Kamen Rider: I, Conan, am Faiz

"How about it, Reiko? Are you ready?"

"Please rest assured, Mr. Domoto, I am fully prepared."

Looking from behind the curtain at the audience seats, she saw that there was obviously an empty seat in the first row of VIP seats. Reiko Akiba couldn't help but clench her hands and made a decision at the same time.

"Mr. Domoto, after playing and singing "Amazing Grace", can I sing a song of my own to end?"

in the auditorium

"Strange, where is the little brat? Why hasn't he come yet? The concert is about to start." Looking at the empty seat on the side, Sonoko muttered in confusion.

Ai explained calmly, "He must have gone to the bathroom. Edogawa's stomach seems to be a little bit unwell lately. He should be back soon."

"Tsk, a bad stomach is no small matter. If it doesn't work, just have surgery. It will be solved once and for all."

Just when Sonoko had already started looking for a hospital and a doctor, Xiaolan leaned over to Xiaoai's ear and whispered, "Shiho... Shiho, did Shinichi really just go to the bathroom?"

"There's no need to do that. Now I'm Haibara Ai, so just call me Xiao Ai. Calling me by my old name might cause unnecessary trouble."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Xiaolan quickly apologized, while Ai shrugged nonchalantly and turned to look at Xiaolan.

"How could I possibly know where that guy went, but I only know that he will definitely use this excuse when he comes back."

"makes sense."

As childhood sweethearts of more than ten years, Xiaolan agreed with this, but at the same time she felt inexplicably nervous. After all, Ai had only been there for a short time, and the tacit understanding between her and Conan was not inferior to her own, and even better.

Just as Ai was feeling mixed emotions, the lights in the concert hall were suddenly turned off, and then several spotlights shone on the center of the stage at the same time. The next moment, Reiko Akiba, dressed in a gorgeous dress, walked onto the stage gracefully and calmly.

After bowing slightly to the audience, Reiko Akiba raised her head and parted her red lips, while the accompaniment of the organ sounded.

"Amazing grace, how sweet it is, my sins are forgiven..."

The melodious melody echoed in every corner of the concert hall, as if it was a call from heaven.

While the singing was going on, Conan was fighting the scarab Orphinoth, and the singing seemed to become the accompaniment of the battle.

"Ha ha!"

Conan hit the scarab Orphion with a heavy punch in the face, and then kicked the scarab Orphion in the abdomen, instantly making the opponent retreat several steps.

Turning to look in the direction of the concert hall, Conan shook his numb right hand vigorously, and then spoke to the holy beetle Ophino.

"The performance has already begun. Just think of it as a requiem for you."

"you wanna die!"

Holding the sword high in his hand, the enraged Scarab Orphino rushed forward like a mad bull! Conan was not to be outdone and started fighting with it.

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, the mobile Pegasus suddenly appeared! The next moment, it transformed into an armed helicopter and carried out a saturation-type strafing from a high altitude!

"what!"

"Idiot! I'm still here!"

It has to be said that the fire support of the Mobile Pegasus was very effective. The scarab Orphino was directly blown away by the intensive firepower offensive.

But Conan was also greatly affected. Fortunately, he lay on the ground with his head in his hands as soon as the gunshot rang out, otherwise he would have probably suffered the same fate as the scarab Orphino.

"Buzz!"

"You idiot! You almost hit me again!"

Seeing Mobile Pegasus land, Conan immediately stood up and rushed over, and then without saying a word, he kicked it to vent his resentment!

After being kicked, Mobile Pegasus couldn't help but take several steps back, and finally turned into a motorcycle and lay on the ground.

"You've learned your lesson now."

Conan quickly ran to the Mobile Pegasus and pulled out the Faiz Blade from it, then inserted the command chip into the groove of the Faiz Blade to charge it.

"ready"

"Exceed Charge"

"what!"

At the moment the energy was charged, Conan turned around without hesitation and faced the scarab Orphino who had just stood up, and then swung out a ground-breaking move! Then he quickly sprinted behind the red energy slash,

"what!"

