Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 432: Hallucination

It was quite shocking to hear others calling the leader "old thing" with my own ears.

Just as Toru Amuro was trying to calm himself down.

In the video, the boy with white hair and red eyes moved.

The other party supported his chin with one hand, half tilted his head, looked at the camera with interest and said:

"Should I call you an old man?"

Hearing this, Toru Amuro secretly pinched his thigh.

No, you can't laugh.

He stared at the young man on the screen carefully, and felt that his sharp-tongued look looked familiar.

Well...both have white hair, and both are fluffy, but the other's hair is obviously slightly curled, making it look softer.

The eye color is also different.

Moreover, the other person looked younger than Xianhe and was much shorter than him.

But he looks healthier than Xianhe.

In terms of looks… the person in the video exudes a harmless warmth.

But beneath that warm appearance, a frightening evil nature would always be revealed from time to time.

Although Xianhe looks gentle on weekdays, it is just an illusion that his sharp edge is hidden.

After taking off his glasses, the brave man had sharp brows and dull eyes, and looked difficult to approach.

In short, there is a big difference.

Plus the filming location was obviously in another country.

Amuro Toru quickly analyzed the difference between the two and decisively ruled out the possibility that the person in front of him was Yun Xianhe in disguise.

Then he began to be curious about the relationship between the 'Black Robe Organization' and Yun Xianhe.

In fact, this was the third person from that organization that he had actually seen.

The first is a music conductor who calls himself "Ghost".

The second one is the young man with black hair, golden eyes and fox eyes who was in the basement just now.

It seems that everyone's skills are unpredictable.

Unlike Toru Amuro, whose thoughts have diverged to other places.

The boss was in a gloomy mood after being greeted.

He stared at the images playing on the laptop computer on the surveillance screen.

There was no Bourbon standing there like a wooden stake with his head half lowered beside the air pipe.

As if seeing his reaction, the young man in the video smiled and straightened his body again:

"Let me introduce myself. You can call me 'fantaisie' in French, which means 'fantasy'. But I prefer them to call me... 'illusion'."

A slightly ethereal voice fell.

The two saw that the boy's figure in the video seemed to become transparent in an instant, and then condensed into a solid body again after a moment.

The other person raised his hand, took out a cup of steaming black tea from the empty void, blew on it slowly, and took a sip.

“It tastes okay.”

She said "hallucination", but her eyes didn't show any sign of liking her.

The other party casually threw the remaining tea and the cup to the side of the table, and all the things disappeared without a trace.

Seeing all this, Toru Amuro widened his eyes, and even the boss on the other side of the surveillance video was no exception.

As if he had seen their reactions with his own eyes, Illusion asked with a smile:

"Want to learn?"

Without waiting for the two to respond, the young man sighed and said with a look of regret:

"But unfortunately, this ability is like a poison to those who hide in the dark and spy on the secrets of heaven. As long as you get a little bit..."

The person in the video raised his hand, pinched two fingers together, and made a sesame-sized distance between them.

The pair of clear light red eyes looked over, and seemed to see the greed in the boss's eyes in an instant.

「Illusion」 narrowed his eyes and said loudly:

"It will turn into ashes! Sounds great!"

"..."

No one answered.

Toru Amuro would not open his mouth to talk to him, not to mention that this place was under the surveillance of another person.

On the other side of the monitor,

The boss crossed his fingers, clenched them into fists, and placed them under his nose, staring at the boy on the screen with half-closed eyes.

Next to him, another computer was displaying the information about "hallucination" that he had just found.

Apart from a three-inch photo with a bright smile, there were only a few words of introduction - temporarily living in the country of romance.

Name unknown, age unknown,

Home address, affiliation, place of origin, education, financial resources... all are unknown.

He had checked this information the last time he received the video from Rum.

At that time, he thought that the analysis was wrong because the image in the video was not clear enough.

Now it seems that the other party had already covered it up.

The concealed identity is like a huge mystery.

Even if the organization's most advanced technology and forces from all over the place were used, nothing could be found.

Too strange……

Is there really someone in the world who has the ability to conceal all information about himself?

It really is like an illusion.

Just as the boss was daydreaming, the "illusion" in the video spoke:

"Old man, have you found out?"

The boss' heart skipped a beat when he suddenly heard these words.

He subconsciously turned off the computer next to him and unplugged the network.

"Don't be so curious, or I might find out where you are."

It was as if he had actually seen it.

The boss on the other side of the monitor felt his hair stand on end and broke out in a cold sweat.

The "illusion" in the video chuckled and raised his hand to point at the camera, as if pointing at him from a distance:

"I calculated with my fingers, and you, old man, must not have believed it just now, so you checked me again."

The immortal BOSS was silent for a while.

The eyes hidden in the darkness looked at the boy in the video solemnly, as if questioning, as if muttering to himself:

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"Good question!"

"?!"

The boss was shocked when he suddenly got the answer.

However, the "illusion" seemed to be a prophet, answering on its own:

"What do I want to do? Well - let me think about how to answer your question."

The white-haired, red-eyed boy thought about it carefully, then nodded as if he understood.

"Just to put it simply, the goal of our organization is to let nature take its course and enjoy the world. You tried to defy fate and taint our Tao, disturbing my Tao heart, so I decided to get rid of you."

"……what?"

"Didn't you understand? Tsk, to put it simply, I just don't like you."

The boy who was so gentle and polite just now suddenly seemed to have taken off his disguise.

The other person slumped down on the chair and said in a rather rogue tone:

"I want you to experience the feeling of the power you have spent decades building up being cut by a blunt knife and disintegrating bit by bit, so as to wake up your disgusting thoughts."

"Why do you do this? I thought that at the beginning, there should be only a simple friction between you and me, right?"

Even though he knew it was just a video, the boss still asked it as if it were a conversation.

Sure enough, the other party replied to him.

"Indeed, if you weren't greedy and wanted to kidnap my people, maybe things wouldn't have turned out like this between us."

"Your Excellency has also killed many of my men recently. Isn't that enough to appease your anger?"

This is what it means to clear both sides.

But obviously, the other party didn't want to.
