Conan: Ran, I really am Shinichi, you have to believe me!

Chapter 7: This young lady is so kind, I can't take it anymore!

After racking his brains, Jiang Chengbei finally managed to deal with the kind-hearted older sister neighbor.

The girl with long, straight black hair accompanied the girl with short brown hair to the elevator at the end of the corridor, preparing to see her downstairs. Jiang Chengbei also went inside and closed the door. Finally, they were back in their home in the Conan world.

Upon entering the house, Jiang Chengbei began to familiarize himself with the layout while rummaging through his belongings.

The identity assigned to Jiang Chengbei by the system was one that, apart from his basic information, he had little to no memory of the original owner.

Jiang Chengbei's basic information is: both his parents died in a car accident a year ago, leaving him a two-bedroom apartment and some savings.

My personal information is that I am 19 years old this year, just graduated from high school a few months ago, failed to get into university, and am currently working at a convenience store. I am single and have no family to worry about.

After a cursory tour of Conan's house, Jiang Chengbei finally found the diary in the original master bedroom. Before he could open it and take a closer look, the doorbell rang.

The doorbell rang, so Jiang Chengbei had no choice but to temporarily put away the original owner's diary and open the door for the uninvited guest with ill intentions.

As soon as Jiang Chengbei opened the door, he saw his neighbor, an older sister, carrying bedding in her arms and a bag in her hand, which contained cakes, milk, toiletries, and other items.

"Conan, are you hungry? This is a cake that Shiho and I bought when we went shopping. We originally wanted to give it to Kita, but since Kita is still working overtime and hasn't come back yet, and you came back first, we'll give it to you."

"Conan, remember to drink a glass of milk before bed tonight. I'll heat it up for you."

After saying that, the black-haired neighbor, Masami Hirota, carried her bedding and belongings into the house, treating it as if it were her own home. After putting the bags on the table, she carried the bedding to the guest room.

Afterwards, she had Jiang Chengbei drink milk and eat cake while waiting, while she tidied up the guest room and chatted with him non-stop.

"I prepared this bedding for Shiho, but unfortunately I haven't had the chance or the means to let Shiho stay here, so this bedding has never been used and is brand new. Now I can only lend it to you for the time being."

Xiao Bei just graduated from high school and is still a child himself. He has difficulty taking care of himself, and the house only has his own things. He didn't consider what he would need to prepare if there was another person in the house, and he has no experience in taking care of children. Conan, please don't mind.

Conan, if you have any trouble, come next door and ask your older sister for help. I'll take good care of you for Xiao Bei.

Don't let the fact that I don't have kids yet fool you; I've been taking care of Shiho since she was born, and I'm a pro at raising children, hehe.

"No, hehe." Jiang Chengbei, behind Hirota Masami, stared blankly: This is my house. I didn't expect you to know it better than I do.

As the head of the household, I feel quite embarrassed to be treated like a guest by you, my kind neighbor.

"Huh? What's not hee hee?" Hearing the child's mutterings behind her, Hirota Masami turned around and stared blankly at Jiang Chengbei.

"It's nothing, I just meant... thank you, Sister Yamei, hehe."

"Is that so? I understand, Conan, no, hee hee." Masami Hirota winked playfully.

Jiang Chengbei still had a deadpan expression: "..."

……

After spending some time making up the bed for Jiang Chengbei in the guest room and tidying up other things, Hirota Masami waited for Jiang Chengbei to finish washing up, told him to turn off the lights and close the doors and windows before going to bed, and then left.

Of course, before leaving, she also said, "Conan, get up early tomorrow, wash up and come next door for breakfast. I'll prepare breakfast for you and Kita, so don't stay in bed."

"Okay, Yamei-neechan, goodnight."

Goodnight, Conan, sweet dreams.

Once Hirota Masami returned to her apartment next door, Jiang Chengbei finally had time to look through the original owner's diary.

