Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Professor Agasa immediately said worriedly, "Is it that dangerous? Shinichi, why don't you go abroad to hide for a while?"
"No, Doctor, I can't hide it. I was going to keep this a secret, I wouldn't even tell my parents or Ran, but I trust you're the most discreet person and won't tell anyone, so I'll tell you."
You have no idea that you almost killed me last time, which has forced me to live on the run. At the same time, the terrorist organization I'm trying to deal with is actually an international terrorist organization. They are conducting research on biological weapons and want to destroy the world.
So I'm currently helping the Metropolitan Police Department, secretly, in a clandestine way, with the goal of infiltrating this terrorist organization whose codenames are all alcoholic beverages, finding their mastermind, and locating the place where they store and develop biological weapons.
Then the coordinates were reported to Interpol, allowing the powerful military to bomb and destroy all the bases of these terrorist organizations.
I've already joined Group 0 and am a member. Rei Furuya is our group leader, and to keep things confidential, I've adopted a code name, "Top Scholar Red." To avoid being exposed, I generally don't use my real name.
Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei say that these secrets were not even told to the Kudo couple or Ran, but only to him, Professor Agasa was trembling with emotion and exclaimed:
"Shinichi, don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you. Even if your parents and Ran ask, I won't tell."
You placed me above them all, and today you didn't see anyone else but came to see me. I'm so touched. I never imagined I held such an important place in your heart, Shinichi, I…”
Seeing the excited Professor Agasa, Jiang Chengbei silently patted his shoulder, thinking to himself:
Have you ever thought that the reason I didn't go to see them but only came to see you is because I was worried that I couldn't fool them, and that you were the easiest to fool?
After comforting the easily moved old man, Professor Agasa, Jiang Chengbei left him one of several cell phones from his system's inventory, instructing him to write "Top Scholar Red" in the phone's contact name, not "Shinichi," to avoid leaking secrets.
After leaving his contact information and reminding Dr. Agasa again to keep his words and his return a secret, Jiang Chengbei pulled up his hood and left furtively.
Seeing how cautious Jiang Chengbei was even when leaving, Dr. Agasa suddenly felt that his mission was sacred and glorious. He then stopped taking a nap and immediately went to the basement to get busy, trying to make the gadgets that Jiang Chengbei wanted as soon as possible.
After leaving Professor Agasa's house, Jiang Chengbei immediately transformed into a little chubby bird and flew towards the sea.
Jiang Chengbei didn't want to waste a single second of his time transforming into Shinichi Kudo. He only had 24 hours at most, so he wanted to make the most of his time and earn as many benefits as possible.
Guided by the GPS purchased from the system store, Jiang Chengbei quickly flew to Moonshadow Island and landed as an adult.
A young man with short, bright pink hair, a fitted bright pink outfit, a handsome but ordinary face, and bright pink sunglasses appeared in a deserted spot on Moonshadow Island.
Jiang Chengbei had previously scouted out Moon Shadow Island, so he quickly found the largest hotel on the island with his generic face and checked in using the name Asagi Seishi.
The reason Jiang Chengbei dressed so flamboyantly in Osaka, dressed in deathly Barbie pink from head to toe, is, of course, because he is currently playing the cross-dressing Asagi Narumi.
Asahi Narumi is already letting everyone down by not wearing women's clothing. If he dressed more normally and more manly, would he still be called Asahi Narumi?
So Jiang Chengbei dyed his hair a deathly Barbie pink after transforming into Shinichi Kudo, and changed all his clothes and belongings into a deathly Barbie pink outfit.
After registering at the hotel and pretending to put a travel bag in his room, Jiang Chengbei, with the face of Shinichi Kudo and the name Asano Minami, wandered around Full Moon Shadow Island dressed in a deathly Barbie pink outfit.
Whenever Jiang Chengbei met someone, he would always explain himself and inquire about the matter of Aso Keiji from back then, telling everyone that his eldest son had returned and was currently investigating the cause of death of the Aso family all over the world.
