Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

"One thing leads to another, the Hell Puppet Master is truly amazing," Ai exclaimed in admiration.

"Did the head fly out the window?" Haibara Mi asked, puzzled.

"No, it's in the private room next door."

"In the private room next door?"

"Yes, the other party used a rope to connect the head to the body. While everyone was taking cover because they were worried it was a bomb, the rope was used to pull the head into the adjacent private room. During this process, the balloons touched the thorns of the roses and exploded, so that no one would notice the trick of the balloons under the cloak."

"The Hell Puppet Master is truly extraordinary; he's even managed to anticipate everyone's psychology," Ai exclaimed in admiration.

"Yes, but are you really not going to expose the true identity of the Hell Puppet Master?" Haibara Mi asked curiously.

“Yes, the Hell Puppet Masters are from the Fantasy Magic Guild, so to avoid any accidents, you should avoid getting too close to them,” Zhiyong reminded them again.

"Then tell us who the Hell Puppet Master is, so we can be on guard," Ai asked.

"I won't tell you that for now, lest your expressions give you away. However, Kindaichi's abilities are extremely strong, and I believe he will definitely be able to find out who the real Hell Puppet Master is," Zhiyong replied with a smile.

"You think highly of him?" Ai asked, puzzled.

"Of course, never underestimate anyone's abilities, or you'll be the one who suffers."

"But you seem to be underestimating the Hell Puppet Master!" Ai said again.

Zhiyong looked at Xiao Ai and shook his head, saying, "I didn't underestimate him. The Hell Puppet Master's abilities are still very strong. It's just that I already know who the Hell Puppet Master is, but the Hell Puppet Master doesn't know anything about me. In this situation where the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, that's why I'm so confident."

What Chiyuu said to Haibara Mi and Ai is exactly what he is thinking right now.

Zhi Yong also didn't want to expose the true identity of the Hell Puppet Master for the time being.

Regarding what is happening now.

Zhi Yong simply treated it as a good show.

Now it's all been exposed.

In fact, Zhiyong needs to find evidence that can convince everyone.

That's too much trouble.

Besides, it wouldn't be bad to be able to collect ghosts.

After his space was upgraded to level two, Zhiyong felt that his mindset had also changed a bit.

It's not wrong to say that Zhiyong's mentality has become a bit arrogant these days.

Originally, Zhiyong had never fully integrated into this world after transmigrating there.

Now that his strength has increased, Zhiyong has developed a somewhat arrogant and disdainful attitude towards others.

Of course, this is due to the influence of one's personality in a previous life.

Zhiyong won't change his mindset so quickly.

But when it comes to human life, the respect they once had is gone.

In other words, they have lost their passion and no longer have the mentality of a passionate detective.

Therefore, the Hell Puppet Master kills.

If Zhiyong was in a good mood, he would easily solve the case.

Of course, this would be if the Hell Puppet Master didn't provoke Zhi Yong and his two companions.

Zhi Yong was too lazy to do anything.

This trip was solely for Haibara Mii to see the performance of the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

It's probably all over now.

After all, Kindaichi encountered a murder case, and it's rare for a case to involve only one person being killed.

Most of them are serial murder cases.

However, it's not a bad thing that Zhiyong is collecting ghosts on the sidelines.

Although relying on collecting ghosts to upgrade the space is no longer sufficient to meet the needs of space upgrades.

But even a small mosquito is still meat.

Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I'm just idling around.

Of course, there was another reason why Zhiyong was willing to come to Corpse Plains.

The remains were originally from a jadeite mining site.

Although the mining of jadeite rough has now been completed.

But Zhiyong was also willing to try his luck.

After all, the materials needed for space might be found here.

Therefore, when Haibara Mi suggested going to Shikohara to see the performance of the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

Zhiyong also had an indifferent attitude.

Only after checking the information about Shikohara.

Zhiyong had already changed his mind.

Even now, Zhiyong still doesn't know what the special substance that enhances the space is.

However, before that, Zhiyong obtained a special substance that could enhance the space.

They include rubies, black pearls, sapphires, and stone beads.

These are not the same type of item, but they all become special substances that can enhance the space.

That already explains it.

The special substance that can enhance space is not a single, unique item.

Zhiyong guessed that among various ores, there might be one that could enhance the energy of the space.

But that requires wisdom and courage to find.

The site of the skeletal remains was once a source of jadeite rough.

Perhaps there is a rough stone among them.

For some reason, it mutated into a special substance that can be absorbed by space.

This was just Zhiyong's guess.

But Zhiyong was willing to give it a try.

In the end, it doesn't matter if Zhiyong doesn't find it.

……

Chapter 224 Arrival at the Bone Plains

"We have arrived at the final stop, Shikohara Station. Passengers, please take your belongings with you as you disembark."

While Zhiyong and the others were chatting.

The train has entered the Bone Plains Station.

The station's announcement system also started playing.

Why are you checking our luggage?

"Yes, how could a corpse just disappear into thin air? Are you seeing things?"

When getting off the train.

At the train door, police officers were checking the luggage of all disembarking passengers.

After all, a small suitcase is definitely not enough to carry a corpse.

When checking the members of the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

This made them very dissatisfied, and they complained.

"But I saw it too, how could I be seeing things?"

"Could that be a new magic trick the captain is researching?"

Amidst the quarrel of the fantasy magic troupe.

After the inspection, Zhiyong and his two companions left the station and went to a nearby hotel.

This is the only luxury hotel in Shikohara, and the performances of the Fantasy Magic Troupe are held in an annex of this hotel.

This puzzled Zhiyong greatly.

I really didn't expect that.

They will choose this godforsaken place to perform.

Although the Bone Plains was once very prosperous because of its jadeite.

However, it was the raw jadeite that made him successful, and it was also the raw jadeite that ruined him.

After the jadeite rough stones have been mined out.

This is where things began to decline.

It is said to be in memory of Suzuko Chikamiya.

Five years ago, Suzuko Chikamiya died in an accident while practicing here.

Of course, Zhiyong knew that it must have been done by the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

The most likely candidates are the four disciples of Chikamiya Suzuko from the current Fantasy Magic Troupe.

It could be one person, or several people.

On the train, Fumio Yamagami, the leader of the Fantasy Magic Troupe, was likely one of the participants.

That's why he was killed by the Hell Puppet Master.

I just wonder who will be killed next?

Zhi Yong's lips curled up slightly as he thought about it.
