The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

At this moment, Hideaki Nakajima's expression turned even more grim.

However, Nakata wasn't finished speaking. He suddenly turned to his companion behind him and continued, "And both work and women, don't you agree, Takeshita!"

The man called Takeshita was a thin man who wore glasses and looked somewhat timid.

After being suddenly called out by Tanaka, his expression became noticeably unnatural.

After a moment of stunned silence, Takeshita simply adjusted his glasses and said somewhat awkwardly, "Yes, yes, but that was back in college, I've long forgotten about it..."

Clearly, something interesting happened between this man named Takeshita and Hideaki Nakajima.

Chapter 284 A Moment of Silence, Boxing Force Testing Machine (2-in-1)

Just as the atmosphere at the scene became extremely awkward.

"Alright, I'll pretend I don't know about this." Tanaka's attitude suddenly changed, and he looked at Nakajima Hideaki with a smug look in his eyes. "But I have a feeling that you're being driven to the brink of ruin by underground banks lately."

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, Hideaki Nakajima's face darkened noticeably, and he unconsciously gritted his teeth.

Even the way he looked at Tanaka became dangerous.

"Thank you, this is the identification number for where you left your belongings."

On the other side, the staff at the luggage storage area smiled and handed the number tag to Yuanzi, who had already finished storing her belongings.

"Number ninety-six! That's a pretty good number!" Sonoko looked at the number plate in her hand and felt a little happy.

Then, she quickly urged Ran, who was still staring at Hideaki Nakajima and the others behind her, "Ran, hurry up and come over, it's your turn!"

"Ah!" Xiaolan, who only remembered that she was in line after being reminded, hurriedly turned around.

Just at this time.

Mr. Takeshita suddenly glanced at his watch and hurriedly reminded Tanaka and Nakajima beside him, "Oh no, it's getting late!"

"What?" Tanaka glanced at the time on his watch hurriedly, his face also showing anxiety.

Takeshita wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "We need to get into the venue and get ready quickly!"

Tanaka said to Nakajima with some concern, "Yeah, being late will get you a good scolding from the president!"

"That's true! We need to get in quickly!"

Before Xiaolan could react, the three people standing outside the line hurriedly stepped in front of her and cut in line to store their briefcases.

Seeing the three people who suddenly cut in line, Sonoko narrowed her eyes in annoyance, just about to lash out.

However, the three of them immediately apologized sincerely to Sonoko, explaining that if they were late, they would have a large amount of their bonus deducted, which might mean they wouldn't be able to afford food next month.

Only after being persuaded by Ran did Sonoko reluctantly forgive the three people's behavior.

However, the observant Conan and Yuu Aragaki noticed that the three of them were using the same style of handbag.

After Ran finally finished storing her luggage, her mood improved considerably. She showed the number on the card to Yuu Aragaki and Sonoko Suzuki: "Look, we're really lucky! It's exactly number 100. We might encounter something good today."

As she spoke, Ran bent down slightly and lowered the number plate so Conan could see it too.

Conan couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly twice, thinking to himself, "Hehehe, what a lucky woman."

……

The venue was packed with people, clearly attracting many game enthusiasts to visit.

Throughout the venue, Mantian Company also displayed various game consoles, some of which were classic old games, and of course, there were also new models that had not yet been released.

The other shikigami in Aragaki Yu's Yin-Yang Domain were dozing off, but only Yaodao-hime was excitedly running around the venue, gazing longingly at the dazzling array of game interfaces.

Ran and Conan were already sitting in front of a classic fighting game console, excitedly starting their battle.

Yuu Aragaki stood behind the two of them with great interest and glanced at the game, finding that it did resemble the Street Fighter game he had played before.

Of course, while looking at the game interface of the two, Aragaki Yu was more focused on observing the tourists in the venue.

I wonder where that tequila guy is now.

If I'm not mistaken, Tequila should be mingling among the guests at the event right now.

On the other hand, Yaodao-hime, even though no one except Aragaki Yu noticed her, still stood excitedly next to Xiaolan, waving her arms and cheering her on.

However, it was clear that Yaodao-hime's encouragement was of no use, and before long, Ran was at a disadvantage under Conan's relentless attacks.

"Oh dear, I'm about to be defeated!" Xiaolan muttered as she looked at her character, who was down to a sliver of health.

This surprised Aragaki Yu a little.

Could it be because Ran is giving in to Conan?

Shouldn't Conan be a complete gaming idiot?

Even when facing the elementary school students of the Junior Detective League, Conan didn't really have the upper hand in video games.