Jiang Chengbei idly repeated his own words all the way, and soon after, he wandered to Asai Narumi's small clinic, where he told the beautiful doctor there what he had just said countless times.
After hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, the beautiful doctor Asai Narumi was completely stunned:
If this effeminate pervert in front of me is indeed Asagi, then who is this cross-dressing master?
Why would he impersonate himself? Did those people notice him and then hire someone to impersonate him in order to lure him out and then eliminate him completely?
Huh? Why does this person's face look like Shinichi Kudo's?
Yes, that's right. If you remove his exaggerated Barbie pink sunglasses and Barbie pink suit, and dye his hair black, and just look at his face shape, he is Shinichi Kudo, who has been famous for a long time, but whose reasoning ability is not as good as that of an elementary school student and who has been defeated by a child many times.
Asai Narumi felt a little regretful when she thought about how she had just sent Shinichi Kudo a notice and a commission fee of 50 yen this morning.
In the notice, he wrote something vague and only wrote the name of Keiji Aso. But a short while later, Shinichi Kudo impersonated him and came to his door with his name on his mind. This high school detective is too amazing!
If this high school student, who has been defeated by an elementary school student multiple times, is this good, then how terrifying must that elementary school student be!
If I had known that the famous detective was this capable, I wouldn't have sent out the notice two weeks in advance.
If I had known that Shinichi Kudo would be so proactive in solving cases, it would have been enough to send the notice on the day of the full moon.
Looking at Shinichi Kudo, who was dressed in strange clothes and clearly trying to hide his well-known, ordinary face, and who had also found out that he had a fetish for cross-dressing, Asai Narumi didn't know how to disguise herself anymore.
Should we fight to the death, even if Shinichi Kudo asks, and still deny that we are Asano Minoru, and at the same time deny that we want to avenge our family on the night of the full moon and kill those three people?
No, even if I stubbornly deny it, they've already investigated and found out that I have a cross-dressing fetish and even dressed up as the effeminate detective Shinichi Kudo. It's not easy to fool me, is it?
Just as Asai Narumi was eager to speak, wanting to take the initiative to tell his story, admit that he had the idea of murder, and at the same time wanting to give up this plan in front of the detective, he saw that the "Kudo Shinichi" in front of him, after introducing himself and saying the same set of words, wiggled his butt and left.
Seeing that "Shinichi Kudo" ignored him completely, didn't ask him a single question, and just left, Asai Narumi felt that he had wasted his 50 yen; this famous detective wasn't worth the price.
Of course, if Conan knew what Asai Narumi was thinking, he would definitely slam his fist on the table, glare at Asai Narumi, and say:
"I'll do it for free, for free! Don't ruin my reputation outside. I'm not some third-rate detective who'd do it for a few stinking bucks!"
Jiang Chengbei was unaware that the cross-dressing master in the small clinic was currently seething with hatred for his irresponsible behavior. Instead, he continued his provocative actions, asking Man Yueyingdao about the massacre of Aso Keiji's family twelve years ago.
Jiang Chengbei's ostentatious behavior quickly reached the ears of Yueying Island's richest man, Kawashima Hideo, village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji, and unemployed vagrant Nishimoto Ken, among others.
When a man claiming to be Asagi Seishi suddenly appeared on the island and was inquiring about the family massacre that happened 20 years ago, the group immediately realized that this was a serious matter and that Yueying might not be able to remain calm any longer. So they quickly contacted each other and gathered together to discuss how to deal with Asagi Seishi.
Chapter 94 Jiang Chengbei: I have a great summoning spell, Hattori Heiji, come out, you're needed here to take the bullets.
Using Shinichi Kudo's face and the name Asano Minami, Jiang Chengbei wandered around Moon Shadow Island before finally being invited to Kuroiwa Tatsuji's house by Hideo Kawashima and Kuroiwa Tatsuji in a secluded spot.
