Genshin Player in the World of Detective Conan

"I am Yin Kong, and I'm also very pleased to meet you both."

"Yin Kong?" Takagi asked, a bit surprised, "Are you a foreigner?"

"That's right," Yin Kong nodded lightly, showing no awareness of being an undocumented immigrant facing police officers. He continued naturally, "So, I've only been in Beika for a short while and don't know the specifics of the competition."

"That's a real shame, but Yin Kong, your Japanese is so good, I can't tell you're a foreigner at all."

Facing Takagi's astonishment, Yin Kong simply smiled without speaking.

Of course, he hadn't studied Japanese before. Before transmigrating, his grasp of the language was limited to lines like "Daga, kotowari masu" (The premise is flawed), "Sore wa dou ka na" (I wonder about that), and "I'll take you to the sea" (a misheard line).

However, after arriving in this world, he had mastered Japanese, English, and Korean without a teacher, which had saved him a lot of trouble.

After his exclamation, Takagi's expression quickly fell, and he muttered to himself:

"I thought-- Wait! Did I mention that I wanted to inquire about the competition?"

Sato shook her head, indicating Takagi hadn't misspoken. She looked at Yin Kong, also curious how he knew.

Yin Kong casually explained:

"Because Mr. Takagi's thoughts are basically written all over his face."

He touched his face, feeling a bit doubtful about himself. Were his expressions that simple and easy to read?

He could figure that out too?

Sato Miwako, standing nearby, nodded in deep agreement upon hearing this.

Indeed, her junior colleague was far too simple-minded, the type who would help someone count money even after being swindled.

Speaking of which, Sato also asked curiously:

"So, what's special about this competition?"

Takagi immediately replied:

"It's because of the picky taste. I heard the manager used a perverted spicy broth last year..."

As he explained, the scene of him receiving the entry ticket flashed through his mind.

Two days ago, a colleague from the traffic division had confidently told him that Officer Sato liked spirited, manly men the most.

If Takagi could show enough manliness in this competition, he would definitely leave a very good impression on Officer Sato.

Yin Kong, of course, couldn't guess these thoughts. He realized with a nod, "So, rather than appetite, this shop also tests everyone's tolerance for unusual flavors?"

Sato Miwako also exclaimed in surprise, "You're participating in a competition like that? Takagi, you actually have some manliness in you sometimes."

However, just as Takagi was scratching his head and grinning foolishly at this compliment, a loud noise suddenly erupted behind them.

The three of them turned sharply and saw two burly men with rough faces and imposing physiques already wrestling each other.

Tables and chairs were knocked over, and the startled customers fled, turning the once lively ramen shop into chaos.

"What's going on?"

From the surrounding shouts of dissuasion and discussion, Yin Kong quickly learned the identities of the two burly men.

They appeared to be professional sumo wrestlers, named Kuroda Taro and Asamura Tsukasa, and they had a long-standing grudge.

After an unexpected encounter at the ramen shop, they started arguing, which escalated until it finally turned into the brawl they were witnessing.

However, Yin Kong could no longer process this information.

Because he was shocked to discover that the two wrestling sumo wrestlers had quickly cleared a large area, including the spot where the exceptionally beautiful long-haired girl, who had made an impression on him earlier, had been sitting.

Yet, their fight hadn't harmed the incredibly beautiful and serene girl; they had passed right through her.

Just like the [Head Spider]s crawling around the shop!

Chapter 3: Persuasion Through Reason

Yin Kong barely managed to suppress the urge to curse loudly.

These two sumo wrestlers were clearly not ghosts, as Takagi, Sato, and the other customers had all seen them.

In other words—

The untouchable, picture-perfect black-haired girl, and the table and chairs she was sitting on, were actually ghosts?!

If he had let his lust get the better of him, approached her, or sat down on a non-existent chair without noticing the anomaly, the consequences—

At this thought, Yin Kong couldn't help but feel a sense of lingering fear.

He had almost, just barely, avoided exposing himself.

However, along with the lingering fear, new doubts inevitably arose in his heart.

If they were ghosts, why weren't there any level indicators above their heads?

If there had been a deep red, high-risk warning, no matter how they disguised themselves, he wouldn't have been fooled.

Yin Kong soon found the answer to this question—

Above the girl's head, a very thin, easily overlooked spider silk hung down from the ceiling.

And at the end of the silk, naturally, was the [Shadow Spider Queen] coiled on the ceiling.

So, this wasn't a lone monster like a human-faced spider, but rather a part of the [Shadow Spider Queen], just like the heads by the cash register.

Since it wasn't an independent entity, there naturally wouldn't be any levels or health bars.

The moment he realized this, Yin Kong felt the urge to turn and run again.

Monsters that scared people up close were already outrageous enough, but if these monsters also had brains, or even learned to lure people into traps, the terror level would multiply several times over!

The reward money was tempting, but his own life was clearly more important.

