At the strong request of the Mumu Police Department, Qin Zhibo described the case to him that had been arranged in advance.
However, it is just an oral description without actual demonstration, so it is difficult for Mu Mu's IQ and brain capacity to understand it at once.
Moreover, the mechanism used by the yellow-haired man is quite complicated. It is a motor wrapped with wires and a poster pedal...
"Um……"
Mumu held his chin up and groaned, "In other words, the murderer has burned himself in the fire, right?"
Qin Zhibo: "..."
Okay, I spent a long time using my words to understand this sentence.
But if you think about it from another perspective, Mumu is indeed a leader, he is good at summarizing!
"Yes, you can understand it that way."
"Officer Memu, can we go back and rest first? It's already very late now..."
Mu Mu looked at Qin Zhibo, whose face was already showing fatigue, then looked at his watch, then turned to look at the fire in the villa, knowing that the fire would definitely not be extinguished in a short time.
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to take you back."
"After you have rested, don't forget to come to the Metropolitan Police Department to take notes."
Mu Mu glanced at everyone including Qin Zhibo. Except for the man with glasses, the fat man, and the doctor man who had been sent to the hospital first, everyone else's records were indispensable.
After all, three dead people including the murderer appeared at once this time, and the scene was destroyed. The records of these people will be the only way to restore the case.
…
In the end, Qin Zhibo did not let Mu Mu's men send him back.
After all, I rented a car and had to drive it back to the dealership anyway, so I happened to take Kuroba Kaito and Koizumi Anko back on the way.
However, the road to Ekoda Town would take dozens of minutes longer, so Koizumi Anko could only call her valet to pick him up.
Along the way, the three of them remained silent.
Kuroba Kaito rested his chin on one hand and stared blankly at the black dragon flying past the car window.
He was offline most of the time tonight, so it didn't bother him.
Koizumi Anko, who has always been an elegant person, also became unusually silent. She sat in the back seat with her head lowered, and occasionally glanced at Kuroba Kaito in the front passenger seat.
And Qin Zhibo was indeed tired, so tired that he didn't want to talk.
Tonight is not only a normal case reasoning, the second half also involves maintaining high-intensity operations and contacting the evil god.
But fortunately, Koizumi Anko's reversal technique at the beginning still played a certain role, and the God of Witch Sabbat did not come in full glory.
Otherwise, the outcome of tonight is still unknown.
Recalling what "Hirazan" said, what Qin Zhibo cared about the most was that sentence - I signed a contract with ***** and we will not kill the seeds left by each other in this world.
This sentence contains a lot of information.
Nyarlathotep left a seed in this world.
An unknown existence also left a seed in this world.
The contract between the two established that they would not take action against each other's seeds.
This is a bit like in online novels. When the secret realm trial starts, the big families will agree with each other that the elder family monsters will not take action, and the younger generations will fight fiercely.
And it is very likely that he has been selected as a "representative" by a certain existence, which is the "seed" in Naiya's mouth.
The reason why Qin Zhibo is so sure is because last time he was cursed by voodoo and his life was in danger. He even saw the god of death in voodoo, Baron Samedi, who was also one of the incarnations of Nyarlathotep.
.
But there was indeed a force that stopped Baron Samedi.
A dead hand, and a black hand.
The dead hand with pale skin was obviously weaker than Baron Samedi and could not completely stop Samedi.
Qin Zhibo has always had speculations about this power.
That's the King in Yellow.
Due to the existence of system tasks, Qin Zhibo had seen the image of the King in Yellow in various ways.
In addition to the ragged yellow robe and the pale mask covering his face, the King in Yellow also has a feature that most people ignore.
That is, there is nothing empty under the yellow clothes, there is indeed a human-like body inside.
There was no sign of life on the body, and occasionally tentacles instead of human hands could be seen sticking out of the body.
Therefore, the body inside the yellow clothes is probably a cover-up used by the King in Yellow Clothes.
But if the power of the Dead Man's Hand really comes from the King in Yellow, then it means that Nyarlathotep's power is greater than Hastur, the King in Yellow.
