Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

She looked up at the tall buildings on both sides of the road and kept exclaiming in amazement.

During their journey through Teyvat, the closest city to modernity was probably Fontaine.

But even Fontaine is clearly quite different from a real modern city.

The variety of goods sold on the street, especially the various toys, dazzled Paimon.

"Let's go! Jewelry Center!"

Their purpose in coming here was naturally to find materials for Zhongli's breakthrough.

Yin Kong originally thought that even if he successfully unlocked the Adventurers' Guild's features, obtaining the Geo-elemental [Solid Topaz Fragment] through the random rewards of daily quests would be several days, or even more than ten days, away.

Who knew that Qingshan Qihai had such good luck, and he succeeded in his breakthrough in one go? So he naturally couldn't waste any time and needed to find the remaining breakthrough materials for Zhongli as soon as possible.

If you can raise Zhongli's level to 40, and then have Conan craft a set of artifacts with HP/HP/HP attributes, even if they are only three-star quality, it will be enough to boost his HP to around 20,000.

When we encounter those level 50 or 60 monsters again, the balance of power will be completely different.

It's worth mentioning that the peace left by the [Yata-Uru] battle didn't last long after all.

Less than two days later, Yin Kong had already begun to see wandering demons and monsters on the streets again.

Although the number is still very small, it is likely that it will not be long before the original chaotic "spectacle" is restored.

For Paimon, this is a good opportunity to adapt gradually.

"The Traveler, that's it."

Neither Yin Kong nor Paimon had much interest in jewelry, so the two were very efficient.

About half a day later, they successfully found a substitute for amber in a Chinese jewelry store called "Dragon and Phoenix".

"Tianhuang stone?"

Yin Kong vaguely remembered this name; it should be a kind of rare stone from China, often used to make seals, and it was quite expensive.

Zhongli needed only top-quality Tianhuang stones, which made the prices even more outrageous.

"Wow, the deposit alone cost more than two million yen. Adding that to what has already been spent, Zhongli's breakthrough materials will cost more than seventeen million yen. At this rate, I feel that Ms. Yoko's savings will soon be insufficient."

Even as he left the jewelry center, Paimon was still marveling at the experience.

Tianhuang stone is already scarce, let alone when it is produced in a foreign country.

Even though "Dragon and Phoenix" is one of the largest jewelry and jade dealers in Tokyo, the stock in the store is far from enough to meet Zhongli's breakthrough needs.

They could only pay a deposit first, and it would take at least a week for them to ship the goods from China.

Chapter 59 Young Detective Team

Should I start drawing cards again?

Looking at Ningguang, one of the three four-star characters in the gacha pool who were just there to make up the numbers, Yin Kong couldn't help but feel tempted again.

If he remembered correctly, to max out Zhongli's level, he would need a full 168 [Stone Amber] stones, the same number he had experienced during the Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival in his dreams.

If we calculate based on the price of three pieces of Tianhuang stone, Yin Kong would need to prepare about 1 billion yen just to acquire the stone!

Clearly, Ms. Yoko alone could not possibly support his extravagant spending.

If Ningguang can be drawn, even if Lady Tianquan is all alone and unable to bring her Qunyu Pavilion and Tongtian Wealth, with her abilities, it's only a matter of time before she makes a comeback.

Unfortunately, the remaining balance of less than one hundred raw stones made him sigh to the heavens.

Yin Kong knew perfectly well that he would be lucky to manage to collect two more draws before the day ended.

"Yin Kong, look! There's an exhibition here! [World Treasures Exhibition], is it about the treasures of this world?"

Paimon clearly didn't have these strange worries; in her little mind, traveling with Yin Kong was the happiest thing.

Just as Paimon was filled with curiosity, he suddenly heard a loud, energetic voice shouting from the courtyard of the exhibition hall:

"Yay! Let's go treasure hunting! From today onwards, we are the [Junior Detective Club]!"

Boy Detective Team?

Yin Kong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked in the direction of the shout. Sure enough, he found a chubby little boy with a round head holding up a piece of paper and talking to his elementary school classmates with a smug look on his face.

Soon, Yin Kong spotted Conan among the group of energetic elementary school students. Conan had a deadpan expression and a completely listless look on his face, along with the exclamation mark above his head that represented the World Mission.

Now, Yin Kong has learned something very important: when a person is killed, they die.

Oh no, it's that the mission could fail.

In the game, even if players are wiped out by the BOSS or get stuck due to their own lack of skill or insufficient character level, they can keep restarting.

Just like in the Inazuma main storyline, Thomas promised to kneel before people to help them. As long as players don't trigger the next part of the story, he will keep kneeling in front of the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed Statue until the end of time.

But in the real world, such a convenient thing obviously doesn't exist, nor is it possible.

For example, the poor agent, Mr. Yamagishi, after his unfortunate death, naturally lost the World Mission attached to him.

As for the specific details, no one knows them anymore.

Just as Yin Kong was trying to recall the plot in his mind, Paimon's attention was completely drawn to the word "treasure":

"Treasure? Treasure! Yin Kong, did you hear that? There's treasure!"

"I, Genta Kojima, will be the leader. Do you have any objections?"

Just then, as Kojima Genta was enthusiastically announcing his status as the group leader, he heard an unfamiliar voice behind him:

"Is this piece of paper the treasure you're talking about?"

"Of course not, but this piece of paper must be a very valuable treasure map..." He stopped mid-sentence, then suddenly turned to Paimon, looking wary, and asked, "Wait, who are you?"

Paimon, hands on his hips, proudly introduced himself:

"Hmph, I am Paimon, the ultimate treasure hunter."

