The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

Who knows if he'll encounter other criminals with even more outrageous motives in the future?

Before he transmigrated, he had heard that there were a lot of cases in the later original episodes of Detective Conan that could be watched as comedies, but at that time he had never actually watched those breathtaking cases, at most he had only watched some parody videos.

For the sake of his eyes, Jiang Hang sincerely hoped that those cases happened in a parallel world, otherwise he might not be able to control his urge to hit someone.

Thanks to the case retrospective function brought by his assassin bloodline, Jiang Hang was forced to watch the entire mental journey of how the criminal went from being a procrastinator to a psychopath.

Normally, these memory recollections would only last for half a minute to a minute at most. However, perhaps because the criminal's experiences spanning four years were so rich, even after Jiang Hang had dealt with the criminal and the plainclothes police officers were almost there, he was still replaying the criminal's experiences in his mind's eye.

He rubbed his head and then gently massaged his eyes.

However, this gesture of rubbing one's head to relieve stress appeared to Conan in a completely different light.

Jiang Hang's observation skills were indeed the best he had ever seen. Not to mention him, even his father would not have been able to find him so easily in a stadium with tens of thousands of people.

When Conan saw Jiang Hang lock onto the photographer on the court who was facing them, he thought he had figured out Jiang Hang's reasoning—the criminal would definitely prepare a plan to avoid being discovered by the police before committing the crime, and what identity would be the least noticeable on the court?

In the past, hadn't Jiang Hang often used this kind of reverse reasoning and hypothetical reasoning to deduce the identity of the real culprit in front of him?

Therefore, Conan initially thought that Jiang Hang was using the same method this time, and even felt that although he was a little slow to react, he had at least learned and grasped Jiang Hang's reasoning.

But seeing Jiang Hang's listless appearance, Conan couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that Jiang Hang used his meticulous observation skills to scan all 56,000 audience members in a very short time and then used his hypothetical reasoning to find out the identity of the culprit?

It sounds like a fantasy, after all, how could a normal person's brain work like a computer? But if it's Jiang Hang, then... it's not so strange?

If that's the case, then Conan finds it even harder to accept.

After all, reasoning ability can be improved through learning, but this kind of computer-like precise observation ability is something Conan can't learn even if he wanted to.

Jiang Hang had no idea that his somewhat weary state after reading about the psychological journeys of a bunch of criminals was being imagined in such a way by Conan.

If he were to use his ability to rewind on Conan one day and discover that he had been "dehumanized" to this extent in Conan's eyes, he would probably be completely baffled.

Although Conan's reasoning is actually quite accurate.

Jiang Hang actually used Altaïr's shared Hawkeye to first filter out 99.9% of the more than 50,000 viewers, and then analyzed the identity of the murderer from the remaining 0.01%.

However, as his physique continues to improve and the assassin bloodline within him continues to reawaken, using Hawkeye is no longer the restrictive technique he used to be, requiring him to rest for most of the day after only a dozen seconds of use.

After resting for a while, the plainclothes police officers arrived at Jiang Hang's location one after another under Inspector Megure's command.

The first to arrive was Takagi Wataru, whom Jiang Hang knew well. Upon learning that the culprit was actually a cameraman from Nichiri TV, he couldn't help but wipe his forehead.

They had spent so much time searching in the audience; if Jiang Hang hadn't intervened, the police would have lost face again.

“This guy is yours to take back and question him properly. I think his reasons for seeking revenge against Nichiri TV must be quite interesting,” Jiang Hang said, handing the prisoner’s pistol to Takagi Wataru and patting him on the shoulder.

Although Takagi Wataru didn't know why Jiang Hang said that, as a police officer, he naturally assured Jiang Hang: "Don't worry, no matter what he's trying to hide, we'll definitely be able to get everything out of him!"

With Takagi Wataru taking the unconscious assailant away, and another police officer discovering the handgun that the other assailant had hidden in the stadium, the case came to an end.

The entire process, from Jiang Hang arriving at the stadium to dealing with the criminals, took only about twenty minutes. In fact, the second half of the soccer match had only just begun when Inspector Megure and his team drove back to the Metropolitan Police Department with smiles on their faces.

However, Jiang Hang couldn't just leave with the two prisoners like the police.

The people who grabbed him were high-ranking executives from Nichiri TV. They were urgently raising 1 billion yen when suddenly the police and Jiang Hang joined forces and took down the two armed robbers. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.

They immediately demanded that the broadcast director make sure Jiang Hang stayed no matter what.

In the last TV station murder case, Jiang Hang wanted to make that rich but foolish old man, Suzuki Jirokichi, stand out. However, Suzuki Jirokichi's performance in front of the camera was stammering, and he almost caused a live broadcast accident.

