Chapter 332 Worldview Items! Conan's...
"We don't even know when someone died, so what makes you think you have nothing to do with it? So what if there are witnesses? Who knows what really happened!"
Conan's words prompted another shout and question from the crowd.
"First of all, as I just said, we have been outside since this afternoon, and there are people who can testify to this. Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth."
"Secondly, I just checked the doors and windows in this room. The door was locked, and the window was also locked, but there was a problem; it opened as soon as I pushed it."
This is something Conan didn't notice when he opened the window.
However, when Uncle Mori stuck his head out, he was brought back to his senses by the messy marks on the beach outside and noticed the problem with the window lock.
"But the window wasn't pried open from the outside; rather, the lock was broken from the inside. In other words, it was very likely done by someone who attended the memorial service."
"Although we went out to eat for a while, we ate at the street corner not far from here. We could see clearly if anyone came or left."
"There may be some omissions, but you should know who has left or arrived, right? After all, we are the only outsiders on this island."
"There should be a list of who attended this memorial service, right? And for those who are not on the list, whether you know them or not, I'm sure you remember them."
"So? After we left, did anyone else enter the community center?" Conan's gaze was fixed on the adults who were much taller than him.
Sharp eyes.
Surprisingly, even those burly men couldn't help but avoid his gaze.
Upon seeing this situation, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, who was leading the group, immediately frowned.
However, he quickly smoothed his brows and then put on a kind smile: "I really didn't expect that such a young child like you would know so much. You're really amazing. Is this your son, Detective? You're so young, yet so promising."
Kuroiwa Tatsuji smiled and said to Uncle Mori, while his slightly cloudy eyes fixed on Conan.
Upon hearing this, Conan realized what he meant and immediately shuddered. Then he laughed and said, "I just mentioned Uncle Mori's thoughts. Uncle Mori must have thought of these things long ago, but he's a low-key person, so he didn't say anything."
Conan quickly turned his head to look at Uncle Mori, avoiding Kuroiwa Tatsuji's gaze and not meeting his eyes.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Mori, you're right, aren't you? You must have expected this little detail, right? I was imitating Uncle Mori's thinking to be able to capture so much information!"
"Huh? Ah, yes, I definitely thought of that a long time ago." Uncle Mori was a little confused as Conan grabbed his trouser leg.
However, what Conan said was indeed a question he had thought about.
So there's nothing wrong with what he said.
but……
He looked up at the top of Conan's head.
The previous blister doesn't seem to have completely disappeared.
It looks a bit bulging.
Uncle Mori thought for a moment, but still didn't make a move against Conan. Instead, he patted Conan on the shoulder and said, "You can think of so much just by imitating my thinking. It seems you've learned a thing or two from following me around! Alright, stop causing trouble here. There are adults here, and we don't need you to interrupt."
"Okay! I understand!" Conan nodded repeatedly when he saw that Uncle Mori wasn't going to pursue the matter.
Then, he obediently ran to Xiaolan's side.
"Sister Xiaolan, how about I go with you to report it to the police?" He tilted his head and asked Xiaolan.
Seeing a group of people making false accusations against them without any evidence, Conan was furious and couldn't help but refute them.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that he might have said a bit too much, and that his manner of speaking to those people was a bit too much like an adult.
Only then did he think of quickly going out to avoid the situation.
Besides, he had already seen most of the scene, and if he went to the police station, he might be able to get some useful information from them.
But before he could finish speaking, Sonomi said calmly, "Let me go. You kids can stay here."
"Ah? Mrs. Daidouji, actually Ran could have gone..." Uncle Mori tried to persuade her.
However, Sonoko shook her head, indicating that she would go instead.
Seeing how determined she was, Uncle Mori couldn't insist any further.
So he nodded and said, "Then please go and come back quickly."
"Okay." Yuanmei walked out of the music room.
She had a powerful aura, giving off a feeling that strangers should stay away.
Moreover, those who originally didn't want them to call the police seemed to have been instructed to do so. Seeing Yuanmei leave, they didn't utter a word, but silently made way for her.
"Tomoyo, you guys stay here and behave yourselves. I'll be right back." Before leaving, Sonoko gave a message to Wang Changsheng and Sakura in the corner.
After receiving a positive response from Tomoyo and the others, he then left.
Of course, before leaving, she asked the current village chief, who was also the head of the police station, where the station was located.
The distance between the community center and the police station is not very far.
So they didn't keep Uncle Mori and the others waiting for too long.
After a while, about forty or fifty minutes, Yuanmei returned.
They also brought along an older-looking police officer.
It seems he is the only police force on this island.
"How can someone so old... stay up all night like this?"
Uncle Mori saw the policeman who had arrived, and his white hair was now visible. He was momentarily speechless, but he only muttered something to Ran without letting anyone else hear him.
It's not that he's prejudiced or anything.
I was just thinking that a murder had already occurred.
Everyone present will definitely be taken to give a statement.
This is also one of the first things the police should do after encountering a case.
If it's too late, the police will not only face the possibility that those giving statements may have memory lapses.
There is also the possibility that some people will use this as an excuse to refuse to take a more detailed statement.
That would be a whole host of troubles.
However, this time only one veteran policeman came.
The real police force is probably on its way.
I don't know when I'll be able to get there.
Therefore, the heavy responsibility of taking statements fell entirely on the shoulders of this veteran policeman.
But he's a bit old, and with so many people giving statements, even if it's just a simple questioning, it would take two or three hours if we went to each person individually.
Is his body able to handle it?
Uncle Mori was worried about the old policeman.
