The Split-Actress in Conan's World

Chapter 3 The plot begins

Zero: Hello, Mr. Idea.

idea: Hello, Mr. Zero.

Zero: I am very interested in your planning ability.

idea: Really? I'm a little flattered.

Zero: After all, not everyone can easily get my contact information.

idea: I guess you are more interested in other things?

Zero: How do you say it?

idea:For example...

idea: 5-4=0.

Zero: ...It seems you know a lot.

Despite this input, Zhu Fu Jingguang breathed a sigh of relief.

This "idea" knows Zero's identity, but not the truth.

Fortunately in misfortune.

Zero: Since you are willing to reply to my message, I guess you want something.

idea:bingo!

idea: We have a basis for cooperation.

Zhu Fu Jingguang deliberately delayed for a while and did not reply immediately.

He wanted to see how much this person knew.

idea: For example, news about those wines.

Zero: Having a foundation doesn’t mean you can be insincere.

idea: Of course not, I will go there in person, you can even find a cafe in advance.

Have no fear.

This guy seemed to be totally unafraid of the threats from the police, but correspondingly, he did show his sincerity.

If he really showed up "in person".

idea: Looking forward to your contact.

The conversation ended.

【Congratulations on completing a role play】

[Roleplay: The arrogant criminal who forewarns the crime 33%]

[Role: Provocateur 21%]

【Role played: Informer 46%】

[The comment for this role is "a dark and despicable fence-sitter"]

[Your reward has been sent to your mailbox, please check it carefully]

What is a fence-sitter!

This is called a conspirator who is good at maneuvering with long sleeves!

Isn't it just playing both sides and stirring up Gin's dissatisfaction with the big sponsor of the funding?

Isn't it just a threat and then sending an undercover agent to clean up the mess?

Can this be called a fence-sitter?

Lin Chiyu looked at the comments on the broken screen with disdain and went straight to check his remuneration.

A box of colorful children's candy appeared in the mailbox. He looked at the text description on the side and understood the purpose of this thing.

【Mixed black and white sugar】

[After taking it for a period of time, the credibility of your truthful words will decrease slightly, and the credibility of your lies will increase slightly. ]

[The number of candies will be automatically refreshed at 0: every natural day. ]

This thing looks a bit evil.

He took out the "confused black and white candy" from the mailbox with interest and tentatively put one into his mouth.

It's crunchy and has just the right amount of sweetness, just right for his taste.

Good stuff, can be used as a snack.

Rinshakuha happily put it away.

The next thing to do is to find a new place to live.

He called the real estate agent he had contacted and decided to go and check out a few houses tomorrow morning.

So a peaceful day passed, although some not-so-good things happened, such as a murder, Gin sitting in the car with a murderous sneer on his face, Vodka working hard to deal with the corpse, and Bourbon "difficultly" escaping from the police blockade, declaring the mission a failure.

But in the end, the night was silent.

Early the next morning, Lin Chiyu got up, washed, and dressed himself up.

The appointment to view the house was at nine o'clock. He had a leisurely breakfast and rushed to the appointment.

"Ah, you must be Mr. Rin on the phone. I'm Hashimoto Hiroshi, who you talked to before."

In front of him was a rather unremarkable middle-aged office worker with a respectful and fawning smile on his face, wearing a brown-green suit. He was now striding towards him to shake hands with him.

Lin Chiyu just nodded slightly to him.

"Mr. Hashimoto, if possible, I would like to go to the house now."

"Of course, of course. The owner has already communicated with us. Our agency will take over the lease. As long as you are satisfied, we can sign the contract on the spot."

Having said this, Hashimoto Hiroshi led the way and drove Rin Shakuha to the actual site.

2-20, Yoneka-cho.

This is the address of the house he has his eyes on.

In other words, it may be more well-known that this is next door to Kudo Shin's family.

"The whole family of the owner of this house settled abroad and hardly lived here, so the atmosphere of life is a little lighter." Hiroshi Hashimoto opened the door and took out two pairs of slippers at the entrance.