No matter what, they were unwilling to let Jiang Hang off the hook this time and insisted on coming over in person to thank him for once again helping Nichibumi TV.

Jiang Hang was initially reluctant to agree, but in a few months, by the beginning of next year, Ultraman, whose first phase of filming had already been completed, would be broadcast on their television station. Unless Jiang Hang could buy Nichiuri Television right now, he had to give them this much face.

Chapter 401: Chapter 397: How about buying a TV station to play around with? (Revised)

Honestly, if given the chance, Jiang Hang would really like to acquire his own private television station and then broadcast whatever he wants on it.

After all, most Japanese television stations are privately owned, but their operating models differ significantly from those in China.

Television stations in China aren't complicated.

At the top is CCTV, followed by various local satellite channels. These channels can be searched nationwide. Below that are the economic and general channels of each province, and then the local TV stations in cities and counties. This hierarchical arrangement makes it easy to understand the hierarchy, with only a few additional pay-TV channels.

The situation is different in Japan.

There is only one television station that can be received nationwide, NHK, as a public media outlet; all other television stations can only broadcast locally.

You can't find Tokyo TV stations in Osaka, and similarly, you can't watch Osaka TV programs directly in Tokyo.

It was under these circumstances that the broadcasting model of the Lianbo Network, which relies on the joint efforts of private television stations in various regions, came into being.

The Lianbo Network can actually be seen as a broadcasting network similar to the news broadcast, where multiple television stations from different regions broadcast the same set of programs.

If a TV program on the same network has high ratings at a certain time, everyone will watch that program together.

If the network is large enough, ensuring that at least one television station in every region of Japan joins the network, the same programs can be watched throughout Japan.

To be honest, there are only five television networks in Japan that can span the entire country. This means that although Japanese television stations are everywhere, only a few are truly memorable.

Jiang Hang was also stunned when he heard it from Shizuka Sakaki. He never thought that watching TV could be so interesting.

However, there is one advantage to playing this game: everything is based on viewership ratings.

Although the five major private television networks now dominate the market, it doesn't mean that other networks and smaller television stations that haven't joined them are doomed.

If your show is good and has a large audience, advertisers will naturally come to you and give you money.

As the number of advertisers increases, smaller TV stations from other regions will naturally want to join your network and become part of your network. You reap the rewards, while those smaller TV stations get a few sips of the soup.

Jiang Hang, who comes from another world, has never been slacking off in this regard. As long as he can take the first step, he might actually be able to add his own TV station to the top of Japan's current five major private TV stations.

Of course, it's a bit far off to think about these things now, since he doesn't even have a TV station yet. But this meeting with the executives of Nichiri TV will be a good opportunity to ask them about these matters.

However, because of the commotion caused by these two thugs, the entire Nichiuri TV station is now extremely busy.

First and foremost, of course, is the game that is still going on. Before this game ends, they absolutely cannot afford any more mistakes and must ensure that the remaining time of the game can proceed smoothly.

Then we need to send someone to the Metropolitan Police Department to follow up on the two thugs and find out why they specifically targeted Nichiri TV for blackmail.

Finally, there's the potential public pressure this incident might bring to the TV station, and we need to come up with a reliable contingency plan as quickly as possible.

If it got out that the people who were extorting money from the Japanese television station included employees of their own station, what would the general public think?

Meeting with Jiang Hang was not only to express gratitude, but also a preparation to reduce public pressure.

After all, Jiang Hang is now an advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department, and in this case, he personally subdued the armed criminal on the scene.

If he could personally participate in one of the detective programs on Nichiri TV and explain the details of the case from a slightly television station-centric perspective, it would obviously greatly reduce external doubts about their television station.

It would be best if Jiang Hang could also serve as a special consultant for that detective show on their TV station.

In return, the tokusatsu series called Ultraman, which Jiang Hang's tokusatsu company will broadcast on their channel early next year, will receive better promotion on their television station.

Of course, while these things have been verbally confirmed, the specific details will have to be discussed in detail after the game ends, in a suitable place.

Jiang Hang also plans to have a good talk with them about the TV station. Maybe before long, he will have another TV station under his name.

Besides Nichibumi TV, the head of the J1 League and the managers of the two teams also came to express their gratitude to Jiang Hang. They not only invited Jiang Hang and Conan and their group to watch the game in the best VIP seats in the entire stadium, but also gave Jiang Hang a lifetime VIP status in the J1 League, so that he could enter the game for free whenever he wanted to watch a J1 League match.

In addition, the manager of Tokyo Spirits, whose team will win the league title this year if they win this match, sincerely invited Jiang Hang to attend the team parade after the league ends to celebrate their championship victory.

Their gratitude towards Jiang Hang is also easy to understand.

