Chapter 1 - 1. Zenless Zone Zero Summoning System

"Hmm? An unfamiliar ceiling?"

"Wait! Wasn't I run over by Furina's Grand Symphony Itasha? And I was still rescued? What a miracle doctor."

Rin blinked, and the scene before her gradually became clear.

She found herself lying in an unfamiliar room.

No, that's not right!

Why did this room feel a bit familiar… "Isn't this the protagonist's room in the game Zenless Zone Zero?"

"And why has my voice become so cute?"

Rin was instantly stunned, looking down.

She was wearing the same outfit as the protagonist Rin in the game, the one with " Qi Caijie (亓才孑) " printed on it.

On her left leg was a single long black stocking, asymmetrical to the short sock on her right leg.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind.

Could it be that I transmigrated? Transmigrated into the world of Zenless Zone Zero!

She picked up the mirror placed on the bedside table in a daze and looked closely.

Well, it was confirmed!

Blue short hair and pupils, an "N" shaped hairpin.

If this wasn't Rin-chan, one of the protagonists of Zenless Zone Zero, then who could it be?

Rin swallowed, stroking her chest with her right hand, trying to calm herself down.

As a seasoned otaku, she had always longed for transmigration!

After all, in her original world, she was just an ordinary person, living hand to mouth, with work as her only daily activity, and her only entertainment being watching anime and playing games.

Now that she had transmigrated into the game as the female protagonist with the same name as herself, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"If only my brother could transmigrate here too, it's quite lonely being alone in a strange world."

Rin was talking to herself, but unexpectedly received an immediate response.

『Master, there's no need to worry. Fairy will always be by your side, and more companions will be summoned.』

Subtitles with a soft female voice appeared before her eyes.

Rin was instantly overjoyed. As someone who frequently read novels, she was well-versed in all kinds of systems.

She hurriedly asked, "Fairy, are you a system? Or are you just the original AI from the game?"

『Fairy is both the Master's system and the original AI from the game. We are connected by heart, Master. You don't need to speak aloud; I can hear you even if you speak in your mind.』

Then what are your functions? And what's this about summoning companions?

『Fairy is the Zenless Zone Zero Summoning System. Master can consume Film to draw anything from within the Zenless Zone Zero game, including Agents, items, and even NPCs.』

Fairy opened the system menu.

The entire system menu was almost identical to the original layout in the game.

Even each pull cost the same 160 Film.

Rin instantly understood.

The so-called summoning companions was just drawing characters through gacha.

Then she wondered: Weren't those characters already in this world? Wouldn't summoning another identical character cause chaos?

『No, Master, Fairy needs to correct you. We are not in the Zenless Zone Zero world right now, but in the Detective Conan world.』

The world's will automatically implant a suitable identity for the summoned characters in this world.

The non-human characteristics possessed by the summoned characters will only be visible to characters who originally perceive the existence of supernatural beings, such as Koizumi Akako and Kuroba Kaito, under the influence of the world's will.

『People like Conan, who believe in science, will only perceive the non-human characteristics of the summoned characters when they are dazed or on the verge of death.』

"So it's the world of the Shinigami Elementary Schooler."

Rin felt a little nervous.

The Conan world wasn't very logical. Various bizarre murderers would basically kill without hesitation, making it very dangerous.

But then she reconsidered, compared to the Zenless Zone Zero world, the Conan world seemed to be even safer, and her hanging heart finally settled down.

"Then how do I obtain Film?" Rin asked.

『There are two ways to obtain Film. First, like in the game, by completing daily tasks such as drinking coffee, running a shop, or scratching lottery tickets, you can easily obtain it, but the daily limit is 60 Film, so the resources obtained are relatively small.』

『Second, by intercepting the emotional value of important characters from both the red and black sides of this world, you can obtain Film. The greater the emotional fluctuations of the corresponding character, the more Film the Master can obtain, and there is no daily limit.』

"Understood, it's about causing trouble then." Rin chuckled.

She had often played pranks with her brother in the past, and she was good at it.

"So how much Film do I have now? Is there a beginner 10 pull?" Rin rubbed her hands, a little impatient.

『Yes, Master. Not only do you have a beginner 10-pull, but you also have a ' Cunning Hares ' beginner gift package. Opening it will directly summon Nicole, Anby, and Billy. Would you like to open the package immediately?』

"Wait a moment."

Rin suddenly thought of a very important question.

"Will the characters I summon obey me? I remember you said that gacha might draw any NPC from Zenless Zone Zero. If I draw a major villain, wouldn't he try to kill me?!"

『Master, please rest assured. The characters summoned by the system will absolutely obey the Master and will gain the Master's memories of Detective Conan.』

『Once the Master dies, the characters summoned by the system will also disappear. It's a relationship where both benefit or both suffer.』

"Alright then, open the beginner gift package."

Rin's words fell.

The Cunning Hares trio instantly appeared in the room and gained relevant memories.

"Proxy, from now on you're our new boss, so let's write off the old debts, shall we?" Nicole twirled her Great Thunder and blew Rin a kiss.

It was Rin's first time facing such a world-level impact, and she instantly blushed, shyly lowering her head: "Mm."

Anby quietly ate a hamburger nearby, expressionless.

Billy was much more excited, spinning his revolver in his hands, exclaiming, "Manager, what's our first mission? The Cunning Hares in this world isn't doing so well either, so let's get to work!"

"Make money, make big money!" Anby waved in agreement, expressionless.

Rin scratched her cheek, instantly feeling immense pressure.

Film couldn't be exchanged for money. She couldn't let the summoned characters starve with her, could she?

"Fairy, what's the current timeline in this world? Are the Maple Leaf Gold Coins still there?"

In her impression, among the larger and easily obtainable fortunes in the Conan plot, the Maple Leaf Gold Coins were the most prominent.

The general plot was that a group of robbers stole 600 million yen worth of gold coins, and the leader of the robbers hid the coins and drew a treasure map.

As long as she knew the location, getting them in advance would be no difficulty at all.

600 million yen would be enough for their small group to spend for a very long time.

Speaking of a small group, Rin's mind buzzed.

She felt that she should establish an organization now, otherwise, managing the summoned characters would become difficult once there were more of them.

『Yes, Master, the current timeline is just the beginning of the plot. Gin and Vodka are about to go to Tropical Land for a transaction, to get the 100 million yen they extorted. Shinichi Kudo has not yet turned into Conan.』

"What a coincidence, isn't it? Just when I was feeling sleepy, someone sent a pillow."

Rin excitedly clenched her fists.

She then told Nicole and the other two about her idea of establishing an organization.

The three of them all expressed their agreement.

Thus, the Zenless Zone Zero Organization was declared established, abbreviated as ZZZ Organization.

Fairy would set up a network, secretly spreading their name.

The organization's Boss codename—Phaethon!

"Next, this boss will assign the first mission."

Rin coughed, giving a half-moon eyed look:

"We're going to rob the robbers!"
