The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Mr.Clock?

Mr. Clock?

Qin Zhibo saw that Mi-Go's naming method was very casual, and it was named whatever it saw at first sight.

I'm so lucky that what I saw was not a lump.

"Mr. Clock, if I find that fragment for you, what reward will you give me?"

Mr. Clock replied without hesitation: "I can give you eternal life."

"Eternal life?" Qin Zhibo glanced at the direction of the cupboard, smiled and shook his head, "I'd better avoid that kind of eternal life, I can't bear it."

Mr. Clock asked expressionlessly: "Then do you need anything?"

Qin Zhibo thought about what he needed. There was no doubt that what most people in the world needed was money.

But facing an alien race full of unknowns like Mr. Clock, it would be too superficial to just ask for money.

There are many ways to make money, but Mr. Clock exists beyond the earth, and his abilities are almost completely unknown.

For this kind of existence, the way to maximize interests is not to make a choice on the spur of the moment, but to hold a wait-and-see attitude first and let him appear when he is needed in the future.

"If I help you find that fragment, you owe me a favor."

Mr. Clock was silent for two seconds and asked: "Human affection is the kind of favor between people, right?"

"You think I'm human?"

It is obvious that Mr. Clock knows the meaning of human feelings, but he has objections to Qin Zhibo's definition of himself as a human being.

"Of course you are not human," Qin Zhibo explained, "but you are an alien."

"I'm not a human, I'm an alien."

Mr. Clock was silent for another two seconds, "That's it, I owe you a favor."

In this way, the deal between Qin Zhibo and Mr. Clock was concluded.

Judging from the transaction between Mr. Clock and Mon Tokiro, the contract spirit of this alien Mr. Clock is quite good, and it has indeed allowed Mon Tokiro to achieve what Mi-Go considers to be "immortality."

It's just that Qin Zhibo didn't know how Mr. Clock took out the human brain from its original body and still maintained its activity.

Maybe this is alien black technology.

Qin Zhibo returned to his car first, put the sprayer back into the suitcase in the car, and then held it in his hand.

Otherwise, when facing Mi-Go, Qin Zhibo would always have an inexplicable urge to activate the sprayer and throw it at Mr. Clock's face.

Back at the mansion, Qin Zhibo began to reason.

"Monshiro knows that you know a lot about human society. When you can't find that thing yourself, he should also be able to guess that you will ask a detective."

"So he deliberately set up a puzzle to mislead the detective, leading the answer to the watch in the pigeon clock instead of what you actually needed."

"Perhaps the thing you are looking for is hidden in a very obvious place, but invisible to your alien mind."

Qin Zhibo looked around the interior furnishings of the villa, and his brain tried hard to recall the ways in which the Mi-Go alien race was different from humans.

Higher intelligence, crustacean forms, fungal organisms.

Qin Zhibo recalled his last experience in the foggy dog ​​incident, and suddenly thought of a very big difference.

Humans don't have wings, but Mi-Go has wings!

If you have wings

Qin Zhibo suddenly turned around and asked, "Mr. Clock, can you drive?"

Mr. Clock was too lazy to open his mouth: "No, I have wings, so I don't need to learn how to drive."

"That's right!" Qin Zhibo's tone suddenly rose, "There should be a car near this villa, right?"

Mr. Clock: "There is indeed an abandoned car by a nearby lake."

Under the leadership of Mr. Clock, Qin Zhibo came to the lake less than 200 meters away from the villa.

The bright moonlight shone on the lake, emitting sparkling waves, which made Qin Zhibo feel vaguely familiar with the scene.

Looking into the distance and opening the telescope, Qin Zhibo saw a spire-like dome in the forest across the lake.

Blue Castle!

The Mamiya family's blue castle stands on the other side of the lake. No wonder the lake feels inexplicably familiar at night.

Mr. Clock pointed to the open space on the shore of the lake and said, "There used to be an abandoned car parked here, but I pushed it into the lake."

Qin Zhibo was a little confused, "Why do you do this?"

Mr. Clock answered concisely and clearly in two words, "An eyesore."

"Then there's nothing we can do." Qin Zhibo spread his palms to express his helplessness, "The thing you are looking for is probably hidden in that abandoned car. If"

Before Qin Zhibo finished speaking, Mr. Clock walked straight into the lake.

After waiting for five minutes, the calm lake surface suddenly rippled. First, Mr. Clock's body emerged from the water, and then the abandoned car.

Mr. Clock grabbed the front bumper of the car with one hand and pulled the car out of the lake!

Qin Zhibo didn't expect that Mr. Clock's power was so powerful. This power was almost the same as Superman!

The abandoned car was pulled back to the shore of the lake. Mr. Clock swung his body like a dog. A layer of green fluorescent mesh was suddenly activated. All the water on his body was shaken off, and Mr. Clock's body returned to dryness. status.

"Where is that thing?"

Qin Zhibo looked at Mr. Clock and felt more vigilant.

Although the spray can cause fatal damage to Mi-Go, if it is a head-on confrontation at close range, Mi-Go's racial advantage is far stronger than that of humans.

Qin Zhibo temporarily put down the suitcase in his hand, raised his hand to take out the crowbar, the holy sword of physics in the system, and began to pry the rusty car trunk.

In front of Mr. Clock, Qin Zhibo showed off his ability to conjure system props out of thin air without hesitation.

After all, for me, Mr. Clock is a mysterious thing, and for Mr. Clock, it is good for him to have some mysterious attributes.

At least it can act as some deterrent.

Seeing Qin Zhibo conjuring a crowbar out of thin air, Mr. Clock's head really shook and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Qin Zhibo aimed the crowbar at the gap in the trunk lid, inserted it, and then pried it down hard, and the lid automatically popped open.

In the trunk, a black wooden box that had been soaked in water and was slightly deformed was placed quietly in it.

“Hope what you’re about to find is waterproof.”

Mr. Clock quickly stepped forward, held the black wooden box in his arms, and roughly opened the lid with his other hand.

Under the lid, a black diamond-shaped piece of basalt-like material lay quietly at the bottom of the box.

The edges of this rhombus-shaped fragment are very regular, and it seems that high-tech cutting and polishing can produce such a beautiful shape.

And in the center of the fragment, there is a substance emitting dark green fluorescence embedded in it.

Mr. Clock held the fragment in his hand, looked at it for less than three seconds, then quickly opened his mouth and swallowed the fragment whole.

But even though Mr. Clock acted quickly, Qin Zhibo still completed the investigation.
