After the mission was completed, Shiraishi felt the weight of his body again after floating in the void for a while.
He opened his eyes with some effort and found that he was sitting on the ground, his back hurt and his legs were numb.
Just as he was about to move his hands and feet and stand up, Shiraishi suddenly realized that something was not right.
——Everyone in the living room was actually staring at him with bright eyes and admiration.
"..." Sleeping at the scene of the crime is so eye-catching?
Just as he was a little surprised, Shiraishi suddenly heard "his" voice coming from behind.
The voice concluded with a sigh:
"...This is a tragedy intertwined with lies, misunderstandings and accidents."
What kind of tragic lie is this in the connotation of Fujie Akiyoshi?
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Bai Shi suddenly understood the current situation.
——Needless to say, Conan must have accidentally found himself asleep in the living room before he was equipped with an anesthetic needle, so he secretly borrowed his identity.
The little brat is pretty good at finding every opportunity...
The reasoning of "Sleeping Shiraishi" came to an end after the sentence just now.
Maybe he found out from Shiraishi's movements that he was awake, as a series of footsteps quickly rustled away.
Shiraishi didn't care about Conan. He moved his numb legs and stood up reluctantly.
As soon as I stood firm, I saw the Mumu Police Department approaching.
The police officer patted him on the shoulder and exclaimed: "I didn't expect the truth to be like this. Life is scary. Even if you don't study academics and become a police officer, you will definitely have a bright future!"
Conan hid behind the sofa and stared nervously, worried that Shiraishi, who didn't know anything, would spill the beans.
Just now, I only focused on using his mouth to solve the case, but ignored the subsequent ending...
Thinking of this, Conan felt a little regretful, and decided to help Shiraishi with a few words, or simply use his identity as a child to run over and change the topic.
Unexpectedly, even though Bai Shi had already thought of a way to cause trouble, he was not at a loss or at a loss, nor did he ask "what happened" like a fool.
The young man just said calmly and modestly: "Thank you for your praise. It's all thanks to Teacher Guangtian's good teaching."
"?" The confused one turned into Conan.
After a normal person wakes up and finds that the mystery case has been solved, a man suddenly comes up and praises him, saying that he solved the case... would this be the reaction?!
That’s not right!
Before he could recover, Conan heard Shiraishi say naturally again:
"It's really a pity that he is only in his early twenties. If he had noticed his state of mind when he lost his job and went to see a psychiatrist, he wouldn't have reached this stage... He has to blame others and harm others even if he loses his life.
It’s not good for yourself.”
The topics connected so naturally, it seemed that the one who had just deduced everything was not Conan with the voice changer on, but Shiraishi himself.
This strange situation made Conan's face turn pale.
This person...did he see the truth of the case when he first entered the living room?
Or was he not asleep at all just now, but pretending to be asleep? In fact, he was aware of all his little movements?
"You are hiding here. Why don't you answer me when I call you?"
Mao Lilan, who was looking for him everywhere, wandered behind the sofa and caught a glimpse of a hairy man, and breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Conan's face, squatted down strangely, and pinched his face: "What's wrong, are you scared by the blood? I told you not to come here, but you didn't listen."
"No, no, haha." Conan twitched the corners of his mouth and squeezed out two dry laughs.
...Now, I can only pray that this student named Shiraishi has nothing to do with the man in black.
If he was really pretending to sleep just now, or woke up in the middle and heard everything, then Conan not only showed his flaws, he was simply showing off his whole horse for others to see...
On the other side, Shiraishi caught a glimpse of Conan's expression and felt relieved.
The naughty kid just needs to be scared. In this way, when he needs someone to get an acupuncture in the future, he won't have the idea to target himself.
But to be on the safe side, I’d better buy some turtleneck sweaters to prepare when I go back.
Hmm... buy some more scarves. Seasons change very frequently in this world anyway. It’s definitely not a waste to stock up on more scarves.
Shiraishi leaned on the chair and calmed down for a while. When his legs were no longer numb and the police were finishing their work one after another, he was ready to retreat.
He's not even an eyewitness, he's just here to gather information. He doesn't even need to make a record, it's very easy.
As he walked towards the door, Shiraishi saw Okino Yoko standing in the corner of the living room with her head lowered. Her face with light makeup was a little sad, but more relaxed and relieved.
Looking up and down, Shiraishi felt that Okino Yoko's condition was much better and she didn't look so depressed.
I don’t know whether it was because the case was solved or because after freeing Fujie Akiyoshi’s ghost, she was no longer disturbed by him.
…
After rushing home and locking the door, Shiraishi turned on the light screen and went straight to the taskbar.
There are two tasks hanging inside:
[Complete the part-time job posted by Miyano Akemi]
[Free the wandering souls riddled with resentment][Completed]
If you want to complete the first item, you still need to organize the case records and hand them over to Miyano Akemi.
Shiraishi decided to put this matter to tomorrow.
It's late at night, so of course you should do more happy things.
He clicked on the second task.
The task bar expands and displays rewards. This time there are four:
【100,000 yen】
[[Attack] Bloody Kitchen Knife]
【Milk x5】
【Masked [Details]】
The bloody kitchen knife is easy to understand, it is probably an ordinary weapon.
But milk and mask...
Shiraishi was a little confused and poked [Details].
A row of fireworks suddenly exploded on the screen. After flashing for half a minute, the unfaded fireworks gradually condensed into a few lines of golden text:
[After the assessment, you have successfully met our employment standards with your so-so physique, a fairly normal mind, a still-existing sense of justice, and above-average luck——]
【Congratulations on becoming a formal employee!】
[Wearing the employee-exclusive [mask], you will become the most beautiful guy in the world, and no one can see through your identity]
