The only one who can create the current situation is Mi-Go.
But Qin Zhibo couldn't directly tell Conan about the existence of alien creatures like Mi-Go through verbal descriptions.
Mi-Go is an alien creature that looks like a lobster but is actually a mushroom and can disguise itself as a human?
This is too abstract.
Let’s take it one step at a time...
Conan on the side did not know that Qin Zhibo still had secrets hidden in his heart.
He has slowly accepted the concept of parallel universes.
The key is that it doesn't matter if you don't accept it. The facts are right in front of you. Except for the possibility of parallel universes, there is no other explanation for the strange things that have happened so far.
At this time, Japanese reality TV shows were not too crazy.
"Let's collect information about this world first..."
Qin Zhibo and Conan looked at each other.
"Um."
…
The next day, morning.
Qin Zhibo opened his sleepy eyes and slowly got up from the desk.
Next to the desk, there is information that I browsed online last night and has been printed out with a printer.
Next to the information, Conan was still sleeping soundly, wearing a warm black suit.
Although he has a mature mind, Conan's body is like that of a child after all, and he is not very capable of staying up late.
At around one o'clock in the middle of the night last night, Conan gradually couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on the table.
Qin Zhibo didn't want to cause too many changes to the Kudo family, so he just took off his black suit and covered Conan's body.
Not only that, after Qin Zhibo and Conan's discussion last night, in order to avoid the occurrence of "space-time paradox", "butterfly effect", etc., the two outsiders tried their best not to change things in this world.
Conan still can't understand this statement, but Qin Zhibo has seen many movies that change the line of time and space.
"Back to the Future", "The Butterfly Effect", "Chernobyl Exclusion Zone", etc., as long as they are stories involving time and space travel, there have been stories that originally just changed a small thing, someone's life, through time travel.
But his fate changed because of this.
Although this world is destroyed, strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with "outsiders".
But after all, this is a world where "oneself" exists, and it is better to have some morals and ethics.
As for the "paradox of time and space", it means that the "selves" of the two worlds cannot meet each other, otherwise time and space will be "disordered."
Of course, this is the theoretical setting of many time-travel-themed stories, and there is no evidence to prove it.
But applying the previous theory, once two selves in different time and space meet, it will definitely cause a butterfly effect in Conan in this time and space.
Although Conan had a close fight with "Conan" yesterday, he was always wearing a brown paper bag. With "Conan's" character and logical thinking, it is impossible to think that another Conan was sneaking up on him.
So in general, the purpose of their actions in the parallel world this time is to respect the fate of others and find a way back.
After a night of investigation, Qin Zhibo and Conan also discovered some differences between this world and the original world.
Qin Zhibo stood up from his chair, took the information in his hand, and walked slowly to the window.
First of all, black organizations also exist in this world.
This is obvious, after all, "Conan" did not shrink in size for no reason.
But there is no Nine Angels organization in this world. Qin Zhibo searched for a long time but could not find the Nine Angels page.
However, this world has the Haneda Koji case 17 years ago, and the deceased is still Amanda Hughes and Haneda Koji.
There is no Noah's Ark knowledge website in this world, but there has been a "Cocoon" game conference held in Japan, and there have been accidents at the game conference.
A very important difference for Qin Zhibo is that there is no Miskatonic University in this world!
The place name Arkham doesn't even exist!
In the original world, Qin Zhibo was still a top student who graduated from the world's top universities.
When I arrived in this world, I immediately transformed into a high school scholar who had never gone to college.
There was no Miskatonic University, that is, there was no Miskatonic University expedition to Antarctica in 1931, and there was no funding from Amanda Hughes...
Finally, Qin Zhibo came up with a bold hypothesis.
Will there be no mysterious side in this world at all?
If it were just an ordinary mysterious creature, it would be understandable to appear in multiple universe dimensions.
But for an existence comparable to a god like Tsathoggua, he should be a unique existence in the entire universe.
Qin Zhibo could not imagine the scene where countless Tsathogguas were distributed in countless parallel worlds.
If we consider this assumption, this world does not have Tsathoggua, Cthulhu, and Hastur, the King in Yellow, and naturally there will be fewer opportunities for the birth of the mysterious side.
