Chapter 249 Beyond the Limits of Detective
-
"Why hasn't he woke up yet?"
Chris looked up at the time. It was almost closing time, but Kudo Shinichi, who was lying on the bar, still showed no signs of waking up.
"After all, I drank so much." Lin Ye said with a smile.
"It seems that this kid is under a lot of work pressure." Sylvie glanced at Kudo-san who was lying on the bar, her expression looking somewhat sympathetic.
Chris looked at Kudo's sleeping face and didn't agree with Sylvie's statement.
He likes being a detective so much, he should enjoy it, why would he have work pressure? His pressure must come from somewhere else...
At this moment, Kudo, who still had her eyes closed, suddenly shed two silent tears from the corners of her eyes.
Chris was stunned.
"What's up with him?"
Lin Ye glanced at the sleeping Kudo and said, "Maybe he had a dream."
"Dream?" Chris blinked. What did the child dream about? Why was she crying?
"He may be waking up. When he wakes up, I will drive him back and the job of closing the store will be left to you." Lin Ye ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kudo slowly opened his eyes, with a trace of confusion remaining in his eyes.
-
Lin Ye stuffed Kudo into the back seat of the car and sat in the driver's seat himself.
"Where to go? Hotel or..."
"Go home." Kudo, who seemed to be still drunk, immediately looked up and answered.
Lin Ye smiled and said, "She will definitely be very happy."
Kudo hummed softly and lowered his head again. He was silent for a while, and when the car started, he asked again:
"Does she go to the store often?"
"Occasionally, after all, she has to take care of Conan."
There was no sound from the back row again, but Lin Ye could hear Kudo's frantic thoughts.
[Enough of the detective stuff! ]
I will never be a detective again...
Kudo turned his head to look out the window, his mind full of thoughts.
He recalled the long dream he had in the bar. It was absurd yet real, like another life.
At first he was still able to stay awake and knew he was dreaming, but after a long time, he gradually forgot this and completely enjoyed it.
In the dream world, he doesn't have to actively look for cases, the cases will come to him on their own. No matter where he goes, he will always encounter cases, and the rate of major cases is extremely high.
With his secret help, Uncle Maori became a famous detective. Secretly, he also had a not-so-nice nickname, the Grim Reaper, which was a joke about the magical phenomenon that people died wherever he went.
Only Kudo knows who the real God of Death is, because even when Uncle Mori is not around, he and Mitsuhiko and the others will encounter cases when they go out to play.
He also found it strange at first, but after thinking about it, he found that he could not find any reasonable explanation, so he stopped wasting his energy.
Cases came one after another, and he thoroughly enjoyed them, enjoying the sense of accomplishment of solving the cases.
However, not every criminal is an unforgivable villain. The motives of some cases are regrettable.
The murderer was a very gentle person and killed the real evil person.
There were several cases that were deeply imprinted in his mind, and he could not forget them even though he had woken up now.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that it would be great if such a case had never happened, or if it could have been prevented in advance.
Cases continued to occur, and he gradually lost his sense of time. The memories of the other world became more and more distant and vague, like a past life. He didn't know how many years had passed until he began to feel bored.
He began to think.
Is this the kind of life I really want? Do I really want to be a detective for the rest of my life?
After experiencing countless cases, he clearly realized that the power of a detective is limited.
No matter how skilled a detective is, he can only try his best to catch the murderer after the crime occurs.
Why do such horrific cases keep happening?
It is this society that is sick, and the minds of modern people are diseased!
Only when the distorted mind is corrected, the viruses in the mind are eliminated, and the diseased mind is healed can crimes be prevented from happening.
But being a detective can’t save people’s hearts!
So he decided not to be a detective anymore. He wanted to go beyond the limits of a detective and prevent crimes before they happened.
He wants to create a beautiful world without criminals.
"Hirako! I don't want to be a detective anymore!"
When he shouted this to Hattori Hirako, his dream was shattered.
By the way, in his dream, he developed an entangled triangle relationship with Hattori Hirako and Xiaolan.
On one side is the childhood sweetheart who grew up together, and on the other side is a girl who fell from the sky with similar interests. It is really difficult to choose.
Fortunately, it was just a dream and he didn't have to make a real choice.
Oh, by the way, Hattori wasn't the only one who turned into a woman in the dream. Gin also turned into a cold and beautiful silver-haired woman who was inexplicably obsessed with him - obsessed with killing him. It was really scary.
【Why did I have such a weird dream? 】
Thinking back to the ice beauty Gin in his dream, that cold look made Kudo shiver.
The fact that Hattori turned into a woman can be explained. Perhaps I had this thought in my subconscious: Hattori is about the same age as me, and we have similar temperaments. If he was a woman... maybe...
But he totally couldn't understand why Gin turned into a woman in his dream. Could it be that he also had bold thoughts about the executioner in his subconscious?
[This is terrible! Impossible! Something must have gone wrong!]
Lin Ye, who was driving, glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Kudo scratching his hair frantically. He almost laughed out loud.
Yes, it was Kudo-san who had such a dream. It was him who did it.
After ten years of training, he has now mastered his abilities to an incredible degree. Invading the mind, controlling the world of the mind, implanting thoughts, and other operations are now a piece of cake for him.
However, he did not implant any thoughts into Kudo. He just dug deep into Kudo's subconscious mind, used his consciousness as raw material, and then combined it with his own recalled memories (about an animation work before the time travel), and made some processing to create this dream world, allowing Kudo to experience it, think about it, and then draw conclusions.
Now it seems that Kudo-san has found the answer.
The reason why he did this was because he noticed the confusion in Kudo's heart and wanted to help him.
If it weren't for this dream, Kudo would probably have to wait until the rest of his life to find the answer.
By that time, it may be a little too late, and some things may no longer be able to be changed.
For example, the growth of Conan II.
The education of children should start from an early age. As a father, how can you travel around the world all day long?
"How long do you plan to stay this time?" Lin Ye asked.
"It should be a long time." Kudo replied with a calm look.
"There are no crimes in Beika Town. Won't you get bored?"
"I have decided not to take any more cases."
"Oh? You don't take cases? Then what do you do?"
Kudo smiled and said softly:
"Like my father."
