Chapter 340

Following Michiwaki Masahiko's line of sight, Kyogoku Makoto slowly turned his head.

In the distance, a hundred meters away, directly opposite, was the room Sonoko had been in.

Kyogoku Makoto's pupils slowly contracted.

His eyesight was excellent; he could see from the room's window all the way to the high part of the tree here.

The branches along the entire route had all been broken.

This murderer had actually been knocked out of that room by someone and landed here.

How is that possible?

What kind of person could have such power?

This is simply not power that should exist in this world.

Could it be him?

Kyogoku Makoto instantly recalled the strange smile Akaso Kaze had when he left.

It carried a faint disdain, as if he could defeat him with a single punch.

Who exactly is he?

Officer Yokomizo rubbed his chin, a look of recollection appearing on his face.

"This kind of situation where a murderer commits suicide for no reason seems familiar."

"Right, isn't that strongest in Tokyo, the crime-busting Onmyoji, Lord Akaso Kaze, in Izu?" His eyes suddenly lit up.

If that were the case, it would make sense.

Such a detestable criminal, how could he escape the sanctions of the Onmyoji?

"A-ka-so-Kaze!"

A brilliant light instantly burst from Kyogoku Makoto's eyes.

It was him!

Unexpectedly, the legend was actually true.

He actually had such strength.

No wonder he showed that kind of smile when provoked to his face.

It turns out the clown was actually me.

And I was foolish enough to want to challenge him...

Kyogoku Makoto's shoulders suddenly slumped.

Defeated.

Although they hadn't fought, he was completely defeated.

Whether it was charisma or the strength he was so proud of, he had lost in everything.

The strongest Onmyoji in Tokyo, he truly lives up to his reputation!

I must go abroad to study martial arts, and when I have mastered them, I will return to settle the score with him.

"Akaso-san, I'm having dinner with my mother, can... can you come over?"

Ran's nervous voice came through the phone.

"Of course, I'll be there right away."

Hanging up the phone, Akaso Kaze's mouth curled up slightly.

Kisaki Eri, this is the first time meeting her.

Arriving at the restaurant, Mao Li Lan, wearing a white dress, was already waiting at the entrance.

"Ran looks exceptionally beautiful tonight."

Akaso Kaze stepped forward and put his arms around his girlfriend.

Mao Li Lan blushed, not resisting such intimate behavior.

Entering the restaurant, a woman was sitting at a window seat.

Wearing light makeup, her professional attire set off her perfect figure, and her black-rimmed glasses further highlighted her temperament.

Seeing Akaso Kaze beside Ran, she couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Although she had heard many rumors about this man before coming.

But hearing about him is not as good as meeting him.

This man's appearance and temperament are truly unforgettable.

"Ms. Kisaki Eri, nice to meet you for the first time."

Akaso Kaze's charming smile made Kisaki Eri's heart tremble even more.

"No need to be so formal. I always hear Ran mention you. Inviting you here this time is to see what kind of person you really are."

Kisaki Eri said to Akaso Kaze with a smile.

"Seeing Ms. Kisaki Eri, my heart is moved." Akaso Kaze smiled slightly.

"Moved?" Ran quickly turned her head to look at her boyfriend.

"Ms. Kisaki Eri is so beautiful; Ran should be just as beautiful in the future. Thinking of what Ran will look like in the future, my heart is moved."

Akaso Kaze turned his head, looking at Mao Li Lan with gentle eyes.

Mao Li Lan's pretty face flushed, and the love in her eyes was practically overflowing.

Kisaki Eri looked at Mao Li Lan's reaction and sighed in her heart.

Mao Li Lan is still too innocent, so easily attracted by a man's words.

But thinking about it, if such a handsome and charming man said the same sweet words to her, she was afraid she would find it hard to resist too.

Thinking of the days spent alone over these years, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

In the quiet restaurant.

Mao Li Lan was telling Kisaki Eri about recent events.

Kisaki Eri listened quietly, but when she heard Mao Li Lan mention Kogoro Mouri, her expression became slightly unnatural...

Akaso Kaze did not disturb their conversation, eating his dinner elegantly on the side.

Mao Li Lan had always wanted to get Kisaki Eri and Kogoro Mouri back together.

Unfortunately, that was impossible.

The two had been separated for ten years; how could they possibly reconcile?

To be honest, a strong woman like Kisaki Eri would only submit when she met an even stronger man.

With Kogoro Mouri's comedic personality, there was simply no chance.

"Ran, let's not talk about that man's affairs; today, let's talk about your affairs." Kisaki Eri interrupted Mao Li Lan.

Mao Li Lan heard this, her little face flushed slightly, and she looked at Akaso Kaze beside her.

She didn't know how to talk about her relationship with Akaso Kaze either.

"Ms. Kisaki Eri should already be very clear about my relationship with Ran, right?"

Akaso Kaze put down his knife and fork and wiped the corners of his mouth.

How could Kisaki Eri not investigate her daughter's boyfriend?

But the more she investigated, the more shocked she became.

This man's influence and strength were simply not something she, a lawyer, could compare to.

There were even more than one faction that specifically came to warn her not to investigate in secret.

Even the fragments she found on the surface made Kisaki Eri feel incredible.

She could be considered well-informed; she had even met congressmen and prime ministers.

But she had never seen such a powerful man.

He was like a high mountain in the deep sea.

Seen from the outside, it already pierced the clouds and required one to look up.

But beneath the deep sea, there was no knowing how deep or wide it went.
