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

Kudo Yuki looked at the scene on the screen and burst out laughing.

Outside the door, a group of staff members surrounded the new anchor Mengchuan Caizi. She was wearing a beautiful professional suit, with exquisite makeup, and standing at the front with a smile.

"Good evening! I'm Yumekawa Ayako from Toudou TV. Please take care of tonight's live show."

Vermouth instantly switched to Kudo Yusaku's voice, "Hello, hello, you are Miss Yumekawa, you are really beautiful."

Yumekawa Ayako was slightly stunned, with a puzzled look on her face: "That's not right. We came here the day before yesterday to discuss the shooting process. We must have met at that time."

Vermouth was not at all flustered. She imitated Kaito Kid's signature move, extended her hand gracefully, and shook hands with Yumekawa Ayako like a gentleman.

She bent down slightly, her eyes teasing, "No, no, I mean I can't recognize her anymore. Young girls are getting prettier every day."

Yumekawa Ayako blushed at the praise, and she looked like a blooming peach blossom. She looked at Vermouth with seductive eyes, her eyes full of shyness and joy. Vermouth saw this and moved closer to her little by little, and the scene was so funny that people couldn't help laughing.

However, at this moment, Conan's face suddenly turned gloomy. He stepped on Vermouth's shoe, and Vermouth felt "pain" and frowned slightly.

But Conan did not give up. He twisted the upper of Vermouth's shoe and continued to step on it, with such force that it seemed as if he was venting his dissatisfaction.

"Well, let's get ready for the shoot, Uncle Yusaku." Conan explained with a smile, but the smile on his face seemed a little stiff. As he spoke, he glared at Vermouth, warning her not to mess around again.

When Kudo Yuki saw this scene, she almost laughed out loud.

Shushu opened his eyes and laughed so hard that he fell backwards. He looked like he deserved a beating. "I didn't expect Vermouth to be so skilled. She even used this trick. She handled Kaito Kid's move just right. It was so funny to watch."

Shushu laughed and patted the bed with his little paws, applauding this wonderful scene.

Kudo Yuki shook her head helplessly. She looked at Vermouth and Conan on the screen and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This live show is bound to have surprises and surprises."

Vermouth looked down at Conan with a smile in her eyes: "Yeah, that's right."

"Then let me borrow your study room temporarily." After saying that, Ayako Mengchuan led a group of staff towards the study room.

Vermouth smiled and said, "Please go ahead."

Conan glared at Vermouth again, and that little face clearly said: Don't talk nonsense to me.

A group of staff came to the study and immediately got busy. Some of them were placing spotlights, while others were debugging equipment. The whole study was filled with a tense and orderly atmosphere.

Yumekawa Ayako came over at this time and said, "By the way, Mr. Kudo, we still need some time to adjust the equipment. Please go to another room and put on your makeup first."

Vermouth quickly refused with a smile: "No, no, I have already put on my makeup, this is fine."

Yumekawa Ayako looked confused: "Yes, is that so?"

Conan secretly complained in his heart: "If I put on makeup, the makeup will definitely be exposed."

"Teacher Kudo, I was a little curious just now. I think I have seen this child somewhere before."

Vermouth was about to speak when Conan interrupted her and said, "I am the famous Kidd's nemesis. My name is Edogawa Conan."

Vermouth had no choice but to follow Conan's words and explain: "He is the child of a friend of mine, and he insisted on coming to watch the filming of the show."

"I see." Yumekawa Ayako began to look around the room. "Where is your wife? When we met the day before yesterday, she told us that she would show her face."

Conan spoke directly: "Aunt Yukiko is not feeling well and has been lying down to rest."

"That's such a shame, I hope she gets well soon."

"Thank you for your concern."

"Well, we'll call you when everything is ready." After saying this, Ayako Mengchuan turned around and went to do other work.

Kudo Yuki looked at Shushu who was cracking pine nuts on the bed and whispered softly, "Shushu, I'm going to go see Yukiko. I'll be back soon."

Shushu's eyes never left the screen, he just waved his little paw, "See you later."

