Conan felt that he had received enough shocks for one night.
He had been kidnapped, then his worldview had collapsed, and now it was the savior segnt?
At this mont, because of this series of changes, Conan's heart, on the contrary, had cald down.
After a brief pause, he was even able to ask the "himself" sitting opposite him in all seriousness about who the savior's enemies were.
"As for the enemies... evil ghosts, cursed spirits, vampires, aliens, espers, or maybe in the future, there will be guys from another world intruding?" Miyauchi Hikage said, his hands propped on his knees, speaking of his understanding of this world. "Among these guys, there are always so who want to rewrite or even destroy the world according to their own will. Do you think those count as enemies?"
Conan committed everything the "himself" said to mory, and at the sa ti, seriously believed that this "himself" might be the very kind of person he was talking about.
"Don't look at like that. I haven't used any threatening ans on you so far. To be honest, even if you refuse , I won't do anything to you. Do you know why?"
Miyauchi Hikage extended his hand and pointed at Conan. "Because you are that kind of detective. When a mystery is placed before you, no matter how dangerous it is, you will not hesitate to pounce on it to find the truth."
"The mystery now before you is a field that Hols, Poirot, Queen, and even your own father, Kudo Yusaku—these world-famous detectives—have never set foot in. Can you really be willing to give up?"
Conan stared tightly at this "himself." This man had a deep understanding of him, and his words really did make an impulse surge in his heart.
But the more Conan looked at the other's face, the more he felt a sense of dissonance.
"This isn't your original appearance, is it? I should say, there isn't a single part of you that is your true appearance, right? If you want to help you, shouldn't you let see your true face?"
Miyauchi Hikage shrugged and did not deny it. "The villains who want to subvert the world are more cunning and crafty than the last. If we righteous characters can't be more cunning and cautious than them, how can we defeat them?"
"You chose to stay at the Mouri Detective Agency before, wasn't it because you wanted to use his detective identity as a cover to make it convenient for you to investigate that Black Organization? You haven't told your big sister Ran your identity in these past one or two months either, have you?"
Although Conan was a little dissatisfied with this person comparing him to himself, Conan, who had not yet told Ran his identity, was indeed a little guilty.
Imdiately after, Miyauchi Hikage continued.
"If you want to know my identity, then try to investigate it yourself. But there is one thing I can tell you, and it is absolutely not a lie," Miyauchi Hikage decided to tell Conan a great truth. "I've been paying attention to you since around '08."
'08? He was still in elentary school at that ti. Could it be that the other party had been paying attention to him since so long ago?
Conan frowned. The other party had been staring at him for such a long ti, yet he had never noticed his existence?
However, regarding the matter of the other's identity, the conversation had more or less reached its end. Conan was silent for a while before he continued to ask, "I need to know more things. The things I saw just now, that lens in your hand, and those enemies you ntioned."
Seeing Conan take the bait, Miyauchi Hikage imdiately began to tell Conan about these things.
From vengeful spirits to cursed spirits, from exorcists to Jujutsu Sorcerers, Miyauchi Hikage briefly explained them all to him. By the way, he also briefly ntioned the possible existence of magicians.
Finally, speaking of that lens, Miyauchi Hikage took it out. "This is a tool specially used to deal with those vengeful spirits. After it's assembled, a person with spiritual power can input it to dispel those vengeful spirits and evil spirits. For soone like you who has no spiritual power... it will consu so of the holder's life energy."
Noticing Conan's nervous expression, Miyauchi Hikage waved his hand. "Life energy can be recovered through eating and so exercise. It's not as scary as you think. And the lens I gave you doesn't have the function of exorcism, it just lets you see those things."
"Under normal circumstances, it's just a matter of eating an extra bowl of rice... but you haven't eaten dinner tonight, have you? Plus, you've been locked up here for so long. You might catch a cold for a day or two later. But to be honest, if you really do catch a cold, it's actually a good thing for you. I have sothing on hand that's suitable for you to take when you have a cold."
Conan was a little unable to understand his words. A cold is a good thing for ? What kind of good thing could it be?
But now that he had received so much information, it was a ti when his adrenaline was pumping wildly, and he didn't feel any fatigue at all.
Perhaps only after he fell asleep and woke up would he be able to feel the true condition of his body.
"Anyway, I'll tell you this much for now. You've just co into contact with the other side of the world. If I say too much at once, you'll easily get confused."
Although Miyauchi Hikage could see that Conan still had a lot of doubts on his face, he still stopped the topic. "Regarding these questions, you can think about them slowly and tell your views on these matters next ti. I'm looking forward to what kind of surprise you can bring with that brain of yours."
"For now, as a reward, I can tell you a little sothing about yourself. So, is there anything you want to know?"
Because of this sentence, Conan instantly recalled his current situation.
He first asked for confirmation, "What on earth is my current situation?"
He was still a little concerned about whether his body had shrunk, or if his mory had been replaced into another body.
Although the latter seed a little more "scientific," after tonight's events, having personally witnessed the process of a hideous vengeful spirit being eliminated by a super-mouse, he had gradually begun to rebuild a new worldview.
"APTX4869. That's the na of the poison you took. Although in most cases it will cause the person who takes it to die of cardiac arrest, in very rare cases, it will cause the taker's body to undergo a reverse-aging phenonon."
"As for whether there is supernatural power in this drug, that is a matter for you, the detective, to investigate."
"Then what on earth does that organization want to do to ?" Conan looked at the two sleeping people outside the room.
"Do you want to go and confirm their identities? Then go now," Miyauchi Hikage spread his hands. "As long as you don't make too much of a move, they won't wake up."