"But the corresponding living facilities are all complete and relatively new, which is also one of the advantages."

As a detached house, the conditions of this house can be said to be very good. Lin Chiyu followed behind and walked around, feeling very satisfied.

"It has been unoccupied for a long time. Although our company usually sends people to maintain it, the cleaning work is still quite heavy if you want to move in. Of course, we can also provide paid housekeeping services."

The rooms on the first floor are mainly distributed at the back. After entering the entrance, what comes into view is the spacious living room. The carpets, sofas, chandeliers and other decorations all look very valuable.

The study and piano room are also on the first floor. Several rooms have glass windows of appropriate sizes, through which you can see the scenery in the yard.

The second floor is the living room and kitchen-dining room, and there is a small attic above that can be used to store sundries.

After Hashimoto Hiroshi looked at Rin Chiyu from top to bottom, he followed behind and said, "The owners of this house are a very kind old couple. They gave the house to us to rent out so that it wouldn't be empty for too long, so they asked us to rent it out for two years."

After looking at Lin Chiyu and not getting the expected reaction, he continued, "This type of house is not cheap to begin with, and even fewer tenants can afford it after the lease is extended. I also decided to look at this house according to your instructions, Mr. Lin..."

"Have you brought the contract? You can sign it now."

A cold voice interrupted the chatter of the real estate agent. Hashimoto Hiroshi widened his eyes in surprise and took out the lease contract from his briefcase with an excited look on his face.

"I brought it. It's right here."

The deposit plus commission for this trip was a full 500,000 yen, which was equivalent to his sales performance for more than a month. I thought it was unlikely that such a young guy would be able to successfully negotiate this deal.

After sending Hashimoto Hiroshi away and booking a housekeeping cleaning service, Rin Shakuha began to work on other arrangements.

The first thing is to arrange an encounter with Kudo Shinichi. After all, no one knows when the plot will begin, and when he shrinks into Conan, he will no longer live in Kudo's house.

He casually threw a piece of candy and started chewing it, then he sorted out his thoughts.

The next step is to build a good relationship with Dr. Agasa, as he has been coveting the doctor's inventions for a long time.

In addition, the core of the future plot, "Miyano Shiho", will be reduced to "Haibara Ai" and live in the doctor's house, and the red side's backup hero Akai Shuichi will also live in Kudo's house under the pseudonym Okiya Subaru in the near future.

With this calculation, it seems like I have moved into the Red Square Crystal in advance?

As luck would have it, just as he was thinking about how to meet Kudo, a strong shout came from next door.

"Shinichi! Are you planning on being late again?!"

Rin Chiyu pushed open the gate and looked out, only to see a high school girl standing in front of Kudo's house. Her bangs were so long that from a distance she looked like a long horn.

Oh, this should be the legendary Ran Maoli who has both strength and speed.

Soon, Kudo Shinichi, with messy hair, opened the door and scratched his head guiltily, "How, how is it possible? I went to bed early because of this."

"It's almost 10 o'clock, and you still look sleepy. Who would believe me? Go wash up!"

"Yes Yes!"

The "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era" smiled awkwardly and nodded, then immediately turned back.

"Really? You don't have any sense of dating at all."

Mao Lilan had a sad face and was mumbling something. Soon, she noticed Rin Shakuha's gaze and was startled.

"Oh, sorry, did I disturb you?"

He shook his head and gave a kind smile, "I just heard some noise and came out to check what was going on."

"I see. It's all Shinichi's fault. He's so lazy."

In fact, Lin Chiyu had another question he wanted to ask at this time, but he didn't say it in the end.

Yesterday, the famous detective was out solving a case all day, and today he has to go out on a date again. Are there no classes at Teitan High School?

These two days are working days!

Haven’t you seen that Hiroshi Hashimoto, this office worker, is still at work?

"I'm Rin Shakuha, who just moved in next door to Kudo. If you're familiar with Kudo, I hope you can take care of me."

