Jiang Chengbei slapped him on the head, and he lost his superpowers and could no longer train. Even if he continued to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to the moon, he could not feel the surging chakra energy at all. Conan was really terrified!
So, Conan, who had always thought he was about to become an omnipotent superhuman, a superpowered person, had all of that vanished in an instant with a single blow. He was utterly desperate!
Just a moment ago, I thought I was a superman, and everyone in the world was an ant waiting for me to save. But in the blink of an eye, I became an ant under someone else's control.
This was all so ridiculous that Conan was filled with despair about his future.
He couldn't understand why his brother, with whom he didn't have a good relationship, would be so kind as to teach him how to cultivate chakra so easily.
Now he understands. The switch is in their hands. If they want, whether it's their own brother or his brother's partner, they can easily slap him on the head and confiscate the chakra he's painstakingly cultivated over several sleepless nights.
This is so unfair! Conan felt extremely wronged.
Conan felt wronged, and Jiang Chengbei felt wronged too.
It was clearly a benefit given to me by the system, but Conan took half of it, and Takagi Wataru might take some more in the future. I can't even get a commission. This deal is too unfair.
Furthermore, in order to seal Conan's chakra, Jiang Chengbei also temporarily sealed his own very useful Conan-style chakra. When he wants to use it and opens the seal, Conan's chakra will also be released at the same time. Conan is really getting a good deal.
Most importantly, in order to shut Conan up and make him quiet for a while, Jiang Chengbei spent 1 kill coin to buy the "Seal Words Come True" skill. It was all money, and he just wasted it like that.
After working hard all night, Yuzuka, this good brother, threw so many grenades and fired so many bullets, but he only earned 1 kill coin, which was less than what the two new underlings he had persuaded to do.
Anzai Morio and Nachi Shingo, these two guys, since they fired the shot, have each contributed 2 kill coins to Jiang Chengbei, as well as one acting skill and one photography skill.
I earned 5 kill coins tonight, and spent 1 kill coin to buy the "Seal Words Follow Law" skill. Jiang Chengbei now has 27 kill coins left.
After temporarily sealing away the power of words to make them law, depriving Conan of his chakra, he finally distinguished between the two kings and went to sleep peacefully, no longer howling on the rooftop.
Seeing that Jiang Chengbei had subdued Conan with just a pat on the head, making him obedient, Inspector Megure was filled with envy and said with a hint of jealousy:
“Brother Jiangcheng, you really have a way with things. It seems that I made the right choice to let Conan stay here. Only you in this world can subdue this lawless, fearless, and unrespecting Conan.”
Seeing the envious look in Inspector Megure's eyes, Jiang Chengbei smiled sheepishly and didn't say anything more.
Nothing was said that night, and no cases were reported.
When Jiang Chengbei woke up, the sun was already high in the sky; he had been busy all night and had gone to bed too late.
Upon waking up, Jiang Chengbei discovered that the phone in the system's inventory, which existed under the name of Shinichi Kudo, had received numerous emails from people looking for Professor Agasa's phone number.
Upon opening these emails, Jiang Chengbei frowned.
I've exchanged quite a few emails with Professor Agasa under the name of Shinichi Kudo, but the emails I'm receiving now feel a bit strange.
All these emails boil down to three things:
First, they cursed Kudo Yusaku, the cheating scumbag. As a neighbor and a virtuous old virgin, even Professor Agasa couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted to speak up for the beautiful, gentle, kind, beautiful, virtuous, and elegant Ms. Yukiko and stand up for her.
The second thing is to ask Shinichi to help him find evidence of Edogawa Conan's crimes, or as we'd say now, Inspector Megure Conan's crimes, so that he can get this scoundrel into jail as soon as possible.
Incidentally, he also boasted that he had deliberately bailed out this arrogant, lawless brat in order to make him complacent and commit more crimes, thus revealing more of his true colors. This was a tactic called "feigning indifference to lure the prey into a trap."
The third thing is important: to find out who Conan's mother is, which shameless vixen gave birth to this bastard child, and to get Jiang Chengbei... oh, I mean, to get the Kudo Shinichi that Jiang Chengbei is transformed into to help him find this mistress. This is the most important thing!
Seeing the strange tone in the email, Jiang Chengbei immediately guessed that the person on the other end was definitely not Professor Agasa himself, but rather the same person as Yusaku Kudo from the day before yesterday: Yukiko Kudo.
Judging from the email, she acted quickly, probably by contacting someone she knew and getting it expedited, specifically to have a DNA father-son test done for Conan and Yusaku Kudo.
Upon discovering that Conan is indeed Yusaku Kudo's biological son, Yukiko Kudo must be furious.
The thought of Yukiko Kudo cursing Conan's mother as a shameless vixen in her email, along with other nasty remarks, made Jiang Chengbei burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.
While looking at my phone, I laughed until my stomach hurt. The only regret was that it was just an email, not in person, in front of Conan, to scold Conan's mother.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chengbei immediately got up to wash up, then bought a sumptuous breakfast from the system store, woke Conan and Megure up from their beds, and urged them to wash up and eat quickly, as he had something to do and needed to go out later.