Conan automatically ignored Paimon's title and looked at her white hair with slight surprise.

Are you a foreigner?

Genta Kojima, however, didn't think that much about it:

"A super treasure hunter? Oh, I see! You're here to steal the treasure, aren't you!"

Upon hearing this, apart from Conan, the remaining two members of the Detective Boys, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi, also became wary.

Mitsuhiko immediately said:

"The treasure is ours, we're not sharing it with you."

Seeing this, Paimon wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he crossed his arms and said with a disdainful look:

"What? I think you're just afraid I'll find the treasure before you. With that kind of guts, you call yourselves the Junior Detective Club? You might as well call yourselves the Junior Goody Boys Club."

"Damn it! How dare they look down on us!" Seeing that Paimon, who was even younger than him, could despise him, Genta Kojima immediately said angrily, "Fine, I'll show you. Anyway, even if you see the treasure map, our Junior Detective League will definitely be the first to find the treasure."

They're such kids, they fell for such a simple trick.

Seeing that Genta actually handed the treasure map to Paimon, Conan was naturally speechless.

Is it too late for him to quit the Junior Detective Club? Otherwise, if he spends too much time with elementary school kids, he'll feel like he'll catch their bad habits too.

However, despite thinking this to himself, Conan didn't really believe that the piece of paper Genta had casually picked up could actually be a treasure map, so he didn't bother to stop him.

Paimon, however, shook his finger and said confidently:

"Hmph! No matter what kind of treasure-hunting group or detective team you are, you're all worthless in front of me and Yin Kong, the most powerful ace partners!"

Yin Kong? Yin Kong!

Conan initially seemed unconcerned, but upon hearing Yin Kong's name, he instantly became alert.

This little girl, Paimon, is actually connected to that man?

Conan subconsciously looked around and was soon surprised to find that Yin Kong had been standing not far away, watching them with a smile.

"Long time no see, Conan." Seeing that Conan had finally noticed him, Yin Kong walked over and looked at the Junior Detective League. "Are you guys playing a treasure hunt? How about I join you?"

It really is this man!

Conan's expression changed slightly, because after returning home yesterday, he had asked the professor to help him find information about the Adventurers' Association, Catherine, and Dumani.

To his shock, the doctor only found the Adventurers' Guild and Catherine, but the two were not related and did not match the image described by Yin Kong at all.

As for Dumani, there is absolutely no source for it.

While Conan was still in shock, Genta Kojima pointed incredulously at Paimon:

"Your companion is actually an adult?"

Paimon said matter-of-factly:

"Of course Yin Kong is an adult. There's no rule that only children can go on adventures and treasure hunts together, right?"

Mitsuhiko exclaimed excitedly:

"You're bullying the weak, that's not fair!"

Paimon snorted lightly, then said with a proud expression:

"I'm not a member of your Junior Detective Club. I, Paimon, have already reached an adult level, which is why I can go on adventures with Yin Kong. If you think it's unfair, you can ask your adult friends for help. You can't find any, can you?"

Chapter 60 Maple Leaves and Deer Arrive

"Damn it!"

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi were naturally quite angry at Paimon's words, feeling that he was completely underestimating them.

What angered the three even more was that they found they couldn't find a way to refute it at all.

If some time passes, the Junior Detective League could get Professor Agasa involved, but right now, unless Conan is willing to help, they obviously aren't that close to Professor Agasa yet.

Seeing the three react this way, Paimon naturally became even more smug:

"Don't be discouraged. I'm Paimon, the super treasure hunter. It's normal for you to lose to me. After all, you did contribute a little bit. Once we find the treasure, I'll give you special permission to touch it too."

These words clearly made the three of them even angrier.

Ayumi shouted:

"Don't get too cocky. Don't think you're guaranteed to win just because you have an adult helping you, right, Conan?"

Paimon, hands on his hips, said confidently:

"It seems you haven't realized how cruel reality is. Yin Kong is no ordinary adult."

At this moment, Conan, naturally, didn't share the same thought process as these three brats. Upon hearing Paimon's words, he immediately had an idea and asked, following Paimon's lead:

"Oh? Then I wonder what makes this Brother Yin Kong so special?"

Paimon didn't think much of it, and immediately raised his little face, proudly counting on his fingers:

"There are so many things. We've talked bad about the Wind God together, eaten at the Rock God's restaurant, fought with the Thunder God... Wait, why am I telling you all this?"

Conan, who had been full of anticipation and hoped that Paimon would inadvertently reveal some important information related to Yin Kong's identity, immediately had a big question mark on his head.

Wind God? Rock God? Thunder God?

What is all this mess?

Sure enough, this little girl named Paimon is just like Yin Kong, suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).

Moreover, it seems to be even more serious than Yin Kong's case.

Judging from her appearance, she seemed to genuinely believe that these things had actually happened.

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but feel sympathy when he looked at Paimon.

"So, Brother Yin Kong, are you also interested in the treasure map?"

Seeing that Conan's probing had failed, he abruptly changed the subject, turning his attention directly to himself. Yin Kong raised an eyebrow slightly.

It seems this kid has grown quite bold overnight.

“Since Paimon is interested, I’m naturally willing to help her look for it.” At this point, Yin Kong also pointed to Conan’s glasses, “By the way, Conan, I think I forgot to check your glasses last time.”

Conan, however, remained completely calm upon hearing this, clearly having been prepared beforehand. He shook his head and said:

"No need, Brother Yin Kong. After I got home yesterday, Sister Xiao Lan had a professional check my glasses, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with them!"