However, with the intervention of the police, even though he was just an elderly officer, the situation was quickly brought under control.
Unlike before, when he kept yelling at Conan and Uncle Mori.
Right now, all of these people are admitting defeat in front of the old policeman.
They were all incredibly obedient, a stark contrast to how they acted when facing Uncle Mori.
And so, everyone registered their information with the old policeman.
They also conducted a simple body search.
This is hardly even a statement being taken.
The old policeman said that since it was too late, it would be best to talk about it tomorrow, because the boat definitely wouldn't arrive tonight.
When Conan couldn't help but ask why again.
The old policeman explained that he had checked the weather forecast before he came, which said that the waves would be very high tonight, making it difficult to set sail.
In other words, the police might not arrive until tomorrow morning.
Everyone felt helpless, but there was nothing else they could do.
Only after the old policeman finished questioning them did they slowly leave and go home one by one.
Rao is so.
The veteran policeman also put in a lot of effort to record the people present.
"Can we go back now?" Sakura asked timidly and cautiously, shrinking close to Wang Changsheng.
"Yes, it's getting late, we really should go back." Wang Changsheng stroked Xiaoying's fur and comforted her.
Just then, Sakura's cell phone rang.
Sakura quickly answered the call.
"Feed? Hello, this is Kinomoto..."
"So you do know that?" Before Sakura could finish speaking, a barrage of insults erupted from the other end of the phone. "What time is it? Why aren't you back yet? It's been so long!"
"Onii-chan?"
Sakura was a little confused for a moment, and it took her a while to come to her senses.
However, upon hearing the voice on the phone, she immediately felt a little guilty and said, "Brother, we'll be back right away!"
"Are you still in that... establishment?" Touya's tone was anything but friendly.
"Yes." Sakura nodded weakly.
"Alright, come back quickly." Touya didn't say anything more, just left a sentence, and then hung up the phone.
And so, Wang Changsheng and Xiaoying and their group embarked on their journey back to the guesthouse.
on the way back.
Asai Narumi followed part of the route with them and ended up walking together.
Since it was quite late, Yuanmei asked Linghuan Xinlong to take good care of Wang Changsheng.
She held Tomoyo's hand in one hand and Sakura's hand in the other.
Only Xiaolang and Reigen Shinryu stayed by Wang Changsheng's side.
Conan naturally stayed with Ran and Uncle Mori.
But it didn't take long.
Conan's figure looked a bit off.
His pace slowed down more and more.
Finally, after much hesitation, they caught up with Wang Changsheng and the others who were walking at the back.
"Hey, Conan, little brother, what are you doing?" Conan seemed to be brewing something to tell him.
Wang Changsheng chuckled: "What, do you have a secret to tell me?"
His expression became somewhat exaggerated, but his voice lowered: "You wouldn't happen to like me and be going to confess your feelings, would you?"
Upon hearing this, Conan's glasses widened immediately, but he also lowered his voice and retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't say anything!"
Message: Your friendly conversation has deeply affected Conan's stomach, making him feel a little nauseous.
Message: You have obtained a world-building item—Conan's underwear!
Message: Negative points from Conan Edogawa +999
Worldview Item – Conan's Underwear: A magical item imbued with the power of the worldview, possessing unique effects in certain areas. Worldview items are usually born within the bodies of the chosen ones in the world.
PS: Conan isn't always this small; he occasionally grows bigger. But when he grows bigger, his underwear naturally grows bigger too. However, how could a primary school student's size possibly contain it? Therefore, after experiencing the first time he almost exploded from holding it in, Conan had no choice but to cut a hole in his underwear to avoid the risk of exploding.

PS1: Ran later discovered these underwear. She was shocked that Conan was so bored that he started playing with underwear, which deepened her affection for Conan. Naturally, the underwear was discarded, and now it's in your hands.
"Well???"
The system's prompt left Wang Changsheng somewhat stunned.
He didn't even want to look at the reward.
It always smells bad.
"But what exactly is a worldview?"
Wang Changsheng decided to go back and take a look.
At this moment, the little wolf beside him also glared, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Changsheng's statement.
Wang Chaosheng snapped out of his daze and saw Conan glaring at him. He glanced at the other man and said, "Since you're not here to confess to me, what are you trying to say by sneaking up to me like this? You can't possibly be hoping I'll pat your head, can you?"
"What do you mean, 'dog head'? You're the dog head! And who would like you? You actually think someone would confess to you? I think only a big idiot would like you!" Conan retorted in a low voice.
Fortunately, most of the people in front of me were chatting in small groups.
So it wasn't exactly quiet between them, and no one noticed anything amiss when Wang Changsheng and Conan were arguing quietly at the back of the group.
"Don't talk nonsense, little kid!"
As Conan finished speaking, before Wang Changsheng could even open his mouth, Little Wolf frowned and retorted.
"..." Conan was speechless after Syaoran's words. He opened his mouth for a moment, but didn't know what to say.
Who the hell is a kid?
You're just a little kid!
Although Conan was lectured by Syaoran in a tone that sounded like an elder, he couldn't refute her in the slightest and could only feel helplessly furious inside.
"Alright, hurry up and tell me, what do you want to ask me?" Wang Changsheng had obtained a prop from the game's lore. Although it might just be the underwear that Conan, that brat, wore... judging from the prefix on this thing, it seemed to be something quite extraordinary.
So Wang Changsheng stopped making things difficult for Conan and instead encouraged him to speak his mind.
"call"
Conan took a deep breath, then lowered his voice and moved to the other side of Wang Changsheng.
Clearly, he didn't want the little wolf beside him to hear what he was saying anymore.
