Chapter 63 Oh no, the system has gone bad!!
[Good news! Detective Akutagawa has evolved once again! It is reported that in this murder case, the killer went to great lengths to conceal the body, but unfortunately encountered Mr. Akutagawa, who saw through everything before the plan even began—]
The rest of the text is full of flattery and praise for Akutagawa Hikaru, calling him the most dazzling star to emerge in the detective world, the hope of the Metropolitan Police Department, and a good helper to the citizens.
In short, it's as outrageous as it gets.
Akutagawa Hiko actually felt a little guilty inside.
Although with my current abilities and the tricks and schemes of the suspects in the Detective Conan world, solving the case isn't too difficult.
In reality, Akutagawa Hiko's ability to solve cases mainly relied on his God-like perspective brought about by his past life memories—the "prophetic" ability to know the plot and ending just by looking at the beginning—rather than any clever mind.
So, Akutagawa decided to treat everyone equally and waved for the next reporter.
The four children standing nearby looked at Akutagawa Hiko, who stood proudly among the reporters and spoke eloquently, their faces full of envy, though for different reasons.
Conan felt envious of the adults' bodies that allowed them to act freely, because he was thinking about the antidote which seemed to be out of reach for a long time.
The other three are people who greatly admire and yearn for the money, fame, and satisfaction that come with becoming a true detective.
Ayumi Yoshida clasped her hands together in front of her chest, already imagining herself being adored by everyone in the future: "This is what a famous detective is like, so popular!"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya nodded repeatedly: "Only by becoming a great detective like Akutagawa-nii can I help Interpol and be praised by them!"
Genta Kojima didn't have such lofty ambitions; he was much more realistic than his two friends: "A famous detective like that could make a lot of money, right? Wouldn't he have an endless supply of eel rice?!"
Conan looked at his classmate, who was lost in his fantasy, and his lips twitched slightly. Becoming a famous detective was not that easy. Apart from Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, who still had a chance, the other two were out of the question.
It's not that I'm discriminating against the other two, but their basic qualifications are not quite up to par; a wealth of knowledge and a sharp mind are both indispensable.
"Let's not think about it anymore. We're still looking for the cat. Akutagawa-nii has already solved a lot of murder cases."
Conan, having been given a cold shower, was met with angry glares from his friends.
"Conan, how could you say that!"
"That's right. Even Akutagawa-nii-san takes on cat-finding requests, right? Maybe that's a unique technique used by famous detectives to hone their detective skills!"
"Maybe even that famous detective Shinichi will take on a cat-finding request!"
Edogawa Shinichi Conan, the former famous detective, was internally screaming, "How come I didn't know there was such a training method?"
Moreover, the cats and dogs there were clearly brought back by Xiaolongbao and Tangbing; Akutagawa had never even left the house, let alone exercised his brain.
I can't even train my physical strength!
Also, how come he didn't know that besides today he had also taken on a job to find a lost cat?
Moreover, the two of them are completely different. Akutagawa Hiko is the one who opened the detective agency, so it's natural that he would receive such requests.
Although Shinichi Kudo is a famous detective, he is actually an amateur. He solves cases mostly by chance, and being specially invited is a rare occurrence, so it cannot be generalized.
Besides, you guys never intended to take on these "small commissions" in the first place, right? It was all for the Kamen Rider cards.
Conan internally ranted, but didn't say it aloud. It's often difficult to reason with a child.
"Alright, alright, let's hurry up and take Hikaru to find Hiroki. We have to finish what we started, otherwise we won't get the Kamen Rider card." With Conan's reminder, the group remembered the real purpose of their mission and immediately forgot about criticizing Conan.
But "Where's the cat?!"
After discovering the body, how could a single-minded person possibly notice where the cat had gone, especially since it was a lost cat? It was impossible for it to stay in the same spot and wait for them.
Fortunately, the cat hadn't run too far. The group eventually found Xiao Guang in another family's yard, frantically cleaning the blood off its fur.
As for their concern that Akutagawa Hiko might steal their reward, that didn't happen. Although Akutagawa Hiko also liked collecting cards, he wasn't really interested in things like Kamen Rider.
In addition, the system, which hadn't been active for a long time, suddenly popped up on its own initiative, so there was no time to care about them.
Back in the basement, at the head of a long table, Akutagawa Hiko rested his face on his hands, a pair of glasses, which he had somehow found, perched on his nose.
The husky yawned, and Tachibana stretched, instantly breaking Akutagawa Hikaru's serious demeanor.
"You guys... never mind, meeting adjourned!"
The cat and dog immediately started frolicking, and with that background music playing, Akutagawa Hiko checked the updated system.
First, Akutagawa Hiko checked his reputation points balance and breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that the value had increased instead of decreased. It seemed that even with the system update, reputation points had not stopped being added.
Then, Akutagawa Hiko hurriedly opened the reputation shop. His reputation points hadn't changed, but the prices of items had gone up, which wouldn't do either, otherwise he would have been deducting a huge amount of reputation points in disguise.
Fortunately, what Akutagawa Hiko feared did not happen.
On the contrary, the store's appearance has become more gorgeous, making people more eager to buy, and it also has a search function, so you don't have to flip through the listings one by one to find the product you want.
However, this kind of thing is often only used when you urgently need it. Shopping malls are fun, aren't they?
The mission section has also been updated. Apart from the more stylish design, which has a killer guild vibe, Akutagawa Hiko doesn't see any other differences yet.
The arena has undergone some changes. First, there's the issue of space. As his chakra increased and his strength grew, Akutagawa Hiko gradually mastered many wide-range ninjutsu techniques, making the original space somewhat cramped.
Even now, with the wooden dummy encased in Susanoo, there's still plenty of room to move around.
Of course, Akutagawa Hiko hasn't reached the level of a Kage yet, and is far from that level, but imagining it isn't illegal.
When Akutagawa Hiko opened the last section of the system—the one added in this update—he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Oh no, system, you've gone bad!!"
system:-
Silence, silence is Cambridge tonight.
Akutagawa Hiko didn't care; he was more concerned about the new module in the system—the lottery.
That's right, it's a lottery, a special purchasing model that many unlucky people both love and hate. Blind boxes, spinning wheels, card draws, etc., are all essentially lotteries.
Akutagawa Hiko had a variety of modes to choose from, such as praying, drawing talismans, searching, and opening packs, which left him speechless for a moment.
