In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 1 Am I a murderer?

*bite*
Like dewdrops falling into a calm lake, the crisp mechanical sound ringing in Akikawa Sosuke's mind created ripples on his eyelids.

As he gradually regained consciousness from his coma, the first thing that came into Akikawa Sosuke's head was a splitting headache like that after a drunken binge.

My body felt as heavy as if it were injected with molten lead.

The taste of rust spread in his mouth, which Akikawa Sosuke was very familiar with. It was the taste coming from the hemoglobin in the blood.

The dizzying scene gradually stabilized.

next second.

The scene in front of him made Akikawa Sosuke's eyes widen suddenly.

A closed and locked van.

The front windshield of the car in front of me was covered with spider-web-like cracks, and I couldn't see it clearly at all.

And the source of the heaviness of his body - the woman who fell on top of him.

Akikawa Sosuke wanted to push the woman away.

He moved his fingers slightly, and a hard and sticky touch came into his hands.

Only then did Akikawa Sosuke notice that he seemed to be holding something.

When Akikawa Sosuke used all his strength to push the woman who was on top of him back to the driving seat on the right, he could see clearly the situation of the woman next to him.

The woman next to me died in a very tragic way.

The woman's neck, chest and abdomen were covered with knife wounds.
The vaguely visible beige T-shirt had already been stained with blood, and in the dim light it looked like a hideous painting.

The hard touch that Akikawa Sosuke just felt came from the handle of the dagger inserted into the woman's abdomen, and the sticky touch naturally came from the blood in the woman's abdomen.

It was obvious that the woman had been stabbed to death with a dagger.

He recalled the scene when he woke up and the woman pounced on him, and how he still held the dagger tightly in his hand that was inserted into the woman's abdomen after he fell unconscious.

Akikawa Sosuke's heart rate also began to gradually increase.

For Akikawa Sosuke, who had seen many dead people, the scene before him was quite shocking, but it was far less shocking than the shock he felt at this moment when he found himself in an unknown place.

"This is where?"

"Who is this woman?"

"Why am I still alive?"

Akikawa Sosuke didn't understand why he was here when he should have been dead.

He had no memory of killing the woman in front of him.

*Woo—*
Suddenly.

The sound of sirens coming from a distance awakened Akikawa Sosuke from his confusion.

Akikawa Sosuke realized a problem.

"No matter how strange the scene in front of me is, if someone else saw this scene, they would probably think that I killed this woman..."

Akikawa Sosuke thought so in his heart.

At this time, a translucent azure font appeared in front of my eyes along with a mechanical sound that sounded in my mind.

[Option system is bound]

[Newbie gift pack: Japanese (S) (native level)]

[The system will issue corresponding rewards based on the host's choice]

[A car that is like a closed room, a woman stabbed to death, sirens getting closer and closer, what choice will you make as a suspected murderer? ]

[1. Do nothing, wait quietly for the police to arrive, then surrender to the police and admit that he killed the woman]

[Reward: Recovery Card x1 (can restore the host's injuries)]

[2. Do nothing, wait quietly for the police to arrive, but firmly deny that you killed the woman]

[Reward: Trait Card x1 (Permanently obtain a character's random traits)]

【3. Escape】

[Reward: Constitution +3]

[4. Before the police arrive, try your best to cover up the evidence of your murder and escape responsibility]

[Reward: Skill Card x1 (Permanently obtain a character's random skill)]

The splitting headache and dizziness he felt when he just woke up still lingered in Akikawa Sosuke's head.

Although his ability to think had been severely deprived, the translucent azure font that suddenly appeared before his eyes and the mechanical sound that sounded in his mind still allowed Akikawa Sosuke to guess the current situation.

"Sure enough, I have traveled through time... This kind of thing actually happened..."

"The novice gift pack comes with [Japanese], which means this is Japan?" Although Akikawa Sosuke still has many doubts about this so-called system, the current situation is obviously not one in which he can leisurely study the benefits of time travelers.

He didn't know how long he could remain conscious.

"At first glance, there are four options, but option 3 is too outrageous. With this body, how can I escape..."

Just pushing the woman who fell on him back to the driving position had already consumed a considerable amount of effort on Akikawa Sosuke's part.

He had no doubt that if he really did any strenuous exercise under such circumstances, his extremely weak body would immediately fall apart like a building block.

The option of running away is ruled out, as for the two options of waiting quietly...

Akikawa Sosuke did not travel through time and space with the original owner's memories.

And even if there is, there is no interest in taking responsibility for the mistakes made by the original owner.

"The risk of denying it is also very high, because at present, it seems highly likely that the original owner killed this woman..."

"In this case, there is only one option left..."

Akikawa Sosuke made a decision and turned to look at the woman sitting in the driver's seat next to him.

—

"The first case occurred on August 8, and a note with numbers was left next to the deceased."

"The second case occurred a week later on August 8, and a note with numbers was also left next to the deceased."

In a residential building near a national highway in Tokyo.

A young girl with short black wavy hair said with a smile to the man who was being subdued and pinned to the floor by two detectives in front of her.

Next to her stood an elementary school student wearing a red bow tie and large round-framed glasses.

"The third case happened a week ago, and there was also a note with numbers next to the third victim. From that moment on, I was sure that this was a premeditated serial murder."

"After investigating the information of the three deceased persons, I found that they had no connection with each other."

"Then the note left at the scene was a trick designed by you guys to disguise unrelated cases as serial murders committed by the same person!"

"When you think about it this way, the number on the note is easy to understand. The number minus the date is exactly the destination of this crime."

"You...you...are you?"

The man who was pinned to the floor raised his head with all his strength, looking in shock at the handsome high school student in front of him whose gender was indeterminate.

"My name is Masumi Sera, and I'm a detective."

After saying this, Masumi Sera turned around and looked at the elementary school student next to him, with a smug smile on the corner of his lips.

"..."

Conan opened his mouth, looking speechlessly at the tomboy in front of him who not only stole the limelight but also stole his lines. In the end, he resisted the urge to complain.

"Thank you, Ms. Sera."

"This time, it's really all thanks to Miss Sera."

The two detectives in the room thanked Sera Masumi.

"It's okay, it's okay. You just need to ask him about the criminals in the previous three cases..."

Masumi Sera instructed the detectives on what to do next.

Conan, who was standing beside her, was looking through the window of the room at the national highway across the street that was blocked by a soundproof wall.

Just when we were catching the criminal, a car accident happened on the highway.

Although it was most likely just a simple traffic accident, Conan always felt a little uneasy for some reason.

After all, in terms of time, the time of the car accident was too coincidental with the serial murder case on his side.

"Boy, let's go."

After giving instructions to the detective on the follow-up of the serial murder case, Masumi Sera greeted the beautiful detective Miwako Sato who had just tortured the criminal and was answering the phone, and then lightly kicked Conan who was staring blankly at the window.

Conan came back to his senses, nodded, and followed Sera Masumi to leave.

"This is Sato. Yes, there was a car accident on the national highway opposite my apartment not long ago..."

The voice of Sato Miwako was heard.

however.

in the next moment.

Detective Sato Miwako's sudden rise in voice caused the two detectives to stop in their tracks.

"Eh? What did you say?! I'll be right there!"
