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

Page 70

"Kudo-kun, come here for a second and lift up my shirt so everyone can see how the Tokyo police used excessive force yesterday!"

"Okay, my Hattori-kun."

With the Ke Xue Chakra Voice Changer, Jiang Chengbei could skillfully switch between his own voice (that of Kudo) and the voice of the imposter Hattori Heiji.

Jiang Chengbei writes, directs, acts, and even voices his own roles. He's very busy, but he still tries his best to play every role well. There are no small roles, only small actors.

Next, Jiang Chengbei dubbed the scene while helping the sleeping Hattori Heiji take off his shirt, so that everyone could see the bruises on his body.

"Hey, Hattori-kun, why do you have so many bruises? Who hit you?"

"Ah, Kudo-kun, this is the kind of mess the Tokyo Police have made!"

"Ah, Hattori-kun, were all these beatings done by Tokyo police?"

"Ah, Kudo-kun, that's right. These are the bruises and contusions left when your Tokyo police threw the stun grenade next to me and then swarmed around me and violently subdued me!"

"Oh, Hattori-kun, how could they do this?"

"Ah, Kudo-kun, yes, how could they be so violent!"

"Hey, Hattori-kun, didn't you just say you were going to sleep? Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Ah, Kudo-kun, I'm going to sleep right away. Please stop saying 'Ah, Hattori-kun,' it's making me uncomfortable."

"Ah, Hattori-kun, okay, I accept your suggestion, I won't say it again."

"Ah, Kudo-kun..."

"Ah, Hattori-kun..."

……

Everyone: "..."

After showing everyone the scars on Hattori Heiji's body, Jiang Chengbei returned to his detective post and started copying homework... and began his own deduction show.

Seeing Hattori Heiji sitting there sleeping shirtless, Kogoro Mouri felt sorry for the boy and worried that he would catch a cold, so he went over and covered him with a piece of clothing.

At the same time, I kept thinking to myself: Kids these days are so fickle.

He promised yesterday that we wouldn't bring it up again, especially since he even tried to persuade everyone to forgive the police's mistake. But overnight, he changed his mind and publicly criticized the police, showing everyone the bruises on his body.

Speaking of the bruises on his body, Kogoro Mouri also had a lot of tears. He had some too, but after accepting the compensation from the police, would he regret it like a child like Heiji Hattori?

No, even if he had just received the compensation and had to pay Jiang Chengbei because Xiaolan broke the car window and seats, he wouldn't go back on his word, and he wouldn't take off his clothes to show everyone his bruises like Hattori did.

On the other side, Jiang Chengbei used the reasoning process and results he had just heard from Hattori Heiji to show off his reasoning skills to everyone.

After Jiang Chengbei finished recounting Hattori Heiji's reasoning and sent the president of Jiamanbao Cleaning Company to the police station, his chance to transform into Conan/Kudo Shinichi increased by one, returning him to the point where he had one available transformation.

In this way, his transformation was a worthwhile investment, and he made back his initial investment.

According to the laws of Detective Conan, after explaining his reasoning and showing off, Heiji Hattori also woke up at the same time.

When Hattori Heiji woke up, he saw Kudo Shinichi giving an interview and talking boastfully in front of the camera, and he was furious.

That bastard! He was the one investigating the case, and the reasoning was his work, but it was plagiarized by that show-off bastard in front of him!

Plagiarism is one thing, but before, during, and after the plagiarism, he still tries to kick Hattori Heiji while he's down. This kind of Shinichi Kudo is a complete bastard!

Enraged, Hattori Heiji first put on his clothes, then pushed through the crowd and rushed to Jiang Chengbei. He glared at Kudo Shinichi in front of the camera, pointing his finger at him and shouting:

"Shinichi Kudo, you plagiarist! You stole my deduction results and presented them as your own. Have you no shame?"

Upon hearing Hattori Heiji's accusation, Jiang Chengbei shrugged, offering no defense. He then took the microphone from in front of him, placed it in Hattori Heiji's hand, and said:

"Hattori, if you have any grievances, speak them out to the viewers in front of the television, and they will give you justice."

