Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

Even so, they gritted their teeth and held onto a sliver of hope.

Seeing this, Paimon immediately said:

"These stubborn fools, go! Ren, teach them a lesson!"

Paimon has no sympathy for these bad guys who want to teach him a lesson or even steal his treasure.

Yin Kong nodded and said:

"It's time to give it a shock."

"Alas--!"

Just half a minute later, the three robbers knelt on the ground without any backbone, and began to weep bitterly for their crimes:

"We were wrong, we confessed everything! Please let us go..."

Hisaki Shinobu's electric shocks were ten times, or even a hundred times, more terrifying than they had imagined.

The electricity from the stun gun seems to have eyes, specifically targeting their most vulnerable spots where they can feel the most pain.

Let alone the fact that the three of them were just low-level henchmen, even highly trained elites might not be able to withstand Hisaki Shinobu's interrogation.

"But all we know about the treasure map is that it was drawn by the boss. As for anything else, we really don't know anything!"

Yin Kong had no doubt about this.

If they really had a clue, these three guys wouldn't have gone so far as to choose to follow a group of first-grade elementary school detectives in the original storyline.

Moreover, I followed them around for a whole day.

"So, why are you stealing Maple Leaf Coins?"

Upon closer analysis, it becomes clear that this is actually a very strange thing.

Although the Maple Leaf Gold Coin is quite valuable, it is not particularly eye-catching among the many treasures in the exhibition hall, and can even be described as having extremely low cost performance.

For the average person, 15,000 maple leaf coins would be an extremely cumbersome and heavy object.

Even so, these gold coins are only worth about 600 million yen in total.

However, among the many treasures exhibited alongside them is a crown inlaid with a huge diamond, with a conservative estimate of over two billion yen.

Of course, these robbers probably didn't think that much about it at all.

They probably just thought that gold coins could be melted down into gold, making it easier to sell stolen goods?

However, the value of these maple leaf gold coins largely comes from their status as cultural relics. If they were actually melted down into gold, they might not even be worth 100 million yen.

There shouldn't be such a stupid robber in this world.

It shouldn’t be…right?

However, looking at the three guys in front of him, Yin Kong was a little unsure for a moment.

Under his intense gaze, the dark-haired, thin-faced man immediately said:

"We don't know either. That's what the boss ordered: only take maple leaf coins."

Noticing the slight hesitation in the guy's eyes, clearly indicating he was still holding back, Hisaki Shinobu immediately snorted coldly and raised the stun gun.

"I'll talk! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! Just don't let this thing get near me!"

Upon seeing this, the dark-haired, thin-faced man was immediately terrified and dared not hide anything any longer:

"I overheard the boss letting slip on the phone that if you can grab the Maple Leaf Coins, you can have more money than you can spend in your lifetime."

So, is there another force behind this?

Unfortunately, when he continued to press them for answers, the three henchmen were completely clueless.

It seems I still have to rely on myself.

Fortunately, Yin Kong has memories from outside the world, so he is not truly clueless.

If his memory of the fish wasn't wrong, then these strange patterns were actually simplified versions of the neon lights the bandit leader had seen along the way.

The tower, of course, is the Tokyo Tower that they are seeing right now.

The moon at the top represents nighttime.

The bottom horizontal line represents the riverbank.

However, it's broad daylight now, so finding the location of these neon lights will still take some effort.

At the McDonald's near Tokyo Tower, Professor Agasa couldn't help but smile kindly as he watched the Detective Boys, who were completely absorbed in the colorful snacks and had almost forgotten about the treasure.

Hearing Conan's serious words, Professor Agasa immediately rushed over, worried.

He took the restless group of teenage detectives to McDonald's and temporarily subdued them with food.

However, people's joys and sorrows are clearly not shared.

While the Junior Detective League was having a great time, Conan, who was completely clueless, was getting increasingly frustrated.

"New Conan, still no clue?"

Seeing Conan's increasingly agitated behavior, Professor Agasa couldn't help but remind him:

"Would you like to eat something and rest for a bit?"

This high school detective had been sketching and writing on paper for almost two hours, but unfortunately, he still couldn't understand the bandit leader's peculiar thought process.

Conan shook his head and said:

"No, Doctor, what if that man finds the gold coins first?"

Dr. Agasa scratched his head and comforted him:

"Actually, Shinichi, based on your description, I don't think that Mr. Yin Kong seems like a bad guy who's connected to that mysterious organization."

After all, no matter how well they disguise themselves, it's impossible for members of the Black Organization to actually carry a small child with them, right?

"Then we absolutely cannot lose!" Conan clenched his fist and said excitedly, "This match is a matter of dignity for me, the famous high school detective."

Seeing this, Professor Agasa knew that Conan's fighting spirit had been completely ignited this time, so he shook his head and stopped trying to persuade him.

Although the words sound nice, the more anxious you are, the less you can organize your thoughts.

In the end, it was Ayumi's casual reminder that made Conan, who was on the verge of going crazy, have a flash of inspiration and connect the strange pattern on the paper with the shop's signboard.

