In the world of Detective Conan, however, he was bound to the Naruto System.

Chapter 2: Becoming Hokage is Not as Important as Watching the Show

After much effort, the long-suffering courtyard wall, while not fully restored, has at least managed to become a wall again.

Rather than using this shortcut to visit Professor Agasa's house, Akutagawa Hiko felt it was better to let it serve its proper function of protecting privacy.

Today is Saturday, and Akutagawa doesn't have any odd jobs to do.

Logically speaking, Akutagawa, who did not have a proper job, did not deserve a vacation.

But the fact that he owns a detached villa comparable to the Kudo residence shows that he is actually not short of money.

The reason I do odd jobs is to kill time, because being idle all day can make you sick.

Secondly, the habit ingrained in his DNA—that he could live off his savings without any income—would make Akutagawa Hiko, who was used to planning ahead, feel uneasy.

Because he was not short of money, even when he did odd jobs, Akutagawa Hiko strictly adhered to the 9-to-5 work schedule and weekends off.

There's not much pressure, and you won't be bored out of your mind.

Unable to fall back asleep after being woken up, Akutagawa Hiko decided to give the system's tasks a try to see if they were as easy as he had imagined.

The progress bar for the long-distance running project has increased significantly thanks to Akutagawa Hiko's activities.

If it were at the ninja academy entrance exam, there would definitely be a set time limit for completing the run.

But now, the time it takes to complete it is not up to him to decide.

There's definitely no such thing as a kunai at home, but that doesn't matter.

Before his transmigration, Akutagawa Hiko had learned how to fold origami kunai countless times by following short videos. He knew all the steps by heart and folded ten in no time.

What happened next was much more troublesome than origami, in Akutagawa's view.

Kunai throwing definitely requires a target. Akutagawa Hiko couldn't handle a target like the ones in Naruto, let alone one that's so far away.

Akutagawa first covered half a wall with white paper, and then drew a target on it with watercolors.

At this size, even a three-year-old could easily hit it if thrown.

Since it's for an experiment, it naturally has to be a bit extreme.

Akutagawa Hiko took an origami kunai and stabbed it into the target.

The option for throwing kunai remains unchanged.

This was within Akutagawa Hiko's expectations. The test was on throwing kunai, not close combat with weapons. Throwing kunai at a target would not count.

Akutagawa Hiko took a step back, gently tossed the kunai forward, and the soft, powerless tip of the kunai struck the paper-covered wall before falling to the ground.

On the taskbar, the Kunai Throwing option has changed to (1/10).

A phantom white frame floated above Akutagawa Hiko's head, and a bright yellow light bulb of inspiration suddenly lit up.

I'm gradually understanding everything.jpg

After quickly completing the kunai throwing test, Akutagawa Hiko turned on his computer and downloaded an elementary school math test.

And unsurprisingly, after achieving a perfect score of 100, I saw the completed mark in the written test section.

"I'm simply a genius."

Akutagawa Hiko put his hands on his hips and hummed smugly for a while.

"Next, all I need to do is take a walk in Beika Park, and I'll be able to complete the ninja academy entrance exam and officially become a ninja academy student."

Although being a 20-year-old ninja academy student might be even more embarrassing than being a perennial genin.

But who cares? This is the world of Detective Conan, not the world of Naruto.

Just as they were about to set off, Akutagawa Hiko's stomach began to protest, rumbling and gurgling loudly, shouting that it was completely empty.

As a traditional single man, Akutagawa Hiko's cooking skills were only at the level of being barely edible enough to not kill anyone, so his refrigerator was filled with fast food.

Hiko Akutagawa heated up a plate of instant curry in the microwave, and it tasted pretty good, living up to its appearance.

Having eaten and drunk his fill, Akutagawa Hiko prepared to begin the final assessment.

Five thousand meters doesn't sound like much, after all, everyone online is a superhuman, they can circle the earth several times in a flash without even breaking a sweat.

Akutagawa Hiko could not do that; it would normally take him nearly an hour to walk 5,000 meters.

It's the weekend, and Mihana Park is crowded and chaotic, with relationships as messy as a ball of yarn played with by cats, impossible to untangle.

Akutagawa Hiko naturally chose to avoid such places, for who knows if he might be implicated in some potential cases.

As he walked, a speeding police car drew Akutagawa Hiko's attention.

Based on Akutagawa Hiko's many years of in-depth research in Detective Conan, a crime scene where the police have already arrived is undoubtedly the safest.

It's human nature to join in the fun, especially when there's little risk involved. But it's simply outrageous to go and take a look.

Akutagawa hesitated for 0.1 seconds between trying to extract chakra at home and following the police car to see what was going on. He then turned and followed the police car.

The crime scene wasn't far away; following the sound of the horn, we soon arrived at an amusement park.

Doropica, also known as Tropical Paradise.

Those of you who love laundry detergent and Ke are surely familiar with this place.

This location, plus the police car we just encountered.

Suddenly, a phrase popped into Akutagawa Hiko's mind—the roller coaster murder case.

The bloody scene, coupled with the memorable moments from the first episode, left a deep impression on Akutagawa Hiko's mind.

He couldn't remember the name of the main suspect in the case, but he remembered the murder method and related evidence very clearly.

Akutagawa Hiko glanced subtly at the crime scene.

Shinichi Kudo was conducting his reasoning with great enthusiasm, drawing gasps of amazement and admiration from the onlookers. Meanwhile, the hard-working man from the distillery, accompanied by his chauffeur, impatiently and subtly cast a murderous glare at the other passengers on the roller coaster.

Perhaps in a hurry to leave, Gin, who is usually aloof and would rather take action than talk unless he encounters Sherry, actually started randomly pointing fingers at the murderer like some bumbling detective.

It's a pity that Gin doesn't appear often, and even when he does, he's the one who creates the corpses. Otherwise, Gin's elimination method might be comparable to Mori's elimination method.

Akutagawa Hiko's observation was rather blatant; normally, Gin would have been more alert.

However, today was a special day. It was not common for two big men to ride a roller coaster together, and he and Vodka were both dressed in black.

With more people watching, Akutagawa Hiko's gaze became less noticeable.

The kitchen knife in the deceased's girlfriend's bag was clearly insufficient to be considered key evidence.

He could decapitate an adult male with a single, clean cut using a kitchen knife, and the person sitting next to him wouldn't have been able to exert force.

Human bones are much harder than you might imagine.

If the deceased's girlfriend could do that, she wouldn't have needed to be here. It's basically equivalent to killing her boyfriend in public and then putting the murder weapon in her bag.

After some deduction, Shinichi Kudo pointed and, to everyone's astonishment, deduced that the person named Hitomi was the murderer.
