Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

Of course, what surprised him even more was what Xiaolan said.

"What? Conan is missing?"

After hearing Ran's words, Yin Kong subconsciously opened the map and discovered that the instance representing Conan was indeed no longer at the Mouri Detective Agency, but in a different location—

Next to a world boss called "Prisoner"?

Good grief, they're raiding but not inviting me, huh?

Seeing this, Yin Kong roughly guessed that Conan had probably gotten involved in some case again.

After all, the world bosses who survived that great battle were all highly skilled.

While Yin Kong was thinking, Xiao Lan immediately explained:

"Yes, I was thinking that Conan seemed quite interested in the Rabbit House before, so I was wondering if he might come over and bother you—oh!"

Suddenly, Yin Kong heard a deafening clap of thunder outside the window, followed by a downpour.

"Miss Xiaolan?"

Upon noticing that Xiaolan had fallen silent after letting out a gasp, Yin Kong couldn't help but ask.

"N-nothing." Xiaolan's voice trembled involuntarily. "I was just... just a little startled."

Clearly, this girl who can tear down roller shutters is not only afraid of all sorts of supernatural ghosts and monsters, but also terrified of thunder.

Although not to the point of being completely paralyzed with fear, hearing the barely concealed trembling voice, Yin Kong shook his head helplessly and said gently:

"Conan didn't come here, but Miss Ran, you don't need to worry too much. I guess the little guy is probably out playing with the Detective Boys again, right?"

Now that Gin has been caught, Conan is probably finally able to unleash his true nature.

“Yes, that’s right.”

Xiaolan suddenly realized that if they were traveling with the Junior Detective League, they wouldn't have to worry too much about encountering any danger.

Of course, if Yin Kong knew what Xiao Lan was thinking, he would probably laugh and tell this naive girl that it was precisely because she was acting with the Junior Detective Club that she was more likely to encounter danger.

Letting Conan act alone, as long as he doesn't encounter an opponent of the level of the Black Organization, shouldn't be a big problem.

"Speaking of which, didn't I recommend a lot of study materials last time? How come Conan still has time to run around everywhere?"

Hearing Yin Kong's relaxed tone, Xiao Lan's initial fear eased considerably.

"But Conan is very smart. He can give the answers to those tutoring materials at a glance, so there is really no need to waste time."

Ran is very open-minded. Since these materials aren't very useful, she naturally won't let Conan stay at his desk all the time.

"I see."

Yin Kong raised an eyebrow, then suggested:

"Why don't we sign Conan up for a few interest groups? It's such a waste to let such a great talent go to waste. Learning more skills might come in handy in the future..."

“That makes sense.” Ran paused for a moment, then nodded. “Conan is so good at soccer. If we start training him now, he might become a soccer star in the future.”

Yin Kong agreed:

"I think it's very possible."

After all, even the world's most famous football star couldn't possibly kick a satellite to pieces with a football, right?

If the doctor's foot-strengthening device can pass the test in the competition, then football matches will probably become a truly life-or-death sport in the future.

"By the way, if you're going to be with the Detective Boys, you can ask Professor Agasa; he should know something."

"Ah! You're right."

Xiaolan, realizing what was happening, immediately thanked them repeatedly.

"It's nothing. Even if I didn't remind you, you would have thought of Professor Agasa soon enough."

After all, this person is also Conan's guardian.

Speaking of which, the fact that Ran didn't call him directly but contacted herself first is probably because Conan's behavior today was too obvious, to the point that even Ran noticed.

Yin Kong thought for a moment and added:

"If Professor Agasa doesn't have any leads either, you can call me again. Putting aside everything else, when it comes to finding people, we at the Rabbit House are professionals."

Xiao Lan naturally thanked them repeatedly. After hanging up the phone, she decided to prepare a beautiful gift and visit them another day to express her gratitude.

Just as Yin Kong was considering whether to teleport over directly to check what was going on, Xiao Lan called again.

Just as he suspected, Conan's late return home meant he had indeed gone out with the Detective Boys.

Professor Agasa not only didn't stop him, but also specially made him new equipment—

Of course, if it's a normal haunted house, then there's really nothing that can stop it.

Let alone the fact that most haunted houses are just rumors, even if they do hold some secrets, they are unlikely to be a match for the science of soccer.

But at this hour, the Junior Detective League still hasn't gone home, so it's very likely that they've encountered some kind of accident.

The only problem now is that all Professor Agasa knows is that they seem to have gone on an adventure to a haunted house.

But he had no idea which haunted house it was.

Chapter 166 New Ideas

So it's a haunted house adventure?

Listening to Xiaolan's description, Yin Kong vaguely remembered some of it.

He had forgotten most of the specific details, but he vaguely remembered that it seemed to be an old mother who, in order to protect her murderer son and prevent him from going to jail, locked him in an underground prison she had built herself.

Although such behavior may seem a bit abstract, it appears quite commonplace in the world of Detective Conan.

On the bright side, at least she only locked up her son; she didn't kill him outright.

"Mr. Yin Kong, could you come with me to find Conan and the others?" Ran's tone was full of shame, after all, it was still raining heavily outside, and her request was a bit too much to ask. "I have a... bad feeling."

If possible, she certainly didn't want to trouble other people.

