A Great Escape Act in the Sea Is Recommended
Thanks to Fujino's kick, the black and white soccer ball flew straight off Celisa's deck.
After drawing a pristine white arc across the turbulent sea, it crashed down towards the white figure in the night sky.
"Bang!"
A loud bang followed.
The soccer ball crashed straight into the Hang Glider of Kaito Kid.
The keel of the hang Hang Glider bent instantly from the impact of the football.
A sea breeze blew, and the wobbly hang Hang Glider, carrying its white silhouette, crashed headlong into the turbulent sea.
"Call..."
Having finished all that, Fujino let out a soft breath.
Watching the white figure crash into the waves, he felt a sense of balance.
As for that Kaito Kid...
All I can say is good luck to them.
Isn't he good at magic tricks?
I suggest a magic trick where someone disappears into the sea.
"Orchid!"
Just then, a childish shout rang out.
Fujino turned his head and saw Conan hurriedly picking up the indescribable clothes that Kaito Kid had just left on the ground. Then he quickly stood up and ran towards the lifeboat next to the deck not far away.
They were terrified that if they were even a step too slow, they would once again face the tragedy of being flashed with green light above their heads.
"This kid actually believed it."
Watching Conan run and run, seemingly losing a lace-trimmed garment in the process, Fujino couldn't help but smile knowingly.
He then slowly followed.
When Fujino and Conan arrived, Ran's clothes were still intact.
Contrary to what Kaito Kid claimed, nothing important was lost.
Conan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and the weight on his head gradually lifted.
Then, he found a notice next to the brooch that Ran was wearing on her chest.
The announcement detailed how Kaito Kid obtained Ran's evening gown.
It turns out that a while ago, when Ran took her dress to the dry cleaners, that kid took advantage of the situation...
"Damn it, that guy tricked me!"
Conan clutched the Kaito Kid's warning letter tightly, looking utterly exasperated.
"Thump!"
Not far away on the sea, the damaged Hang Glider lost its lift due to the impact of the football.
Kuroba Kaito straight down from a height of several tens of meters.
Fortunately, special measures were taken to prevent him from dying from the fall.
But being immersed in the icy, bone-chilling seawater still made him shiver.
It wasn't because the seawater was so cold, but because the small fish around him were swarming towards him!
That's the scariest part!
"Young Master!"
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from the sea not far away.
Kuroba Kaito looked up and saw a dark shadow...
It was a speedboat, and an elderly man with white hair from Zhongnanhai was waving at him from the speedboat.
It's Grandpa Terai!
With the help of Terai Konosuke, Kuroba Kaito quickly boarded a speedboat and escaped from the perilous sea.
"Young Master, are you alright?!"
Terai Konosuke quickly took out a blanket and draped it over Kuroba Kaito, asking him with a worried expression.
"Fine..."
Kuroba Kaito wrapped the blanket around himself tighter, his gaze fixed on the receding Serena Elizabeth, his eyes filled with confusion.
Just now, he witnessed his playing cards being chopped in half with Wooden Sword knife.
Then he almost got kicked to death by a primary school student with a soccer ball.
The physical damage wasn't serious, but the psychological and worldview impact was another story.
And so, the mission to protect the Black Star was successfully completed.
Even after Celisabe arrived at the port, it was as if nothing had ever happened that Kaito Kid had broken into the ship.
The media, with their keen sense of smell, immediately came over as soon as the ship docked.
I don't know from whom I learned that Kaito Kid had been defeated.
They immediately launched into a flurry of questions and interviews with Fujino.
Perhaps to create some kind of spectacle, they also included Conan, who appeared with Fujino, at the end of the interview.
It was late at night when the interview ended.
Fujino rode the motorcycle he took out from his Pocket Dimension back home.
He had just pushed open the bedroom door when he plopped down on the sofa.
Before he could even warm his backside, a system notification suddenly echoed in his ears: [Host detected to have completed Detective Profession Mission: Protect the Pearl Black Star]
The system reward of two million yen has been distributed.
[The system reward of 200 Detective Reputation has been issued]
[Main profession Detective Level Up, current Detective level: Beginner Five Star]
Has your Detective Level Up?
Fujino was startled when he heard the sound.
Immediately, he opened the system's job panel and focused his attention on the detective job interface:
[Main Profession: Detective (Beginner Level 5) (0|800)]
Full-time Detective: Earn extra bounty and reputation rewards for completing cases.
Detective Time: Beginner (No one can interrupt your reasoning for one minute during the deduction process)
Detective Enhancement: Beginner 4-Star (Limited-time enhancement of body by 200%) Beginner 2-Star (Enhancement time: 4 minutes)
Detective Aura: When the host triggers the Detective effect, they automatically overwhelm the suspect with their aura. The level of overwhelmment depends on the situation. Under the overwhelming effect, the opponent's combat power is reduced by 10%.
Detective Intuition: Beginner (Increases reasoning ability by 25%, and increases reasoning ability by 100% when Detective Intuition is actively triggered; Note: Active skill duration: 60 seconds)
Currently available career points: 1
Current host balance: 3.6 million yen
"One career point?"
Fujino glanced at the system interface and murmured to himself. Then, he allocated one point of professional skill to the Detective Enhancement time enhancement:
[Detective Enhancement time has been increased to: Beginner Three Stars]
[The Detective Enhancement time effect has been increased; the current enhancement time is eight minutes.]
Fujino rubbed his chin as he looked at the enhancement time after the upgrade.
Does the enhancement time for a beginner level 2 star be four minutes, and the enhancement time for a beginner level 3 star be eight minutes?
In eight minutes, it's almost the time it takes to get a high-level Enhancement Card.
One advanced Enhancement Card requires five basic Enhancement Card to synthesize, and also requires an upgrade fee of 300,000 yen.
In other words, a high-level Enhancement Card is equivalent to 800,000 yen.
Now that the system is enhanced, it can reach eight minutes, which, rounded up, saves him a lot of 800,000 yen.
With an eight-minute safety net, plus high-level Enhancement Card...
It seems that he will be able to remain a real man for much longer in the future.
Putting his thoughts aside, Fujino turned his attention back to the Profession Ball lottery interface.
"I currently have 3.6 million yen on hand, so I might as well try my luck in the Intermediate Profession Ball lottery..."
After a moment's thought, Fujino began drawing Intermediate Profession Ball.
[Nine hundred thousand yen has already been consumed for the host]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: Virtual Identity Card (Purple)]
