Oda Sakunosuke keenly discovered that after giving him the authority of the Honmaru, Mizukami Sosuke's condition seemed to be worse.
Although he didn't need to supply spiritual energy to the dead god, he still became much more decadent. When he wasn't chatting with him, he would just sit on the edge of the bed, swinging his feet and staring blankly.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" Oda Sakunosuke asked again and again, "Don't worry about bothering me, or you should go to the hospital."
Mizukami Sosuke's eyes were a little blue, and he looked very haggard. He smiled and said, "I am not an ordinary person after all. I can't tell what I am going to the hospital for a checkup."
"So what are you worried about?"
Over the past few days, Oda Sakunosuke has thoroughly discovered that in some ways, Mizukami Sosuke is as difficult to deal with as Dazai Osamu. He usually hides his true feelings with a nonchalant and playful attitude, but he is also like a stray cat drenched in the rain, shivering all over but unable to restrain himself from looking for warmth.
Can't you be more honest?
Oda Sakunosuke thought that his personality was quite good.
Mizukami Sosuke pouted and said, "Why should I worry? If the watch is at Suzuki's house, I can just go and buy it back. If it's not there, I can just look for it slowly."
Oda Sakunosuke was sorting out his manuscripts while saying, "It's not about that. You had a fever and were delirious the night you came."
Mizukami Sosuke froze: "Ah, is that so?"
"We mentioned the Japanese tree." Oda Sakunosuke said, "If you don't want to talk about it, we can skip this topic, but I hope you still care a little about yourself."
Although Oda Sakunosuke is silent and introverted, it doesn't mean that he is not sharp enough. Even though he cannot use his real name as a censor, there is no need for Mizukami Sosuke to shout out his alias in his dream.
His name must come from a very important person, Oda Sakunosuke thought, so every time someone called him, it was as if that person also existed.
Mizukami Sosuke placed his hands on the clean sheets, smiled at Oda Sakunosuke, and said casually: "Ah, it's nothing, Kazuki... is my brother."
"Yes." Oda Sakunosuke responded.
"Later, he died. It was my fault."
“…”
Mizukami Sosuke shrugged: "It's that simple. I can hardly remember what he looks like."
You are filled with sadness, why do you pretend to be indifferent?
Oda Sakunosuke opened his mouth but did not ask any more questions: "Is that so? My condolences."
The weather today is pretty good, and the temperature has returned to summer. Mizukami Sosuke plans to accompany Oda Sakunosuke to the publishing house to submit the manuscript and buy some toiletries.
This shrine is next to Mikado, and you can quickly get to Tokyo by taking the Shinkansen. However, after thinking it over again and again, Oda Sakunosuke still chose Mikado because it is nearby.
"The weather is so hot now. It's easy to get heatstroke if you stay outside for a long time," he said.
Who told Mizukami Sosuke to be like a sickly big cat now, barely able to walk with strength? Oda Sakunosuke didn't want him to follow him at first, but someone said that he was eating and drinking for free and wanted to buy snacks from him.
Oda Sakunosuke was silent for a long while, still not understanding how a man who was almost 30 years old could be so childish.
However, the ideal of going back and forth quickly is beautiful, but the reality is very bleak. Beika-cho is not a big place, but the building types are complex, the economy is developing rapidly, and there is a Suzuki Group rooted here, so the navigation of the mobile phone map can't keep up with the changes in the store address.
The two followed the map on their phone for a long time, but finally stopped in front of a store that had closed down.
"Don't follow the navigation on your phone. Ask the people next to you." Oda Sakunosuke said helplessly, "Or you can rest here for a while. I'll go buy a bottle of water and an umbrella first."
Mizukami Sosuke casually wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve. His face was red from the scorching sun and his lips were a little pale, but he still looked exceptionally energetic.
"Isn't there a school in front? It's almost time for school to end, why don't we just go and ask?"
Seeing that Oda Sakunosuke was still hesitating, Mizukami Sosuke directly pulled the strap of his backpack containing the manuscript and led him to the door.
