Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

Miyazaki Yuichi smiled and said, "Master Kuan Nian, it seems that the so-called incident is probably related to two important factors. According to my guess, this so-called incident should be a murder case, and the death of this person is related to the Tengu of Mist that your abbot, Master Ten'ei, mentioned."

Rumors of a so-called "Misty Tengu" appearing in a remote ancient temple in the mountains have attracted the attention of some television stations. However, your host is quite disgusted by this situation and is unwilling to talk about it further.

That's why, when we first arrived, the host mistook us for radio staff who had come to conduct an interview, which made perfect sense.

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. This speculation was reasonable and clear, and it instantly sorted out all the messy matters, making it easy for anyone to understand what had happened.

Kogoro Mouri laughed heartily: "Is your guess reasonable? You really do have the potential to be a great detective. Why don't you become my apprentice? That way, I, Kogoro Mouri, can pass on my title as the great detective to you in the future."

"Kogoro Mouri? The famous detective Kogoro Mouri?"

Kuan Nian and Xiu Nian's eyes lit up. They never expected that this seemingly unremarkable middle-aged man was actually a famous detective. It was truly unbelievable.

Monk Kuan Nian gritted his teeth and said, "Are you the famous detective Kogoro Mouri?"

Kogoro confidently replied, "Of course, there's only one Kogoro Mouri in this world, and that's me."

Kuan Nian nodded heavily: "In that case, I can tell you what I know. With the help of the detective's wisdom, we might be able to solve this case!"

Then he recounted the events of two years ago, the death of the monk Zhong Nian.

"I remember clearly that it was during the rainy season. Zhong Nian was studying scriptures in this room for cultivation, but later a large hole was dug in the wall, and Zhong Nian disappeared."

We all thought he had escaped, and after searching for three days and three nights, we had no choice but to give up.

So, on the morning of the fourth day, Mu Nian and I came here to repair the holes, but unexpectedly, we discovered Zhong Nian's body, which had been hanging from the beam at the top of the room for some time!

Seeing everyone's expressions, Kuan Nian continued speaking.

"Then all sorts of unbelievable facts were discovered one by one. First of all, there was that big hole. According to the master who came to repair the temple later, such a hole could not be created in a short time. It was a big project that would take a whole day to complete."

Then there's the clock hanging on the scale.

As you can see, the room is over ten meters high, and to prevent monks from overestimating their abilities and trying to climb out through the ventilation openings while being punished, the walls around the room have been painted with several layers of paint.

It is impossible for someone to suspend a person in mid-air by human power, because the police who investigated the case at the time did not find any signs of pulling on the beam above.

In other words, there are only two possibilities for Zhong Nian being suspended in mid-air like that: one is that Zhong Nian herself went through the air vent, slowly climbed onto the beam, and then tied a rope around herself to commit suicide.

However, Zhong Nian is not the kind of person who would commit suicide, so we all believe in the second possibility: that Zhong Nian was killed by an ancient monster with the ability to fly, the Mist Tengu, who was lurking near this ancient temple.

After all, in ancient legends, the Tengu was a monster that liked to hang people from trees, and only this monster had such devastating strength that it could carve a large hole in a wall in a short time.

Everyone was caught up in thought; the whole incident was strange in every way.

According to Kuan Nian's description, it's really impossible for a human to do all that.

Kogoro Mouri thought for a while but found he had no ideas, so he looked at Yu Miyazaki.

"I'm completely stuck. Have you thought of anything, kid?"

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "I can only be certain of one thing: there is absolutely no such thing as a Mist Tengu in this world. Since there is no Mist Tengu, it must be man-made."

Master Kuan Nian, you just said that this kind of thing is beyond human capability. You are wrong. Ordinary people cannot do it, but for martial arts masters, it is only a matter of a single thought.

With that, he pushed off with both legs, his figure flashed, and then disappeared from the spot like a phantom.

Chapter 261 The Death of Tianyong

Before anyone could see clearly, Miyazaki Yu had already leaped out.

In the blink of an eye, he had already leaped about three feet high. This was, of course, intentional on Miyazaki Yu's part. With his current strength, a full-force leap would instantly take him from the ground to the beam.

His figure leaped out, and then, like a nimble cat, he tilted slightly in the air and landed on the wall.

The smooth wall seemed to have no effect on his movements at all. He leaped again, and in two jumps, he reached the highest point. He gently pressed one hand on the wall, and his whole body was now hanging in the air like a gecko.

This scene stunned everyone!

There was absolutely nothing to hold onto on this incredibly slippery wall, but Miyazaki Yu walked as if on flat ground, easily leaping to the highest point, which was beyond everyone's comprehension.

However, Kogoro Mouri, Ran, and the others adapted very quickly.

For this guy, it's normal for him to be able to do the impossible with ease.

This technique is very similar to the gecko wall-climbing skill in martial arts novels.

Just like the dungeon where Zhao Min trapped Zhang Wuji in Green Willow Manor, that dungeon was made of fine steel and polished so smooth that there wasn't even a crack.

However, Zhang Wuji, relying on his gecko-like wall-climbing skills, easily "swam" from the ground to a higher place in the slippery hole.

As for Miyazaki Yu now, he can climb not only wooden walls, but also glass walls. After he became transparent inside and out, he can release his internal energy at will. Wherever his body goes, he can immediately channel his internal energy into the object.

By 'magnetizing' the object with an ion flow, that is, by connecting the object itself with the part that Miyazaki Yu is in contact with, as long as the internal force is still there, a certain stress can be generated between the two.

With this power, Miyazaki Yu can accomplish some ingenious things.

Just like now, he can hang his entire body upside down on the wall simply by pressing his palms against it.

"Ah! This is a miracle! How could a human possibly do this?"

