Chapter 180: Ayako Suzuki raising her little face in the shrine

Kaito Kuroba looked at the recording on the monitor, a triumphant smile on his face:

"Hahaha! They definitely wouldn't think that I would install a camera on the pigeon's leg to monitor their every move."

"Now, the police have indeed gone to another place with the Memory Egg as I expected. Without Akaso Kaze guarding the Memory Egg personally, who else can stop me, Kaitou Kid?"

"Just watch! This time I will definitely steal the Memory Egg with my own hands and let you see the strength of Kaitou Kid!"

Osaka Castle Park, Namba Bukuro Shrine.

Because according to Kogoro Mouri's reasoning, there was still a considerable amount of time before Kaitou Kid's arrival, everyone dispersed to handle their own affairs.

Akaso Kaze received an invitation from Ayako Suzuki to go play together.

Arriving at the shrine's fortune-telling bucket, Akaso Kaze picked one up at random.

"Mr. Akaso, what did you draw?"

Ayako Suzuki looked over curiously, "Your future cannot be predicted? What a strange fortune."

Akaso Kaze curled his lips and threw the fortune away.

Saying this is the same as saying nothing; it's truly a typical practice of a charlatan.

Ayako Suzuki also reached out and drew one, opened it, and her face suddenly turned red.

"Ayako, what did you draw?" Akaso Kaze asked casually.

"No, nothing~"

Ayako Suzuki's face was flushed red, and she hurriedly clutched the fortune in her hand tightly, protecting it in front of her high chest, pressing her clothes out of shape.

Akaso Kaze smiled, "If you have any wishes, you might as well ask me; I am an Onmyoji, after all."

Ayako Suzuki stole a glance at Akaso Kaze, put the fortune paper into her bosom, and then took Akaso Kaze's hand.

"Mr. Akaso, let's go inside and take a look."

Holding Ayako's little hand, it was warm, soft, and very comfortable.

Akaso Kaze was unconsciously led by her as they walked inside.

Today is a holiday, and there were quite a few people in the shrine; the two of them immediately attracted a lot of attention.

One was a handsome and dashing man, the other was a blushing beauty; their outstanding appearances attracted many gazes.

Especially some young girls, seeing Akaso Kaze's handsome appearance and charming eyes, they frequently shot fiery glances, wishing that the person holding him was themselves.

Akaso Kaze didn't mind such gazes; he had long been used to them.

Ayako Suzuki, on the other hand, rarely went out and was an absolute homebody.

Now being watched by so many people, she couldn't help but feel flustered.

She pulled Akaso Kaze straight toward a secluded area.

"Ayako, where are you going?"

Akaso Kaze was a bit dumbfounded.

Ayako Suzuki looked up; everything around was silent, there wasn't a single person, and the environment was very unfamiliar; she didn't even know where she was.

"I, I'm sorry, Mr. Akaso, so many people were staring at us just now, I, I..."

The girl blushed in embarrassment.

Akaso Kaze smiled and held her face.

"Little fool, what is there to apologize for? Anyway, we have nothing to do this afternoon; we can wander wherever we want."

Her little face was surrounded by two large, warm hands.

In her eyes was the handsome face close at hand, and Ayako Suzuki's little heart was pounding.

Thinking of the fortune she just drew.

She slowly closed her eyes and raised her little face higher.

Her pink, pouting little mouth was raised upward.

Ayako Suzuki is different from Sonoko.

Her eyes aren't big, and her mouth isn't big; it can be considered a cherry mouth.

Pouting like this, it really looks like an alluring cherry.

Looking at Ayako's cute expression, Akaso Kaze knew exactly what she needed.

0 0

His mouth curled slightly, and he wasn't in a hurry; he first wrapped Ayako's two slender arms around his neck.

Then his two arms hugged Ayako's little waist.

Only then did he lower his head.

There was no one here, only him and the beauty.

Time was abundant, so of course, he had to savor it well.

A mysterious atmosphere immediately rippled through the shrine.

【Ding, Ayako Suzuki has developed a favorable impression of you; current favorability is 2.】

Ayako Suzuki's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her heart surged like waves.

"This shrine is really spiritual; the fortune just now was really accurate. If this is the case, then tonight isn't..."

Her heart couldn't stop rippling.

Akaso Kaze didn't close his eyes; he liked watching the girl's moving expression at this moment.

Especially the way they were intoxicated, with their eyelashes flickering slightly; it was truly pleasing.

Akaso Kaze smiled secretly in his heart.

Such a harvest makes it worth using magic and a Hand of Intent to create a fortune.

