The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"By the way, where is that boy Kaito?"

Faced with Qin Zhibo's question, Koizumi Hongzi snorted coldly, "Maybe he went to find one of those two women?"

Jealousy is part of a woman's nature.

Qin Zhibo could tell that Koizumi Hongzi was a little jealous that Kuroba Kaito performed a magic trick on the new girl he met today and gave her a rose.

But based on his understanding of Kuroba Kaito, this shouldn't be the case.

Unless the person this boy wants to sleep with tonight is not himself, but the two girls.

"It's impossible. I don't think Kaito even remembers their names."

"Impossible?" Koizumi Hongzi seemed to feel somewhat comforted, her eyes brightened, but she said suspiciously.

"Why do you think so?"

"There is no better son than a father."

Qin Zhibo's answer made Koizumi Hongzi not know what to say for a moment.

"Forget it, he might have gone to gather in the hall first."

"But tonight, I have a bad feeling in my heart..."

Saying that, Koizumi Hongzi picked up the tarot card on the desk, which was still the goat-headed devil card.

“I’ve done divination many times, but the final results are all demonic.”

"..." Qin Zhibo paused for a moment, "What do you mean?"

Koizumi Anko explained with a serious face: "The devil symbolizes temptation, enslaves human beings with interests, creates impulses, and dominates reason..."

"But when life ends, all matter becomes meaningless, and only demons are left trampling on human corpses."

Koizumi Hongzi’s divination has always been of reference significance.

And this is the result of her divination that has remained unchanged all the way, and it will not change whether Conan comes or not.

The devil's temptation...

These two keywords reminded Qin Zhibo of the story described in the "Dark Magic Girl" comic he had just read.

The protagonist of this comic was originally an ordinary female high school student, but she suffered from campus bullying for a long time.

Bullying by classmates, neglect by teachers, and indifference from parents ultimately led this girl to commit suicide.

After the death of the girl, the soul traveled to the underworld, walked on the dirty soil of the underworld, and met a black gentleman.

The black gentleman calls himself the "Guide" and claims that as long as he signs a contract with him, he can be reincarnated into the world and given the ability to use black magic.

The price is that after death, the soul will be included in the "Book of Death" and will never be reincarnated.

At first, the girl's heart was tangled.

But under the guidance of the black gentleman, the moment he put his hand on the "Book of Death", he saw the picture of himself being bullied and ignored during his lifetime, and he agreed to the black gentleman.

When the girl revived in the world, she had changed into a better-looking body and had the ability to control black magic.

So the girl changed her name to Kira, and returned to the girls' high school where she once attended as a girl from a wealthy foreign family.

Due to the new identity setting with various top-level buffs, Kira quickly became the most popular in the grade, and the boys who once bullied her came to fawn over her.

So, she began to slowly instigate the boys who had bullied her, and in turn bullied the girls who bullied her.

The bullying girl also knew that Kira was behind the instigation, so she used her family connections to put pressure on the school principal.

However, Kira directly used black magic to control the principal, and in turn, the bully girl.

Not only that, but the class teacher who had ignored her being bullied was disgraced, his wife and children were separated, and he eventually hanged himself.

Later, Kira began to enter business, using black magic to operate in the business world, and brought down the company of the bullying girl's family.

The bullying girl's family plummeted, and all the followers around her turned to follow Kira.

But just when everyone thought Kira would deal with the bully in the same way she was bullied, Kira accepted the bully with a kind face.

The bullying girl was extremely moved by this and vowed to become a follower of Kira.

But she didn't know that it was Kira who ruined her family's company.

And Kira also wanted to further drain the remaining value of the bully until not even a drop was left...

The latest comic singles are updated here.

There is an easter egg at the end. It seems that a high-ranking person who once knew Kira's identity discovered Kira's existence and felt incredible that Kira came back from the dead.

Although the easter egg uses the words "New character, is he an enemy? Is he a friend?" to increase the sense of suspense, Qin Zhibo guessed that he must be an enemy.

The whole comic looks really cool, especially the contrast between the scene where Kira faces her former bully, smiling on the surface but hating her inwardly.

Half of the face is bright and half of the face is dark, which brings a very strong impact to the picture.

But there are still many references to this comic, such as "The Count of Monte Cristo", the originator of Shuangwen.

There is even a shadow of Light Yagami, the originator of the name "Kira".

