Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 213 Victims

You know yourself best. Mirai Ichi has self-awareness and knows your own character. Therefore, there are two things that surprise you about Mirai Ichi.

Surprise point [-]: How could there be a lover? !

Surprise point [-]: How can you say such nonsense as "I'm not sure whether my lover will fall in love with me again"?

"No matter who the other party is," Mirai Ichijo speculated reasonably based on his own knowledge, "I am the dominant party, right?"

In a normal interpersonal relationship, whether it is love, friendship, or other aspects, although it is mostly an equal relationship, sometimes there is a dominant person.

Ichijo Mirai is different. He has no normal interpersonal interactions and is the dominant one in all interpersonal interactions.

For example, the harmonious co-worker relationship with Gin Jiu, the tacit classmate relationship with Zhu Fu Jingguang, and the friendly interpersonal relationships with future FBI colleagues.

He is the leader in everything.

...Then it should be the same in love, right?

Mirai Ichijo can't imagine that he actually has an equal interpersonal relationship, or a relationship, let alone that the other person is the dominant one.

However, how could the leader not be sure ‘will she fall in love with me? ’.

system:【……】

It really wants to say stop thinking. The complete question is, ‘If you try it again and change some basic settings, will your lover fall in love with me? ’ is connected with ‘one more time’. There is no way to think about a future.

Even if you concentrate on thinking hard, you will not get any useful information. Instead, you will once again experience the subtle feeling of "tentacles going in and out of the brain to find things."

is a trap.

But I know Ichijo is very concerned about this matter in the future.

So after hesitating for a few times, he shifted his focus away from 'do it again' and completely shifted it to his lover: [Y-should it be? 】

It recalled, with some uncertainty: [I think you are the leader, but you said you are not. 】

A future: "..."

He stopped for a moment, thought, and asked slowly: "Have I been poisoned before?"

"Is it the kind of sequelae that once poisoned, will cause irreversible damage, such as affecting the brain, lowering IQ, not functioning well, and turning into a fool?"

"It's not necessarily poisoning, maybe overuse of anesthetics or something like that?"

Biao said, nodding convinced, "Oh, no wonder you need me, I see."

...If you don’t have a broken brain, how can you fall in love? How can you not be the dominant one!

[I feel that you are the leader,] the system repeated again, adding an extra sentence this time, [but you said not,]

[You feel that you cannot take the initiative to end this relationship, so you are not the dominant one. 】

You are about to get married and you still want to ‘take the initiative to end this relationship’?

Sure enough, it's not a good thing.

When you are dating this kind of person, is the other person a ‘lover’ or a ‘fiancée’? No, the victim.

A victim of eight lifetimes of bad luck.

Mirai Ichijo paused subtly before saying, "I guess when you exchanged these words, it was before you put on the ring."

This question will not reveal the identity of the lover, but will only reveal a piece of future privacy. The system frankly admitted: [Yes. 】

[When I found out that she was planning to propose marriage,]

A future: "..."

[You seem to be very repulsive to love, and even more repellent to marriage,] the system said, [she proposed marriage several times, and the first time, you refused, saying,]

It paused for a moment, as if it was struggling to organize the words, [...Marriage will affect wealth. 】

[You said that you have seen people whose families were ruined due to marriage, and who went from being rich and powerful to living on the streets. This has a great impact on their wealth. 】

A future: "?"

"...Didn't the victim immediately think urgently about how to plan a murder? In fact, he could think about it, and I don't mind."

[She said you don’t need wealth. 】

What does it mean not to need wealth?

Go grab it if you don’t have money? That's really not necessary. I don't need it now in the future.

[You rejected the second proposal.] The system is even more difficult. [You said that your mother has taken drugs. There may be some unknown drugs in your body. The child you give birth to may have problems. What if it is a child like yourself? Wouldn't it be tormenting yourself with such heartless things?】

[You said that you have seen a heartless child born from an unfortunate family. The family is broken up. There is a high probability that we will have an unfortunate future when we get married. Forget it, forget it.]

A future: "..."

Did this victim really not consider planning a murder?

[She said that you are obviously very kind-hearted and a soft-hearted god. Children like you are great. If you don’t like children, you don’t have to raise them. Just take a look at them when you have time. 】

...This victim, it seems, seems a little...

When Mirai Ichijo heard the first half of the sentence, his eyelids twitched and he was in awe, "He's so good at talking nonsense."

