The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

This was the first time Qin Zhibo saw Heiyu Pianyi's full face.

Although I had seen Pickman's "Monster Thief" before, the black feathered Thief in that painting was wearing an exaggerated costume, and the upper half of his face was covered by the shadow of the hat brim, making it difficult to recognize clearly.

And Kuroba Toichi in this photo, for some reason, put on a pair of glasses on a whim...

…

After Kuroba Kaito finished washing, he found a new set of bedding from home.

While Kuroba Kaito was tidying up the bedding, Qin Zhibo turned to look out the window and looked at the Nakamori family next door.

It is now 9 o'clock in the evening, and the lights are on on the first and second floors of Zhongsen's house.

There are light pink curtains on the inside of the balcony glass on the second floor, which should correspond to Nakamori Aoko's room.

In the living room on the first floor, Nakamori Ginzo can be seen sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and watching TV.

Nakamori Ginzo, a man who looks like Mouri Kogoro.

Moreover, his destiny is somewhat similar to that of Mouri Kogoro. Both were raised by an old man who raised his daughter...

Qin Zhibo was thinking this when he saw a woman holding a fruit plate in her hand, coming to sit next to Nakamori Ginzo.

The woman was wearing loose house clothes, big black-rimmed glasses on her face, her hair tied back, and she looked like an intellectual woman.

After sitting next to Nakamori Ginzo, the woman brought the toothpick with fruit to Nakamori Ginzo's mouth, with a doting smile on her face.

Um...what's going on?

"Isn't Nakamori Ginzo a bachelor?"

Faced with Qin Zhibo's sudden question, Kuroba Kaito, who was kneeling on the ground spreading a quilt, frowned.

"Why do you suddenly think of asking this? Of course not..."

"But Aunt Bizi is usually very busy with work. She seems to work at the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office. Even I don't see her often..."

"That's it." Qin Zhibo nodded clearly.

Previously, I saw that Mori Ginzo was so obsessed with capturing Kaito Kid, and thought his wife might have died of illness, so he devoted himself completely to work to numb his brain.

It seems that they are just purely dedicated to their work...

Qin Zhibo looked away from the loving couple next door and saw that Kuroba Kaito had laid out the quilt.

"Okay, let's get started!"

Kuroba Kaito closed the curtains, and the excited expression on his face made Qin Zhibo a little scared.

Black brother! No!

Brother Hei...

"Ahem, why are you in such a hurry?"

Qin Zhibo looked up at the clock. It was still early and it was not even the usual time to go to bed.

Besides, I didn't get up until three o'clock in the afternoon today, so I don't feel sleepy yet.

Qin Zhibo explained his problem, and Kuroba Kaito's expression immediately became a little disappointed.

After all, he might see the father he hadn't seen in eight years tonight, so he naturally wanted to see him as soon as possible.

"Then what should we do? We can't wait until midnight to go to bed, right?"

Kuroba Kaito suddenly had an idea, "How about I use the sleeping gas used against the police to help you fall asleep?"

"Forehead……"

Qin Zhibo thought about it for a moment, and it was okay.

If you fall asleep with that thing, your head will probably not feel too good when you wake up.

After all, compared to Conan's anesthetic needle, this sleeping gas should be a relatively backward product.

"Okay, you go look for it."

With Qin Zhibo's consent, Kuroba Kaito quickly took a sleeping gas bomb from Kaito Kidd's secret stronghold.

On the surface, the Kuroba family is an ordinary small villa.

In fact, underneath this ordinary villa, there is a stronghold with an area equal to the entire villa and yard, serving the identity of "Phantom Thief Kidd".

When Kuroba Kaito emerged from behind the mural, he was holding a hypnotic gas ball with a diameter of three centimeters and a gas mask in his hand.

This hypnotic gas ball was used by Kuroba Kaito when he first inherited Kaitou Kid's identity, but he gradually stopped using it.

On the one hand, Nakamori Ginzo is already prepared for hypnotic gas, and will have his subordinates prepare gas masks before each base-catching operation.

On the other hand, if the hypnotic gas stuns the police and the audience at the scene, how can I show off my superb magic skills and observe the reactions of the people around me?

