The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 137 An encounter in front of the shrine

Koizumi Hongzi looked at the magic talismans drawn by Qin Zhibo in surprise. Every one of them could be used directly after being endowed with magic power.

You must know that it took Koizumi Hongzi three full days to draw all 40 magic symbols to the point where they were usable.

Making magic props can test the talent of a magician to a certain extent, and Qin Zhibo’s talent can be said to be

So good!

This couldn't help but make Koizumi Hongzi feel happy. After all, Qin Zhibo had already eaten his heart-catching chocolate, and now it was equivalent to his own property.

When Qin Zhibo grows up to become a great magician in the future, wouldn't she be the most powerful witch with a great magician as her possession?

In the entire history of the Red Magic family, there has not even been a great magician!

Thinking of this, Koizumi Hongzi couldn't help but laugh like a silver bell.

“Oh ho ho ho—”

In the next few days, Qin Zhibo was either doing daily tasks such as derailment investigation and finding pets, or studying the magic book given by Koizumi Hongzi in the office.

It seems that social credit has reached a certain critical point. Qin Zhibo, who now has 2530 social credit, can gradually receive some daily commissions.

In these daily commissions, Qin Zhibo can also use some basic spells taught by Koizumi Hongzi.

Such as the finding spell.

The finding spell, as the name suggests, is a spell that can find lost objects, including living and non-living things.

The method of use is very simple, just imagine the appearance of the lost item in your mind, and then recite the spell silently.

Each time you release the finding spell, you need to consume 1 point of magic power, and you can get the general direction of the object you want to find at your current location.

Of course, this spell is not foolproof and may go wrong.

For example, the impression of lost items is unclear, the lost items are too common or too rare in life, and the lost items are too far away.

These situations may lead to the search for other similar things or failure of the search.

Out of curiosity, Qin Zhibo also tried to imagine what MI-GO looked like in his mind, and then used the finding-object spell.

The result really got a direction.

Not far after following this direction, Qin Zhibo found cooked and frozen lobster in the freezer in a supermarket.

Including kobolds, Qin Zhibo also got a vague direction in his brain after using the finding spell, and followed the direction to find a bull terrier raised by someone else.

It seems that there are not as many magical creatures as imagined.

Therefore, a way to increase your chances of success is to hold a photo of the object, or a hair from the creature.

With the help of the finding spell, Qin Zhibo is naturally very handy and surprisingly efficient in finding lost pets.

In addition, the Maori detectives from the nearby Maori Detective Agency often shirk small commissions such as finding lost pets for various reasons.

This led to Qin Zhibo's reputation as a "pet-hunting expert" slowly spreading in nearby neighborhoods.

However, if there are too many commissions, Qin Zhibo's magic power will be consumed very quickly.

So when he went to Koizumi Hongzi's house to learn magic on his days off, it was also Qin Zhibo's "magic replenishing" time.

Find various opportunities to use the magic extractor to touch Koizumi Anko's magic props, or touch Koizumi Anko herself, or even simply stay in a witch's house full of magic power to achieve the effect of "replenishing magic".

After one trip, Qin Zhibo could get almost 40 points of magic power.

In fact, this is one of the reasons why Qin Zhibo asked Koizumi Hongzi to learn magic.

Because if you simply extract magic power without using magic, the magic power extractor, which can store up to 100 points of magic power, will soon be full and lose its role.

Therefore, if you want the magic extractor to continue to function, learning magic is also necessary.

Therefore, although Qin Zhibo had obtained detailed information about Koizumi Hongzi, he did not provide this information to Nine Angels.

Although the Nine Angels Organization may not be detrimental to Koizumi Hongzi, there are still some risks.

This is equivalent to Qin Zhibo using the 500,000 reward promised by Nine Angels in exchange for the opportunity to learn magic.

It’s so suitable!

However, from a long-term perspective, Qin Zhibo, who has no magic power, cannot rely too much on magic, otherwise it will be tantamount to relying too much on Koizumi Hongzi's magic replenishment.

Losing Koizumi Anko is equivalent to losing one's own channel to mend demons.

Qin Zhibo asked from Koizumi Hongzi whether there were any other witches in Japan.

Koizumi Anko’s answer is that Japan is too big, so it’s not clear, but she must be the only witch in Tokyo.

There are no witches, but there are women with magical powers.

It's just that such a woman is rare and extremely difficult to find. Qin Zhibo's current way to mend his demons is through Koizumi Hongzi.

Fortunately, Koizumi Anko's magic power will not permanently decrease and will recover after sleeping just like her physical strength.

Therefore, the possibility of Koizumi Hongzi being "squeezed dry" by Qin Zhibo does not exist.

On this day, Qin Zhibo studied at the Witch's House until the afternoon as usual, preparing to take the butler's car back to Tokyo.

As a result, when he got into the car, Qin Zhibo discovered that Koizumi Hongzi had also come out with him.

"No need to send it off, you can go back."

Qin Zhibo, who was sitting in the car, waved his hand back, but Koizumi Hongzi ignored him and walked over to open the car door.

The butler sitting in the driver's seat glanced at Koizumi Hongzi behind him and asked: "Lord Hongzi, are you going there?"

"Um"

Koizumi Anko, who is usually arrogant and queenly, can actually make a soft voice like a little girl.

Before sunset, the stretched Maybach parked in front of a low mountain in Tokyo.

Through the map on the navigator, Qin Zhibo knew that this was the Mihua Shrine.

Koizumi Hongzi got off the car and walked up the mountain, and Qin Zhibo followed with some interest.

"I didn't expect that your majestic witch would still believe in Japanese shrines?"

"Hey! Who said that witches have to believe in weird things?" Koizumi Hongzi's eyes were a little sad, "Those evil god summons and the like are just tools to achieve their goals and cannot be regarded as beliefs."

"If you believe in them, you will be like your mother."

Koizumi Anko didn't finish her words, but it was obvious that Koizumi Anko's mother, whom she had barely mentioned, was probably traveling westward.

Not long after walking, the stone monument of Mihua Shrine stood in front of me.

Before he could fully stand under the highest torii gate, Qin Zhibo heard a series of complaining voices coming from the top of the mountain.

"Hey Hey hey!"

"You said there would be a scene with Okino Yoko today, so I came here specially!"

"I turned down a big commission just to come to see Ms. Yoko's live performance! But you said that Ms. Yoko had something to do and couldn't come?"

This angry voice sounded familiar for some reason.

Walking up the steps, Qin Zhibo saw those familiar people.

The people on the opposite side were also surprised when they saw Qin Zhibo.

"Mr. Qin!"

Koizumi Hongzi, who was standing next to Qin Zhibo, looked at Mao Lilan standing in the open space in front of the shrine in surprise.

"Nakamori-san?"
