Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Eri Akechi burst into laughter, "It's because his expression is too cold, and the sense of distance is enhanced by the overly gorgeous kimono. I saw the same thing with Xiao Ai just now. It feels like seeing a delicate Japanese doll, no It’s like seeing a real little girl. The siblings are so pretty and have similar expressions. In addition, Mr. Chi is wearing a kimono, but he is not as cute as the little girl. After you see it, you will think of the shrine’s Clay puppets."

Conan suddenly felt that it made sense. Looking back on Chi Feichi's appearance at that time, he seemed to be the same as usual.

Haibara Ai thought for a while, "That's right, it would be strange for Brother Feichi to wear traditional clothes. Last time I went to Kyoto, I wore that black kimono, which made people feel like a cherry blossom demon. Before the twin skyscrapers, he wore With a tuxedo, it's more like a vampire."

"That means that Mr. Chi has a good temperament, I want to see how he looks in kimono!" Akechi Eri laughed, "You don't have to worry about him misunderstanding you, just explain it clearly to him when you go back later, It’s not a big deal or a nuisance that can’t be solved at all.”

The other four felt relieved immediately.

Mao Lilan laughed, "Ms. Huili is really good at comforting people!"

"But let's just say that he has a good temperament, he is usually too gloomy," Mori Kogoro looked disgusted, "If he could smile and be more cheerful, he wouldn't be like this..."

"Father!" Mao Lilan's black hair prevented him from complaining, "What are you talking about!"

"Miss Akechi, is there a shrine?" Haibara Ai looked at the building not far away, "Can I ask for a guard?"

"That's right," Mao Lilan looked over, "We can take a guardian back and give it to Brother Feichi!"

Conan also thought this plan was good, and looked up at Eri Akechi.

"Unfortunately," Eri Akechi shook his head, "Although every household here enshrines the kimono sleeve god, the shrine has no guardian, because the kimono sleeve god is actually called the kimono sleeve god..."

"Kimono Sode Wisdom?" Conan wondered.

"This is a legend handed down from ancient times. It is said that there used to be a girl named Xiaohua in this village. Xiaohua was diligent and kind. One day, she rescued a warrior who was injured in a fall on the road. I brought her the long-sleeved kimono and belt,” Akechi Eri said softly, “Later, the village chief’s two daughters deliberately framed her because they were jealous of her, and Xiao Hana was taken away by the government, and her kimono was also taken away.” The two daughters of the village chief were snatched away. On the night Xiaohua was executed, the two daughters of the village chief spread out the long-sleeved kimonos and belts they had snatched, immersed in joy. At this moment, a gust of wind blew out the candle , Xiao Hua's ghost found them..."

Mao Lilan knelt down and picked up Luo Liai in the kimono, scared and hugged her tightly.

"By the time the family members of the two sisters heard their screams and rushed there, the younger sister had died in her unfurled long-sleeved kimono," Eri Akechi continued, "while the older sister drowned in a pond in the garden. , and many belts were wrapped around her body. The villagers knew that Xiao Hua would not die with peace, so they built a shrine for her and regarded her as the patron saint of the village. The shrine called Kimono Sodegami Taisha, sometimes she also becomes a god of vengeance."

Conan understood, it was the monster-like gods in the legend. Not many people enshrined this kind of gods. Not only did they not provide blessings and guards, but they were sometimes used to "curse".

"You know so much." Mao Lilan sighed.

"It's because I often come to Kotoya Ryokan to write," Eri Akechi smiled, "I heard everyone discuss it several times."

"Then..." Mao Lilan's expression suddenly became serious, "Mr. Eri, the kimono sleeve god doesn't have a boyfriend, right?"

Conan, Haibara Ai, Mori Kogoro: "?"

Does Kimono Sodegami have a boyfriend or not?

"Y-shouldn't be there," Akechi Eri was also a little confused, unable to understand Mao Lilan's concerns, "but this doesn't seem to have anything to do with the legend..."

"Maybe it has nothing to do with the legend, but maybe it has something to do with Brother Feichi," Mao Lilan put down Haibara Ai in her arms, looked at Akechi Eri seriously, and explained, "We met him last time when we went to Tianbu Mountain. Strange thing, the goddess they enshrined was a red-haired girl, and when they were on the train, they saw a red-haired girl sitting next to Brother Feichi sitting in front, but when he walked up, he found that there was no girl with red hair beside him. people……"

"But didn't I say it last time? It should be an illusion." Conan said.

"But then Brother Feichi went to the Tiannv Statue by himself in the middle of the night, didn't he? Although he said he wanted to take Feichi for a walk, or maybe he wanted to walk alone at night, but I still felt something was wrong. Something invisible is watching us secretly," Mao Lilan said with a serious face, "I suspect that it is Tiannv who wants to seduce Brother Feichi, and Brother Feichi is the kind of physique that is easy to provoke ghosts in movies and TV dramas. Maybe this time It's the same, when he put on the kimono, some kind of taboo was triggered, making the kimono god stare at him, and if this continues, the kimono god might harm Brother Feichi!"

That's right, to sum it up, Brother Feichi is not suitable to come to a place with legends, and is easy to be seduced and seduced by those celestial girls, kimono sleeve gods, and banshees!

The air is quiet.

Haibara Ai, Conan, Mori Kogoro, and Akechi Eri stared blankly at Mori Ran.

"Okay," Mao Lilan was immersed in her own reasoning, rolled up her sleeves, and walked towards the shrine with a resolute expression, "No matter what god it is, I must explain it to her!"