But thinking about it on the other hand, my original world is really the "Chosen One", how come all kinds of evil gods can show up?
But the good news is that although this world seems to have no mysterious side, the magic of the original world still works in this world.
The power of magic is universal, so it cannot be completely confirmed that there is no mystery in this world.
In fact, there is a very simple way to confirm it, which is to directly find the hometown of the witch Koizumi Anko.
If Hongzi says there is a demon, then there is a demon.
If Hongzi says no, then it means no.
Of course, the premise is that Koizumi Anko exists in this world.
However, I don’t know whether Koizumi Anko exists, but Kaitou Kidd does exist.
Kaito Kidd debuted 18 years ago, disappeared 8 years ago, and is now active in Japan after being "resurrected". This resume is exactly the same as that of Kaito Kidd in the original world.
But in this world, the world-recognized most famous Phantom Thief is not Phantom Thief Kidd, but another Phantom Thief.
This person's name is Lupine III.
Qin Zhibo held the information in his hand, which contained some information about Lupine III, or rumors from the world.
Lupine III, male, unknown age, suspected to be of European descent, proficient in multiple languages, smokes, likes to wear green or dark red suits, has super ability to disguise himself, and has a large number of female fans.
The first time he saw these contents, Qin Zhibo thought he had found information about Kaitou Kidd.
Isn't this similar to Kaito Kidd?
Could it be the vest owned by Kidd, the Phantom Thief in this world? The Long Aotian drama of "Both the number one Phantom Thief and the Number Two Phantom Thief in the world are me"...
But after looking at the photos, Qin Zhibo felt that it shouldn't be the case.
In the photos circulating on the Internet, Lupine the Third has darker skin, a crew cut, long sideburns, and a monkey face.
This is obviously not in line with Kuroba Kaito's aesthetics, and it's not even the style of the era.
And the data shows that Lupine III often has two companions around him, one is a swordsman dressed as a ronin, and the other is a man with a hat who often wears a dark blue suit.
However, similar to Kaito Kidd, Lupine the Third is more principled in stealing treasures. Most of the time, he steals the treasures of bad people, and sometimes he helps others, so he is called a "Monster Thief".
The reason why Qin Zhibo investigated the information about Lupine III was because Fujiko Mine, who was to be investigated yesterday, had a close relationship with Lupine III.
Rumor has it that wherever there is Fujiko Mine, Lupine the Third will often appear.
Outsiders speculated that the two were partners, some said they were lovers, and some said Lupine III was Fujiko Mine's suitor.
Fujiko Mine is also very mysterious. Her beauty is well-known among wealthy businessmen and celebrities all over the world, and she has the flavor of a "social butterfly".
But gradually, wealthy businessmen and celebrities discovered that Mine Fujiko was approaching them just for the treasures in their safes, and they gradually became defensive.
However, like Kaitou Kidd and Lupine the Third, Fujiko Mine will change her identity from time to time, making it difficult for people to guard against.
Qin Zhibo looked at the information in his hand and couldn't help but patted his forehead.
If this information is true, Fujiko Mine clearly had her eye on some treasure before abducting Princess Mira.
And behind this, is there the support of Lupine III?
Qin Zhibo has never met Lu Bang III, so he cannot make a conclusion now.
But no matter what these two strange thieves want to steal, they must want to steal something on the land of the Kingdom of Vespania.
Qin Zhibo also investigated the situation in the Kingdom of Vespania.
Not long ago, the queen and prince of the Kingdom of Vespania were both killed, and the current situation in the kingdom was somewhat turbulent.
It is said that the prince accidentally shot the queen as prey while hunting, and committed suicide next to his mother's body out of guilt.
This has led to two voices in the kingdom. One is to support Princess Mira, who has just grown up, to inherit the position of king.
The other is to let the elder Duke Gerard, who is also the queen's brother and uncle of the prince and princess, inherit the throne.
Qin Zhibo is all too familiar with this drama of changing the throne and fighting among heirs.
In addition, someone wanted to assassinate Princess Mila yesterday. Once the princess dies, the heir will undoubtedly be Duke Gilad.
Therefore, this Duke Gilad is definitely not clean.
