Conan: When I Be Gin's Brother

After arranging his gloves and having regained his composure, Kurosawa Rin suddenly realized a serious problem.

He has already activated his precognition ability and time retrieval ability.

Based on his last experience, the limit of what his body can withstand should be one precognition and two time regressions.

At this moment when the source of magic power has not been found and he is unable to restore magic power on his own, he will face the situation where he was on the verge of death last time only by activating the time retrieval ability.

Although now, with the help of the magic tool Koizumi Hongzi gave him - the Hand of Severance, he can avoid the time-travel ability from activating on its own.

But the precognition ability will not be restricted because the magic power of his hands is cut off. Kurosawa Rin had already realized this the night before the museum incident.

His life will still be taken away by his precognitive ability that may be activated at any time.

Last time I was lucky enough to be saved by Koizumi Anko, but there is no guarantee that every time I encounter a magic backlash, there will be a Koizumi Anko to save me.

Picking up the night banquet again, Kurosawa Rin wiped off his own blood and put it away. He picked up the camera that had been recording before and rewind the video to when he took off his gloves.

In the picture, he took off his gloves and hesitantly stretched his fingers towards the blade.

The moment his finger touched the blade, he was shocked in the picture, his finger was scratched by the blade, and he closed his eyes in pain and stayed in place for about 15 seconds.

After 15 seconds, he opened his eyes again and everything returned to normal.

The entire process of activating time retrieval was extremely fast, and Kurosawa Rin could not find anything unusual in it.

He rewatched this clip several times, and finally found something fishy.

"This is?"

The speed is still a bit too fast.

After unplugging the camera's memory card, Kurosawa Rin opened the computer nearby and transferred the video to the computer.

After slowing down at ten times the speed, Kurosawa Rin finally caught the anomaly.

The moment his fingers touched Ye Banquet, he discovered that his originally dark green eyes gradually turned silvery white.

Before his eyes were completely closed, the silvery white gradually became brighter, as if it was emitting silver light. The faint silver light happened to be captured by the camera, and only then did Kurosawa Rin see the flash of light that just made him feel weird.

.

In disbelief, he played the 1-second clip played at 10x speed several times.

After confirming the authenticity, Kurosawa Rin came to his senses.

Eyes are the source of my magic?

Own……

It seems that I found the source of magic through cheating??

Kurosawa Rin's originally dazed expression suddenly turned into one of surprise.

He quickly took out the "Introduction to Magic" that Koizumi Anko had given him before, and turned to the page on how to find the source of magic.

"Meditation, calming the mind, returning consciousness from the outer world to the inner world, feeling the extension of spiritual power, discovering the flow of magic power inside the body, following this through the whole body and finally returning to the source of magic..."

"Meditation..., calmness..."

Kurosawa Rin tried his best to keep himself in a calm state according to the instructions in the book, but when he closed his eyes, he could still only feel the movements of the outside world, but could not let his consciousness penetrate deep into the internal world of his body.

After sitting quietly for a while, Kurosawa Rin opened his eyes with some worry and rubbed his blond hair.

"It still doesn't work..."

If the method of finding the source of magic power is divided into several steps, then Kurosawa Rin has only completed the first step of calming his mind and the final goal of finding the location of the source of magic power.

But he didn't complete the most critical steps. Just letting his consciousness go deep into his inner world in the second step stuck for many days.

Until now I have no idea.

He looked at the few lines of "Introduction to Magic" in his hand with some irritability, and kept muttering like a demon:

"Inner world, inner world..."

"It's so vague, how can I feel the so-called inner world!"

The faces on both sides were bulging with anger, and each of the characters in front of them could be clearly understood, but when put together, they were like a curse, making it difficult for people to figure out and understand.

While I was secretly distressed, the phone rang downstairs.

Ring ring ring!

Ring ring ring!

"Um?"

Looking at the clock on the wall, Kurosawa Rin was slightly surprised.

"I don't think I told anyone the landline number here?"

"Is it Gin again?"