Although he initially mistook the moon above Tokyo Tower for Tsukimi-dori (Moon Viewing Road) and wasted a lot of time, he eventually found the abandoned building where the gold was hidden after many twists and turns.

"Hehehe, Yin Kong, as expected, I, the great detective Shinichi Kudo, am still the best—wait, what's with these police officers?"

However, when Conan confidently arrived at the entrance of the building, the smug expression on his face instantly froze.

Because he saw two police officers on duty, who were guarding the spot.

Chapter 63 Conan's Transformation

Why are the police here?

Conan immediately had a bad feeling, and that feeling soon became a reality.

Soon after, Yoon Sora and Inspector Megure walked out of the building, chatting and laughing.

"We really owe a lot to Brother Yin Kong this time. Otherwise, if we hadn't been able to find the stolen goods, the pressure on us would have been immense."

Inspector Megure's attitude was clearly much warmer than before.

After all, such a large robbery occurred on his territory, and the owner of these gold coins was a very influential foreign tycoon, so the pressure on them was unimaginable.

Yin Kong's actions this time were far more appreciated by Inspector Megure than simply helping them solve ten or eight murder cases.

"Hey, isn't that Conan?"

As they were talking, Yin Kong noticed Conan standing blankly at the door and said with a smile:

“Inspector Megure, this is one of the kids who found the treasure map. Without him, I probably wouldn’t have found the stolen goods.”

Paimon also peeked out from behind Yin Kong and exclaimed in surprise:

"You're quite clever for finding this place."

Although his adjusted appearance makes him look a little smaller than the Junior Detectives, Paimon clearly doesn't see himself as a child.

Unfortunately, Conan was clearly no longer able to hear Paimon's praise at this moment.

My title as the great detective Shinichi Kudo has been lost so easily!

Conan suddenly knelt down, looking utterly bewildered.

Upon hearing Inspector Megure's words, he knew that Yin Kong had indeed found the Maple Leaf Coins far ahead of him.

If he had arrived any later, he almost wouldn't have even been able to inhale the exhaust fumes.

Damn it, how can the gap be so exaggerated?

If he could still find excuses for himself in previous cases, then this time, there is no doubt that he has lost.

And it was an undeniable and utter defeat!

Seeing Conan seemingly fading, as if his entire body had turned gray, Inspector Megure couldn't help but be startled:

"Isn't that Conan? What's wrong with him?"

He still vividly remembered Conan, who had helped catch the kidnapper two days earlier.

After all, that day, Inspector Megure encountered the Mori family three times in a row at the scenes of the roller coaster murder case, the Yoko Okino apartment murder case, and the kidnapping of the chairman's daughter.

Even in his many years of investigating cases in Beika Town, this was definitely a very strange thing.

Dr. Agasa gave an awkward smile and explained:

"It's nothing. They're probably just devastated because they discovered the treasure was actually stolen goods. You see, they're the same."

As expected, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi were all extremely disappointed after hearing that the police had already put their "treasure" away.

However, it's not nearly as exaggerated as Conan's actions.

"Cheer up, Shinichi," Professor Agasa whispered, seeing this. "Aren't you worried about your identity being exposed?"

Conan's eyes were lifeless; he felt that his life had become utterly meaningless.

"It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, I've completely lost the title of Shinichi Kudo."

Professor Agasa hadn't expected that this incident would be such a blow to Conan, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

"Hey, you little rascal, your name is Conan, right?"

Just then, Paimon floated over.

Conan paused for a moment, then finally looked up in confusion, staring at Paimon with bewilderment.

He had no idea why the little guy would suddenly call him by his name.

After all, they had only met once and could hardly be considered familiar with each other.

Besides, don't you look younger than me?

Why are you calling me "little guy" instead?

Paimon waved his hand and said:

"Actually, you don't need to be so frustrated. Losing to Yin Kong is just a normal thing."

"Victory and defeat are common in war. Since you lost, just honestly admit it, correct your mistakes, and win it back next time. You're so smart at such a young age; you'll definitely become a very capable detective in the future..."

Is this little boy named Paimon trying to comfort me?

Conan was stunned once again as he watched Paimon solemnly spouting profound truths.

Wait a minute, when did Shinichi Kudo become such an easily frustrated guy?

Although this is probably the first time I've lost to someone of similar age, I should be quite familiar with the taste of defeat. So why am I so dejected this time?

Shinichi Kudo, Shinichi Kudo, has your body shrunk so much that your mind and mental resilience have also become like a child's?

If Yin Kong could hear Conan's inner thoughts at this moment, he would most likely tell him with certainty that he had indeed guessed the truth.

Zhong Li once said that the Conan before him had not only undergone physical rejuvenation, but also spiritual rejuvenation.

In other words, his mind and spirit have actually regressed to the state of a seven-year-old.

However, because he inherited all of the experiences and ways of thinking of high school student Shinichi Kudo, Conan was just "Shinichi Kudo in his smaller form" when he first shrunk.
