Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

1 Confession
On the top floor of a top hotel in Paris, a young man and a woman sat facing each other in a window seat, attracting the attention of everyone around them from time to time.

The young woman has long brown curly hair and a sweet appearance. On the delicate face unique to oriental people, a pair of gray eyes full of aura are as cute as Yukiko Kudo in her peak period; Not lost to the popular superstar Chrissy Wynyard.

The man has a typical oriental appearance, with a smooth and fair face, showing a sharp-edged indifference, black and deep eyes, glowing with a charming color; a slender and tall stature, heroic, like a mountain that cannot be climbed , fascinating.

Against the backdrop of the gorgeous night view outside the window and the soft candlelight on the table, the figures of the two on the glass mirror of the floor-to-ceiling windows are like immortal figures in a peerless scroll.

The two tasted the delicious food and commented on the dishes they had just tasted from time to time with voices that could only be heard by each other. The atmosphere was harmonious and enjoyable.

……

Kasaka Natsumi put down the tableware, wiped her mouth lightly with a napkin, then put her hands on her chin, looked at the man opposite her intoxicated, while tasting the delicate dessert, she said, "I see, the taste after low-temperature quick-frozen..." "Ingredients The processing can be optimized, if you use..." and other thoughts.

And when the man was indulging in talking to himself, he found that he didn't get the usual "sympathetic" response, so he wanted to raise his head to ask, and happened to meet the jewel-like eyes on the opposite side.

Sensing different emotions from the magnificent eyes, the man did not avoid his gaze, but couldn't help asking: "Miss Kasaka, is there something wrong with my analysis just now? Or is there something strange about my face?" ?”

"Ah, it's not..." Kasaka Natsumi saw the other party's clear eyes, and realized that she was a bit impolite in staring directly at the other party just now, so she quickly moved her eyes away and floated out of the window.The hands that had just propped up the ceramic-like chin quickly hid under the table, and began to rub the corners of the skirt at a loss.

Seeing a pair of passers-by in the square below, Kasaka Natsumi seemed to have made up her mind suddenly, turned her head, and looked at the handsome man opposite who was slightly curious.

The moment their eyes met again, Kasaka Natsumi grabbed the hem of the skirt with both hands, intending to use up the greatest courage accumulated in this life, and said the words she had prepared for a long time and must say tonight:
"Mr. Ishino! Please be my boyfriend!"

As the beautiful words woven with beautiful voice lines blurted out, Kasaka Natsumi could already clearly hear her own violently beating heartbeat.But for some reason, there was a kind of courage that she had never had before that made her dare to meet the other person's eyes until the other person responded.

The guests dining around, who noticed this side, were aroused by the sudden scene of the woman's initiative, and watched the man's reaction, eating melons quietly.

This sudden confession caused waves in Ishino Furui's calm heart that had not been seen for a long time.A surprised expression appeared on the always calm Leng Jun's face.

Staring blankly at Kasaka Natsumi's flushed face like a ripe peach, Ishino's thoughts suddenly returned to a long time ago, when he had just set foot in this world.

……

Five years ago, 23-year-old Ishino suddenly traveled to this familiar yet unfamiliar world. Before the time travel, he was participating in the exchange study of fondant carving in Japan.

On the eve of a certain exhibition, Ishino prepared his work in order to relax. When he watched the Conan theater version of "The Magician at the End of the Century" in the hotel, he got inspiration from the "Egg of Memory" in the play. Restore this ingenious work of art.

He is the kind of person who thinks about it and has to do it with all his strength, so he went crazy for three days and two nights, and finally made his most satisfactory work so far the day before the exhibition.

Shi Ye sat down on the workbench contentedly and fell asleep, never thinking that after waking up, he would be in a strange apartment, with only the works he had just completed in front of him that he was familiar with.

At first, Ishino thought that he was caught in a prank show and was moved to another place after falling asleep. I am afraid that there is a camera filming his reaction somewhere.

