Conan’s Unscientific Detective Chapter 200

Chapter 198: Body Enhancement

“Who exactly are you…?”

Conan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck and tried to say something more.

Fujino looked at Conan, who was kneeling on the ground, and stroked his chin.

Not knocked out yet?

It seems the anesthetic dart isn’t very effective on this kid…

Thinking this, Fujino flipped his hand and pulled out a brand-new bat dart from his portable space. He aimed it at Conan’s kidney and struck again.

No, he’s so small now, he shouldn’t have kidneys.

Strictly speaking, it should be his back.

The bat dart was remarkably effective.

Conan, who had been struck, couldn’t speak.

He felt his brain spinning, and his vision blurred.

And then, there was no then.

Conan collapsed and slept like a dead pig, completely defenseless.

Exactly like Uncle Mouri, whom he had shot countless times before.

“It seems this guy doesn’t need me to send him to the police station…”

Fujino turned his head to look at the helmeted man who had collapsed in the elevator. “This guy is really unlucky to have run into Conan, that psycho… Hope he’s okay.”

Afterward, Conan was discovered by his friends who followed him.

Haibara Ai found the anesthetic dart on Conan’s neck.

Seeing Conan, who usually shot others, get shot by his own anesthetic dart, she showed an unkind smile.

After Ayumi was rescued by the other kids, she said that she was saved by the Beika Batman.

The helmeted man was later taken away by the police, but before going to the station, he had to stay in the hospital for a while.

Just as Fujino had predicted.

His ribs were broken.

…………

In a flash, two days passed.

It was the first day of Snow King Ice City’s operation.

These two days, the time in the world of Conan continued to twitch wildly like a super gluten man.

In a blink of an eye, it was April, and then it jumped to July.

But fortunately, the renovation team didn’t seem to notice this, saying they would finish the renovation tomorrow and they did, without any delays.

Miyano Akemi also, with extreme efficiency, managed to get the business license in just a few days from the time it was proposed.

From then on, Snow King Ice City officially began operations.

Fujino vaguely recalled distant memories.

He realized that his Snow King Ice City seemed to be the first of its kind, both in his previous life and in this world.

Even if there was a certain “Snow Ice City” in this world, it should be called “Certain Flow Shaved Ice” now.

Good heavens, he had become the founder of Snow King Ice City.

…………

The interior design of Snow King Ice City’s store was slightly modified based on the images in his memory.

The brand image was a small white snowman holding an ice cube notepad, with a meaningful smile.

The shop sign above the entrance was a striking red, with white traditional characters written in a fancy font: “Snow King Ice City.”

On the first day of Snow King Ice City’s operation, many curious customers came to show their support.

Among the customers were neighbors, students from Teitan High School and Elementary School, and students from other schools who came because of the reputation.

As soon as it opened, they were shocked by the pricing.

Such good-looking and delicious drinks were only a little more than half the price of others.

They were even only a hundred, or even tens of yen, more expensive than drinks like Coca-Cola!

The students all exclaimed that Fujino was truly a good person.

He couldn’t just be called a good person; for these poor students who loved to shop and drink, he was practically a great philanthropist in the Japanese beverage market.

It should be known that, to seize the market, his average pricing to raw material ratio was usually only three to one. A 100-yen drink only earned him 60 or 70 yen.

Buying one and earning two was his usual practice back then, but in this era where the beverage industry had not yet been developed, this price, this was already a very low profit, simply unprecedented.

A true conscience of the industry.

As a result, Snow King Ice City’s first day of operation brought in 70, 000 yen in revenue.

After deducting material costs, the net income reached 45, 000 yen!

The trial operation’s results made Fujino very satisfied. If it could continue like this, the beverage store’s net income would probably reach 1.2 million yen in a month.

Of course, that was just an ideal scenario.

Normally, it wouldn’t be that much.

The main reason he could earn so much was because of the system’s 3 million yen safety net, plus zero labor and rent costs.

This effect was achieved by price crushing, the lack of other similar businesses nearby, Fujino’s own reputation, and the promotion by the Detective Boys and the Teitan Gossip & School Beauty duo.

If it were an ordinary person, the business certainly wouldn’t earn this much.

Of course, Fujino could actually sell them for more, but he felt it was unnecessary.

Snow King Ice City’s advantage was its low prices.

Losing this advantage would be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

…………

After the first day of operation ended, that night, the CEO professional mission was completed right after.

[Detected CEO Professional Mission: Entrepreneurship – Assume CEO Position; Completed]

[System Mission Reward: Three million yen, one hundred CEO proficiency points have been issued]

[Detected CEO Professional Mission upgrade, current level: Intermediate; distributable points: 1 point]

[Current balance: Nine million five hundred thousand yen]

Fujino opened the system interface, looking at the balance in his account, and immediately felt incredibly secure.

This money…

“This wave, I’m swimming in cash.”

After a sigh of emotion, he opened the professional orb exchange interface and did a delightful ten-pull.

Eight million nine hundred thousand yen.

Pull!

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: White Wolf Cigarettes Advanced Version (Purple), Death Note Pen (Purple), Chewing Gum Bomb (Blue), Body Enhancement Serum (Gold), Special Grade All-Round Enhancement Card (Purple), All Professional Points x 2, Professional Random Upgrade Card x 1, Makeup Box (Purple), Lucky Coin (Blue)]

“Golden item?”

Fujino immediately noticed that among the items he had drawn, there was something shimmering with golden light.

This 8.9 million wasn’t spent in vain…

Another gold item.

He wondered what this golden item was this time.

After all, what he currently possessed, whether it was the portable space, the hidden blade, or the Soul Lotus Seed, were all things that transcended normal common sense.

Immediately, Fujino opened the system warehouse.

[Body Enhancement Serum: A manufactured and improved product of human genetic engineering, capable of enhancing special abilities based on the individual’s actual situation.

Note: The enhanced special abilities vary from person to person, but they will absolutely not be bad abilities.

Usage: Arterial injection]

“Special ability?”

Fujino stared at the detailed description of the [Body Enhancement Serum] and couldn’t help but be stunned. “This thing is a bit overpowered…”

Fujino didn’t yet know what a “special ability” exactly was.

But based on normal common sense, since it was a special ability, it certainly wouldn’t be simple.

For example, super strength, invisibility, or even more absurdly…

Would he directly turn into a Son of Krypton?

Absurd.

Without thinking much, Fujino took out the enhancement serum.

The enhancement serum was contained in a sealed glass container, a golden solution. The solution was somewhat viscous, but it would move with agitation; it was a fluid, yet not quite a fluid.

At the bottom of the container, there was also a needle…

This should be the needle for injection.
