In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 5: Out of the Dragon Pond and into the Tiger's Den

When Akikawa Sosuke woke up again, he found himself in the hospital ward.

The feeling of headache and dizziness still lingered in my mind. Although my body was still weak, it was better than before.

Akikawa Sosuke sat up with difficulty, leaned against the head of the bed, and sorted out the last of his memories in his mind.

Eyes as blue as the sky, short black hair, and messy bangs on the forehead.

He was wearing a dark blue suit uniform and light blue shorts, a pair of large black round-frame glasses that took up nearly half of his face, and a red bow tie at his collar.

——This is a look that would be unfamiliar to anyone who lived in the era of Akikawa Sousuke’s previous life.

"I remember now. I met the Shinigami Elementary School Student."

Akikawa Sosuke couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead.

Originally, he thought he had simply traveled to Japan, but he never expected that he would travel to a Japan where there existed elementary school students who were gods of death.

Akikawa Sosuke has never watched "Detective Conan" and his knowledge of this animation is only superficial.

But even so.

Akikawa Sorasuke had heard of Edogawa Conan's knowledge reserves and reasoning abilities that were comparable to a computer.

Akikawa Sosuke is convinced that

As long as I have anything to do with this elementary school student, the peaceful and stable life I hope for will be nothing but a mirage.

There may even be a risk to one’s life!

I believe that everyone who has heard of the name of the Elementary School Student of Death should avoid him as much as possible.

And at this moment, after covering up all traces of the crime, I appeared in front of the Death Elementary School Student as the number one suspect!

The reason why Conan followed him into the ambulance was self-evident.

You must be doubting yourself.

But the terrible thing is that I was not awake the whole time, so I don’t know how much I have exposed.

"How much did I reveal, and how much did he notice?"

Akikawa Sosuke, who has always been quite confident in his actions, couldn't help but have doubts in his mind at this moment.

"It's like getting out of a dragon's den and into a tiger's den."

Of course, Akikawa Sosuke knew that leaving the crime scene was only the first step, and it was far from being able to feel at ease.

As the prime suspect, no matter whether Conan exists in this world or not, I will definitely be questioned and investigated by the police.

It is not easy to survive the police's serial questioning and investigation without the original owner's memory.

Now tell yourself that there will be a genius of reasoning from the Son of the Planes next to you, watching your every word and action.

In fact, if Akikawa Sosuke wants to escape successfully, he must build on a foundation.

That is the presumption of innocence.

Only if the police cannot produce conclusive evidence to prove that you are the murderer can you have a chance to get away with it.

But as far as Akikawa Sosuke knows, the police in Japan in the last century simply presumed guilty before the fact when handling cases.

Although on the surface the Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency are officially saying that they will handle cases based on evidence.

But in reality, whether it is perverted, stealing, robbery, or murder.

In the vast majority of cases, the police simply arrest people and convict them without any solid evidence.

Although Akikawa Sosuke was not sure what year he was in.

However, just by looking at the surrounding environment and facilities, Akikawa Sosuke guessed that the era he was in at this moment should not be much different from his previous life.

In this way, as long as there is no definite evidence to prove that they are the murderer, the police will have no way to convict themselves.

Akikawa Sosuke had thought about pretending to have amnesia by taking advantage of his head injury before.

But in modern medicine,
Neuroimaging tools such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, positron emission tomography, and functional magnetic resonance imaging can be used to determine whether a patient's brain areas related to memory formation and storage are damaged.

So even if Akikawa Sosuke really didn't have the original owner's memories, it would still be difficult for him to escape the crime by pretending to have lost his memory.

"The biggest problem now is that I have too little information. Not only do I know very little about the case, I don't even know anything about my own current situation." Akikawa Sorasuke thought to himself, turned around and pressed the button to call the nurse.

After a while, a nurse in a white nurse uniform came in.

"Mr. Akikawa, you're awake."

The nurse already knew Akikawa Sousuke's identity, but she still gave him a kind and gentle smile.

"It turns out the original owner's surname is Qiuchuan"

Akikawa Sosuke thought to himself and said:
"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."

"Bathroom, right? Okay, I'll find someone to take you there."

The young nurse said this and turned and walked out the door.

In a moment, she came in with a man who was also wearing a white nurse uniform.

"Hello Mr. Akikawa, let me help you to the bathroom."

"Thank you."

Akikawa Sosuke thanked the other party softly, removed the electrodes on his body with the help of the female nurse, and with the support of the male nurse, pushed the infusion stand towards the bathroom.

"I heard that the car Mr. Akikawa was riding in had a car accident and that he was poisoned by a carbon monoxide leak. That's really scary."

On the way to the bathroom, Akikawa Sosuke heard the male nurse talking to him.

The other person's tone was full of sympathy and sounded like he really cared about her.

"Thank you."

Akikawa Sosuke responded to the other party's concern in a flat tone.

"As expected, I am being monitored by the detectives."

"She has a high level of professionalism and there are no flaws in her disguise as a nurse."

"But it's a pity that the decisive difference in temperament between a detective and an ordinary citizen still exposed your identity."

Akikawa Sosuke complained in his heart.

Detectives all have a certain aura that they themselves are never aware of.

Criminals, or people like Akikawa Sosuke, can basically tell the other person's identity at a glance.

The other party's purpose of getting close to me is obvious.

Akikawa Sosuke would naturally not reveal any flaws.

"But it's better than anything else that Mr. Akikawa is safe and sound. Please take good care of yourself in the future."

Akikawa Sosuke's cold response did not seem to reduce the other party's enthusiasm for continuing to talk to him.

However, just a few simple words from the detective who was pretending to be a nurse made Akikawa Sosuke realize that something was wrong.

"Take care of your body? Is that something people would normally say to someone who's been in an accident?"

Akikawa Sosuke moved his right hand imperceptibly, and immediately a piercing pain came from his right hand.

"My right hand was clearly starting to swell, but I was not allowed to receive treatment, which means they probably didn't notice that my right hand was broken."

"So it's even more impossible for them to know that I broke my right hand on my own initiative."

Akikawa Sosuke ruled out the possibility that the police were alluding to the fracture of his right hand.

"After a car accident, the engine was damaged and carbon monoxide leaked, which is difficult to do manually."

"Besides, I almost died from carbon monoxide poisoning. I was not the driver. The police should not suspect that I was the one who caused the carbon monoxide leak."

The possibility that the detective was alluding to carbon monoxide poisoning was also ruled out.

"That is to say."

Akikawa Sosuke lowered his head slightly, and his narrow eyes narrowed slightly.

"The police have determined that the original owner attempted suicide."
