Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

"After all, the trains there are mainly for sightseeing, and besides—"

A familiar chubby boy ran over and loudly corrected him:

"Moreover, the Shinkansen is a high-speed railway, which is even more advanced than a regular train."

However, before Yin Kong and Paimon could answer, Guangyan retorted:

"Yuanta, are you sure you're not mistaken? Shouldn't high-speed rail be a type of train?"

"What? I said no, so it's no!"

Seeing that the two elementary school students were about to argue about whether high-speed rail should be considered a train, Paimon looked at them and said:

"I remember now, you're that boy band, right?"

"It's the Junior Detective League!"

Genta and Mitsuhiko immediately forgot their argument and reminded him with dissatisfaction.

"Oh, it's the Junior Detective Club. I'm really sorry, I rarely remember the names of my defeated opponents."

The three of them suddenly felt as if they were being mocked by Paimon, but what he said seemed to be right, and for a moment they couldn't find any angle to refute it.

Finally, Genta and Mitsuhiko immediately chose to pin the blame on Conan:

"It's all Conan's fault. He wasted too much time. Otherwise, we would have won."

"That's it!"

Only Ayumi Yoshida retorted:

"You two are going too far! Conan is just slow to react, slow to move, and a little slow at solving puzzles, but he still found the treasure in the end, didn't he?"

Hearing the commotion, Conan listened helplessly to Ayumi's explanation, feeling as if she had stabbed him three times in the heart.

But, is Yoon Sora also on the Shinkansen?

"Oh, Mr. Yin Kong?" Sure enough, Xiao Lan immediately noticed Yin Kong and Paimon, and stood up to greet them warmly. "And this little boy, he's so cute! What's your name?"

Paimon puffed out his chest and introduced himself:

"My name is Paimon, and I'm Yin Kong's best friend."

Yin Kong nodded, glanced at the bustling carriage, and said:

"That's right, I really didn't expect to meet you all here, what a coincidence."

He glanced at the mission instructions and found that the next step was to wait for thirty minutes.

Chapter 81 Kogoro Mouri

Wait until 30 minutes later?

Yin Kong seemed to be deep in thought.

Based on his experience with missions, this probably meant that the important figure would make his official appearance in about thirty minutes.

Could he be a member of the Black Organization?

That being said, although I've been living in this city for several months, I don't think I've encountered any members of the Black Organization yet.

The only one, Vermouth, was actually a demon in disguise.

However, when has Conan ever encountered the Black Organization on the Shinkansen?

Yin Kong thought about it carefully and realized that he really had no memory of the plot this time.

"Paimon is so cute, Conan, you should try to get along with her."

Upon hearing Xiaolan's praise, Paimon's happy smile instantly froze.

"No way!"

Conan still remembers clearly how he used to call Paimon "Big Sister" but actually wanted to get information out of her.

His previous rudeness towards the Junior Detective League was clearly due to his dislike of them as well.

"Huh?" Xiaolan was taken aback and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Kogoro Mouri casually remarked:

"I think this brat must have done something naughty again and upset someone."

Xiao Lan immediately said:

"Alright, alright." Kogoro Mouri's gaze fell on Yin Kong, and he asked, "Is this a friend of yours, Ran?"

He seemed very polite and didn't look like a student. Could he be a teacher at Teitan Junior High School or Teitan Elementary School?

Kogoro Mouri had a very good first impression of Yoko, so his attitude became unusually serious.

"Hello, my name is Kogoro Mouri. If you need to investigate your girlfriend's infidelity or extramarital affair, you can contact me."

Hearing Kogoro Mouri speak of the undisguised confidence he displayed while investigating extramarital affairs, Yin Kong couldn't help but feel a deep respect.

"You really are Mr. Mori. It's an honor to meet you."

"Oh? You've heard of me?" Even if it was just a polite remark, Kogoro Mouri was unusually excited to hear this. "I didn't expect that among these young people, there are people who have heard of my name, Kogoro Mouri! Hahaha..."

Seeing Kogoro Mouri already laughing triumphantly, Ran couldn't help but cover her forehead and whisper a reminder:

"Dad, Mr. Yin Kong might just be being polite."

Yin Kong shook his head and said:

"That's not the case, Miss Mori. I have indeed heard of Mr. Kogoro's great name for a long time."

Not to mention Ran, even Conan's expression turned incredibly surprised.

He had already personally experienced Yin Kong's abilities.

He couldn't see anything about this muddle-headed uncle that made him worthy of the phrase "I've heard so much about him."

Kogoro Mouri himself obviously didn't share the same doubts as the other two. Hearing Yin Kong's praise, he was completely carried away with pride, laughing so hard that his tongue was sticking out.

Even Paimon couldn't help but lean close to Yin Kong's ear and whisper a complaint: "This uncle's way of laughing is so unique."

"Oh, right, Mr. Mori, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yin Kong, and I currently run the Omnipotent Detective Agency, Rabbit House..."

Wait, so you're in the same industry.

Upon hearing about Yin Kong's profession, Kogoro Mouri's laughter stopped abruptly.

Originally, he thought Yin Kong was a rare, sensible young man, and very agreeable, but that good impression vanished in an instant:

"What, so he's just like that brat Kudo. These young people nowadays are all so ambitious, always wanting to be some famous detective, completely forgetting what it means to be down-to-earth..."

