Chapter 1 Xiaolan seems to understand something
Maori Detective Agency, in the dimly lit room of the four-story building opposite.
Fujino looked at the newspapers and photos strung together with red lines on the wall in front of him, his dark pupils were full of haze.
He traveled through time, into the world of Detective Conan! Not only came to the world of Ke Xue, but also lived in the legendary crime city Mihua Town, becoming a young detective! Looking at the report of "Sherlock Holmes in the Heisei Era" in the newspaper nailed to the wall, Fujino couldn't help reaching out and stroking it, and then sighed softly.
The original owner's name is Touji Fujino. His parents were assassinated and passed away quietly a year ago. With no relatives and no savings, he caught the murderer by the way in order to survive, and became a full-time detective in high school.
It's just that he's not very good at being a detective.
Unlike Kudo Shinichi, who died wherever he went, as a detective, he rarely encountered homicide cases, so he didn't gain much reputation after a year of messing around.
The only income he earns is to accept daily commissions to catch cats and dogs. Even every time his employer entrusts him with a commission at a price far lower than the market price, it is difficult for him to refuse, because this is his entire source of livelihood.
In this way, he went out early and came back late. After one year of becoming a detective, he was either looking for cats or catching dogs. He finally couldn't bear it anymore.
His body, which was already exhausted both mentally and physically, accidentally contracted a cold yesterday while investigating an affair. With a high fever of more than 40 degrees, he died suddenly in a cold windy night.
"It's so sad..."
Fujino sighed, sympathizing with the original owner's tragedy.
Judging from the memory he inherited, the original owner didn't need to be so tired, even if he went out to rent a house with his hard work, it was more than enough to live.
It's a pity that he can't let go, the only four-story building he inherited from his parents' company that went bankrupt...
You know, there is a fixed property tax in Neon. Taking Fujino's current four-story building as an example, it will collect a fixed property tax of 150 million yen a year, which is equivalent to 15 yen based on the exchange rate at that time. cny!
It doesn’t matter whether you are an adult or not in Neon, as long as the house is in your name, you have to pay taxes! The original owner can only earn [-] yen for a single entrustment, and sometimes even less than [-] yen.
Excluding ordinary living costs, at the end of the year, the original owner wanted to make up 150 million in taxes, but he still had no savings left.
Neon's tax is so cruel that he won't even spare a poor and helpless child like him.
As for renting, it's not like he hasn't thought about it...but he can't rent out a house without a guardian.
Ding Dong!
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Fujino's heart tightened upon hearing this...
You can't come here to collect property fees, right? He now has more than 100 million yuan left on hand. If this is taken away, it is estimated that this year's fixed property tax will not be able to pay! Sighing, he had no choice but to skip the one hundred square meter bedroom, come to the door, and push open the door.
What caught his eye was not the property manager in a suit with an ugly expression on his face, but a girl wearing a dark blue school uniform with horns on her head.
After pushing the door open, Mao Lilan looked at the thin and cautious young man inside the half-open door, showed a faint smile, and bowed politely: "Hello, Senior Fujino, my name is Mao Lilan, and I live here. Opposite the senior's house, in the same class as the senior... I'm sorry for the sudden intrusion, but you haven't come to school for a month, and the phone can't be reached, so the teacher can only arrange for me to come over to confirm the situation..."
Classmate, senior, Mao Lilan? By the way, the high school where the original owner attended seemed to be Didan High School... Because he went to work as a full-time detective halfway through, the original owner's grades plummeted, and he had to be demoted by the school... so now he and Mao Lilan should be in the same class.
Because of this, the original owner, who had no hope for the school, became even worse. In order to make money, he would not go to the school for a month...
"Ah...I'm really sorry. I've been taking on all kinds of commissions this month, and I really can't get away."
Fujino scratched the back of his head.
His first impression of Mao Lilan was good.
A very polite girl, with a sweet smile, very gentle, and even used honorifics for him.
"Fujino-senpai is a high school detective?"
Xiaolan was surprised when she heard the word "entrust".
"It should be said that he is a full-time detective..."
Fujino gave a wry smile, "After all, this is where my life comes from."
"So it is."
Xiaolan looked at Fujino, pale face, thin body, malnourished appearance.
Through the crack of the half-closed door, you can vaguely see the instant noodle bowls piled up on the floor in the room.
Suddenly, she seemed to understand something.
"Our family has just finished cooking. I wonder, Fujino-senpai..."
"Since Maori-san's words have been brought here, I won't stay any longer. I'm quite busy...I will go to school if I have time..."
Before she finished speaking, Fujino replied politely, and closed the door after saying that.
"Ugh?"
The gentle smile on Mao Lilan's face gradually stiffened, and then sighed after relaxing.
Fujino-senpai must have had a very difficult time after losing his parents, otherwise he wouldn't have to accept commissions to make money even if he didn't go to school.
I'm afraid senior will have to eat that kind of non-nutritious food tonight.
Really, he is obviously skinny!
I must treat my senior to a good meal some other day! Shaking her head, Xiaolan felt a little regretful.
After closing the door, Fujino silently came to the balcony, looked at Xiaolan who was walking home, and couldn't help but sigh.
After all, Xiaolan was just a stranger who lived across from him, so he took it.
But even if he traveled through time and changed his soul, the original owner of this world still couldn't get rid of the embarrassment of needing money.
In short, it is impossible to go to school. He would rather die from exhaustion outside. Fujino will never be able to set foot on campus again in his life! "Ding! System task detected!"
[Host, please keep your student status to avoid being expelled!Completing the mission will reward you with a detective career binding and [-] yen in cash! 】
Is this the system?
Fujino looked at the voice coming from his ear, and the system light curtain that jumped out in front of his eyes, and couldn't help being stunned.
After a while, he accepted the system's settings. After all, he was a time traveler, and it would be strange not to have a system.
But having said that, the rewards of this system are real!
[-] yen, catching up with his remuneration for two high-value commissions. Originally, he planned to continue to perform poorly until he was expelled from school, but unexpectedly, this system popped up and rewarded him with [-] yen! It can only be said that he gave too much! Go to school, you must go to school, even if Jesus comes today, he will not be able to stay!
