Ninja Yutoshi pinched the purple guard in his hand and looked over and over again. It was taken back from his uncle Ninzurushi. The monster is gone, so naturally his uncle will not continue to have nightmares.

He didn't wear his usual pair of glasses, and his long and narrow eyes were really beautiful, full of entanglement and doubt.

Two days have passed, and Yushi Ninzu has not been able to recover from what happened that night, especially the uproar of supernatural rumors about Aiko on the Internet, which made him even more restless.

Want to call and meet Xia You?But he wasn't ready yet.

In fact, since he was very young, he felt that this neighbor sister was not normal.When he was still in elementary school in Kumamoto, he happened to see the other party talking to the air.

I used to think that I was wrong, but after experiencing the incident with Aiko, Yuji Ninazu has been convinced that there are monsters in this world.

Although this has severely impacted his three views for more than 20 years, the facts and experiences are in front of him, and he has to believe it.But even more unbelievable than that is the fact that the sister next door is actually a magical girl who can transform.

Could it be... In fact, he is the male protagonist in a hot-blooded fantasy show, and Xia You is the cute female protagonist who is responsible for saving him?After all, he is also Xia You's half childhood sweetheart, which is a common routine in anime.

After this incident, they may experience some strange plots of one kind or another, and then he finds out Xia You's true identity lurking in this world, and finally the two of them play a warm and harmonious happy end together with the deep affection of half-childhood sweethearts.

But are the script creators sure they didn't engage in anti-objects?

A 16-year-old beautiful young girl rescues an old bamboo horse who is seven years older than herself. No matter how you look at it, it is against the table...

Wait... This doesn't fit his romantic aesthetics and rigorous thinking logic at all, what the hell is he thinking about?

Shinobu Yushi held his forehead helplessly. It seems that he was probably too stimulated by this incident.

If so, Xia You's boyfriend will definitely tear him apart.Even if he is really in a fantasy show, he must be a supporting role, thank God for not being cannon fodder.

Just as he was thinking wildly, several guests with unusual identities came to his home.The other party is a member of the Maori Detective Agency, and a little boy was brought along while doing business.

"Smelly brat... By the way, when did you sneak into the back of my car!" The man with the mustache muttered, "Be more obedient and don't make trouble casually."

Yushi Ninja twitched his lips. Is this person really the very famous detective Mr. Mori Kogoro?Why does he feel that the other party is unreliable...

He elegantly served coffee to the visitor, "I am Yushi Ninzu, Mr. Mori, what is the reason for your sudden visit?"

"Don't be nervous, you didn't do anything wrong. It's just that we do have very important things to ask you. I hope you don't hide anything and tell us everything you know!"

"We came here this time because of the strange death of Aiko Furukawa and the rumors of the Linan Bridge water ghost."

Hearing this, Ninja Yuuji trembled slightly with the hand holding the coffee.

"Surely you should pay attention to the news of the past few days, right?" Mori Kogoro repeated the details of Aiko Furukawa's case again, then paused, "We obtained the surveillance video investigation of the day before the body was salvaged. , I found out that there was a very strange scene on the Linan Bridge the night before the incident."

Kogoro Mori described his abnormality on the bridge without any concealment, narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a deep voice: "Please tell me, why did you stay at Linan Bridge for more than 40 minutes that night?"

Yushi Ninzu froze slightly, not knowing how to explain this matter, he subconsciously reached out to push the frame on the bridge of his nose, but was embarrassed to find that he didn't wear glasses at all today.

Unable to hide his eyes behind the glasses, he felt a little uneasy.

That Sailor Moon personally warned him that he must never reveal the affairs of the office and the monsters. How should he answer the other party's questions...

Conan was drinking the glass of iced orange juice that was unique to him with a straw in his mouth, but he had a sharp look in his eyes and said that the other party's stiff body and unnatural expression had a panoramic view.

Sure enough... There are other secrets hidden behind this incident. This man stared at the river for a long time that night, which may be related to the death of Aiko Furukawa.

Although the deceased was diagnosed as dying within four hours after being salvaged, who said she must have died that evening?Maybe someone hid her somewhere under the bridge with superb means and then killed her at the right time, and it is normal for Furukawa Aiko who suffers from mental illness to have no resistance.

This makes sense, and combined with the package and text messages sent to the office, it is very likely that someone used Furukawa Aiko to take revenge on Hara Kenji and Morishita Junichi!

Conan racked his brains to find a reasonable explanation for this "unspeakable" incident. Using the plots of those cases that were solved in the past, he instantly staged a moral and ethical drama in his mind that is not the bloodiest but more bloody.

