Chapter 670 The Headless Horseman Arrives

Arriving at the dining area, Kishitani Silla said to Celti:

"Celti, what do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."

As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and continued with a smile:

"Since we're here, it's okay if we don't have to pretend anymore, right?"

"Ah, that's right."

Celti finally reacted after hearing that, so he opened the bag on his waist and took out his head. At the same time, the motorcycle he had been pushing - Ksheuda Bawa - also took the initiative to restore its original form, turning into a headless black horse with black smoke emitting from its neck, and a cheerful neigh came from somewhere.

“Shhhhhhhhhhh——!”

Celti touched her beloved horse's body apologetically. Although it could transform into various vehicles and was her right-hand man, there was no doubt that this most original appearance was its favorite state.

It’s a pity that in order to survive in human society, it can only maintain the appearance of a motorcycle most of the time.

Sensing her emotions, Ksheuda Bawa lowered his head and rubbed his neck against her body to comfort her, which made her smile somewhat touchedly.

However, after some warm interaction with her beloved horse, Celti suddenly noticed that the noise around her seemed to have become a lot quieter. She turned her head and saw that everyone was looking at her with either surprise or curiosity.

Celti had expected this. After all, her current appearance was indeed too different from that of an ordinary person. So facing everyone's gaze, she spoke calmly and introduced herself:

"My name is Celty Strulson, I'm the Headless Horseman from Ireland. Thank you for your guidance."

"She holds her head in her hands, so cool...! And the motorcycle turning into a headless horse is also amazing...!"

"Xiaolan, look quickly..."

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes were sparkling as she looked at Celty with curiosity and excitement, her excitement only slightly less than when she mentioned Kaito Kidd.

But when she turned her head, she saw that Mao Lilan's face was a little pale, and she was biting her lips tightly. She looked very scared but dared not scream out loud.

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes turned, and she quickly figured out what the other party was afraid of, so she laughed and said:

"What's there to be afraid of? He's a Dullahan, not a ghost."

"Is there a difference?!"

Mao Lilan didn't even dare to speak loudly, fearing that the other party would hear her. She could only move closer to Suzuki Sonoko and whispered in a trembling voice:

"After all, isn't it just a Western monster? And her head can talk..."

It can be seen that she is really scared. Suzuki Sonoko found it a little funny, but she didn't know how to comfort her. At this time, Conan, who was sitting next to Mao Lilan, suddenly said:

“That’s actually not quite right.”

"According to local Irish folklore, the other party is more like a fairy or a god."

"Eh?"

Mao Lilan successfully attracted attention and asked with some confusion:

"Why do you say that?"

Conan said:

"The Headless Horseman generally exists in two forms: one with a head and one without a head. Judging from her appearance and self-introduction, Miss Celty is obviously a more traditional Dullahan."

Dullahan is a headless goblin in Irish legend. Like the Grim Reaper, he foreshadows death, but he is not a goblin that brings death, but rather announcing death.

Moreover, in early Celtic mythology, Dullahan was more often seen as the incarnation of the fertility god Crom Dubh or Black Crom, which is the origin of his identity as a god in Conan's mouth.

"Fairies, gods..."

Listening to Conan's explanation, Mao Lilan looked at Celti thoughtfully, and the fear on her face gradually dissipated.

Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but smile.

"Eh--"

"I didn't expect that you know so much at such a young age. You're quite impressive!"

Along with the surprised voice, Amano Nagi appeared beside Conan and greeted him cheerfully:

"Hello, my name is Amano Nagi, I'm in the fourth grade of elementary school, and I'm the younger brother of the weather maiden. As one of the few children at this party, how about we make friends?"

Seeing this, Mao Lilan smiled and said:

"That's great, Conan-kun, now I can make new friends again!"

What do you mean? You want me to take care of the baby again?

And isn't Haibara Ai on the other side? Why are you looking for me?!

Conan was somewhat speechless, but still managed to force a smile and said:

"My name is Edogawa Conan, I'm in the first grade of elementary school, nice to meet you."

"Hey, are you four years younger than me?"

Amano Nagi looked at him unexpectedly. For some reason, he always felt that he was calmer than him. He smiled and invited him:

"I found a school of water fish floating in the air over there on the grass. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"

"Well, I..."

I want to have dinner with Xiaolan even more now!

Although he thought so in his heart, before he could say it out loud, Suzuki Sonoko smiled and waved him away:

"Okay, stop clinging to your sister Xiaolan all day long. She is Shinichi's bride-to-be, not yours. Go play with your new friend."

"What are you talking about, Sonoko! I'm not that guy's intended bride!"

However, her teasing made both Mouri Ran and Conan blush. Mouri Ran's reaction was more excited than usual, and she couldn't help but secretly glare at Conan.

However, Conan didn't care. Instead, he felt a little elated and silently gave Suzuki Sonoko a thumbs up in his heart.

Okay, for the sake of your first half of the sentence.

Conan jumped down from the chair and smiled at Amano Nagi:

"Where is the place you are talking about?"

Amano Nagi glanced at Mao Lilan, then looked back at Conan and said with a smile:

"Come with me."

Seeing Conan follow the other party away, Suzuki Sonoko looked around for a while, as if she suddenly discovered something, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said to Mao Lilan with great interest:

"Look, Ritsuka seems to be doing something over there, let's go check it out!"

"what happened?"

Mao Lilan looked over with some curiosity, and saw Fujimaru Ritsuka left the dining area alone and went to an empty grassland.

“Hey, that’s—?!”

Then, in their surprised gazes, Fujimaru Ritsuka's raised right hand began to emit a red light. At the same time, a magic circle that only appeared in comics appeared in front of the other party, gradually emitting a dazzling light and generating waves of air.

Not only Mao Lilan and the others, but almost everyone present was attracted by the momentum. The next moment, the strong light of the summoning circle made everyone's eyes blur. When their vision was restored again, a huge figure appeared in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka -

The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was a giant wolf with a ferocious temperament. Its height just standing on the ground was taller than Fujimaru Ritsuka, completely blocking the sunlight that she could reach. It was estimated to be more than two meters tall, and it seemed like a creature that did not belong to the earth.

Sitting on the back of the giant wolf was a burly man wearing a black cape and coat. But the most important thing was that everyone was surprised to find that the place where the head should be on the other person's body was actually empty!

So the next moment, everyone looked at Celti again, with inquiring and curious gazes shifting back and forth between the two of them.

On the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the Servant she summoned and called out happily:

"Hessen Rob!"

"Ouch——"

When facing Fujimaru Ritsuka, the giant wolf's fierce temperament seemed to soften a little. While it opened its mouth to respond, it gently rubbed Fujimaru Ritsuka's cheek.

After greeting, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Celti and said with a smile:

"The Headless Horseman is here now."
