Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 449 Let go a little

On the island's beaches, it seems that wherever there is ocean and sand, beach volleyball is an essential activity.

Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, having changed into their swimsuits at a self-service shop (free of charge), were playing on the beach with Heiji Hattori and Kaito Kuroba, while Conan could only watch helplessly from the sidelines.

After all, his physical condition was simply not good enough to participate in such an activity.

He still had the medicine and was prepared to take it, but he would have to wait until he got home to take it.

Now he can only watch helplessly as the person he likes plays on the beach with someone who looks like him.

At this moment, he wished that Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi were here, so that he could build sand sculptures with them.

But then again, if I were to return to my original body, I would need to say goodbye to them, right?

This is really troublesome.

"..."

On the other side, Ai Haibara sat under a parasol, her eyes fixed on the ocean in the distance, looking somewhat uneasy.

His gaze kept drifting towards the hotel, a hint of worry in his eyes.

If the movie were played at double speed, the time would probably be about the same, right?

What is Qi Ming doing now?

"ah!"

Turning around, Ai Haibara heard no sound, but a sudden chill on the back of her neck made her shudder.

"Beach volleyball, huh? That sounds interesting."

Qi Ming's voice rang out from behind, and then he handed a can of iced cola to Ai Haibara.

"Did you finish the movie?"

Haibara Ai glared at Qi Ming, opened her cola, and casually asked him a question. However, the glances she kept giving Qi Ming revealed that she was not so calm.

"finish watching."

Qi Ming nodded and sat down next to Ai Haibara, also gazing at the waves rippling on the ocean.

"So what exactly is this hidden plot you're talking about?"

"Well, that means I now understand the truth about the world."

Ai Haibara was stunned for a moment, her eyes fixed on Qi Ming.

"What does 'the truth of the world' mean?"

Qi Ming looked at Ai Haibara and chuckled.

"So, this place is actually an anime world, isn't that interesting?"

"what?"

Ai Haibara blinked her eyes in confusion.

Although she vaguely sensed that something seemed to have changed about Qi Ming...

But why does he seem to have become a bit more neurotic?

"Let's go. What's the point of sitting here doing nothing? Let's go fishing on the boat."

"You, you don't need to hold me, I can walk by myself."

"Hahaha!"

……

A designer clothing store in Tokyo.

The sales assistant always felt like she was about to take off.

For no other reason than that the handsome guy in front of them practically bought out everything in their store in one go.

"Yes, they booked everything here for me, and they booked everything there for me too."

Ai Haibara, who was standing next to Qi Ming, looked at him with some confusion.

She was now certain that something must have happened to Qi Ming a few days ago after he watched those movies.

It's strange, Qi Ming is acting quite strangely right now.

Several days have passed since they began their quarantine on the Suzuki Foundation's island.

When they heard the doctors say that they were all well, everyone burst into tears of joy.

However, not everyone is unharmed, since Kaito Kuroba is still on the island.

Because his cold hadn't gotten better yet.

Most of the symptoms have disappeared, but the cough just won't stop.

So for safety reasons, everyone was evacuated, leaving only Kaito Kuroba lying on the resort island, heartbroken and devastated.

Although it was supposed to be a quarantine, Qi Ming and Ai Haibara actually spent most of their time traveling to various places to play, except for sleeping at the resort hotel on the island at night.

It's just simple, normal gameplay.

It was so normal that Ai Haibara felt something was off.

Just like today.

Although Qi Ming had taken her shopping for clothes before, the smile on Qi Ming's face now was a little too bright.

"Sir, everything is packed. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"

The sales assistant packed all the clothes with some difficulty and smiled obsequiously at Qi Ming.

"cash."

Qi Ming snapped his fingers with a rather pretentious air, and stacks of banknotes were placed on the counter.

The sales assistant didn't care how the money came about; her eyes lit up as she stepped forward to the cash register to count it.

"Sir, you've given me a bit too much..."

"The extra amount is a reward for you."

"okay!"

Seeing this, Ai Haibara couldn't help but tug at Qi Ming's sleeve.

"what happened?"

Ai Haibara leaned close to Qi Ming's ear and whispered, "Are you really alright? I feel like you've been acting strange ever since that day."

"Have it?"

Yes, there really is!

Hearing Ai Haibara's words, Qi Ming tilted his head in confusion.

He didn't feel like he had become strange; he just felt more relaxed.

He used to think his strength was a facade, but now he understands that his strength is real.

Now that he knew this was reality, he suddenly found that he felt particularly good when he spent money.

I feel like I've suddenly become an ordinary person.

"Sir, we also offer delivery service. Could you give us an address? We can deliver it to you."

The sales assistant eagerly approached Qi Ming and spoke to him, but Qi Ming only snorted and glared at her.

"Why would I need delivery? If I don't carry your logo on my packaging, how will anyone know I'm rich?"

The sales assistant paused for a moment, but then immediately gave Qi Ming a thumbs up.

“What you say makes sense, sir. It all depends on you.”

"..."

As Qi Ming walked out of the store carrying large and small bags, he indeed felt the envious glances from those around him.

With a sudden thought, he put all the packaging bags down again, and suddenly a bundle of banknotes appeared in his hand.

As everyone watched the scene with confusion, Qi Ming had already untied the bundle of banknotes and scattered the money high into the air.

"Money's being handed out! Money's being handed out! Everyone, pick up whatever you like!"

Passersby were stunned at first, then excitedly rushed forward to grab the loot.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

"It's all mine, don't try to take it from me."

"Get lost, it's all mine!"

Ai Haibara glanced at Qi Ming, who was standing there laughing, with a surprised expression, but secretly felt relieved.

However, she soon realized what was happening.

Why did she find it normal when she saw Qi Ming doing something so abnormal?

Oh no, it seems like she's the one who's acting strangely.
