Conan: Ran, I really am Shinichi, you have to believe me!

Page 4

Putting aside his complete trust in the character of both of Kudo's brothers, just considering how long they had served as his free tools, how could he possibly watch their secrets be exposed?

Especially considering that Yusaku Kudo is a public figure and Shinichi Kudo is a minor!

As a police officer and their good friend, Inspector Megure has a duty to protect them!

After all the irrelevant bystanders left, and only their own people remained, Inspector Megure and Shinichi Kudo began to dig deeper, trying to get some information out of Jiang Chengbei.

Normally, Jiang Chengbei is extremely prone to slipping his tongue; even if you don't want to ask, he can still reveal some incredibly big secrets.

However, given that Inspector Megure wouldn't even pay for solving the case, Jiang Chengbei didn't say anything more. At most, he just said that Conan Edogawa was an undocumented immigrant, without parents, education, or any sense of lawlessness or taboo.

Or add a sentence at the end:

"Just like what Sewane Takayuki said, as an unregistered child with no one to support me, how can I live without the kind sponsorship of criminals?"

I'm able to earn money and survive thanks to the kind-hearted murderer, the incompetent police, the police's inability to catch the murderer, and the people who provide me with food and clothing, and who gave me the opportunity to receive sponsorship.

Hearing Jiang Chengbei's extremely arrogant words, Inspector Megure, who previously did not have high blood pressure, suddenly developed it and immediately suffered a stroke, saying in uncontrollable rage:

"Conan Edogawa, what you're doing is wrong! Even if you're just a child and the law can't touch you, you can't do this!"

Even if you have no parents and no one to support you, you still have the Japanese government!

"Conan, I promise, the government will take care of you from now on. I'll contact an orphanage for you right away..."

Looking again at Jiang Chengbei's face, which resembled Shinichi Kudo's, Inspector Megure gritted his teeth and said:

"No, you've gone astray and can't go to an orphanage, so I'll adopt you!"

Who can blame him when both Kudo and his son are his good brothers!

Since that's the case, I will raise your son!

"Conan, don't worry, I will definitely educate you well and help you get rid of the bad habits you picked up in society, so that you can have a happy childhood!"

Conan, don't worry, I will treat you like my own son. When you come to my home, I will let you feel the deep love of a father and the warmth of a family.

Poor child, the thought of experiencing the cruelty of society at such a young age makes me want to cry.

It's all because of this messed-up society and the irresponsible Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare that a kid like you, Conan, is left homeless, sob sob sob...

Conan, don't worry, you have a home now and you won't have to face those dangerous criminals anymore. From now on, you'll be called Inspector Megure Conan..."

Jiang Chengbei: "..."

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

Megure Juzo cried while hugging the fake Conan, his snot and tears streaming down his face, which stunned Shinichi Kudo and left Jiang Chengbei completely bewildered.

"Conan, you have a family now. Come on, call me Dad, and I'll take care of you..."

Jiang Chengbei glanced at Shinichi Kudo and asked in a low voice, "Drum washing machine, what do you think? Do you think Inspector Megure is suitable to be Conan Edogawa's father?"

When he saw Jiang Chengbei come to ask for his opinion, although he didn't understand why he was asking him, Kudo Shinichi felt that he could still be saved because Jiang Chengbei looked so much like him.

At the same time, he also wanted to avoid getting involved with his father, who was a world-famous public figure, so he nodded and said:

"Yes, I think Inspector Megure is a person of high moral character. If you learn from him, you will soon be able to turn over a new leaf and get back on the right path."

Conan, listen to my advice. Don't think that just because you're only 7 years old, Japanese law can't touch you. People will eventually grow up. It will be too late to regret it when you're an adult.

"While you're still young... and Inspector Megure is willing to adopt you and treat you like his son, you must seize this opportunity, stop your wrongdoing in time, and turn over a new leaf. Only then can you have a bright future."

"Oh, I see. Drum washing machine, I'll ask you one more time, so you're willing to let Conan Edogawa become Inspector Megure's son?"

"Of course, someone as good as Inspector Megure is a blessing to have as his son. Conan, you're really lucky."

Seeing that Shinichi Kudo had agreed, Jiang Chengbei couldn't say anything to object. In any case, his role as Conan was only temporary. As long as the real Conan came online, his mission as a substitute Conan would end, and he would return to his original form as Jiang Chengbei.

Since Shinichi Kudo agreed to be Juro Inspector Megure's son, what else could he say?

