Zongman: The post-2D era

The last sentence should be a hint to solve the problem. We will know what it means when the problem happens.

Iwanaga Kotoko said to the others! "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore. By the way, the prophecy may not be able to be changed. But you will definitely be able to get out of danger."

Mitsuhiko took the paper and looked at it for a while before putting it away and said, "Stop for a moment, let's think about it after we finish eating the cake!"

The three little ones happily ate the delicious cake while Conan and Haibara Ai were still in deep thought.

When the three little ones said goodbye to the two and left the House of Wishes, Conan and Haihou Ai seriously asked Iwanaga Kotoko, "Will the prophecy you said definitely come true?"

Iwanaga Kotoko said: "That's right, so when you put on the blue hat, just act according to your heart!"

Huiyuan Ai was puzzled! "What does it mean to act according to your heart?"

Iwanaga Kotoko said! "This sentence is directed to Edogawa Conan. As the price for my interruption, I will tell you first! Haibara Ai."

"Edogawa Conan will put a long blue hat on you. And then pull you away from the fate of death."

Huiyuan Ai said with an unchanged expression: "Boring! Since prophecy can't change anything, why prophesy at all!"

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and said, "No, this is a prophecy that is meaningful to Edomon Conan. Even if the future is predicted, the future will not change. Even if the victim who will be killed in the future is known, the famous detective cannot change the fate."

"A detective is just someone who finds the truth. He can neither predict the future nor judge crimes nor change fate and tragedy."

Conan lowered his head so that the reflection from his glasses would hide the look in his eyes at the moment.

"You're right, a detective is just someone who finds the truth. He can't change the future or stop fate. But I still want to thank you."

"When I accepted the existence of supernatural beings such as magic in this world, an idea emerged in my mind unstoppably."

"Can I do better, do more? Prevent crimes that haven't been committed yet? Like save people who should have been killed..."

Iwanaga Kotoko said in a deep voice! "Yes! When a person knows that there is something beyond science in the world, everyone will have fantasies. Some people pursue extraordinary powers and go crazy to the point of destroying their families or committing crimes and murders."

"Everyone has their own job, position, and ability limit. Humans can keep making progress but cannot be obsessed with the pursuit of monsters, because this is abnormal and fatal in human society."

Conan lowered his head and drank his drink, muffled and said: "Thank you for your sincere advice, but I will still keep working hard to prevent the incident from happening and find the truth of the incident. Because I know that even if I can't rely on the power of monsters, I am still a detective with my wisdom."

"I can still find the only truth. Moreover, I don't believe in fatalism and predetermined fate. Everything will change, including fate."

Chapter 191: The Wish House in Beika Town, Kotoko Iwanaga Designs Conan

January 1th, Beika-cho shopping street.

The young scouts were discussing the prophecy of Iwanaga Kotoko, but Ke and Huihouai were a little gloomy.

"Hey! Haibara, this time the hostage incident at the football field was just as Iwanaga Kotoko predicted, the 7.62mm pistol, the blue hat and the football. Everything seemed like a drama that had been predestined."

Huiyuan said sadly: "Destiny, cause and effect, logic are all intertwined in this world. Perhaps this is the world we call real. But I still believe that humans can change their destiny. At least love can bring about miracles."

Conan said with dead fish eyes: "Haha! Huiyuan, you are not a real elementary school student!"

However, Huihara Yuan grabbed Conan's clothes and pointed to a place in the shopping street, where a restaurant called Wish House seemed to have always been there.

"Haibara, what's going on? This wishing house should be near Dr. Agasa's house. Why is it in Beika-cho shopping street?"

Huiyuan Ai shook her head and said, "I don't know, but we'll know if we go over and take a look."

Conan stopped him and said, "Forget it! If possible, I don't want the little devils from the Junior Detective League to have too much contact with the House of Wishes. Let's discuss the issue of fate with Iwanaga Kotoko when it's just the two of us!"

Huiyuan Ai glanced at the three little ones and said, "Let's do as you say! We'll meet at the hospital later. I also want to hear about fate."

Conan nodded and watched the three little ones pass by the Wishing House, feeling relieved. It is better to stay away from monsters and the like. "

In the House of Wishes, at the sixth table, the Exploration Table, Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Conan, who was wearing a blue hat, and smiled, "It seems that my prediction has come true."

Conan nodded and said, "This is a blackmail case that threatens the lives of more than 50,000 people in the football stadium. But in fact, it is a murder case in which a photographer attempted to kill people."

Huihara Ai ordered a drink and said, "Thank you for your tip about the incident outside of the incident."

Iwanaga Kotoko waved her hand and said, "Even without my prophecy, Conan can find out how Fanren escaped danger."

