The Cheat's Showdown 4k Mega Chapter

Is this really okay?

Nakamori Aoko hesitated for a moment and looked at Fujino.

"You need a partner to participate in the event with, and I want the grand prize. We can each get what we need."

Fujino nodded, paused, and then continued, "But we have to make it clear beforehand that if we win, all the prizes will be mine."

"Well... I didn't originally intend to win the championship."

Nakamori Aoko murmured, pondered for a moment, and sighed, "In that case, it's decided."

"But before that, you still need to practice your skiing skills."

Fujino glanced at Nakamori Aoko's sled, recalling the scene of her falling on the spot earlier, and waved his hand helplessly, "Although I can carry you, Aoko, you still need to practice a little... Participating in the competition is secondary, the most important thing is to help you learn to ski."

"Ah!"

"Bang!"

With a shout, Nakamori Aoko fell to the ground again.

Fujino watched Nakamori Aoko fall into the snow pit and couldn't help but sigh.

I've taught him so many times but he still can't learn it...

That's a bit outrageous.

Normally, you should be able to learn how to use this right away.

Even if you're not skilled, you shouldn't fall down.

For a moment, he was speechless.

"Perhaps it's because of the people involved..."

Fujino seemed to suddenly remember something, and scratched his chin. "If it were that kid Kuroba Kaito, she should be able to learn it very easily, right?"

Ran and Sonoko rushed forward to check on Nakamori Aoko's condition.

"I'm so sorry..."

As she spoke, Nakamori Aoko scratched the back of her head and said to Ran Sonoko, "Even though you've been teaching me so diligently, I still can't learn it."

At that moment, Kuroba Kaito and the red-haired woman from before stopped nearby.

Fujino knew that red-haired girl; her name was Koizumi Akako.

"Aoko, your skiing skills are really terrible!"

Looking at Nakamori Aoko covered in snow, Kuroba Kaito teased her.

Kaito and Akako...

Aoko stared blankly at the two who had just returned from skiing, then glanced back at Ran, Sonoko, Conan, and Fujino around her.

"No way!"

She struggled to her feet in the snow, brushed the snow off her body, and retorted, "They were skiing like crazy, you know."

"I think you should go build a snowman over there!"

"What did you say?!"

Just as Aoko and Toko were bickering, Koizumi Akako's gaze drifted to Fujino, who was adjusting his skis on the other side.

Fujino felt a gaze on him and looked up to meet it.

Koizumi Akako felt a strange sensation when Fujino returned her gaze.

It's like this guy knows me, but I don't know that guy...

That's not right. Logically speaking, that kind of look should be how that guy feels.

Thinking of this, she returned what she considered an even fiercer gaze.

Their eyes met.

Stare...

Yes, I can tell from their eyes, they are both cheaters.

"Speaking of which, Aoko, you haven't made a decision yet, have you?"

"Decision? What decision?"

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito suddenly changed his previous frivolous demeanor and asked in a serious tone, "It's about forming teams for tonight's ski competition."

Before Aoko could answer, he revealed a sassy smile, "I really can't do anything with you. Since no one wants to team up with you yet, then I'll team up with you!"

"Well?"

"Well?"

Koizumi Akako and Nakamori Aoko both exclaimed in surprise as they looked away.

Aoko was still very happy to hear this.

However, after thinking it over for a while, she glanced at Koizumi Akako and recalled what Akako had told her before. She sighed and stammered, "Actually, I've already teamed up with Detective Fujino."

"Fujino... huh?"

Kuroba Kaito was stunned upon hearing this, "The Fujino you mentioned, could it be..."

"Ah! Fujino, over here!"

As she spoke, Aoko waved to Fujino behind her.

Kuroba Kaito followed Aoko's waving gaze and saw Fujino dressed in all black.

Looking at the familiar Fujino, Touko was speechless for a moment.

Goodness...

How come I keep running into this guy wherever I go?

Wait, why is this guy teaming up with Aoko?!

Fujino arrived promptly and looked at Koizumi Akako with a puzzled expression, asking, "And who is this?"

"This is Koizumi Akako, my... classmate," Aoko introduced.

"Oh, it's Miss Akako. My name is Fujino, Fujino Doji. Nice to meet you."

"Um... please take care of me."