Kudo Yuki walked into the room of the Kudo couple and saw Yukiko with her eyes closed, already in a coma. She gently removed all the makeup on Yukiko and moved her to the bed.

Then, Kudo Yuki took out a bottle of healing agent from the system space, divided it in half between the Kudo couple, and applied it on their foreheads.

After a few minutes, beads of sweat began to appear on the foreheads of the Kudo couple. Conan opened the door and walked in. Looking at his parents lying on the bed, his face was full of worries.

Conan's worry was evident: "Sis, are they really going to be okay?"

"Don't worry, they will be fine." Kudo Yuki glanced at the time and said, "Brother, time is running out. Quickly explain the case to 'Kaito Kidd' and don't let it get away from you! Otherwise, you'll be in trouble tonight."

Conan nodded, "I understand, sister."

After seeing Conan leave, Kudo Yuki returned to her room, sat in a comfortable chair, and focused her eyes on the screen again.

Conan walked into the living room with small steps. Vermouth had already changed back to Kaito Kid's voice: "What's going on?"

Conan put his hands in his pockets, "They're fine now, but we need to take them to the hospital as soon as possible."

Vermouth held the tablet in her hand and said, "If we can cancel the filming of this program, we can call an ambulance immediately. But, we can't bring shame to my benefactor. Okay, tell me the whole story of the case as soon as possible."

Conan narrated the clues and process of the case in a concise and clear manner, and all the details were clearly presented to Vermouth. "Well, did you find anything?"

Vermouth frowned and thought, then slowly said: "At the door of the first murder scene, there was a paper bag filled with something, and at the door of the second murder scene, there was also a plastic bag from a convenience store.

There were bags on the ground in front of the doors of the two cases, but there was no bag at the door of the third scene. However, I saw a frying pan on the ground, and the strange thing was that the frying pan on the ground was black, but the kitchen utensils hanging on the wall were all silver. "

"Is there more? Is there more?"

Vermouth pretended to be distressed and spread her hands, saying, "That's all."

"What? It's not solved yet."

Vermouth forced a smile: "What does it matter? Anyway, you have already found out the truth. Tell me the method of committing the crime and the murderer quickly."

Just as Conan was about to speak, there was a knock on the door, interrupting him.

Vermouth changed to Kudo Yusaku's voice: "Please come in."

A staff member pushed open the door with an apologetic look on his face: "Excuse me, Mr. Kudo, we are all ready, you can come over."

"Yeah, okay, I'll come now."

The staff member said politely, "Excuse me." Then he gently closed the door and walked away.

Conan frowned: "There's no time, just go for it."

He took out a small headset from his pocket and handed it to Vermouth, "You can hear my voice through the headset, just say it as you say."

Vermouth switched to Kaito Kid's voice: "Okay." She put the earphones into her ears and got ready.

Until the live broadcast time, Shushu switched the system screen to the Maori Detective Agency.

Ran Mouri and Kogoro Mouri were sitting on the sofa, watching TV.

Mao Lilan held orange juice in her hand and stared at the screen.

"Hello, viewers. The recent serial murder cases that are shrouded in mystery have aroused great concern. Tonight we have connected with a special guest to broadcast the mystery-solving process live."

Mao Lilan was excited: "It's started."

"Can you hear me? Anchor Mengchuan."

Mao Lilan exclaimed: "Conan said he is staying at the doctor's house tonight, and he can watch it live."

Maori Kogoro felt a little unhappy, muttering to himself: "I can't stand it. I am a famous detective, but I have to listen to the reasoning of a novelist."

Kudo Yuki teased Shushu and gently rubbed his ears. This action seemed to touch a "switch", and Shushu subconsciously pricked up his ears: "Xiaoxue, my hearing seems to have improved."

Kudo Yuki showed a surprised expression and turned her gaze to the system screen again, looking forward to what would happen next.

"Next, we would like to invite Mr. Yusaku Kudo to share his views on the serial locked-room murders." Yumekawa Ayako held the microphone, her eyes full of anticipation.