Seeing that Jiang Chengbei had consulted with Shinichi Kudo and then said nothing more, and that Shinichi Kudo supported his idea, Inspector Megure was overjoyed.

Having been married for many years without children, now that he's middle-aged, he's finally going to have his own son today, and a big one at that, so he won't have to endure the trouble of taking care of an infant. Inspector Megure is incredibly excited.

"Conan, from now on you are my son, my own son! Conan Megure, from now on you are Conan Megure!"

Looking at Conan's adorable big head, and his deductive reasoning ability, it's clear he inherited all of Yusaku's excellent genes, making him even better than Shinichi, who is ten years older.

Thinking of this, Inspector Megure was overcome with emotion, tears of happiness streaming down his face.

Brother Kudo, I'll keep your secret safe. Also, Conan will never suffer under my care, and he'll definitely grow up to be as outstanding as you!

Chapter 4 I have a "Come Kill Me" system, so I can only keep courting death.

"Conan, from now on you have a home. I will take care of your living expenses and give you pocket money. You will no longer have to risk your life to wander the streets."

So do you know where the missing 30 million is? As long as you tell us the whereabouts of the 30 million and the other gold and silver jewelry, you'll still be a good kid.

Because Jiang Chengbei had previously slipped up and admitted that he had a criminal record for extorting criminals, Shinichi Kudo and the others believed what Seiba Zun De said.

Then, adhering to the principle of healing the sick and saving lives, and never abandoning or giving up on any child who has gone astray, Mumu Thirteen, with a kind and gentle face, began to persuade them earnestly.

"What 30 million? I don't know anything about that. Isn't that just an excuse that Seiba Takatsu made up to frame me because I caught him?"

If I had actually taken or hidden his 30 million and gold and silver jewelry, would I be so foolish as to arrest him and hand him over to you?

"If I really took his money, I could have just left. With a life on his hands, would he dare call the police?"

"Hmm, Conan, what you said makes sense."

"Inspector Megure, don't be naive. You actually believe a murderer? He said he lost 30 million yen, so he really did lose 30 million yen?"

Who in their right mind would keep 30 million yuan in cash at home?

"The entire villa is swarming with police, police are everywhere. How could a little kid like me possibly steal thirty million and gold and silver jewelry right under your noses? Are you insulting your police capabilities? Are you saying the Metropolitan Police Department is full of idiots?"

Conan used the voice changer with a ribbon to dub voices for Kogoro Mouri countless times, and they never noticed.

Jiang Chengbei is now like Conan, everyone has a halo, so the police can't find out what he's doing. Taking 30 million and a big bag of gold and silver jewelry right under their noses is a piece of cake.

Stealing money from them in front of them, and then openly mocking their incompetence—it's so damn satisfying to do something like that, to destroy their spirit.

"Huh? Haha... That's right, there are police everywhere here. If someone can still steal 30 million without anyone noticing, then we police officers are too useless."

Besides, I'm not Nakamori Ginzo, and our First Investigation Division isn't the Second Investigation Division. Conan, you're not Kaito Kid either. It's absolutely impossible for 30 million yen plus gold and silver jewelry to be stolen right under our noses!

"That old geezer, Seiba Takatoku, even after being arrested, still tries to lie to us, using us to get revenge on Conan-kun! How despicable!"

"That's right, Inspector Megure is brilliant. You're much better than Inspector Nakamori, hehehe." Seeing that he had fooled Inspector Megure, Jiang Chengbei chuckled and flattered him.

Under the halo of being easily fooled, Megure, who was also easily swayed, believed even Kogoro Mouri's words. Now, he had no reason not to believe Jiang Chengbei's sophistry, so he was easily fooled.

Megure is easy to fool, but Shinichi Kudo is not. He has doubts about Jiang Chengbei's words, but he doesn't have any evidence. The key is that he just went with the police to search the area and didn't find any stolen money, so he can't come out to testify against Jiang Chengbei yet.

Although he still hadn't figured out where Jiang Chengbei had hidden the money, he didn't give up. As long as it was a crime, Kudo Shinichi would definitely investigate to the end and find the truth. So, still determined, he started to probe for information:

"Conan, you said you didn't take it, and that it was a lie made up by Mr. Seba to get revenge on you, but you just admitted that you did extort money."

"Washing machine? I, Conan Edogawa, am an unregistered resident. If I don't portray myself in a bad light, you'll send me to an orphanage. How could I possibly go to such a terrifying place as an orphanage?"

After hearing Jiang Chengbei's explanation, Shinichi Kudo, unusually, believed his nonsense and nodded in agreement.