Conan said seriously: "When I put on the blue hat, I avoided activities related to football. But in the end we still went to the football field. When I wanted to ask Huibara to watch the game together and handed her the hat, we were silent for a while."

Ai Huihara added: "In the end, I took the hat as if nothing had happened. Then the 7.62 bullet hit a football."

Conan said seriously: "If you hadn't predicted it, I would have done the same thing. But because of your advice, we didn't try to do anything out of the ordinary. In the end, the incident was resolved."

Iwanaga Kotoko said happily! "Isn't this great? It not only solved the incident but also proved that fate is irreversible."

Conan denied it, "No, this feeling is terrible. Huiyuan and I thought of no less than ten excuses, and deliberately threw away the blue hat three times. In the end, a passerby still gave me a blue hat. It's like a curse that won't go away. And we have no way to deal with it!"

Iwanaga Kotoko nodded and said, "This is fate, destiny, plot, cause and effect of everything."

"But this kind of destiny is not unchangeable. It just requires special abilities or great power. My boyfriend Jiulang Senior has such power after eating the meat of mermaids and pieces. Do you want it?"

Ai Huihara said before Conan: "What did your Jiulang senior do with such power? Is he proud of such power?"

Conan drank Guo Ji and said: "Don't worry! Huiyuan. I will not pursue such power. I just want an answer. Fate is not absolute. This is very important to me as a detective."

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and praised Conan! "Very good, that's how a detective should be. Let me tell you another good news. You will not encounter monsters in the future. Because all the monsters in your world will stay away from you."

"You are probably an existence on the same level as the God of Death in your world. You are either encountering an event or on your way to an event."

Huiyuan Ai said with a smile: "Ah, this time with the blessing of the God of Wisdom, Conan, your excuse that the incident is calling the detective may not work."

Conan said while drinking his drink with a pair of dead fish eyes! "It's none of your business. The incident originally called for us famous detectives."

A high school girl walked in from outside the Wish House, saw Conan and took two quick steps and said, "Conan-kun, why did you come to this restaurant again after just returning home? I thought you had something to do! Really!"

After Mao Lilan finished speaking to Conan, she said to Iwanaga Kotoko: "Hello, my name is Mao Lilan, and I am the daughter of Mao Li Kogoro from the nearby Mao Li Detective Agency. I hope my Conan has not caused you any trouble!"

Iwanaga Kotoko glanced at Conan and said with a slight smile: "Nothing, Conan is a very interesting kid. By the way, is he your brother?"

Mao Lilan said: "No, Conan is a child who lives in my house. His parents work abroad. So..."

Kotoko Iwanaga asked Ran Mouri to sit down, and they quickly started chatting and became friends.

Conan and Haibara Ai also interjected from time to time. Conan kept staring at Iwanaga Kotoko. He had a feeling that this woman would definitely trick him. The corner of his mouth when he saw Xiaolan was the evidence.

Iwanaga Kotoko finally turned the topic to Conan. She looked at Conan and Huihara and said, "Conan and Ai often talk to me about reasoning. This little friend has a mind and thoughts that are more mature than his age."

Mao Lilan explained sheepishly: "They are all members of the Junior Detective League. So they may like reasoning more than other children."

Iwanaga Kotoko nodded and said, "But children are still children. Xiaolan, you should pay more attention to Conan-kun!"

"Of course! I've always taken care of Conan like my little brother."

Iwanaga Kotoko blinked at Conan, and Conan's expression changed as he listened to Iwanaga Kotoko: "Really? I don't have a brother, but I heard that sisters usually sleep and bathe with their younger brothers when they are young. Is that true?"

Conan interrupted in a childish voice! "Sister Lan, don't say it, it's too embarrassing."

Ran Mouri complained to Conan and asked him to play with Haibara Ai, then sat with Kotoko Iwanaga and talked in private.

Ai Haibara looked at Conan's red face and said, "Your childish behavior just now was embarrassing enough. Not to mention sleeping and bathing together. Just pray that Xiaolan will never know that you used to be Edogawa Conan! Kudo!"

Conan crawled on the table, his neck turning red. This level of social death and public execution was too traumatic!

"Iwanaga Kotoko, that guy. Don't let me catch you. I will definitely pay you back next time."

When Mao Li Mao took Conan back to Mao Li Detective Agency, Haibara Ai was also ready to say goodbye. Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and said, "Haibara, I told Xiaolan that Conan might have some feelings for you. That's why he comes to chat with us every day."

Haibara Ai just paused for a moment and said it was boring before leaving. On the way, she silently prayed for Conan.