Looking at the "Shinomiya" on the doorplate that had not been changed yet, Rin Chiyu said in a gentle tone.

"Ah, I'm Ran Mouri, who lives in Go-chome. I grew up with Shinichi, so please give me your guidance."

I don’t know if it was because she forgot to introduce herself or because her interaction with Kudo Shinichi was seen by others, but Mouri Ran’s face suddenly became much redder.

"Well, Miss Maori, I hope you enjoy your date."

Rin Shakuha, who had been distracted by the noise in the next room, realized that Kudo Shinichi was about to come out, so he deliberately ended the conversation at a delicate moment and pretended to go back.

"Thank you, thank you..."

As soon as Kudo Shinichi went out, he saw Mao Li Ran talking to the next door with a shy look on her face, and he was confused.

"Lan, who are you talking to?"

"It's Mr. Rin who lives next door to you."

Next door to me?

Isn’t it a family with the surname Shigong?

Wait, Mr. Rin?

Kudo Shinichi's face changed, and he quickly ran out of his house and grabbed the door that Rin Shakuha was about to close.

"Why are you here, you guy?"

Mao Lilan looked at Kudo Shinichi's reaction in confusion, "Shinichi, have you ever had any conflict with Mr. Rin?"

He didn't answer. His reaction to wrongly identifying this man as the murderer at the crime scene yesterday had already made him wary. Besides, who would use those words to describe their knowledge of a corpse?

Lin Chiyu thought to herself that she had taken the bait, but on the surface she remained calm: "Because I just moved here."

"The family living here is called Shigong, right? From what I've seen, they don't need any money at all, so how could they sell the house? Tell me! What did you do to them?"

What the hell, are you a little too arbitrary as a detective... Wait!

Lin Chiyu was secretly complaining that this kid had never experienced a beating and his reasoning was not mature enough, but he suddenly realized something.

He looked at the "confused black and white sugar" lying in the mailbox in disbelief.

No way, this is what you call "the credibility of the truth is slightly reduced"?

What prisoner reserve?

Lin Chiyu felt a little tired and just made a few casual rebuttals to get by.

"Hey, great detective, just because I have enough money doesn't mean I have to live here forever. You don't suspect that I broke into your house just to get close to you, do you?"

Kudo Shinichi calmed down a bit, "Then why did you move out of nowhere, and just happened to move next door to me?"

"You know the environment of my previous place, and thanks to you, many people are spreading rumors that I'm a murderer. How can I continue to live there?" Rin Chiyu rolled his eyes at the detective who made a mistake in his reasoning, and Kudo Shinichi could only laugh awkwardly.

"Besides, I didn't even know you lived here. It was just a coincidence. If you don't believe me, go ask the agent."

This is a lie.

But Kudo believed it.

"Yeah, that's right. I'm sorry, Mr. Rin. It seems I misunderstood you for the second time."

Although he said this, Lin Chiyu knew that this guy actually still had doubts in his heart, but he just hid it and didn't say it.

Taking advantage of the effect of "confusing black and white sugar", he told the reasons he had prepared long ago.

"And the question you asked me yesterday was just a slip of the tongue. I used to be addicted to detective novels, and I often looked up information specifically to test whether a method was reasonable. The so-called observation only refers to reading the information, not really observing the corpse."

Kudo believed it again.

"I see."

So you would check whether the method of murder is reasonable.

Rinshakuha was satisfied when he saw that Kudo's doubts had been resolved, so he started to drive people away.

"Okay, I won't disturb your date, young people. Miss Mori is getting a little impatient waiting." He smiled and teased. Kudo turned around when he heard the voice, and Mori Ran forced a smile.

"Ah, it's almost ten o'clock, Lan, let's go!"

Watching the two of them leave fighting and making noise, Lin Chiyu turned around and went back to the house.

The direction they were heading was Dorobiga Paradise.

Tonight is the night when Edogawa Conan is born.

A light laugh was heard, and Lin Chiyu stroked the gold-rimmed glasses in his hand with an inexplicable expression.
