Chapter 42 #Going Astray

42# go astray

Mori Kogoro and Mori Lan visited Heizi’s house on the second day. Of course, a certain Wannian elementary school student still stalked and followed him. Big hot bag.

From the moment he entered Mana's room, Conan's eyes began to search sensitively.It can be seen that this room is indeed well preserved and spotless, probably because it is cleaned by the hostess every day.

There are all children's books and CDs on the bookshelves, there are no posters or stickers on the sky blue walls, potted plants of gentian and lisianthus are placed on the windowsill, and there is a pot of sunset flowers outside the window, white flowers surround thick Green vines meander down from the window...

A big snack box attracted Conan's attention, it was so simple and exquisite, every line was telling "I am very expensive" - ​​Conan suddenly remembered that this was a kind of snack he had eaten at Suzuki Sonoko's house, A limited edition made by a 200-year-old wagashi shop in a gorgeous lacquered box, Sonoko once said it was a hard-to-buy kind of confectionery.

——"It's not that the old Chinese can't buy it at all."

Conan took Heizi Tetsuya's hand, pointed to the lacquer box and asked in a childish voice pretending to be childish.

"Big brother, where did you buy that snack? It looks delicious!"

Hei Zizhe also took a look, and quietly looked away.

"It was a snack from her brother when a friend of my sister was staying at my house. I don't know where he bought it."

Conan pretended to be surprised: "Wow! That brother must be very rich! That box looks so expensive!"

Heizi took another look, and suddenly frowned.

"……wrong."

He walked over quickly and took the box down.After careful observation, his brows furrowed even tighter.

"...This is not that box."

Conan thought for a while, stretched out his hand, and lifted the lid of the box.

"Conan!!!"

Mao Lilan hugged him from behind, and kept apologizing to Hei Zizhe while hugging him.

"I'm sorry this kid is just too curious... He didn't mean anything malicious, I'm really sorry..."

However, Heizi didn't pay attention to her words.

His water-blue eyes widened slightly, and he stared blankly at the code book in the box, and at the flying bird with colorful feathers on the cover.

——Mana's diary.

The box was covered with dried white rose petals, one hand took out the diary from the pale wreckage, a white card slipped out of it, and was caught by the child's hand.

Three lines of characters were neatly written in black font.

[Rock (rock)

"This is a foreign call." Edogawa Conan pondered while looking at the format of the phone, "Should it be a Thai call... or an international call?"

He looked up at Kuroko Tetsuya who was holding the diary in a daze, and held up the card.

"Brother, do you want to call this person?"

Kyoto.

The bamboo monks were filled with water and fell down, making a deep and mysterious sound.A bird was startled, and when it fluttered its wings, it made a fluttering sound, and the sound also startled the girl scenting incense behind the bamboo curtain, and the chrysanthemum pattern on the sleeve of the kimono trembled imperceptibly.

Erika Di Xiaolu turned her head slightly, staring at the autumn scenery in the courtyard.

The sliding door of the Japanese room was silently opened by the housekeeper. She bowed respectfully to Erica, turned sideways to let the red-haired boy enter the room, bowed to the two and closed the door.

"Zhengjiang, good afternoon." Erica smiled sweetly and dimpled, "Eating and drinking are prohibited in the fragrance room, so I'm sorry, but I can't entertain you with refreshments."

Akashi Seijuro sat down opposite Erika Futekoji, raised his strange eyes, and stared at her calmly and indifferently.

"Don't bother, I didn't come for tea."

"Ah, wait a minute."

Erica bent her eyes, signaling Akashi not to speak for now.She held the silver leaf made of mica with a silver leaf clip and placed it lightly on the incense ashes. After the silver leaf was roasted to a slight temperature by the incense charcoal under the incense ashes, she picked up a piece of incense wood with a chopstick and placed it on the silver leaf.Not long after, a delicate fragrance of cold fragrance drifted silently in the room.Erika handed the incense burner to Akashi, and the sleeves of the kimono slid down slightly with her movements, revealing a sweet white wrist.

"Give it a try," she said with a smile.

"...Gara." Akashi frowned slightly, and then denied his point of view, "No, there is a coolness in this incense, and... white plums."

"The name of this incense is 'Snow Queen'." Erika laughed deeply, "The method I read in an ancient Chinese book is to steam agarwood and flowers at the same time, and the agarwood produced in this way will naturally bring Blooming, this fragrance is infused with specially processed mint and white plum."

"It's a very suitable name." Akashi put down his incense and said lightly, "I haven't seen you go to school in the past few days, what happened?"

Erica shook her head with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, the family is preparing for my Kai Chuan ceremony, so I just took a few days off."

"Really?" Akashi raised his golden and red eyes, suddenly leaned over and grabbed her wrist, and pulled it in front of his eyes, "Then what's going on?"

The sleeves of the black kimono slid down, revealing the slender arms, as well as... large swaths of bruises and welts.

Erica's smile faltered.The burgundy eyes quietly watched Akashi Seijuro, and after a while, she smiled again.

"Oh, I've been found out, I can't help it." She tilted her head, and tapped her forehead playfully with the other hand, "Erica's skipping class and going to Tokyo was discovered by my father, so he sent a message." There was a lot of fire, my father's temper is like this, there is really nothing I can do about it."

Akashi was silent, his fingers tightened unconsciously.Erika put her other hand lightly on his wrist, dimpled from a deep smile.

"Don't show such an expression, Zheng-chan. Soon, everything will be over." Erica let her sleeves slide down to cover those tragic marks, "Speaking of which, I ask Zheng-chan about it, Zheng-chan Are you ready?"

"...Well." Akashi let go of his hand, "It's ready."

"Then there's no problem." Erica winked at Akashi playfully, and took out a cherry blossom handbag and handed it over, "This is the black square I made recently according to the ancient method, and Zhengjiang will use it to smoke clothes. "

Akashi Seijuro paused his hand, then took the handbag calmly.

"Ah."

Erika lowered her eyes, and the shadow of her eyelashes swept down, turning her wine-red eyes into an inexplicable dark color.

"Tomorrow is my Jiechuan Ceremony." Her ending sound was full of meaning, "Zhengjiang must come."

Akashi Seijuro nodded calmly.

"I will."

"Are you ready?"

"Ah."

***

On the way back, Akashi Seijuro opened the handbag in the car.A blank sheet of paper popped out, and he pulled it out.

[to levy sauce:

Erica specially selected the best spices, must use Zhengjiang! (>w<*)]

Two incense pills fell into his hands.He crushed it blankly, and two things appeared in the fragrant pill.

Finger bones of children and women.

Akashi's pupils shrank almost imperceptibly.

***

After Akashi left.

The sliding door of the Japanese room was pulled open again.The housekeeper bowed down to Erica respectfully.

"A gentleman is looking for you."

Erika put down her broom and raised her eyebrows.

"Oh?"

"It's a gentleman who calls himself 'Ichinose Qiao'." The corner of the housekeeper's mouth twitched imperceptibly, with a flash of disgust, "With all due respect, in your capacity, you should associate with such a person ,It is really……"

"Miss Yashima." Erica looked over calmly, "Ask him to come in."

"………………yes."

The housekeeper unconsciously shook hands, then let go, bowed respectfully to Erica and left.

Erika Futekoji put her fragrant finger close to her lips, and lightly poked the dimple on the right side of her cheek, showing a very sweet smile.She said the name with a smile in such a helpless and doting tone.

"Qiaojiang, it's really terrible." She smiled and kissed her fingers, "How can I let you survive?"

Her tone was like a whisper between lovers, as if she was saying "I really can't do anything about you".

"Come into this house so recklessly, you will be killed."