However, a thunderstorm combined with a haunted house would be an absolute hell for her if she didn't have a reliable companion.

Yin Kong didn't mind going to check on the situation:

"It's okay, that's fine."

Upon hearing Yin Kong's agreement, Xiao Lan was overjoyed:

"That's great. As for the commission, I'll pay the highest possible rate..."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Mori immediately complained:

“I’m telling you, Xiao Lan, those little guys are probably hiding somewhere to avoid the rain, there’s really no need to waste money on them… Besides, it’s just asking Brother Yin Kong for a favor, talking about a commission fee is too formal.”

Xiaolan looked helplessly at her father, who was sitting on the sofa drinking beer and watching TV. Frustrated, she covered the microphone and said:

"It's all because of your excuses, Dad. If you were willing to take me out to find someone, I wouldn't need to bother Mr. Yin Kong."

As for asking someone to help find someone on a rainy day, let alone the fact that Xiaolan doesn't feel she's that close to Yin Kong yet, even if they were really good friends, she wouldn't leave without any thanks after helping with something like that.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Mori couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He doesn't get any commission, so why would he go out in the pouring rain?

Besides, there's a live horse race later, and he's placed a huge bet this time, so he won't be satisfied until he sees the result with his own eyes.

"That's right, Mr. Yin Kong. Are you at the firm? I'll come find you now."

"No need for the commission fee. Just don't refuse when I ask Miss Xiaolan for your blessings next time." Yin Kong thought for a moment and then refused directly. "Besides, I'm not at the agency right now, so it would be troublesome to meet up. It's more convenient to act alone."

For him, the most convenient way was naturally through the instance, where he could teleport directly to Conan's side.

But if we take Xiaolan with us, we'll have to stick to our journey and probably even have to come up with a plausible reason.

Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head vigorously:

"No, no, how can this be?"

Given her personality, even if she had to pay a commission, she wouldn't sit in the office and reap the benefits while others were out in the rain looking for someone, let alone the fact that Yin Kong didn't even accept a commission.

"Miss Xiaolan is afraid of thunder and ghosts, isn't she?" Yin Kong chuckled and said, "If we act together, we might encounter something very scary. Why don't you just stay at the agency and wait for my news?"

Xiao Lan wanted to say something, but then she realized that Yin Kong had already hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy signal, the high school girl paused for a moment, and a look of disappointment immediately appeared on her face.

I'm afraid of thunder, I'm afraid of ghosts...

Am I a little too useless?

Xiaolan has always been aware of these shortcomings, and her relatives and friends are also very aware of them, so they have always taken good care of her.

Even Mr. Yin Kong, whom she had only recently met, made a point of being considerate of her feelings.

But at this moment, Xiaolan suddenly felt a little disgusted with herself for being so useless.

Although Mr. Yin Kong did not say it explicitly, given his current state, even if they were to force each other to act together, it would only have the opposite effect.

Shouldn't I learn to overcome these shortcomings?

Yin Kong had no idea that his casual remark would plunge Xiao Lan into a dilemma.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately summoned [Barbatos the Child].

This little guy has just finished digesting some of the demonic power and hasn't had time to fall into a new slumber yet, so it's a good time to accompany him on this trip.

After becoming invisible, Yin Kong immediately teleported.

“Ahhhh——”

As soon as he landed, Yin Kong heard a familiar scream.

Of course, it wasn't him who exposed himself, but rather Ayumi, who had fallen to the ground, who was screaming loudly at a demon statue.

Yin Kong looked around and found that he was now in the hall of a Western-style house.

The owner of the mansion seemed to have a great fondness for all sorts of strange artworks, so the hall was filled with all sorts of odd sculptures.

During the daytime, these arrangements would probably only be considered rather strange.

In this dim and dark night, where only lightning can light up the darkness for a moment, these sculptures appear particularly eerie and terrifying. No wonder not only Ayumi screamed in fright, but Mitsuhiko and Genta also looked terrified.

Only Conan, with a strange expression, clutched his chest.

Because just now, that strange feeling came back again.

Yin Kong originally planned to call the police directly and have Inspector Megure take the group of kids and the murderer in the house away together.

However, when he saw the old newspaper on the table next to him that reported on the murder case five years ago, and the photo of the victim in the newspaper, a new idea suddenly came to him.

However, relying solely on the [Barbatos Juvenile Form] is not enough to achieve this.

Because the magic of the magical cat can only change appearance at present, it cannot change voice.

Yin Kong thought for a moment and took a mask out of his backpack.

【The Ever-Changing Mask】.

After the body of the "Hundred-Faced Witch" was destroyed again, Yin Kong obtained another mask.

When he put the two masks together, they automatically combined to form this [Multi-Changing Mask].

After putting on this mask, Yin Kong can adjust his appearance, voice, and body shape at will according to his own wishes.

However, this disguise will immediately become ineffective once you enter a battle, so it can only be considered a small tool to make life easier.

Soon, Yin Kong's body twisted and turned into the appearance of the victim in the newspaper.

While the others were comforting Ayumi, he also deactivated his invisibility and asked with a smile:

"Hello, children, what brings you to my house?"

His sudden appearance, unsurprisingly, once again startled Ayumi and the other two, causing them to scream.

Of course, all four flashlights shone on him at the same time.

"Who...who are you?"
