Conan: I can see keywords

Although the proportions are small, the house numbers on the doors are clearly visible, from left to right:

Two of spades, three of spades, four of spades.

Exit the door interface and look at the floor.

The left half of the floor is a living room. I can’t tell from the notebook what facilities are inside, but I think it’s pretty good.

If Lingchuan's guess was correct, if the disappeared money was really used by the notebook to legally "purchase" the facilities needed for the base.

It’s not hard to imagine how powerful a notebook would be!

Such a powerful thing, and the only price to pay for using it is a nosebleed?

Lingchuan really loves it!

"How many surprises do you have that I don't know about?" Lingchuan held the notebook and felt an urge to hide it.

This state of excitement lasted for a long time before Lingchuan completely adjusted himself.

He pulled out spade 234 from the deck and placed it in front of him, looked at it, and finally solemnly wrapped up the spade two and put it aside.

He collected the other cards and put them in his newly bought safe.

However, he thought about it, took out the cards again, put them in an ordinary card box, and stuffed them into the first drawer of the bedside table.

“I always feel like it’s not safe anywhere I put it.”

This state only exists for Lingchuan when he first begins to realize the magic of the notebook.

I didn't expect to experience it again now.

"No one will pay attention to you, Lingchuan, calm down. No one will stare at you..."

Is it really?

I don't know why I suddenly thought of Ping Xiangnaizi, and Lingchuan's voice of self-comfort gradually became smaller.

He felt that he might be suffering from paranoia, and always felt that everyone wanted to harm him! Conan was, and now even Nako was...

"I hope I'm just overthinking it." Lingchuan comforted himself. When he put the cards away and stood up, the phone on the table rang.

He answered the phone without paying special attention to the caller ID because few people knew his phone number, except Conan, who gave it a special ringtone.

The only other people who knew his phone number were his boss, Naizi, and Tanvid.

"It should be the boss, right?" Lingchuan thought.

After all, I skipped work yesterday and didn’t go to the company today.

"Hey?"

"Lingchuan-kun~ It's me~"

Lingchuan paused while tidying up the table and said, "Ah, it's Naizi..."

"You seem very unhappy. Did something happen to you?" Naizi was very sensitive to Lingchuan's mood.

"By the way, why did you leave work early yesterday? I was waiting for you but there was no sign of you."

"Well, I came back suddenly because of something."

"Are you feeling unwell?" Naizi asked in a worried tone, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"No, I'm fine."

"You're lying. You fainted at your doorstep last time."

"I'll go find you. Are you home?"

There was a noise on the line, as if someone was rummaging through something on the table.

Lingchuan listened silently, and the moment Naizi opened the door, he spoke, "No need, Naizi, I've already asked for leave, and I plan to go out and relax."

“Eh~?”

"Lingchuan, are you going on a long journey?"

"um, yes."

The other end of the phone fell silent, and then there was another strange sound.

"It's so sudden..." Naizi seemed very disappointed, "Lingchuan didn't tell me anything."

"Because it was a last-minute decision, nothing was planned yet. I just thought of it and decided to go."

"Well, if I suddenly join in, will Lingchuan be unhappy?"

Chapter 22: The Island at the Bottom of the Valley

Lingchuan didn't reply immediately.

Maybe Nako was just saying it casually, but he sounded like she was serious and took it to heart.

"Of course not," he said, "If Nako wants to come, she can ask for leave."

"Hey, Lingchuan is still so easy to talk to, but never mind. If you want to go out and relax, it's better to go alone, right?"

Is it compensation?

Or was it really an unintentional act?

"Then I'll trouble you Nako for the next few days," Lingchuan smiled, "After I leave, Nako will have to deliver a lot of goods."

"Asshole, remember to compensate me when you come back~" Tsubo Kanako was not angry. She chatted with Lingchuan for a while before hanging up the phone.

Lingchuan, who was staring at his phone in a daze, suddenly felt his body a little cold.

"I hope I'm wrong..."

How could Nako spy on him?

Right?

Tanvid opened the package he received today with a nervous mood.

This time the package was noticeably heavier, and after opening the box, a small card and a deck of cards appeared.

He first opened the deck and took out the cards inside.

“This is… huh?”

Among the fifty-four cards, the only outlier is actually not easy to be discovered, but Tanvid, who has experienced the task of tracking Conan, is much more cautious this time.

He examined it carefully and soon found the two of spades in the center of the cards.

The strange touch was transmitted from the fingertips to the brain, and Tanvid suddenly became interested.

"What a strange material..."

The card in his hand was dark gold in color, with a very complex pattern on the back and an obvious circular mark below the number '2' printed on the front.

Tanvid curiously reached out to touch it.

The cards in my hand suddenly folded up and finally turned into hard chips the size of two coins.

"Hiss..." Such a sci-fi scene shocked Tanvid.

"Such powerful technology..."

The front of the card that has been turned into a chip still has the pattern and number of the Two of Spades, but they are very light in color.

The back is quite different.

The originally complex patterns on the back were folded and overlapped, leaving hollow areas in an interlaced manner.

If you look closely through the hollow gaps, you can vaguely see the identification metal and patterns hidden in it.

But if you don’t look closely, the back side looks like a maze game!

The circular mark originally printed under the number '2' has become hollow.

The empty space is the small ball fixed at the 'starting point'.

This design left Tanvid speechless for a moment.

"This way I can carry the cards with me..."

Tanvid estimated that the hole reserved was large enough to pass a rope or something like that.

Compared to carrying a card on your body, this design is more reasonable and convenient.

This made Tanvid even more curious about the full picture of this organization!

"I really want to see with my own eyes who designed something like this." He sighed and picked up the card beside him.

A time and address were written on the card.

The time is night and the address is Tokyo Port.

"Tokyo Port tonight...?"

There is a ship in Tokyo Harbor tonight, heading for a private island.

It is said that the island was bought by the richest woman in the United States who was assassinated last month for her stepson.

The life of this richest woman is somewhat legendary because of her identity as a "prophet".

It only took a few years to go from poverty to the richest man.

Although it was later rumored that the image of the richest woman collapsed, the fact that she was able to use the identity of a "prophet" to become the richest person within a few years was enough to demonstrate her ability.

She does not live by prophecies alone.

It’s just a pity that this legendary woman’s daily life wasn’t going well.

The stepson adopted after divorce is not considered a successful person.

It is said that the island is some kind of surprise prepared by the richest woman for her stepson, and he can get it as long as he completes a simple goal given by the richest woman.

Sadly, both men were murdered last month.

The island was therefore taken over by a mysterious man.

I heard that the original intention of the mysterious man to buy the island was to build an 'amusement paradise' without any worries.
