Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

After taking a look at the clock next to them, the Tieliu team members quickly turned around to prepare the ingredients and get ready to receive the guests for dinner.

As for Yan Shuangying's condition, he believed that since Yan Shuangying himself felt there was no problem, then there must be no problem. Although they were allies with Yan Shuangying, they did not know Yan Shuangying well, so it was better not to ask too much about such matters.

Tick, tick, tick.

Follow the stairs to the first floor lobby.

Yan Shuangying nodded slightly to the leader of the Tieliu team, then blended into the crowd and disappeared.

This amazed the leader of the Tieliu team, who had been following Yan Shuangying's whereabouts.

Yan Shuangying's appearance and clothing were so conspicuous, and he had been paying attention to Yan Shuangying's location, but Yan Shuangying still blended into the crowd under his nose, and was indistinguishable from them, making it difficult to find them.

"Yan Shuangying is such a scary person."

The leader of the Tieliu team sighed, and then he was secretly happy.

"Fortunately, such a terrible person is on our side."

Tick, tick, tick.

The crowd moved in this street with ancient Chinese style, completely unaware that the urban legend of Beika Town was right next to them. Even if someone noticed the existence of Yan Shuangying, they would lose sight of Yan Shuangying in the next moment and finally think it was their own illusion.

And the urban legend of a half-human, half-ghost master of a gun, opened the door of a house at this moment.

A sign for the Chinese Store was hung above the house. (Note)

As soon as Yan Shuangying entered the door, he could see mountains of boxes placed randomly. There was even a weapon rack in the aisle, filled with various long weapons, just a little distance ahead.

You can see a martial arts training ground where an old man in a classic mandarin jacket is practicing with the Qinglong sword.

As if he had heard the location over here, the old man turned the Qinglong Sword in his hand and threw it directly in the direction where the sound came from. It came like a flash of lightning.

However, the Qinglong Sword was forcibly grabbed by the hilt and stopped in mid-air.

"You should change your temper. If it was a child who strayed in, this knife would have killed an innocent person."

Yan Shuangying casually put the Qinglong Sword in his hand back into the weapon rack, and then walked towards the old man. He first gave him a warning, and then went straight to the point and asked.

"How's the flying knife I asked you to make?"

The shop owner smiled, turned around, and walked in another direction in a mysterious manner.

However, just as he turned around, he saw Yan Shuangying, who had been standing in another position before, had quietly appeared behind him at some point. His speed was like a ghost, and the shop owner's face turned pale in an instant.

Fortunately, he has been practicing martial arts for many years, so he would not faint from such a small shock.

"Of course it's made. It's just a small item. Once the mold is made, we can make as many as you want."

The old man finally stopped keeping the secret and actually answered Yan Shuangying's question.

"The box containing the throwing knives is over there. The code on it says... that's it."

Nodding slightly, Yan Shuangying didn't waste any words and turned directly to the location of the box the old man mentioned.

However, just as he opened the lid of the box and checked the condition of the flying knife, the old man behind him suddenly asked.

"Young man, to be honest, among all the martial arts masters I have ever met, I have never seen anyone with more superb martial arts than you."

"No one among those guys can even come close to you in terms of skills or physical fitness. Of course, it could also be because I haven't been back home for so long that I don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."

"I just want to ask you, which do you think is more powerful, martial arts or guns?"

Yan Shuangying did not answer.

After checking the quality of the throwing knives, he immediately turned around and left with the box containing the throwing knives, but just as he passed by the old man.

The old man pulled out another big knife from the weapon rack and was about to chop at Yan Shuangying, but stopped in mid-air.

————At some point, a gun was pointed at his forehead.

The extreme sense of danger told him that if he really dared to take action, the man in black would really shoot and kill him.

"You are stupid."

Yan Shuangying's voice was calm.

"But if you really wanted an answer, well, you've got it now."

"You can try it. At this distance, which is faster, your knife or the bullet in the gun?"

How can you be called a master if you have a gun but don't use martial arts? Bu Ying, Cheng Tang, Du Ma... who among them is not a top martial arts master?

Apart from close combat with masters and sneaking in, in which situation do you use martial arts instead of guns to kill people?

Tick, tick, tick.

Watching the figure gradually walking away and disappearing outside the store, the shop owner finally came to his senses. He hung the sword back on the weapon rack with a sense of loss and sighed.

"As expected of him, he's the [Half-human, Half-ghost, Number One Gunner], he deserves the title."

"From three steps away, the gun is fast. Within three steps, the gun is both accurate and fast. Does this mean that in this era, only martial arts masters can be equipped with guns?"

drip.

Yan Shuangying's cell phone rang with an incoming message.

Despite the noisy crowd in Chinatown, Yan Shuangying could still hear everything clearly with his extraordinary hearing. He held the box with one hand and took out his cell phone from the pocket of his black coat with the other.

"...Is this so?"

Chapter 278 What is an Illusionist? (5/5)

"Illusionist?"

There was a rare hint of surprise in Yan Shuangying's voice.

Perhaps he'd become a killer too young; he'd never heard of a killer called an illusionist. So how did they kill? Could it be hypnosis or magic tricks? Then why not call him the Hell Magician instead of Gao Yuanyaoyi?

