.

However, the other adults didn't mean to believe that it was possible to save people, or that it was not possible to save the monster thief joker who might have put himself in it.

After all, it sounds too magical to appear abruptly and disappear into the fire abruptly......

"How's it going, is there a result?" Seeing the forensic doctors who had finished their work walk out of the room where the bodies were kept, Mori Kogoro on the other end of the corridor immediately turned his head, "Is it a new type of compound poison?" I haven't seen anything with similar symptoms. ”

Having learned about the drug trade chain on the island, he is not afraid to speculate about the situation on the island with the greatest malice.

Under Conan's guidance, he saw the poppy production area, this model of doing everything from the production side, no one would believe it if there was no chemical synthesis related part on the island. The police have already sent people to search several workshops on the island, and it is believed that the results will be obtained soon.

A place that is proficient in chemical engineering, who knows if it will make any new poisons?

"Our judgment is that there are no signs of poisoning, Mr. Maori." Without taking off his mask, the male forensic doctor who came with the team said sullenly, "There are many signs on the two deceased that they died of acute heart failure and other organ failure due to ischemia, and neither of them has a history of heart disease...... While it is indeed very bizarre, we cannot characterize it as poisoning. No similar signs were detected. ”

"What?!" Mori Kogoro shouted in a high voice.

In the next second, a cry higher than his voice came from outside the door.

"I'm going to turn myself in, I'm going to turn myself in!" A man who was still wearing home clothes, supported by his wife beside him, walked in crying, "I'm sorry, I'm guilty, police gentlemen, I'm guilty...... I, I assisted Hirata in transporting drugs, and because I knew the contents, I also charged a very high extra fee......"

Now, the rhythm has entered a familiar state.

Still thinking about the hundred ways to die of the monster thief with a black heart, Conan, who destroyed the world before he died, "......"

It's back, familiar flavors, it's back......

Go to bed early, I, have a splitting headache!

I will write it during the day tomorrow

I thought I could write about the awakening of Asai Narumi today...... Tomorrow by all means!
