Seven Seas Senior's Domestic Evil Dragon

The dark-skinned boss offered to stay and wait for Mori Kogoro. The threatening letter he received seemed to have attracted the attention of Conan and the police. Anyway, the weird boss didn't plan to go with them.

So when Su Da changed his clothes and came out, Jianren Qihai and Su Da left the Polo Cafe side by side.

"Goodbye! Brother Xiaolin! Brother Qihai!"

"Goodbye, Conan, Xiaolan!"

On the way to the station, Qihai Jianren rarely took the initiative to chat: "How long have you been working here?"

Su Da counted, "Less than a week, one day less than at the company."

Huh, but the police asked him this question just now?

When Su Da was wondering, Jianren Qihai continued: "Your senior in the coffee shop, and the detective agency... No, forget it, it's nothing."

"Ok?"

Su Da looked at Jianren Qihai suspiciously, and felt that the current senior was a little strange, as if he only said half of what he said just now on purpose.

So he tilted his head slightly, guessing what Jianren Qihai hadn't finished speaking.

He asked cautiously: "Senior, is it because Mr. Amuro and Conan-kun have been secretly paying attention to your affairs?"

...It really is very sharp.

Seeing Jianren Qihai looking sideways, Su Da immediately said: "It's nothing, it's my guess!"

"No, you guessed right." Qi Haijian said: "It's just a little concerned."

He knew that as a former conjurer, he must be different from ordinary people, but most people would not have that kind of curiosity and insight.

Su Da thought for a while, and said: "I don't know much about it, but Mr. Amuro is a student of Mr. Mori Kogoro, and I heard that he is studying to be a detective. As for Conan...he is a detective himself. A small organization called the Detective Boys."

Jianren Qihai said calmly, "That's it."

Su Da comforted him: "Senior, don't worry too much. Conan is just full of curiosity. Children are like this. After all, he is only 17 years old."

Jianren Qihai: "...?"

Edogawa Conan who eavesdropped with a bug: "!!!"

He was so frightened that he almost fell off the chair, and Xiao Lan who was beside him asked in surprise, "Conan, what's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing! Ha, ha ha ha ha ha—"

17 years old? 17 years old?Did he hear wrong?still--

Conan Edogawa felt his heart pounding in his chest.

And the two people who were walking towards the station stopped in tacit agreement.

Under Qihai Jianren's gaze, Su Da said awkwardly: "Did I say something wrong again?"

Jianren Qihai shook his head.

He raised his hand to Su Da. Su Da didn't know why, but because of his trust in his senior, he just blinked his eyes and looked at Jianren Qihai without moving.

Jianren Qihai took out a small bug from Su Da's collar and destroyed it on the spot with magic power.

Su Da was surprised: "This is——Conan put it in?"

Jianren Qihai hummed.

He asked those questions knowing that there was a bug, just to warn the suspicious children, but Su Da said such inexplicable words...

"Sorry, this bug should be installed for me. He can't install it here, so he will choose you as the next best thing. I don't think that little detective is deliberately targeting you."

"Ah..." Su Da laughed knowingly, "So it's like this, I thought it was a prank made by children to put stickers on people's clothes."

He really wanted to ask Nanami Jianren "Why did Conan listen to the seniors", but he intuitively thought that this question would make the seniors unhappy, so——

Su Da asked sincerely: "Senior, I didn't say anything strange just now, did I?"

"..."

Isn't it strange enough to say that a student in the second grade of elementary school is at most 17 years old?

However, Jianren Qihai just said calmly: "No."

Su Da believed it was true and heaved a sigh of relief on the spot.

"..."

Very sharp, yet surprisingly simple.As long as you lie calmly and confidently, the other party will believe it.

On the wall made of red bricks, a red curse spirit lay quietly on it, repeating: "Mom...Mom...Mom..."

Su Da almost looked over.

But in time, he remembered Qihai Jianren's instruction "don't look at the curse spirit", so he forcibly resisted the urge to look over, and passed by the curse spirit as if nothing had happened.

After walking a certain distance, the mature and reliable senior Qihai affirmed his actions: "Well done."

The praised Su Da couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and even his footsteps couldn't help jumping a little.

"But senior, why does the curse spirit attack the person in line of sight?"

Jianren Qihai didn't mind telling him a little more common sense: "Because ordinary people can't see the curse spirit, so they hardly look at the curse spirit. It realizes that you can see it, and it will perceive danger, or mistakenly think that it is a curse. provocative, and therefore the first to attack."

"So it's like this..." Su Da admired: "Senior knows a lot."

Excellent working ability, very familiar with spells, and also knows how to make strawberry cake...

Seniors are great too.

Qihai Jianren was silent.

He suddenly realized that he, who had made up his mind to stay away from the curse spirit and the conjurer, inadvertently talked about the curse with people in a normal manner, so naturally that he didn't even notice the abnormality.

Sensing the sudden depression of the people around him, Su Da was taken aback, "Senior, don't you like me mentioning the curse?"

Qihai Jianren said: "It's just that I don't like cursing, it's not that I don't want to talk to you."

"So that's the case, I understand!" Su Da breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Because the curse looks weird and will attack people, it's normal to be hated."

Those cursed images should not conform to human aesthetics at all, right?Human beings have always been very repulsive to creatures that do not conform to their own aesthetics, and they have a good impression of creatures such as elves and angels that conform to their own aesthetics.

He understands, he understands.

... Are you hated by humans because you are ugly?This conclusion sounds a bit unreasonable, but it is not unreasonable.

Jianren Qihai glanced at him and intuitively felt that it was necessary to explain this.

He said: "Curses are born from people's negative emotions. Negative emotions such as fear, remorse, hatred, and anger will all produce curses."

Suda got it right.

"Oh, that's why there are more curses in the city center than here."

It seems that curses are a specialty of this world, well, when we return to the original world, maybe we can bring back a few curses as specialties.

"That's right. The more people there are, the stronger the curse will be. If you see a powerful curse, remember to avoid it as soon as possible. They are very dangerous."

Suda nodded.

"Well, good. But how to deal with the curse? If left alone, will it affect the order of human society? Can I call the police?"

Human beings who live in groups value order, especially human rulers, they will certainly not allow unrest to breed within their own sphere of rule.

"No." Jianren Qihai looked straight ahead and replied calmly, "It has nothing to do with the police."

Su Da paused slightly, and heard Senior Qihai continue:

"Removing curses is the job of conjurers, and has nothing to do with ordinary people."

He repeated "nothing to do with ordinary people" twice.

Su Da vaguely realized that the switch for Senior Qihai's bad mood was not a curse, but a "conjurer" or "the work of a conjurer".

He stretched out his hand and gently took Jianren Qihai's hand: "Senior."

Jian Qihai didn't know who he was, so he said, "Huh?"

Su Da paused and smiled brightly: "Then I won't mention the curse in the future, senior, don't be sad."