Because Tsukikage Island is a remote island, not in the bustling downtown area of Tokyo where land is incredibly valuable, and because Kuroiwa Tatsuji is also a major drug dealer, his house is very large and nicely decorated.
Before they came to find Jiang Chengbei, they had already discussed their plan. So instead of coming up with threats and killings, they were very enthusiastic, treating Jiang Chengbei like a good brother of Aso and a good elder.
When Asagi left Moonshadow Island, he was still an innocent child. They didn't know how much Jiang Chengbei knew, so they pretended to be good people first, and after getting some basic information, they made their plans.
Jiang Chengbei didn't expose them as the murderers of the Aso family. Instead, after hearing their self-introductions, he called them "uncle" and "aunt" without any suspicion of them.
Under the warm hospitality of Kuroiwa Tatsuji and his group, and with just a little prompting, Jiang Chengbei, like a recent college graduate, poured out his entire story like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.
Soon, everyone learned that Jiang Chengbei's character, Asagi, was actually a 26-year-old medical graduate student at the University of Tokyo. He had been frail and sickly since childhood, receiving treatment at a hospital in Tokyo and frequently hospitalized.
Jiang Chengbei had already scouted the place beforehand and thoroughly investigated Asai Narumi's background. Now that he was blaming it all on himself, he could just spout off without thinking.
Jiang Chengbei's words all matched up, so Hei Yan Chenci and the others quickly confirmed that the person in front of them, Asagi, was indeed real. They exchanged glances and then began to probe Jiang Chengbei's purpose for coming here:
“Nephew Aso, we are all your father’s closest friends, brothers who grew up together. Aso’s children are our children.”
"Nephew Aso, what's the main reason you've returned to Moonshadow Island this time? If there's anything we can do to help, just ask. We uncles and elders will definitely help you without hesitation."
Seeing them pat their chests and make guarantees, Jiang Chengbei, as if he completely believed them, said:
"Thank you, uncles. I came back this time to investigate the murderer who killed my whole family 12 years ago. I must find him, bring him to justice, and avenge my family."
Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, the people present exchanged glances and then spoke one after another:
“Nephew, your father went mad, killed his family, and then set himself on fire. How could there be a murderer? Nephew, you must be joking.”
"Yes, yes, your father has a mental illness, that's why he went crazy. We, as his good friends, are ashamed that we didn't discover it in advance. We still regret it to this day."
“That’s right, my dear nephew, don’t follow in your father’s footsteps. Our transportation here is inconvenient, and there are no hospitals. Once you fall ill, you won’t even have a chance to be saved. My dear nephew, you should go back to Tokyo. There are many large hospitals there.”
Hearing their words, Jiang Chengbei's face turned cold, and he sneered, saying:
"Uncles and elders, to be honest, my mentor often performs autopsies for the Metropolitan Police Department, so he has some connections with the department."
After learning about my family's situation, he specifically asked someone to check the case files from that year and consulted experienced criminal police officers. They all told us that there was something wrong with the case from 12 years ago; it was definitely not suicide, but homicide.
If I ever find out who killed my entire family, I, Ma Sheng, swear on this very spot that I will pay with my blood and wipe out the entire murderer's family!
Seeing Jiang Chengbei's resolute tone, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, Kawashima Hideo, and the others exchanged glances, then their eyes turned cold as they looked at Jiang Chengbei.
Kid, you've chosen the path to hell instead of the path to heaven. Well then, you're going to live here today, don't go back!
Unemployed Ken Nishimoto wanted to kill Jiang Chengbei right then and there, and Jiang Chengbei even received 1 kill coin in the system because of him, but in the end he was stopped by the other two old foxes.
They secretly gestured to Nishimoto Ken, suggesting that they hire someone to kill Jiang Chengbei after he left Moonshadow Island. After all, Jiang Chengbei had been so flamboyant before, and if he died mysteriously on Moonshadow Island, it would cause considerable trouble for their drug trafficking business on the island if his classmates and teachers investigated. It was better to deal with him after he left.
