Stay away from Conan

Chapter 2 Choice

Gao Yuan walked into the study and picked up the photo frame.

In the photo, Kyousuke Mitarai and Shiho Miyano are both smiling and looking at the camera. However, they are not leaning against each other. They are just standing next to each other, about an arm's length apart. The background behind them is Like the school's teaching building, the plaque at the door has the words "Experimental Building" written in English. The shooting time is displayed in the lower right corner of the photo, which is the same as the time on Mitarai Kyousuke's graduation certificate.

Speaking of which, according to the timeline, Miyano Shiho returned to China exactly four years ago. So, the original person and Miyano Shiho were schoolmates?

No, that's not what you should be thinking about now. If the original person knew Miyano Shiho, then he might have encountered the worst situation now.

I was still thinking about the cause of death of the original person before, but now, if the original person knows Miyano Shiho, a new possibility appears - no cause of death can be found after death, no toxins can be found on the body, and no traces of murder are left. Perfect crime - APTX4869! The original person may have died from taking this drug!

In this way, why the original person was killed can also be explained. After all, knowing the members of the black organization itself is extremely dangerous! He might even be a member of the organization himself!

A person who might have been killed by the organization with drugs is still alive and well in this world. Gao Yuan felt chilled in his heart, and then rushed out of the room suddenly, constantly looking around, worried whether anyone was still watching here. ——No, if there were still people watching, they would have been discovered from the moment I woke up!

Soon, Gao Yuan stopped this meaningless behavior. If the above inferences are true, then the murderer may have left after confirming that the original person was dead. After all, this place looks a bit remote. The houses are not built next to each other, but more like a scattered village. , the murderer has enough time to wait for the original body to be poisoned and die.

Back in the study, Gao Yuan began to look carefully.

There are a wide variety of books on the bookshelf, covering various fields. After a cursory scan, there is nothing worth paying attention to.

Sitting in front of the desk, he was about to open the drawer of the desk and take a look, but in his sight, a rectangular mark on the tabletop of the desk caught Gao Yuan's attention. The original person should not wipe the desk often, there was a little dust on the tabletop, and this rectangular mark was a There was obviously no dust anywhere. Apparently something had been placed in this place before. Judging from the size, it looked like a laptop. There was also a network cable interface next to the desk, but there was no cable on the interface at the moment. It seemed that it had been taken away.

Opening the drawer, I finally found a wallet, which contained a stack of banknotes, several bank cards, and some of the original person's common documents. According to the information on the driver's license, the original person was exactly twenty years old now.

Without any more clues, Gao Yuan opened the door to another room.

As soon as he entered the door, Gao Yuan saw a shrine. There were two black and white photos on the shrine, which were of a middle-aged man and woman. Under the photos were placed the memorial tablets, which were written "Mitarashi Taro" and "Mitarashi Aya" respectively. The name, and the appearance in the photo, are somewhat similar to the original Mitarai Kyousuke. It seems that these are the original parents.

In other words, the original person is already an orphan.

Walking to the niche, Gao Yuan smelled the smell of lacquer. After looking carefully, he found that the spiritual tablet of "Mitarashi Taro" was newly made and the lacquer smell had not dissipated. It seemed that he had died not long ago. The spiritual tablet of "Mitarashi Aya" is obviously quite old.

There were very few furnishings in this room. Gao Yuan checked several times and found no other clues, so he returned to the study.

Sitting on the chair and looking at the photos on the desk, Gao Yuan fell into deep thought.

The original person knew Miyano Shiho, and was suspected of having contact with the black organization. The disappearance of the laptop is probably related to this. The cause of death was most likely caused by being force-fed APTX4869.

The beginning of hell!

Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh. He couldn't understand the matter of time travel, but now his situation was precarious. To be on the safe side, this identity could no longer be used.

But if you think about it this way, how to make Mitarai Kyousuke completely disappear from the world is a big problem. After all, facing the murderer who may be a black organization, you can't reveal any flaws!

At this moment, a transparent window appeared in front of Gao Yuan's eyes.

"The reasoning is over, let's start closing the case."

"Comprehensive evaluation of case closure: S"

"Logic: S"

"Knowledge: S"

"Observation: A"

"Settlement is completed, the overall score reaches S, additional rewards will be issued, please select:"

"Reward 1: Hidden clues in this case"

"Reward 2: Self-defense"

"Reward 3: Special props"

Looking at this floating window, Gao Yuan didn't know how to react for a moment. He was very familiar with these text descriptions. It was the settlement screen of the mobile game "Bounty Detective" he played before going to bed!

As one of the top ten players in the region, Gao Yuan has a regular practice of getting points in the game before going to bed every day. In this game, you can get bounties by immersing yourself in different cases and using your brain power to solve the cases and chase the murderers. The higher the total bounty, the higher the player's ranking in the game. If the final evaluation level of each case reaches S level, you can also obtain additional small props. These props can be used in different cases to facilitate solving the case.

Now the settlement screen of this game actually appeared in front of me after I summarized the current situation! Could it be that my time travel is related to this game?

He went to the bedroom on the first floor again, took out the mirror, and saw that the floating picture that had been directly in front of his sight was not reflected in the mirror. Gao Yuan understood that this was a picture that only he could see!

The tense nerves began to relax, and I was not helpless!

But if this is the case, does it mean that my reasoning is correct? The death of the original body is really related to the black organization!

Now look at these three rewards. This choice is extremely important. Whether you can break the game depends on this!

Needless to say, the second reward is that if you are facing those black organizations, no matter how powerful your self-defense skills are, they are no match for guns and artillery. Although reward three is very interesting, even in the game, special props only allow players to grasp the clues of the case faster.

On the contrary, it was this reward one. Combined with the fact that there were only A-level observation items in the evaluation system, Gao Yuan knew that he must have missed a very important clue.

After weighing it, Gao Yuan finally chose "Reward One", and then new text appeared on the interface.

"You noticed that Mitarashi Taro's spiritual tablet was newly made, and you understood that Mitarashi Taro passed away not long ago, but you did not find the relevant materials for cremation at home. In the open space behind the house, you found a piece of stone under the lawn. The earth has been turned over."

Reading this text, Gao Yuan couldn't calm down for a long time. For the first time since time travel, he felt excited, and the corners of his mouth began to rise uncontrollably! There is really no end to the road - Gao Yuan shouted in his heart and made a choice.

In the early morning, the natural gas pipeline in the kitchen made a "beep" sound, the TV in the office was on but showed a snowflake screen, and the candle in front of the shrine was slowly burning--suddenly, a loud noise resounded through this remote countryside. In Nomura Village, Mitarai's two-story building was instantly engulfed in flames. Since the houses here are not directly adjacent to each other, the fire did not affect the surrounding homes.

The next day, when someone discovered Mitarai's house in a remote village in the Shikoku region, it had been burned down to nothing. After the police arrived, they found a man's body that had been burned to charcoal in the rubble. Since all Mitarashi's elders had passed away long ago, the local police did not conduct a more in-depth investigation. The man's body was determined to still be living in this house. The only son of the Mitarai family - Kyosuke Mitarai!
