MTL - Conan’s World Stand-in-Chapter 39 You don't need to think so clearly about the stand-in messenger
"Then, what I want to know is the current holder of the 'Manuscript Yusaku Kudo's stolen ten years ago'."
Guan Dounan summoned Xiao Hei, and once again regrettably confirmed that Kudo Shinichi could not see the stand-in and activated his ability.
Of course, before that, Kudo Shinichi roughly told Guan Dounan about the content of the novel based on his own memory. It was a case that happened on a high-speed train, but it was stolen halfway through the writing. , and Kudo Shinichi didn't remember what the crime was in that manuscript.
As for other content, such as what kind of manuscript paper was used for the manuscript, whether it was written in Chinese characters, pseudonyms or English, whether it used a pen or a ballpoint pen, and whether the ink used was black or blue. Kudo Shinichi racked his brains to give a "probably right" result.
The ability of [Mirroring] was activated, and Xiao Hei, who was standing beside him like a statue, moved, dashing vigorously towards Guan Dounan and merged with him.
[The drawer was opened, and a thin man wearing glasses took out an old manuscript from it with his hands wearing silk gloves, and read it solemnly. 】
"Well, although I didn't get the detailed location, at least I know what the person holding the manuscript looks like now."
Blinking his eyes, Guan Dounan looked at Kudo Shinichi, who was looking forward to it, and gave such an answer.
"Can you draw that person's face?" Kudo Shinichi handed over the paper and pen he had prepared earlier, "Judging from your technique of imitating that toothpaste painting yesterday, it should be easy, right?"
Yesterday Guan Dounan called him to the bathroom and showed him the "restored" toothpaste painting, which was almost identical to the toothpaste painting he saw in the storage room later.
"Uh... I try my best?"
Guan Dounan doesn't actually have such superb painting skills. He just kept the toothpaste painting in mind, including the length and thickness of each stroke and the thickness of each toothpaste, and then worked hard to restore the toothpaste painting. .
On the premise that you can completely remember every detail of the original painting, the only factor that will affect the result of the toothpaste painting is that the person who paints does not tremble - the toothpaste painting is not so much a "painting" as it is "manual". And Guan Dounan thinks that his hands are not shaking very much, and it is still possible to restore a toothpaste painting.
But if he were to restore some sketches, oil paintings, and ink paintings, he would not understand how the brushstrokes were drawn and how the colors were adjusted. The final restoration of the painting can only be a four dissimilar.
In addition, if his ability to restore "paintings that require special techniques" is only 70%, then let him draw a picture according to a person's face, and it is estimated that the person drawn is a human figure.
Being able to remember what a face looks like and being able to draw that face completely are two completely different fields. Not to mention Guan Dounan, who basically didn't know how to draw before and after crossing.
To sum up, Kudo Shinichi was silent for a long time while holding the picture, which was between the children's sketches and the color blocks scribbled in pencil. What can barely be called a "portrait" can only be seen wearing glasses, with a thin face and still hair.
"...If I can see that guy again, I'll definitely recognize it."
Guan Dounan could only forcibly honor himself.
"Forget it, let's see if you can get something else with another description."
"Okay. Now, what I want to know is where the manuscript of 'The Big Dipper from Ueno' is now."
[Reflection] The ability was activated again, and Guan Dounan's fingers that rolled the coin stopped for a while, and then continued to roll again.
"The flashed picture is of an ordinary residential house seen from a certain angle, and the house number and other details cannot be seen clearly." Guan Dounan said slowly, thought for a while, and added, "I tested it with me before. The amount of information obtained by activating the ability without any preparation or with only the most basic information seems to have played a certain role."
"So it turns out, it seems that your ability points to a 'factual thing', so you can't use language loopholes to find bugs. But this also proves in disguise that your ability is not mechanical, artificially designed The established program is closer to the ability to operate depending on the 'real world'..." Kudo Shin nodded and said a lot of words that Guan Dounan couldn't understand, "By the way, is the 'test' you tested before? Make any preparations to activate the ability when it's time' to know what?"
"The launch code of the U.S. nuclear bomb..."
"…Good for you."
…
In short, the two later tested Guan Dounan's ability through various methods, but they didn't find anything that could be missed. In the final analysis, the stand-in and stand-in abilities are also activated by the stand-in messenger himself, just like an extension of the stand-in messenger's own skills, limbs, and abilities.