The moment the scarab was hit by the red energy, it was immediately trapped in mid-air. The next second, Conan rushed over and raised his sword in one go!

"Shh!"

"what!"

After several consecutive swings, the body of the scarab Orphino was immediately wrapped in blue flames, and the next moment it turned into ashes that drifted away with the wind.

"Phew~ It's over."

After finishing another battle that was not too difficult, Conan stretched his limbs and turned to face the concert hall.

"We have to hurry up, I hope I can still catch up."

Inside the concert hall

"We sing praises with joy before the Father's throne, longing for that day to come soon~"

As the organ melody ended, Reiko Akiba's heavenly singing also ended. Even until Reiko Akiba bowed in tribute, the audience still did not come back to their senses for a long time.

"Crack...crack..."

"Clap clap clap!"

I don't know who was the first to come to their senses and applaud, and then the hundreds of audience members in the concert hall gave warm applause in unison, paying the highest respects to the soprano.

Faced with the audience's enthusiastic applause, the battle-hardened Reiko Akiba did not lose her composure too much. She just maintained an elegant and calm smile, but a hint of disappointment flashed in the depths of her beautiful eyes.

[After all... I'm still late...]

"Conan, why did you come just now? Ms. Reiko's performance has already ended."

"Private Masai Xiaolan sister, Wadasi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, so she went to the bathroom~"

"Ok!"

Hearing the conversation amid the applause, Reiko Akiba hurriedly looked towards the direction where the voice came from, only to see that Conan had returned to his seat and was explaining to the people around him with a flattering smile on his face.

The next moment, Conan turned to Reiko Akiba and put his hands together in a sincere apology.

"Pfft~"

Seeing Conan's actions, Akiba Reiko couldn't help laughing. At the same time, the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. Then she took the microphone from the staff beside her.

"Thank you very much for attending the inauguration ceremony of the Domoto Music Hall. Now please allow me to continue to sing an original piece for you, and also to express my gratitude to a friend who has helped me a lot."

"it is good!"

It's a rare deal to listen to two songs for one ticket price. The audience immediately applauded enthusiastically and cheered for Reiko Akiba's decision.

Seeing that the audience all supported her decision, Reiko Akiba smiled and nodded slightly, then turned her eyes to Conan and lip-synced.

【Thank you, little knight. 】

Reiko Akiba didn't seem to know that Conan had actually learned lip reading in Hawaii, so Conan responded with a cute smile.

Just then the accompaniment sounded, and then Reiko Akiba put the microphone in front of her mouth and began singing in a completely different way from before.

"The wheel of fate keeps turning"

"But I've always been waiting for you"

“Why am I so lucky?”

“Every time I see the horizon, I feel inexplicably sad.”

“Looking back at my past self from a distance”

"Infinite Sentiment"

"The wheel of fate keeps turning"

"The only thing you can think deeply about is Mystery"

"Look, the destined lover is right there"

“But I’ve always been waiting for you”

“Look up at the stars and smile”

“I really want to fly away from a high place”

“Speed ​​up and look far through the telescope”

“See the future is here”

“The wheel of fortune keeps spinning”

“Where can I find my dream?”

"The Two of Us on Blue Earth"

“Now it’s constantly evolving”

"The wheel of fate keeps turning"

"Spread the wings of courage"

“Luck is waiting for you at any time”

"Always Watching You"

"Always Watching You"

When the song ended, the audience were all stunned.

Such meaningful lyrics, coupled with Reiko Akiba's powerful singing skills, bring an impact that is no less than that of "Amazing Grace", and it can even be said to far exceed it!

At least for now, the minds of all the audience present have been completely occupied by "Turning the Wheel of Fortune", and they have no power to resist. I am afraid that even after several years, the melody of this song will still echo in their minds from time to time.

PS: I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I heard that the prototype of Akiba Reiko is partly Izumi Sister, so I sang this childhood classic in this way. I think all the readers who have watched Detective Conan should have heard this song, right? Do you remember how old you were at that time?