Kuroba Kaito put a gas mask on his face, and then handed the hypnotic gas ball to Qin Zhibo.

"Just squeeze it hard before using it, and then throw it to the ground."

"That's right! I almost forgot to tie the rope..."

Kuroba Kaito tied the magic prop that Koizumi Anko made before, which can connect the dream world, around their wrists.

Although Kuroba Kaito himself can now enter the dreamland, if there is no rope connection, Qin Zhibo, who has interrupted the dreamland progress midway, will be randomly teleported to the vicinity of the current progress.

In other words, although dreamers who are judged to be in the "same team" can share each other's position progress, when others share this position, the position may not be very accurate.

With this rope connected, the rebirth place of the two people after entering the dreamland can be closer.

"alright."

"let's start!"

Kuroba Kaito put on a gas mask and lay down on the bed.

Qin Zhibo, who was sitting on the floor, looked at the hypnotic gas ball in his hand. When he pinched it with his index finger and thumb, he felt like something inside was crushed.

Immediately after the sphere expanded and ruptured, a somewhat pungent smell spurted out.

Qin Zhibo put the gas ball aside, resisted the urge to cover his nose, and closed his eyes.

Just like lighting a large mosquito coil...

As the hypnotic gas continued to be released, Qin Zhibo's consciousness gradually weakened until he completely fell into a coma.

Darkness came like a tidal wave.

…

When he woke up again, Qin Zhibo found himself in a strange cabin.

In the dim and humid environment, only the gaps between the decks above revealed streaks of light that formed the Tyndall effect.

Looking around with this faint light, I found that this was a public cabin, with a hammock hanging between every two pillars.

Only a handful of bodies were still lying on these tattered hammocks, which were as tattered as fishing nets, swaying gently as the ship as a whole swayed.

Qin Zhibo still remembered this place. This was one of the cabins of the black three-story multi-oared sailing ship that took him and Kuroba Kaito out to sea.

This dreamy black sailboat has a total of three levels below the deck. The first level is the cabin where people live, which is the level where I am currently.

The second level is the oar level, which is the level where huge oars stick out from the window to paddle the water.

The third and lowest floor is used to store cargo. Passengers can store their cargo here when the ship docks, and then move it away after it docks.

The rules of the ship are that once you board the ship as a passenger, you are not allowed to enter the two lower levels.

Especially the second oar level, no one is allowed to enter at any time, including after docking.

When Kuroba Kaito was chatting with other passengers on the boat, he learned that the oars of this type of black sailboat were not allowed to enter.

And it seems that no one has ever seen any creature come out of this layer.

But no matter day or night, those dozen pairs of huge oars will provide a steady stream of power for the ship to sail on the sea.

This makes the sea navigation efficiency of these black sailing ships the highest in the entire dreamland, so it is very difficult to obtain a pass to board the ship.

However, there are also some sea voyagers who avoid this kind of ship...

While Qin Zhibo was summarizing the rules of this place in his mind, not far away, Kuroba Kaito sitting on the hammock was waving to him.

Kuroba Kaito's side is close to the steps leading to the deck, so the light is relatively bright, so he can be recognized at a glance.

Qin Zhibo also waved as a response.

Then, he made a gesture with his index finger pointing upward, which meant to talk on the deck.

Soon, the two of them passed through the public cabin, which was slightly damp and smelly, and arrived at the top deck.

Looking around, the black sailboat was sailing among the blue sea and sky.

Looking at the endless blue vast sea in front of me, the feeling of depression that was born in the cabin with extremely poor conditions just now was instantly swept away.

"It seems that I was lucky this time. It was daytime when I was born..."

Qin Zhibo put his hands on the wooden fence and said to Kuroba Kaito beside him.

The last time I came here was at night, and I spent at least half of the time in the cabin. The feeling was so sour and refreshing.

Hiccups, teeth grinding, farting, all kinds of sounds, and the smell is also very unpleasant.

"Um……"

Kuroba Kaito looked around, "But I'm afraid we still won't be able to reach the northern continent before night..."

"Because until now, I can't even see the shadow of a continent."