But not long after, when he saw the strange yet familiar image and name of the international superstar Chrissy Wynyard and Yoko Okino, who just debuted as a member of the idol group "Earth Ladies Team", he realized that Things may go beyond your imagination.

When he found that the calls he made to his relatives and friends were either empty numbers or strangers answered, he finally found that he may have really come to another world that may be called "Ke Xue".

Although it is a bit bizarre and absurd, life is still going on, and solving the problem of survival is still the most important thing.Fortunately, in the following days, Ishino found that he seemed to have a reasonable identity in this world.

As a gifted dessert artist from China who came to Japan for exchange, I hold a position as a dessert design consultant in the famous Mihua Hotel, and the high-end apartment I live in now is located in Mihua Town, which is also provided by Mihua Hotel. There is also a special interior The kitchen is fully equipped for your own research and creation of desserts.

Normally, I don’t need to go to Mihua Hotel to work every day. Ishino is required to make dessert handicrafts in person only when large-scale banquets are held occasionally, or when important guests need to be received. Most of the time, Ishino only needs to stay in his apartment for research. For creation, it is enough to bring the results to the hotel for reporting and exchange from time to time.

Due to his calm personality and optimistic attitude, considering the unscientific time flow in Ke Xue’s world, and the possibility that the time point of the original world will not change at all when the other world travels back, Ishino quickly accepted the reality, And relying on the creative environment that I dream of now, I have devoted myself to the research and learning of dessert crafts.

……

At first, Ishino went back to his hometown in China, but what he saw was everything that was completely unfamiliar to him.

Considering that he still has a certain understanding of Japan, the main stage of Kexue World, and the possible changes in the future, but knows nothing about his hometown here, and has no place to stay, Ishino finally chose to continue living and developing in Japan.

After all, his identity and experience in this world is that of an orphan who lived in an orphanage since he was a child...

Facing his brand-new "past", Ishino had no choice but to accept it. After all, in this world, there is nothing more convenient than being an "orphan".

"If this world is conscious, then He is really lazy." Ishino complained in his heart.

In this way, five years of peaceful life have passed, and these five years, for Ishino, more than [-] days have passed.

In the past five years, Ishino has settled down in Mihua Town, and he is no longer a nominal consultant of Mihua Hotel, but has officially become a senior dessert designer hired here with a high salary.

With his own super talent and more than [-] days of hard work, Ishino's fondant carving skills have also been perfected, and through banquets and exhibitions, he is well known all over the world.

In the praise of various artists and celebrities, Ishino has been dubbed the title of "Confectioner Magician" and is famous both at home and abroad.

At the same time, Ishino found that not only was he growing rapidly in skills, but his physical fitness was also changing at a speed that ordinary people could not match. Before the time travel, his body, which was too much to stay up late for two days, now works continuously for a week without feeling tired.

In addition, his strength and dexterity have also been greatly improved, and he can easily handle fondant sculptures that are heavier than himself. This is one of the reasons why he can make large sugar sculptures that others cannot do independently.

Ishino found that it seemed that the aborigines in this world did not enjoy the benefits of this Kexue time flow.

Even so, Ishino at this time felt that he had encountered a bottleneck in his creation, so when the opportunity to go to Paris for a three-month exchange and study was in front of him, Ishino decided to go without hesitation.

And this trip made the gear of fate turn rapidly in a direction Ishino never expected...

　Many people may find it strange that the heroine is determined at the beginning, and she is still an unknown character.However, I always feel that when Aoyama created the character of Kasaka Natsumi, he gave the character a huge room for association.After all, that ceiling-level appearance in the entire Kexue world, as well as his life experience full of mysteries, should definitely not be just a hasty passerby.When I studied the setting of this character in depth, I found that there are coincidences in the details of these settings that can be connected with other main characters, and I started to create this story because of my love for the character.I hope that interested readers can follow my story, start with a brand new character, and observe the development of the story in the world of Ke Xue. I believe they will have completely different experiences and perceptions.
