"No, I shouldn't not contact Homura. I have to give her some information to ensure contact in the next reincarnation, unless I have some additional information that prompts me to make such a choice."
"If I had known this would happen, I should have gone to that world, a world somewhat similar to Madoka Magica. Then maybe I could have recovered my memory and made a better decision than I have now."
"It's because I don't have the first pot of gold that I'm struggling."
At different times, due to differences in era, worldview, history and other factors, there are definitely differences between currencies.
He is a powerless person, with no money, no power, and no friends.
It is too difficult to survive, and the paper industry is completely unsure.
Just as Zhixing was still blaming his fault on not choosing the right world when conducting the ability experiment, the dark space began to gradually fade away.
Affected by the changes in the environment, Zhixing suddenly came to his senses from his regret and looked around.
But the gradually clearer scene told Zhixing that he did not go back, but was still staying in the alley waiting to go back and teleport to Conan.
"Oh no! If I had known I couldn't go back, I wouldn't have tried to rescue Miyano Akemi. Even though I didn't succeed, the intelligence department over there should have recorded my existence and arrested me when all my future deaths came true, right?"
The sudden inability to return put the paper industry under tremendous pressure.
Paper line has not yet made plans to live in Conan in the future.
Originally, I thought that if I could travel to other worlds, I would definitely be able to travel back.
With this idea in mind, Zhixing wanted to come to Conan to make a fortune from the information gap.
"No, in this situation, I have to stay in the police station and return home as soon as possible. After returning, at least I can find a job with food and accommodation to support myself."
"If I continue to stay here, then because of my identity as a person from the future, the families of the deceased will definitely take revenge on me."
Zhixing stood up from the alley despite being hungry, staggered to the street while holding onto the wall, and stretched out his hand to sense it.
"Hmm, no feedback. As expected, at midnight, there aren't many people walking on the street."
Not to mention the locals, even the paper merchants don’t dare to walk around at midnight. This is Conan’s world. What if they encounter a criminal dealing with a corpse while walking?
Although there are indeed some cases where several eyewitnesses provided clues in this way.
Zhixing came out of the alley and looked around, and saw the telephone booths that can be seen everywhere in this world, which are similar to the placement of shared bicycles in Zhixing's real life.
Zhixing searched his pockets and found nothing except the note from Hongzi, who could not directly know consciousness.
"I remember calling the police here doesn't cost any money, right?"
Zhixing wanted to recall the plot he knew, but his brain was not working well and he could not extract any information about the phone call in Conan.
I could only try my best and slowly walked to the telephone booth at the end of the street.
Zhixing entered the phone booth and just picked up the receiver. His finger was already turning the first 1 when suddenly his body shook violently and he looked in the direction he came from.
Sure enough, it's here. It seems that my intuition is indeed a gift.
Although the words that came out of his mind were silent and Zhixing could not identify who said them, he could still tell that there was only one person who could say such words.
"Could it be possible that Mao Lilan could intuitively know that I would appear here? In other words, shouldn't I be in a state of no cause and effect with respect to this world?"
Thinking this, Zhixing decided to push the door open to see if the figure in the distance was Xiaolan.
But the emergence of resistance interrupted the paper bank's actions.
Zhixing looked in the direction of the resistance in his hand and saw that the length of the receiver had been stretched to its limit, and it was obvious that Zhixing was not allowed to pull the receiver out of the door.
"Could it be that it's time to make a choice again?"
When calling the police is not the only option, the current situation that was originally ignored by the paper industry resurfaces.
The diplomatic service intends to identify itself as a threat of murder conviction;
The kendo coach was taken to the police station and convicted of murder, but it was clear that he had another motive. He had originally intended to conceal his motive for the murder.
And the police officer whose name I don't remember and whose injuries are still unknown and who was half-made into a doll by the witch.
"Do I have any choice? It's hard mode over there."
There was no unnecessary entanglement, nor did he consider whether he could overcome these difficulties when Inspector Megure already believed in his future identity.
Zhixing put the microphone back in its place, then pushed open the glass door and greeted the figure running towards him.
"Great! I finally found you, Kamijou-san."
