The Movie Edition: It's Hard Being a Scientific Antagonist

Ever since Qingchuan Qi could remember, he had known that this world was fake, a manga world. Later, he also discovered that he was the final villain in a theatrical movie based on this manga IP.

As everyone knows, theatrical-movie villains in the Detective Conan universe have three traits: a grand backstory, powerful abilities, and a quick exit.

Qingchuan Qi had no desire to become a disposable villain. After a long period of reflection, he made up his mind.

He would reform and work hard to become a main-story villain!

An invitation from an old friend drew Kogoro Mouri into a "murder case" with no victim: a large quantity of human blood, a body that had disappeared, and Kogoro Mouri unconscious at the scene, clutching the murder weapon...

The only witness was a person with mental illness, deemed "incapable of legal responsibility"!

It seemed to be a repeat of the bizarre disappearance case from twenty years ago.

To clear Uncle Mouri's name while he was receiving treatment in the hospital and being suspected of murder, and to uncover the truth of both the present and twenty years ago, Conan once again set foot on that island.

At the same time, uninvited guests arrived one after another.

A gentle man with limited mobility, a blond detective with strange speech and behavior, a taciturn middle-aged police officer, a tangled web of blood ties within a conglomerate, and a villa on an isolated island...

In the dead of night, black wings seemed to beat.

What had Kogoro Mouri discovered before he lost consciousness? What secret had been buried twenty years ago? Who was the murderer? Who was the victim? And who stood to benefit?

One mystery after another was solved.

There is only one truth!

[Believe this,] the young face was half shrouded in shadow, its lips curling into a gentle smile. [In countless worlds, there is always someone who...]

[Will "love" you, no matter what it takes.]

The protagonist is not a villain in the traditional sense, and is not a bad person.

All the timelines take place before Amuro appears in the original main story. The protagonist is a native of this world, but has access to an anime forum. Chapters containing forum content will be marked before the chapter title.

Theme: No matter what kind of adversity you face, keep striving to live well.