My neighbor is so overly enthusiastic, it's annoying.

Boys should take good care of themselves when they are home alone, especially when there are kind female neighbors around.

These are the things Jiang Chengbei summarized after reading the original owner's diary.

The diary reveals that during the year or so after the original owner lost his parents, his new neighbor, Hirota Masami, took great care of him, and the diary is filled with gratitude towards her.

After reading the original owner's diary, Jiang Chengbei had nothing to say. It was also very late, and he was so sleepy that he could only go to bed quickly.

……

The next day, Jiang Chengbei was still having a sweet dream when he was woken up by a doorbell. It turned out that his neighbor, Hirota Masami, had prepared breakfast and came to call him and Jiang Chengbei to have breakfast.

"Hey Conan, why are you alone? Where's Kita?"

I'm so sorry, the Conan and Xiao Bei you're talking about are both me.

Jiang Chengbei rolled his eyes at Hirota Masami for disturbing his sleep, inwardly cursing her.

Despite his inner grumbling, he still had to answer his beautiful neighbor's question, so, inheriting Conan's extensive experience in lying, Jiang Chengbei blurted out:

"Brother Xiao Bei has already gone to work. He said he'll have breakfast at the convenience store."

"How can this be? He was on the night shift last night, and now he's on the morning shift again. This kind of scheduling, working non-stop, isn't it too unfair to the newcomer?"

"Huh? Oh, I was covering for someone last night. I only started working normally this morning, hehehe."

"You can't make someone work non-stop without rest just because you're covering for them. Xiao Bei is just too honest. Conan, you should help Xiao Bei out more and make things easier for him after get off work."

"okay."

Jiang Chengbei gave an awkward laugh. Just when he thought the crisis was over, his phone rang.

I'm new here, I don't have the original owner's memories, and now I've turned into a child. There's also an organization surrounding me, so I can't use a voice changer. How am I supposed to answer the phone?

Just as Jiang Chengbei was considering how to answer the phone, Hirota Masami, without any hesitation, answered the call before Jiang Chengbei, the host, could even speak.

"Moshi moshi..."

So it's Xiao Bei's store manager...

I am Xiaobei's neighbor...

What?! Xiao Bei's been late for hours and still hasn't arrived? I heard from Conan that he went to work early this morning…

He hasn't arrived yet. Could it be because you made him work the night shift yesterday and then the early shift this morning, keeping him on the go without rest, and he got tired and something happened on the way?

What? He wasn't scheduled for the night shift last night, and no one offered him a cover shift. He left after get off work during the day?

is this real?

"Oh, I understand. I'll hang up now, goodbye, manager. I'll go find Xiao Bei myself; I hope nothing bad has happened to the child."

After listening to their conversation, Jiang Chengbei looked like a dead fish: "How can they plagiarize so blatantly? How come my current situation is exactly the same as Ran not being able to find Shinichi Kudo and only having Conan by her side?"

While Jiang Chengbei was lost in thought, Hirota Masami, having hung up the phone, looked at him with a deep gaze and a serious expression, and said:

"Conan, tell me the truth, where did Xiao Bei go? Did he come back last night?"

"Well... Brother Xiao Bei said he didn't want to work at the convenience store anymore, so he went to look for a job as soon as he got off work yesterday."

Of course, before finding a better job, he didn't want to lose his only job, so he secretly went looking for work without telling the store manager or anyone else.

With his body transformed into Conan, Jiang Chengbei's mind was naturally influenced by Conan as well, making lies flow effortlessly from his lips.

"Really? Children aren't allowed to lie."

"I'm not lying... Oh, Yamei, don't you work at a bank? Nine to five, the bank is almost open, why aren't you there yet?"

Don't worry about Xiao Bei's brother. I think the reason he didn't go to work at the convenience store is because he's found a new job and will be back soon.

"Really? I always feel like you're just giving me the runaround."