Xiaolan seemed relieved and said hello to Zhihang:
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. Good evening."
"Good evening, I just got here. I was thinking of taking a police car to the police station to stay overnight before coming back to see you."
Zhixing pointed to the telephone booth behind him, explained why he came out of here, and then asked curiously:
"Have you been looking for me for a long time? You're not waiting for me here every day, are you?"
Xiaolan shook her head and explained:
"Conan told me that you might show up on the day a murder occurs, so I check every day to see if there will be a murder tomorrow."
"Huh?? This isn't scientific, is it?"
Zhixing looked at Xiaolan in surprise, with only one thought in his mind.
Why is my translation starting to become conceptual? Does the entire world version have to be updated as well? Can Xiaolan's Koi Possession really be used as an active skill?
Xiaolan scratched her head and felt a little embarrassed. After all, if Xiaolan hadn't done this kind of thing herself, she probably wouldn't... maybe... okay, she would believe it.
"Oh, by the way, there's a celebration tonight, and the school happens to be closed. I wonder if Kamijou-san can meet up with Sonoko during the day?"
Zhixing thought for a moment and nodded, then said:
"Of course, but I have a few things to clarify."
"illustrate?"
"Well, first of all, I'm already experiencing some backlash from changing my destiny, but I don't know exactly what kind of changes I've made. The people at the agency haven't told me anything."
"So I need the things I left at the police station. Could you please ask Yuanzi if I can get them? If so, I'll meet with her. If not, I may need to go to the police station to find a way to get my things back."
Zhihang came up with an excuse and didn't agree to it completely. Instead, he laid the groundwork and then stated the key requirement:
"Secondly, when I went to school to wait for you last time, I discovered that I had a serious problem. Perhaps it was due to the time-space paradox, but I can no longer be seen by too many people at the same time. This will cause my body to react abnormally, and even make me... disappear."
Zhi Xing frowned as he spoke of this situation, which was very consistent with his character, but still raised his third finger and said:
"Third, I'm very hungry now, I have no money, and no place to stay. Can you let me stay for another night?"
After Xiaolan heard the paper company's request, she looked at the paper company with some concern and asked:
"Are you okay? How do you feel now? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. If this will cause you trouble, then we'd better not meet."
Zhixing couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that Xiaolan, who had come here in the middle of the night just to allow him to meet Sonoko again, had actually given up being a middleman on her own initiative.
"This is all business. I didn't anticipate this situation that day, so the meeting was never completed. Now it's just a matter of rescheduling."
"But wouldn't it be that your contact with Sonoko would significantly alter your future, leading to this situation? In that case, this deal is still..."
"it does not matter."
Zhi Xing interrupted Xiaolan's words about canceling the meeting, and then his brain was working rapidly in a hungry state, and then he explained to Xiaolan who was looking at him in confusion:
"I said it at the beginning, you have the talent of a saint. Your favor is very valuable. Since I have this opportunity to gain your favor, I will of course choose to take certain risks."
"Then, won't Kamijou-san disappear because of this? Will he be able to come back like this?"
"Well, of course I can. If you ask why, it's because you're the one who asked me to meet you."
Zhi Xing looked at Xiao Lan seriously. Although he knew that his disappearance was due to the witch's barrier, he still forced himself to think of a logic:
"Mauri Ran, someone once described you as being as kind as an angel."
"Although I don't know what you will be like in the future, whether you will be able to learn magic and become a saint."
"However, since you didn't stop my actions in the future, it means that this meeting will not bring me serious consequences."
"If I go to meet someone as influential as Suzuki Sonoko without permission, causing a huge time paradox and making myself disappear."
"Now that you know about this, you will definitely stop me."
"You personally made this happen."
After Zhixing finished explaining his reasons, he looked at Xiaolan and asked:
"After becoming a saint, your lifespan will also be increased, so you will definitely live to the time when I traveled through time. Do you believe that your future self will be as kind as before? If this incident puts me in danger, will you risk the same risk to change history to save me?"
Xiaolan lowered her head, then looked at Zhixing with a firm gaze and replied:
"Yes, absolutely. I won't let you get into danger just for helping me! No, if I really become the saint you're talking about, then I definitely won't let you get into danger. I will definitely help you eliminate the dangers brought about by other situations."
