Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 269 Parting

"Let's just send you here, or do you actually want to go on an adventure with me on land?"

Yun Xianhe and Hongshu stood on the small broken boat they rowed when they came here, raised their eyebrows and looked at the group of men who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

After a moment, he seemed to have figured something out and smiled meaningfully:

"You...are you going to cry because you can't bear to leave Xiao Xingyun and me?"

"Impossible!"

The captain reacted so strongly that he almost wanted to carve "I didn't" on his face.

The others also said that they did not have such emotions, but, just...

"Take some more with you."

Chef Dashan frowned and threw a bag of French fries from the boat.

Yun Xianhe reached out to catch it, and the warmth from the oil paper bag was transmitted to his palm, as if it was as hot as his heart.

"Thanks, hey! Don't be so sad! We agreed! We should give each other the most sincere blessings and smile when we leave! Don't be so sad, you have obtained such a great treasure!"

No one answered.

Captain Elrich leaned against the side of the boat with his back to Yun Xianhe, an unlit cigarette in his mouth, muttering:

"You heartless brat..."

"Are you scolding me, Captain?"

"Cough cough cough!!"

Seeing the other person choking on his saliva, Yun Xianhe shook his head helplessly and said to Hongshu:

"Look, I haven't even left yet and he's already started saying bad things about me."

"Pfft,"

"Stinky boy!"

Captain Erich was furious and stepped on the guardrail on the side of the boat, as if he wanted to jump down and fight with Yun Xianhe.

"Hey, hey, hey?! Captain! It's not possible!"

"That's right, he's leaving today, just give him some time!"

Saka and others on the side hurriedly hugged Eric to prevent him from getting so angry that he jumped down.

Yun Xianhe stuck out his tongue at the other person, sat down, rowed the boat and ran away.

"Bye Erich!"

"Call the captain brat! Don't die on land!"

"understood--"

Hiroki, who was shaken by the sudden movement of the boat, quickly sat down to steady himself.

He looked at the faces on the ship that he had been with for two months, took a deep breath and shouted:

"Goodbye everyone! Take care!"

"Goodbye little luck! Goodbye little North Star!" xN

The brave man who heard the voice turned around and waved at them with a bright smile.

"See you soon!"

The pirates on the boat stood still without moving until the small boat turned into a tiny black dot along the waves.

In the end, Eric lit the cigarette and smoked it.

Old Tom at the side felt a little uncomfortable:

"Captain, why don't you keep them?"

"...I don't know about Little Lucky, but Northstar loves adventure."

"In that case,

"He doesn't belong to the sea. ... Humph, this vast ocean can't trap him, nor can it give him what he wants."

The captain threw a half-smoked cigarette into the sea, with an expression that was hard to tell whether it was distressed or something else.

"Let's go. He might be a famous adventurer next time we meet."

Dirk stared blankly at the sea in the distance, and the continent further away that he had once escaped from.

"I can't believe they're gone..."

"Hurry up, we won't be able to leave if we are discovered."

Silk patted his shoulder.

Everyone has their own aspirations. Some chose to dedicate their souls to the sea, while those two chose to pursue the meaning of adventure.

As long as we live, we will meet again eventually.

·

"Reluctant? You are allowed to cry for a while."

Yun Xianhe looked at Hongshu who was sitting at the bow of the boat and slowly paddling the oar in his hand.

The latter paused and sighed softly:

"It's just a little... sad."

"Then shall we turn back?"

"how could it be possible."

"Since the flow of time is different, then we can increase the ratio. Those people outside will be fine."

Hongshu looked at the "serious" Yun Xianhe helplessly.

He knew that the other person was teasing him and trying to divert his attention by talking.

"Have you guessed it long ago? The purpose of my controlling this game."

"Well - probably, but I won't interfere. After all, I'm here to play games."

At this point, Yun Xianhe took out the letter they had obtained from the treasure chest not long ago from his pocket and handed it to Hongshu:

"You haven't opened it yet. Wait a minute, I haven't explained the procedure yet."