Before he finds out the truth, he sees everyone as a suspect.

While Conan was contemplating, Yushi Ninazu finally opened his mouth slowly under the encouraging and expectant eyes of others.

"That...Linan Bridge... actually has water, water ghosts..."

"puff--!"

"Hey! Brat, what are you doing, you sprayed me all over!"

"Cough cough cough... I'm sorry, I have a cold and my throat is still a little itchy, and I accidentally choked on it." Conan coughed and explained with a blushing neck, and glanced at Yushi Ninzu with hidden annoyance in his eyes.

Make up and make up a more reliable answer to get away with it, okay?

Mori Kogoro put on a dark face, but endured the paper towel handed by Yushi, and then asked a little nervously, "What's the matter with the water ghost?"

"The thing is like this." After finding the reason in his heart, Ninaku Yushi said with a dignified and mysterious face, "Just a few days ago, my uncle Ninzu Riko fell into the water inexplicably when he passed the Linan Bridge."

"Ninzurushi is your uncle?" Mori Kogoro's expression darkened slightly. He had only investigated and inquired about this person two days ago.

"That's right, my uncle said that someone from the detective agency asked him about it, and Mr. Mori must have known about it."

Shinobu Yushi smiled wryly, and started his performance with superb tenth-level acting skills, "I heard my uncle kept talking about the water ghost on the bridge and the red scarf that pulled him into the river, and I always wondered if there was really a supernatural event? "

"I have never believed in such unscientific things, so when I went home that night, I deliberately passed by Linan Bridge, wanting to test the truth, but I did not expect that I really encountered such a terrible thing. thing……"

Conan pushed his glasses, looked at Yuji Ninzu with a complicated expression, his facial muscles twitched.

"Then what happened to you, uncle?"

"As if in a dream, my car drove into a strange fog and lost its direction, and then a woman's cry began to appear beside the railing. She was wearing a beige coat and a red scarf, and she was standing not far away looking at me. , exactly like the woman my uncle mentioned."

Conan's eyelids twitched, and from the description of the clothes, the other party was undoubtedly Aiko Furukawa.

Hearing this, Mori Kogoro gasped and asked nervously, "Did she do anything?"

"I felt that something was wrong, and I started to speed up to stay away from the Linan Bridge, but I drove for a long time, and it seemed that I was still staying in the same place, that..."

"Uncle, are you sure it's not your car that's out of gas?" Conan couldn't help asking, who couldn't bear to listen.

"Don't interrupt, brat, or you can go outside and play in the garden!"

"..."

Yushi Ninzu who was interrupted continued: "That woman seems to think that I can't escape. As the early morning approaches, her strength seems to have become much stronger. For some reason, my car keeps approaching her."

"I thought I might not be able to escape, and I was going to be buried here, but I didn't expect..." Ninja paused, and lowered his head to drink a cup of coffee.

Conan pursed his mouth, can't we make it up?

Mori Kogoro listened attentively, and asked nervously and anxiously, "What did you expect? How did you escape?"

"I didn't expect that just when that woman was about to drown me, the amulet in my pocket suddenly glowed with golden light!" Yushi Ninzu suddenly took out a purple amulet from his pocket, and said happily, "My The safety talisman protected me at a critical moment, and then the woman and the fog suddenly disappeared, and I thought I was dreaming, so I watched the river from the bridge for a long time."

After Conan listened expressionlessly, his eyes almost turned into two horizontal bars.

This is absolutely false. Under normal circumstances, how can a normal person stay here foolishly after encountering such a thing and getting out of danger?Obviously, he should have fled the scene immediately.

"Wow... It really is a mysterious and unspeakable incident. I have heard that the high-level police have been exposed to many such incidents before, but I didn't expect it to be real." Mori Kogoro touched his chin with a complicated expression , "If I didn't happen to save your uncle this time, and I'm a well-known invincible genius detective, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get in touch with this kind of case."

After listening to Mori Kogoro's words, Conan wailed in his heart, this unreliable guy may not be counted on.

He really wanted to refute Yushi Ninzu's nonsense in person, but it was impossible for him to explain the abnormality of the monitoring screen reasonably.

What's more, from what Yushi Ninzu said, it is true that he does not know Furukawa Aiko and others.He and Aiko are not in the same school at all, and they are not in the same hospital as Kenji Hara. The moral and ethical relationships he guessed are completely unreasonable.

Conan squinted his eyes, and turned his thoughts to Morishita Junichi and Hara Kenji.

