Genshin Player in the World of Detective Conan

Here, it also became the only place where he could relax and rest.

If it weren't for this, Yin Kong wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

After all, before he transmigrated, he was just an ordinary person.

For Paimon, however, being separated from Yin Kong was obviously an agonizing matter:

"Traveler, can you make an exception? Don't worry, my acting skills are great, I definitely won't expose anything."

But facing Paimon's plea, Yin Kong shook his head without hesitation:

"No means no. Unless we have a grasp on how to deal with these monsters, there's no room for negotiation on this matter."

He didn't want to regret it later due to a moment of soft-heartedness.

Chapter 10: Dawn Sword

Teleport Waypoints are lost technology from the Teyvat Continent, rooted in the game's Ley Line system.

Naturally, after Yin Kong transmigrated to this world, he didn't discover the existence of Statues of the Seven and Teleport Waypoints.

The Waypoint in the apartment now was actually a reward he received after completing the initial guidance.

It's just that perhaps due to the lack of Ley Line support, although Yin Kong could still teleport in critical moments, the Waypoint seemed to need to "recharge" after each teleportation, rendering it temporarily unusable for about a day.

During this period, not only could he not teleport, but the effect of expelling monsters would also disappear.

In view of this, Yin Kong would not rashly use this function.

"However, Paimon, don't be too discouraged. With our strength, we will eventually grow bigger and stronger, and create more glory.

At that time, we can naturally continue to adventure together."

"Mhm, I believe you, Traveler."

Paimon nodded vigorously, she never doubted this.

Suddenly, she thought of something and pulled Yin Kong to the computer, introducing him with a proud expression:

"Right, Traveler, look, I've found many commissions that meet your requirements..."

To prevent Paimon from being too bored alone, Yin Kong also spent a lot of time teaching her how to use the internet.

This way, Paimon could learn some common knowledge about this world while also helping him look for suitable commissions.

Although the internet in this era was far from as widespread as in later generations, some professional platforms had already been established.

Even though the commissions on these platforms were a mixed bag and required careful screening, it was at least more reliable than a certain middle-aged uncle who lay at home all day waiting for commissions to come to him.

"It's a shame that most of the clients refused us outright after hearing that we are just a newly established team.

But as you taught me, I guaranteed them that if the commission fails, there will be no charge at all, and finally, quite a few people were willing to give it a try..."

"As expected of Paimon, you're really capable."

Seeing Paimon with her hands on her hips, looking proud and expecting praise, Yin Kong unsparingly gave her a thumbs-up.

While the little one chuckled foolishly, he also briefly checked the information of these commissions.

As expected, most of them were trivial tasks like catching people cheating on their spouses or finding lost pets.

The rewards ranged from a few thousand to tens of thousands of Yen.

However, Yin Kong was in urgent need of funds as startup capital for the [Cunning Rabbit House], so after excluding commissions that skirted the edges of the law, like catching infidelity, he directly picked out the ones with the highest rewards first.

Then, he discovered a commission whose reward far surpassed the others.

This wasn't a small commission like catching cats and dogs, but the client stated that she suspected she was being followed recently.

If he could help her identify the potential stalker or clear her name, the client was willing to pay a reward of one million Yen or even more.

"This is it."

To Yin Kong's slight surprise, the client was actually online at the moment. His message was replied to almost immediately.

After a brief conversation, they quickly set the meeting time for tomorrow.

After leaving messages for two other seemingly easier commissions as backup options, Yin Kong let go of the keyboard.

Seeing this, Paimon immediately looked at him expectantly:

"Traveler, is it time for training again?"

Yin Kong nodded gently and led Paimon to another spacious room.

Then, a silver-white one-handed sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"This is a treasured sword that once shone like the morning sun. Whoever wields it will receive the power boost of [Feeling Good]. The luminous material on the sword has faded."

Although the [Feeling Good] in the weapon's description seemed like a mockery, its actual effect was substantial.

In the game, because it provided valuable Crit Rate and Crit DMG stats simultaneously, this [Dawn Sword] was affectionately called a "Three-Star Artifact" by players.

Through Yin Kong's attempts and explorations over the past two months, he had basically determined that critical hits in reality were roughly equivalent to that "spark" feeling.

The magnitude of the critical damage determined whether this "spark" was a true burst of inspiration or merely a fool's fleeting thought.

Although the weapon's buffs were only temporary and would disappear after un-equipping the weapon, the results of his training during this period would not disappear.

Perhaps, if he could become familiar with, or even master, this inspiration, his base critical hit rate might improve too?

It was precisely for this reason that Yin Kong specifically chose to equip this weapon for training.

It's worth mentioning that he also discovered he wasn't limited to equipping only one-handed swords like the [Traveler] in the game.

Aside from catalysts, which he hadn't obtained yet, Yin Kong could equip and use one-handed swords, two-handed swords, bows, and polearms normally, though his proficiency with them was somewhat questionable.

He wondered if this was a change that occurred after the game became reality, or if he was simply a special exception.

"Hmm, this sword feels like it should be a bit higher..."

"No, I need to put more force into this here!"

"When blocking, you absolutely must pay attention to the wrist posture—"

Paimon flew beside Yin Kong, proudly pointing out flaws in his movements.