There were also differences between the gods of old.
The Black Hand, who later joined the tug-of-war, felt that it matched the strength of Baron Samedi.
It was probably after this time that Nyarlathotep had to sign a contract with a certain entity not to take action again.
If you are really chosen by "a certain existence", can you think that you are the "chosen one"?
Since he is the chosen one, it makes more sense to travel to this world and have a system.
And his task seems to be to compete with another "chosen person".
Nyarlathotep uses "Chaos and Order" to summarize the competitive relationship between the two "Chosen Ones".
And as the God of Thousand Faces, He stalks the chaos, so the people he chooses naturally represent "chaos".
He represents the opposite force, called "Order".
order……
Qin Zhibo does not think that he is very orderly and often does not follow the routine.
But I was still chosen...
As for who was chosen, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but think about the other gods he had come into contact with so far, and maybe the clues were there.
Hastur, the King in Yellow, whose power is inferior to Nyarlathotep, seems to be eliminated.
The toad god Tsathoggua, a statue-like lazy god who cares nothing about anything other than Enkai, can also be ruled out.
The sleeping sea god Cthulhu is the god worshiped by the deep divers who are marine creatures. But if Cthulhu is his boss, why do the deep divers attack him?
Also, when there was no [Fear in a Bottle] before, seawater would make one's body feel nauseated and nauseated. It really didn't behave like someone chosen by Cthulhu should behave.
In addition, there are some gods who have a weak sense of existence and very little information.
For example: the Spider God in Tottori Prefecture, Jus Tragon in Yatōgamiura City, Gatanotoa in Nishitama City, and the Night Devil in Las Vegas.
Judging intuitively, these gods should have little to do with me.
Are there any others?
Qin Zhibo fell into thinking, because it was true that a long time passed, at least in his own sense of time.
Suddenly, Qin Zhibo's eyes flickered, and another god appeared in his mind.
I don't know this god myself, but I am very close to him.
Because in the empty room on the third floor of the office, there is a magic circle painted on the floor by the original owner.
Qin Zhibo once copied the magic array and found Koizumi Hongzi to identify a small number of elements on the magic array.
It says "the transcendent", "the key to the door", "the one who unites all things".
What if the original owner of the body is also a believer of this god?
So, is it because the original owner used magic that he traveled to this world?
The key is that in the understanding of Koizumi Hongzi and the manservant, the One who unites all things is the maker of the order of time and space and the laws of nature in the universe.
It itself represents "order".
His power is also superior to that of the God of Witches and Sabbat.
Of course, from a mortal perspective, the God of Witches and Sabbat is definitely not as powerful as the maker of the laws of the universe.
Perhaps the "order" Nyarlathotep talks about is the unity of all things.
The reason why he was chosen by the All-Unioning One is probably because the original owner used the magic circle related to the All-Unioning One.
What about Nyarlathotep’s chosen son?
Is this person also a time traveler?
Or are they indigenous to this world?
If he is the chosen one, he should also have special powers bestowed by gods, right?
Just like the system I own...
Qin Zhibo didn't know who this person was who "opened a cheat" like him.
But there is no doubt that this person will be the most powerful opponent he has ever encountered in this world.
…
Zhibo Detective Agency.
When Qin Zhibo drove the Mazda 525 slowly, Koizumi Hongzi's valet had already parked the Maybach on the side of the road and was waiting.
Kuroba Kaito still has to live with his "father", so only Koizumi Anko returns to Ekoda Town alone.
Qin Zhibo parked the car behind the Maybach, and the valet immediately came over and opened the door for Koizumi Hongzi.
"Lord Hongzi..."
Koizumi Anko stepped out of the car, and the valet thoughtfully handed her a blanket to block the cold morning air.
Putting on the blanket, Koizumi Anko did not leave immediately, but turned to look at Kuroba Kaito who lowered the window in the front row.
“Have a nice trip~”
Kuroba Kaito smiled and waved to Koizumi Anko, still looking so naughty.
However, Koizumi Hongzi changed her previous aloof demeanor, and her eyes were filled with one part resentment, three parts indescribable tenderness, and two parts strength.