Well……

After being silent for a while, suppressing the smile that was about to burst out because he remembered someone's dark history, Kurosawa Rin stood up, walked downstairs to the living room, and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Ah! It's Kurosawa-san!"

Listening to the familiar voice on the phone, Kurosawa Rin was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses, with an inexplicable smile on his face, but his tone was extremely surprised:

"Kudo-senpai!!"

"Where have you been for so long?"

"Do you know that Senior Maori and we are worried about you every day!"

Conan was holding a voice changer in one hand and a microphone in the other. He was stunned when he heard Kurosawa Rin's angry voice, and quickly laughed apologetically.

"Well, I'm sorry! I was busy with the case and forgot to tell you."

Kurosawa Rin's voice was still indignant, "Do you think I can simply forgive you by apologizing like this!"

"Every day at lunch, Maori-senpai would tell me with a very sad look that you left her alone in the amusement park that day, and that we lost contact after that..."

Conan seemed to have keenly discovered something not good from what Kurosawa Rin had just said, and suddenly interrupted, "Wait a minute!"

"Um?"

"You and Xiaolan are together every noon?"

"Um."

Conan's face darkened, "She always tells you such things?"

"Yeah!" Kurosawa Rin confirmed with a smile.

After a period of silence, the other side of the phone chuckled as if to comfort himself, "But if Xiaolan's mood changes so much, then Uncle Maori and Conan, who lives in her house, should find something abnormal about her.

…”

Before Conan could finish speaking, a vague sigh came from the other end of the phone, "Alas..."

On the other end of the phone, Kurosawa Rin’s voice was filled with melancholy:

"Kudo-senpai, you still don't understand Sister Xiaolan."

"She was afraid that her family would be worried, so she could only confide in Sister Yuanzi and me at school, and calm down her emotions when she got home."

"Is that so..." Conan felt a little guilty. Xiaolan was indeed such a gentle girl who didn't want her family to worry, but endured everything on her own.

"Um."

Kurosawa Rin responded, feeling that the blow was almost over before he remembered to ask about the business.

"By the way, Kudo-senpai, why did you call me?"

Conan on the other side was stunned and remembered the main purpose of calling Kurosawa Rin.

"Ah, actually it's like this..."

He put the phone between his ear and shoulder, took out a letter from his pocket with his free hand, and said to Kurosawa Rin while browsing the letter.

"Actually, I received a commission letter, and I'm a little concerned about it. But because I'm busy with other things recently, I have to ask you to investigate on my behalf."

"The commission information is..."

Conan was looking for the client's information in the commission letter, while Kurosawa Rin across from him was a little helpless.

He's not a detective, so why don't you go to Uncle Maori instead of him for this kind of thing...

Just as he was about to refuse, he heard Kudo's voice on the other side.

"...Aso Keiji from Moon Shadow Island."

Moon Shadow Island!!

The voice of rejection stopped abruptly.

Kurosawa Rin suddenly remembered this case and the cross-dressing boss whose authenticity was difficult to distinguish.

Before Conan could finish asking, Kurosawa Rin immediately agreed.

"So can you..."

"OK!"

Opposite Conan also had a genuine expression, "Sure enough, a detective like you will not let any incident go by!"

"I didn't have any good candidates for a while. It was a bit unreliable to leave it to Uncle Maori, so I thought of you!"

"Sure enough, you won't let me down. I'll leave the rest to you."

"Tomorrow I will ask someone to deliver the letter of authorization and the ferry ticket to your home!"

"Then I'll hang up now if I have anything else to do!"

"goodbye!"

Kurosawa Rin didn't react for a moment when he heard Kudo's machine gun-like voice, and then he quickly retorted after coming back to his senses.

"Ah, Kudo-senpai, although I will go..."

Snapped!

Beep...beep...

"...But actually I'm not a detective."

The phone call has long been hung up.

The living room fell into an eerie silence for no apparent reason.

"well……"

Listening to the busy tone coming from the phone, Kurosawa Rin put down the phone and sighed.

"so!"

"I told you I'm really not a detective anymore!!"