But what impressed Qin Zhibo deeply was the black gentleman he met when Kira fell into the underworld.

He claims to be a "guide", but Qin Zhibo feels closer to a "devil" in the traditional sense.

That was not a certain race of people wearing black clothes, but a person covered in pitch black.

Qin Zhibo had seen this image before in the real world and in dreams.

A man with black hair, skin, eyes, and even teeth...

It's probably just a coincidence.

Qin Zhibo thought to himself.

…

7:50

In the villa hall, people arrived one after another.

Except for Koizumi Hongzi, who brought her own costume, everyone else put on a uniform black cloak, including Qin Zhibo.

The host Hirasaka checked the number of people, only to find that there was one less person.

"like……"

Before Birasaka could say anything, Qin Zhibo took the initiative to report it.

"One less Kuroba Kaito."

"Where did he go?" Hirasaka asked.

"He has a stomachache, maybe because he had too much dinner, and it will take some time to resolve..."

Hirasaka thought for a moment and looked a little embarrassed, "But the time for the spirit seance ceremony is coming soon..."

"It doesn't matter, he said there's no need to wait for him, the ceremony can go on as normal."

Faced with Qin Zhibo's words, no one doubted it, except the short-haired girl who had some worry in her eyes.

"Okay then, let's go to the meditation room first."

Under the guidance of Hirasaka, everyone headed towards the tower on the right side of the villa in the dim corridor.

Qin Zhibo walked at the back of the crowd, and Koizumi Hongzi followed him and asked quietly, "Why didn't you tell the truth just now?"

Qin Zhibo replied, "What's the truth? That Kaito is missing and we can all look for it together?"

"Don't worry, he's Kaitou Kidd, he won't get lost that easily~"

When he came to the hall and found out that Kuroba Kaito was not there, Qin Zhibo used the Searching Object Charm to search for Kuroba Kaito's face.

Judging from the strength of his inspiration, Kuroba Kaito is not in the villa now.

Not in the villa, but in the nearby forest.

Maybe during the exploration process, I discovered some clues, so I went out to look for clues.

If this is the case, of course it is impossible for him to mobilize everyone to search for it.

Moreover, during the seance ceremony, the truth about the death of actress Huang Yahara last year may be discovered.

After listening to Qin Zhibo's explanation, Koizumi Hongzi felt that it made sense and felt relieved.

After all, the man who made himself, a witch, fail repeatedly, should have more trust in him.

Eh?

Why should I trust him?

…

During the meditation period, the room that Hirasaka had been bragging about finally appeared in front of everyone.

This is a spacious birdcage-shaped space, similar to the Kudo family's study, but not as big as the Kudo family's study.

In the center of the room, there is a huge round table with a diameter of 2 meters. The round table is covered with a purple velvet tablecloth with complex geometric patterns painted on it.

Around the round table are photos of actress Huang Yahara during her lifetime.

The beauty in the photo has short orange hair and a dimple-like smile, but it feels inexplicably weird in this scene.

"This is the meditation room that I am proud of!"

Hirasaka's tone was a little passionate, and the others could only follow his words and give him a few flattering words.

"awesome……"

"really not bad……"

Koizumi Anko walked around the room and finally looked down at the floor.

What is carved on the floor is not the traditional five-pointed star or six-pointed star, but the very rare seven-pointed star.

Looking at this pattern, Koizumi Hongzi frowned slightly.

Qin Zhibo noticed the subtle changes in Koizumi Hongzi's expression, walked to her side, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Koizumi Anko pointed to the seven-pointed star on the floor, "What is depicted here is a rare seven-pointed star."

"Legend has it that the seven-pointed star has a mysterious power that far exceeds that of the five-pointed star and the six-pointed star, but almost no one can control this power..."

At this moment, Hirasaka stood behind the two of them at some unknown time, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"It seems that Miss Quan has also done some research on mysticism. It really made me see it in a new light..."

"The seven-pointed star contains powerful magic and is known as 'extremely uneven but stable'."

"In order to bring out the magic source in the seven-pointed star, someone wrote the names of the seven archangels on the seven vertices to achieve the purpose of enchantment.

"There are also people who use the four elements of wind, fire, water, and earth, plus light and darkness, and human emotions to enchant."

"But I feel that both of the above methods are incorrect and cannot highlight the characteristics of the seven-pointed star..."

Qin Zhibo turned to look at Hirasaka, "So what is your method?"