Seeing that they hadn't made a move, Jiang Chengbei continued to fan the flames, saying:
"Since you uncles are all my father's good friends and brothers who grew up together, I won't hide it from you anymore. I've already thought of a way to find the murderer."
"What method?" Upon hearing that Jiang Chengbei already had a plan, Kawashima Hideo immediately pressed for details, wanting to know himself and his enemy to ensure victory in every battle.
“Nephew, tell us your methods, and we’ll help you think about them and come up with some ideas. It’s our way of doing our part to find the murderer who killed Keiji.”
"My method is very simple: I send a letter of request to Heiji Hattori, the famous high school detective in Osaka, and slip 5 yen into the letter. He will definitely come to Tsukikage Island to investigate the case."
Uncles, you live in such a remote area that you may not know or have heard of the name Hattori Heiji, but I'll tell you all about him here.
Jiang Chengbei stopped, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then said with a smug look:
"Although Heiji Hattori is a high school student, he has solved more than 2000 cases since his debut and has never lost. There is no case in the world that he cannot solve."
Most importantly, he is the only son of Hattori Heizo, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters. Whenever Hattori Heiji comes to Tsukikage Island to investigate a case and something goes wrong, Hattori Heizo will raze Tsukikage Island to the ground.
I hired him to solve a case from 12 years ago. Not only can he uncover the truth and find the culprit, but I can also use Hattori Heiji's injury or death to wipe out the culprit's entire family.
After Jiang Chengbei finished speaking with murderous intent, his Ke Xue Mall gained another 2 Kill Coins.
At the same time, the murderous intent in the eyes of Kawashima Hideo and the other two was almost impossible to hide. If the timing hadn't been wrong, they would have immediately killed this outspoken man who wanted to slaughter their entire family.
Of course, among the three, Ken Nishimoto, who was the first to have murderous intent, is now the one with the least murderous intent. After all, he is all alone, so killing him is no different from killing his whole family.
Although they desperately wanted to kill Jiang Chengbei, Kawashima Hideo and the others held back and instead raised a question, saying:
“Nephew, it’s not that I doubt you, but what you’re saying is really outrageous.”
Why would the son of such a big shot as Hattori Heiji accept your request, and even travel all the way here just for a mere 5 yen, to help you investigate a case from 12 years ago?
5 yen wouldn't even cover his travel expenses to get here, how could he possibly come?
If my dear nephew is short on funds, how about we pool our money and give him a larger commission fee?
Seeing their suspicious looks, Jiang Chengbei still wore a smug expression and boasted:
"It's normal that my uncles, who have always lived in a poor and remote place like Moonshadow Island, don't know the wonders of the outside world."
"Let me tell you, Heiji Hattori doesn't charge for taking cases; it's all free. Whether he takes a case or not depends entirely on his availability, how close the case is to him, and how convenient it is for him."
Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Kawashima Hideo's eyes lit up, and he said:
“It’s quite far from Osaka, and it’s inconvenient to come and go. I don’t think a high school student like him, who has to go to school every day and take college entrance exams, would have the free time to come all this way to investigate a case from 12 years ago.”
Seeing the hopeful look in Kawashima Hideo's eyes, Jiang Chengbei gave a confident, cold laugh:
"That's why I'm putting 5 yen in the letter of authorization. Heiji Hattori helps with the investigation for free, and he hasn't even started the investigation yet, so how could he possibly accept money?"
So, given his personality, even if he didn't go to school, he would still come and return the 5 yen to me.
When he arrives, this reasoning fanatic, the kind of person who can't tear himself away from a case, will find out that there's something fishy about the 12-year-old family annihilation case right next to him. Even if you try to get rid of him, he won't leave.
"He's a deduction fanatic, a delusional teenager; he won't die content until he gets to the bottom of this."
