Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

She looked at Zhiyong and stammered, "You... this... this is too sudden, I wasn't prepared at all. But, Sato-kun, I need to make this clear to you, I only like handsome guys, handsome guys, you understand? How could I like someone as ugly as you?"

Zhiyong originally just wanted to tease Suzuki Sonoko, but now he was really taken aback by her words.

Zhiyong's face darkened. He thought to himself, "Damn it, I may not be a handsome guy now, but I'm a far cry from ugly. Have you ever considered how others feel when you put me down like this?"

Now Zhiyong had no choice but to pretend to be hurt and helpless as he looked at Suzuki Sonoko.

……

Chapter 07: The First Encounter with a Case

Zhiyong said in a trembling voice, "Suzuki-kun, aren't fairy tales all about rich and beautiful girls falling in love with poor and losers, and then they live happily ever after? I thought it was true, but I didn't expect fairy tales to be all lies. I can't be your prince. I always believed that we would have a happy ending, just like in fairy tales."

At the end, Zhiyong shamelessly recited the lyrics from a fairy tale.

After hearing Zhiyong's words, Suzuki Sonoko stared wide-eyed, too shocked to utter a single word.

Zhiyong felt extremely pleased with himself when he saw Suzuki Sonoko's expression. He thought to himself, "You dare to criticize me and call me ugly."

Now that things have reached this point, we can't joke around anymore. Looking at Sonoko, she seemed a little lost.

Zhiyong then laughed heartily and left.

Sonoko Suzuki only realized what was happening at that moment.

She was being teased, and by someone she never expected.

Sonoko Suzuki was incredibly frustrated. She was always the one teasing others, but now she was the one being teased.

The Great Demon King is about to transform and kill this poor loser.

Sonoko Suzuki said angrily, "Tomoyuki Sato, you brat, you just wait, I'm not done with you yet."

Her loud shout drew the attention of many classmates, making Sonoko Suzuki feel embarrassed and quickly leave.

School life was quite pleasant, with less backstabbing and infighting.

This peaceful life made Zhiyong feel very comfortable.

Of course, there are exceptions. Ever since Zhiyong successfully flirted with Yuanzi, she has held a grudge against him and has been going against him in every way.

Sonoko is a decent person and hasn't done anything too outrageous; it's mostly just simple pranks.

Zhiyong didn't mind, and it was fine as it was, adding more color to his campus life.

Zhiyong's personality has changed somewhat at school, but the changes are not significant.

Zhiyong used to be rather introverted and didn't attract much attention, so even if he made some changes, no one would notice.

Of course, since Naoko Takei was Sato Tomoyuki's only reasonably good friend at the time.

While Zhiyong couldn't help Naoko Takei with her depression, he at least made her feel happy at school.

Therefore, Zhiyong would often go to Naoko Takei to play with her, tell her jokes, and tell her stories.

This made Naoko Takei trust Tomoyu completely.

Living in this kind of life, free from the troubles of his previous life, made Zhiyong feel extremely comfortable.

Of course, improving intelligence and courage through spatial enhancement will not be hindered.

During this period, some ghosts were collected.

But they were all ordinary ghosts who had died.

Zhiyong has not yet encountered any murdered ghosts.

As the space elf Avril once said.

Collecting the ghosts of murdered individuals, as well as those filled with resentment, generates even more energy.

However, this requires Zhiyong to enter the body of the recently murdered corpse; otherwise, he would have no chance at all.

Zhiyong originally thought that he would have to wait until Shinichi Kudo became Conan before he could get involved in the case.

However, to Zhiyong's great surprise, he encountered a murder case for the first time.

During summer vacation.

Zhiyong happened to be passing by an apartment building that day and noticed a crowd gathered at the entrance, with police maintaining order at the scene.

Then another police car drove up and stopped.

After the car was parked, a beautiful woman got out.

Zhiyong saw the person who came and smiled, waving and calling out loudly, "Sister Meihezi."

This beautiful woman is none other than Miwako Sato.

Sato Miwako walked up to Zhiyong and asked, "Zhiyong, what are you doing here?"

"I was just passing by and happened to see you. Has a case occurred here?" Zhiyong asked, puzzled.

“Yes, we received a report not long ago that someone had been murdered,” Sato Miwako replied.

