Chapter 142
“I, I’m not……”
“I am… I am influenced by the evil spirit!”
“That’s why……”
Koizumi Akako was like a kid who was caught stealing candy, and she gave a somewhat guilty explanation.
But Shirley, Akemi, and Vermouth obviously did not accept this explanation, and the three of them rushed up to grab Koizumi Akako’s hair.
Itake Karuta quickly controlled the three of them, and while they were yelling and cursing at Koizumi Akako, he absorbed the evil spirit.
The evil spirit of the three of them plus Koizumi Akako totaled ~300,000.
Without the influence of the evil spirit,
Akemi, Shirley, and Vermouth all regained their original rationality, and the three of them immediately recalled what they had done in the past 24 hours, and rushed back to their respective beds with red faces.
“You should go to bed early too.”
Itake Karuta touched Koizumi Hongzi’s head and then left the room.
“”Hey, where are you going?”
Koizumi Hongzi asked hurriedly, but got no answer. In addition, her left foot injury had not healed yet, so she could only go back to bed.
But soon, Koizumi Hongzi’s face began to heat up.
“��Those last words……”
“He probably didn’t hear it.……”
When Koizumi Hongzi thought about her bold statement just now, her head became hot and dizzy.
“What last words?”
Shirley asked curiously.
“I won’t tell you!”
Koizumi Hongzi would never say it again even if you kill her.
She also defended herself by saying,”And I was influenced by the devil to say that.”
“Didn’t you do that before?……”
Hearing this, Mingmei and others fell silent.
“Well, it’s all the evil spirits’ fault.”
After a long time, Shirley whispered, as if she agreed with what Koizumi Hongzi said, but more like an explanation to Mingmei.
On the other side,
Itake Karuta left the room, naturally to absorb the evil spirits of other people in the temple, because the evil spirits underestimated the enemy and did not even take back the evil spirits imposed on everyone.
Although taking it back completely would not affect the outcome.
Itake Karuta came to the rooms of several monks quietly and absorbed another 350,000 evil spirits.
Now, the total amount of Itake Karuta’s evil spirits soared to 2.3 million.
In fact, the evil spirits of the four young monks and the old monk were 470,000, but the old monk was murdered, and the evil spirit dissipated after his death, and the young monk who committed the crime, after killing, his heart knot was untied, and part of the evil spirit also dissipated.
After the evil spirit dissipated, the heavy rain in the mountains also stopped abruptly, and the next day was a sunny day that couldn’t be clearer.
At noon, the police who received the report led a team to the scene.
Unexpectedly, it was Megure Juzo who came over, and he was followed by Maori Kogoro and Conan
“Although a bit remote”
“But this area is also under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police Department.”
Megure Jusan explained his appearance.
As for Maori Kogoro, he arrived in Europe a few days ago after having a good meal on the cruise ship.
But he had little money on him, not even a visa, so he could only contact the police to provide him with a plane ticket to send him back to Beihua.
As for the money to buy the plane ticket, it was naturally paid by Maori Ran.
Maori Ran complained that Maori Kogoro had wasted a lot of money and had not worked for nearly a month, so she frequently put pressure on him and urged Maori Kogoro to work quickly.
Maori Kogoro didn’t dare to stay at home during the day, and he had no pocket money on him, so he could only run to the Metropolitan Police Department to find Megure Jusan to complain.
Then he received a call to report the case and followed along.
Not to mention Conan, because something happened, he was a little afraid to face Maori Ran at this time.
He didn’t want to stay at Dr. Agasa’s house, because Yukiko didn’t seem to give up.
Conan was afraid that Yukiko would be dragged into the plan and some unpredictable situations would happen.
So Conan chose to follow Maori Kogoro. If he encountered a case, he might be able to reason about it and enjoy the fun of solving the case.
“Just try your best to solve the case.”
“Anyway, there are no suspects among the people here.”
“There is no motive or time for committing the crime.”Itake Karuta didn’t care about reasoning to solve the case.