But for Qin Zhibo, an "outsider", these are insignificant.
The top priority is to rush to the Kingdom of Vesbania as soon as possible, find the Vespania Ore, and then find a way to return to the original world.
It's just that neither Qin Zhibo nor Conan currently has passports or even money. How to travel to the Kingdom of Vespania is a problem.
Fortunately, after finding out Fujiko Mine's identity, Qin Zhibo came up with a bold idea.
Since Fujiko Mine is related to Lupine III, who is wanted by Interpol, she will definitely find a way to avoid being caught by the police.
In addition, now that she took Princess Mila and appeared at the airport to take a plane openly, this was determined to be impossible.
In other words, Fujiko Mine must have a way to sneak across.
Moreover, if Fujiko Mine wants to steal the treasure, he must go to the mainland of the Kingdom of Vespania.
As long as he can find Fujiko Mine and threaten her to call the police, he can gain access to the Kingdom of Vespania.
Without further ado, Qin Zhibo put down the materials in his hand and planned to use the remaining money on his body to buy some breakfast. He would first feed his stomach before he would have the strength to take action.
Just when Qin Zhibo was about to turn around and leave, Conan also woke up.
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's go buy breakfast. Aren't you hungry?"
After being reminded by Qin Zhibo, Conan remembered that he had eaten nothing last night, and his stomach suddenly made a "gurgling" sound in protest.
Conan stood up and suddenly felt the weight on his shoulders. When he turned around, he realized that Qin Zhibo had put his suit on him.
With some gratitude in his heart, he returned the clothes to Qin Zhibo.
"The house next to Dr. Ali's house is so I won't go out to avoid being recognized."
"I'm going to see if our clothes are dry..."
…
Qin Zhibo walked out of Kudo's house alone and gently closed the iron door, trying not to make any noise.
It's now around 7 o'clock in the morning. According to the past, Dr. Ali probably hasn't gotten up yet, but Ai Haihara might have gotten up to make breakfast.
Qin Zhibo passed by the courtyard wall of Dr. Ali's house quickly, and then he remembered that he was not Conan, so why should he hide from people he knew like a thief?
Strictly speaking, I am just an ordinary passerby in Mihua, and no one will recognize me.
Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo straightened his back and walked leisurely to the location of the convenience store in his memory.
When passing by Mima Village, he subconsciously glanced into the yard again.
Of course, it was already confirmed here yesterday. Without Shuichi Akai and Toru Amuro, it would not be possible.
But when I looked again, there was a young man standing in the yard early in the morning, holding a red kettle and watering a piece of land in the corner of the yard.
The young man wore glasses, squinted his eyes, and looked polite.
Are you a tenant here?
But I haven’t seen it in the original world...
The young man in the courtyard also realized that he was being observed, and turned his head to look at Qin Zhibo at the entrance of the courtyard.
The two looked at each other, and Qin Zhibo saw the other person's identity.
Name: Subaru Okiya, male, 27 years old, student...
Okiya Subaru squinted his eyes, opened his lips slightly, and a light seemed to flash between his eyes.
But he still closed his mouth, just smiled, and nodded to Qin Zhibo as a normal greeting.
Qin Zhibo also smiled and nodded, greeted him politely, and continued walking to the convenience store.
But when walking through the Trojan Manor, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but look back and take another look.
I don’t know why, but that person with narrowed eyes seemed to want to say something to himself just now.
Maybe he wanted to say "take your dick off", but for some reason, he didn't say it out in the end.
I guess he is a college student with social anxiety...
…
When he arrived at the convenience store, Qin Zhibo used the 2,000 yen he had left to buy lunch boxes, instant noodles, rice balls, coffee and other things to fill his stomach.
"I'm completely out of money now..."
Qin Zhibo looked at the few coins left in his wallet and couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis in his heart.
In the adult world, having no money is the most dangerous thing.
Although Conan should have money, Qin Zhibo has seen Conan's wallet. He really doesn't have much pocket money. He looks like a primary school student.
If you can't find Fujiko Mine within today, I'm afraid you'll have to drink the northwest wind tomorrow...
Thinking of this, a strong sense of crisis prompted Qin Zhibo to step up his pace and quickly return to Kudo's house.
