Chapter 19: Serialized Detective Stories
[There is nothing extra to do on the weekend, and I don’t have to work today, so I can stay at home and watch videos online. ]
[But since staying at home is really boring, I just went out for a walk. ]
[I didn’t expect that I would see a kidnapper just because I came here occasionally. ]
[Rice Flower is really a magical place. It feels like you can run into criminals wherever you go. ]
[I should be used to it after living here for more than ten years. ]
[It’s rare to encounter such a thing, so I called the police directly. Well, the police rushed over quite quickly. ]
[So I said, Kudo found the two people in the winery, go contact the police first, maybe you won’t even have the chance to be hit with a stick. ]
[Today’s diary doesn’t have so many explosive contents, after all, not every day is full of content. ]
[But yesterday I witnessed the famous scene of Kudo turning into an elementary school student. I don’t know what happened afterwards. Did he move directly into Mao Lilan’s house? ]
Mizenin Nagi, who was reading the diary, suddenly became interested in it.
“Maria, are the bodyguards keeping an eye on Kudo Shinichi?”
“Kudo Shinichi, I’ll go ask.”
Maria went to ask, and indeed, the bodyguards did not target Kudo Shinichi who had turned into a child.
She immediately asked to investigate the whereabouts of the child.
Then the answer came quickly, with a photo taken from outside the hospital to the ward.
Maria sent the photo to Michiin Nagi.
“Maria, who are these two people?”
In addition to Kudo Shinichi who had turned into a child, there was also a man with a mustache and a very young-looking woman in the photo.
“The man is Kudo Yusaku, a world-famous mystery novelist.”
“The woman is Kudo Yukiko, a world-famous actress who won many classic awards when she was young.”
“Hey~ My father’s intelligence and my mother’s love of acting are really perfectly inherited.”
From Maria’s introduction, Nagi Michiin knew that Kudo Shinichi was really the perfect successor.
He is known as the “Holmes of the Heisei Era”, but does he know that this is not a good title?
This kind of reputation often brings a lot of unnecessary troubles and targeting.
“It seems that this is really as the diary says. He is not a bad person, but he has reached the age of liking to rush, and he keeps emitting emotions about the things he is interested in.”
But she also understands why “Kudo Shinichi” is called the god of death.
Because this person really rushes to the cases he is interested in at any time.
As for whether Kudo Shinichi is the root cause of the case in Beihua City, she is very sure that it is absolutely!
But she also knew that it was probably unfair for him to be called “Death God”.
“Maria, in detective stories, do the protagonists always encounter inexplicable cases?”
“Of course. In order to keep the story going, detective stories will definitelyI encountered many bizarre cases. ”
“Aren’t detective stories built up by cases one by one?”
“However, most detective stories focus on the content of the story. The suspense and reversal of the story content are the interesting parts of the detective story.”
Sanzenin Nagi looked at Maria with some surprise.
“Maria, you know a lot about these things.”
“Because I also read some books when I have nothing to do. In the big library, you have accumulated a lot of materials for drawing comics. When I am free, I will also clean them up and find some books to read.”
Maria’s answer is also reasonable.
The work of a maid is very complicated, especially when she is a maid for Xiao Nagi. In addition to daily cleaning, the biggest problem of a maid’s work is that she often has to face Xiao Nagi’s sudden “spur of the moment”.
Maids also need a time to vent and relax.
So, occasionally reading some interesting novels is also a small interest of Maria as a maid.
But after she finished speaking, Maria looked at Nagi with some subtlety.
“So, do you think that Kudo Shinichi is the protagonist of a detective novel?”
“No, I don’t think it’s a detective novel.”
Sanzenin Nagi denied it directly.
“Detective novels don’t give rise to titles like “Death God.”
“Which detective novel can give the protagonist such a title? How many people have to die?”
“Indeed.”
Maria also thought it was nonsense.
If a detective novel can have so many dead people called “Death God”, then this detective novel is definitely a shit work.
“So, I think it should be a manga, or anime.”
This sudden gasp made Maria’s breathing stagnate.
“Detective comics and anime… this dead person is also serialized?”
“So that’s why that person called him “Death God.”
“…Indeed.”
It was well-founded, so Maria couldn’t refute it.
“Considering the situation in Beihua City, I gradually understand why the crime rate in Beihua City is so high.”
Sanqianyuan Nagi was a little speechless, but she seemed to have found the answer.
“It’s just that the crime rate of the entire island country is put in one point, just to send some cases to the protagonist.”
“…”
Such an answer is really speechless, but it seems to be true in reality.
“The fact that Kudo Shinichi turned into a child doesn’t seem to be an end, but more like a beginning.”
“Well, the beginning of the story is that the famous detective Kudo Shinichi was beaten with a stick by a member of a strange organization, and was forced to drink a strange medicine and turned into a child. Then Kudo Shinichi used other people’s names to track down the organization and the poison, trying to turn himself into a high school student again.”
Maria’s speculation is still the same as always, and Sanqianyuan Nagi also listens to it very logically.
At the beginning, the stick and the medicine directly caused a high school detective and a strange organization to have a feud, and then it was a story of mutual game between them.
Well, that makes sense.
“No wonder he despises himself for being a TeitanHigh school students. ”
Sanqianyuan Nagi understood a little, but she became curious again.
“Maria, what kind of story do you think we are?”
“For us, it should be a story with Xiao Nagi as the theme. I think it should be more lifelike and very Xiao Nagi-style story.”
Maria thought about it, and it seemed that only the situation related to Xiao Nagi was more reliable.
“Xiao Nagi, if you want to know, you can ask directly when the time comes.”
“Yeah.”
Sanqianyuan Nagi also had such a plan.
Then she looked at the diary, and then it was time for today’s lottery.
But she had already had a pearl in front of her, so she didn’t have any hope.
