Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

"It's getting late, this young master should return home!"

After Zhang Kaidi and Zhang Liang left in their carriage, Han Fei finally put away his carefree attitude and prepared to leave the gentle haven of Zilan Pavilion.

Just as Han Fei stepped out of the private room, a maid suddenly emerged from the next room.

Through the open door of the private room next door, Han Fei saw the back of a man dressed in black fine clothes with short white hair.

"what?"

Although Han Fei only saw the man's back, his intuition told him that this man was no ordinary person.

Wei Zhuang, who was admiring the moonlight outside the window, seemed to notice Han Fei's gaze and suddenly turned to look at him.

Seeing this, Han Fei smiled and nodded, then left thoughtfully.

On the other side, Suzuki Seimei rubbed his belly and tugged at Murasaki's hand, saying, "Murasaki-neechan, I'm hungry."

With eyes full of doting affection, Zi Nu said, "What do you want to eat? I'll have someone make it for you."

"I want to eat the red bean porridge that Sister Zi Nu makes."

"Red bean porridge?"

Zi Nu was slightly taken aback at first, then gave him a charming glance: "You little rascal!"

Upon hearing this, Suzuki Seimei revealed a smug, mischievous smile.

next morning

Having officially taken over the "Ghost Soldiers Robbery of Supplies" case, Han Fei immediately took Zhang Liang to the residences of Lord Longquan and Lord Anping to inquire about the details of the incident.

Although Lord Longquan and Lord Anping were royal relatives, neither of them were particularly intelligent; otherwise, King An of Han would not have tolerated their existence.

Therefore, under Han Fei's guidance, Lord Longquan and his group quickly exposed their true colors.

After catching Longquan Jun and his accomplices by the nose, Han Fei immediately reported the matter to King An of Han, who then issued an edict authorizing the arrest of Longquan Jun and Anping Jun.

Upon learning that Lord Longquan and his men dared to covet military funds, King Han An disregarded his brotherhood with them and immediately ordered them imprisoned.

While Han Fei and his team were busy solving the case, Suzuki Seimei secretly infiltrated the Korean military supply depot and began stealing materials needed to craft mechanical beasts.

┐??┌

It's not fair to blame Suzuki Seimei for lacking martial ethics; the problem lies in the sheer size of the mechanical beasts, which required an excessive amount of metal materials to create.

If it's just a small amount of metal material, Suzuki Seimei can buy it directly from a blacksmith's shop.

However, to forge a mechanical beast that is more than three meters tall, at least several tons of metal materials would be required, so we can only find a way to obtain them from the military supply depot.

Of course!

Suzuki Seimei didn't need to worry about implicating innocent people, because the military supply depot he visited was one of the military supply depots under Ji Wuye's command, which could be considered as robbing the rich to help the poor.

After collecting enough raw materials, Suzuki Seimei also began to use alchemy to create the Five Elements Mechanical Beasts.

Since the power core of the mechanical beast is entirely controlled by human power, its body cannot be made entirely of metal. It is mostly made of lighter wood; otherwise, if the mechanical beast is too heavy, it simply cannot be started.

To avoid attracting attention and to make it easier to use local materials, Suzuki Seimei deliberately chose a secluded forest as the location for crafting the Five Elements Mechanical Beasts.

"Boom!"

However, what Suzuki Seimei did not know was that while he was focused on refining the Five Elements Mechanical Beasts, the rumbling sound of trees collapsing one after another reached a very secluded cave hundreds of meters away.

A middle-aged, burly man wearing bright silver armor and carrying a large sword at his waist frowned upon hearing the distant rumbling sounds. He pointed at the two soldiers closest to the cave entrance and said, "You two go outside and check what's going on."

"As ordered!"

Upon hearing this, two fully armed soldiers immediately rushed towards the direction from which the sound came.

Chapter 604 The Baiyue Demoness (Second Update, Please Vote)

"Swish"

Two fully armed soldiers, expressionless, moved through the jungle and soon arrived at the location from which the roaring sound came.

Д

When the two peeked through the bushes and saw Suzuki Seimei using alchemy to create parts for a mechanical beast, their eyes widened in disbelief.

As the two men were the personal guards of the General's Mansion, they were quite knowledgeable and naturally knew about the powerful weapon, the mechanical beast.

However, mechanical beasts are difficult to manufacture, especially large mechanical beasts like the one created by Suzuki Seimei.

Even with dozens of craftsmen working together, it would take at least several months to create a large mechanical beast.

But this little child in front of us is using incredible abilities to quickly manufacture parts for mechanical beasts, which is really against common sense!

"withdraw!"

One of them was the first to recover from the shock, and pulled his companion, who was still in shock, back to the cave along the same route.

As soon as the two soldiers returned to the cave entrance, the middle-aged man in bright silver armor asked in a rough voice, "Have you found out what happened?"

