Chapter 44

The terrifying scene lingered like an immersive experience.

Originally, she was still a bit afraid of Hoshino Mu before coming to the temple.

But his rescue during the crisis last night.

She could clearly see his cold face.

And could breathe the cold scent coming from him.

Although cold, it was not without warmth.

It was completely different from the way he "cruelly" murdered her in her dream.

Plus, in the second dream, she and Hoshino Mu went from dating to marriage.

If one didn't count the ending where he was murdered.

It could also be considered a beautiful dream.

Therefore.

After a night of meditation.

Suzuki Sonoko just thought she cared too much about him.

That's why she dreamed of him every day.

And.

Her love for Hoshino Mu was greater than before.

It was about to turn from a secret crush to an open one.

As if it was about to overflow.

Edogawa Conan suddenly jumped out, using his childish voice:

"That's right, Hoshino-niichan, you are so amazing!"

Edogawa Conan raised his hands high.

"How did you deduce it just based on the kayak and the waterfall?"

He looked at Hoshino Mu with admiration.

Hoshino Mu looked at Edogawa Conan beside his feet.

If he hadn't known in advance that the other party was Kudo Shinichi, who was 17 years old.

He would have really been fooled by his "innocent and naive" cute look at this moment.

"Just like what Mr. Mouri said."

Hoshino Mu responded in a flat tone.

His calm look made it seem as if he had seen through this case long ago.

"Wow! This is too amazing!"

Conan still wanted to continue asking.

"But your case-solving time was even shorter than Uncle Mouri's, why..."

"You two, excuse me!"

Hoshino Mu did not answer his next question.

And politely nodded to the two of them.

Then turned and left.

"Ah! So handsome! Hehe..."

Hearts appeared in Suzuki Sonoko's eyes.

She held her cheeks with both hands.

And kept making lovesick laughter toward Hoshino Mu's back.

"Hehehe..."

Edogawa Conan's mouth kept twitching.

He was very helpless.

He looked at Suzuki Sonoko beside him with his half-moon eyes.

Hoshino Mu returned home.

After tidying up for a while, he lay on the bed to check the point statistics.

【Today's points: 1500 points】

【Accumulated balance: 3000 points】

【Total point sum: 4500 points】

【1: System gift + 500 points】

【2: Assisted Edogawa Conan in solving the case + 1000 points】

【3: Completed Black Organization task + 2000 points】

【4: Obtained evidence of Edogawa Conan secretly solving the case + 500 points】

【5: Obtained evidence of Edogawa Conan harming Mouri Kogoro + 500 points】

【6: Communicated with Edogawa Conan + 0 points】

Through Hoshino Mu's careful observation today, he discovered.

Conan was wearing a tranquilizer watch on his wrist.

And a bow tie voice changer on his chest.

These all showed that the plot had begun to get on the right track.

Plus the Mist Tengu Legend Murder Case was around episode 50.

In real life, the actual time had only just passed a week.

Dying one person a day to have multiple cases in a week.

Impossible.

This shows.

Conan's plot development does not proceed according to real time.

One cannot rely solely on anime episodes to determine the plot's development time.

Hoshino Mu frowned.

And sat up straight.

"Start simulation!"

【Yes! Starting this simulation.】

【Deducting host points, remaining points: 4000 points】

【Wish you a pleasant experience!】

【Please select this simulation personality:】

【Choice 1: Steady and calm: methodical, step-by-step, working hard toward one's goals.】

【Choice 2: Gentle and kind: generous, understanding, good at interacting with others.】

【Choice 3: Single-minded in love: dedicated to feelings, once in love, will not change.】

【Choice 4: Without desire: reaching a state of self-forgetfulness, no demands, no worries.】

Four options appeared on the panel.

The first option.

Steady and calm.

Literally.

It looks like a very stable personality.

But according to the experience of the previous three simulations.

Perhaps one cannot just look at the surface of the personality.

Standby.

The second item.

Gentle and kind.

One has to suspect.
