The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Qin Zhibo walked to the ebony box that exuded the light of the investigation point, pointed at the box and asked, "What is in this box? Can it be opened?"

Mamiya Mitsuru was startled for a moment and nodded: "It's okay, but there are no treasures in it. They are all manuscripts left by my father-in-law and Mr. Sadaki."

"I also searched this room. There shouldn't be any treasure hidden in it."

Mamiya Mitsuru's tone was uncertain, because he didn't dare to search the study carefully.

Although he is now the superficial talker in the castle, his father-in-law's wife, the old lady, is still alive, and she is currently the most senior head of the Mamiya family.

The old lady didn't have a good impression of his second son-in-law, and the last time she wanted to search the castle, she stopped her sternly and angrily accused herself of being a "gangster who wanted to rob the treasure."

So from then on, Mamiya Mitsuru could only carefully search for the treasures in the castle, so as not to anger his old mother-in-law who was sometimes sober and sometimes confused.

"Let's do this, Mr. Mamiya." Qin Zhibo suggested: "I will search here first, and you can take advantage of this time to draw up an entrustment contract."

"Oh, that's fine too."

In this way, Qin Zhibo put Mamiya Manto on the desk aside, while he opened the box and took out the manuscript inside.

There are many manuscripts, but two manuscripts are the thickest in content and attracted Qin Zhibo's attention.

The first manuscript is titled "According to the Antarctic Expedition of 1930 - A Detailed Account of the Mountains of Madness"

The second manuscript is titled "The collective outbreak of inexplicable madness among domestic and foreign artists in 1980 - a research report on related dreams and fantasies"

Both manuscripts had investigation points floating on them, attracting Qin Zhibo to conduct in-depth investigation.

Qin Zhibo first began to investigate the first investigative report that was very old.

The form of investigation is book-based investigation, which saves Qin Zhibo from reading the entire manuscript word for word.

【Read√】

The moment the reading started, Qin Zhibo immediately entered a wonderful mode.

In front of him, countless stars were sliding around his field of vision like silver light. Qin Zhibo felt that his body's cognition seemed to have fallen into an unprecedented state of nothingness.

When Qin Zhibo's mind fell back to the ground, he found that he had "traveled" into the body of the person involved in the manuscript.

This method is somewhat like "seizing the body".

But what is different from "Seizing the Body" is that Qin Zhibo cannot control the body he occupies, but feels everything from the perspective of the person involved, and can understand the inner thoughts of the person involved.

The person involved was Mr. Mamiya who wrote this manuscript.

In 1930, Master Mamiya was still 26 years old and studying abroad.

The university where he studied was Miskatonic University in the United States, majoring in mechanics.

Qin Zhibo: Oh! my alma mater!

In August of that year, the Miskatonic University newspaper and the Arkham Advertiser simultaneously published information about the Miskatonic Expedition recruiting members for the Antarctic expedition.

[Since Norwegian Roald Amundsen became the first human to set foot on Antarctica in 1911, conquering Antarctica has become one of the goals for various countries to compete with each other]

[As a descendant of Amaterasu, I think I have an obligation to fight for this honor for the country]

So driven by a sense of mission, Mr. Mamiya submitted his resume to the expedition team and was incredibly successful in being selected.

[I thought this adventure would change my life, but I never thought it would be in this way]

The goal of the Miskatonic expedition is to collect fossils as widely as possible and to drill to obtain soil samples under the Antarctic ice sheet.

The expedition was led by four professors: geology professor William Dale, biology professor Lake, engineering professor Frank H. Pabodie, and physics professor Atwood.

There are also sixteen assistants.

[Among the sixteen assistants, seven are graduate students at the university, and I am one of them, and the rest are experienced mechanics]

Next, Qin Zhibo experienced the scenery along the way from Boston to Antarctica on two wooden ships from the perspective of Mr. Mamiya.

Dolphins, seagulls, penguins, seals, to name a few

[With the help of two local captains and the "Arkham" and "Miskatonic", we landed on Ross Island on the Antarctic continent on November 9th]

[I was so excited that day that I even made some small mistakes and was criticized by Professor Dell because I became the first Japanese to set foot on the Antarctic frozen soil! 】

[On November 21st, we organized the aircraft formation, continued to advance southward, and established a new southern base at 86.7° south latitude and 174° east longitude]

[On December 15, Professor Paboti led two graduate students to successfully climb Nansen Peak. Unfortunately, as a stay-at-home employee at the base, I was not able to enjoy such an honor.]

[On January 6 of the following year, four professors led a team to continue flying south. I was not selected to be the unlucky one who stayed at the southern base, but now it seems that it was a lucky selection. 】

[After flying five hundred miles, we re-established a secondary camp and carried out corresponding geological exploration. Unfortunately, I was not good at this at that time]

[After the exploration work was completed, Professor Lake insisted that the fossil samples collected had a long history of at least 5 to 1 billion years, and even had a fierce quarrel with Professor Dale]

[In the end, Professor Lake decided to lead the expedition team to further explore the unknown world, and that was the beginning of the nightmare. 】

[Thankfully, I was not selected into this expedition team, which is why I can still write down all this as a free man]

[On January 22, Professor Lake led the expedition team to continue flying south. Within two hours, we received the first telegram message from them, saying that they were drilling three hundred miles away from us. 】

[Nine hours later, Professor Lake's expedition team ended its exploration and took off again in the biting cold wind. Professor Dell firmly opposed Professor Lake's risky behavior]

[An hour and a half later, Professor Lake’s team received another briefing]

[10:05.PM, after the snowstorm, it was observed that the highest mountain range ever seen appeared in front of us. Visual inspection may even be equivalent to the highest mountain range known to mankind - the Himalayas]

[This is really a crazy huge discovery! 】
