The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Qin Zhibo had no intention of explaining to Officer Memu the mysterious crypt he discovered in the cemetery behind the villa, nor did he tell him that Takahashi Ryoichi was probably in danger.

The existence of kobolds is equally impossible to mention.

After all, these things are beyond the common sense and understanding of normal people.

But Qin Zhibo didn't want to be sent to a mental hospital after being ridiculed, and the social credit he had worked so hard to build would be wiped out.

Standing at the door of the Metropolitan Police Department, Qin Zhibo yawned widely and stretched his waist.

Qin Zhibo has barely slept since last night. Now it's time to go back to the office to catch up on his sleep.

When he returned to the office, Qin Zhibo was about to take out his key and open the door when he saw a letter in the mailbox next to his office door.

Qin Zhibo didn't pay attention at first, thinking it was just an electricity bill or something like that.

But after washing up, Qin Zhibo, who was sitting on the boss's chair, picked up the letter and realized that something was unusual.

First of all, there is no stamp on this letter, which means it was not delivered by a postman.

In the informal delivery method, there is naturally no sender information on it, it is just a blank envelope.

Opening the envelope, there was only a piece of ordinary printing paper inside. On the printing paper was a line of words printed by a printer.

【turn on computer】

The meaning of this line of text could not be more obvious, it is to guide Qin Zhibo to open his computer.

Qin Zhibo then remembered that except for using the computer to look up information about the supernatural events in the Medieval Art Museum that day, he had never used a computer since then.

After all, computers in this era do not have so many entertainment properties, and Qin Zhibo does not need this personal computer in his daily work.

At this time, an unknown person suddenly sent a letter and asked him to open the computer.

Could it be

Qin Zhibo did not turn on the computer immediately, but got dressed and went downstairs.

Downstairs of the "Zhibo Detective Agency" is a store selling women's clothing.

In the past, out of harmony with neighbors, Qin Zhibo went downstairs to buy a piece of women's clothing and got to know the owner of the women's clothing store.

The owner of the women's clothing store still felt strange about Qin Zhibo's sudden friendly behavior.

Because since the two became neighbors in a commercial store, the detective agency upstairs and the women's clothing store downstairs have always been doing their own things, and they have never even said hello to each other.

But this time, the friendly behavior Qin Zhibo showed to the women's clothing store owner came in handy.

"Ms. Hanako, did anyone visit my office yesterday while I was away?"

The owner of the women's clothing store is a 26-year-old young woman with a neat ponytail. Qin Zhibo also investigated her appearance score, which is 60 points, which is above average.

"Hmm - let me think about it."

I don’t know if it was luck or social skills (eloquence) that came into play again, but Hanako really thought of some information.

"Yesterday afternoon, I remembered that a beautiful lady came to the second floor. At that time, I thought she was a customer coming to the women's clothing store, so I paid more attention."

"She has smooth, long, straight chestnut hair and looks like an urban white-collar worker."

"In terms of age, he should be younger than me."

Before Qin Zhibo could ask further questions, Hanako told her everything about the woman's dress.

But Qin Zhibo looked through his memory bank and couldn't figure out who this so-called beautiful woman was.

Is it Mao Lilan?

But Mao Lilan should be wearing a student uniform, right? And Mao Lilan's hair is black.

But other than that, Qin Zhibo no longer knows any woman who can be described as "beautiful".

Could it be someone the original owner knew before?

Back at the office, Qin Zhibo ignored the woman's affairs for the time being and turned on his personal computer.

The computer desktop lit up. Qin Zhibo carefully checked the few applications on the computer desktop and quickly found the ones worth paying attention to.

【Mail】

Click to open.

【Inbox(1)】

There is an unread email inside, please continue to click on it.

[Mr. Qin, please reply to us on the website within 48 hours! 】

The content of the email was just a short sentence, without a signature, but the sender's name was very strange, called "Novem Angelus".

Thanks to the original owner's extremely shallow knowledge of Latin, Qin Zhibo recognized that it was a string of Latin words, meaning "Nine Angels".

And since this person called "Nine Angels" asked for a reply on the website, does that mean they have their own website?

Qin Zhibo immediately opened the web search and entered "Novem Angelus" as a keyword, and a URL he had searched for automatically popped up.

Tap the Enter key to automatically jump to the web page represented by the URL.

First of all, this is a pure English web page.

Second, the entire page points to an organization called "Novem Angelus," or the Nine Angels.

On the web page, there was an introduction to the organization "Nine Angels", and Qin Zhibo read it carefully.

The Nine Angels organization is a semi-public organization. The organization's motto is "We only seek the truth and do not pay attention to honor."

The Nine Angels organization believes that there are some "terrible truths" in this world. Once these "terrible truths" are leaked, it will have a very bad impact on the people.

So the Nine Angels organization will use its own money and secret influence to hire agents to complete some tasks.

These tasks include, but are not limited to, acquiring ancient book artifacts, investigating people or organizations, raising funds for expeditions, etc.

No matter where you are in the world or what profession you are engaged in, you can apply to become an agent of the Nine Angels organization.

After becoming an agent, you will receive tasks from the organization from time to time.

As long as the task is completed, a certain amount of money will be provided as a reward.

After reading through these contents, Qin Zhibo roughly understood this Nine Angels organization.

The nature of the Nine Angels organization is similar to the bounty hunter guild commonly seen in adventure novels, except that this organization seems to issue various tasks for a certain purpose.

In this organization, bounty hunters are called "agents," and the organization sends "agents" to complete some delicate tasks.

The original owner of his body is an agent in the Nine Angels organization.

After Qin Zhibo roughly understood his identity, he quickly sent a message to the administrator of the web page.

Qin Zhibo: [I am Qin, sorry for the late reply]

Qin Zhibo did not say that he was Qin Zhibo, because the real name of the original owner of the body was Vince Qin, and Qin Zhibo did not know which name the original owner of the body used to register as the agent of this organization.

After about ten seconds, the other party responded to the message.

The other party: [Mr. Qin, have you completed the task you took on last week? If completed, please deliver it in time and we will pay you]

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to wonder what mission the other party was talking about, the other party actually sent Qin Zhibo a task information sheet directly.

Qin Zhibo clicked on it and found a task to acquire books.

[Task content: Acquire the book "Corpse Eating Ceremony" held by Souha Tsunoku, the highest bid is 200,000 yen]

[Task reward: 100,000 yen]

Thanks to Zaishui for the reward!
