Protect our prophets

In the past 18 years of his life, Marui Bunta has always felt that everything is going well and he can do whatever he wants.Until one day, he was involved in a murder case...

Then, turn on the TV every day, or from the mouths of classmates and relatives, you can always hear big and small "accidents".

He always felt that there was something wrong with the way the world was opened.

Before the door of the villa parted, Songxue grabbed his sleeve from behind and gently pulled it down.

Marui turned her head back, her expression was calm, but her voice was cautiously lowered: "If I don't contact you within 10 minutes, come to me, if there is no answer when you knock on the door, call the police immediately."

Songxue shook the phone with one hand and stuffed it into his pocket.

"But I don't have your key card?" He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied.

She raised her head and took a look: "The townhouses should use the same system, and you can enter with a card."

"Oh..." Marui nodded, guessing what she was probably worried about, and said, "If you are worried, I will go with you to have a look."

Songxue shook her head: "It's not necessarily a bad person."

"..."

He broke out in a cold sweat.

So, is she really sure someone is waiting for her?

Marui went back to his room, referred to the tutorials on the Internet, and checked it carefully. There was no camera or monitoring equipment.

Ten minutes later, Songxue sent a text message on time.As he replied, he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that maybe he was too nervous.

After tidying up the room, Marui planned to meet up with his teammates.After thinking about it, he decided to call Songxue together.

She guessed right, the key card downstairs is indeed shared.

Marui found Room 203 and rang the doorbell.

The one who opened the door was a short-haired girl who seemed to have seen it on the sidelines of the stadium.The eyelashes are very long and thick, if it weren't for this, Marui might have mistaken her for a boy by looking at her attire.

"Hello, is this Marui-kun? Matsuyuki said you would come... Oh yes, my name is Sera Masumi, and I'm a detective." Sera smiled, but Marui's expression stiffened slightly.

Why is it a detective again?

He turned his head to look inside the room, where Songxue was sitting at the dining table, and across from him was a little boy, holding a glass of water and looking at him suspiciously, then lowered his head to drink water as if nothing had happened.

Songxue held up a box of cards and asked enthusiastically: "It's just in time, we are missing one of three. Are you playing board games?"

Instinctively, Marui quickly declined.

"No, I want to go to the tennis court to practice for a while." He raised the tennis bag on his shoulder, "Since you are playing with...uh, friends, I'll go first."

The girl who called herself Shiliang enthusiastically sent him outside the door, and followed him to the living room on the first floor.

In the next second, Marui Bunta watched her face sink, and then punched the outside of his brain with a bang, hitting the wall.

"..."

Marui reacted quickly, seeing that she was not attacking him, so he didn't move, but after turning his head to look at the lime falling on the wall behind him, he still couldn't help sweating.

"Miss Shiliang...?"

"If I'm right," the female high school detective smiled and retracted her fists, rubbing her wrists, "You and Ms. Songxue's ex-boyfriend are in the same group, right?"

"what."

Marui was slightly stunned.

Wait, what is a "group"?This description, as if they are some kind of criminal gang...

"Very well, then let me warn you, don't always think about bullying girls." Shiliang Zhenchun smiled softly, "Since we broke up, we should break it up completely, don't be stubborn and entangled, if there is another time, I will not be polite Oh."

...Is there some misunderstanding about this person!

"Calm down, Miss Sera." Marui took a deep breath and said, "Our minister has dated Song Xue, but he never 'bullyed' others, let alone girls."

"Your minister?...Yukimura-kun?"

Shiliang remembered clearly that the one who taught them tennis just now was the head of the tennis department he was talking about, Yukimura Seichi.The boy was indeed polite and a rather gentle man.

Judging from his previous relationship with Songxue, there was no conflict between the two of them.

She immediately frowned and thought for a while: "Isn't it him? Someone else?"

Marui silently took two steps back.

"The other person you are talking about is not necessarily a boyfriend, right?" He couldn't help it, "I don't know how long you have known each other, but as far as I know, the only man Songxue would be interested in is a dead body... Besides, she and Yukimura's contact is also necessary for handling the case, and in such a short time afterwards, how could he find—"

Marui was taken aback when he said this, and looked at Uesara with thoughtful eyes.

"If it's not a relationship, then it's someone related to the case." She didn't loosen her brows, "Marui-kun, you and her are classmates, right?"

Yukimura on the court is dazzling enough, and the reputation of "King Lihaida" has long been extremely resounding. He nodded: "However, a murder case occurred in the school a while ago. After catching the murderer, Songxue applied for a suspension of school."

"Understood." Shiliang said, with a low tone, "The recent crime rate is also very concerning to me."

The two walked to the door of the villa in silence, Shiliang was still in deep thought, and Marui also stopped, feeling a little worried: "You mean, some criminals are after Songxue?"

She shook her head slowly: "I don't know, I think she and Mr. Conan are plotting something, and they are keeping it from me."

