A Sorcerer in the Detective World

"Wow! This dress is so beautiful!"

"Well, this one is not bad. I think it suits you very well, Kazuye.??"

"And this one, it matches you very well, Xiaolan!"

"..."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, in a women's clothing store in Shibuya, Tsukamoto Sumi, Xiaolan, and Ye gathered together, holding a dazzling variety of clothes in their hands, and chattering away.

On the seats next to them for guests to rest, Shu Yunwen, Conan, and Hattori Heiji sat together. Hattori Heiji looked at Kazuha, raised his hand and looked at his watch, with a look of helplessness on his face:

"... Damn it, we had promised to visit the streets of Shibuya before, but the three of them couldn't walk when they saw the store. Now they are in the fourth store."

Conan held his chin in his hand and said, "...I can't help it. Girls go shopping like this. Uncle Maori had obviously thought of this a long time ago, so he hid in the car and slept, and asked us to call him when we left..."

Hattori raised his hand to look at his watch, scratched his head and said, "...Really, that fellow Kazuha is planning to go to Meiji Shrine to worship the gods and pray for blessings. How can he have time like this?"

"Meiji Jingu Shrine? Are you planning to go to Meiji Jingu Shrine to worship the gods and pray for blessings?" Shu Yunwen glanced at Hattori and then said, "...If you really want to worship the gods and pray for blessings, you might as well go to Mihua Shrine..."

Shu Yunwen and Tsukamoto Sumimi have been to Meiji Shrine several times. There are no gods in it at all. It is just a place that deceives people to get incense.

Praying for blessings in this kind of place is useless. On the contrary, there are two fake "gods" in Mihua Shrine, Tomoya and Tatsuo, which are of some use...

"...Well, actually worshiping gods and praying for blessings is secondary! The point is that Kazuha has never been to Meiji Shrine, so he just wants to see it..." Hattori Heiji waved his hand, then suddenly held his forehead and said, " ...He Ye took the clothes to the fitting room again. She only tried them on but didn't buy them. I really don't know what the point is..."

"This is a woman!" Conan said with emotion, but the content of his words was seriously inconsistent with his age and temperament.

Then, as if Conan remembered something, he turned to look at Shu Yunwen and said: "... By the way, classmate Yunwen, two weeks ago, Detective Yueshui asked you if you were paying attention to the Hokkaido murder case. Are you still? Remember?"

"Crossing the water for seven months? Murder case?" Shu Yunwen thought about it and said, "...I remember it.

What's this for, you ask? "

Conan frowned and said seriously: "...Actually, I am a little concerned about what Detective Yueshui said about Hokkaido. I have been investigating the murder cases in Hokkaido during this period of time in the past two weeks. Now the two recent ones Within a month, eight bizarre serial murders occurred in Hokkaido, with as many as 35 victims..."

"...At first glance, these eight serial murder cases seem to be the bizarre killing behaviors of perverted murderers, but if you analyze them carefully, you will find that this is not the case. Also, only one of these eight serial murder cases has been solved so far. , it was the one that Sonoko happened to meet when she was in Hokkaido. According to the arrested prisoner, his murder plan was planned for him by an unknown person..."

"Ah?!" Shu Yunwen and Hattori were both stunned. Hattori then asked, "Hey, kid, are you trying to say that the eight serial murder cases in Hokkaido might all be that unknown person? Was it made by humans?"

"Uh... I'm just guessing." Conan smiled dryly, scratched his head, and then said seriously, "... I think Detective Yuesui went to Hokkaido before, and he probably had the same suspicion as me and went there specifically to investigate. …”

"Detective Koshizui? Is that the one named Koshizui Nanatsuki?" Hattori Heiji frowned.

A few people were talking, and suddenly they heard Xiaolan say "Ah": "...Does this store still sell jewelry? They all look so beautiful~"

Tsukamoto Sumi stood next to Xiaolan and said with a smile: "...Xiaoran, this orange bracelet looks great!"

"Really! Can you give it to me to try?"

Xiaolan asked the clerk for the bracelet and put it on her hand. Conan's eyes were also attracted and he blinked twice.

Xiaolan tried the bracelet and reluctantly returned it. Hattori reached out and poked Conan: "Hey, Kudo, why are you so dumbfounded? Did you hear the question I asked you?"

"Huh? What?" Conan was stunned for a moment, and Hattori Heiji asked: "...I just asked you, does that Koshimizu Nanatsuki know some clues about the unidentified person in Hokkaido?"

"This... maybe? Hattori, let's talk about it later~"

Conan waved his hand, and then pulled Shu Yunwen to Xiaolan and Shumei. He looked at the bracelet in the display area of ​​the counter and said, "Ah! Sister Xiaolan, do you like this bracelet very much?"

"Well, it's okay!" Xiaolan nodded, feeling sorry for her wallet, "...it only costs 21,000 yen, which is too expensive!"

"Uh..." Shu Yunwen looked down at Conan, thoughtfully——

By the way, is this guy Conan planning to...

Ten minutes later, Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi and others walked out of the store together and walked a short distance to the front. After entering another women's clothing store, Conan suddenly said "Ah" and pretended to pick his pockets: "...Xiao. Sister Lan, I seem to have forgotten my wallet in the store just now. I’ll go back and get it..."

"...Well, okay, then we'll wait for you here." Xiaolan nodded in agreement.

Conan nodded "Yeah", then tugged on the corner of Shu Yunwen's clothes: "Brother Yunwen, can you come with me?"

"Huh?" Shu Yunwen looked strange - is this guy crazy?

Shu Yunwen walked out with Conan. After walking a few steps, Conan took out his wallet, looked at it, stretched out his hand to Shu Yunwen and said, "Hey, I only brought my coin purse today. I don't have enough money. Lend me 20,000 yen." I’ll pay you back tomorrow…”

"Ha..." Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and rubbed Conan's head, "...What? Do you want to buy a gift for your Xiaolan?"

"I want you to take care of it!" Conan rolled his eyes at Shu Yunwen.

…

At the same time, Shumei, Xiaolan, and Heye were chatting again while choosing clothes.

Heye held a piece of clothing in front of him and gestured: "...Xiaolan, are you going to Mihua University tomorrow?"

"...That's right. Mihua University will hold an event tomorrow and my dad has been invited. I plan to go there too..." Xiaolan replied with a smile, "It's a pity that Hattori and Kazuha have to attend a wedding tomorrow. Otherwise, we can go together. …”

"...Activities in the university, that's really a pity..." Heye sighed, then turned to look at Shumei and said, "...Sister Shumei, are you free tomorrow? If you are free, you can go with classmate Shu. Take a look, it will be interesting..."

"Me?" Tsukamoto Sumi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "...I have other things to do tomorrow, so I probably won't have time..." 8
