Chapter 84: About the encounter with the little friend of Death~
Rice flower town.
Saturday afternoon at three o'clock.
In front of a slightly dilapidated kendo hall, above the gate, the sign "Suwa Kendo Hall" looks a bit old, and it has obviously not been replaced for a while.
Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi, and Takeda Nobuyoshi stood at the door. Shu Yunwen looked back and forth: "Well... the operating conditions of this kendo gym seem to be really unsatisfactory."
Takeda nodded: "I heard from the people below that Mr. Suwa Yuuji seemed to have borrowed money from Maru Denjiro with Kikuchiyo as collateral just to be able to continue running the kendo gym. Well...according to us
According to the investigation, Suwa Yuji went to Osaka yesterday, seemingly to borrow money from his good friend. The purpose was to redeem Kikuchiyo from Maru Denjiro..."
"That's it."
Shu Yunwen responded, and then walked into the kendo hall with Tsukamoto Sumi and Takeda Nobu.
There is a reception desk at the entrance of the kendo hall. The receptionist is a girl wearing kendo costumes. She smiles and asks: "Hello everyone, is there anything I can help you with?"
Shu Yunwen smiled slightly: "Hello. We called before and wanted to visit the director of your museum, Mr. Yuji Suwa..."
The girl was surprised, looked at the box held by Tsukamoto Sumi, and then said: "The three of them should be Mr. Takeda, Mr. Shu, and Ms. Tsukamoto, right? Director Suwa has returned and is now in the quiet room.
Meditate inside and wait for the arrival of the three of you."
While talking, the girl walked out of the reception area and made a "please" gesture: "You three, please go this way."
Just inside the reception area is a large classroom for practicing kendo.
Today is Saturday, so some students are holding wooden swords and doing simple exercises with each other.
Passing through the large kendo classroom is the backyard of the kendo hall. Walking through the corridor, the girl led the three of them to a room, stretched out her hand and knocked on the door gently: "Hello, director, we have an appointment with the three of you who are coming to visit today.
A guest has arrived."
"Please come in." A deep voice came from the room.
The girl opened the door. Inside the quiet room, a man wearing kendo uniform and kneeling on the ground stood up and walked towards the door. At the same time, he ordered: "Meiya, please help prepare some tea, thank you."
"Hai!" The girl Meiyi bent down and responded, leaving to go.
"Three guests, please come in and sit down." Yuji Suwa invited.
Shu Yunwen and the other two nodded: "I really caused trouble to you."
At the same time, Shu Yunwen took a few glances at Suwa Yuji and determined that this man should be a very powerful swordsman.
No wonder he dared to keep a half-finished witchcraft weapon like Kikuchiyo.
After entering the room and sitting down, Suwa Yuuji did not ask Shu Yunwen their identities. He stared at the sword box in Tsukamoto Sumi's arms with a pair of squinted eyes with a vicious look, and suddenly asked: "What's in this box is us."
The Suwa family’s famous sword, Kikuchiyo?”
Shu Yunwen smiled and took the sword box from Tsukamoto Sumi's hand, opened the box and revealed Kikuchiyo inside: "Yes, this should be the ancestral sword in your family."
Suwa Yuuji gave a low "Yeah" and gritted his teeth and said: "That guy Denjiro is really not worthy of belief... I have obviously agreed with him to repay the loan today, and I have also collected the money, but he actually, actually...
…”
As he spoke, Suwa Yuji's body was trembling, as if he was restraining something.
After a pause, Suwa Yuuji knelt down and saluted Shu Yunwen: "Sir, could you please transfer Kikuchiyo to me again? If you have any request, I will definitely do it. No matter it is money.
, is it a thing, or something else..."
Shu Yunwen grabbed Kikuchiyo with one hand and placed it firmly in front of Suwa Yuuji: "Kikuchiyo is of extremely important significance to you, but to me, it is just an antique for others to appreciate.
It's just a knife. If you wish, I can return Kikuchiyo to you, but I have some questions, please answer them seriously."
Suwa Yuuji sat up, his eyes full of joy: "Thank you very much. I was rude before and didn't ask for your name."
"My name is Shu Yunwen, and I am an exorcist; these two are my friends, Tsukamoto Sumi and Takeda Trust." Shu Yunwen introduced the people next to him, and then asked directly: "Mr. Suwa, I heard that your
My ancestor was a soldier who was keen on killing people on the battlefield. I would like to ask, apart from this Kikuchiyo, did your ancestor leave anything else to you? Well, as long as it is from the same period, it will be included."
"Are you talking about my ancestors?" Suwa Yuuji was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "There are still some things. However, those should be just ordinary things. The only ones solemnly passed down by my ancestors are
It’s just Kikuchiyo.”
There really is something passed down!
Shu Yunwen's eyes lit up and he immediately said: "Excuse me, Mr. Suwa, can I take a look at those things?"