If a shooting were to occur on the field, regardless of who was hit or whether their life was in danger, it would have a significant negative impact on the reputation of the J1 League and both teams.

A lifetime VIP membership is really nothing special.

Moreover, Jiang Hang felt that even with such an honorary title, he estimated that he would never make a special trip to the stadium to watch a few football matches in his lifetime.

After all, he was just a casual fan, and he was fine with occasionally watching a few games for fun, but he really couldn't explain much about the specific rules of football.

To be honest, this lifetime VIP membership is really better given to Conan. After all, Conan, who can kick satellites with a soccer ball, is a true core soccer enthusiast.

After finally dealing with all the people who came to express their gratitude, Jiang Hang's surroundings finally quieted down a bit.

Only then did Jiang Hang have time to talk to Conan about what had happened in Osaka.

After hearing about Yusuke Sakata, Conan's reaction was pretty much what Jiang Hang had imagined.

Conan and Heiji Hattori are essentially the same kind of people. Even if they sympathize with Yusuke Sakata's plight, they won't stand by and watch him continue to commit crimes.

Upon hearing that Yusuke Sakata had "fled to escape punishment," Conan was initially surprised, but then fell into deep thought.

He's probably wondering right now where Yusuke Sakata has run off to.

Moreover, under Jiang Hang's deliberate guidance, Conan's attention was quickly drawn to the "mysterious organization" that also had a strong presence in the case.

"This mysterious organization... could it be that organization?" Conan made a judgment with some doubt.

Jiang Hang had originally planned to shift the blame onto the brewery, so he nodded to Conan and said, "Shiho Miyano has already confirmed the identity of that Numabuchi Kiichiro. He is indeed a defector from the brewery. Although the identity of the deceased Goji Sotaro cannot be confirmed yet, according to her judgment, the things found in Goji Sotaro's house seem to be in the brewery's usual style, so the probability is at least 80%."

"I briefly mentioned the organization to Hattori Heiji, telling him to be vigilant during the investigation and to hand it over to the Japanese Public Security Bureau. However, judging from his single-minded focus on bringing Sakata Yusuke back, I don't know how much he actually listened to."

Upon hearing this, Conan subconsciously began to wonder if Sakata Yusuke's disappearance was also related to that organization.

Jiang Hang did not say anything more about this.

After all, all we need to do now is give Conan a basic impression of Sakata Yusuke's situation. Going into too much detail would only make Conan realize that something is amiss.

Since this incident involves the Black Organization, it doesn't seem surprising that Jiang Hang and his team failed to capture Sakata Yusuke.

In Conan's mind, either that organization took action to eliminate Yusuke Sakata, or Yusuke Sakata was recruited into that organization and his traces were erased by that organization, making it impossible for anyone to find his whereabouts.

Regardless of the method, given the distillery's style, they obviously wouldn't leave too many loopholes. In fact, to avoid being discovered, they could use even more drastic measures to conceal their existence.

As Conan dealt with that organization more and more, he gradually understood the Black Organization's modus operandi. Therefore, when it came to Yusuke Sakata's escape from justice, he only sighed slightly in his heart and stopped thinking about it.

Even at this moment, Conan, like Shizuka Sakaki and the other girls, was a little worried about whether this defeat would have any impact on Jiang Hang's mentality.

After all, when Conan was still Shinichi Kudo, he encountered many cases that he couldn't solve on his own, which made him doubt his own reasoning abilities. It wasn't until he gradually learned from his mistakes and grew up that such situations became less and less frequent.

Once he became Japan's top high school detective, he had essentially reached maturity and rarely encountered cases he couldn't solve. Even when faced with a difficult case, he wouldn't feel frustrated.

But Jiang Hang was different. He suddenly left a brilliant mark in the sky like a shooting star. He solved many cases for the police right away, and later gained the upper hand in several battles with the winery. He never suffered any losses.

However, although meteors are dazzling, they are also fleeting. Conan was really worried that if Jiang Hang encountered a case that he couldn't solve one day, he might be discouraged and become depressed.

However, judging from Jiang Hang's current attitude, he doesn't need to worry about Jiang Hang at all; Jiang Hang's mindset is much better than he thought.

Having just returned from Osaka, Jiang Hang handled the shooting threat incident with ease. If Jiang Hang hadn't brought up the Osaka incident himself, Conan would never have realized that he had recently experienced a failure.

After Jiang Hang told him about his experiences in Osaka, Conan chatted with Jiang Hang about some case-related matters while casually mentioning the current situation on the field to this casual fan.

Finally, as the whistle blew to end the second half, the Tokyo Spirits team, which Conan had favored, secured a comfortable victory, thus clinching the league championship three rounds early.
