Conan Rick's Investigator

Qin Zhibo came to the office, faced the clock on the wall, and put the ring on his finger at the moment when the second hand just turned.

1, 2, 3...

When the second hand turned 20 times, Qin Zhibo saw that the number in the will column immediately dropped by 1 point.

[Will: 81]

Qin Zhibo quickly took off the magic ring and ended his invisibility.

Now Qin Zhibo understood that this magic ring could cause the wearer to lose 20 point of willpower every 1 seconds.

With an average person's 50 points of willpower, their sanity value will drop to zero within 17 minutes of wearing it, turning them into a permanent mental patient.

Even with his iron will, he could only hold out for 30 minutes or half an hour.

Of course, this is just a theoretical number.

In fact, when the will of ordinary people is reduced to a certain level, they will begin to become mentally disordered and behave abnormally. There is no need to wait until the moment when the will is completely reduced to zero.

When one's willpower drops to a certain threshold, branches will appear at the edges of one's eyes, blocking one's vision and making movement difficult.

This threshold is 30.

也就是说自己实际能佩戴的时间是（90-30）×20=1200秒，也就是20分钟。

The average person's endurance is even lower, and it would be difficult for them to even last ten minutes.

Now Qin Zhibo completely understood why the Lord of the Rings was not recommended for those who were not strong-willed.

This is simply an evil magic weapon driven by willpower!

The ability to be invisible is good, but if you indulge in it for a little longer, it will become useless.

As stated in the item introduction, become a slave of the Lord of the Rings.

And now there is another situation that Qin Zhibo is very concerned about.

As mentioned in the introduction, the Lord of the Rings possesses a great deal of magical power.

Qin Zhibo needs to experiment to see if the magic extractor can work on the magic ring.

Wearing the magic extractor on his hand, Qin Zhibo directly grabbed the magic ring in his hand.

However, a long time passed and there was no response to the magic value in the magic extractor.

So, Qin Zhibo tried to put the magic ring on the magic extractor.

The magic extractor looks like a white glove, and the ring looks like a golden ring.

The gold ring and the white gloves are a perfect match.

When the ring was put on his finger, Qin Zhibo immediately became invisible even though it was through a glove.

1, 2, 3...

When the second hand passed 20 seconds, Qin Zhibo's willpower dropped by 1 point again, while the magic power in the magic power extractor increased by 1 point.

Qin Zhibo: “?”

Qin Zhibo quickly took off the ring and summarized the rules.

When the ring is not worn, the magic extractor cannot extract the magic from it.

Mana can only be obtained when the Mana Extractor and the Magic Ring are worn at the same time.

The speed of willpower loss and mana acquisition is 20 seconds per point.

Is it really just about exchanging willpower for magic power?

Qin Zhibo checked his will again.

After these experiments, my willpower has dropped to 80 points.

Qin Zhibo, who suffers from phone battery panic disorder: It's a bit dangerous...

But fortunately, I have almost understood everything I wanted to know.

Qin Zhibo put away the magic ring and the magic extractor, turned on the TV, sat in the boss chair and prepared to relax.

As soon as the TV was turned on, an excited voice came from inside.

"All right!"

"Listen up, everyone!"

"Not only must we defend this bronze statue of the purple Tong Kong, but we must also take advantage of tonight's opportunity to arrest Kaito Kidd!"

"As for why we're sticking to tonight, it's because our showdown with Kaito Kidd will be broadcast live on TV!"

On the TV screen, Nakamori Ginzo was as imposing as ever, commanding his all-blue uniformed police officers.

……

At the same time, Conan and others, who had just demonstrated the murder method to the police and recorded their statements, happened to pass by a large shopping mall.

Watching the huge electronic screen outside the mall show "Kaito Kidd VS Police!

", Conan turned away with a strange smile on his face.

Chapter 253: Friends, of course I’ll give it to you…

Looking at what was being broadcast on TV, Qin Zhibo was a little surprised.

When I went to see the illusionist's performance with Kuroba Kaito and Koizumi Akako this afternoon, I didn't realize that Kuroba Kaito would be "open" again tonight.

And since the treasure stolen this time was not from the Suzuki family, Qin Zhibo did not receive an invitation to become a member of the foundation-laying group.

In other words, is Officer Nakamori fighting alone today?

"In this case, Kaito Kidd should be able to succeed easily..."

Qin Zhibo, lying in the boss chair, shook the chair and adjusted it to a more comfortable angle.

Although Officer Nakamori has eighteen years of experience in catching Kaito Kidd, this actually shows that his ability is not enough to catch Kidd.

but……

Qin Zhibo thought of Spider he met this afternoon. If he wanted to kill Kaito Kidd, he would probably choose this opportunity to do it.