Kogoro Mori quickly comforted him, "Masters, don't be surprised. He is different from ordinary people. You can think of him as a great master who transcends the mundane world. He is like those people in martial arts films who can fly high and low, leaping across rooftops and disappearing without a trace. For him, all of that is a piece of cake."

"In that case, the murderer might be a martial arts master!"

Conan was utterly speechless.

He thought to himself, "This scenario is impossible. After all, experts of this caliber do exist, but they are extremely rare. How could they possibly come to a desolate mountain wilderness just to kill a young monk, and even disguise themselves as the Tengu of Mist to commit the murder?"

Monk Kuan Nian was shocked.

"Aren't you all surprised? This gentleman has done something incredible, he's practically a carbon copy of the Tengu!"

Xiao Lan smiled and waved her hand: "Don't be too surprised. He can do it, but it's absolutely impossible for others. You can rest assured about that. After all, most people's abilities are still within a certain limit."

"Whoosh—whoosh—"

With a slight gust of wind, Miyazaki Yu slowly descended from the rooftop, so light and agile that it seemed weightless as she floated down.

This scene made the two monks tremble even more, staring in shock at Miyazaki Yu.

Miyazaki Yu looked at the two of them and smiled. Through continuous breakthroughs, his current strength had long since reached a level that ordinary people could only dream of.

However, this is still not enough for him; he still has a long, long way to go.

"Alright, masters, when we came out of the main hall, I heard a lot of water sounds. Just now, after going up, I saw a waterfall outside through the small window. Let's go up and take a look."

The two monks could only nod blankly, still reeling from the shock. This god-like figure was truly beyond their comprehension.

Ultimately, although they practice Buddhism, they are only young people around twenty years old.

Soon, the group headed up to the next level, and the sound of water became increasingly clear.

Pushing open the wooden door, a waterfall appeared before everyone's eyes. The rushing water flowed down from the mountain, like a silver river shattering into jade, and the slightly damp and cold water vapor immediately rushed towards them.

"Wow, that's amazing! The waterfall is really right in front of us!"

Ran was delighted to see the place so close to the waterfall, and Ai, standing beside her, also smiled slightly.

"It is indeed quite good. Cultivating in such a place might actually improve one's cultivation level, who knows?"

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "You little girl, you're finally happy. Seeing you smile is much more precious than seeing a waterfall."

Ai Haibara couldn't help but glare at this guy and let out a soft snort.

He thought to himself, "What a despicable guy! What does he mean by 'seeing my smile'? It's harder than seeing a waterfall. Do I like him having a long face that much?"

It's not her fault. Her true nature is quite free-spirited, but her personality was forcibly distorted within the Black Organization. As long as she's in a peaceful environment, she'll gradually regain her original personality.

After admiring the waterfall for a while, the group returned to the temple's dining hall.

It must be said that the vegetarian dishes made by the chubby Tun Nian were indeed very delicious. This made the group of people who had been thinking about the case of the monk Zhong Nian's death gradually relax and start chatting.

Kuan Nian and Xiu Nian had been quite reserved after witnessing Miyazaki Yu's incredible power, but they gradually relaxed as they chatted.

"Mr. Miyazaki, your skills just now were truly breathtaking. Such power is probably even greater than that so-called Tengu of Mist, isn't it?"

Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly, but before he could speak, he was reprimanded by the abbot, Ten'ei.

"Kuan Nian, I've already warned you all before. The Tengu is just an ancient legend, so let's not bring it up again!"

Monk Kuan Nian paused, could only nod, and dared not continue speaking.

After the meal, everyone arrived at the room that had been arranged. The room was very spacious. Kuan Nian and Tun Nian brought five sets of bedding and helped everyone make their beds before leaving.

Before leaving, he still asked the famous detective Kogoro Mouri to find out the secret behind Zhong Nian's death.

Kogoro Mouri readily agreed, but shook his head after they left.

"It's been several years since the case was filed, who knows what happened? I should just go to sleep, I'm so sleepy right now."

The five of them used Kogoro Mouri as a boundary, with Ran and Ai sleeping on his left and Miyazaki Hayao and Conan sleeping on his right. This completely isolated them from any potential attempts by certain people to take advantage of them by disguising themselves as children.

I wonder if Conan, that little rascal, will be quite disappointed.

Because of Miyazaki Yu's intervention, Ten'yō Monk did not say those frightening words to scare Ran, so everyone was very peaceful all night, and nothing happened.

The next day, when everyone had made their beds, gotten dressed, and were about to go to the canteen for lunch, a terrified scream rang out!

Everyone hurriedly followed the sound and arrived at the small room where they had seen the monk being punished the day before, only to witness a horrifying scene!

The man who was so arrogant last night, Tianyong, is now hanging high on the roof beam, a dead man.

Chapter 262 Cracking Method (3rd Update)

"This is Tianyong's support? How could this be!"

The fear that had subsided resurfaced from the depths of their hearts, and the young monks were now trembling with fear.

"Just like back then, just like Zhong Nian, Zhong Nian back then, just like Abbot Tianyong, was hung there and died like that!"

Miyazaki Yu remained completely unfazed, quickly scanning his surroundings with a cold smile playing on his lips.

This guy finally couldn't resist taking action. It seems even I, a little butterfly, can't stop a heart set on revenge.

But it doesn't really matter. Some things are bound to happen sooner or later, so it doesn't matter when.

"Ran, hurry and call the police to inform Inspector Megure! Everyone must follow Detective Mouri's instructions and not disturb the scene!"

Kogoro Mouri also reacted quickly, giving Miyazaki Yu an appreciative look.

"Miyazaki Yu is right. Everyone, get out of here and don't disturb the scene. This could very well be a murder!"

The monks were already on edge, and had no choice but to do as the famous detective instructed.