Yin Kong could naturally tell that Kogoro Mouri's words were not entirely directed at him, but rather filled with resentment towards a certain high school detective.

However, considering that this Uncle Mori will be happy with the title "Sleeping Kogoro" in the future, I know that these complaints now will most likely become boomerangs thrown at me in the future.

However, Paimon clearly couldn't stand such "slander":

"Uncle, aren't you being a bit too hasty? We solved the case entirely on our own merits, not by being overly ambitious. By the way, there's going to be a press conference this afternoon to promote the case we just solved."

Noticing Xiaolan's puzzled look, Yin Kong explained:

"It's a press conference. Conan, aren't you curious about the Maple Leaf Coin case? The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will be holding a press conference this afternoon, and they should be going to give a detailed account of the whole case."

What?! There's even a special report on it, and it's hosted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?!

Kogoro Mouri was completely speechless.

Originally, seeing how young Yin Kong was and how humble he was, he thought that Yin Kong was just like him, struggling to make ends meet by running a firm.

Unexpectedly, this guy seems even more outrageous than Shinichi Kudo.

At least in Kogoro Mouri's memory, even Shinichi Kudo doesn't seem to have ever enjoyed such treatment.

In contrast, Xiaolan said with a face full of admiration:

"Wow, Mr. Yin Kong is amazing!"

"What?" Genta's voice suddenly appeared, and he said with a regretful look, "Doesn't this mean that if Conan had been a little smarter, the Junior Detective League would have been the ones being interviewed today?"

Hearing his companions' complaints, Conan just chuckled.

He knew very well that even if they had found those maple leaf coins ahead of time yesterday, they wouldn't have been able to enjoy such treatment.

The reason is quite simple: if it were a detective agency like Kou-Usa, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department could at least explain it as a partnership.

But if the Junior Detective League recovers the stolen goods, and then they hold a press conference, wouldn't that be tantamount to telling everyone that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is not even as good as a bunch of elementary school students?

Unless Inspector Megure and his team are completely shameless, they would never agree to such a thing, even if it's just to lure out the forces behind the scenes.

It's almost time.

Amidst the casual conversation, time quickly passed until the task notification point arrived.

But will anyone from the distillery actually show up?

Yin Kong was beginning to have some doubts, because the carriage was still completely calm, and apart from the occasional little devil passing by, there was nothing noteworthy.

Since the golden feather of [Yata Crow] remained on Conan, Yin Kong has every reason to believe that [Kabuto no Kitomaru], which fought it that day, is actually likely entangled with the Black Organization.

If there really were demons of that level on the train, then even if Yin Kong didn't see them with his own eyes, he couldn't possibly be completely unaware of them.

"Sister Lan, I'm going to the restroom."

Under Yin Kong's watchful eye, Conan quickly ran to the carriage door and bumped into two men in black.

Chapter 82 Why Did the Demon Blade Fall Here?

No, it shouldn't be Gin, just two people who are very similar to the Gin and Vodka distillery brothers.

Unlike Conan, who was caught off guard and frozen in place, not even daring to look up to check, Yin Kong recognized at a glance that the two men dressed in all black, who did indeed look like members of the distillery, were definitely not the real Gin and Vodka.

Simply because it's just too ugly.

As the first member of the Black Organization to appear, and perhaps the only one who will still be a respectable figure in the future, Gin is quite handsome.

In fact, their skill level has reached such a high that they would be recognized at a glance even if they were mixed in with a crowd, making them completely unsuitable to be assassins.

So, was this mission just a feint?

Yin Kong wasn't too disappointed. As long as he could get some raw stones, he didn't mind making a few more trips.

However, that is—

But soon, Yin Kong noticed that behind the two beggar brothers from the brewery, there was a piece of steel that looked somewhat familiar.

Yin Kong raised an eyebrow slightly, because he quickly sensed the ominous aura emanating from the steel fragments.

This was indeed the kind of demon he was familiar with, born from shadows or extremely negative emotions.

He had seen enough of those distorted and evil demons, but this was probably the first time he had ever encountered a demon that couldn't speak at all, or even make a sound.

Even the original Barbatos juvenile form wasn't completely speechless; it was just that its intense hatred led it to pinpoint the murderer who killed it.

Once it has successfully taken its revenge, it will degenerate into one of those ordinary demons that can be found everywhere.

"Yin Kong, this should be a fragment of that demon sword, right?"

Paimon had obviously noticed this strange scene as well, and leaned close to Yin Kong's ear to ask in a low voice.

She still has a very deep impression of the great battle that swept through the entire city.

The fragment before me, in both shape and texture, closely resembles the demon sword that [Kuba Onikimaru] wielded in his hand to fight against [Yata-Uru] not long ago.

And it was indeed shattered into pieces before it could summon the power of the abyss.

The two beggar brothers from the distillery were clearly unaware that they had become the focus of several pairs of eyes, and swaggered past the crowd in the aisle.

Yin Kong had clearly inherited the true teachings of a certain unclean-handed lord. After the two passed by, he naturally reached out and tried to help them remove the fragments floating behind them.

Then, his palm went straight through the shard.

So, is it because I haven't gained my approval yet that I can't reach it?

Since that's the case, I've decided on you—

Barbatos juvenile form.

The adorable magical cat was released by Yin Kong once again. After receiving Yin Kong's command, it immediately wagged its tail and quietly followed the two men in black.