Afterwards, Jiang Chengbei waited for Conan and Megure to get up while eating breakfast and thinking about how to arrange for Conan to meet his mother, and how to ensure that they wouldn't recognize each other.
At the same time, he also replied to an email in the name of Shinichi Kudo, telling them that he was undercover and trying to find evidence of Conan's crimes from the criminal organization behind Conan.
However, Conan's mother is too mysterious, and she seems to be a high-ranking member of this criminal organization. He hasn't found any useful clues, and there's absolutely no background information about her.
Because of the extensive foreshadowing done with Professor Agasa, and because it was actually Shinichi Kudo who revealed Conan's confession video at the Mountain Temple, Yukiko Kudo and Professor Agasa believe what Jiang Chengbei says.
After receiving an email from "Shinichi Kudo" who was willing to help her deal with Conan and his dog, Yukiko Kudo, who had been heartbroken and cried all night, finally cheered up.
She, along with "Shinichi Kudo," Professor Agasa, and Conan, the criminal, as well as Conan's mysterious mistress mother from a dark organization hiding behind the scenes, will fight to the very end.
Chapter 150 Two Undercover Agents Came to the Store
To ensure victory in every battle, Jiang Chengbei secretly disguised himself as a chubby little bird and went to scout out the Kudo residence before setting off.
Jiang Chengbei was disappointed to find that Yukiko Kudo was neither at home nor next door. He had no choice but to give up and take Conan to see the angry Yukiko Kudo. It was a pity.
Meanwhile, Inspector Megure and Mori felt that the reason their exorcism attempt at the shrine yesterday failed was because the Beika Shrine was too small to subdue Conan, a powerful figure.
So, starting the next day, Inspector Megure took Conan to some of the more famous shrines in Tokyo that were believed to ward off evil spirits, such as Kanda Shrine, Tomioka Hachibangu Shrine, and Koami Shrine.
The power of the Grand Shrine is immense; even when Conan went there, no murders occurred.
Seeing that it was effective, Inspector Megure was immediately delighted.
Meanwhile, in the following days, while Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori were on tenterhooks, no murders occurred, even in 5-chome and Teitan Elementary School.
Now, Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri could finally relax. They had found two places that could keep Conan in check: Teitan Elementary School and the Kita family home in Ejo.
Meanwhile, during the time Conan was not around, no more murders occurred in the area surrounding the Metropolitan Police Department and the Megure family's residence. As a result, it was confirmed that Conan, the Grim Reaper, was the one who caused death wherever he went.
While Conan and Inspector Megure were staying at the Kojo Kita family home, Kogoro Mouri finally received a case about a doctor who received toys from children every month, as well as a remittance of one million yen.
This case was investigated and solved by Jiang Chengbei, Conan, Kogoro Mouri, Ran, and Megure. It tells the story of a doctor's family member causing trouble at a hospital, trying to kill the doctor's son to avenge their son's death on the operating table.
There's not much to say about the entire investigation process. However, when they finally found the murderer and the child who were about to commit the crime, Jiang Chengbei and his team were hundreds of meters away from the murderer and the hostage. The murderer had already raised his knife to strike, and Kogoro Mouri and Megure were too far away to reach him and stop him.
When it came time to show off, Jiang Chengbei finally patted Conan's big head at Conan's request, and Conan's superhuman feeling returned, his body was full of chakra again.
So, Conan showed off again from a few hundred meters away.
He kicked out a soccer ball made of Kobe's chakra, which flew hundreds of meters away and struck the wrist of the assailant who was stabbing downwards with a knife, knocking the knife away and successfully saving the child.
Because of the distance, and Conan's unexpected mercy this time (the shooter didn't aim for the head), the murderer still had the ability to commit the crime. By the time Jiang Chengbei and the others arrived, the murderer had a second chance to strike.
However, it's unclear whether it was because they thought Jiang Chengbei and his group outnumbered them, or because they realized they were surrounded and couldn't escape even if they fought, or perhaps Jiang Chengbei was overthinking things and the murderer simply had a change of heart and realized the truth.
When the murderer was about to commit the crime a second time, he stopped himself and knelt down in front of Conan, crying and repenting. He kept apologizing and talking about the pain he had caused by his son's failed surgery.
The same scene that happened a few days ago is playing out again today.
Just like last time, the murderer knelt down and apologized, showing even more sincerity than Uozuka did last time. So, after discussing with the victim and his son, Conan, Kogoro Mouri, Ran, and Megure decided to forgive the man who had been preparing and thinking for two years and finally decided to take action today to find a murderer to accompany his son in death.
I don't know how it was in the original series, but in Jiang Chengbei's world, they not only forgave him, but also didn't plan to call the police. They just let it go and left it at that.
Anyway, no one died, and the murderer has already knelt down to apologize and cried in repentance. He's already suffered so much, what more do you want from him?
The case ended just like that, and Jiang Chengbei didn't care much about it. What he cared about was that, after observing, unlike the original series, Ran didn't find any suspicious points about Conan this time. She felt that Conan's behavior in solving the case was normal and he wasn't suspicious. She then connected the dots and concluded that Conan was Shinichi Kudo.