He is now sure that Aiko's death is related to these two men, and in all likelihood, he was murdered by the other party, the only difference is that he doesn't know the details.The most important thing now is to leave here immediately to investigate these two suspicious men.

"Excuse me this time. We have already recorded your description. Since there is still urgent matter, we will leave now. Thank you for your cooperation."

Hearing Mori Kogoro's words, Conan's face eased a lot, and finally this bad guy still remembered what to do.

But he didn't want the other party's words to almost make him fall to the ground in the next second.

"That...Young man, where did you buy this omamori, can you introduce it to me?" Mori Kogoro said hesitantly, "You also know that the risk of us being detectives is very high, and we will inevitably meet with you often. Meeting Aiko Furukawa..."

enough!Where did it come from so often... I'm afraid this old guy has lost his mind!

Shinobu Yushi nodded in understanding, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but my former neighbor actually gave me this omamori. I don't know where she bought it."

"That's it... then can I give you the contact information and address of your friend?" Mori Kogoro asked unwillingly.

Hearing this sentence, Ninzu Yushi hesitated for a moment, but the other party seemed to only want Yushou, and telling the other party Xia You's contact information would not be considered a violation of the white-haired woman's warning, right?

etc……!Why does he think so...

He seemed to have tacitly agreed that the person who saved him was Xia You or the people around her.

After getting the contact information of the other party, Mori Kogoro hurried back to the car with his children and colleagues, "Tomoeda Town? It's not far away. If Officer Higurashi wants to go back to the police station, he will be on the way. Can you give me a ride? We will wait later Take a taxi home, thank you!"

"No problem." The fat police officer in the driver's seat glanced at the address on the note and nodded cheerfully.

Conan clutched his chest with internal injuries, and asked with difficulty: "Uncle...uncle, it's past seven o'clock in the evening, why don't you go back to the office?"

"Why, now I know that handling cases is not fun? Who told you to sneak up in the car, you brat? I'm going to settle for the Fujiwara family!"

"Do you know it's seven o'clock in the evening? Let me tell you that we often pass by Linan Bridge in the middle of the night. If one day we are like the Renzu boy... Xiaolan is still young, if there is no father... Oh, I I don’t even dare to think about it anymore!” Mori Kogoro shivered, rubbing his hands in cold sweat, wishing he could buy a shou immediately and hang it on his body.

The veins on Conan's forehead twitched, and it took him a long time to resist the desire to swear.

If he had known this before, he shouldn't have climbed the car to take this muddy water. With such a waste of time, he might as well stay in the office and continue to investigate the parcel.

Compared with Dr. Ali, this rotten person is really unreliable!

Wait... Dr. Ali?

Conan's expression tightened, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly realized.

Damn... how stupid I am!He was actually led by the nose by the supernatural rumors around him, and did some useless work.Why did he forget that since there is a poison in the world that can shrink Kudo Shinichi's body into Edogawa Conan, isn't there a medicine that can keep the corpse from decomposing?

there is only one truth!

And he was only a little bit away from touching the truth.

*****

Xia You squatted at home for two days, everything was calm.

The office's new formation has been approved, and the pattern is extremely complicated. Xia You gathered his strength and drew it on the paper bit by bit, almost blinding his eyes.

After drawing the formation, the teleportation formation of the cabinet can be opened again.

With her strength exhausted, she temporarily stopped to rest, remembering that Ninzu Yushi had said before that she wanted to guard, but she hadn't called her these days, so she took the initiative to make a call to ask.

The call was quickly connected.

"Hey, Brother Yushi? Didn't you say you wanted Yushou before? Why haven't you contacted me these days?"

Could it be that he was frightened by Li Nanqiao's Aizi?

"...Sorry, something happened to me these days, so I couldn't get away."

"Something happened? Is it okay?"

"It doesn't matter, actually... Forget it, Xia You, are you free these two days? Tell me when you have time, I'll get the guard, and treat you to a meal by the way."

"By the way, call your boyfriend too."

Xia You still wanted to say something, but heard the doorbell ringing, so she hurriedly said: "No problem, I seem to have guests at my house, let's not talk about it now!"

After hanging up the phone, she stepped on her slippers and ran over, only to find that Ibaraki had already opened the door, and there were two strangers standing at the door, one big and one small.

The leader with the mustache looked familiar, Xia You was taken aback for a moment, and immediately recognized that the other was the detective Mori Kogoro whom he had seen in the interview two days ago.

"Excuse me, what's the matter with you two?"

"Ahem... little girl, are you Fujiwara Xiayou? This is how it goes..."

