Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Haibara Ai looked at the player Higo's cell phone pendant in her hand with a complicated expression, a hint of confusion in her eyes. She reached out and grabbed Conan's ear and pulled him in front of her.

Conan was caught off guard by this sudden action. He covered his painful ear and shouted with gritted teeth: "What are you doing? Huiyuan."

Huiyuan Ai lowered her voice: "I can give you the antidote."

When Conan heard this, his eyes lit up with excitement, and his voice unconsciously rose a few decibels: "Really?"

Huiyuan Ai frowned and warned seriously: "But you must strictly follow my instructions: First, you cannot take another tablet after the drug effect wears off. You must wait 8 hours before taking it again."

Conan nodded quickly: "I know!"

"Second, you must not be discovered by people around you while your body is shrinking. If you are discovered, you and I will be in big trouble!" She stared at Conan with a warning look in her eyes.

Conan patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I will be careful."

"Third, avoid attracting attention. Prepare countermeasures in advance and don't cause trouble everywhere."

Conan pouted: "I don't have any!"

Huihara Ai glared at him and said, "Fourth, don't do anything too intimate."

Conan's face suddenly turned red: "I know!"

"Fifth, let Sister Xue follow you this time. She can help keep an eye on you and prevent you from getting into any trouble."

Conan is really trying hard to go on the school trip with Xiaolan: "I promise."

At this time, Kudo Yuki heard the noise and walked towards the two of them in confusion, "What are you doing here?"

Conan and Haibara Ai looked at each other and quickly adjusted their expressions. Conan smiled and acted obediently: "Nothing, sister." Haibara Ai put away the mobile phone pendant as if nothing had happened.

Kudo Yuki looked at the two of them suspiciously, "Is it really nothing? I always feel like there's something weird about you two."

Conan quickly waved his hands, "It's nothing really, sis, we were just discussing some small things."

Huihara Ai also pretended to be calm: "Well, just some unimportant topics."

Kudo Yuki narrowed her eyes into half-moon shapes, her expression serious: "Something is wrong, Xiao Ai, can you tell me what's going on?"

Huihara Ai's eyes were somewhat evasive, and after a moment of hesitation, she finally confessed: "Okay, Sister Xue, it was Conan who asked me to give him the antidote. He wanted to recover his appearance as Kudo Shinichi and participate in the school trip."

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Conan.

Conan hung his head like a deflated ball, mumbling, "Sister, I really want to go with Xiaolan."

Kudo Yuki crossed her arms over her chest and frowned: "Conan, are you so anxious? Do you know how dangerous this is? What if we are discovered?"

"Sis, I'll be careful."

Huiyuan Ai added: "I have already made five rules for him. First, he cannot take the next pill right away. He must wait 8 hours before taking it. Second, he cannot be discovered by people around him while his body is shrinking. Third, he must avoid attracting attention. Fourth, he must not do anything too intimate. Fifth, he must let Sister Xue follow him this time."

Kudo Yuki listened and her expression eased a little: "Ai, you too, how could you agree to him so easily."

Huiyuan Ai shrugged helplessly: "I can't get rid of him. Look at his pitiful appearance..."

"In that case, Conan, you must strictly abide by the agreement this time." She paused, her eyes became sharp, "If something goes wrong, your antidote will be changed back after it is successfully developed."

"I keep my promise, sis."

"Okay, let's set off early tomorrow morning."

"That's great! Thank you, sis!"

Huiyuan Ai reminded coldly: "Don't forget my requests, Kudo Shinichi."

"I remember it clearly."

The next morning, Kudo Yuki went to the back door of the secret weapon in advance, drove her car to the Kudo house, and drove her younger brother to the meeting place. Kudo Shinichi's heart was pounding, and a shy expression appeared on his face as he thought about seeing Xiaolan soon.

Kudo Yuki looked at Kudo Shinichi's nervous and excited expression, and shook her head helplessly: "Look at your useless look, you are so excited just to meet Xiaolan."

Kudo Shinichi scratched his head embarrassedly: "Sister, please stop making fun of me."

After arriving at the destination, Kudo Yuki squinted her eyes and enjoyed the scenery. The breeze blew through her hair, and her delicate profile was even more attractive in the sun.

Mao Lilan's eyes were attracted by the back of a familiar star, and she ran forward involuntarily: "Hello, you can't be the actress Miss Kuji Keiko."

