Chapter 853: Chapter 833: Stubborn Virus
Song Lan felt that the atmosphere was like when a game suddenly pops up a message saying "This is a significant choice, please choose carefully," but because he had been skipping through the dialogue, he was completely clueless about what happened before.
That’s why he disliked text-based games.
If he had to play a game, he still preferred the easy-going, building and development type.
Of course, that was provided there were no elements of pay-to-win involved.
However, reality was more cruel than text-based choices; once a decision was made, there was no chance to reload and start over.
After he had given a positive response, Lu Xiang remembered his choice.
Her gaze shifted back and forth between Song Lan and the Dancer several times. After the coldness passed, she began to ponder, and moments later, Lu Xiang felt she understood Song Lan another step better.
This Dumb Bird liked watching people dance and was interested in the rubber clothing elements.
Even though Song Lan was slow on the uptake, he now guessed the real question Lu Xiang had posed earlier, but he swore that before his exquisite reasoning began, these Dancers hadn’t arrived at the square yet. At the time, he had been gazing thoughtfully at the silhouettes of people following a parade float. It’s worth mentioning that their dress was very normal, just the typical pedestrian type.
"Supervisor, I request to answer again," he said.
"It’s said in books that the answers from the subconscious often reveal the most genuine side of a person."
Lu Xiang quickly calmed down, "If these are your interests, you should express them bravely."
Dance wasn’t hard to learn.
With her salary, buying some clothes was even less of a concern.
"Truth be told, I was just lost in a deep state of deduction, which is a special ability exclusive to true detectives. In that state, I’m completely oblivious to what’s happening around me."
"Oh? Which detective is like that?"
"Mori Kogoro."
Song Lan, with bold assumptions and cautious verification, believed that Mr. Mori Kogoro was not only unaware of what happened around him during his deductions, but he couldn’t even remember how he solved the cases afterwards.
This was the life as a detective he longed for.
When a case arose, all he needed to do was find a place to sleep, and upon waking up, even the most bizarre cases would be solved on their own.
"Mr. Mori Kogoro doesn’t know what’s happening around him because someone stabs his neck with an anesthetic needle. Nowadays, it’s not hard to obtain an anesthetic needle. Do you want me to stab your neck too?"
Hearing this familiar name, Lu Xiang couldn’t help but respond.
Influenced by Song Lan, they had more and more common topics, but the only thing that Lu Xiang regretted was that she still had no clue who Diogenes and Diaboro, the philosophers Song Lan often mentioned, really were.
In the face of the responsive Lu Xiang, Song Lan opened his eyes wide in shock, "You actually know about Mori Kogoro!"
"You mentioned him during our chats, so I had Bai Zhu help me look into it."
As expected, that name belonged to a comic from the Pre-war World. She went through a lot of effort and spent a hefty sum to acquire what was said to be the only surviving collector’s edition disc from a collector. "I had just finished the Spongebob series at that time and was looking for something new to watch."
It was only then that Song Lan remembered Lu Xiang’s leisure interests; their home was still full of Spongebob plush pillows and cartoon figurines, which were gifts that came with the collector’s edition CDs she bought from the collection site.
As an Audience of "Detective Conan," Lu Xiang thought that Mori Kogoro was not usually regarded as a mentor in detective work.
However, she finally found the reason behind Song Lan’s often striking deductions.
If one delved into the heart of the Dumb Bird, they would realize that he didn’t actually admire Mori Kogoro; he just wanted a legitimate reason to sleep soundly during a case or work.
Lu Xiang had no intention of dwelling on this issue; she believed time would prove everything.
It was like Song Lan’s Jinx Star physique; no matter how much he resisted, even using schemes like framing others, in the face of hard facts, all arguments were feeble—he had only arrived in District Four a few days ago, and the whole city had turned upside down because of him.
The Bureau of Unusual Case Investigation and the Law Enforcers were all working overtime, with Agents patrolling the streets.
As for Song Lan’s interests and preferences, as long as she bought the clothes and appeared unexpectedly before him, Song Lan’s first reaction would be enough to prove everything.
But there were other issues to address at the moment, "So, what’s the result of your deduction this time? Which wrong answer did you eliminate, Dorago Safron or Phine?"
After all, someone who had been dead for many months couldn’t possibly appear in District Four and establish a biological laboratory.
Song Lan indignantly said, "I have to criticize; it seems there’s no more trust between people in this day and age!"
"Have you heard the story of ’False Alarm’ then?"
Lu Xiang was unmoved, "When you used the process of elimination to help Guan Lili rule out Chai Ke, you should have anticipated this day would come. Fortunately, you still have a chance to make amends. Go on, I’m listening."
"Monica’s father found her just now, hoping to take her away from this city to live where no one knows them. Meanwhile, Qi He, still in a coma, made a phone call to Gustav, informing him to evacuate District Four immediately. So, I’m suddenly very curious, what is their ultimate goal?"
