Chapter 187

"So the prince, who could no longer bear it, fired a shot at Rasputin, hitting his lung lobe and knocking Rasputin to the ground."

"Just when everyone thought the demon monk was dead, Rasputin suddenly came back to life, grabbed the prince's throat, threatened to hang everyone, and then broke free from the crowd and fled to the courtyard."

"In the courtyard, Rasputin was shot three more times, one of which hit his head."

"But do you think it's over?"

Secretary Nishino paused and said: "Everyone thought that Rasputin never took a bath because bathing would weaken his magic power, so they decided to throw Rasputin's body into the icy river."

"The body was discovered the next day, but the forensic autopsy believed that Rasputin drowned because his lungs were full of water he had choked on. Rasputin survived underwater for at least 8 minutes before he died completely."

The story of the Russian demon monk Rasputin was finally finished, and Suzuki Sonoko, who was fascinated, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Does this Rasputin really have divine power?" Suzuki Sonoko asked.

Before Secretary Nishino could answer, Conan spoke up again: "Divine power is impossible. In this world, only science is the only truth."

"The so-called prophetic power is actually just sawing the chain on the chandelier in advance, and you can make the so-called prophecy."

"And not dying from eating potassium cyanide should be because the potassium cyanide production technology at that time was not developed, resulting in the poison being too inferior, so it couldn't kill people."

"Why don't you let him try the current potassium cyanide and try again?"

"As for being shot by a pistol and not dying, it should be that he didn't hit him at all, or the power of the bullet at that time was too small, so it couldn't cause fatal injuries."

"And there is hemophilia. Didn't he also not completely cure this disease? Maybe he just seduced the young Crown Prince and made some agreement with the Crown Prince to pretend to be sick..."

"In short, divine power absolutely does not exist. The truth behind these miracles must be very ordinary."

"You must believe in science!"

Conan's series of statements tried hard to deny that Rasputin possessed divine power.

Akaso Kaze frowned slightly.

How do these abilities of Rasputin look a bit like a magician?

In the case of hemophilia, it is easy to coagulate blood vessels with a hand of intent.

As for predictions and the like, they are typical performances of prediction magic.

As for not dying from poisoning or being shot, it is even more of a piece of cake.

However, his ability should be far worse than a real magician, otherwise he wouldn't have been handled by a few ordinary people.

As for how taking a bath can reduce magic power?

I have never heard of this.

Akaso Kaze certainly didn't need to popularize this knowledge to the people at the tea party, letting Conan continue to promote the theory of believing in science.

At this time, Pisco suddenly asked thoughtfully: "These abilities of Rasputin seem to be something Akaso-sama can also do, right?"

Everyone's eyes looked over instantly.

Many people who were not familiar with Akaso Kaze showed suspicion in their eyes.

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly. "These abilities of Rasputin are just small tricks."

"If he was really that capable, how could he not foresee his own life and death?"

Everyone nodded in realization.

Yes, even danger cannot be avoided; such a divine monk is too weak.

Pisco asked with flashing eyes: "Then can Akaso-sama do it?"

"Of course." Akaso Kaze smiled.

He looked at them one by one, and everyone who made eye contact with him looked away involuntarily.

Akaso Kaze finally saw Samukawa Ryu.

This guy was still holding a camera to take pictures of Akaso Kaze.

Akaso Kaze curled his lips slightly and said faintly: "Among you, someone will soon lose their life because he has a bad habit."

"What?"

Everyone present was stunned.

Those who were not familiar with Akaso Kaze were fine.

Those who were familiar with him, or who had learned about him through certain channels, all widened their eyes, showing a terrifying expression.

If Onmyoji-sama says someone will die, then eight out of ten times someone will lose their life.

After such a thing happened, many people couldn't stay any longer.

One by one, they nervously said goodbye, returned to their rooms, and locked their doors tightly.

Suzuki Sonoko hurriedly approached Akaso Kaze and held his arm: "Akaso-san..."