In the second half of the sentence, Ichijo Mirai was even more awe-struck, "So irresponsible."

Which black force guy is this guy?

organize? Animal tissue? FBI?

[The third proposal, you rejected it,] the system hesitated a little, [you said that the reason for the first two rejections was not a perfunctory rejection, but something that happened. You had an unfortunate childhood. Your father was a criminal who deceived your daughter's mother. However, when the child was about to reach adulthood and he had established himself in the company, he broke out and revealed his true colors. He happily occupied the magpie's nest and even threw dirty water to drive away the mother, causing her to die. However, the genes are hereditary and the child is like his father. Yes, you happily turned over the table and let your father chew the garbage,]

[You said that in order to prevent yourself from being too like your father and reducing yourself to chewing garbage, you should forget it. 】

A future: "..."

system:【……】

[...She said that she was very touched that you were willing to tell her this. She knew that you were not dismissing it perfunctorily, but a serious rejection after careful consideration, and you were telling the truth. 】

Is it really 'moved', not 'dare to move'?

Come up with a murder plan, really.

Ichijo is willing to take charge of all the steps before dumping the body.

The reason why the system hesitates is: [Is it true? 】

Ichijo Mirai did not answer directly, "Do you think I will tell the truth?"

"What about the fourth time?"

[For the fourth time,] the system replied, [You said her cheerful jumping movements are like a lively jumping rabbit,]

[You like rabbits, so you agreed. 】

Mirai Ichijo didn't even know that he liked animals like rabbits. He paused and ignored this section for the time being. He only looked at the failure cases. "The victim lady, is it a bit outrageous?"

How can you say words like 'kind and soft-hearted' and 'god'?

...It can’t be Belmode!

This guy has a lot of drama.

"It's decided," Mirai Ichichi said, "Find an opportunity to try out Belmode's mentality."

Also: "'Calvados.'"

This guy has a lot of drama.

"If you have time, try to figure out this guy's mentality."

Look who of these two guys can come up with similar nonsense.

Or, it's the same guy.

system:【……】

Two victims appeared, one was Belmod, and the other was still Belmod.   One Mirai said again: "But I am indeed the leader."

Even though I was proposed to, I couldn't say anything to end the relationship on my own initiative.

But he is indeed the leader.

It's just that this relationship is somewhat subtly complicated. Mirai Ichichi can smell a tacit secret, and he is sure that he and his lover have a special experience, so it evolves into something that looks like a normal relationship, but also something unusual. Like a normal love relationship.

...Having a special experience, falling in love is barely normal.

A future that is barely acceptable.

As long as you don't intentionally deceive your feelings, or get married to gain some kind of benefit, a future is acceptable.

And one more thing, "Rabbit,"

He thought for a moment and added the third person to be treated with, "Judy."

Officer Judy is a very cute police officer rabbit.

Maybe it’s because the lover’s name sounds the same as Officer Judy, so the lover is compared to a rabbit.

Three victims are tentatively identified.

In fact, in addition to these three, there is another one: Suzuki Sonoko.

Mao Lilan obviously has a boyfriend and is chasing someone with her best friend, so the level of suspicion is the lowest. Suzuki Sonoko took over the express, and the level of suspicion increased.

And, "This Miss Suzuki,"

Mirai Ichijo walked behind Suzuki Sonoko and observed her calmly.

Her shoes were outdoor shoes, with a layer of mud on the soles, and some snow that hadn't melted near the uppers. There were some splattered mud spots on the back of her calves, as if she had been running.

In addition, there were signs of falling. Part of her legs and skirt were stained with mud marks on her sleeves, as if she had been on the ground with her hands.

These traces can easily form a picture: Suzuki Sonoko was attacked, fell to the ground, and could only support the ground with her hands.

For ordinary people, being attacked is a very scary thing.

Encountering such a terrifying thing, I hurriedly returned to the villa without even having time to change my shoes. My first reaction was to go upstairs to find a future...

Ichijo's future was a little uncertain, "If she knew my identity, would she just run away, or would she praise me nonsense without changing her expression?"

Rationally speaking, he felt it was the former.

But while observing Suzuki Sonoko calmly and realizing that she seemed to have realized the dangerous situation just belatedly, she was a little scared and insecure, but her steps were also a little inexplicable, Ichijo The future is somewhat uncertain.

