Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

When Mariko gave a rough description, he was probably between twenty and thirty years old. He was thin, about 1.7 meters tall, and looked like a drug addict with messy hair.

According to Mariko Toma's description.

Zhiyong took out paper and pen and quickly drew a portrait of the murderer.

After the portrait was drawn, it was confirmed by Mariko that it looked exactly like the murderer.

We must catch the murderer quickly this time.

The fact that the killer is killing people in increasingly shorter intervals indicates that his thirst for blood is growing stronger.

This time it was reduced to four days.

If they commit another crime, it will be in about two days.

From this case.

The murderer killed Mariko but did not take her blood. Instead, he took her daughter and took Sakura's blood.

This explains it.

Now, the murderer not only has requirements regarding the quantity of blood, but also the quality of the blood.

Therefore, if he commits another crime, he will target children.

Zhiyong needed to get to the Metropolitan Police Department quickly to tell Inspector Megure about the matter and get them all involved.

Find the murderer quickly.

This time, they collected the ghosts of Sakura and her daughter, whose plight evoked sympathy from Tomoyuki.

Therefore, he decided to let the two of them live in the space this time, making them the first residents of the space.

The upgrade of the space no longer relies primarily on ghosts, so Zhiyong is no longer too concerned about this.

Previously.

Zhiyong then planned to collect some ghosts in the space and let them live there.

Just like before.

The space is still a bit too small.

Zhiyong had too many things stored away, so they didn't start.

This time it's time to start implementing it.

Now we are in space.

Wisdom and courage are divine.

Although he cannot create things due to his limited abilities, changing certain situations is not a problem.

Zhiyong divided the space into two parts.

He used part of it to store items, and the rest he used to house ghosts.

Of course, for now.

This place is still a wasteland; it needs to be developed so that it can truly be inhabited.

However, things are a little better now.

Ghosts don't need anything.

As long as they are in the space, they don't need anything else.

Therefore, this gave Zhiyong time to develop gradually.

Zhiyong gave them a tent to live in for the time being, and said that once the place was fully developed, they would be given a better place to stay.

Of course, since they have become ghosts, they no longer need to eat.

They only need to absorb the spiritual energy in the space, which is equivalent to eating.

There isn't much spiritual energy in the space right now.

Therefore, this aspect needs to be controlled.

Zhiyong instructed Avril to collect all the spiritual energy in the area and give it to them when they needed it.

This is essentially providing them with food, a temporary benefit for them.

……

Chapter 568 He Leveled Up

In this respect.

Zhiyong still needs to think about it.

When we collect more ghosts in the future, it will be easier to manage them.

Of course, what ghosts need to eat is spiritual energy.

There isn't much spiritual energy in this space right now.

Therefore, too many ghosts can no longer reside here, which necessitates limiting the number of ghosts.

Only if the space is upgraded again will it likely increase the spiritual energy.

Only then will it be possible for more people to live there.

When Zhiyong arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department.

Inspector Megure and the others have all returned.

The brutality of the killer in this case gave Inspector Megure and his team a new perspective.

Inside the meeting room.

Inspector Megure said coldly, "This killer is too inhuman. He could even harm such a young child. We need to find him quickly to prevent more victims."

Mori nodded and said, "Yes, Zhiyong has already analyzed that the murderer's thirst for blood makes the time between his crimes getting shorter and shorter. If the previous analysis is correct, the murderer will commit his next crime within two days."

Miwako nodded and said, "That's right, we must bring him to justice before he commits another crime."

Now everyone understands.

Just as the three of them said.

The murderer's time frame for committing crimes is getting shorter and shorter.

If anyone else is killed, they will all be held accountable.

Zhi Yong said, "Judging from today's situation, the murderer has upgraded his skills once again."

Inspector Megure asked, puzzled, "Upgrade? What does that mean?"

Zhiyong had always been helpful to the police.

After reviewing the case materials this time, I was able to analyze some very useful clues.

Therefore, when he says this now, everyone is watching him.

Outside the conference room.

Conan listened intently to what Zhiyong was saying through the listening device.

When the incident just happened.

He quietly followed them into the police car.

However, the police did not allow him to enter the scene of the murder.

After all, even some police officers are not used to the current situation.

As for a child like Conan, he would definitely not be allowed to enter.

Therefore, in many situations...

He only heard it through the listening device.

When he later went to the factory to look for Sakura, Mori didn't let him go with him, so he had no way to go.

Although just now.

He also heard the police's account of the factory, which made him extremely angry.

However, he knew too few clues.

Therefore, he had no way to reason.

Now that he heard Zhiyong was going to deduce again, he listened attentively.

Although Zhiyong knew about Conan's situation outside, he didn't bother with it.

He explained, "We had already analyzed the case before. In the first case, the murderer was probably thirsting for blood, which is why he suddenly killed someone. We also saw from the scene that the victim was random, the murder weapon was random, and the container he used to drink blood was random."

As he spoke, he pulled out the photo again.

He then posted photos of the second case, saying, "In the second case, the victim and the murder weapon were still random, but he chose the container he used to drink the blood. This shows that he had a more advanced need. In the third case, he did not drink the blood at the scene, but took the blood away. This is another step forward for him."

Zhiyong also brought out photos from the third case for everyone to see.

Previously.

He had already analyzed these points, and everyone understood them, so no one asked any questions and just listened to him continue.

Zhi Yong continued, "In this case that has just occurred, the murderer's needs have increased. Just like ordinary people, once we have solved the problem of survival, we have requirements for the quality of life. For example, it is not enough for us to just wear warm clothes, and it is not enough to just eat enough. For the murderer, he is no longer just asking for the quantity of blood, but also for the quality of blood."

Miwako asked, "Is it what you said before, that he wants cleaner, fresher blood?"

Zhiyong nodded and said, "That's right. Therefore, in the fourth case, the murderer killed Mariko but did not take her blood. Instead, he took her daughter Sakura and drained Sakura's blood at the factory."

After listening to Zhiyong's explanation, everyone agreed with his analysis.

Miwako continued, "So you mean that if the murderer commits another crime, he won't target women, but children instead?"

Zhi Yong replied, "That's right. Actually, from the very first case, although the victims were chosen randomly, they weren't chosen arbitrarily. He chose to target women not only because he wasn't very strong and was afraid of making a mistake when dealing with men, but also because he believed that women's blood was cleaner than men's."

Inspector Megure asked, "So this means that at the beginning, although he craved blood, he still hoped to drink clean blood, right?"

Zhi Yong nodded and said, "That's right. Therefore, I think the next time the murderer commits a crime, his target will definitely be a younger girl."

Miwako immediately said, "Sakura is eleven years old this year. If she were a younger girl, she would be under ten years old."