"Hey, hey..." Mori Kogoro hurriedly chased after him, "Xiao Lan, wait!"

Conan saw Mao Lilan looking like he was going to smash the shrine, sweated, and caught up to remind him, "Sister Xiaolan, karate is probably useless against kimono sleeve gods."

Mao Lilan thought of all kinds of horror legends, slowed down her pace, put down her clenched fists, and said with peas, "I...I just want to reason with her."

Haibara Ai:"……"

It turns out that "reasonable" is used in this way, so...um...very good!

A group of people went up the mountain, entered the shrine, and found singer-songwriter Harumi Fukatsu standing under a cherry blossom tree.

Harumi Fukatsu said that she has a college senior who likes cherry blossom trees very much. This "kimono sleeve cherry tree" was told by that senior. She will come here this time because she wants to visit the place that senior said.

Conan found the small ancestral hall dedicated to the kimono sleeve god, curiously opened the wooden door and looked in, and at a glance saw two 'kimono paper figurines' which were obviously newly put in recently.

A group of people found that someone was "cursing", and they were not in the mood to stay any longer.

Mao Lilan was even more imaginative, guessing that the two paper figurines were put in by 'kimono sleeve god', which means 'I want to take two people away', and those two people came here to wear gorgeous kimonos Chi Feichi and Hui Yuanai.

It is reasonable and well-founded: because only Chi Feichi and Haibara Ai wear kimonos in this village, yukatas are not counted, yukatas were only used as clothes worn at home in ancient times, and they are different from kimonos...

Back at the hotel, Kogoro Mori listened to Mao Lilan’s thoughts and analysis, and said helplessly, “How is that possible? There have been so many tourists here over the years, and some people in the village occasionally wear kimonos. The people in the kimono will be taken away, and many people will have been killed by then."

"Maybe those people's kimonos are not gorgeous enough," Mao Lilan hugged Haibara in her arms, still serious, "If it weren't for the festivals in the big shrine, many people would not be willing to wear this kind of clothing worth several million Japanese yen kimonos are everywhere, and there are definitely not many people who come here wearing such expensive kimonos.”

"A few million yen?!" Mori Kogoro took an exaggerated step back, leaning against the window by the corridor, with a look of 'don't scare me', staring at Mao Lilan and his quilt Mao Lilan like dolls Hui Yuanai in her arms.

Haibara Ai:"……"

"That's not the point, the point is that the two of them are in a difficult situation now," Mao Lilan said seriously, "Brother Feichi is very handsome, and Xiao Ai is so cute, wearing a kimono like a doll, I want to hold Xiao Ai all the time." Sorry, it's normal for the kimono sleeve god to want to take it away."

Mori Kogoro was silent for a while, then turned to ask Eri Akechi next to him, "Ms. Eri, what do you think of my daughter becoming a novelist in the future?"

Mao Lilan: "..."

Well, she's already getting angry.

Conan lay down in front of the glass window and saved Mori Kogoro, "Is that house over there also the shrine of the kimono sleeve god?"

Mao Lilan felt as if he was facing an enemy, hugged Hui Yuanai tightly, and stayed away from the window.

Mori Kogoro looked out the window, "That's probably a warehouse."

"No," Akechi Eri looked over, "That's also a shrine dedicated to the kimono god..."

Two minutes later, Mori Kogoro and Conan stepped on the snow in the courtyard at the insistence of Mori Lan, and went to the warehouse to have a look.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual or cursing the paper figurine, Mao Lilan carried Hui Yuanai back to the room, and supervised Hui Yuanai to change into the kimono.

Conan's task was to see if Chi Feichi was there. He opened the bedroom and saw that Chi Feichi was sleeping soundly, and closed the door again. As soon as he walked to the desk, he felt something was wrong, and ran forward to open the door again with a slam.

"What's the matter Conan?" Mao Lilan went out with Hui Yuanai who had changed his clothes.

"Feichi is just sleeping," Mori Kogoro, who was sitting at the table, looked at him with half-moon eyes and said, "Don't be so nervous."

Conan didn't answer, he stepped forward and squatted beside the quilt, and reached out to touch Chi Feichi's forehead solemnly.

Chi Feichi was not awakened by the sound of his opening the door, something was wrong, either he was too tired and slept too deeply, or he was sick and given sleeping pills.

As for the legend of the kimono sleeve god, he doesn't believe it at all.

The moment Conan put his hand on Chi Feichi's forehead, Chi Feichi opened his eyes and looked at Conan calmly.

Conan breathed a sigh of relief, retracted his hand, and explained, "You didn't wake up when I opened the door just now, I thought you were sick..."

Chi Feichi sat up, raised his hand and touched his forehead, "I don't feel uncomfortable."

Haibara Ai stood at the door, and she didn't believe in any legends about kimono sleeve gods. If she didn't feel uncomfortable, it would be a good thing to have a deep sleep.

"That's good," Mao Lilan looked at Hui Yuan Ai, "Since it's fine, let's go take a bath, Xiao Ai will leave it to me, Brother Feichi will leave it to Dad and Conan."

Chi Feichi pulled back the quilt and got up, looked at the group of people with a calm face, "Is something wrong?"

Hearing what Mao Lilan said, it was as if he and Hui Yuanai were being targeted by some bad guys.

Mao Lilan sweated, "No..."

Conan Banyueyan, what he just said is so obvious, Chi Feichi must have noticed the problem, and it is useless to deny it, "Sister Xiaolan is worried that you and Huiyuan will be taken away by the kimono sleeve god..."