Although Paimon was surprised that the [Traveler] had suddenly become completely clueless about combat and needed her to guide his training, she wasn't shocked.

"Anyway, you've probably gotten caught up in some weird accident again and had your powers and memories sealed, right? Don't worry, I'm used to this kind of thing, I won't laugh at you."

Even so, Paimon was exceptionally excited that she could one day turn the tables and guide the [Traveler]'s training.

Of course, she did have the qualifications for it.

Despite her own combat power being less than that of a wild boar, after experiencing so many earth-shattering major events, Paimon's perspective had long since become extraordinary.

Not only did she have the qualifications to attend classes at the [Sumeru Akademiya], but she had also mastered many powerful techniques like "[Swift Shadow Like a Sword]".

Although these techniques were too scattered and unorganized, only serving as simple references at best, they were still far superior to Yin Kong's previous ignorance of combat.

Unfortunately, Paimon wasn't a professional teacher.

So, more often than not, she could only vaguely sense that Yin Kong's movements were problematic.

As for where the problem lay and how to improve it, she found it difficult to articulate.

Furthermore, she would often get carried away with pride and come up with some novel, outlandish ideas.

"Hey, [Traveler], I suddenly thought of a great idea. You first lift one leg, stand on one foot in a circle, and then I'll throw dice from the outside to hit you. If you can avoid being hit all night, you pass..."

"Aren't you just trying to hit me?" Yin Kong asked helplessly, "And don't think I've forgotten, isn't this the method the official who tested the walking officials in Enkanomiya used?"

"What do you mean by 'heh'!?"

Despite this, whenever he had free time, Yin Kong would still train with Paimon like this.

This effort naturally yielded rewards.

When Yin Kong first transmigrated to this world, he didn't even know how to hold a sword, and he hadn't even unlocked the combat talent for [Normal Attack].

But now, his one-handed sword [Normal Attack] talent had been raised to Level 2 without consuming any [Mora] or materials, which naturally thrilled him.

It was just a pity that after reaching Level 2, Yin Kong clearly felt that the effects of simple training were gradually diminishing.

Now, he needed more professional and systematic guidance, or perhaps—

Real combat!

Chapter 11: Ono Yoko

The next morning, with Paimon's blessings, Yin Kong once again stepped into this city of dancing demons.

Of course, for the sake of his mental and physical well-being, he had arranged to meet the client at a coffee shop very close to the apartment.

This coffee shop wasn't haunted by ghosts. Although there were still unavoidable demons wandering around, it was already a sufficiently friendly establishment for Yin Kong.

When he arrived, he found a man and a woman already waiting at the designated spot. Judging by their expressions and actions, they had clearly been waiting for a while.

"Sorry to keep you both waiting." Seeing this, Yin Kong quickly walked over and introduced himself, "I am Yin Kong from the Cunning Rabbit House, in charge of your commission."

"Mr. Yin Kong, you're too kind. We just arrived ourselves."

The speaker was the middle-aged man among the two, who looked like a typical salaryman with no dreams.

He first sized up Yin Kong and, upon discovering how young he was, couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.

However, he quickly put on a polite smile and introduced himself:

"I am Yamagishi Ei. It's a pleasure to meet you."

As for the other young woman, she was wearing very classic black sunglasses and a large mask, making it impossible to see her features clearly.

"Ono Yoko?"

Yin Kong remembered her; she was a currently very popular idol, which explained why she was so heavily disguised.

However, the blue text floating above her head rendered all her disguises useless.

Ono Yoko clearly hadn't expected this outcome and asked in surprise, "Mr. Yin Kong knows me?"

Yin Kong flattered her, saying, "Miss Yoko, you're too famous. I doubt there are many customers in this coffee shop who don't know you, right?"

Ono Yoko humbly replied:

"You flatter me. I still have a lot of room for improvement."

As for Yamagishi Ei, he was, of course, her manager.

Seeing that their identities had been exposed, he also reminded them in a low voice:

"Since Mr. Yin Kong has recognized Miss Yoko, you should understand our predicament. We ask that you please keep this commission confidential."

Yin Kong nodded gently:

"Of course. You two can rest assured, we at the Cunning Rabbit House are professionals."

Ono Yoko said earnestly:

"Then I'll be counting on you."

Her disguise was certainly not seamless, but the fact that Yin Kong could see through it at a glance showed that his observational skills were quite remarkable.

After a brief introduction of his identity, Yin Kong cut to the chase and began to understand the situation:

"So, Miss Yoko, you've discovered someone is stalking you?"

As he said this, he vaguely recalled something.

Much like Sato and Takagi, this Miss Yoko, while not a member of the main cast of Detective Conan, was still a rather important supporting character.

She would be involved in many cases in the future, and it seemed this was one of them.

However, because too much time had passed, Yin Kong couldn't quite remember the specific details.

He only vaguely recalled that the stalker case this time was actually the idol's ex-boyfriend, who, for some reason, ran into her apartment and committed suicide?

Of course, since Kudo Shinichi hadn't turned into Conan yet, this murder shouldn't have happened yet.

But what truly concerned Yin Kong was the current state of Ono Yoko and Yamagishi Ei.