Mao Li Kogoro gesticulated and said a lot, Xia You finally understood why the other party came, and couldn't help laughing amusedly from the bottom of his heart.

Renzu really didn't disclose the matter of eliminating demons in the office, but the reason was completely fabricated, and the other party came to her door by mistake.

"Sit down, both of you. Actually, that omamori... I bought it at a local shrine when I was living in Kumamoto Prefecture when I was a child, and now I still have a lot of them at home."

Xia You's eyes turned around, and finally landed on the four-eyed little boy, and said with a smile: "Anyway, it's not a very valuable thing, why don't you give it to Mr. Detective."

"Is this really okay?" Mori Kogoro looked a little embarrassed.

"How could it be! Detective Maori is quite a famous big shot. You have always been my idol, so let's treat it as a gift from fans."

"What? Hahahahahahahaha I didn't expect me to be so famous!" Maori Kogoro was stunned, scratching his head and laughing, "I thought that the little girls nowadays like long-legged Oppa and little fresh meat, little girl, you You have a good vision, you have a future!"

When Conan heard this, he stroked his forehead and sighed deeply.

Ibaraki stared at him vigilantly and murderously, what the hell is long-legged Oppa?What is little fresh meat? Is it delicious?Why should a girl like Xia You like them?

No, that's not the point.This seemingly ordinary tall, thin and wretched man is Xia You's worship object?

Ibaraki suspects that Xia You may be highly myopic.

Xia You didn't think about it that much, she just felt a little uncomfortable when she was close to these two people, presumably it might be because the other party was often involved in murder cases.Ibaraki was very angry, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.

It is not a good thing to deal with corpses all the time, and if it goes on like this for a long time, it will inevitably be contaminated with miasma.However, she was a little surprised that the miasma on the little boy beside Mori Kogoro was heavier than him.

Xia You speculates that this may be because adults often bring children with them when doing business. Children's resistance is not that high, and it's normal to be affected.

After all, they are all people who sacrificed their lives for the sake of the masses, so it is right to send a guard to keep them safe.

Just when Xia You turned around and went back upstairs to guard, Conan stared at her back tightly without saying a word.

This girl looks so familiar...

Out of the corner of his eye, he fell on another silent man with short white hair, and Conan froze.

The figures of these two people are like the couple who suddenly appeared on the surveillance camera before...

And the guard was actually given to Yushi Ninzu by this girl. Could it be... no, no, no, there can be no supernatural events in this world.

Just when Conan's mind was blank, Natsume Takashi, who was collecting clothes in the yard, hurried in, threw all the clothes in his arms on the sofa, and said out of breath, "Oops, it's raining suddenly Woolen cloth."

"It seems that these clothes can only be dried tomorrow."

He touched his half-wet clothes in distress. The top one was worn by Xia You from the palace in Heianjing, and he was going to wear it when he returned tomorrow.

"Didn't you say it's sunny today? The weather forecast is getting more and more inaccurate now." Mori Kogoro glanced out the window and said with a headache.

"It's okay, we have extra umbrellas at home, please take Mr. Mori with you when you leave." Takashi Natsume smiled gently.

"Thank you so much, young man!"

"Thank you, big brother..." Conan replied subconsciously, then stared at the priestess dress on the sofa, and scanned the family's furnishings again, suddenly feeling extremely uncomfortable.

He just discovered at this moment that there are a bunch of weird things on the display shelves in the family's living room.

After a careful glance, there are dog teeth, toy-like mahogany swords, small torii gates, ema wooden signs, etc...

Dogs barking wildly at night must have seen something that humans cannot see. The key to a dog's escape is that the dog's teeth have the effect of deterring evil.The mahogany sword is an essential tool for ancient exorcists. Mahogany has the power to ward off evil spirits, and small mahogany ornaments have similar effects.

On the wall is actually a picture scroll of Inari God Yu Yijin and a portrait of Zhong Kui. These two big men have different nationalities. Are you sure they won't fight if they are placed together?

In fact, these are collectibles bought by the Fujiwara couple when they traveled, and because they have not been injected with spiritual power, they are useless.

But it was enough to make Conan's scalp tingle, and he didn't have the energy to think about whether Xia You and Ibaraki were the people in the surveillance video.

This family... is obviously superstitious.

At this moment, Conan has the urge to replace all these things with books such as "One Hundred Thousand Whys", "Into Science", and "The Charm of Reasoning".

Alas... As the future pillar and successor of the country, he suddenly felt a heavy burden on him.

Xia You packed a few guards in a bag, and walked down the stairs unhurriedly back to the sofa.

"Wow, little girl, are you going to give me so many?"