On the other end of the phone, Nanatsuki Koshimizu sounded somewhat helpless.

"Yes, Illusionist. This is what the famous detective told me to tell you during the Tokyo National Stadium bombing incident."

————Although she didn’t explicitly say which famous detective it was.

However, besides Nanatsuki Koshimizu, the only people in the National Stadium at that time were Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tan.

Now that Hattori Heiji has returned to Osaka City in the Kansai region, it is naturally impossible for him to know what happened or the people in Tokyo City. Therefore, the famous detective that Nanatsuki Koshimizu mentioned can only be Hakuba Tan.

However, he doesn't know much about the plot of "Magic Kaito".

If this anime series had not been broadcast inside the TV series of Detective Conan, he probably wouldn't even know who Koizumi Akako was, and that this so-called illusionist was related to Hakuba Tan.

So, it's likely that he's a villain from "Magic Kaito" who only lives for two episodes, right?

"Hakuba Tan said that the illusionist's goal was to kill Kaito Kidd, and according to information from the Suzuki Group, during the large-scale operation a week ago, the one where the four forces surrounded you."

"After Kaito Kidd helped you escape the terrorist organization's pursuit, he was ambushed by an illusionist on his way out of the blockade. If it weren't for the timely intervention of the karate champion named Kyogoku Makoto, I'm afraid Kaito Kidd might have died at the hands of the illusionist."

The expired high school detective spoke loudly into the speakerphone as he tapped away on his keyboard.

"He said that the illusionist might attack Kaito Kidd during his operation in the theater tonight, and asked me to ask if you would help him catch the illusionist—"

"Why are you arresting them?"

Yan Shuangying's voice was a little cold. Just by hearing his voice, Yue Shui Qitsuki knew that Yan Shuangying had already developed murderous intentions.

————The urban legend of Beika Town has always been that kindness must be repaid and revenge must be exacted. Since Kaito Kidd had been ambushed and killed by the illusionist once in order to help him, now Kaito Kidd's own actions may lead to his being ambushed and killed by the illusionist.

Well, now that Yan Shuangying knows about it, he will definitely not ignore it, and will directly kill the illusionist to prevent future troubles!

"Tell Bai Ma Tan that I will take action."

Telephone communication came to an abrupt halt at this point.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu curled her lips, tapped the keyboard, and sent an email to Hakuba Tan using a virtual address to inform him of the situation.

Well, this time they went straight through the firewall of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, giving Bai Ma Tan a little shock of hacking technology. This was a hacking program that Noah taught her after Yan Shuangying agreed to revenge.

However, she couldn't understand why Bai Ma Tan would come to Yan Shuangying for help first.

Because Bai Ma Tan is the son of the Bai Ma Police Chief, he always does things according to legal procedures. Now that he has informed Yan Shuangying, he cannot be unaware that with Yan Shuangying's personality, he will directly kill the illusionist.

Why did Bai Ma Tan resort to such a strategy? Did he think the danger posed by the illusionist was already that great?

"...We probably won't be bringing anyone else with us on this mission. It's better not to tell Asai and the others, or else something bad will happen."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu tapped on the keyboard, talking to herself.

Asai Narimi, who was in the safe house earlier in the morning, was no longer in the safe house. It was not that Yan Shuangying sent him back to Xinye County to take care of his family, but that he went to find another group of people.

To be precise, he went to find Yan Shuangying's new teammates, the [Nada Unichi Tokit] team.

At this moment, the team leader, Elechika, raised her brows and moved her hands non-stop, quickly dismantling the timing device in her hand. However, she was still much slower than Asai Narumi next to her.

But in the following shooting competition, she made up for her shortcomings in bomb disposal with her lack of shooting ability.

"Come again!"

Asai Narimi said this through gritted teeth, unwilling to admit defeat.

Obviously, as a man, he has the upper hand in both strength and speed, but it seems that except for throwing that requires strength, bomb disposal and mixing of explosives that require precision, and the ability to locate by sound, he is not as good as this girl.

They were both avengers with hatred in their past, so why is he worse than Elechika?

If Erechika knew what Asai Narimi was thinking, she would definitely tell him the answer without hesitation.

————Because your country bans guns, but my country does not.

It is normal for someone who can handle guns frequently and has practiced for several years to be better than someone who has been in contact with guns for less than three months.

"Then let's compare..."

Elechika raised her rifle, pulled the bolt back with practiced ease, and aimed at the target once more.

Looking at Elechika and Asai Narimi who were competing with each other and taking this opportunity to complement each other, the barrister Sakaguchi Masayoshi who was sitting upstairs couldn't help but shake his head slightly, feeling that the gap in talent between different people was so great that it made him despair.

He also wants revenge, but he has no talent for physical training.

Otherwise, Masayoshi Sakaguchi would not have trained his beloved dog John to become a golden retriever capable of biting and killing grown men, and he would not just sit here and watch the healthy competition among other Avengers.

“I feel like my sisters are so amazing…”

Mayuna stood beside Sakaguchi Masayoshi, watching the two's competition with some longing, her hands constantly holding onto the handle of the wheelchair.

Although there is a guardrail here, she is still very worried that Masayoshi Sakaguchi might accidentally flip the wheelchair to the next floor, as this floor height is very dangerous.