"Who are you asking?" Oda Sakunosuke was a little tongue-tied, which was unusual for him.
He had stayed in the shrine for too long, and it was rare for him to come out. He actually had the illusion that he was in another world.
The students, wearing the blue uniforms of Teitan High School and chatting with each other, walked out as the school bell rang. No one noticed the two people standing in the corner.
"You have made some progress in your cultivation recently. Calm down and see who has the deepest karmic affinity. Go and ask that person."
Oda Sakunosuke was puzzled: "Didn't we just go to ask for the address of the publisher?"
Why does this have to do with metaphysics?
"If you have a bit of luck, your chances of getting your manuscript accepted will be greater." Mizukami Sosuke argued.
Oda Sakunosuke: ...Okay.
He calmed down and carefully observed every person who walked by, and indeed found a clue.
The "qi" of ordinary people who have done no good or bad things is pure white, that of people with good fortune is warm gold, and that of people who have done evil things tends to be slightly black.
The brightest girl among them...
Oda Sakunosuke felt his eyes hurt after staring for a while.
"How is it?" The voice of Mizukami Sosuke suddenly sounded.
Oda Sakunosuke glanced at him subconsciously.
——Red.
A color that has never been seen on other people, as if some emotions are surging in it, with black lines, wrapping up Mizukami Sosuke's entire body.
A shadow approached, and Oda Sakunosuke closed his eyes unconsciously.
When he opened his eyes again, it turned out to be Mizukami Sosuke who waved his hand in front of him with a puzzled look on his face: "How does it feel to open your psychic vision? Did you see any monsters or anything?"
Oda Sakunosuke shook his head and said calmly: "No, I just saw a different light in each person."
"Then go ahead and ask."
Standing at the gate of Teitan High School, Mao Lilan took out her mobile phone from time to time to check the time, muttering: "Sonoko, how can it take so long to go back and get something?"
She leaned over and said to Conan Edogawa who was standing next to her on his cell phone, "Conan, please wait a moment. I'll call Sonoko first."
Conan Edogawa nodded mechanically, his eyes focused on the phone, obviously not hearing what she said.
"Conan, what are you looking at?" Mao Lilan suddenly squatted down and asked suspiciously, "You are not chatting with your girlfriend. Did you hear what I just said?"
Conan Edogawa was so frightened that his hands shook and his phone almost flew out. He smiled awkwardly and said, "No, no, Xiaolan, I was discussing with Genta and the others whether we should go on a picnic with Professor Agasa this weekend."
"Well, don't stare at your phone all the time, or it will easily worsen your myopia."
Mao Lilan stood up and made a phone call.
Conan Edogawa stared at the message sent by Haibara Ai on his phone and fell into deep thought.
He had always been on guard against this person of the same age as himself, who was a drug researcher from the Black Organization, even though he was cooperating with him.
It was only after they had been together for a long time that Conan Edogawa slowly accepted Haibara Ai and began to cooperate with her on drugs and organizations.
Not long ago, he asked Haibara Ai about the information of "Suzumiya Kazuki", but Haibara Ai said that she had never heard of this name. She only knew that the codename of the person who went with her to check on Kudo Shinichi was "Chivas", and he had a bad personality and could be called an explosion maniac.
This made Conan Edogawa think that he had misunderstood what Suzumiya Kazuki meant.
only--
[I asked someone to check the news. It seems that Chivas died unexpectedly last month, but I don’t know whether the specific information is true or not. Someone told me that Bourbon went to the scene to check it out personally.] — Huihara Ai.
Bourbon...
Conan Edogawa sent a message asking: [What is the relationship between Bourbon and Chivas?]
Huiyuan Ai replied immediately: [You asked me about a researcher, but Chivas has also participated in drug research. There were a few times when Bourbon asked him to go on a mission. I saw that both of them had very ugly expressions. I guess they don’t have a good relationship.]
Since the relationship is not good, it means that Bourbon will not let this matter go...