Qin Zhibo now has two choices.

One is to let things unfold and wait to see tomorrow's headlines.

The other is to personally help Kaito Kidd secretly without putting himself in danger.

If there was no Lord of the Rings, Qin Zhibo would definitely choose the first one without hesitation.

After all, knowing that Spider belonged to a dangerous organization, there was no need for him to touch this bad luck and proactively ask to be put on the other party's assassination list.

But now that he has the magic ring that can make him invisible, Qin Zhibo decided to play his part.

On the one hand, Qin Zhibo didn't want his first experience with the Lord of the Rings to be to do something as shameless and unethical as "visiting a women's bathhouse."

On the other hand, Kuroba Kaito is already a third-level friend in his network of relationships.

Friends, of course, are used to make M...

No!

Of course it is used to save!

……

When Qin Zhibo arrived at the location in this preview - Jianggutian Museum, a large number of police had already been deployed.

More than a dozen searchlights illuminated the area around the museum as bright as day.

Eight helicopters were circling overhead, and outside the museum, wherever there was room for people to stand, police officers in uniform were standing.

The characteristic of Inspector Nakamori's capture of Kaito Kid is that it is all talk and no action. It seems unbreakable, but in fact it is weak inside.

Kaito Kidd is an intelligent thief, not a bandit. Having more people will not work, and sometimes it will even have the opposite effect.

It's a shame that Officer Nakamori never learns from his mistakes...

Just as Qin Zhibo was standing a hundred meters away from the museum and eating watermelon with the onlookers, a gentle male voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Sir, please move aside."

Qin Zhibo looked back and saw a man in a brown windbreaker standing behind him.

Some tea-brown hair tips appeared from under the British tweed-colored deerstalker hat, but unfortunately the brim of the hat blocked the man's face above his nose.

But as long as his face is not covered, Qin Zhibo can still see his message.

Qin Zhibo looked up at the man's head, where the following message appeared:

Name: White Horse Detective

Sex: Male

Age: 17

Main occupation: Detective

Secondary occupation: High school student

Social Credit: 9500

-

Qin Zhibo felt that this basic information configuration was somewhat familiar...

If he is both a detective and a high school student, then isn't he a high school detective?

At the same time, high school detective Hakuba Tani was also a little surprised.

The reason for her surprise was not that she recognized the man in front of her, but that the brown windbreaker he wore looked like her...

Wearing the same clothes!

"Cough cough..."

Bai Ma Tan coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment of wearing the same clothes as a passerby, and turned around and ordered: "Afu, bring me my shawl."

"Yes, Master."

The butler named Ah Fu quickly took a brown shawl from the carriage and handed it to Bai Ma Tan.

Actually, Bai Ma Tan didn’t want to do a full version of Sherlock Holmes cosplay today. On the one hand, it is the transition between spring and summer, and it would be a bit hot if he wore too thick clothes.

On the other hand, things like capes tend to get carried away when they're running, which is not conducive to today's plan to capture Spider.

Yes, Hakuba's main purpose of coming here today is not to capture Kaito Kidd, but to capture Spider.

Half a month ago in the UK, a Scotland Yard police officer suddenly died at home, and Detective White Horse was commissioned to investigate the truth behind the police officer's bizarre death.

Detective White Horse discovered from the investigative notes hidden in the home of the Scotland Yard officer that he was investigating the true identity of the world's top illusionist Günter von Goldberg II.

The investigative materials inside show that this famous illusionist often uses a pseudonym and is very likely the same person as the world's top killer Spider.

The investigation also mentioned that Spider's next assassination target is Kaito Kidd, and that Spider has noticed that he is investigating him.

——If anything bad happens to me, it must be Spider's fault.

Therefore, Hakuba Tan came to Japan from Europe to follow the performance of the illusionist Günter, and made plans to deal with Spider for a long time.

Because Bai Ma Tan had a vague premonition in his heart that this would be the most difficult enemy he had ever faced in his career.

As for Kaito Kidd, he was just killing rabbits while robbing straw - just a by-product.

……

Back to the present, Bai Ma Tan adjusted the shawl on his shoulders and re-examined his own clothing and the man in front of him.

This is finally different.

"Sir, may I come in?" Bai Ma Tan asked politely.

"Actually..." Qin Zhibo made way, "I would have let you through even if you didn't change your clothes."

Bai Ma Tan: “…”

Feeling a little embarrassed, Bai Ma reached out and lowered the brim of his hat, quickly passed through the blockade of the onlookers, and walked to the front of the museum.
