Itake Karuta quietly opened the bedroom door and found that Mao Lilan was still sleeping. She must have been really tired.
Itake Karuta went downstairs quietly, hung a sign saying”Resting Today” at the door, and then started to eat breakfast.
At the same time, I couldn’t help but recall the second disaster relief ceremony last night.
Itake Karuta had no practical experience and was a little nervous, but he knew the general process.
In addition, Mao Lilan was willing to cooperate, so before the official start, he did enough pre-casting and chanting.
Everything went smoothly, but Itake Karuta was too nervous, which caused the ceremony to be terminated early and did not meet the requirements of synchronous casting.
However, Itake Karuta was able to control his vitality freely. Even if he cast the spell in advance and the energy shock actually hit Mao Lilan, it would not have a substantial impact on Mao Lilan’s body, and Mao Lilan was willing to continue trying.
But to achieve the same frequency and cast the spell at the same time, a certain tacit understanding is required.
How can it be achieved in a short time or once or twice?
Either Xiaolan missed the opportunity, or Itake Karuta arrived early.
Fortunately, Mao Lilan had a foundation in martial arts and could withstand repeated tossing.
After several hours of running-in, the two finally reached the conditions for synchronized casting.
By then, Mao Lilan was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
As for Itake Karuta, he had the Reversal Xuantian Gong, which only required him to consume his evil spirit to continuously recover his physical strength.
This was also the reason why he was able to get up on time today.
‘There are still 150,000 evil spirits left…you have to use them sparingly……’
After breakfast, Itake Karuta began to make plans for the future.
With the Reverse Xuantian Art, evil spirits can do many things.
In addition to ordinary sleight of hand, they can be released to hurt people, or protect the body for defense.
They can also temper the body, increase strength, and improve the practice level of the Reverse Xuantian Art.
Itake Karuta usually prepares 300,000 evil spirits for self-defense or other purposes.
Because of what happened in the past few days, there are only 150,000 left in the blink of an eye.
He only hopes that the birth of Conan will bring more unlucky guys to Conan’s world, so that he can absorb more evil spirits.
As for the dead?
Itake Karuta doesn’t care.
Anyway, the deaths of people in cases every day are one of the operating rules of Conan’s world, just like the unpredictable weather and dates. At ten o’clock in the morning, with the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs,
Mao Lilan wrapped in a sheet appeared at the stairs.
“The bathroom is over there.”
Itake Karuta pointed out the direction as if he was responding quickly.
“Um……”Mao Lilan responded, turned away her slightly red cheeks, and walked into the bathroom.
Half an hour later,
Mao Lilan came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel, her cheeks still flushed from the hot bath water. She opened the bathroom door and saw a shopping bag at the door.
Itake Karuta said while watching TV,”I don’t know if it will fit, let’s try it on.”
He suddenly remembered this and went out to buy it.
As for Mao Lilan’s original clothes, most of them were stained with sweat because she was too tired from the ceremony last night, and they could not be worn for the time being.
“Um……”
Mao Lilan took the shopping bag and prepared to go back to the bedroom on the second floor to change clothes
“And,” Itake Karuta added,”I just noticed you were on the missing person notice in the news…did you forget to turn on your phone?”
Last night, in order to concentrate on the ceremony and avoid being disturbed, both of them turned off their phones.”
Thumb, thump, thump—
Ran Mouri hurried upstairs. She was so tired that she fell asleep last night and woke up late, so she forgot to turn on her phone.
More than ten minutes later, just as Itake Karuta began to plan where to invite Ran Mouri to go out for lunch at noon, ding dong—!
The doorbell rang.
Itake Karuta walked to the answering machine at the door on the first floor,
“Closed today, closed tomorrow……”
“You are Itake Karuta?! Xiaolan is inside, right? Open the door!”
A female voice came from the transponder, with a hint of majesty and obvious anxiety. The woman who came to see Xiaolan… Could it be that… Itake Karuta opened the door and found a mature woman standing outside the gate. She had a proud figure, bright and dignified, like Chang’e in the moon, aloof and unapproachable. She wore a pair of glasses, which added a bit of wisdom. But at this moment, she looked a little haggard, with dark circles under her eyes.
“Hello, lawyer Kisaki Eri.”
Itake Karuta recognized this famous lawyer from Sakura Country.
But as soon as the door opened, Kisaki Eri bypassed Itake Karuta and walked straight into the front yard and into the house, ignoring him completely.
Itake Karuta’s eyes darkened, and he caught up with her in two or three steps, blocking Kisaki Eri’s way.
“This is my residence, Attorney Fei, please do not trespass. If you get into trouble, don’t blame me!”
After all, this is his home, and he greeted him politely just now.
Fei Yingli is so rude and doesn’t take him seriously!
“You charlatan! You tricked Xiaolan here and didn’t go home all night. What did you do?!”
Hiki Eri couldn’t get into the house, so she glared at Itake Karuta and asked loudly.
Because of Kudo Shinichi’s death, Kisaki Eri was very worried about her daughter Mouri Ran’s mental state, so she took a special leave and brought Mouri Ran to live in her apartment.
As a result, she only went out for a short while yesterday afternoon, and Mouri Ran didn’t know where she ran to, and she didn’t answer the phone.
At first, she sent text messages, and there were replies, but as time went on, the text messages were less and less, and finally she even turned off her phone and couldn’t get in touch with her at all.
Kisaki Eri was afraid that Mouri Ran would be upset, and she was almost crazy last night. She contacted everyone she could contact, and
Maori Kogoro also used his connections as a criminal policeman to have the police broadcast a missing person notice on the news early in the morning.
Kisaki Eri didn’t sleep all night, and frantically called Mouri Ran’s mobile phone. Listening to the power-off prompt tone over and over again, she was almost desperate. So much so that when the call was connected just now, Kisaki Eri thought she was dreaming.
Knowing that Mouri Ran was here, she drove over without stopping
“Ms. Maori is my client and has a confidentiality obligation.”
Itake Karuta said coldly:”If Lawyer Fei wants to know the details, you can ask Ms. Maori.”
“Don’t keep calling me a charlatan or a liar. If you anger the gods, you will suffer the consequences!”
If Kisaki Eri said it in a nice way, Itake Karuta would naturally be polite for Ran Mouri’s sake.
But if she said it with a hint of hostility, Itake Karuta would not tolerate it.
After all, Kisaki Eri came here to look for someone, and it was obvious that she had already talked to Ran Mouri on the phone. Even if she was in a hurry, it wouldn’t hurt to be polite.
“You are a liar! You only know how to pretend to be a god………”
Before Kiyori could finish her words, Mao Lilan rushed out and covered her mouth.
“Mr. Yizhu, please don’t be angry. Mom is just too worried about me.……”
Mao Lilan didn’t want Kisaki Eri to get into trouble, so she hurriedly said,”I’ll apologize to you here first, and I’ll come to your house to apologize another day!”
After that, Mao Lilan hurriedly dragged Kisaki Eri away.
Watching the two of them leave,
Itake Karuta’s mouth curled up a smile.
It seems that Mao Lilan has already been in awe.
Sure enough, killing a chicken to scare the monkey is still so effective!
As for Kisaki Eri, if she still speaks rudely next time they meet,
Itake Karuta doesn’t mind giving her a small punishment to make the lawyer remember it for a long time.
However, even Itake Karuta didn’t expect that
Kisaki Eri would come to her house again that afternoon to ask for an explanation…