Conan Edogawa's face became worse and worse.
Recalling the hot spring hotel incident, the water police officer who claimed to be Suzumiya Kazuki's brother suddenly handed in his resignation letter and went back to his room without going out. Edogawa Conan felt that the two things might be related.
Did he give up being a police officer and continue looking for clues because he learned about Ryomiya Kazuki's death?
But how did he know about the Black Organization?
"Ran, Conan!" Suzuki Sonoko rushed out of the campus carrying her schoolbag, stopped in front of them, and said excitedly, "I'm here to get Kid-sama's autograph. I have a feeling he will come to my exhibition this time!"
"Sister Sonoko, what are you going to exhibit this time?" Conan put the phone back in his pocket and raised his head to ask.
Suzuki Sonoko said casually, "It's a pocket watch of exceptional quality and fine workmanship. It's shiny purple and has the letters 'WK' engraved on it. But my father said that it might have been engraved by the original owner, so its aesthetics have been reduced a lot and it's not very collectible. I can sell it again after the exhibition."
Mao Lilan was a little worried: "I heard outsiders say that this is an unknown gem."
Suzuki Sonoko shook her head and said nonchalantly, "It will be sold after the exhibition anyway, so the most I'll lose is a few million."
"WK..." Conan Edogawa chewed on these two letters subconsciously, "The gem murder case in the hot spring hotel, the involvement of Officer Mizukami Tetsuya... Kazuki"
A flash of white light flashed in his mind, as if he had suddenly realized something.
If the gemstones on display at Suzuki Sonoko's house happened to belong to the late Ryomiya Kazuki, then it would explain why Mizukami Tetsu resolutely chose to resign and shut himself in after his experience at the hot spring hotel!
Damn it, he was still one step too late!
"Well, I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation. Could you please tell me where the newspaper submission agency in Beika Town is located?" A calm and steady voice sounded in the ears of the three people.
The man nervously pulled the black backpack and said solemnly, "I am a novelist who wants to submit a work, but the address on the map on my phone doesn't seem to match the actual address."
Mao Lilan blinked and smiled, "Are you looking for Beihua Publishing House? It just moved to Liyuan Street not long ago. If I remember correctly, the house number is 358."
"Sir, are you a novelist? That's amazing!" Suzuki Sonoko said excitedly, "If it's published, please allow me to read it."
Oda Sakunosuke breathed a sigh of relief and said a little embarrassedly, "I was just writing and I am not sure about my level. I cannot deserve such high praise from you. It was my friend who encouraged me to submit my work."
"That's great." Mao Lilan smiled, "You will definitely succeed."
"Thank you for your good wishes." After receiving the blessing from such a golden and lucky person, Oda Sakunosuke inexplicably felt a lot more at ease.
He thanked and said goodbye to the three people again, turned around, waved to Ryomiya and Shu, who were standing in the shade and had bought a popsicle at some point, and walked towards him.
Mao Lilan held Suzuki Sonoko's arm with one hand, and with the other hand she slightly lowered to hold Edogawa Conan and said: "Dad said he won't be home for dinner today, Sonoko, do you want to go eat ramen with us?"
"Okay, okay, let me call the butler and ask him to cancel the beef meal that was airlifted from Milan tonight."
Conan Edogawa turned his head thoughtfully and looked in the direction where Oda Sakunosuke left, and saw him taking the popsicle from another person.
That person...
Wait!
Conan Edogawa's face changed drastically, and he quickly broke free from Mouri Ran's hand and rushed over.
"Why don't you go buy some ice cream? If you have a fever, it's better to eat less." Oda Sakunosuke took the ice cream and said subconsciously to Mizukami Sosuke.
"Suzumiya Kazuki, how come you are still alive!"
Suddenly, a breathless and pleading voice came from the side, and the two of them subconsciously lowered their heads to look towards the source of the sound.
Mizukami Sosuke tilted his head, a little confused: "I remember you, the boy from the Kudo family. Why can't I live?"