Akachi Keiko was slightly startled at first, then quickly looked around, put her index finger to her lips to make a hushed gesture, and blinked playfully: "I came here secretly, please keep it a secret for me."

Masumi Sera and Sonoko Suzuki also walked over to Ran Mouri. Sonoko Suzuki excitedly held up the camera and said, "Can we take a photo with you?"

Keiko Ara looked at the three people with expectation in their eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose, "Okay, but don't be too ostentatious."

Mao Lilan happily called her classmates to join her, and everyone quickly stood in position to take a group photo.

Keiko Kurachi looked across the crowd at Kudo Shinichi who was standing nearby. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she called out to him, "Wait a minute, are you Kudo Shinichi, the high school detective? You are Yukiko's son."

Upon hearing this, Kudo Yuki walked over to her brother and said, "Shinichi, who is this?"

When Arachi Keiko saw Kudo Yuki, a bright smile spread across her face: "Xiaoxue, you are getting more and more beautiful."

Kudo Yuki was stunned and didn't react for a moment. After a moment, she slowly said, "Excuse me, who are you..."

Anzhi Keiko let go of her hand and smiled: "Xiaoxue, don't you remember me? Your mother and I are very good friends. I have seen you at your house before."

Kudo Yuki suddenly realized and smiled politely: "So that's how it is, because Miss Jingzi looks quite young and her temperament is becoming more and more outstanding. I really didn't recognize her just now."

Kudo Yuki looked at Kudo Shinichi with a smile on her face, with a mischievous look in her eyes: "Shinichi, when you were little, Miss Keiko changed your diapers."

Kudo Shinichi's voice was a little unnatural: "Sister, don't bring up things from your childhood." However, he quickly adjusted his mood, and the three of them began to chat enthusiastically.

An Zhijingzi took out a pen and a small notebook from her bag and wrote something on it seriously: "Since we are staying in the same hotel, can you and Xiaoxue come to my room tonight? I have something I want to show you."

Kudo Shinichi asked in confusion: "What is that?"

Akachi Keiko looked at the two with a smile, and her voice unconsciously lowered a little: "It's a code. Don't detectives like to crack codes and find the truth?"

As she spoke, Keiko Kurachi tore off the page of paper and handed it to the siblings, her fingers casually running across the paper: "Come see me tonight at 9 o'clock. Here, this is my room number."

The two took the note and looked at it carefully. Kudo Yuki's eyes revealed curiosity, while Kudo Shinichi seemed to be thinking about something.

Akachi Keiko pursed her lips slightly, and murmured a little regretfully: "Actually, I originally wanted to ask Yukiko's husband to help take a look. The code is too complicated, and it's still a little difficult for Shinichi. Maybe Xiaoxue can help."

Kudo Shinichi's expression suddenly became serious: "No, there is no problem at all."

Kuji Keiko blinked and said with a hint of sarcasm: "You can bring your girlfriend along! It's the girl with long hair over there, right? She's been staring at us."

Kudo Shinichi's face turned red all of a sudden. He looked at Mouri Ran, who snorted softly, turned around and walked away, her long black hair swaying gently with her movements.

Kudo Yuki patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Shinichi, don't worry. Wait until the code is cracked tonight and then explain it to Xiaolan."

Kudo Shinichi nodded helplessly, but his heart was in turmoil, as if there was a little rabbit in his chest.

Kudo Yuki returned to the hotel room and sent a copy of the information about Akai Mary to Zhu Fujingguang, leaving a message to remind him:

Hiro, this information is extremely important. Please archive it and organize the information.

Kudo Shinichi was on a school trip with his classmates, visiting various attractions with great interest, his face full of youthful vitality. He talked with his classmates from time to time, and his laughter echoed among the crowd.

The lights in the city gradually lit up, and Kudo Shinichi remembered the agreement with his sister. He took out his cell phone and called Kudo Yuki: "Sister, I'm done here, let's go to Miss Anzhi's room quickly."

When Kudo Yuki met Kudo Shinichi, she raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced behind her: "Sonoko, Masumi, you two are here too."

"How can we be left out of such an interesting event?"

"Maybe I can help!"