"Ok?"

The brave man put down the oar, coughed twice, and took out a small handheld firework.

"Congratulations to the adventurer for obtaining the second key fragment!"

boom!

Colorful scraps of paper fell down in a scattering manner.

Holding the envelope in his hand, Hongshu looked at Yun Xianhe who gave him warm congratulations with a smile and said:

"Thank you, thank you—let's see what the letter says."

When he opened the envelope, a small piece of strangely shaped key fragment fell out.

Hongshu carefully placed it in the backpack Yun Xianhe gave him, unfolded the letter, and cleared his throat:

"'Not bad! It's amazing that a tiny traveler could find a second island! But I promise you won't be so lucky next time!'"

Hiroki read with great emotion.

Yun Xianhe, a loyal listener, tried hard to hold back his laughter as he watched the children perform diligently.

"'I gave this fragment to the arena. Only the strongest warrior can get it! ...Hahaha! Come on! Idiots running for the treasure!' ...Why did you curse at the end?"

"Hey, I didn't write this."

Hongshu raised his eyebrows and looked at Yun Xianhe, his face full of disbelief.

The hero who was questioned spread his hands:

"I had a similar reaction to you when I first found this treasure. But these treasures are the wealth left by people after their lifetime. After death, they will be taken away by others. Not putting a curse on them is already polite."

Hiroki's mouth twitched when he heard this:

"…You're right. So we're going to the arena next?"

"I heard that the annual warrior selection is being held there."

at the same time,

Because Yun Xianhe installed a speed-changing plug-in for the simulated world they were in,

The rest of the simulated world's time has only just passed.

On the dim streets of London, a scream was heard and Jack the Ripper made his grand appearance!

Conan and Hattori rushed out first, followed by the Junior Detective League, Xiaolan, and then those rich kids.

As they walked around the alley and saw Jack the Ripper, Conan and Hattori shouted at the same time:

"Stop!" x2

Conan adjusted the button of his shoe almost like muscle memory and kicked the metal garbage on the street, trying to knock the other person out as usual.

"I won't let you get away!"

The metal junk landed in a beautiful arc.

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the intense pain made the little detective's expression distorted.

Hattori, who followed Conan, heard Conan's screams, and took another look at Jack the Ripper who had already taken advantage of the terrain to escape. He sighed unwillingly and walked quickly towards Conan:

"Hey, cheer up, are you okay?! Does it hurt?"

"Are you okay Conan?!"

Xiaolan, who had just run over, looked at Conan who was holding his feet, her face full of worry.

After recovering from the initial pain, the little detective took a deep breath, frowned slightly, and replied with a faint smile:

"Yeah, I'm fine, Sister Xiaolan."

Hattori on the side whispered to him:

"Didn't Xianhe say that these props are no longer working?"

"Haha, I forgot about it in a hurry."

Hattori looked at Conan with a half-mooned look, not surprised at all.

This is really something this person can do.

"Too bad! Jack the Ripper shows up--!"

Suddenly, a man beside the corpse shouted loudly, and residents nearby leaned out of the windows to check.

Hattori and Conan looked at each other and subconsciously went to investigate the scene.

However, the crowd of onlookers had already surrounded the area where the body was, and the two of them could not squeeze in at all.

"What are they talking about?"

"They seem to be speaking English, right?"

Ayumi was a little scared.

Although I couldn't understand it, I could sense the tension and fear in the tone.

Yusaku Kudo in the main monitoring room noticed it and asked the controller to help switch the language.

Dr. Agasa, sitting in front of the operating table, is still trying to break through the blockade of Noah's Ark.

The first generation of self-aware artificial intelligence...

"If Xianhe were here, it should be easy to solve."

Dr. Agasa touched his sparse head and thought of the technological bracelet that he had seen from Conan before, which was completely unsolvable.