The girl who was usually carefree was also scared.

Akaso Kaze pinched her small face and comforted her with a smile: "Sonoko, don't worry, you are my girl, how could I let anything happen to you?"

Suzuki Sonoko was a little shy and ran away blushing.

Returning to his residence, Sawabe Kuranosuke immediately went to find Kousaka Natsumi.

"Young lady, the most dangerous person on this ship is you."

"What can be confirmed now is that there are two Eggs of Memories. One is in Akaso-sama's hands, and the other is in your castle."

"No one can afford to provoke Akaso-sama, but you are different. I am already old and can't protect you at all. If someone has bad intentions..."

Kousaka Natsumi was trembling all over by the butler's words.

"Mr. Sawabe, what should I do?"

Sawabe Kuranosuke said: "The safest place on this ship is Akaso Kaze-sama's room. You go there now, make an excuse to ask about the Egg of Memories, and stay inside... it's best to wait until tomorrow."

"Ah? I... he..." Kousaka Natsumi's face turned red instantly, and she didn't know what to say, stuttering.

"Young lady, at this time, what are you still caring about? Even if you don't care about your own life, don't you want to fulfill your grandmother's last wish?"

Kousaka Natsumi thought about it with a blushing face and finally nodded gently.

Watching her leaving back, Sawabe Kuranosuke narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Young lady, I'm doing this for your own good."

"Natsumi-san? Why are you here?"

Akaso Kaze looked at the beautiful girl.

"Akaso-sama, I, I am a little scared, can I stay here for a while?"

Kousaka Natsumi didn't know how to lie, especially when she saw Akaso Kaze, under his burning gaze, she couldn't say any lies.

Akaso Kaze curled his lips and let her into the room.

"Is Natsumi-san a little scared?"

Closing the door, Akaso Kaze said: "Don't worry, the one I said would have an accident today is not you."

Kousaka Natsumi exhaled a fragrant breath and patted her high chest.

"But Mr. Sawabe said that someone would threaten my safety because of the Egg of Memories that might be hidden in the castle."

Akaso Kaze nodded.

The Egg of Memories in his hand was worth 800 million, and the gems on it had long been lost.

The one Kousaka Natsumi kept was more complete, and its value would definitely be higher, and it was expected to exceed 1 billion.

A pure and kind girl like Kousaka Natsumi possessing such an expensive thing could only make her a target for those big thieves or people with ulterior motives.

"Mr. Sawabe is right, Natsumi-san, this is also the reason why I didn't return the Egg of Memories to you."

"That's not helping you, but harming you."

Although Kousaka Natsumi had a simple mind, she was not a fool, and of course, she could understand what Akaso Kaze meant.

"Then, what should I do? Should I cancel this castle trip?"

She looked at Akaso Kaze pitifully.

"It's too late now."

Akaso Kaze smoothed the hair by her ear.

"Everyone knows that the more precious Egg of Memories is hidden in the castle. Even if you don't take people in, they will try their best to steal it."

"Then, what should I do~"

Kousaka Natsumi's thin body was trembling with fear, and she leaned toward Akaso Kaze unconsciously.

Akaso Kaze reached out and held her in his arms.

The warm embrace made Kousaka Natsumi feel much safer.

Her body was pressed against Akaso Kaze, she raised her small head, blinked her big eyes, and begged: "Akaso-sama, can you help me?"

Kousaka Natsumi's small expression was pitiful.

Akaso Kaze looked at her, but had a feeling of wanting to bully her severely.

Oh my, I'm really too bad.

Akaso Kaze thought so, then held Kousaka Natsumi's small waist with both hands, picked her up, and walked toward the inside.

"Aka, Akaso-sama, you, what are you doing?"

Kousaka Natsumi's body trembled even more violently.

Two small hands tightly grasped Akaso Kaze's clothes, and two long legs jumped up nervously.