"One for Mr. Mao Li, one for this kid, and the rest are for Mr. Mao Li's family." Xia You said with a smile.

"Thank you so much!" Mori Kogoro hugged a bunch of guards, tears streaming down his face.

"Me, me too?" Conan was taken aback.

"That's right." Xia You glanced up and down Conan's bright eyes, then suddenly reached out and rubbed his head, and said to Mouri Kogoro, "Actually, it's better for children to avoid those cases, it's unlucky."

"..."

Conan twitched, almost wanting to yell at Xia You enough, but the words turned into a reluctant and well-behaved thank you.I don't know if it was an illusion. After the other party stretched out his hand, he suddenly felt that the air around him was much fresher...

Could this be the magical healing power unique to beautiful girls?No, no... He can't think wildly, he has a childhood sweetheart!

Seeing that the faint miasma on his body had been dispelled, Xia You withdrew her hand, and heard Mouri Kogoro say: "These guards look very powerful. Speaking of which, should I go to other shrines to buy more?" Come and take it?"

"Absolutely not!" Hearing this, Xia You's expression froze.

"Ah? Why..." Mori Kogoro scratched his head in confusion.

Seeing his stupidity, even Ibaraki, who doesn't want to talk to strangers, can't keep his cold image, "Stupid! If there is a fight between the guardian deities of different temples or shrines, not only will the guards fail, but the person who wears them will lose their power." There will be bad luck."

"..."

The corner of Conan's mouth twitched, and now he had the urge to spray orange juice, but it didn't come from his mouth.

"That's right, so Mr. Mao Li, please remember that you must not wear many shou at the same time." Xia You paused, and smiled gently, "Actually, shou cannot be bought casually as a gift, most of the shou From the day it is worn, it is only valid for one year, and it must be returned to the temple or shrine after the expiration date. However, the guards in your hand can be burned directly next year."

"Okay, no problem, I'll remember everything." Mori Kogoro nodded solemnly and assured.

After getting the royal guard, Mori Kogoro chatted for a few words, and took Edogawa Conan to say goodbye in satisfaction.Holding an umbrella and walking to the street under the darkness of night, he picked up a guard and hung it around Conan's neck.

"Uncle, what are you doing!"

"Come, come, let's take a taxi to go home from the Linan Bridge tonight, and see if we encounter any water ghosts."

"........."

"I'm not afraid if I really meet her. Maybe I can investigate the truth about Aiko Furukawa from her. If she doesn't cooperate, don't blame me for being ruthless, hehehe..."

"........."

"If this supernatural event is solved, the real name detective's reputation will be improved to a higher level hahaha."

Conan listened expressionlessly to the other party's incessant obscenity, and it took a lot of effort to resist the urge to tear off Yushou.

It seems that he can only rely on him in this case. He has to take the time to call Dr. A Li and ask about the embalming agent.

He sighed deeply as the rain poured down the car window.

The weather is really a headache, the sky was clear in the afternoon, why did it suddenly rain heavily?

*****

At this moment, Ibaraki was standing by the window, frowning, looking at the rain curtain.

"This rain is not normal."

"Isn't it normal?" Xia You subconsciously looked at him.

"Yeah, it smells like miasma, but it doesn't have much effect on humans." Madara stretched his limbs lazily, "Probably there are monsters fighting somewhere, but Gao Tianyuan will take care of it anyway. Let's not worry about it."

Xia You was taken aback, and opened the window to look into the distance, but soon the circle of friends with the PP number on her phone exploded.

"Fuck...! August, August snow?"

"It's snowing, it's snowing, it's snowing in Tokyo~"

"I'm in Tokyo too...isn't it snowing?"

"I don't know. My house is near the Linan Bridge. It seems to be snowing around the Linan River, but only a small part of it seems to have disappeared. I guess it may be the aftereffect of the artificial control of urban smog..."

Xia You frowned tightly when she heard that Li Nanqiao was tricky.

At this moment, under the rain curtain on Linan Bridge, a young man with long white hair and red pupils was staring indifferently at a drenched woman in front of him, and beside him stood a snow-white dress with ice-blue hair and pupils. girl.

"A god who has fallen into a youkai?"

"It's really courageous to hit the head of the Nuragumi youkai with the idea."

"Young master... Is it not good to do it here? It will attract the Gao Tianyuan patrol." Ji Chuan Bingli said hesitantly, although she did not like this monster who almost ate her, but this is indeed not the place to do it.

Although humans can't see them, the rain, ice and snow caused by the conflict just now have attracted the attention of some humans.