“That makes sense. To prevent you from going astray and ruining your future, the kind-hearted Inspector Megure would never stand by and watch you become a criminal in the orphanage without anyone to discipline you.”

"Conan Edogawa, you're taking advantage of Inspector Megure's kindness."

"If that's what you think, I have nothing to say. Anyway, that wasn't my original intention."

Jiang Chengbei didn't refute much; after all, his initial intention was just to test the waters.

If you were a born bad person, would someone like Inspector Megure or Shinichi Kudo try to save you, or not interfere, or simply arrest and educate them to test their moral standards?

Now that Jiang Chengbei has discovered that even though he is a bad kid who has committed extortion, Inspector Megure still wants to save him through adoption and education, Jiang Chengbei feels that things are getting complicated. The Red Team members are starting to want to kill him. The road ahead is winding and the task is arduous.

Fortunately, I've transmigrated into the world of Detective Conan. As long as I work hard, become the club president soon, keep my mouth shut, find a few girlfriends, date a lot, break up a few times, and witness the murderer's killing scenes, there should be plenty of people in this world who want to kill me.

After testing the waters and finding that getting the red team members to kill him would be troublesome and require a lot of effort, Jiang Chengbei changed his mind and decided to focus his suicidal actions on the extras who were always ready to kill others. After all, it would be easier and simpler to get them to want to kill him.

Especially for those murderers who have killed before, successfully taken the first step, and have experience, as long as they know that their murders have been exposed and are given an opportunity to kill to cover it up, they should easily want to kill themselves.

After figuring this out, Jiang Chengbei made a plan for his future. As long as he could keep his life and avoid any unexpected mishaps or being stabbed, that would be fine.

Of course, as a newbie who had only been in the Conan world for less than an hour, Jiang Chengbei still had some newbie perks.

His newbie perk is that there's no Conan in the Conan world, so he gets to take on Conan's role.

He has two lives during the mission.

If he were killed while he was in Conan's form, he would only lose the mission and the ability to become Conan; he could still revert to being Jiang Chengbei and continue living his life.

The condition for ending the mission of replacing Conan is that the real Conan comes online. Once Shinichi Kudo becomes Conan, his mission ends, and he also loses the ability to become Conan and reverts to Jiang Chengbei's appearance.

This mission is a beginner's bonus mission because after replacing Conan, the mission doesn't stipulate what he must do. If he hides and doesn't cause trouble, he can get through the period when he becomes Conan peacefully without any difficulty.

The only factor affecting the best reward for this mission is the percentage of time he spends as Conan during the mission.

If Shinichi Kudo remained in Conan's form until he transformed into Jiang Chengbei, and spent 100% of his time in Conan's form, then this mission would be completed at the highest level, with the best reward.

Although the best reward is still unknown, Jiang Chengbei still hopes to get the highest reward.

After all, the system didn't hold him back. Just an hour ago, he had already transformed into Conan after transmigrating to the Conan world, without wasting a single moment. As a result, Jiang Chengbei only knew that his appearance in the Conan world wasn't Conan's, but he himself didn't know what he actually looked like in the Conan world.

Because he didn't know what the specific rewards would be after completing this newbie bonus mission, and because while doing the mission and transforming into Conan, he actually had two lives and Conan's protagonist aura.

So, immediately coming out to court death, luring in another person to kill yourself, accumulating one more kill coin—while you still have two lives, improving your strength is the right thing to do.

There's a system where everyone tries to kill me; only by improving your own strength can you avoid actually getting killed in the end.

Chapter 5 resolves Conan's future worries.

Jiang Chengbei is a good person. In order to provide a safe and comfortable environment for the future real Conan to do crazy things, he directly dragged Kudo Shinichi to the outside of the villa and invited reporters to take pictures of them.

Tonight, even the great detective Shinichi Kudo suffered a humiliating defeat. He not only failed to solve the case but was also outmaneuvered by a novice elementary school student.

Today's case was solved by an elementary school student, which was big news in itself, with a strong storyline. So as soon as Conan and Shinichi Kudo came out, the surrounding reporters swarmed around them, eager to conduct interviews.

"Come on, everyone, don't rush into the interview. First, take a picture of me and my defeated opponent, Shinichi Kudo, and give us a big group photo. It'll be on the front page tomorrow."

Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei say that he was his defeated opponent, Kudo Shinichi was immediately enraged.

He didn't solve the case today; it was because he was tricked by a villain who drugged him just before he was about to solve it, allowing the villain to solve the case first.

Damn it, that kid is so shameless!