Hirasaka smiled, shook his head, and walked away without answering.

Qin Zhibo looked at Hirasaka's back and felt an inexplicable strange feeling in his heart.

This person not only likes to create comics, but also seems to believe in the magic in comics?

Or are you talking about doing some work?

Seeing Hirasaka leave, Koizumi Anko next to him continued: "In addition to the two he mentioned, I also know a way..."

"This is a method that only witches know. It is to let the seven witches of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, indigo and purple cast spells at the seven vertices of the seven-pointed star at the same time."

"The seven colors come together to form black."

"The arrival of black means the birth of the Supreme Witch."

"But the problem is that the seven-pointed star here is reversed. No matter which method is used to activate it, once power is born from it, it must be an extremely evil and taboo existence."

"Inverted?" Qin Zhibo asked in confusion, "How did you tell that the seven-pointed star was inverted?"

In Qin Zhibo's view, the so-called difference in graphics is nothing more than the choice of observation angle.

Koizumi Hongzi looked up at the skylight of the meditation room, "Did you see that skylight?"

"Yeah." Qin Zhibo nodded.

Koizumi Hongzi explained: "The skylight is designed to face the direction of the moonlight. As long as on certain days, the moonlight can be guaranteed to shine directly."

"When constructing a magic circle, any magic circle with its top corner facing the moonlight is in the upright position."

"On the contrary, it is reversed."

Based on Koizumi Hongzi's popular magic knowledge, Qin Zhibo discovered after a little identification that the top angle of the seven-pointed star on the floor was exactly opposite to the skylight.

And today's moonlight happens to shine directly in through the skylight, creating this standard reversed seven-pointed star.

Is this intentional or accidental?

…

At 8:00, the seance ceremony begins on time.

A total of 9 people sit around a round table, cross their hands in front of them, and then hold the hands of those nearby.

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi were sitting together. Next to them were the man with glasses who was a TV director, and the yellow-haired girl who was a photo idol.

In the dark environment, apart from the moonlight shining directly from the window, the only light source was a few candlesticks lit on the surrounding cabinets and bookshelves.

After a moment of collective silence, Hirazaka, directly opposite Qin Zhibo, chanted in a deep voice.

"Souls lost in the dark night, answer our call to you..."

"Come back..."

"Come back..."

At this time, everyone around them repeated Hirasaka's last two sentences.

"Come back...come back..."

After repeating it, Hirasaka began to use prophecies that he had never heard before and recited some words with unknown meanings.

Every time Hirasaka said something, the others repeated it in unison.

Qin Zhibo didn't know whether he should follow suit, so he glanced at Koizumi Hongzi next to him.

Don’t you miss Koizumi Hongzi?

Okay, I won’t read it either.

After repeating it for more than a minute, Hirasaka switched to a familiar language again.

"Let us hear your voice sealed in the dark night!"

"Ya Yuan Huang! Answer our call to you!"

“% @* # \u0026……”

Everyone repeated the same inexplicable words together, and the low but loud voice echoed in the space.

At this moment, the tableware placed in the surrounding cabinets began to shake, and a whimpering sound similar to that of a walking zombie echoed in the space.

"Woooo..."

Qin Zhibo felt Koizumi Hongzi's hand tremble, maybe frightened by the sudden change, and looked around nervously.

Koizumi Hongzi knew in her heart that this half-baked ritual would not have any effect.

Qin Zhibo also launched an investigation, but he was surrounded by huge photos and could not see the condition of the cabinet behind him.

However, with the help of other sensory organs in his body and his smart brain, he already roughly understood what was going on.

"Answer our call!"

Hirasaka's voice suddenly became high-pitched.

As soon as he finished speaking, several candles placed on the cabinet burst into flames, and the porcelain plates in the cabinet fell from their stands and fell to the ground with a shattering sound.

Snap~

The plate fell to pieces, and a strange woman's shrill, resentful voice began to appear around her.

"I'm in so much pain~"

"I'm so upset~"

"I'm good……"

Just when everyone was immersed in this terrifying atmosphere, the ghost's screams suddenly stopped.

"Huh? What's going on?"

"What's wrong? Why did it suddenly disappear?"

"Xiao Huang?"

Everyone looked around in confusion, full of doubts about the sudden cessation of the ghostly screams.

At this time, Qin Zhibo was seen walking out from behind a photo and said calmly.

"Don't panic, everyone."

"I turned off the tape..."
