Chapter 379: The desperate girl in gothic attire

~9 min read 1,702 words

"In that case, who is the real murderer?" Hiroshige looked at Akaso Kaze, trembling, his eyes bloodshot.

"Of course, it’s the person Detective Mouri pointed out first." Akaso Kaze turned to look at Minako Akiyoshi.

"What? This, this is impossible!" Conan was stunned.

Facing Akaso Kaze, Minako Akiyoshi was not like she was facing Kogoro Mouri.

Her face was full of despair.

Akaso Kaze continued: "For the twenty minutes Hiroshige used as an alibi, Minako Akiyoshi also used this time. Living on the 5th floor, she was able to enter room 604 one step ahead, knock out Madam President Kijie, and then dress up as Madam President Kijie to be murdered. The fake blood plasma wiped off the floor is proof."

"I really mistook the person?" Hiroshige Kusaka asked, unable to believe it.

"Madam President Kijie’s hands and legs exposed outside were very well maintained, about the same as Minako Akiyoshi’s. The only face that could have given it away was deliberately covered with a towel. Plus, you were very panicked at the time, so you were deceived."

"Why did she do this?" Hiroshige Kusaka asked.

"Of course, it’s because she didn't trust you, guy. You didn't even notice President Yashiro was faking unconsciousness and were almost thrown into the sea by someone else. Your ability is really weak."

Minako Akiyoshi said resignedly.

"I am the daughter of the captain who was murdered 15 years ago. Hiroshige contacting me, the designer, besides designing an alibi, should also have been wanting to extract information about this ship."

"I peeked at his computer and learned the truth of the matter, and his actions were completely under my control. It’s just a pity, I didn't expect Lord Akaso would also get on this ship. When I saw you, I thought of this result."

Several culprits were all taken away by the police, and even the captain was taken away.

After all, with a prior record of bombing a ship, no one dared to let him command the voyage.

"The shipwreck accident of the Yashiro merchant ship fifteen years ago has been brought to light following the recent Aphrodite incident. Captain Wataru Kaitou confessed that he was instructed by the Yashiro father and daughter who were murdered this time."

"Lord Onmyoji cracked the Aphrodite incident and saved all the passengers on the ship!"

Looking at the newspaper in front of him, the corners of Akaso Kaze’s mouth curled up slightly.

It had already been a few days since that incident.

Akaso Kaze was strolling on Harajuku Street.

There were many strange costumes on Harajuku Street; it was a place where trends and trendy culture were concentrated, known as the street of young people.

Akaso Kaze generally didn't come here much. It wasn't that his mindset was old, but that the current trends and fashions in Tokyo were not fresh at all in his eyes.

Without a sense of freshness, so-called trends couldn't compare to everyday clothing; at least everyday clothing was pleasing to the eye.

Akaso Kaze glanced sideways at a young woman who passed by with a wide-open chest.

The weather hadn't warmed up yet, and these people weren't afraid of the cold.

At this moment, a girl wearing British Victorian court-style clothing, that is, gothic attire, walked over in a daze.

Her makeup was very heavy, with long eyelashes, black lipstick, the whole thing was a black style, and she also had twin tails like a lolita, looking very cute.

Only her expression was very bad.

Akaso Kaze stopped his steps.

Sure enough, as he expected, the girl bumped into his chest.

"S-sorry." The girl apologized hurriedly.

Then, she suddenly froze.

She asked with glowing eyes: "Are, are you Lord Akaso?"

Akaso Kaze nodded.

The girl’s eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

"Sorry, I’m too excited. To be able to meet you, I’m really so lucky."

"Can I treat you to a drink?"

Akaso Kaze nodded; anyway, he had nothing to do today.

The two walked into a coffee shop.

The girl said: "Lord Akaso, I’ve encountered some things. Can you give me some advice?"

"Right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yuka Shodo."

Yuka Shodo?

Akaso Kaze was startled. No wonder she looked very familiar; this was actually a case.

Akaso Kaze didn't say anything and listened to Yuka Shodo start to tell her story.

"I have a best friend who has a very strong possessiveness. My work, my friends, have all been snatched away by her, and my boyfriend also left me. As long as I have something, she will snatch it away from me. Lord Akaso, I really can't take it anymore. Can you tell me what I should do?"

Looking at the girl’s somewhat desperate eyes, Akaso Kaze said: "If I’m not mistaken, you are going to kill her today."

Yuka Shodo was shocked when she heard this and stammered: "Lord Akaso, h-how did you know?"

Akaso Kaze smiled, "Did you forget? I am the nemesis of evil."

