Chapter 3 Temptation With this one million, Su Beixun survived and gradually gained a foothold in the criminal world of the beginning, Su Beixun used a method similar to hit-and-run, wandering around sparsely populated areas every day. When he came across a murder scene, he extorted money on the grounds of keeping it confidential and handling the scene. Some people are just like the murderer you met for the first time. You want to eliminate the trouble in the future but end up getting killed in return. But some murderers chose to settle the matter peacefully. After paying the money honestly, Su Beixun also helped them clean up the scene as agreed. In this way, through word of mouth, Su Beixun became famous, and people would take the initiative to hire him and ask him to help with the final work without him having to come to the door himself. After becoming rich, Su Beixun started to learn various skills. It must be said that his [learning ability MAX] is so amazing that even if he only studies by watching videos on the Internet, he can quickly master it and apply it to other situations. In the past ten years, he has mastered many abilities. As a result, Su Beixun's business became more and more extensive. From handling scenes, formulating murder plans, to providing explosives, and even performing assassinations himself, in just ten years, he made a huge name for himself. The price he paid was that he was targeted by the local police in Hokkaido! There was nothing he could do about it. In the early days, he didn't want to miss any opportunity. He was lucky to make some money. How could he be so picky? So it was natural that he was suspected when he frequently appeared on the scene. When he received more commissions later, he did choose to do some work that did not require him to expose himself, but the sad thing was that the progress of the world goal came to a halt. Legends cannot stay behind the scenes! In short, in order to achieve the world goal, he needs to constantly make his presence felt, so that others "know that you did it, but there is no evidence to arrest you."
It's a bit cheap, but there's nothing I can do about it. The reason why he came to Beika City was because he had made enough of his presence in Hokkaido, so the progress of the mission slowed down. When he came to the protagonist, I believe it would be easier to progress. In fact, it is indeed the case! Yesterday was the first order he received after coming to Rice Flower City. After accidentally meeting Kudo Shinichi and being suspected by him, the target completion rate increased gratifyingly! Moreover, after Kudo Shinichi became Edogawa Conan, the plots in his memory were also a great help to him, allowing him to build his own reputation more calmly. I rested my chin on my hand and sat in a daze for a while, and then the bell for class finally rang. There was nothing much to say about the class. With his [Maximum Learning Ability] talent, even if he spent most of the time pretending to be in a daze, his grades were fine. If he didn't have good grades, he wouldn't have been able to transfer here so easily. Time passed quickly and at four o'clock in the afternoon, the day's classes ended. After politely declining the invitations of several female classmates, Su Beixun packed up his things and prepared to leave school. He didn't join any clubs, and it wasn't his turn to do the cleaning today, so the time after school was all his own. As he walked out of the school gate, Suzuki Sonoko called him from behind. "Student Su Bei, do you want to go play together?" Suzuki Sonoko, who was traveling with Mao Li Ran and Kudo Shinichi, invited. Although she is a firm supporter of Maori Kudo CP, and she is happy to tease them, she will get tired of eating dog food all the time! It just so happens that Su Beixun is alone and has few friends now. As long as he can feel her kindness, he will definitely be impressed. Then... Suzuki Sonoko, who had even thought of what to name her child, laughed with her tongue sticking out. Seeing this, Mao Lilan hurried over to remind her best friend to pay attention to her image. Kudo Shinichi, who was standing next to him with a cocky look on his face, had unhappiness written all over his face. He had been planning to go to the crime scene after school to investigate, but he didn't expect to meet the real culprit at the school gate. If Su Beixun accepted Suzuki Sonoko's invitation, how could he investigate? He couldn't just leave the two girls to the "dangerous elements" and do it alone, right? Just when Kudo Shinichi was worried about gains and losses, Su Beixun rejected the invitation: "Sorry, Suzuki, I have something else to do today." "Huh? This can't be your excuse to fool me?" Suzuki Sonoko glanced at him. Su Beixun explained: "As you know, I just transferred here from Hokkaido a month ago. I usually live in a hotel. Today I want to go look at houses." "Huh? Has Su Bei been living in a hotel with his parents all this time?" Xiaolan was a little curious.
