Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

At this point, it was impossible for him not to see the feelings of this idol.

However, he seemed unsure how to respond to this sentiment.

To say that Yin Kong completely dislikes the other person would be self-deception.

After all, Yoko Okino is not only very beautiful, but more importantly, she can keep her true self even in the chaotic world of fame and fortune.

Before the time travel, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Yin Kong and the other person were from two different worlds.

However, when it came to reciprocating this sentiment, he felt as if something was missing.

Perhaps it's a feeling called being moved.

Yin Kong did not feel the same love at first sight or heart-fluttering feeling he once had for Ke Qing, Gan Yu, Shen He, Hu Tao, Ye Lan, Xian Yun, You La Ying, Shen Zi, Ling Hua, Xin Hai, Na Xi, Dani, Lu Chlorine, De Fu Fu, Grandma Si Ke Ke, Yuan Sha Sha, Xing Mi, Ya Yi Fu that he once felt for Miss Yang Zi.

If it were these characters he wholeheartedly loved, Yin Kong would definitely agree without hesitation and wouldn't have a moment to think about these messy things.

Just then, Yin Kong's phone rang, breaking the silence.

To his slight surprise, the number displayed was that of Eri Kisaki, whom he had just met during the day.

Chapter 35 Zhongli's Teachings

"Attorney Fei?"

Yin Kong was quite surprised; he never expected that this renowned lawyer would suddenly call him so late at night.

"It's me. I'm sorry for calling without my permission."

After a few brief pleasantries, the senior lawyer quickly explained his purpose:

"Actually, it's like this. I've also collected some legends about Chinese monsters, including the one you mentioned, the Painted Skin..."

Hearing the faint sound of paper documents being turned over on the other end of the phone, Yin Kong's expression became even more surprised.

Isn't this lawyer's ability to act a little too much?

It's important to understand that the internet in that era was far less developed than it is in later generations.

If nothing unexpected happens, even Baidu and Google don't have it yet, so finding legends and stories from another country won't be an easy task.

Of course, Yin Kong was also somewhat glad that he hadn't made something up on the spot, otherwise wouldn't he be in a very awkward situation now?

"So, Attorney Fei, is there something you can't understand?"

Eri asked:

"Is there any way to deal with this 'painted skin'?"

Eri Kisaki was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone before speaking again:

"What I mean is, among all this information, there doesn't seem to be any record of how to deal with this kind of monster..."

Good grief, so you are one too—

Hearing Eri's tone change from its usual crisp and decisive manner to hesitant and stammering, Yoon Kong finally realized what was going on.

So the little story he casually told during the day could actually be so impactful?

Not only were detectives Sato and Takagi startled, but even the lawyer was taken aback?

In his mind, Eri Kisaki shouldn't be such a timid person... right?

Yin Kong became somewhat uncertain.

After all, he suddenly remembered that although Xiaolan had the strength to tear apart ghosts and monsters, she would immediately become so frightened that her hands and feet would go weak and she would completely lose her fighting ability once she encountered an enemy who looked like a demon or monster.

So, Ran's problem actually stems from her mother, Eri Kisaki.

Of course, as the saying goes, "See through it but don't say it out loud."

Although the answer was already vaguely emerging, Yin Kong naturally did not reveal it at all on the surface.

After a moment's thought, he simply copied his previous explanation to Sato and Takagi:

"I have a few imperial coins, which are said to have been blessed by the gods and should have the power to ward off evil. When does Attorney Fei have time, she can come to the Cunning Rabbit House to pick them up."

Eri Kisaki immediately recalled that among the materials she had found, there were indeed records of ancient copper coins being able to ward off evil spirits.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely:

"Thank you so much for your help."

Just when Yin Kong thought the matter was over, he heard Eri Kisaki ask:

"I wonder if the Rabbit House is convenient now?"

"Ah, now?"

Seemingly sensing the surprise in Yin Kong's tone, Eri realized she had indeed been a bit too eager, and immediately coughed to explain:

"Ahem, don't misunderstand, it's Kuriyama. After hearing about these things, she was so scared that she couldn't sleep well. I did this to put her mind at ease."

Yin Kongxin understood, but did not expose it:

"Of course, Attorney Fei can just call me when you arrive."

After hanging up the phone, Yin Kong shook his head with amusement.

It's really unexpected that the top lawyer has this side to him.

Seeing him put down his phone, Paimon immediately flew over, saying smugly:

"Just now, Paimon came up with a super awesome new idea."

Yin Kong raised an eyebrow, deliberately adopting an ambiguous stance:

"Really? Is it some kind of bad idea again?"

As the son of Tivat, Paimon's ideas have a typical duality of gods and demons.

Although most of the time, the idea was to launch people to the Jade Pavilion using the Returning Machine, pretending to fall into the water to search for the legendary fairy, which was a ridiculous and laughable idea.

But occasionally, in moments of despair when travelers are at their wits' end, they will find the only right path to the future.

"What a terrible idea? I'm Paimon, the super, super smart guy. I only come up with good ideas, never bad ones."