Koizumi Akako inexplicably felt that the other person was a bit too familiar with her.

It must be due to her physical condition, right?

After all, all the men in the world are captives of this witch.

Thinking of this, Koizumi Akako smiled with a relieved expression, her laughter sharp. "In that case, let's have a competition and see who gets a higher score tonight."

"?"

Upon hearing Fujino, Fujino frowned, narrowed his eyes, and stared directly at Koizumi Akako with his dark pupils.

What does this witch mean? Is she trying to steal my prize money?

Probably not, since they're not short of money.

He probably just wants to settle things with Nakamori Aoko.

However... this has already conflicted with his interests.

Absolutely not!

Thinking of this, in addition to his original depth, there seemed to be a hint of... hostility in his eyes.

Koizumi Kurenai was startled when she met his gaze.

What's wrong with this guy?

I don't think I've ever offended him...

As the heir to a magic society, she possesses extraordinary innate perception.

Yes, there was definitely hostility in those eyes!

And it was a deep-seated hostility... the kind that makes you want to kill someone!

No way! How could I, as a member of the Red Magic Society, possibly lose to someone in terms of momentum!

"Now Aoko you've teamed up with Fujino, Kaito, I'll take care of Kaito... Wahahaha!"

As she spoke, she grabbed Kuroba Kaito's arm and quickly left the scene.

Yes, this is definitely not because they were scared off by the other side, but a strategic retreat!

After the two left, Nakamori Aoko lowered her head slightly.

After a moment of confusion, her pupils returned to the cable car they were riding in, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Ran stared at Aoko's smile, momentarily stunned, feeling a sense of familiarity with the scene.

"What?! That red-haired girl is the one who stole Aoko's childhood friend?"

Sonoko, on the other hand, became indignant, showing an expression as if she were furious.

"You actually really want to team up with Kuroba Kaito, don't you?"

Amidst Yuanzi's indignant murmurs, Fujino stepped forward and calmly asked Aoko.

"No, that's not true."

Nakamori Aoko awkwardly defended herself, "I'm just happy that someone finally likes him..."

Are you happy for him?

Fujino gazed at the cable car moving forward in the distance and said meaningfully, "Sometimes, gentle kindness only hurts others and yourself."

"Well... let's not talk about that anymore."

Aoko perked up. "Let's practice quickly! We absolutely can't lose to those two!"

"That's enough practice for now."

Fujino shook his head.

"Well?"

"When it comes to skiing, rapid progress isn't about hard work and practice, but about dedication..."

After saying that, Fujino turned and walked towards the hot spring where they were staying. "Take a rest. There's still a long time before the skiing event starts. There seems to be a hot spring here. Maybe soaking in the hot spring will help you digest what we just taught you and make your skiing skills improve a lot."

"Oh..."

Nakamori Aoko seemed somewhat puzzled by Fujino's sudden action.

But I always feel that it makes sense inexplicably.

Inside the men's soup.

"Is this a hot spring?"

Soaking in the hot spring water, Fujino felt much more relaxed, but after thinking for a moment, he added, "It feels similar to a hot spring in Northeast China."

To be honest, Fujino really couldn't see any difference. Given his current physique, he should have been able to detect even the slightest changes.

But nothing changed, and there was nothing to say.

Perhaps it requires prolonged soaking to be effective?

Fujino shook his head, then began to think about the evening skiing activity.

Given the current situation, even if he were to participate, he might not necessarily win.

Since it's tandem skiing, if one person can't ski at all, they're completely useless...

In contrast, consider Kuroba Kaito and Koizumi Akako.

Although their individual skills were not as good as his, their combined skiing skills far surpassed those of his and Nakamori Aoko's team.

"Given the current situation, we have no choice but to find another way..."

Fujino pondered for a moment, chin in hand, and quickly found a solution. "Anyway, I'm only participating in the competition for the prize money and invitations... In that case... why not..."

Thinking of this, Fujino's face revealed a shrewd businessman's smile, much like the third fold-eared fox living in Tushan.

Soon, as sunset approached, the event was about to begin.

Everyone who participated in the event received a costume to represent their respective character.

Following Nakamori Aoko's idea, Fujino dressed up as Kaito Kid.

"Fujino- Senior! You really look like Kaito Kid when you dress up as him!"

