I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 1 Taking the Blame at the Beginning

An abandoned wooden house deep in Mika Park.

Shiraishi Hui looked at the tied-up Xiaolan and Sonoko with some disbelief.

He couldn't help but wipe his eyes again and take another closer look!
That's right!

It really was Xiaolan and Sonoko.

What exactly is going on?

Shiraishi was very confused. How come the world had changed after she woke up from her sleep? And Xiaolan Yuanzi was tied up?

While he was still wondering, he suddenly felt dizzy.

Memories came flooding back one after another.

Gradually, Shiraishi Hui understood what was happening.

"Myself" is a student at Teitan High School. His parents died in a car accident. Unable to bear the blow, he became addicted to the pinball game Pachinko.

As expected, he lost everything he had.

Then he borrowed money from loan sharks, lost all his money, and ended up owing a lot of money to loan sharks.

Under the coercion and instigation of those loan sharks, he eventually embarked on the path of breaking the law and committing a crime - kidnapping Suzuki Sonoko.

"Oh, it's really a bad start." Shiraishi E sighed.

Kidnapping Suzuki Sonoko?

I really don’t understand anything, so I’m not afraid of anything.

Do you really think that the Suzuki Group's business expansion was all through legal and compliant business practices?
Anyone who can make a company big and strong must be involved in both black and white things, right?

Not to mention Japan where gangs are legalized.

Companies without any means would have been eliminated by the market long ago.

"But... as the daughter of a consortium, Suzuki Sonoko should have some bodyguards around her. How could she be kidnapped by me?" Shiraishi Ei was very confused about this.

Then memory gave him the answer.

The method of kidnapping Suzuki Sonoko was very simple.

"I" wrote a love letter to Suzuki Sonoko and easily tricked her here.

Xiaolan came along to join in the fun and was tied up as well.

“…………” Shiraishi Hui didn’t know what to say.

I can only sigh that love-brain is really easy to control.

Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things, just let them go.

Then apologize and try to get leniency. It would be best if they were magnanimous enough to forgive "your" mistake.

Just at this moment, Shiraishi Hui suddenly noticed a sound in her ears.

[Ding! The system is starting up...]

[The gangster system has been successfully activated. ]

【Successfully bound to the host! 】

【Congratulations to the host for receiving the novice benefits. 】

[You get the A-Zu mask, an AK47, a Glock pistol, and twenty universal magazines. ]

[Current mission: Obtain a total of 100 million yen in stolen money.]

"Give me this?" Shiraishi Hui was speechless after seeing it.

How could a young man like me, a law-abiding citizen, end up in this system?

It seems to be trying to make me go further down the path of breaking the law and committing crimes!

Don't do it, don't do it!

As a time traveler, he can reach the pinnacle of his life by plagiarizing Kudo Shinichi's reasoning results.

What kind of gangster are you?

Isn't this just narrowing the path yourself?

After thinking of this, Shiraishi Hui ignored the system, walked up to the kidnapped Xiaolan Yuanzi, and took the cloth out of their mouths.

"You...you...what do you want to do?" Sonoko said with a fearful face: "I...I advise you to let us go!" "As long as you let us go now, we can pretend nothing happened!!" Although Xiaolan was a little scared, she was still relatively calm.

"Huh? Really?" Bai Shi was immediately happy after hearing this: "As long as I let you go now, can you really pretend that this never happened?"

"???" The tied-up Xiaolan and Sonoko were obviously stunned for a moment.

They felt as if they had heard something wrong.

"Then it's a deal. I'll let you go, and you just pretend that nothing happened." Shiraishi Hui didn't give them a chance to regret.

He immediately used a knife to cut the ropes on their bodies.

"Okay! I've cut the rope, you can go." Shiraishi Hui took two steps back, threw away the knife in her hand, indicating that she was no longer in danger.

The development of the matter was far beyond the expectations of Xiaolan and Yuanzi.

For a moment, even though they had escaped, they were still unable to react and were at a loss.

Xiaolan and Sonoko looked at each other subconsciously, and could see confusion and doubt in each other's eyes.

Are you letting him go now?
Although confused, the two stood up and brushed the dirt and weeds off their skirts.

"Then...then let's...go?" Xiaolan said tentatively.

"Well, we can go now." Bai Shihui also pointed in the direction considerately and said, "The exit is over here. Just follow this path and you will be able to get out."

"Thank...thank you." After politely saying thank you as usual, Xiaolan quickly pulled Yuanzi towards the exit.

Although she didn't understand why the other party changed his mind, she decided to escape first.

"Wait a minute!" Yuanzi stopped and was reluctant to leave.

After kidnapping me, he suddenly let me go.

She felt itchy because she didn't understand the reason behind this!

Yuanzi looked at the kidnapper in front of her and asked in confusion: "Why did you suddenly decide to let us go?"

"Yuanzi!! This is not the time to talk about these things!" Xiaolan urged anxiously, worried that the other party would change her mind at the last minute and they would not be able to leave.

"Xiaolan, don't be nervous. If he doesn't want us to leave, we can't leave!" Sonoko didn't care. Instead, she looked at the masked kidnapper in front of her curiously, hoping that the other party could give her an explanation.

Xiaolan tried to persuade her again and again, but seeing that Sonoko had no intention of leaving, she reluctantly gave up the idea and stood silently in front of her, ready to go with a wary look on her face.

"Because I have a guilty conscience! I was confused for a moment and did something wrong!" Shiraishi Hui had no choice but to take the blame and admitted "her own" mistake.

He tried his best to gain their sympathy, hoping to make the matter smaller than it actually was.

So, Shiraishi E started to play the victim... Oh, this doesn't really count as playing the victim.

This was actually his current character background. He said, "Some time ago, my parents died in a car accident. And I got addicted to pachinko, and ended up owing a lot of gambling debts."

"Then the loan sharks persuaded me to do these illegal things."

"I don't know why I believed their lies and kidnapped you."

"Oh... now that I think about it, I'm really stupid."

"I hope you can forgive my immature behavior."

After getting this answer, the two girls' faces showed obvious sympathy.

Xiaolan, who was standing by, was no longer on guard. Her tone became much softer as she said, "So that's how it is. But it's great that you realized your mistake and didn't continue to make the same mistake. You turned back in time."

"Yeah. We forgive you!!" Sonoko finally felt relieved.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "Can you take off your mask? Let me see what you look like?"

"Otherwise I feel like this trip was a waste!"

"Yuanzi!!" Xiaolan was really anxious now.

What if the other party thinks that they have seen his face and is unwilling to let them go?
"Sure!" Before Sonoko could say anything, Shiraishi E readily agreed.

Even if he didn't take off the mask, Kudo Shinichi would quickly deduce that he was a student of Teitan High School based on the clue of the love letter.

Besides, I have already revealed my true identity just now.

It's no different from taking off a mask. A little investigation will tell you. It's better to be open about it.

As he said this, he took off the mask on his face to show his sincerity.

When Yuanzi saw that the kidnapper was a handsome young man, her eyes lit up, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and she muttered: "I think... since you have kidnapped me, you must be responsible for me!"