The group arrived at Keiko Kurachi's floor. After getting out of the elevator, they walked quickly along the carpet and came to room 1506. Kudo Yuki knocked on the door politely.

The door slowly opened, and when Keiko Kurachi saw the people outside, she showed a little surprise on her face: "Oh, besides that girl, you also brought other people here."

Kudo Shinichi quickly apologized: "Sister Xue and I said we would come to see you, but they all want to come too. Isn't that a bit bad?"

"It's okay, it's good to have some fun."

Sera Masumi showed his little fangs: "Leave it to me to crack the code."

Suzuki Sonoko came over and said, "Ms. Kurachi, she is a female high school detective."

Akachi Keiko smiled, her eyes full of anticipation: "That's great."

Mao Lilan stood aside. At this time, she looked at the hat on Keiko Kurachi's head and asked: "Do you have to wear a hat in the room too?"

Keiko Kujira fiddled with her hat with her hand, looking a little embarrassed: "Because I fell while filming a movie and got a big bump on my head."

Suzuki Sonoko's face was full of gossip: "Could it be the movie that will be released this weekend?"

"That's right, the red Shura Tengu, the ancient fantasy drama starring me, my performance is the biggest selling point." Jing Hayamori also came over and introduced with his head held high.

Ma Shanfeng folded his hands in front of his chest and walked slowly towards him, with a proud look on his face: "Isn't the selling point of our movie the skill of a famous director like me?"

Agata Riki refused to give in: "No, no, no, the biggest selling point of this movie should be my music."

An Zhijingzi looked at them and said, "They are all my bad friends from college."

Kudo Yuki got straight to the point: "By the way, what is the code you mentioned?"

"I almost forgot. The code is in the hands of screenwriter Ximu. Let's go to his room to find him."

As Keiko Kurachi said this, she led the five people towards Room 5.

Mr. Ximu held the envelope in his hand, his expression solemn: "This is the code someone sent to me last week. In addition to this code, there was also a dried leaf of the golden hollyhock."

As he said this, he handed the envelope to Kudo Shinichi.

Kudo Shinichi took the letter and checked it with his sister. Kudo Yuki pointed at the black four-square pattern, and Kudo Shinichi looked up: "Mr. Nishiki, do you know what the four black squares at the beginning of the code mean?"

"It's Izukuri, the mark of the guy who came up with this code." Izumiya gave the answer without hesitation, with a look of reminiscence on his face.

"He drew these squares on his notebook and backpack," added Agata Riki, gesturing the shape of the squares as he spoke.

Sera Masumi frowned slightly: "Then why don't you just ask the person called Ikuri, then you will know what the code means?"

Mr. Nishiki frowned and said in a heavy tone, “It’s because I can’t ask. Ikuri committed suicide by jumping off the Qingshui stage a while ago.

So, I think this code should be his last words to me before he committed suicide. I hope someone can help me decipher it and see what he wants to say. "

His eyes revealed deep helplessness and confusion.

Ma Shanfeng leaned slightly aside and said, "We are going to the restaurant of this hotel to eat. If you want to know the details, come with us."

Kudo Yuki smiled and declined, "Thank you, but I prefer not to."

Arachi Keiko's eyes were full of expectation: "Then send me a message after you have solved the code."

Kudo Yuki brought four high school students to the hotel corridor where there were tables and chairs for rest. The lighting in the hotel corridor was soft and quiet.

Kudo Shinichi placed the coded envelope flat on the table, and Sera Masumi quickly walked to the beverage vending machine and skillfully ordered a bottle of drink.

Suzuki Sonoko pouted: "This code has too many empty words."

"The arrangement of the text is also crooked." Mao Lilan looked at it carefully, moving her fingers along the direction of the text.

Sera Masumi walked over with a drink in hand, "I think the empty spaces between the words must have some meaning."

Mao Lilan asked: "What do the golden leaf leaves that were sent along mean?"

Kudo Shinichi tapped the table with his fingers and guessed, "The octagonal gold plate is the thing that Tengu often holds."

At this moment, text message alerts rang from the phones of Kudo Yuki and Kudo Shinichi at the same time. Kudo Yuki opened the message and frowned, "It's a text message from Miss Keiko. There's something wrong with Mr. Nishiki's room. Come with me to check it out."

When the group heard this, their expressions suddenly became nervous and they stood up and walked towards Mr. Ximu's room.
