Yokohama singer is also working hard to remove the curse today

Knotaba Yuhito counted the time with his fingers, and finally came up with a number, he let out a long sigh.

"We've been here for over a week."

Not to mention that the case has not progressed much, and the accommodation time left by Conan Edogawa for them is only more than half a month.If they can't solve the case, they will have to find another place to stay.

Yuzu Youren scratched his hair irritably, wanting to vent something, but couldn't find an opening, so he could only lay down on the table helplessly: "I really don't have a clue at all, as if someone deliberately hid the clues .”

Zhongyuan Zhong also paused while drinking coffee.

hide?

A bold idea quickly flashed through his mind, Nakahara also pursed his lips, and grabbed Edogawa Conan's wrist who was flipping through the files beside him.

Edogawa Conan was stunned for a moment, then raised his head strangely: "What's wrong?"

"...I have something to ask you."

Edogawa Conan was baffled, and he thought that if he had something to say, he could just say it here?Seeing that Zhongyuan Zhongye was hesitant to speak, he quickly realized something, put down the tablet in his hand and nodded at him: "Got it."

The three of Katsuobu Youhito knew that Zhongyuan Zhong also had his own secrets. Seeing him mysteriously dragging Edogawa Conan out, although they had doubts in their hearts, they all knew it and didn't ask any more questions.

Zhongyuan Zhong also pulled Edogawa Conan out of the house, found a corner where no one was around, and hurriedly asked: "I have something I want to ask you. If... I will use an example." He simply organized it in his heart. After clicking the words, he continued: "There is a person who is very close to you. You have lived together for a long time, but one day he suddenly disappeared. You searched all the places but did not find him, but you found that the person you experienced recently There are clues behind him."

"Later you experienced a new incident. When you were so busy, you discovered that the person who had been avoiding you suddenly appeared in the media, completely exposing his whereabouts, and the incident you are investigating is like It’s like getting advice from an expert, and you can hardly find any clues. What kind of role do you think this person played in this matter, and what is his purpose?”

Edogawa Conan glanced at Nakahara Chuya in surprise.

Although Zhongyuan Zhongye used "parables" as an excuse for his remarks, as long as he is not a fool, he can understand the meaning behind his words.Obviously, what happened refers to the recent "Fox Demon Killing Incident".So what Nakahara Chuya meant was, is there any acquaintance he used to be behind this incident?

Nakahara looked closely at Conan Edogawa, clenched his hands unconsciously.

He also prepared for a long time before deciding to inform Edogawa Conan vaguely about this matter.Due to the concealment of a large amount of information, no matter how high the IQ of Edogawa Conan is, he cannot get more information from his words than the surface of the incident.

Zhong Yuanzhong also knows that if possible, it is best not to involve too many people in this matter.It's just that he also understands in his heart that in terms of his IQ and strategic ability, it is not enough to compare with someone like Osamu Dazai who knows everything about him. Even from the beginning, every step of his life has been firmly calculated by Osamu Dazai up.If he wants to make a breakthrough, he can't find any way except for an existence like Edogawa Conan whose IQ is also against the sky—even maybe he will ask Edogawa Conan, which is already in Dazai Osamu's calculation Maybe.

In the final analysis, he really couldn't think of Dazai Osamu's real purpose.

After all, he never really understood what that man was thinking.All he can do is to protect Osamu Dazai as much as possible, remove all obstacles and troubles for him, and pave the way ahead for him, so that his journey will not be so difficult.

But even so, in the end, he could only watch Osamu Dazai go to the end step by step, until...

Until what?Obviously the memory is blank, but the sudden acceleration of the heartbeat and the uncontrollable sadness spreading from the chest constantly remind Nakahara Chuya that he has indeed forgotten some things-some very, very important things, as if they have been engraved into him In the flesh and blood, things of extreme despair and sadness.

Fortunately, at this time, Edogawa Conan's voice interrupted Chuya Nakahara's thoughts and brought him back to reality from a state of confusion.

"I have a rough idea of ​​what you want to say. If my reasoning is correct, then the person you mentioned who disappeared is very likely to have a plan for this matter."

Nakahara Chuya's fist tightened a bit.

Edogawa Conan continued: "I think the reason why he would do this is to distract you...to distract me. If I am busy with a certain event, what I have always wanted to find If they suddenly appear, I will definitely want to hunt them down, but because of my duties and tasks, I cannot give up the case at hand. If my will is not strong enough, or I am too impatient, then my attention to the case will easily fade If you are not careful, you will miss some key clues. Coupled with his deliberate interference, many clues that should have been left behind will be erased. At that time, the process of solving the entire case will be extended, thereby achieving the effect of delaying time. .”

"Did you delay..." Zhong Yuan also muttered to himself.

"You said that he appeared suddenly, right?"

Zhong Yuan also nodded.