She looked at Kuroba Kaito and said calmly: "You stay in my body, I will find a way to deal with it..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present stared.
Especially the valet next to him didn't know what was going on. He quickly looked up at Kuroba Kaito in the car and shouted.
"You brat! What did you do to my Lord Hongzi?!"
Kuroba Kaito also had a question mark on his face, "What did I do? I didn't do anything?"
When Koizumi Hongzi saw that someone had done something bad and refused to admit it, she became a little anxious.
Originally, when something like this happened, it was difficult to hold back tears along the way.
"Don't think about giving it away, we have already kissed! I will be pregnant next!"
"Ah?"×2
Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito were stunned at the same time. After their thinking was sluggish for a few seconds, they finally remembered what Koizumi Anko said.
"Haha! You are talking about kissing~" Qin Zhibo explained with a smile, "Kissing will not conceive a child. Who told you that kissing will conceive a child?"
"If you can get pregnant by kissing, can't you also get pregnant by eating vegetables on the same plate?"
Kuroba Kaito also breathed a long sigh of relief, "Huh... give me a big shock..."
Just when Koizumi Anko said she was pregnant with his child, Kuroba Kaito's chest became wet.
"But……"
Koizumi Hongzi's eyes were slightly confused, and then her mind suddenly cleared, recalling her mother's teachings when she was a child.
"But mother said that as long as a man and a woman kiss, they will get pregnant?"
Qin Zhibo: "..."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Hongzi’s mother deceived Hongzi so miserably...
At this time, the manservant on the side also cleared his mind, his expression and tone returned to calmness, and explained: "This is because Lord Hongzi's mother wants you to keep a distance from men, so I can only say this."
"Because the thing that makes a witch shed tears most easily is love..."
The manservant's words revealed the witch's mission.
In the legend of witches, the first witch in the world was betrayed by her lover and sent to the stake.
Before she died, she made an eternal curse that all witches in future generations would not shed tears, otherwise they would lose all their magic power.
In order to maintain their magic power forever, future generations of witches must learn to close their emotions, and regard improving their magic power and learning magic as their lifelong goals.
All the witches of the Red Magic Clan have been like this.
Because of this, Koizumi Hongzi was not only instilled in the concept of being absolutely self-centered since childhood, but was also not allowed to watch any love-themed novels, movies, etc.
Being banned from this source of knowledge, one will naturally believe that "kissing will lead to pregnancy".
After listening to the valet's words, Koizumi Hongzi's eyes were complicated and her head gradually dropped.
She thought of Yahara Huang, who had lost his magic power, and how helpless he was when facing the death of his lover.
If she hadn't cried at that time and still had magic power, she might still be able to resurrect her lover.
However, she still cried.
If she doesn't cry, she will have no one to resurrect.
If she cries, she will have no magic power to resurrect the object.
What a stupid joke...
Koizumi Hongzi smiled with relief, then raised her head and said in her usual arrogant tone: "Of course I know about this!"
"I just wanted to test you, but I didn't expect you to take it seriously~"
"Hohohoho~"
Amid that burst of signature laughter, Koizumi Hongzi's back gradually faded away, and she got into the Maybach in front.
During this process, Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito just watched and tried their best to restrain the urge to speak.
Because in the corner of Hongzi's eyes, they had already seen a trace of crystal clear light.
After watching the Maybach drive away for a long time, Kuroba Kaito slowly spoke.
"Sometimes, I feel that Hongzi is quite pitiful..."
"Um."
…
Returning to the third floor of the office, Qin Zhibo stretched his waist.
I finally got home and could have a good rest.
Qin Zhibo shook his aching head, wishing he could lie down on the bed without even brushing his teeth.
If there were no outsiders at home, maybe he would really do this.
But in front of Kuroba Kaito, he decided to simply wash up and fight quickly.
But just as he was taking off his clothes, he was startled by the squeaking sound coming from his trouser pockets.
Putting his hand into his pocket, it turned out to be the little white mouse that had been resurrected by Yayuan Huang.
