Chapter 121: Where is the soul?

~4 min read 751 words

Looking at Akaso Kaze's back, Kamijo Hideko's eyes sparkled.

"As expected of an Onmyoji, firm-willed and highly skilled. My intentions and methods were all easily calculated by you."

"But this way, my interest is even stronger."

Kamijo Hideko stuck out her little red tongue and licked her lips.

"I will definitely achieve my goal, little handsome, wait for me."

In the distance, Akaso Kaze's mouth curled slightly, and he withdrew his Space Eye.

Seen enough, time to go find Ran.

It's just the tourist season, and there are many people in the hotel.

The facilities here are very complete, and there is even a swimming pool.

Unfortunately, after the incident in the sea this morning, Ran wouldn't swim with Akaso Kaze no matter what.

The two strolled for a while and came to the observation deck on the roof.

They happened to see a familiar figure.

"Mr. Maeda, you're here too."

Akaso Kaze greeted him.

"So it's Mr. Akaso and Miss Mouri. You two are really a good match."

Ran's face flushed, but after being with Akaso Kaze, she had been complimented often, and she had gradually gotten used to it.

"Where is Miss Akiko?" she asked curiously.

"Her? She's just jealous. Just now at the open-air restaurant, because I looked at Ms. Hideko twice more, she started acting up with me."

Maeda Satoshi scratched the back of his head honestly.

He looked at his watch.

"Time is almost up, Akiko's anger should have subsided, I should be able to go back."

He said goodbye to the two and walked toward the elevator with his hands in his pockets.

With no acquaintances around, Akaso Kaze hugged Ran.

Ran moved as if to resist, but didn't break free, so she comfortably enjoyed it.

The two looked at the night sky, dotted with stars, and couldn't help but feel relaxed.

"What a beautiful starry sky!" Ran exclaimed.

"No night sky is as beautiful as half of you," Akaso Kaze murmured in her ear.

Ran's heart was about to melt.

She slowly softened into Akaso Kaze's arms.

Akaso Kaze turned her body around, held her delicate little face, and kissed her in front of everyone.

I don't know how long it had been, but the noisy sounds around them woke the two from their intoxication.

"What? Someone fell from upstairs?"

"Yeah, the whole person was pierced by the bronze statue in the third-floor open-air restaurant, and the blood, it was flowing everywhere, it was really terrible."

"It seems something happened, let's go down and find Dad and Conan."

Ran said worriedly.

"Alright."

Although he knew it had nothing to do with the two of them, Akaso Kaze didn't want to make Ran worry.

The two held hands and walked toward the elevator.

"Huh, Akaso-san, look, is that Mr. Ebara?"

The two came to the open-air restaurant on the first floor and happened to see Conan lifting the mask of the deceased.

Sure enough, the person who died was Ebara Tokio.

Akaso Kaze used his Space Eye to look around and couldn't help but frown slightly.

Strange, the soul was not on the statue with the spear tip pointing up.

This was somewhat unexpected.

He had originally planned to wait until the case was closed and take the whole statue away in the name of transcending the soul.

Presumably, the hotel would definitely welcome it; not only would Akaso Kaze not have to spend money, but they might even give him a sum.

Who knew, the soul wasn't on it.

This was a bit strange.

Could it be on Sayama Akiko's head?

That would be a bit troublesome.

The police probably wouldn't allow him to cut a lock of hair from the murderer.

Akaso Kaze didn't pay much attention.

It was just a soul, having it or not didn't make much difference.

Following the God of Death Conan, would he be short of one or two souls?

"Lord Akaso!"

A coral head suddenly appeared in front of Akaso Kaze.

"Have you forgotten me? I'm Yokomizo, we met in Saitama Prefecture, I just transferred to the Shizuoka Prefectural Police Department last month."

"Oh, so it's Officer Yokomizo."

Akaso Kaze was quite puzzled.

Last time, this officer wasn't anything special to him, why is he so enthusiastic now?

Officer Yokomizo was very excited.

After going back last time, the more he interrogated the criminal, the stranger he felt.

He always felt that from a certain moment, the criminal suddenly became full of flaws. ===== CHAPTER 123 =====