Paimon protested at first, but then lost interest in keeping them in suspense and immediately said:

"It's simple. Since Ms. Yoko can't live with us, why don't we just have her live next door?"

Paimon's little scheme was quite shrewd:

"That way, I can ask her to play anytime."

Yoko Okino was taken aback, realizing that it was indeed a good idea.

However, despite feeling relieved, a sense of loss also arose in her heart.

After finalizing her future plans, Yoko Okino gradually became sleepy.

The troubles she encountered that day far exceeded what she had experienced in a typical week.

Now that the tension in my heart has finally eased, I am naturally exhausted, both physically and mentally.

Seeing this, Paimon immediately said:

"If you're tired, Miss Yoko, you should get some rest. We can discuss other things later, since we'll be neighbors soon."

After Paimon took the idol to wash up, Yin Kong also went to the quiet room as usual.

Of course, with Zhongli, the Rock King Emperor, the "reluctant" teacher Paimeng can naturally be laid off.

Zhongli was also slightly surprised by Yin Kong's request for advice.

After all, in his mind, the Traveler had always had his own unique way of fighting.

"However, since you've asked, I naturally won't be stingy and will share everything I know, but—"

Hearing the hesitation in Zhongli's tone, Yin Kong quickly pressed for an answer:

"Just what?"

"I'm just a little unsure, traveler, are you really capable of learning it?"

Zhongli paused, seemingly worried that Yin Kong might misunderstand, and then immediately added:

"Of course, I'm not saying you lack talent, but I can sense that your current state is somewhat unusual."

With Zhongli's keen perception, he had naturally already realized that the situation of his current avatar was very special.

There is neither hunger nor fatigue. Although there is a limitation in physical strength, it can be fully restored after just a few seconds of rest.

Even if you get injured by accident, as long as your health points don't drop to zero, you can continue fighting without any problems.

Even if they fall down, a few bites of food will instantly restore their fighting ability.

"It's practically the perfect fighting machine, but unfortunately, its excessive stability also has its downsides."

Zhongli used himself as an example:

"In theory, there is no distinction between high and low among the Eyes of God. From the moment of their birth, they are equivalent to granting power to their holders."

The difference in strength between individuals stems from their varying understanding and application of elemental power.

However, it is clear that with this Rock King's control over the rock elemental power, even if it is just an avatar or even just a wisp of will, he can easily unleash the power of the Eye of God to its limit.

"But the reality is that not only the power of the Eye of God, but also my martial arts, spirit, and even my control over the elements have been severely restricted."

It seems that I will only be able to recover them after the traveler helps me upgrade all those talent skills one by one.

Otherwise, no matter how weak this body is, Zhongli could easily carry away the level 59 [Hundred Transformations Witch] with a single Heavenly Movement.

Yin Kong suddenly realized and breathed a sigh of relief:

"So, Mr. Zhongli is worried that if I don't unlock my talent, I won't be able to learn and master new abilities?"

Zhongli nodded slightly, understandingly saying:

"I had this question because the traveler's physical condition seemed quite similar to mine. But now it seems I was just worrying unnecessarily."

Chapter 36 The Limits of the System

Yin Kong briefly described how he successfully improved his normal attack talent level through practice.

After listening, Zhongli nodded thoughtfully:

"So it seems you can enjoy the effects of these props without being restricted or bound by them—"

"I see. The traveler didn't seek immediate pleasure but chose rigorous training. You truly are exceptional, with lofty aspirations and ambitions."

Yin Kong clearly felt unworthy of Zhongli's high praise.

Because his initial motivation for training was not as lofty as the other party praised; he simply wanted to save some Mora and materials.

Seeing this, Zhongli smiled slightly, his tone calm:

"Once people get used to shortcuts, it becomes a luxury to return to the right path of hard work."

System-based character development is certainly quick; as long as there are enough resources, you can cultivate any "character" to a level that even they would have to take notice of with a flick of their finger.

But is this speed truly without any cost?

Just like the void terminal of Mount Sumeru, once a person develops the habit of only passively accepting knowledge, their curiosity will decrease infinitely, and they will almost completely lose their creativity.

Similarly, the same applies to the system.

Zhong Li could almost assert that even though Yin Kong was not the same as these "characters," as long as he chose a simple and crude way to level up, such as using experience books, his ability to grow on his own would decrease rapidly.

Until they were no longer able to break free from the system's constraints.

"The system's power has its limits. Level 90 is the limit for us [characters]. Perhaps a way to break through this limit will be found in the future, but it will only raise the limit higher, not completely remove it."

I think, traveler, what you're seeking must be more than this, right?

Yin Kong finally understood and nodded:

"As expected of Mr. Zhongli, his insight is truly remarkable."

Judging from the performance of [Kuryu Onikiri Maru], level 90 should be very powerful.

After all, the Oni Warriors, who were not even level 80, almost wiped out all the demons and monsters in Tokyo just from the aftershocks of the battle.

How powerful would a level 90 character be?
