Chapter 88

"We just received a report from some children saying they saw a corpse in that house."

"Inspector Megure brought us here to investigate, but we haven't found the corpse yet. It's very likely a prank by the children, and we were planning to pack up and go back."

Akaso Kaze raised an eyebrow.

Inspector Megure, isn't that the gold-medal extra of this world?

With him responding to the call, could those kids who found the corpse be the Detective Boys?

Just as he was thinking, the chubby extra walked out, and sure enough, Conan, Ayumi, and the other four kids were following behind.

Inspector Megure walked with a stern face, lecturing: "Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that you helped catch the Italian robbers last time, I wouldn't have been stupid enough to believe you this time."

He looked up and saw Akaso Kaze, immediately showing a smile: "Akaso-san, out walking the cats again?"

Akaso Kaze nodded and looked at Conan, asking: "What's wrong? Is Conan giving you trouble again?"

"These brats just love pranks. They said they saw a corpse, but we searched the whole yard. Except for the two brothers who own the house, there's no one else, let alone a corpse."

"It must be a prank by these brats."

Conan quickly argued loudly: "Inspector, we really didn't lie to you! We really saw a corpse!"

Akaso Kaze looked at the two of them.

According to the rules of this world, what Conan said was likely true, and with Inspector Megure as a negative example, it was almost certain that a murder had occurred.

Nameless brothers... a missing corpse...

Akaso Kaze, who had a good memory, immediately recalled it.

So it was that case.

He cast the Eye of Space and took a turn around the room, and sure enough, he found the corpse.

He also found where the soul was.

This guy was actually clinging to such a long thing.

"Wait, Inspector Megure, let me, this Onmyoji, help you calculate it for free. If there really is a murder, that would be an achievement for you."

Inspector Megure was stunned and said: "Is that really okay? Then I'll trouble you, Akaso-san."

If anyone else said that, he definitely wouldn't listen.

But Akaso Kaze was different.

Inspector Megure knew clearly that this Onmyoji had real skills and was very powerful; a single talisman could sell for tens of millions.

Last time, when handling the Maru Denjiro case, he had heard that Akaso Kaze had long seen that Maru Denjiro's time was short and wanted to sell him a life-saving talisman for 20 million.

Who knew Maru Denjiro was stingy and didn't want to buy it? Sure enough, he died a few days later, and was slashed many times, dying a miserable death.

Once this news spread, many dignitaries came to Akaso Kaze to buy talismans, and they wouldn't even haggle over the 20 million price tag.

Now that Akaso Kaze was taking the initiative to help him divine, could there really be a case here?

Inspector Megure's expression immediately became serious.

Akaso Kaze made a few solemn, pretentious hand gestures that he didn't even know the meaning of himself.

Then he raised an eyebrow, showed a cold sneer, and pointed to the window next to the big tree.

"Conan is right, the corpse is in that room, sitting on the chair in front of the TV."

"What?" Inspector Megure frowned.

"We entered that room at the time; there wasn't much furniture, only the owner's older brother sitting on the chair..."

"I know now!"

Conan suddenly shouted excitedly, "So that's how it is, I've already understood the criminal's trick."

He didn't have time to explain, turned his head, and rushed into the house.
