Chapter 1378 From Detective to Investigator(2/2)

Facing Qin Zhibo's instructions, Conan helplessly complained, "I know, I'm not a child..."

"But even if I don't do anything, it's really suspicious that that woman suddenly transferred to Didan Elementary School."

"Could it be that Haiyuan and I's identities have been exposed, so that woman..."

What Conan said is what Qin Zhibo is most worried about right now.

I don't know whether this "Asaka" is an enemy or a friend. If she were a member of the organization and had indeed obtained some evidence, she might not hesitate to take action instead of lurking like this.

In addition, if you think of a case where you disguise yourself as someone and lurk nearby, the first thing that comes to mind is that woman.

"The only way you can do now is to remain unchanged in response to all changes and maintain this status quo."

There was a trace of calmness in Qin Zhibo's eyes, "If there is a suitable opportunity, I will meet that girl..."

Although I don’t know whether that woman is black or red, she is the “important legacy” left by Amanda, and I will have to come into contact with her sooner or later.

At this moment, Conan drooped his face and asked, "I've told you what I know. Now can you tell me what happened on the ship?"

Qin Zhibo did not lie this time. He nodded and responded: "Yes, since we are partners, it is natural to share information..."

Conan grinned: Haha, didn't you want to tell me just now?

"But there is one thing I want to say in advance. Some truths are not the end of a mystery, but maybe the beginning of a greater unknown."

"If you don't want to fall into the unknown abyss, maybe you shouldn't explore too much from the beginning..."

Qin Zhibo's words are more like a disclaimer.

Conan may have the obligation to know, but he also has the right not to let him know.

Of course, if Conan must know, he must be aware of it and understand that this world is not just about fishing lines, cyanide, and bullet smoke.

There are also some indescribable and terrifying existences that humans cannot understand.

If you make an argument based on the premise of the existence of such horrors, you will inevitably lose the essence of detective reasoning.

Until then, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him "investigator".

Conan looked up at Qin Zhibo, thought for a moment with a heavy face, and then raised his head with a smile.

"Even if I want to escape from the 'unknown' now, it's already too late..."

"Isn't it?"

After coming back from the parallel world, Conan knew that this world was far from as simple and pure as it seemed.

Magic, aliens, time travel, and parallel universes are all real.

Even if you ignore them, they do exist and exert influence in some hidden corner of the earth.

It would have been better if I didn't know about their existence before.

But when the door to the new world is opened, even if it is just a gap, it will be difficult to take back the heart of seeking.

Whether it is to seek the truth of this world or to protect the people he cares about in a universe full of infinite unknowns, this story that he started by himself can only continue to be written.

Because if more people are to be spared the pain of knowing the truth, a few people will inevitably have to bear more pain.

Qin Zhibo looked into Conan's eyes and saw some determination and persistence in those blue eyes.

After getting along for such a long time, there have been suspicions, disputes, and cooperation, and the two have already formed a certain tacit understanding.

Therefore, Qin Zhibo was not surprised by Conan's choice.

In other words, this is Conan.

No matter what kind of unknown you face, have the courage to explore.

"All right."

Qin Zhibo spread his hands, "Then let me tell you what happened on the "Aphrodite" from my perspective..."



On the deck of the ship, the three little ones, Moori and his daughter, Suzuki Sonoko, Dr. Agasa, and Haibara Ai, were sitting in a circle, still eating breakfast.

"This experience was really terrible. I really don't dare to take a boat in the future..."

Suzuki Sonoko drank a bag of hot milk, spread her hands and complained.

Mao Lilan smiled and comforted: "This kind of thing is also very unlikely..."

"And if we don't take a boat, it will be very inconvenient to travel in the future, right?"

"Even if you don't take a boat, there are many transportation options available, such as cars, airplanes, etc..."

At this point, Suzuki Sonoko rolled her eyes and suddenly said excitedly: "That's right! The train!"

"Trains are the safest means of transportation in the world, so let's take the train next time, right?"

"Take a train?" Mao Lilan next to him was stunned.

"That's right!" Suzuki Sonoko turned to look at the three little ones and Haibara Ai, and said with a smile: "The unpleasant experience I gave you several this time will be blamed on me, Suzuki Sonoko!"

"As compensation, I invite you all to take a ride on the mysterious train next time!"

The three little ones looked puzzled and said in unison: "Mysterious train?"

"yes!"

Suzuki Sonoko raised a finger and introduced: "Mystery Train is a special line of the Suzuki Express train built by our Suzuki Foundation..."

"That line is only open once a year. In addition to the luxurious ride experience and the travel scenery along the way, the train also provides a mysterious reasoning puzzle as usual."

“I heard it’s very exciting!”

"Mystery puzzle!"

When the keyword was triggered, the three little ones were immediately excited and their eyes shone.

But Haiyuan Ai took a small bite of the toast in her hand and was unmoved.

Suddenly, her sixth sense seemed to be activated by something, and she immediately turned her head to look in a certain direction.

But all he could see were passengers having breakfast on blankets, and no suspicious person was seen.

Dr. Ali next to him noticed something strange about Haihara Ai, turned around and asked: "Xiao Ai, what's wrong?"

"If you want to visit Dr. Cheng Shi, I'll go with you after breakfast..."

Haibara Ai, who found nothing, retracted her gaze, said softly "Hmm", and continued to eat the bread in her hand while listening to Suzuki Sonoko's introduction about the mysterious train.
