Chapter 138

On his chest, a Nine of Spades poker card was as striking as the Grim Reaper’s scythe.

"Mr. Asahi?" Mouri Kogoro shouted in shock.

Inspector Megure also shouted, "Nine of Spades! That murderer has really lurked in here!"

Shishido Eimei shouted anxiously from behind, "This door is controlled by a computer; it won't open now!"

"What did you say?"

Inspector Megure hurriedly took out his mobile phone, "Quickly notify the police on the surface!"

He looked down and froze.

"We’re under the sea; there’s no signal!"

Mouri Kogoro rushed to the cashier, grabbed the telephone receiver, and listened for a moment, "Damn it! The phone line has also been cut!"

He dropped the phone and rushed inside, "I’ll go look for other exits."

"It looks like the criminal intends to trap us all here and kill us one by one."

Conan’s expression was grave as he pinched his chin, "In that case, the next one should be Miss Oyamauchi Nana."

Oyamauchi Nana was already trembling all over in fear.

She leaned tightly against Akaso Kaze, causing Ran to glare at him.

"I’m sorry, I’m so scared; could you please let Lord Akaso save me?"

Oyamauchi Nana pleaded pitifully.

Ran had a very kind heart; seeing Oyamauchi Nana so pitiful, she nodded sympathetically.

"Alright, I’ll lend Akaso-san to you for now; I’ll go protect Dad."

Seeing Ran leave so generously, Akaso Kaze was a bit surprised.

Oyamauchi Nana took the opportunity to lean over and hug Akaso Kaze’s arm tightly.

"Lord Onmyoji, you must help me; I don't want to die."

Akaso Kaze looked at her, his mouth curling slightly.

"What, you know how to be scared now?"

"You are the criminal’s main target, you know."

"Wh-what?" Oyamauchi Nana was so scared she was about to cry, "Why would he come after me?"

"Three months ago, didn't you almost hit someone while driving? That motorcyclist who fell is the criminal this time."

Oyamauchi Nana had a premonition; otherwise, she had no relationship with Mouri Kogoro, so how could she have fallen into such a situation?

Hearing Akaso Kaze’s confirmation, her legs went weak with fear.

"Lord Akaso, you must save me; I don't want to die. As long as you can save me, I’ll agree to anything."

As she said this, she rubbed her chest against Akaso Kaze.

This Onmyoji had both power and influence; there wasn't much she could offer.

Akaso Kaze’s mouth curled slightly.

"Stay obediently by my side, and you won't die."

"Mm-hmm, I will definitely listen to Lord Akaso."

Oyamauchi Nana nodded quickly.

In the underground restaurant, in the lounge.

Sawaki Kohei was lying on the sofa, legs spread, butt sticking out, his expression anxious and slightly uneasy.

The next target of the plan was Oyamauchi Nana.

But now he was in the lounge, and Oyamauchi Nana was in the hall, separated by a corridor; the distance wasn't short.

Soon, the power-outage trap he set would take effect; he had to rush to the hall to kill the woman who caused him to lose his sense of taste.

Injured like this, can I really do it?

Thinking of the harm that woman caused him, Sawaki Kohei was filled with hatred.

No, I absolutely cannot let her go.

Even if I get injured further, I must take revenge!

"Mr. Sawaki, you’re quite lucky; this place is actually equipped with a medical kit, and there’s hemostatic medicine."

Officer Shiratori said while treating the wound.

Lucky my ass!

Sawaki Kohei was crying without tears, but he could only force a smile and reply, "Yes, thanks to Officer Shiratori."

"Mr. Sawaki, next I will use alcohol cotton to help wipe the wound, and then help you bandage it; it might be a bit painful, please endure it."

Officer Shiratori picked up the tweezers, clamped a large cotton ball, and wiped it on Sawaki Kohei’s wound.

Sawaki Kohei hissed in pain.

Suddenly, the lights went out, and the entire building plunged into darkness.

Sawaki Kohei’s eyes lit up, and a smile couldn't help but appear.

The time has come!

Officer Shiratori was concentrating on treating the wound when everything went black before his eyes.

His hand shook reflexively, and he pushed forward a few centimeters.

The tip of the tweezers suddenly felt resistance.

In the darkness, Sawaki Kohei’s smile froze instantly, then his mouth stretched wide, and he let out a scream like a wolf’s howl.

You bastard!

You stabbed me to death!

In the hall, the sudden power outage scared Oyamauchi Nana.

She curled her entire body into Akaso Kaze’s arms.

Akaso Kaze held her and couldn't help but praise.

As expected of a supermodel, this figure is amazing.

He used his Eye of Space to look around.

Huh, why isn't the criminal here?

After thinking for a moment, he extended his Eye of Space toward the lounge.

"Lord Akaso, let’s hide in the corner."

Oyamauchi Nana hugged Akaso Kaze and shrank into the corner.

Akaso Kaze, of course, had no objections.

Leading Oyamauchi Nana to the corner of the hall, Akaso Kaze protected her in a triangle.

"Miss Nana, why is there glow-in-the-dark paint on your hands?"

Oyamauchi Nana looked down and saw purple light radiating from the tips of her ten fingers, which was very conspicuous in the dark; she started trembling in fear.

"This is the nail polish that came with the invitation. What should I do, Lord Akaso?"

"That’s simple, just hide it well," Akaso Kaze said casually.

Oyamauchi Nana hurriedly tried to hide her hands on her body.

But a woman’s clothing is already minimal and thin; how could it cover the glowing paint?

Oyamauchi Nana put her hands everywhere, and finally found a suitable place.

*Hiss!*

Akaso Kaze gasped.

He had been focused on finding the criminal and hadn't paid attention to Oyamauchi Nana’s actions.

Why did this woman hide her hands there?

And she’s rubbing them around.

Hey, you shouldn't be doing that.

In the darkness, Oyamauchi Nana said tremulously, "Lord Akaso, I... I think I also applied the lipstick that came as a gift. Is it dangerous?"

"Dangerous, of course it’s dangerous..."

Akaso Kaze said hesitantly.
