A Sorcerer in the Detective World

"That's right! It's her!"

Miike Naeko looked at the sketch and nodded in surprise: "Mr. Manaka, your drawing is great! Except for the cheeks being a little fatter, they are exactly the same!"

"Really? That's good." Manaka Daijiro smiled slightly and seemed relieved.

Miike Naeko looked at the portrait carefully again, then raised her head with some confusion and asked: "By the way, Mr. Manaka, I would like to ask you, you said before that you asked me to draw ghost cars to inspire your creation, right? But...why do I feel like you came to me specifically to ask about this female ghost? Most of what you asked me just now was about her, and you even specifically drew her appearance..."

"Uh..." Manaka Daijiro froze, and then explained, "What...the reason why I focused on asking the female ghost and even drew her is because I like the material of 'female ghost' very much, and I think this is more interesting. It inspires me to create – is there a problem with that?”

"Well... of course not." Miike Naozi shook her head quickly, and then said:

"Speaking of which, if you like 'female ghosts' very much, I might be able to provide you with some material. In fact, I have seen another 'female ghost' before, and she was the same as the 'female ghost' you drew. Ghost' together..."

"W-what?" Manaka Daijiro was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up and said, "Sorry, Miss Miike, I want to go to the bathroom, can you wait for me?"

"Well, of course."

Miike Naeko nodded, Manaka Daijiro apologized again and walked quickly towards the bathroom of the cafe.

About five or six minutes later, Manaka Daijiro returned to his seat, picked up the brush and looked at Miike Naeko:

"Miss Miike, could you please tell me more about the other 'female ghost'?"

…

At 5:50 in the afternoon, it was dark.

On the 21st floor of the apartment, in the Kamawa house, inside the bedroom of Mr. Kamikawa and his wife.

Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi and others stood in front of the wardrobe. Shu Yunwen held a pair of pliers in his hand, clamped a slight protrusion on the wood inside the wardrobe, and pulled it out with all his strength.

Tsukamoto's beautiful face was almost next to Shu Yunwen's face, staring into the closet and asked: "Yunwen-kun, have you pulled out that thing?"

"Well, I pulled it out." Shu Yunwen put the pliers back in front of his eyes, looked at the tiny bone needle clamped by the pliers, and said, "...This is the last bone needle! The murderer is really, this There are seven bone needles, each one more hidden than the last, making it really troublesome to find..."

Shu Yunwen's way of finding the Seven Soul Soul-fixing Needles was simply to ask Cheng Shi and Mingmei to help search, or to judge by the concentration distribution of Yin Qi, ghost Qi, and evil Qi in the room——

However, because the Pu Chuan family "raises ghosts", the Yin Qi, ghost Qi, and evil Qi in each location are not much different, and Shu Yunwen's does not have much effect.

As for Chengshi and Mingmei?

The two of them were really helpful. They basically found all seven needles, but they struggled for almost half an hour to find these seven needles! Because these seven soul-fixing needles are not only small, but also scattered and hidden throughout the room, it is difficult to find them. Even Cheng Shi and Mingmei searched several times before they found them all!

Next to Shu Yunwen, Shiratori Rensaburo listened to Shu Yunwen's words and replied thoughtfully: "The murderer was probably worried about being discovered by our police, right? There were seven needle holes in the forehead of the victim's body. If he had hidden these seven needles in plain sight, Once discovered by our police, it will be easy for our police to make associations and launch an investigation on these seven bone needles..."

"Hmm...that's true." Shu Yunwen responded, "...the 'material' of these bones is human bones. You can find out with just one search, and you can also determine the DNA of the deceased who was made into 'bone needles' , maybe we can find some clues from your internal police database..."

Shu Yunwen analyzed a few sentences casually,

Shiratori nodded in agreement. Upon seeing this, the Kamawa couple standing nearby could not help but interrupt:

"Officer Shiratori, if you want to investigate the case, can you wait a moment? I'll introduce him, I'll introduce him now..."

"Uh...sorry."

Shiratori Rensaburo was stunned for a moment, apologized quickly, then turned to look at Shu Yunwen and said: "Master Yunwen, all seven needles have been found, can the soul of the victim be freed from now on, become a Buddha and leave?"

"That's right!" After Bai Niao finished speaking, Shu Yunwen nodded in agreement, and then continued to explain, "However, although these seven soul-fixing needles have been found, their evil aura is still 'piercing' this boy's body. In terms of soul, we have to clear away those evil spirits next..."

Shu Yunwen said, turned around and looked at the confused people around him, and curled his lips helplessly: "... In short, the matter is not over yet! Officer Shiratiao, give me all the bone needles!"

"Ah...Okay!" Shiratori Rensanlang was slightly startled, and quickly handed the six small evidence bags containing bone needles to Shu Yunwen.

Shu Yunwen took the evidence bag, poured out the seven soul-fixing needles, grabbed them in his hand, then walked out of the Kamawa couple's bedroom, returned to the living room, stood under Kamagawa Kazuki's soul, and gently The ground let go of his hand.

Immediately afterwards, under the gaze of everyone, seven seven-soul soul-fixing needles suddenly suspended in the air. As Kamikawa Kazusuke struggled, they slowly flew to the seven positions of his soul, and finally stopped.

Tsukamoto Sumi and Shiratori Rensaburo looked at this scene and were all dumbfounded and in disbelief: "This, this is..."

"This is the lifting of the energy field." Shu Yunwen explained softly, "...This phenomenon is actually the same as the principle of magnetic levitation in science, except that one uses magnetism and the other uses the dark world. It’s just strength…”

The people around were a little confused when they heard Shu Yunwen's explanation——

By the way, is it really okay for you to use scientific principles to explain such a supernatural phenomenon?

This is totally different from your character!

Everyone around was speechless, but Shu Yunwen slowly stretched out his hand, and then grabbed a seven-soul soul-fixing needle that was pierced into the left arm of Kamichuan Yijie's soul body. He used the magic power in his hand to pull out the needle.

As the soul-fixing needle was pulled out, Kamikawa Kazuki's soul trembled violently. After a few seconds, most of the Yin Qi, ghost energy, and evil spirit that gathered in Kamikawa Kazuki's left arm instantly dissipated, and the soul of Kamikawa Kazuki's left arm The body also looks much "clearer".

Shu Yunwen observed Kamikawa Kazusuke's ghost body and felt that there was nothing abnormal, so he handed the Seven Soul Soul Fixing Needle to Shiratori Rensaburo.

Shiratiao took the seven-soul soul-fixing needle and took out a small evidence bag from his clothes, trying to put the needle in it.

At the same time, Kamawa Kazuki's soul suddenly howled in the air, and the surrounding Yin Qi and ghost energy stirred up. The other six seven-soul soul-fixing needles nailed to Kamikawa Kazuki's soul flew out together, Stab towards Shu Yunwen...