However, it soon turned out that Aragaki Yu was overthinking things.

Less than a minute later, Xiaolan jumped up from her seat: "Wow, great! We've turned the tide!"

The Demon Blade Princess, standing atop Xiaolan's head, happily bounced around, hugging the horn on Xiaolan's head.

Looking at the satisfied smile on Yaodao-hime's face, Aragaki Yu even suspected that she attributed Ran's victory to her encouragement.

Sonoko, who had been observing the battle from the sidelines, couldn't help but pat Conan on the shoulder and laugh, "Hahaha, kid, you're not good at this either!"

These words made Conan turn his face away, glaring angrily at the person beside him, unable to utter a word.

"Xiao Lan, you're really amazing!"

Suddenly, Mr. Tanaka appeared behind Ran and Conan, praising Ran, "Your skills just now were truly rare to see!"

"Oh? Really!" Ran blushed and looked a little embarrassed when she heard Mr. Tanaka's words.

In order not to disturb other guests using the game consoles, Ran and Conan quickly gave up their seats.

Led by Mr. Tanaka, the group strolled around the lobby for a while and experienced quite a few interesting games.

Even Aragaki Yu had to admit that Japan does indeed have a very unique approach to video games.

However, when no one was looking, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

He could tell from the envious and excited look in Yaodaoji's eyes that he probably wouldn't be able to keep his wallet today.

You know, Japanese video game software is good, but it's also really expensive!

During this time, the group also attended the launch event for the Kogoro Mouri Mystery Mansion game, which was produced under the supervision of Kogoro Mouri.

Seeing that Kogoro Mouri, though looking somewhat listless, had at least mustered his spirits and was sitting on the press conference stage, Ran finally felt completely relieved.

After a while, led by Mr. Tanaka, the group passed by a boxing strength testing machine.

At this moment, the other two members of the trio, Mr. Nakajima and Mr. Takeshita, were also standing in this place, watching a rather burly and robust man box.

The man shouted "Hah!" and his fist slammed into the target, displaying the number "246" on the screen.

Although this is a figure that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

However, Mr. Takeshita said with some regret, "It's such a pity. It was just a little bit short. If it could have exceeded 250, there would have been an even cooler and more eye-catching scene!"

At this point, Mr. Takeshita suddenly looked at Mr. Nakajima beside him and said with a smile, "Hey, Nakajima, can you come over and demonstrate? This is your specialty."

"Ah? Okay!"

Mr. Nakajima was clearly taken aback for a moment, but he quickly recovered, took off his suit jacket and handed it to Mr. Takeshita to hold, and then put on his boxing gloves.

After a few quick wrist flexes, he threw a punch, and the machine's screen quickly displayed a high score of "348." A dazzling flash of light accompanied the screen, and cool music filled the air.

Ran Mouri stood beside the machine, watching this scene and couldn't help but clap and cheer: "Wow, that's amazing! Mr. Nakajima, did you study something before?"

Meanwhile, Aragaki Yu glanced curiously at Mr. Takeshita, who was helping Nakajima Hideaki with his coat.

Because Yuu Aragaki noticed that, at the very moment Hideaki Nakajima threw a punch, Mr. Takeshita's hand, hidden under his coat, seemed to be fiddling with something.

"Haha~" Mr. Nakajima chuckled, then took his jacket back from Takeshita's hand and explained, "Back in my university days, I used to practice boxing for a while!"

"Oh, by the way, Xiaolan, and this young lady and young man, would you like to try out this machine too?"

After receiving the boxing gloves from Mr. Nakajima, Mr. Takeshita handed them to Ran, Yuu Aragaki, and Sonoko, smiling and inviting them, "How about trying them out? They're perfect for relieving stress!"

"No, I don't need it!"

Sonoko was clearly not very interested in this kind of thing and quickly waved her hand in refusal.

Xiaolan, on the other hand, seemed quite interested after hearing this: "Relieve stress?"

At this moment, Ran unconsciously recalled the image of Shinichi Kudo, who had been missing recently.

At this point, Aragaki Yu also became somewhat interested in the machine.

It wasn't that Aragaki Yu needed to relieve any pressure, but rather that he felt his physical condition had improved considerably recently under the nourishment of spiritual energy.

He was indeed curious about his own strength and hoped to take this opportunity to assess his abilities.

So, while Ran was still hesitating, Aragaki Yu also took the boxing gloves from Mr. Takeshita.

He put the boxing glove on his right hand and walked to the boxing force testing machine.

However, just as Aragaki Yu was moving his wrist.
