Conan Rick's Investigator

"I told you to go to bed early and get up early after school today because we have something to do at Moon Shadow Island tomorrow."

Chapter 90 Another week has passed...

In response to Xiaolan's scolding, Conan hung his head with a dejected look on his face.

It was Ayumi who proposed the haunted house exploration plan, and Genta threatened everyone to participate, but how come it became like Xiaolan taking everyone on the adventure herself?

But Conan didn't refute it at this moment.

On the one hand, Conan guessed that Xiaolan might not want the other children to be punished too much when they go home, so she took the blame on herself in front of other parents.

For example, Kojima Genta's mother came over and hit Genta on the head without saying a word.

Children in their growing years have relatively fragile brains. Yuantai's lack of intelligence might be a result of his parents' constant over-stimulation...

On the other hand, there is a blood suppression in Xiaolan's body, which makes Conan dare not refute.

I still remember when I was a child, every time Shinichi took Xiaolan out for an adventure, they would be scolded by an aunt wearing glasses when they returned home.

Now that Xiaolan has grown up, she has naturally inherited the bloodline power of this aunt...

The scolding was almost over when Mao Lilan saw Qin Zhibo walking out of the villa and hurriedly walked up to him and bowed to him.

"Thank you for saving this child's life again!"

"Thank you very much!"

There is a "again" in the name of Mao Li Ran, because in the last incident of the kidnapping of a young girl, it was Qin Zhibo who saved Conan.

After hearing Mao Lilan's accusation, the parents of other children also ran over and bowed to Qin Zhibo repeatedly to express their gratitude.

Qin Zhibo simply responded to the parents' thanks with a few words, but inwardly...

What are you thanking me for?

Everything is just for the system's mission...

Although this incident itself did not trigger the system's tasks, it did provide some inspiration of unknown origin and triggered subsequent tasks.

This allowed Qin Zhibo, who was gradually becoming familiar with this world, to summarize a law of cause and effect.

That is, once his activity trajectory overlaps with Conan, something will inevitably happen.

Where there are events, there may be tasks.

So as long as Conan is saved, then whenever he meets Conan in the future, he will be in trouble.

The discovery of this law of causality made Qin Zhibo somewhat glad that he did not give up on saving Conan in order to test the corpse investigation.

If Conan had been investigated on the corpse, at most he would have obtained a random skill from Conan's many skills.

But saving Conan unexpectedly means more events, more tasks, and more rewards...

This is equivalent to giving up a crooked tree and owning an entire forest.

……

After leaving the villa and saying goodbye to Ran Mouri and Conan at the street corner, Qin Zhibo returned to the office.

The office clock is about to strike midnight.

This reminded Qin Zhibo that he went out at about 8 o'clock in the evening.

It feels like you just took a stroll to the next block and 4 hours went by?

The time in this world is still so unscientific...

And when the hour hand, minute hand, and second hand on the clock coincided at the 12 scale, the system mall was refreshed again after countless days and nights.

It was still the five popular props + one skill, and Qin Zhibo began to check them one by one.

Night Vision Goggles

[Already have, but if you happen to have deep pockets…]

[Repeated night vision goggles will provide stronger night vision capabilities]

【Bar?】

[Price: 1000 General Proficiency]

Like the nuclear lighter from last time, this is a duplicate item.

But it seems that this can be stacked to make the night vision effect stronger?

If this is true, Qin Zhibo would be happy to make a second purchase.

Because the night vision goggles I won in the last lottery were not very effective. The images produced by the night vision were rather blurry, and I feel there is still a lot of room for improvement.

However, the "right?" in this introduction made Qin Zhibo puzzled.

So he decided to continue looking down to see if there were any other props worth buying.

Willpower Enhancement Drugs

【Consumables】

【Strengthen a certain amount of willpower】

[No one has successfully tested its efficacy—]

【Because everyone who drank it is dead...】

【But what if it works? 】

[Price: 500 General Proficiency]

Although the description was a bit strange, Qin Zhibo was sure that it was not poison.

Perhaps what this description is more trying to express is that if the situation is critical enough to require taking this medicine, then it is very likely that it will not play a crucial role?

【Physics Holy Sword】

[An object very similar to a crowbar]

[Well, it's nothing special compared to a regular crowbar]

【Black, long, and hard】

[Eh? I can't even cut it! —King Arthur who mistook the Holy Sword]

[Price: 1000 General Proficiency]

This is a crowbar.

Judging from the introduction, this prop is just an ordinary crowbar, which should be no different from the common ones on the market.

However, the system's items have a feature, which is that they can be stored in the prop bar.

If you have this thing, it will greatly improve your convenience when you need to bring a crowbar in the future.

【Magic Extractor】

[From the hands of a magician who has lost his magic power forever]

【Now empty】

[Can extract magic power in any environment with magic power]

"May the magic be with you!"

[Price: 3000 General Proficiency]

magic……

A brand new concept emerged, but Qin Zhibo was not surprised.

In this perhaps less materialistic world, what's so strange about a little magic?

But what if Qin Zhibo doesn’t know what to do if he has magic power?

I don't know magic...

The Lord of the Rings

[The Supreme Ring forged by the ancient demon king to sense extraordinary existence]

[Possessing powerful magic and extremely difficult to destroy]

[When worn, the wearer will have the ability to become invisible]

【Not recommended for those who are not determined】

[Otherwise, you will be hunted down by the nightmare and have your mind bewitched]

[It's Gulu! —A certain irrational slave]

[Price: 20000 General Proficiency]

The Lord of the Rings...

Qin Zhibo had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu when he heard the name of this prop.

Possessing powerful magic...

This made Qin Zhibo think of a possibility, that is, if he placed it next to the magic extractor...

Will the magic inside be sucked away?

Or can it provide infinite magic power?

Judging from the introduction, it directly provides the invisibility capability that everyone in the world dreams of.

It just has side effects, and is one of those items that requires a price to pay for gaining powerful abilities.

To avoid this side effect, you must have a strong will.

So the question is, is the "iron will" strong enough?

Qin Zhibo didn't know whether his willpower was enough to control this magic ring, but at least his current general skill proficiency was not enough to control it.

The general proficiency of 4920 is still far from 20000.

The last one is character skills.

[Character Skills: Arts and Crafts (Cooking): 1000 General Proficiency]

Our slogan is: Learn to be a chef and never be unemployed!

Chapter 91 Mission Location, Moon Shadow Island!

As expected, it is the last of the three employment skills.

If you are a foodie, this skill is definitely not to be refused.

Because you can improve your proficiency just by cooking every day without the need for deliberate training, it is so convenient.

But Qin Zhibo is not a foodie, and there is not even a kitchen in the office.

On the other hand, Qin Zhibo has his own chef.

If you want to eat delicious food, you can prepare your own ingredients and ask Matsumoto Ryohei to cook a good meal for you.

Finally, Qin Zhibo always felt that as long as he lived in Mihua long enough, this common skill would result in corpses being delivered to his door.

So considering the current situation, Qin Zhibo spent 2000 general proficiency points to buy night vision goggles and the holy sword of physics - the crowbar.

[Night Vision Goggles x2], [Physics Holy Sword]...

With these two things, Qin Zhibo couldn't wait to take them out and try them out.

First up is night vision goggles.

Turn off the lights in the office and turn on the night vision goggles.

A faint green vision appeared, and the image quality was obviously improved compared to the last time it was used in the Shijing family villa.

Noise is reduced and lines are much clearer.

It seems that repeatedly purchasing night vision goggles can indeed improve the night vision effect.