After the old monk’s body was found in the morning,
Itake Karuta had already greeted Mingmei, Shirley, Vermouth and Koizumi Akiko.
Several people said the same thing, saying that they slept in the same room last night.
“No, Yizhu, you……”
“You slept in the same room with these three beauties?!”
Mouri Kogoro’s eyes widened with envy and jealousy.
But Shirley couldn’t help but clench her fists: There were obviously four of them!
Just because she was shorter and looked younger, she was excluded?!
Wouldn’t it cause misunderstanding if she was with Itake Karuta?!
“What are you thinking about, little mustache detective!”
Koizumi Hongzi scolded:”These monks have shifty eyes and are plotting something bad against us.”
“We asked Mr. Yizhu to come to the room for protection, is there any problem?!”
Vermouth also helped:”Fortunately, Mr. Yizhu is here to protect us.”
“Otherwise, the person who died last night might have been one of us.” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
If someone else said this reason, it might still attract doubts, but Mingmei and others are indeed first-class beauties, and there are indeed unsafe factors in the temple. A murder has occurred, so it is understandable that Itake Karuta stayed in the room for protection.
The police reduced their suspicion of Itake Karuta and others, but Conan still quietly took out a recorder and recorded the conversation, and took a photo of Itake Karuta standing with others.
In addition to Itake Karuta, Vermouth also noticed this little action and frowned slightly.
0 Asking for flowers Conan’s little tricks can be seen through at a glance.
He just wants to sow discord between Itake Karuta and Maori Ran.
But Vermouth doesn’t understand.
As a detective, Conan hasn’t discovered how far Maori Ran and Itake Karuta have developed? Does he really not know, or is he deceiving himself? What if this little trick is known by Itake Karuta…
Just as she was thinking, Vermouth soon saw Conan slip and fall inexplicably, hitting his head on the ground with a bloody head.
Fortunately, the floor of this temple is made of wood, and Conan’s altitude is limited, so the injury is not serious.
Vermouth’s heart trembled immediately: It seems that Itake Karuta is very likely to know Conan’s true identity.
Thinking of the rumor that Itake Karuta cursed Kudo Shinichi to death, maybe Maori Ran did it for Conan.
……[]
The more she thought about it, the more Vermouth felt that Itake Karuta was unfathomable, as if everything was completely controlled by him.
Itake Karuta couldn’t figure it out.
Judging from the performance in the dream, Conan should have a new love, so why was he still thinking about these little tricks?
Was he simply jealous of his handsomeness?
More than two hours later,
Conan, with gauze wrapped around his forehead, hacked into Maori Kogoro again and successfully found the real culprit of the case – the youngest and shortest of the four monks.
As for the motive for killing the old monk, it was to avenge his brother…
Itake Karuta was not interested in knowing more details.
While waiting for the case to be solved, Itake Karuta was not idle. He helped Koizumi Hongzi’s sprained left foot to straighten the bones and secretly used the evil spirit to dredge the blood vessels.
When the case was over, Koizumi Hongzi could walk normally.
After that, the group took a car down the mountain.
In the market near the foot of the mountain, they either bought clothes or food, or found a self-service laundry to wash and dry the clothes they changed last night.
Everyone was busy with their own work.
At 5pm, the five of them gathered at the agreed place and then climbed the mountain again.
Today was an extremely sunny day.
The mountain road that had become muddy due to the rain dried up the moisture under the heat of the sun and became solid.
At 5:30pm, the group came to the top of the mountain again.
Itake Karuta, Akemi, and Shirley watched the sunset together and admired the sunset scenery.
Vermouth was setting up the tent for the night camping on the other side.
As for Koizumi Akako, she also sat next to Itake Karuta.
“Obviously, he is no longer affected by the evil spirits.”
“Someone is still unwilling to leave.”
Shirley took Itake Karuta’s arms and suddenly spoke.
Koizumi Hongzi immediately retorted,”This is not your territory, what does it have to do with you when I leave?”
“You, though young, have done things that are much more daring than me.”
”
What qualifications do you have to talk about my mountain?”.
