Chapter 14 - Chapter 14 I am a time traveler but I have no money

Late at night, 12:22 AM.

Leon and Conan stood on the rooftop of the restaurant, enjoying the breeze; the night view of Tokyo from such a height was indeed beautiful.

Conan stood at the edge of the rooftop and asked, "When will he come?"

"Hmm… I think he's probably already here. Maybe he's even lying on the emergency exit right now, waiting for the right moment to make a grand entrance."

Hearing Leon's words, Conan quickly turned his head to look at the small house covering the rooftop emergency exit.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Leon put his empty drink bottle back into his backpack and said with a smile, "You didn't ask! Besides, it's illegal to stop someone from showing off."

"Illegal?"

Conan, well-versed in law, looked bewildered. How could he not know that preventing someone from showing off was illegal? Could it be a law from another world?

"Article 27 of the Show-Off Law: No one shall prevent another person from showing off, otherwise they will be sentenced to six months imprisonment."

"Huh? Is there really such an absurd law?"

"Of course! Not!"

Seeing Conan's expression, Leon said with a smile, "Of course, I just made that up. How could there be such a ridiculous law as the Show-Off Law in this world?"

While the two of them were chatting idly, Kaito Kid, who was lying on top of the stairwell, was already sweating profusely.

'When was I exposed?'

He glanced at the time; there were only five minutes left until 12:30 AM. He was very conflicted now. His trick had been seen through, so should he appear now or stick to the original plan and appear at 12:30?

"Mister Kaito, please show yourself. This kid Conan doesn't believe me."

Leon shouted towards the platform above. The reason he was so certain Kaito Kid was up there was because Black Feather Quick Fight's various abilities, including his intelligence, were top-notch, but he still hadn't escaped the realm of ordinary people.

Unless he possessed spatial abilities, he could only have been lying on the platform above the emergency stairs beforehand.

At this moment, a puff of white smoke suddenly appeared on the rooftop. The smoke quickly dissipated, but a figure had appeared on top.

Conan looked at the appearing figure, and a low, captivating voice echoed in his ears:

"Under this silent night, he descended quietly before me. His eyes seemed to see through everything, revealing a fearless smile."

"A cloak and a top hat, without a single superfluous movement. His face, obscured by a monocle and the backlight, was unclear, yet surprisingly young. He could be in his thirties, twenties, or even younger!"

"He is the man I'm looking for, he is my lifelong nemesis!"

The beginning was fine, but upon hearing the last sentence, he immediately turned to look at Leon, who was whispering beside him, and said with great dissatisfaction, "Hey, don't deliberately add narration for others, okay?"

"What do you mean, 'the man I'm looking for'? You make me sound like a pervert."

Black Feather Quick Fight looked at the two, one large and one small, below. He lightly leaped down from the top floor of the stairwell's small house and walked elegantly towards them.

Just as he was less than five meters from Leon.

A prompt appeared before Leon.

"Detective Conan World exploration value has reached 31.123%, meeting the activation conditions for the minimap module."

As the prompt appeared, a square minimap appeared in the upper right corner of Leon's vision, with some avatars marked on it.

For example, Conan, Black Feather Quick Fight… and even Officer Nakamori downstairs.

'Holy crap, is exploration value a reward module? If I encounter an equivalent exchange module, won't I just take off?'

Leon also discovered another issue: the prompt said 'activate' rather than 'obtain' when the conditions were met. In other words, he already possessed these modules; they just hadn't been activated due to some special reasons.

"Gentlemen, what brings you here late at night?"

Conan, perhaps due to meeting his nemesis, said in a very showy manner, "Your trick has been exposed. If you don't leave now, the police will notice this place…"

Black Feather Quick Fight smiled calmly and reached into his cloak, preparing to use his voice-changing ability to notify the distant police to come over.

But before he could speak, Leon interrupted him, pointing to the emergency exit behind him and saying, "Mister Kaito Kid, please turn around and take a look first."

Black Feather Quick Fight didn't worry that Leon would ambush him. He turned his head towards the emergency exit. It was a good thing he looked; he almost dropped his walkie-talkie.

Because the place where the emergency door originally was, was now completely blocked by cement blocks.

"I'm very sorry, your plan to attract the police and then blend in with them doesn't seem to be able to succeed…"

Hearing Leon's words, Black Feather Quick Fight felt as if he had been seen through, but his psychological quality was extremely high. Even though Leon had exposed his plan, he still said calmly, "Heh heh, if I want to leave… Wait, where did you get that axe??"

This was not some folding parachute, nor some soft clothing. Looking at the axe head, which was the size of a human head, a drop of cold sweat finally ran down Black Feather Quick Fight's forehead.

"You mean this? I gave it a nice name: Reason…"

Black Feather Quick Fight was forced into Leon's rhythm and subconsciously asked, "Reason?"

"Exactly. Come on, let's talk Reason!"

With that, Leon pushed off the ground with force and rushed towards Black Feather Quick Fight at an extremely fast speed.

Black Feather Quick Fight's physical quality was very strong, extremely strong, but he was still just an ordinary person. With 22 health points, he was not a threat to Leon.

Even Ran, with a maximum of 37 health points, was considerably stronger than him.

Moreover, it also proved that Ran was not a normal human being. The reason Leon was fighting Black Feather Quick Fight was because he wanted to commit a 'black-on-black' crime, to 'borrow' some money from Black Feather Quick Fight.

'You… your family talks Reason like this???'

Black Feather Quick Fight was completely stunned. Looking at Leon rushing towards him, he didn't just sit there and wait. He pulled out his card gun and pulled the trigger.

Poker cards flew rapidly towards Leon, one after another. Don't underestimate these rapidly flying poker cards; their power was very strong.

However…

Leon didn't even use a shield. He directly pulled out an iron door from his backpack, and with a gentle wave, all the cards were blown away by the strong airflow.

"It's impolite not to reciprocate!"

He threw the iron door at Kaito Kid with all his might, treating it like a playing card.

'Damn, this is too exaggerated!! And where did this iron door come from??'

Black Feather Quick Fight lightly leaped into the air, and the iron door slammed heavily against the wall behind him with a bang.

'Is this person trying to kill me?'

If Leon knew Black Feather Quick Fight's thoughts, he would definitely say that he believed Black Feather Quick Fight would definitely be able to dodge it.

Hmm… if he couldn't dodge, based on the physical qualities of ordinary people in the Detective Conan World, Black Feather Quick Fight would at most only suffer minor injuries.

Black Feather Quick Fight no longer wanted to fight and quickly ran to the edge of the rooftop. He leaped, and a glider appeared from under his white trench coat.

"Farewell, everyone…"

As soon as he turned his head, he was instantly scared out of his wits because Leon also leaped from the rooftop. He had just turned around and saw Leon's smiling eyes.

Unfortunately, the distance was a bit far.

Leon was only one body length away from grabbing his ankle. Feeling his body being captured by gravity, he said without the slightest panic, "I'll find you…"

Then his body felt the call of Sir Isaac Newton and rapidly fell towards the ground.

Just as he was about to fall onto the roof of another residential building, a 'block' of water appeared under his feet, perfectly neutralizing all fall damage.

He looked up at the departing white figure.

"It seems there are quite a few plot characters around Black Feather Quick Fight…"