Jiang Chengbei was relieved to see that Xiaolan had no suspicions.
He wasn't very successful at impersonating Shinichi Kudo; he only fooled Professor Agasa, not Ran, so it was somewhat of a failure.
However, Shinichi Kudo's impersonation of Conan was quite successful, and to this day no one suspects that the current Conan is Shinichi Kudo in his shrunken form, so Jiang Chengbei is very satisfied.
Besides the monthly gift case, Conan and his three friends also solved a series of shopping mall robberies and caught a group of people who were actually serial shop burglars disguised as Kamen Rider.
Since no one died in either case, Inspector Megure and the others were very happy, and their worries were finally put to rest.
They also believed that this auspicious place in Jiangcheng North could indeed ward off evil spirits. It was a miracle that such a scourge as Conan had not committed a single murder while living here for so many days.
Unlike Conan, who lives in the Megure family home, where murders occur frequently around the Megure residence.
Unlike Conan, who would visit the Metropolitan Police Department several times and have several murders occur, with the number only increasing and never decreasing. Later, when he lived in the Metropolitan Police Department, several murders occurred every day.
Now, after staying at Jiang Chengbei's house for so many days, not a single murder has occurred. In the two incidents I encountered, not a single person died. It seems that Conan, the Grim Reaper, still needs Jiang Chengbei, the Plague God, to suppress him.
After confirming this unexpected and pleasant surprise, Megure was able to leave Conan there with peace of mind, while he went home to live peacefully and officially returned to work at the Metropolitan Police Department the next day.
Before leaving, Megure was prepared to pay for food and lodging, but Kojo Kita refused outright, saying he would not accept any money.
This made Kogoro Mouri, who was standing nearby, envious. He really wanted to accept it for Jiang Chengbei, even if Jiang Chengbei didn't want it, he wanted it.
Jiang Chengbei didn't accept money because if he did, it would be a business transaction, and the debt of gratitude would be less. But if he didn't accept money, Conan, though shameless, would still have some sense of propriety, so he decided to let him owe the debt of gratitude.
Afterwards, Inspector Megure packed his things and left.
Conan is now living and eating at Jiang Chengbei's house, and Jiang Chengbei can't very well kick him out.
Because in Conan's eyes, from Jiang Chengbei's perspective, Conan should be his partner who shrinks, not Shinichi Kudo. Jiang Chengbei, you said that I, Conan, am your good partner, and we have a life-or-death friendship. So, I'm staying here for free, isn't that what I should do?
So Conan lived a life of ease, yet also constant anxiety, eating and staying for free in Jiangcheng North.
He was on tenterhooks because he was afraid Jiang Chengbei would discover his true identity, but he felt at ease because he was now Conan. In the organization, they were the best partners and best friends. According to Jiang Chengbei, he had saved Conan's life many times and was Conan's savior.
With such a close relationship, if he didn't act as if he were completely at ease, wouldn't he give himself away?
Of course, Conan often wondered if Jiang Chengbei could tell that he was Shinichi Kudo, and not his partner.
But he's still alive and well, so he doesn't dare to think about that outcome. Instead, he's trying to convince himself that Jiang Chengbei hasn't figured out his true identity.
Most importantly, he gained a significant insight from his first night staying at the Jiangcheng North House with Megure.
That is, Jiang Chengbei has the ability to turn his superpower chakra on or off at will.
This discovery had previously made Conan nervous, scared, and on edge for days and nights, and he had even contacted his brothers several times.
At first, when his brother heard that Jiang Chengbei could shut down his chakra, he immediately stopped talking and ignored him.
Later, Conan finally realized that his brother was actually in a subordinate position when he was with Jiang Chengbei.
No wonder I've never seen my own brother come to see Jiang Chengbei in all this time, and my own brother doesn't mind me impersonating him. It turns out that the arrogant and monstrous brother in front of me is just a little brother in front of Jiang Chengbei.
Even whether or not they can use chakra is controlled by Jiang Chengbei; those two brothers have absolutely no status.
In order to gather more information in Jiangcheng North, Conan endured humiliation and hardship, determined to steal the ability to control chakra in Jiangcheng North.
The thought that if he learned to control whether others could use chakra, then the day when he would capture and bring his extremely vicious brother to justice would not be far off.
After Conan moved in, the job posting that had been hanging outside in Jiangcheng North for a long time without any news finally got some applicants. Two people came to apply, a man and a woman.
The man was blond and dark-skinned, named Tooru Amuro, and the woman was quite pretty, named Fumiyo Fujimine.
Jiang Chengbei only asked his name once, and after confirming that he was the "King of Hired Managers," he didn't ask any more questions and let him stay on the spot.
Seeing her friend, whom she met at the door, being accepted so easily, the young girl, Fujimine Fumiyo, suddenly felt confident. She thought she was pretty and capable, much better than the dark-skinned girl next to her, and that staying on would definitely not be a problem.
Then, after the little girl said her name, Jiang Chengbei said:
20demayo