"Miwako-neechan, can I go to the scene and take a look?"

"You're not a police officer, so it's not appropriate for you to go in."

"I'm very interested in solving cases and I'm currently learning about it. However, I've never been to a murder scene before. I just want to experience the atmosphere. It won't affect your work. Can I go and take a look?" Zhiyong said coquettishly.

"Well... alright then, but please don't interfere with the police's work," Sato Miwako said after a moment's hesitation.

"Thank you so much, sister," Zhiyong said happily.

Zhiyong followed behind Sato Miwako and entered the scene of the murder.

This was Zhiyong's first time at a murder scene.

After entering the room.

Zhiyong then received a notification from the space.

Zhiyong's main purpose in coming here this time was to collect the ghosts.

Now that we have obtained the ghost, we have accomplished our purpose in coming here.

In the time that followed, Zhiyong simply needed to observe how the police handled the case.

What Zhiyong didn't expect was that he would see two familiar people at the scene of the crime.

"Ran, what are you and Kudo doing here?"

Seeing Ran and Shinichi Kudo at the crime scene left Zhiyong very puzzled.

"Sonoko gave me a free manicure voucher. After I finished getting my nails done, I heard shouts, and Shinichi and I came here and found that Ms. Aida had been murdered," Ran replied.

Shinichi Kudo truly seems to possess the qualities of a Grim Reaper; as long as he's around, there's bound to be a murder case.

Zhiyong really didn't know how to solve the case.

But just now, Zhiyong collected the ghost of the deceased.

The deceased had only recently died, and although the ghost received some sunlight, it was still inside the room.

It's not too serious for ghosts.

Now that Zhiyong can extract the memories of a ghost before her death, he will immediately know who killed her.

Of course, with so many people present, it wasn't convenient for Zhiyong to access the memories on his own at the moment.

Therefore, Zhiyong had Avril extract the deceased's memories and then tell him who the murderer was.

It was only for a short while.

Avril's voice echoed in Zhiyong's mind: "The deceased was named Aida Momoko. She was a model. Because of her affair with her brother-in-law, photographer Tsubouchi Yuhei, she always felt guilty towards her sister. Today, she finally made up her mind to separate from Tsubouchi Yuhei. However, she did not expect that Tsubouchi Yuhei would kill her in a fit of rage."

So it turns out it's an unspeakable story between the brother-in-law and the sister-in-law.

As the ancients wisely said, gambling leads to theft, and adultery leads to murder.

This case once again proves the words of the ancients.

Momoko Aida originally wanted to turn back from her misconceptions.

But she didn't know that she had already been possessed by the devil, so how could she ask him to let go?

Zhiyong has also seen it, the once beautiful person lying on the ground.

It's a pity that she has now passed away and become a corpse.

Yuhei Tsubouchi is quite ruthless; he could be so cruel to such a beautiful woman.

She is, after all, his sister-in-law.

No matter what, he's enjoyed it for so long.

Is it like what people say: if you can't have it, then you should let no one else have it?

Chapter 08 This is an amateur's method

The police at the scene were conducting their investigation in an orderly manner.

Shinichi Kudo was also searching for clues at the scene.

Although Zhiyong had watched some crime-solving movies and TV shows.

But this is the first time Zhiyong has actually entered a murder scene.

When Zhiyong saw the corpse, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Although Zhiyong has collected some ghosts so far, he has actually seen very few corpses.

Miwako Sato has already started working.

Sitting in front of her was an injured man named Kosuke Kishi, who was the assistant to photographer Yuhei Tsubouchi.

“Mr. Kishi, please tell me about what happened at that time!” Sato Miwako asked.

“Okay, the three of us had already arranged to shoot a magazine cover for Ms. Aida at four o’clock this afternoon. Tsubouchi and I arrived at Ms. Aida’s apartment one after the other, but when we opened the door, suddenly there was a white light and I couldn’t see anything anymore. Then I was hit on the head with a stick.” Kishi Kosuke pointed to the spot on his head where he had been hit.

"What was the weapon used to attack Mr. Kishi?" Sato Miwako asked again.

"I don't know, but I feel like it's something like an iron bar," Kosuke Kishi said after thinking for a moment.