If you use the analogy of riding a bicycle, obtaining and using the avatar ability is like learning how to maintain balance on a bicycle. It is a kind of thing that you probably know how to do and can use it proficiently, but you can't explain the principle in detail to others. people stuff.
Naturally, a person can't find any bugs in the state of riding a bicycle. He can take off immediately after pedaling. At most, he can adjust his state to make the bicycle ride more stable and faster.
Of course, if there is a stand-in messenger whose stand-in ability can really take off with just one kick, that's another story.
"...So according to what you said, there might be an ability in the world that can pause time, even delete and speed up time? Well, although this ability is very powerful, it is relatively easy to reason about..."
"I think from the perspective of reasoning and solving cases, the most difficult thing should be the ability that does not leave any external traces when using it, and does not show any abnormal ability on the surface. Like your ability is actually a kind."
"Indeed, but since there is a stand-in ability—well, I'd better call it superpower. Since such an ability exists, the general process from solving a case to arrest, and then to detention judgment is likely to fail. . Isn't it all in those superpower crime movies? After you have the ability, you can directly kill the police in the street or something."
"Indeed, in this way, the danger of participating in the case has increased. Xiaolan estimates that she will use various reasons to dissuade me, even my father and mother..."
"Ding dong."
The topic of the two gradually shifted from Guan Dounan himself to the society's handling of superpower crimes. At this time, the doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting the communication between the two.
"Who will it be at this time?" Kudo Shin glanced at his watch, and the time pointed to more than twelve o'clock noon. The two had chatted and had not eaten yet.
Kudo Shinichi stood up, walked to the entrance, and opened the door. Guan Dounan walked to the refrigerator by himself, looking for some water to drink.
"Hello, may I ask, are you the famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi? In fact, I recently encountered a difficult thing. I heard that your reasoning ability is very strong, so I want to ask you. This is 200,000 yuan. Yen, you take it first..."
"Ah, there's no need for money or anything. What's the matter, please tell me in detail."
The voice coming from outside the door sounded like a middle-aged woman, and she was literally fat.
"This guy really forgets everything as soon as he encounters a case..." Guan Dounan opened the refrigerator, and after thinking about it, he decided that he didn't bring any other drinks, and only picked a half red and half blue can of "Kexi" Coke— I haven't seen or heard of this suture monster-like brand before, and it's worth a try.
"do not move."
The cold and solid touch suddenly pressed against Guan Dounan's waist. Guan Dounan was startled, reached out and slowly closed the refrigerator door, and saw behind him from the reflection of the refrigerator door.
A man wearing an exaggerated high-necked black dress and a black top hat, his face was covered by a white mask with a more exaggerated smile than Xiao Hei. Simply put, this guy doesn't look like a good guy.
And the one with the Didan school uniform shirt on his back should be a pistol in terms of shape and touch, which is called a fist gun in Japanese.
what happened? The black organization in the original Conan? Nope~www.novelbuddy.com~ The current Kudo Shinichi has no relationship with them at all. Even if the organization wants to eliminate people who threaten them in the future, it shouldn't be necessary to do this step. After all, the current Kudo Shin is just a little famous detective boy...
Could it be that the stand-in messenger Seyu who was caught before was actually related to the winery? No, if the thinking is a little more relaxed, then this person is not necessarily not the winery's own stand-in messenger. Since it is a stand-in messenger, it is likely to have the ability to foresee the future...
However, why does this person behind him have an inexplicable sense of familiarity? Seems like I just saw it not too long ago...
"Now, walk slowly to the room on your right."
The man in black behind him seemed to make a low voice from the depths of his chest, and the gun in his hand was sent forward, indicating the direction to Guan Dounan.
"it is good."
Guan Dounan kept the cola in his hand flat and turned around slowly.
Now he has no means of confronting other avatars, especially those who are capable of fighting. Not to mention that the main body is a weak chicken, the avatar still has no action when it is summoned. Even a double-E avatar can barely fight people.
In frontal combat, I am afraid that you can only summon Xiao Hei several times in a second in a row like yesterday and change the movements of the summoned Xiao He every time to achieve a scary effect...
But I don't know if it's lucky or unfortunate. When he and Kudo Shinichi were chatting, they discussed how to use his own double that was summoned and couldn't move, and he successfully made an experiment.

The man in black wearing a top hat suddenly lost Guan Dounan's figure in front of him, and he felt a strong sense of oppression coming from above him.