"General, we've discovered..."

Just as the two soldiers were about to report on Suzuki Haruaki to the middle-aged man, a somewhat amused voice suddenly rang out: "Huh? It seems I've discovered a treasure!"

"ever!

! ”

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. He abruptly drew his broadsword from his waist, pointed it at Suzuki Harumi who had walked in from outside the cave, and roared murderously, "Kill him!"

“曾曾曾”

At the command of the middle-aged man, dozens of guards in the cave drew their swords without hesitation and slashed at Suzuki Seimei.

"Puff puff"

Just as Suzuki Seimei was about to be hacked to death, he suddenly transformed into a blur and shot out, wielding the Demon-Slaying Sword as he swiftly passed through the crowd.

"bang bang bang"

Those guards who charged towards Suzuki Seimei felt a sudden chill between their brows, followed by a blackout, and all of them collapsed to the ground, completely lifeless.

"Don't come any closer!"

Upon witnessing dozens of fully armed guards being wiped out in an instant by Suzuki Seimei, the only remaining middle-aged man was terrified, and his hands gripping the hilt of his sword began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Whoosh!"

! ”

Suzuki Seimei suddenly looked up, staring into the eyes of the middle-aged man, and used his dream magic to pull him into a dream.

The middle-aged man, pulled into the dream, quickly revealed everything he knew under Suzuki Seimei's coercion and enticement.

According to the information confessed by the middle-aged strong man, his name is Liu Dali. He is a subordinate general under Ji Wuye and one of his most trusted confidants.

The reason Liu Dali and his group were here was because they were ordered by Ji Wuye to guard the 100,000 taels of gold stored here.

That's right!

The treasures stored in this cave are the military pay stolen in the "Ghost Soldiers Robbery of Military Pay Case".

It was precisely because these military funds were of such great importance that Liu Dali wanted to kill Suzuki Harumi to silence him when he saw this uninvited guest.

After all, stealing military funds is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family, and not a single word of it can be leaked.

However, Liu Dali did not expect that Suzuki Harumi would be so strong, and the personal guards he brought were no match for him.

Besides the various crimes and evidence related to Ji Wuye, Suzuki Seimei also learned an unexpected surprise from Liu Dali: the location where Tianze and Yanlingji were being held.

Because Liu Dali was in charge of supervising the construction of the cages that imprisoned Tianze and Yan Lingji, he knew all about them so clearly.

Although Suzuki Seimei had no interest in Amaze, he was quite interested in Yan Lingji, the stunningly beautiful enchantress.

"Pfft!"

Considering that Liu Dali had provided a lot of useful information, Suzuki Seimei did not continue to torture him. He directly pierced Liu Dali's forehead with the Demon Slayer Sword, causing Liu Dali to die in his sleep.

"Swish"

Suzuki Seimei raised his small hand and waved it, summoning several ribbon clones that took all 100,000 taels of gold from the cave into his storage space.

After emptying the cave of gold, Suzuki Seimei did not rush to rescue Yan Lingji, but continued to refine the Five Elements Mechanical Beasts.

Anyway, Yan Lingji has been imprisoned in the crystal cage for quite some time now, so there's no rush.

Xinzheng City Suburbs

In a dark and damp dungeon

In the center of the main hall deep within the dungeon, there was a special cage made of blue crystal, filled with clear spring water.

"crash"

A graceful figure, like a mermaid from legend, is swimming in the water.

Her long, black hair, reaching her waist, swayed in the waves, exuding an indescribable smoothness. The scattered black gauze wrapped around her waist made her skin appear as white as snow.

"Gudong"

The guards responsible for watching over the place looked up at the graceful figure in the crystal cage and couldn't help but swallow hard.

The Baiyue demoness imprisoned in the crystal cage is truly captivating!

Even the guards who have been watching over her here for years, seeing her swimming in the water every day, still cannot resist the charm she exudes.

It is said that even the great general Ji Wuye could not resist the charm of this demoness, which is why he could not bear to kill her and instead had a special crystal cage made for her using millennium-old crystal.

The cage, crafted from millennia-old crystal, may appear to be only a thin layer, but its defensive capabilities are comparable to steel.

Moreover, the crystal cage was filled with spring water, so even if this Baiyue witch was proficient in fire magic, she would be powerless to use it inside the crystal cage.

Besides, this crystal cage has another very special feature: you can see clearly inside from the outside.

Those inside the crystal cage can only see their own reflection, as if looking in a mirror.

It is precisely because of the special nature of the crystal cage that the Baiyue demoness's illusions cannot be used; otherwise, the guards watching outside would probably have become her puppets long ago.

"Ahhh"

Just as the guards were admiring the Baiyue demoness's graceful figure as usual, a series of shrill screams suddenly came from outside the door.