Edogawa Conan continued: "If a person disappeared for a long time, but suddenly appeared somewhere, what do you think the reason would be? Either, his current situation does not allow him to continue to hide, or, he has already I don’t want to hide it anymore. Or—he’s laying the groundwork.”

"Let's not talk about the former, if he doesn't want to hide it anymore, then he doesn't need to delay here. As for the latter." He paused, looked at Zhongye Zhongyuan with burning eyes, and said firmly: "He appeared at that position The number of times should be more than once, right?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also nodded and said: "Yes, they appear there frequently within a week."

"That's right." Edogawa Conan smiled: "It's not a very suitable analogy, if I want to pursue someone, but the other person doesn't know me, then if I show up for the first time, I will go up and meet her." Talking, the other party will definitely think that I am really strange and a pervert. But if I know that she will often walk on a certain road at a certain time, and then I will meet her on this road for a month at this time, The other party will definitely feel that I am very familiar, and it will not be too abrupt to talk to him when the time comes. The same is true for that person, if he only appears once at a certain point of time, it will definitely appear abrupt, but if he appears frequently, it will give people the feeling It seems to be living nearby, or doing something. If I use this deliberately extended time layout to rationalize my appearance, when he appears in front of me again, he will have a reasonable and convincing Convincing reasons for me to believe."

"If it's what I think, then when he completes the layout, it's time for the incident to be resolved. The dinner will be prepared later, and the purpose of procrastination has been achieved, so why continue to procrastinate and waste time?"

The mystery that plagued my heart suddenly became clear under Edogawa Conan's reasoning, Nakahara also breathed a sigh of relief, and sincerely said: "Thank you."

"Better thank me." Edogawa Conan crossed his arms, his immature face was mature beyond his age, and his pair of wise eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts: "You should be very clear that once I encounter unknown things, Surely there will be an investigation to find out the truth, right?"

"I am certain."

"Then aren't you worried? If you tell me about this, I won't easily let go of the opportunity to know the truth."

"I won't stop you, and I hope to continue to cooperate with you." Zhongyuan Zhong also said seriously: "But I hope you can slow down the investigation of this matter, you are just an ordinary person, rashly involved in this matter It will only make you die without a place to bury you. Unless I can completely ensure your personal safety——except me, no one can ensure your safety."

"Then after you can ensure my safety, will you tell me everything?" Edogawa Conan looked at him firmly.

Zhong Yuanzhong also nodded, and said decisively: "I will."

Edogawa Conan looked at him for a long time, then suddenly chuckled, and his whole body relaxed: "I believe in you, and I won't act rashly."

He does have a far more obsession with the truth than ordinary people, but he has experienced so much, and because of his recklessness, he once harmed himself and put the people around him in a dangerous situation.At that time, there were powerful partners like Shuichi Akai and Toru Amuro by my side. Although the other party was terrifying, they were not beyond the scope of normal human beings.But now it was different, it was all about mysterious areas, curses, and spells that he had never touched before. He couldn't even see these things clearly with his naked eyes, let alone fight against them.

He may risk his life for the truth and saving people, but when everything is still settled and the fog is shrouded in dense fog, he will not bet on his own safety, let alone harm the people around him. harm.

"Speaking of which, don't your partners plan to tell them?" Edogawa Conan said, "They care about you very much. Are you sure you want to keep this secret from them?"

Zhong Yuanzhong would also pull him out to explain these things, just because he didn't want the three of them to know.Edogawa Conan can see clearly when he has been acting with them these few days, the three of Knotabagi Yuhito have the same enthusiasm on the outside and inside, and they really treat the partners they recognize with all their hearts and souls, and they don't hide it at all.As for Nakahara Chuya, although he gets along well with everyone on the surface, as long as you observe carefully, you will find that he is neither cold nor indifferent to anyone, as if wearing a mask, even what he is showing now, Not his real character either.

What a guy who is full of secrets.

Conan Edogawa was curious about Chuya's secrets, and felt a sense of intimacy for no reason.

Why isn't he like this, he is full of words and wants to confide, but he has to pretend to be because of the secret he carries.

Hearing Edogawa Conan's words, Nakahara was stunned for a while, and finally shook his head, showing a bitter smile.

"They're fine, it's just..."

Before determining Dazai's position, he really couldn't fully integrate into the camp of the conjurer high school.

This group of teenagers is very good, exuding radiance on their bodies, warming the people around them like the sun, carrying out their own justice, and going to save them.

But the Central Plains is also different from them.He who crawled out of the darkness had long since given up on the so-called "justice". He did not have such enthusiasm. After leaving the port mafia, only Osamu Dazai remained in his light.

If Osamu Dazai really chooses the dark side completely, then he will stand beside Osamu Dazai without hesitation, even if he is an enemy of the master of magic arts.

That's his obsession, and it's all about him.