After saying that, Jiang Chengbei generously showed off his abilities, then stepped back, signaling Hattori Heiji to speak freely and boldly. At the same time, he also gestured to the reporter in front of him to interview Hattori Heiji, this young man who desperately needed exposure.

Jiang Chengbei showed magnanimity, but Hattori Heiji was not appreciative. He seized the opportunity and began to loudly complain and criticize Kudo Shinichi:

"Shinichi Kudo is a fraud. He just arrived at the scene, he doesn't know anything, he has no time to investigate the case. He just stole my deductions from me..."

After that, Hattori Heiji recounted in detail what Jiang Chengbei had done to him, including how Kudo Shinichi impersonated him and how he used a wristwatch-shaped anesthetic needle to anesthetize him.

After Hattori Heiji finished explaining his grievances, he realized that the reporters were looking at him strangely, and then asked dumbly:

"I'm telling the truth, so why are you looking at me like that?"

After hearing Hattori Heiji's words, the reporters present exchanged glances. After that, they lost all desire to ask questions and immediately turned to surround Jiang Chengbei, bombarding him with questions:

"Kudo-kun, it's been quite a while since we've seen you. Where did you go during the days you disappeared?"

"Since I was defeated by Conan Edogawa many times, I realized that my reasoning ability was far inferior to his, so I went to the Yamanotei Temple to live a secluded life."

The purpose was to distance myself from the mundane world, calm my mind, and carefully reflect on the detours I had taken in the past.

"Now that you've come out of seclusion, does that mean you've finished thinking and reached a conclusion?"

"That's right, I've figured it out, I've realized where I went wrong."

In the past, I cared too much about the outcome, wanted to win too much, and even resorted to unscrupulous means to win.

Just like Hattori now, when I was defeated by Conan in the past, I always denied it and always accused Conan of drugging me and speaking in my voice.

Now I understand, so I sincerely apologize to Conan. I'm sorry, I couldn't accept defeat before, and I framed you. Please forgive me!

Seeing "Shinichi Kudo" bow at a 90-degree angle with a sincere apology, Heiji Hattori was completely stunned.

Why does Shinichi Kudo's words feel so familiar?

Chapter 116 Jiang Chengbei apologizes, and Conan and Hattori are both stunned.

"That's right. When I couldn't solve a case before, I would pretend to be asleep and secretly listen to Conan's reasoning and the culprits he deduced."

Then, after he finished speaking and caught the murderer, I accused him of drugging me, and then pretended to wake up suddenly, as if I hadn't heard his reasoning at all, and then plagiarized his reasoning and presented it as my own.

These are things I did when I couldn't accept defeat, and they've caused trouble for everyone.

Now I solemnly apologize to Conan, who is under house arrest at the Metropolitan Police Department, to the journalists I deceived, and to all the viewers watching on television.

Seeing Jiang Chengbei transformed into Shinichi Kudo apologizing, Conan watching on TV and Heiji Hattori at the scene were both stunned!

Conan: Dude, dude, what are you doing on TV? If you're on TV, won't everyone know that I, Shinichi Kudo, am still alive?

If everyone knows, doesn't that mean Gin knows too?

He's such a ruthless person, he even dared to hire someone to kill a police officer. If he finds out I'm not dead, what if he goes to Xiaolan to inquire about my whereabouts? Wouldn't Xiaolan be in danger?

Jiang Chengbei: Don't worry, Conan, my brother. If Gin really comes looking for us, I can be the hero and save the day. You can stay in the Metropolitan Police Department without worry.

Conan: ...

Jiangcheng North: ...

Jiang Chengbei & Conan: Hiss~~~ We can actually have a long-distance brainwave conversation? How is that possible?

System message: The Detective Badge of the Conan Chakra has been successfully connected. When you and Conan want to contact each other, you can communicate with Conan remotely via brainwaves.

You can say what you want to say aloud, or say it silently in your heart, and the other person will hear you.

However, neither party can perceive the other's thoughts; only what one party wants the other to know can be heard from a distance.

If you want to use the Detective Badge with the Detective Chakra to communicate with more people, you can also actively open the chat and contact the Teitan Three Idiots who have the Detective Badge at any time.

Note: The Teitan Trio can only participate in conversations if they are wearing the Detective Badge.