Zhixing was a little stunned when he heard Xiaolan's unexpected answer. He originally wanted to change the question to whether she believed in him, so that the meeting with Sonoko would not change, but Xiaolan's answer was far more than that.
"Kamijo-san, you may not be participating in this experiment voluntarily, but I can assure you that if I can ensure your safety during this journey, and if my future self can influence the selection of the experimenter, I will definitely choose you."
"If I can't guarantee your safety here, I will definitely save you in the future before anything happens to you."
Xiaolan, who expressed her thoughts to the paper, raised her little finger and looked at the paper.
"I won't let you take the risk alone, I promise! So, trust me!"
Zhixing saw that Xiaolan's eyes were focused on him, but no other words came out of his mind, as if telling Zhixing that this was Xiaolan's true thoughts at the moment.
Zhixing felt a little reluctant to see Xiaolan treating her future personality as the real situation, so Xiaolan, who had made up her mind, felt a little guilty for deceiving the little girl.
He raised his hand slightly, wanting to hook the pinky promise, but felt that it was a bit deceptive, so he retracted his hand. Then, feeling that Xiaolan might notice, he raised it a little more, and then froze in mid-air. It took him a long time to sort out what Xiaolan had just said, and he sighed:
"A closed time loop? Sounds good."
Zhixing finally raised his hand and hooked his fingers with Xiaolan's, making a promise for the future.
Chapter 168: In-depth Discussion
"Bang~"
Zhixing got out of the taxi and once again looked down at the building of the Maori Detective Agency, which he had become familiar with.
Then, under Xiaolan's guidance, I simply boiled some water and made a bowl of instant noodles.
Then Zhixing told Xiaolan to go back to sleep, saying that staying up late was the enemy of beauty, and he returned to the room assigned to him with his cup of noodles.
Alas, is it really good for Xiaolan to change like this?
Zhixing put the cup noodles that still needed to be soaked aside and thought about the information he had exchanged with Xiaolan on the way here.
First, Conan. After the Billion Dollar Heist, he actually predicted that the day I would arrive would be the day the deceased would appear.
And that guy seemed to have learned about my death list from Inspector Megure. I don't know if he has seen it.
The last part is a very strange one.
Judging from Xiaolan's reaction, it doesn't make sense that Kudo Shinichi hasn't contacted Xiaolan during this period of time.
Zhi Xing opened the cup noodles, stirred the ingredients inside and concluded:
I couldn't change the outcome of the small stories in each unit drama, but from the known information, there have been significant changes on the sides of Xiaolan, Conan, and Inspector Megure.
From this perspective, even if I stop giving spoilers, the stories of those unit dramas will probably be different.
Zhixing took away the temperature of the instant noodles with his breath, and then started to eat his midnight snack.
But compared to those TV series that I used to help me make money, Xiaolan's situation has changed so much that it's a bit outrageous.
Is it because of Koizumi Anko's appearance? It feels like Ran is starting to take on a magical style.
Zhixing thought about the time when he passed by the detective agency just now and saw the card inside.
As for the cards with very delicate patterns, Zhixing could only think of one type, and that was Tarot cards.
Relying on luck for divination sounds so unreliable, but Xiaolan seems to have unexpectedly made the right bet.
The direct divination about my appearance was unsuccessful, and the divination about Shinichi's location was unsuccessful, but after listening to Conan's statement, the divination about the date of the next murder was successful.
And since Xiaolan didn't predict my situation, it means that the guess that I would come back from where I was probably also came from Conan, right?
It always feels incredible. I have appeared in front of Conan several times, and two of them were randomly next to Conan. Why can Xiaolan find me?
After I got off the car, I was already in the witch's barrier and didn't know where I was. I didn't even know how to get back to the high school, and then from the high school back to Maori.
Zhixing finished all the noodles and condiments in the cup noodles, and then, in order to avoid waste, he stared at the still steaming cup noodle soup and poured it into his mouth.
"Ha~ So you determined my location based on that traffic jam?"