"No, Sister Yamei, you should go to work. As soon as Brother Xiaobei comes back, I'll have him call you. If you don't go to work soon, you'll lose your job at the bank."

If you, Masami Hirota, lose your job at the bank, how are you going to rob a bank and get 10 billion yen to redeem your sisters?

So, Gin asked you for 1 billion, but your group only took 1 billion, so you were planning to keep 1 billion for yourself from the beginning.

Hirota Masami, you may be beautiful, but I can't trust you to rob a bank with me.

If I wait until she gets the billion yen and then steal the money myself, will she kill me in a fit of rage?

If she were capable of cutting herself, I'd have to give it a shot.

After silently cursing her in his heart and subtly reminding her of the importance of working at the bank, Jiang Chengbei finally got through the day and watched her go to work.

As soon as Hirota Masami left, Jiang Chengbei used Conan's voice changer to call the convenience store manager and quit his job at the convenience store.

Then he called Hirota Masami again to tell her that he had found a new job and was highly valued by his boss. He said that he would be going on a business trip with his boss for a few days as soon as he started the job, and that Hirota Masami should not worry.

"He's just a neighbor, why are you so concerned about me?"

Sigh, is it because I'm too handsome? But why isn't there a single picture of myself in my house?

Now, if I want to know what I look like, I have to wait until Shinichi Kudo shrinks and the real Conan appears. It's so annoying!

After spending a lot of time talking to Hirota Masami and hanging up the phone, Jiang Chengbei muttered a few complaints to himself.

"Oh, my neighbor is too friendly, I can't stay here any longer."

Thinking of this, Jiang Chengbei quickly packed up and left after finishing breakfast. He couldn't stay at this place any longer; before he could return to his original form, he would have to make his way in the world outside.

Who can blame me for being just a little kid now, unable to compete with such a beautiful woman?

As for returning to its original state, of course it's open to all comers.

Since I already have a system for everyone to "kill" me, of course I should date more, break up more, and cheat more. Ideally, the other person should be so angry that they want to kill the guy's girl. That way, I can balance my mission and my life.

In real society, being a scumbag makes me feel a little guilty, but when I encounter a woman who threatens to kill me, I feel much better.

After all, the other person only lost love, while I have to pay the price with my life.

Keep going, work hard, strive to become the president of the club as soon as possible, experience more relationships, be a little more foul-mouthed and arrogant towards other men, let's all compete fiercely, compete so fiercely that we end up stabbing each other in the back.

Chapter 8 Young Detective Team

Stepping out of the house, I sped along the streets of Beika Town on my solar-powered skateboard.

He opened the tracking glasses and glanced inside; the transmitter left in the jewelry pouch was still there.

The transmitter that was placed on Shinichi Kudo after he was anesthetized is currently located at Teitan High School. It seems that before Conan appears, Shinichi Kudo will have to be a miserable high school student.

Jiang Chengbei had a clear plan for the period during which he would become Conan and temporarily have two lives, so after leaving home, he inquired everywhere in Beika Town about where there were haunted houses.

Perhaps it was because Jiang Chengbei was having bad luck today, or perhaps it was because there were too many houses in Beika Town where murders had occurred, and the Japanese were superstitious and prone to making a fuss, so the haunted houses that Jiang Chengbei inquired about were not the places he was looking for; they were just places with more rumors after the murders.

Since he couldn't find the haunted house he wanted, Jiang Chengbei had no choice but to go to Ditan Elementary School and climb over the wall from a corner to get in.

Today is not a day off, and all the children are at school. Teitan Elementary School is quite lively.

Jiang Chengbei is now in Conan's form. After climbing over the wall, anyone who sees him will subconsciously assume that he is a student at Teitan Elementary School, so Jiang Chengbei can openly wander around the school.

Of course, the fact that he could wander around the school without attracting attention was largely due to the fact that he climbed over the wall just as get out of class was ending; otherwise, during class, he would have been caught and asked which class he was in.