After figuring out the truth, Jiang Chengbei could only continue pretending to be Conan's brother, and then said in a surprised tone:

Shinichi Kudo, you actually developed chakra? When did you do that?

Hearing his own voice in his mind, which was also the voice of his half-brother, the murderous tyrant, filled Conan with shock.

He mentally cursed his brother, and only after realizing that the brother couldn't detect it, and that he himself couldn't discern the brother's thoughts, did he feel relieved and speak:

I had a feeling about it the very day you taught me. Didn't I tell you that right then? Didn't you believe me?

As Conan said this, he was thinking that he had only noticed the chakra two days ago, not the night they met as he claimed.

Conan was also conducting experiments to see if the other party had tampered with his chakra, given how easily he had learned it. What he thought in his heart was different from what he said.

If the other party can know his thoughts through chakra, but he doesn't know what the other party is thinking, then there must be something wrong with that chakra. That's why the other party taught him so easily, and he was able to learn it so easily as well.

If there's nothing wrong with the chakra, then even though the other person is a ruthless killer, they are genuinely good to me, even teaching me such amazing chakra. They truly care about me and treat me like a brother.

That's the kind of brother who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Conan can't stand that kind of guy!

Soon, Conan received Jiang Chengbei's reply.

Jiang Chengbei: Forgive me, you didn't lie to me that day. You really did sense the chakra. I thought you were just lying to save your life.

If I had known it was true, I should have killed you back then, so that you wouldn't surpass me in strength and become a threat to me.

Hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Conan was immediately moved:

My brother is indeed a cold-faced but warm-hearted brother. He's pretending to kill me, but actually he's urging me to train hard and not become arrogant because I've developed chakra, so that I won't slack off in my training. He's threatening me with death to make me train harder and strive to surpass him as soon as possible.

If that weren't the case, given that he's many levels stronger than me, he could just rush over and kill me to eliminate any future trouble. Why waste so much time talking to him?

Having figured this out, Conan was grateful, but pretended not to notice and said: "Fine, bring it on. We'll duel in six months."

Jiang Chengbei didn't realize that Conan really considered him a brother, and instead said: "Then you should reserve a burial plot first, so that there won't be any trouble later."

After making those harsh remarks, Jiang Chengbei and Conan ended their call using the Detective Badge of Conan's Chakra. The only advantage this thing has over the Detective Badge and cell phone is that it doesn't care about distance, doesn't need a signal, and doesn't have to worry about running out of battery.

-----------------

"I'm not lying. Shinichi Kudo used a tranquilizer dart to anesthetize me, which is why I was swaying and couldn't stand up. I fell backward and bumped into the wall, and then I sat down and fell asleep. I don't know what happened after that."

"What? You're saying you didn't see Shinichi Kudo and me have any contact before I leaned against the wall, so you don't believe me?"

"Baka! How could I possibly lie about this? I have evidence! Bring me the watch on Shinichi Kudo's wrist. That's the tool Shinichi Kudo used to fire the tranquilizer darts. I saw it clearly!"

Seeing Hattori Heiji struggling desperately in front of the camera, trying to prove that what he said was true, Jiang Chengbei walked over, took off his watch, and put it in Hattori Heiji's hand, indicating that he could take it apart as he pleased, and that if he broke it, it would be Jiang Chengbei's responsibility.

Previously, Heiji Hattori fired a Conan-style chakra tranquilizer dart, a Conan-style chakra gadget that was completely modeled after Conan's wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer dart.

It's a bit of a hassle, actually. Although it's called Conan's Chakra Anesthetic Needle and it does conjure up an anesthetic needle, you can't use it directly. You have to imitate Conan's cool style and aim it with your watch.

Then, during the launch, you have to pretend to press a button on your watch, which then conjures up a mirrored cross on the watch, and finally the tranquilizer dart is launched and flies toward the target.

The only two advantages over the original watch tranquilizer dart used by Conan are that it doesn't discriminate against watches. Here, watches are just props for showing off, and tranquilizer darts can be conjured up on any watch.

Secondly, there's the target lock. Although the tranquilizer dart seems to fly relatively slowly, and a master like Hattori Heiji could easily dodge it, the tranquilizer dart will automatically turn, track, and lock onto the target, and it won't stop until it hits.