Kuroba Kaito raised his hand to cover his eyebrows and looked towards the sea.

In the real world, it would be difficult for him to succeed in finding distant continents in this way. Based on this, it would even be a bit stupid.

Because the earth is round, people sailing on the sea can actually only see a few kilometers away at most.

The navigator standing on the observation tower can see more, but it is only more than twenty kilometers.

But in the dreamland, the earth is on a flat surface.

In the high tower of Usa Town, the wise elder Atal talked about many common senses in the dreamland, one of which is that the earth is flat.

Since the earth is flat, ships can only travel to the four regions of southeast, northwest and northwest on almost fixed routes and cannot go around in circles.

The end of the flat earth in Fantasyland is also the place where the endless sea water returns, and it is the endless abyss of void.

No one knows where this void abyss will eventually lead, because no human being has ever been brave enough to go there.

Even if it dares to go by boat, it is impossible for any creature to fall into the abyss and come back.

Qin Zhibo guessed that the reason why Dreamland has such a setting is because ancient people believed that the earth was a whole plane, and seawater would flow into the void at the edge of the earth.

It was Magellan's journey around the world that made mankind fully realize that the earth is round.

But before that, countless dreamers and dreamers had already used their imagination to shape the dreamland into an entire plane.

Not only that, there are many things in the dreamland that completely violate the physical rules of the real world, which are probably caused by the "ignorance" and imagination of ancient people.

Therefore, it is completely feasible for Kuroba Kaito to look for continents in this world by looking out.

"Well, it seems I can only continue to sleep here."

Qin Zhibo sighed helplessly and changed the subject again.

"But before night falls, we must collect as much materials as possible to make the spell."

Qin Zhibo told Kuroba Kaito the three materials of the spell based on the knowledge in Xuanjun's Seven Chapters Secret Scripture.

Purple talismans, the blood of spiritual creatures, and spiritual creatures or objects.

Among them, the most important spiritual creature, Qin Zhibo guessed, was a mythical creature other than humans.

For example: Ghoul.

It's just that Qin Zhibo doesn't know whether there are spiritual creatures on this ship. After all, this is only his second time here.

Therefore, Qin Zhibo planned to collect information on spiritual creatures and purple talismans during the day.

After landing, they will quietly start looking for sacrifices...

"It's such a happy decision!"

Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito confirmed the plan and started taking action respectively.

The ship is very large both vertically and horizontally, and it is a clear daytime. Many passengers are standing around the deck to watch the wind.

Most of these passengers are businessmen, and only the lucrative trade makes them determined enough to embark on this journey.

Qin Zhibo walked towards the back deck and soon spotted a passenger who looked like an ordinary human being.

This passenger looked to be about forty years old, with a medium build and dark skin. Although his appearance was not good-looking, his stern appearance seemed a bit unpredictable.

The reason why Qin Zhibo chose him was because although this man was staring expressionlessly in a certain direction at the stern of the ship, his eyes were twinkling.

This is the kind of look you get when remembering your loved ones.

For Qin Zhibo, as long as he has relatives in this world, he is basically a half-normal person, and he must be a native of Dreamland.

"Hello."

The man was interrupted by the sudden voice, frowned slightly, and turned to look at Qin Zhibo with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

This tone of voice was so defensive that Qin Zhibo felt a little suspicious. Could this person also be a novice?

But since I chose to strike up a conversation, I should get some information first.

With this idea in mind, Qin Zhibo introduced himself with a kind smile on his face.

"Hello, my name is Qin. Is this your first time on this ship?"

The man looked Qin Zhibo up and down warily, and only answered coldly after a few seconds.

"no."

"That's great!"

Qin Zhibo made a harmless and excited expression, "This is my first time boarding this ship, so I want to ask you some questions about this ship."

"Is it convenient for you to have a chat now, even if it's just to kill this boring watch time?"

The man's expression was still stern.

He took his hands off the fence, stared at Qin Zhibo with a pair of brown pupils, and then spoke after a moment.

"I remember you were not on the boat a few days ago..."

"So you're an outsider?"

Thank you for the reward from Time White!