Suzuki Sonoko would look back from time to time.

Just as I happened to turn around and look at the previous one with a thoughtful look on the future, the absent-mindedness caused by fear immediately disappeared like a dark cloud meeting a sunny day.

What came to the surface was embarrassment and embarrassment, "I just fell down in the forest, so..."

"There's a ghost here, Mr. Future!"

Suzuki Sonoko pursed her lips, her eyes rounded a bit, and she looked very serious, "I just saw Xiaolan from a distance on the second floor, so I wanted to go find her,"

Because it thundered.

"But I just saw her and before I could say hello, I saw a terrifying figure appear behind her!"

Fear resurfaced, and she pursed her lips again, describing the terrifying figure, "That figure looked like a ghost in an old castle. It was wearing a black cloak, and its exposed face was layered with layers. white bandages, and his hands were also covered with dense bandages, and he was holding a huge axe."

She frowned a little, with an expression of disgust, repulsion and fear on her face. She turned her head to talk to Ichijo Mirai, while holding on to the stairs and walking down without looking back, "That monster is definitely some kind of ghost." ?!”

"When I found out, he was planning to attack Xiaolan!"

"After being called out by me, he looked at me steadily for a few seconds," Suzuki Sonoko frowned even more, "as if he wanted to remember me, and then slowly retreated behind other trees."

"When we chased him, he disappeared as if out of thin air!"

Hey, you still dare to chase me?

When they were about to reach the corner of the stairs, Mirai Ichijo signaled with his eyes.

Suzuki Sonoko turned back to the stairs without thinking, walked around the corner, turned to look at Mirai Ichijo again, and explained: "It was Conan who chased me."

She guessed that Ichijo Mirai liked children, so she opened her eyes and praised, "He is very brave. Xiaolan and I were still a little shocked, but he rushed forward directly, just like a detective."

It's just a defenseless kid chasing a ghost with an axe, kind of like sending him to his death.

They were actually going after Conan.

How dare a child catch up?

Mirai Ichijo has met Conan and knows that he is particularly sharp and that children have a unique perspective. He probably found some clues, such as Mr. Ghost's footprints.

He asked: "Is it snowing outside? Did that ghost gentleman leave any footprints on the ground?"

Suzuki Sonoko was stunned for a moment and recalled for a few seconds, "It seems there is?"

"Hey, I think I heard Conan talking about footprints," she tried to remember. "When we first chased him out, we didn't see the ghost at all, but he kept running as if he could see it until he was near the villa. Just stopped."

There is snow near the villa.

But many messy and indistinguishable footprints have been stepped on by the people in the villa, and it is no longer possible to distinguish the line of footprints from the ghost.

"I see."

Suzuki Sonoko was still looking over, her eyes fixed, her eyes somewhat bright, as if she thought Ichijo would say something suitable for a detective in the future.

And no matter what he said, she would nod and believe it without hesitation.

Mirai Ichijo paused.

In fact, he didn't care about this kind of gaze before, but after learning that 'One Future' actually had a lover...

This kind of gaze seemed to suddenly have a sense of existence.

Can't tell whether it's a good thing or a bad thing.

He smiled and asked a question to divert Suzuki Sonoko's attention, "In other words, that Mr. Ghost actually has footprints?"

"And finally disappeared near the villa?"

Isn't this a little strange?

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes flashed, and she understood what was being said, "You mean, it's a human being?!"

She thought for a moment, then realized with some hesitation, "That bandage weirdo seems to be gasping for air. When he stared at me, he seemed to be gasping for air!"

"The body is heaving, and the hand is holding the ax tightly, as if he is panting in discomfort!"

"Is it really human?!"

She no longer stared at a future so intently, but began to think hard about the problem.

Mirai Ichijo added some information, "If it is a human being, then why does it wrap its face and hands with bandages, and wear a cloak?"

This question is actually a normal question that people who are attacked by bandage monsters should think about.

The premise is to be calm and rational enough.

Suzuki Sonoko was a little panicked before, and because the bandage weirdo disappeared without a trace near the villa, she was afraid that something would happen to Ichijo when she was alone in the future, so she didn't think too carefully about it, but now she started to think about it seriously.

Because the person who asked the question was a future, she thought very carefully, so she quickly realized something:

"...cover your face?"

The Bandage Man uses bandages to cover his face.

Why cover your face?