However, just as Yin Kong was thinking this, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his ear.

Then, the familiar purple quest prompt automatically popped up:

Daily Quest: [Hi! Calm Down!]

But then again, judging by the [Shadow Spider Queen]'s actions, she didn't seem that smart.

At least, if it were Yin Kong, he would have chosen a place more suited to a girl's temperament, like a library or a cafe.

At this moment, he would also imitate the surrounding customers and feign panic.

Yin Kong changed direction and quickly walked towards the source of the commotion.

In fact, while he was spacing out, Takagi and Sato had already rushed forward:

"Gentlemen, this is a public place, please calm down--"

Unfortunately, the two who had gotten hot-headed had no intention of listening to him.

Although Takagi usually exercised, he was no match for two professional sumo wrestlers.

Kuroda Taro on the left simply pushed Takagi impatiently on the shoulder, and the officer spun around like a top before falling backward.

If Sato hadn't grabbed him in time, poor Takagi might have fallen to the ground with a "splat."

"You two!"

Sato Miwako's expression immediately turned hostile. After all, in her eyes, Takagi was under her protection.

However, just as she was about to pull out her badge, she suddenly saw Yin Kong walk past her and straight ahead.

Is he going to break up a fight?

Sato froze, an unbelievable thought flashing through her mind.

Takagi's recent experience had vividly proven to everyone that mere verbal dissuasion was useless against these two who had been blinded by rage.

Regrettably, Yin Kong looked like a frail academic, even less sturdy than Takagi.

"Wait, Yin Kong, don't go!"

But before Sato could finish speaking, she widened her eyes in shock.

As Yin Kong walked over, the two sumo wrestlers were already hunched over, their upper bodies locked together as if in a match, straining against each other.

Judging by their flushed faces, they were clearly exerting all their strength.

At this moment, Yin Kong reached out and placed his hands on each of their shoulders--

What was he going to do?

Under everyone's incredulous gazes, the two burly men who had been locked together were actually pulled apart by Yin Kong.

Kuroda Taro and Asamura Tsukasa's expressions were as if they had seen a ghost, because they could both directly feel how terrifying the force pressing on their shoulders was.

That force was something they couldn't resist at all.

More importantly, Yin Kong wasn't fighting them one-on-one, but was holding both of them down simultaneously!

Was this still human?

As professional athletes, they naturally understood the exaggeration of this strength even better.

Sumo was not a sport that relied solely on strength, but if a person's strength could reach such an exaggerated level, it would be enough to render all techniques meaningless.

Seeing their gazes focused on him, Yin Kong smiled slightly:

"Gentlemen, could you do me a favor and not fight here?"

While Asamura Tsukasa was still stunned, Kuroda Taro felt insulted and roared, chopping at Yin Kong's ribs with a hand strike--

The move was fast and vicious, accurately hitting Yin Kong's weak spot.

But before Kuroda Taro could celebrate, he found his opponent barely moved.

Let alone pain, Yin Kong didn't even frown.

HP -91.

If Kuroda Taro could see Yin Kong's character panel, he would find that his attack had indeed dealt about a hundred points of damage.

However, compared to Yin Kong's current total HP of over three thousand, this damage was completely negligible.

Looking at Yin Kong, who remained unfazed, Kuroda Taro's eyes suddenly cleared.

You see, even a heavily built opponent would be in extreme pain if struck by him like this.

For someone as slender as Yin Kong, this blow could easily render him completely unable to fight, and it wouldn't be strange at all if even one or two ribs were broken.

In his eyes, Yin Kong was no longer human, but a Tyrannosaurus Rex wearing a human skin.

Even more unfortunately, he seemed to have angered the other party.

"I can't help it with you."

Under Kuroda Taro's terrified gaze, Yin Kong directly let go of Asamura Tsukasa, who was completely stunned, and casually took off his glasses as he shook his head, revealing a "kind" smile:

"Very well, since this gentleman doesn't like to reason, I happen to know a thing or two about fighting."

Kuroda Taro's body trembled, and a forced, ugly smile appeared on his fleshy face:

"Y-you can let this go, right?"

"At this point, are you joking?"

Chapter 4: The Ramen Shop Murder Case

A few minutes later, when the ramen shop owner rushed over, all he saw was Kuroda Taro and Asamura Tsukasa, who had been completely subdued, and a refreshed-looking Yin Kong.

Although Mr. Lu Xun once said that the strong draw their swords against the stronger, and the weak draw their swords against the weaker, occasionally teaching these troublemakers a lesson could indeed vent a lot of accumulated negative emotions.

However, the others who had witnessed the entire process couldn't help but look at Yin Kong with a mix of admiration and strangeness.

Watching Yin Kong sit down beside him again, Takagi felt both envious and regretful:

"Yin Kong, you're too amazing! Are you a martial artist?"

Compared to him, he had messed up again.