"Of course." Suwa Yuji nodded, "Those things are placed in a showroom in the Kendo Hall. If you want to see them, you can always see them."
"Sorry to trouble you, I want to take a look now." Shu Yunwen said quickly.
When Suwa Yuuji heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up, still holding Kikuchiyo in his hand: "If you want to see it now, please come with me."
Suwa Yuuji opened the door of the quiet room, led Shu Yunwen and the others to an independent room, reached out and opened the door, and turned on the light.
In the room, there are some glass cabinets and shelves, and there are many items that can be seen from a certain age at a glance.
Suwa Yuuji walked into the room first, placed the Kikuchiyo in his hand in front of the old samurai armor stand facing the door, and briefly introduced: "This samurai armor is also an ancestral item from my ancestors. However,
, I have an antique, let’s take a closer look at it, it seems to be just an ordinary pair of armor.”
Shu Yunwen nodded, then used [Ghost Eye] and glanced back and forth in the showroom: "That's right. This armor is indeed just a very ordinary armor..."
While talking, Shu Yunwen was also observing everything in the room carefully, and finally his eyes fell on a piece of wood and couldn't move away.
Judging from the wood, this piece of wood should be just ordinary peach wood. There is a strange eye carved on it, which seems to have a strange and fascinating power.
In Shu Yunwen's eyes, this small piece of peach wood contains a lot of yin and ghost energy. There is a round hole in the small peach wood, which should have been tied by something. Now, that thing is gone, and the small peach wood has a round hole.
The yin energy and ghost energy seemed to be missing a piece——
This is a witchcraft! A broken entry-level witchcraft!
Moreover, judging from the weird eye, this should be a witchcraft with slight psychic ability. As for the effect, it is probably equivalent to a witchcraft with a constant version of [Ghost Eyes].
However, no matter how weak it is, it is still a magic weapon.
"Mr. Suwa, please tell me, this piece of peach wood is..." Shu Yunwen reached out and picked up a small piece of peach wood.
Suwa Yuji walked over and said in surprise: "Are you talking about this? This seems to be the amulet worn by my ancestors. It is said that this is an amulet with the power of a powerful evil god..."
Evil god?
Shu Yunwen twitched the corner of his mouth twice and asked: "This amulet should have a binding chain, right? Where is that chain now?"
"Chain?" Suwa Yuuji was stunned for a moment, "I remembered that a few months ago, the chain of the bag I carried Kikuchiyo broke, so I took off the bead chain from the amulet and tied it to
On the bag containing Kikuchiyo, when I took Kikuchiyo to borrow money from Marudenjiro before, I sent it with the bag as well."
"Mr. Takeda, did Kikuchiyo bring a bag when he came back from the purchase?" Shu Yunwen turned around and asked.
Takeda immediately shook his head: "No."
"So, that bag is still at Maru Denjiro's place..." Shu Yunwen narrowed his eyes, "Thank you, Mr. Suwa, can you give me this amulet?"
"Of course." Suwa Yuji nodded.
"Thank you very much. Then just think that I was replaced by Kikuchiyo."
Shu Yunwen bent down, said goodbye and left the kendo hall. After getting in the car, he immediately asked the driver to drive to Maru Denjiro's place.
There was a bit of traffic jam on the road. After more than an hour, the car arrived at Marudenjiro's house.
The group of people entered the yard and walked through the corridor covered with bushes on both sides. Shu Yunwen turned his head casually, followed the gap between the bushes, and was stunned for a moment after seeing the two people by the pond in the yard.
——
Xiaolan?Conan?
Why are these two guys here?
"Classmate Maori, friend Edogawa?" Shu Yunwen shouted in surprise.
Xiaolan was boringly playing with the fish in the pond, and Conan turned his head at the same time. When he saw Shu Yunwen, they were also stunned for a moment.
"Classmate Shu? Why are you here?" Xiaolan asked with a smile.
As for Conan, he looked Shu Yunwen up and down and said, "Hello, brother Yunwen."
Doesn’t this guy really have the face of an uncle anymore? Damn it! This face is actually more handsome than him!
Shu Yunwen nodded: "I came to see Mr. Maru Denjiro for something..."
However, before he finished speaking, Shu Yunwen suddenly stopped——
Wait! This guy Conan has the aura of death! Since he appears here, doesn't that mean...
Shu Yunwen immediately opened the [Yin Yang Eyes] and looked back and forth. Sure enough, in a room, he saw some Yin Qi and ghost Qi coming out.
What the hell!
Sure enough, he is really dead again!
"Brother Yunwen, what are you looking at?" Conan asked curiously.
Shu Yunwen chuckled: "It's nothing...well, I just want to ask you, little Conan, do you feel it?"
"Feel? What?" Conan didn't know why.
Shu Yunwen's mouth twitched and he continued:
"It smells like a case~! I felt it as soon as I came in. Someone died in that room!"
ps: Officially introduce the case, guess who the deceased is~~