If you have any wishes, you might as well ask me; I am an Onmyoji, after all!

Far away, in a corner of a shrine building.

Seiran Hoshi was observing the situation with binoculars.

She narrowed her eyes, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Just like in the intelligence, that Onmyoji really has a weakness.

It's just that if one wants to exploit such a weakness, one has to pay a high price.

Is such a price worth it?

Seiran Hoshi was hesitant.

Better to proceed according to her own plan first; if she could snatch the Memory Egg from Kaitou Kid, then there would be no need to think too much.

If she couldn't snatch it, I'm afraid she would only have to...

Seiran Hoshi bit her red lips tightly.

Just past seven o'clock in the evening, Suzuki Modern Art Museum.

Conan and Heiji Hattori walked to the front of the art museum and were met by Masato Nishino, who was talking to a woman and an old man.

Masato Nishino was Shiro Suzuki's secretary; seeing them, he greeted them: "You're back? By the way, where are Miss Sonoko and the others?"

"They'll be here in a while!" Heiji Hattori replied casually, then turned to look at the woman and the old man standing there, "Who are these two?"

"They are Miss Natsumi Kosaka and Mr. Sawabe." Masato Nishino hurriedly introduced, "Miss Kosaka is here to see Chairman Suzuki."

"Looking for Chairman Suzuki?" Heiji Hattori was stunned, "Is Chairman Suzuki not here now?"

"Yes! Because it's still a long time until midnight at three o'clock, which Kid predicted, Chairman Suzuki invited Mr. Mouri to go for a drink."

Masato Nishino replied, then continued, "The two of them seem to want to talk about the Memory Egg. According to Miss Kosaka, the Memory Egg is very likely an heirloom lost by their family, and they want to ask us to return it; they are willing to pay a sufficient price."

Not many people know that the Suzuki consortium gifted the "Memory Egg" to Akaso Kaze.

In public propaganda, the owner of the "Memory Egg" is still the Suzuki consortium.

"Their family's heirloom? Want to take it back?"

Conan was stunned and glanced at Natsumi Kosaka and the others, "Getting something from that Onmyoji is not an easy task."

"Lord Akaso, Miss Ayako, you're back too."

Masato Nishino suddenly bowed respectfully toward the two behind them.

Conan looked back at Akaso Kaze and Ayako Suzuki, who were walking over hand in hand, feeling unhappy.

Every time he sees this guy, he gets angry.

"How come Mr. Akaso is back so early? Kaitou Kid won't come until midnight."

Heiji Hattori asked.

Looking at Ayako Suzuki beside Akaso Kaze, he was full of envy.

A gentle and beautiful rich girl; this Onmyoji is truly lucky.

Akaso Kaze looked at the two high school detectives, one big and one small, and said with a smile: "Who said he's arriving at midnight? It should be about time now."

"The fireworks show is about to start, and Kaitou Kid should also be making his appearance."

Akaso Kaze said, looking toward the direction of the Tsutenkaku Tower; Kaitou Kid should be waiting there.

The real Memory Egg is in his space, so Akaso Kaze wasn't in a hurry.

He greeted Masato Nishino and walked into the art museum with Ayako Suzuki.

Huh?

It should be about time now?

The fireworks show is about to start, and Kaitou Kid should also be making his appearance?

What does all that mean?

Heiji Hattori and Conan were both stunned.

Looking at their watches, it was only past seven-ten, and there were still several hours until three o'clock in the morning.

"Hey, the clock now looks like 'へ'. If it's seven-twenty, it looks even more like it." Heiji Hattori muttered.

"へ?" Conan looked at Heiji's watch and was slightly stunned, then a flash of inspiration suddenly struck his brain.

He shouted with a solemn expression: "Oh no, Heiji, the time in Kid's notice isn't three o'clock in the morning, but seven-twenty!"

"What? How do you say that?" Heiji Hattori turned to look at Conan.

"You remember Kid's notice, right? The first two sentences are: From the lion of dusk to the maiden of dawn, the clock without a second hand moves to the twelfth character..."

"The 'twelfth character' in the second sentence actually refers to the twelfth character in the first sentence, which is 'へ'!"

"The time it corresponds to on a watch is seven-twenty!"

The two were suddenly stunned.

The first sentence Akaso Kaze said just now: It should be about time now?

So that's what it meant!

Did he guess the time long ago?

"Bastard, why didn't he say so if he had already thought of it?"

Heiji Hattori looked annoyed.

He had been outdone by Akaso Kaze again.