Yuka Shodo lowered her head and waited for a long while before saying with teary eyes: "You are right, I have already planned it. She is wearing the same clothes as me today and has the same attire. I have already scouted the environment and chose a coffee shop around a park."

"I will kill her in the park restroom, then impersonate her to go to the coffee shop, leave after a few minutes, change into my own clothes, and go back in to create an alibi."

She covered her face and cried *wuu wuu*.

Akaso Kaze thought for a moment and said: "I can help you. Do you want to leave her, or punish her?"

Yuka Shodo’s eyes widened in surprise.

"Lord Akaso, you, are you willing to help me?"

Akaso Kaze nodded. He didn't mind giving such a hardworking girl some help to keep her from going down the wrong path.

"I can give you a new job and even annoy her right in front of your face. However, I won't help for nothing, you know."

The corners of his mouth curled up, and he smiled.

In the coffee shop, Hiro Kuze, who was waiting, looked out the window boredly.

Suddenly, her eyes widened in surprise.

Her best friend, Yuka Shodo, got out of a luxury car, and a very handsome man hugged her and kissed her.

Looking at her best friend’s happy expression, Hiro Kuze instantly felt jealous.

She considered herself beautiful, but she had a bad temper, and no one wanted to be her friend, so she could only hold tightly onto Yuka Shodo, her only best friend.

Watching Yuka Shodo walk into the coffee shop, Hiro Kuze immediately changed her expression and revealed a pure smile.

"Yuka, who was that?" she asked as if casually.

Yuka Shodo looked around and said quietly: "That is the famous Onmyoji in Tokyo, Lord Akaso."

"What? Lord Akaso?!"

Hiro Kuze’s jaw dropped.

"You, how do you know him?"

Yuka Shodo said: "Lord Akaso said I look very cute in this outfit and invited me to work for him."

"What? Invited you to work?" Hiro Kuze’s face changed.

"Yes, he invited me to go to the hotel room across the street later to discuss the details. Oh my, I don't know what will happen..."

Yuka Shodo held a hotel room card and said with a look of longing.

"Isn't that too fast..."

Hiro Kuze was very jealous in her heart.

Yuka Shodo said: "What’s wrong with it being too fast? As long as I have Lord Akaso’s help, my future life will definitely be very happy. Oh my, I won't say anymore, Lord Akaso is still waiting for me. I’ll go to the restroom first and have to go later."

Yuka Shodo twisted her little butt and went to the park restroom. Hiro Kuze felt a move in her heart when she saw the bag she left behind.

The two of them were wearing the same clothes today. If she impersonated Yuka Shodo and went over to ruin her good thing, she wouldn't be able to leave her.

The park restroom wasn't close, at least half an hour away; that was enough time.

Hiro Kuze took the other person’s room card and walked quickly toward the hotel.

Arriving at the luxury suite on the top floor, Hiro Kuze took a deep breath.

"Just refuse him when I go in, then hurry back. Yuka Shodo won't discover anything."

She rang the doorbell.

The door opened, and a very handsome face appeared in front of her.

Hiro Kuze was instantly stunned.

"A-Akaso-sama, you, you are really so handsome!"

Hiro Kuze was dumbfounded.

Akaso Kaze asked with a smile: "Yuka Shodo, you’re here?"

Hiro Kuze woke up suddenly, and the words she wanted to use to refuse couldn't come out.

She lowered her head and walked into the room, saying timidly: "Lord Akaso, what, what do you want me to do?"

Akaso Kaze was stunned.

Could it be that this girl wanted to impersonate Yuka Shodo and do something with him?

This was different from what he thought.

Akaso Kaze decided to follow the script.

He took out a contract and said: "This is the job I’m giving you. Take a look. If it’s okay, come to work tomorrow..."

Hiro Kuze pursed her lips and looked at it, wanting to refuse immediately and leave right away.

But she couldn't bear to lose such an opportunity.

She walked over slowly and sat on Akaso Kaze’s lap.

"Lord Akaso, you are helping me like this, I, I want to repay you."

Akaso Kaze was stunned. This girl is so proactive?

She must be craving my body.

He used his Eye of Space to look and saw that Yuka Shodo had already arrived.

*Ding-dong.*

The doorbell rang.

Akaso Kaze got up and opened the door, pretending to be surprised as he looked at the two people.

"Which one of you is Yuka Shodo?"

After confirming their identities, Akaso Kaze held Yuka Shodo and said to Hiro Kuze: "Sorry, the girl I’m interested in is this one."

Yuka Shodo looked at Hiro Kuze, who was full of envy and jealousy, and felt very relieved in her heart.