I hope that Edogawa Conan will not be interrogated by Mao Li Ran, and will not speak out when in a hurry. In Mao Li Detective Agency, under Mao Li Ran's repeated questioning, Conan said: "Sister Ran, I actually like Sister Ran more than Haibara, so Haibara and I really have nothing to do with each other."

Chapter 192: The Hijacking of the Wish House in Beika Town

January 1th, Beika-cho Shopping Street.

Iwanaga Motoko looked at Conan's face, he looked like he had lost all hope in life, handed him a drink and said, "Aren't you free too? I thought you were going to complain to me about yesterday's prank."

Muranan shook his head and said, "It took a while for me to finish my work, but only one day has passed in this House of Wishes. How this store calculates time is really unscientific."

Feng Feng couldn't help but look at Conan complaining about the time in the Wishing House and said, "The time I set is accurate, but the time in your world is confusing! You are a perennial elementary school student."

Conan said with dead eyes, "How disrespectful! My world may have a lot of things, but time is governed by scientific laws."

Iwanaga Kotoko took out a document and said, "Famous Detective, I just received a request from a snow woman. Do you want to take a look at this case?"

Conan took the information and said, "Snow Woman, is it the monster Snow Woman I know? What case is it about?"

Iwanaga Kotoko just motioned Conan to look at the information and then said to Feng Feng: "Shopkeeper, I'm about to help the Snow Woman solve her commission. Although it's unlikely, if something happens, how about asking the shopkeeper to lend me a hand?"

Feng Feng nodded and took out a wooden sign with inscriptions and handed it to Iwanaga Kotoko, saying, "It's best not to use it. This wooden sign is a kind of contract. The more I help you, the higher the price I will charge you."

Iwanaga Kotoko put away the wooden sign and said, "This is enough. A ritual similar to the evil god's is best. If you messed up in my world, I would be trapped! Fortunately, the owner abides by the rules."

Conan listened to the conversation between the two and put down the information in his hand and said, "It's impossible to deduce these data. Is there no more information?"

Iwanaga Kotoko said in annoyance, "No, that's why I'm worried! So, does the famous detective have any advice?"

Conan picked up the information again and said, "It's hard to say now. It seems that I can only listen to your story in the future."

Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Conan and said, "You don't look like you've given up. Maybe you want to point out the truth in the middle of my sermon!"

Conan said with dead eyes! "I don't know who told Xiaolan that I like Haibara, and I've been asked so many questions by Xiaolan. In addition, you told me the truth about the ending when the Junior Detective Team was halfway through the story last time. So what's wrong with wanting to get revenge?"

Feng Feng turned around and looked at Huibara and Accelerator at the fourth table and said, "If I don't read minds, I don't know what girls are thinking. Especially a rational girl like Huibara Ai."

Conan turned his head and took a look, then grumbled, "Don't use your mind-reading ability to cheat! Besides, isn't a girl's mind like a needle in the ocean that can change position at any time?"

Iwanaga Kotoko said, "You two, I am also a girl after all!"

Feng Feng was about to chat casually when he stood up. A masked man with a gun rushed into the store and shouted! "No one move, or I will shoot."

The masked man was panting and was obviously being chased, and the police car that stopped suddenly outside the door also foreshadowed this.

Feng Feng took two steps forward and raised his hands, saying, "Don't get excited. We won't do anything. I'm the manager of this store. If you have any requests, just let me know."

The masked man sat down, pointed a gun at Feng Feng with one hand and said seriously, "Go out and tell the police that if they try to enter the store, I will shoot the customers in this store. Then bring me the best drinks and food. Don't play tricks, I will not show mercy."

Feng Feng followed his instructions and told the police outside, then served the masked man the best drinks and food.

Conan whispered to Iwanaga Kotoko, "It's strange. Why would a robber sit down to eat? Wouldn't this reveal part of his appearance? And he didn't even confirm whether we customers would be a threat to him. The strangest thing is why the store manager, who is a god, didn't take action to subdue him."

Iwanaga Kotoko said, "It's because of fate, and also because of the ghost of a little girl. This person entered through the rice flower star. That's why you can't see the little girl's spirit. The store manager probably just wants to solve the problem with mortal means without using supernatural powers."

"As to why he sat down to eat, you can infer for yourself."

Conan watched Kotoko Iwanaga waving to an empty place, and he knew that Kotoko Iwanaga was summoning the soul of the little girl again.

The reflection of Conan's glasses hid the expression in his eyes; after Iwanaga Kotoko ordered food for the little girl, she said to Conan! "Aren't you going to subdue this robber, Detective?"

Conan said solemnly, "Forget it! He won't hurt us. He just wants to have one last good meal."
