Chapter 9: Did I cause Conan to shrink?

"Magic Absorption."

Sizzle.

【Ding, your magic power limit has been increased. Now, using Tier-One Magic can last for thirty minutes. You have reached the limit of a Tier-One Mage. Promoting to a Tier-Two Mage will grant generous rewards; work hard, okay.】

Upgrading so soon?

Akaso Kaze looked at the soul space with satisfaction.

Because of the repeated expansion and absorption, the magic source Kishida was no longer the firm stick figure it once was.

Instead, it had become a soft noodle.

Its eyeballs and tongue hung out like a cloth bag.

It hung lifelessly on the string of the pearl necklace.

It seems I can't continue to stimulate it.

I have to wait for a while, let it recover before talking.

Can't drain the pond to catch the fish; need sustainable development.

Tropical Land.

Kudo Shinichi walked out of the tunnel with a straight face.

His eyes flashed with a thoughtful light.

"She must have had an accomplice present at the time."

Kudo Shinichi had carefully inspected the scene and indeed discovered abnormalities.

There were several blood droplets lined up in a row, presenting a special shape.

That must be where the necklace fell.

But the necklace was not at the scene.

Then the truth is only one: an accomplice helped her take it away.

As long as the accomplice is found, the entire case can be cracked.

Since that's the case, who is her accomplice?

A black shadow flashed in the distance, and Kudo Shinichi's gaze was cast over instantly.

One of the men in black who was sitting in the very back of the coaster!

Could it be him?

Kudo Shinichi followed.

In a desolate, quiet corner of the park.

Vodka looked at the bald man in the suit with annoyance.

"President, are you playing with me?"

"Where's the money?"

"How could this happen?" The bald man was sweating profusely with anxiety.

"I personally put it in the box before coming; how could it have vanished into thin air?"

"It seems you don't intend to keep the evidence of the company's arms smuggling. Since that's the case, why don't you let me hand it over to the police?" Vodka sneered.

"What right do you have to lecture me? Your organization isn't any better than me, is it?"

Bang.

A sound of falling came from afar.

Kudo Shinichi's role was over.

Elementary school student Conan appeared...

【Ding, because of you, the world's protagonist Kudo Shinichi has shrunk, pushing the development of the world. Reward: A four-story residential building.】

Huh?

Akaso Kaze, who was tasting fine wine on the sofa, was stunned.

What did I do?

How is it because of me?

System, you can't frame me.

System: "..."

Late at night, the National Astronomical Observatory of the island nation.

The researchers responsible for observation were all dumbfounded.

They were holding today's observation data.

"No way? How is that possible?"

"This universe is actually shrinking?"

"Just today, it shrank twice!"

"Should we report it?"

"Let's wait until tomorrow to see; maybe there's a problem with the instruments."

"If it's not a problem with the instruments... then it's too magical."

"This is going to break the conjecture of cosmic expansion!"

Someone secretly sent out the news.

Not long after, in a hidden place, in the darkness, a hoarse and excited voice suddenly sounded.

"How many years has it been? I have finally waited for this day."

"A person capable of changing time and space has descended into this world."

"Find him, control him, I want..."

"Immortality!"

Accompanied by the sound, the wailing of a crow suddenly rang out.

It seemed to foretell an ominous future.

"Mirror, mirror, who is the most beautiful person in the world?"

A beautiful girl stood before the mirror.

"It is Miss Redko." The mirror made a weird sound.

"Hahaha." The girl smiled like a flower.

"All the men in the world are Miss Redko's captives, except for one..."

The laughter stopped abruptly.

"Oh? Who is that person?"

The girl frowned her beautiful brows.

"That person is..."

A figure began to appear on the mirror.

Crack. ===== CHAPTER 11 =====