Su Beixun shrugged: "I'm an orphan and I live alone." "Ah?!" Mao Lilan was shocked and apologized repeatedly. Su Beixun waved his hand to indicate that it was okay. Mao Lilan said: "In this case, let's go with classmate Su Bei to look at the house!" Suzuki Sonoko also nodded repeatedly: "That's right, you are unfamiliar with the place, so let us locals help you check it out!" Su Beixun gladly accepted and thanked them for their kindness. Kudo Shinichi, who was standing next to him, was still worried, so he followed. On the way, they chatted for a while. After all, they were classmates and had common topics. Except for Kudo Shinichi, the atmosphere among the remaining three people gradually became harmonious. "Ah, we're here!" Su Beixun suddenly stopped. "Huh? Here?" Ran Mouri came back to her senses from the casual chat and looked at the familiar scenes around her with some surprise. 2-23 Beika-cho! Next door to Kudo Shinichi's family! Su Beixun pretended to be confused: "What's wrong, Mao Li?" Mao Lilan said hurriedly: "No...it's nothing." Suzuki Sonoko complained: "I just didn't expect the place you were looking for was near this mystery geek's house." Su Beixun pretended to be surprised: "Really?" Kudo Shinichi had been frowning since just now. He was wondering if Su Beixun did it on purpose or by accident? So he simply asked, "Why did you choose this place!" Mao Lilan heard the questioning tone in his voice and hurriedly pulled him. Su Beixun was not angry, and explained with a smile: "There is no other way. There are not many houses to choose from near the school, and compared to housing in the community, I prefer this kind of single-family house with a yard." is it? Kudo Shinichi thought about it and felt that it was true. There was no reason why Su Beixun would deliberately move near him. Maybe he was just too suspicious! Seeing that Kudo Shinichi had no problem, Su Beixun rang the doorbell first. The owner opened the door and smiled when he saw Su Beixun: "It's you, come in first, I've basically packed everything and I can complete the handover today." Su Beixun said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Matsushita." Mr. Matsushita waved his hands and said, "No, I should be the one thanking you. I changed jobs and was worried that my residence was too far from the company. I didn't expect you to be willing to pay me first and give me a month to buy a house near the company and move." "Hey? Aren't you renting a house?" Suzuki Sonoko was surprised when she heard their conversation. Knowing that Su Beixun was an orphan, she had a preconceived notion that he lived in poverty, but she didn't expect that he could buy a house right away. Seeing the three of them with incredulous eyes, Su Beixun smiled and said, "In the next few years, I will buy a house in Beihua Town to live a more stable life... As for money, I earned some from my part-time job in Hokkaido." Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously, "So what do you do for a living, Su Bei?" Su Beixun said: "I can do anything. It depends on what the client needs me to do."
"Huh? Is he a detective?" Mao Lilan thought of her father and asked curiously. Su Beixun shook his head and nodded: "It's about the same. They all solve problems for others." Mao Lilan nodded thoughtfully and said admiringly: "That must be very hard!" Su Beixun smiled indifferently: "Not bad." Suzuki Sonoko, who was standing by, looked at Su Beixun's profile and began to fantasize again. It was really great to see such a handsome guy who had a rough life but was self-reliant! Kudo Shinichi decided to check the news in Hokkaido when he had the chance. If Su Beixun was doing detective work, there would definitely be reports about it. Su Beixun looked at Kudo Shinichi and secretly curled the corners of his mouth. He was very curious. If Kudo Shinichi confirmed that he was a bad guy through the report in Hokkaido, how much progress would that make to his goal? This was also the main reason why Su Beixun did not refuse to act with the three of them. As for what will happen after Kudo Shinichi is determined to be a bad guy? Haha, to be honest, if they, the righteous red team, don't have evidence, they can't do anything. Just as the four of them were lost in thought, Mr. Matsushita walked down the stairs with his last few things, handed the house key to Su Beixun, and said to him, "The agency will come to handle some formalities in a few days, but if you need, you can move in earlier." Su Beixun thanked him and watched Mr. Matsushita leave home. Then he looked around the empty house, turned around and said to the three people, "I have ordered a batch of furniture. I will invite you to come and play after the furniture is arranged in a few days... Now, as a thank you, I will treat you to a meal." Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed: "We didn't help much today, how can we let Su Bei treat us." "It's okay, it's okay." Su Beixun stretched lazily, "Anyway, I wasted your entire afternoon." After having dinner at a restaurant, at about six o'clock, the four of them said goodbye to each other. When only two people were left, Mao Lilan complained to Kudo Shinichi: "Really, Shinichi, why do you always have a sullen face today!" Kudo Shinichi rolled his eyes and said, "I was planning to investigate at the coffee shop yesterday after school, but I ended up sitting with you guys for the whole afternoon. Never mind, it's too late now, and I have a day off tomorrow anyway, so I'll just go investigate tomorrow." "Tomorrow?" Mao Lilan's tone became dangerous, "Shinichi, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, right?" "Ah? What's the matter?" "Didn't we agree on this? If I win the karate championship, you will take me to Dorobiga Land for fun!" Mao Lilan became angry and did a roundhouse kick over Kudo Shinichi's head, smashing the lamppost next to him. Kudo Shinichi was so scared that he swallowed his saliva. He looked at the stones scattered on the ground and said from the bottom of his heart: "I, I remember." (End of this chapter)