Sonoko looked at Kaito Kid, who had just come out of the dressing room, with a hint of excitement.

"Although I've never seen Kaito Kid..."

Ran chuckled softly, "But it feels just like Kaito Kid himself."

Conan, standing to the side, observed Fujino and fell into deep thought.

He had seen Kaito Kid with his own eyes.

Fujino is not just similar, he's practically identical!

If he hadn't fought alongside him before, he would definitely be full of doubts now, plus a football to serve him a lesson.

Does it look like it?

Fujino turned his head and glanced at the full-length mirrors around him, then fell silent.

Turning his head, he saw Conan staring at him with his glasses flashing white light.

"..."

Okay, here comes another inexplicable setting.

"Kaito Kid!"

Just then, a commotion from a woman's voice suddenly came from behind.

Fujino turned his head and saw a large group of girls gradually approaching him...

Blanch!

In the corridor, a figure dressed in a white suit and white cloak sped along, followed by a large group of girls.

Wearing a Zuli Jian shirt, he moved with incredible speed, quickly leaving the girls behind around a corner.

"I'm just wearing Kaito Kid's clothes, is it really that big of a deal?"

Leaning against the corridor wall, Fujino panted and complained.

After a long chase, he finally figured out why those people were chasing him.

So they mistook him for that kid Kaito Kuroba!

"Kaito Kid!"

"Oops!"

Upon hearing this, Fujino frowned and looked around.

After discovering that the area was near the male dormitory of Ekoda, he knocked on the door of the room closest to him.

"Please come in!"

Fujino pushed open the door, and what came into view was Kuroba Kaito, a boy who was afraid of fish and wearing a blue school uniform.

Good heavens, a bucket?

"It's you?"

Kuroba Kaito Fujino as he opened the door and said something in surprise, feeling that something was off.

Fujino listened to the commotion outside the door and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the girls leave.

"It must have been Aoko's idea, right?"

Kuroba Kaito sized up Fujino's white suit and white cloak, saying something like, "Inspector Nakamori and Kaito Kid are sure to win the competition."

"Yes, she dressed up as Inspector Nakamori."

"But your outfit... really does look a lot like Kaito Kid."

Touko finally figured out what was strange... Fujino's disguise Kaito Kid was just too convincing!

"Is there?"

"Of course it looks like it."

He is the real Kaito Kid. If he says he looks like him, how could he not?

"By the way, how about we make a deal?"

At that moment, Fujino suddenly mentioned it.

"Trade?"

Kuroba Kaito was puzzled upon hearing this.

Fujino turned his gaze to Toko and said meaningfully, "Give me 50,000 yen, and we'll switch identities."

"Well?"

Kuroba Kaito gave a strange look. "Hey, hey, hey, do I have to pay to switch identities? Why do I have to pay 50,000 yen?"

"Ms. Konno said that the champion of this competition will receive a prize of 50,000 yen and an invitation ticket."

Fujino explained, "To be honest, my purpose in participating in this competition is to win the prize money and invitation tickets."

"Nakamori can actually ski, but he just didn't have the right person to guide him, and that right person is obviously you."

As he spoke, Fujino chuckled, "Judging from the current situation, even if I team up with Nakamori, we won't be able to win... If you team up with Nakamori, you'll definitely be able to easily win the 50,000 yen prize."

"We haven't known each other for very long, have we..."

Kuroba Kaito was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. "You've figured out so much in such a short time."

"Don't forget, I'm a detective."

"You detectives are really terrifying."

Not only is his observational ability terrifying, but his abacus skills are also incredibly sharp.

After thinking for a moment, Kuroba Kaito agreed, "Alright, deal!"

Afterwards, Fujino handed over Kuroba Kaito Kid costume and changed back into his classic black trench coat and black suit.

He paused, then continued, "But you have to go skiing with that guy Hongzi in my place..."

"Hongzi, is that the red-haired girl?"

"That's right."

Kuroba Kaito nodded. "Well, anyway, she wants me to play the Yeti, so if I don't show my face or speak, no one can tell the difference."

"Well..."

Fujino pondered for a moment, "If I go skiing with Koizumi, you'll have to give me an extra 50,000 yen."

"Make a deal!"

Kuroba Kaito readily agreed.