She leaned slightly and raised her voice: "Teacher, everyone is saying that this case is a serial murder case, but the three victims died in different ways. And they have no connection at all. Is this really done by the same murderer?"

At this time, Vermouth was sitting on a chair, her hands resting lightly on the table, her posture calm. Conan was hiding under the table, nervously holding the badge communicator and whispering information.

Belmore changed into the voice of Kudo Yusaku and murmured slowly according to the lines provided by Conan: "Yes, it was done by the same person. The locked room method of the three cases is exactly the same. And the three victims have something in common."

"really?"

"Yes. I'm sorry, I can't show you the scene photos provided by the police." Vermouth paused slightly, recalling the details of the scene.

“At the first crime scene, there was a bath towel hanging on the bathroom cabinet with a striking magnifying glass pattern printed on it.

In the second victim's house, there were many figurines of him carrying magnifying glasses that he had carefully made. In addition, the third victim's watch was a unique magnifying glass style.

This magnifying glass is the logo of the online game "Dungeon Holmes". I think the three victims must have been players of this game."

“Is there still such a game?”

Vermouth frowned slightly, "Strange, Miss Mengchuan, you can't be unaware of this. Just now, you suddenly changed your hand to hold the microphone, and put your left hand behind your back in a panic. You must be wearing the same watch on your left hand."

"This, this is..." Ayako Mengchuan was panicked for a moment, her eyes flickered and the expression on her face became extremely unnatural.

She raised the watch on her left wrist and forced a smile to show everyone: "Dunshi gave it to me. I think the style of this watch is very beautiful, so I have been wearing it."

"It's no use pretending to be stupid, because the murderer of this serial murder case is you, Miss Yumekawa Ayako, am I right?"

In the Maori Detective Agency, Maori and his daughter were shocked to hear the news, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

As a result, the TV program was interrupted and the TV showed that it would continue later.

When Kudo Yuki saw Vermouth finish speaking the lines given by Conan, she was also shocked, and countless questions arose in her mind.

Yumekawa Ayako's hand holding the microphone was trembling slightly. She murmured under the pressure: "Please, please, Mr. Kudo, are you kidding me?"

Vermouth coughed twice to ease the embarrassment: "Please wait a moment." Then she bent down, looked at Conan under the table, and whispered in the voice of Kaito Kid: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that she was the murderer?"

"What can I do? Just as I was about to say it, the show started. Okay, just answer according to what I say first."

“Yeah.” Vermouth sat up straight again, a smile reappeared on her face, and she spoke in the voice of Kudo Yusaku: “Oh, sorry.”

Yumekawa Ayako was a little nervous: "Teacher, I just hid this watch because I was afraid of being suspected. You said I was the murderer of these three cases. What is your basis?"

Vermouth waved her hands quickly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere. "Don't get excited. Let's not dwell on who the murderer is. I can prove that this series of locked-room murders was committed by the same person. So, let's start with the locked-room method."

In the Mouri Detective Agency, Mouri Ran and Mouri Kogoro are still waiting for the TV broadcast.

"what happened?"

Maori Kogoro poured a glass of wine and drank it all. "The murderer turned out to be a staff member of our own TV station. The higher-ups must have stopped the program immediately after they found out."

As soon as the voice fell, the TV screen reappeared. The room instantly became quiet, and Maori and his daughter stared at the TV screen.

"I'm really sorry that some unexpected things happened during the show. We just interrupted the live broadcast, but the situation has changed. Our show will go on as usual. Please continue to watch."

The host held the microphone and apologized, while also trying to regain the audience's attention.

The scene switched to the study in the Kudo family house, and Vermouth began to solve the puzzle using Kudo Yusaku's voice.

"These are the scenes inside the doors of the three closed-room murders that I asked the staff to prepare. As you can see, there are a lot of things scattered inside the three doors."

Vermouth stood up and pointed at the three simulated scenes in front of him, which showed the scenes inside the doors of the three crime scenes. A pile of messy items were scattered on the ground, giving people a chaotic and compact feeling.

To be continued...