The girl looked a little frustrated.

"Maybe they don't trust me enough? After all, I also have a little secret that I have to keep from them."

"...Do you detectives like to make things so complicated?" Marui said dryly.

Why can't it be done honestly?

Shiliang showed hesitation: "I don't want to be like this either. Friends shouldn't be so wary of each other... But the more you know, the more dangerous you are to a person. Can you understand this feeling?"

"The connection between people cannot be broken." Marui shook his head and said, "Since we are friends, why can't we face it together?"

She was silent for a while, but Marui still didn't leave, took a step, and couldn't help turning around and asking, "Is she in danger? Before we went back to the room just now, she seemed worried that someone in the room would attack her..."

Shiliang raised her head abruptly, she also had green eyes, but hers were a little lighter than Song Xue's, giving people a completely different feeling.Songxue is always too calm, her eyes light up only when she encounters a case, but she is more energetic and vigorous, and more aggressive.

"it is as expected."

"...Is he a colleague?" Conan breathed a sigh of relief, but soon became alert again, "You think he might be a thief?"

Songxue nodded.

"Rogue, I remember that it doesn't seem to be considered a priest camp in Werewolf Killing?" He pondered, frowning, "The ability is to exchange identity cards at the beginning of each game, so he may be a commoner, a priest, or It's a werewolf..."

"I probably know what his ability is. The witch told me that it is to replace a person's identity and achieve a perfect performance." Songxue paused and said, "I'm not very worried about the position, but if he plays a werewolf , then it can explain why he is worried that I will affect his mission."

Conan rubbed his temples with a headache: "There are too many people."

He jumped out of his chair and walked across the living room to the French windows, looking out into the sunlight.

"The sound insulation here is quite good." Conan said suddenly, "If we just stay in the room at night, we may not hear anything—that Mr. Ye is trying to protect us?"

Songxue considered for a while: "No, the 'we' he said may not include everyone."

"……Eh?"

"It refers to us—the minors below." Songxue stretched out her index finger and made a circle between the two, "Anyway, if the FBI or the public security gentlemen have any plans, we have no position to stop them Bar?"

Sure enough, Conan also showed a dissatisfied expression.

"But--"

Songxue opened a bag of snacks and threw him a piece of chocolate.

"You can't always act as Kudo Shinichi. The goal is too big, and the body will not be able to bear it." She stretched out her hand, "If your friend gave you a temporary antidote, let me keep it first."

"..."

Conan was shocked.

Are you more ruthless than Hui Yuan? !

……

It took Songxue a lot of words to convince Conan, but after checking the time, it was not too early.

She pushed open the door and was about to take Conan to the meeting point of the hot spring resort. When she looked up, she saw several familiar figures confronting each other in the corridor, and she couldn't help being taken aback.

Conan also slammed on the brakes, and carefully retracted his body, only protruding his head.

He keenly felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle.

Yukimura held his Sunbird key card in his hand, looked at Shinozu at the door of Room 201 with a little apology, and said very politely and tactfully: "I think it's better for me to live here."

Sanada and the others stood beside him, their expressions slightly gloomy.

Before Shinozu could speak, Atobe folded his arms in front of the door of 203, which was facing 204, and said with a smile on his face, "Oh? Do you think that I can't be trusted?"

Beside Atobe, Huachi was next to 202, staring blankly through the air with dull eyes.

In the middle of the corridor, Shi Hao looked curiously at this side and then at that side.

A villa has three floors, with a maximum of five rooms on each floor, and the remaining 205 are always closed, and it is not known whether there are other guests staying there.

Conan withdrew his head back into the room and clicked his tongue: "What are they arguing about?"

"I don't really understand," Songxue shook her head, thinking, "But I think Ye Zi sneaked into my room... They already know about it."

Conan understood: "Boys' desire to protect."

Songxue curled her lips: "I dare say that there are no more than five people who reach the adult line in this corridor."

"Including me." Marui's eyes flew towards her sharply.

It seems that he not only has good eyes, but also has sharp ears.

"I think," Shinozuzu said cautiously, "if I want to switch rooms, I should switch with... Sanada?"

Sanada said curtly, "I don't mind."

Yukimura frowned, looking disapproving.

"Why don't you just draw lots?" King Ren suggested, reaching into his pocket, "Let's think about it, I should have one with lottery..."

The others said in unison: "No need!"

"Can your props be called lottery?"

Conan looked around, nodded thoughtfully, and whispered to Songxue: "That black-faced brother looks like he can fight well. If he lives next door, he will feel more secure?"

"You don't understand, Sanada-kun is very powerful as a swordsman in the physics department." Matsuxue gave him a deep look, "but Yukimura-kun is a more terrifying magician."

"..."

Conan: I really don't understand.

The author has something to say: Conan: Although, but... (hold back

Maybe this world really has magic!
