Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Upon seeing the people who were in their way, the ghost soldiers instantly transformed into streaks of afterimages and pounced on Zi Nu and Han Fei, intending to leave the two of them there forever.

"It's so lively so late at night!"

Just as Zi Nu was protecting Han Fei while wielding her snake-chain soft sword to fight back, a somewhat childish voice suddenly rang out: "Yan'er, why don't you set off a fire to celebrate too!"

"As ordered!"

"Boom boom boom..."

As a melodious and ethereal voice fell, a terrifying tornado of fire suddenly appeared out of thin air and swept towards Zi Nu and the others from all directions.

"Quack quack..."

The crows hidden in the tattered armor were burned to ashes by the terrifying fire tornado, leaving only the remains of the armor.

Chapter 608 Raising Bandits for Self-Reliance

"Yan'er, stop!"

Just as Zi Nu and Han Fei were about to be burned to ashes by the fire tornado, Suzuki Seimei's voice suddenly rang out again, and the terrifying fire tornado instantly dissipated.

"Sister Zi Nu, are you alright?"

To Zi Nu's somewhat surprised gaze, Yan Ling Ji, carrying Suzuki Seimei, jumped down from the rooftop not far away.

"We're fine."

Zi Nu subconsciously shook her head, then asked with some curiosity, "Little rascal, who is this little sister?"

Suzuki Seimei said proudly, "Her name is Yan Lingji, and she's my new personal maid. Isn't she beautiful?"

"It's really beautiful!"

Looking at Yan Lingji's stunningly beautiful face, Zi Nu couldn't help but sigh, "A beauty like this, let alone a man, would probably make even a woman's heart flutter."

Zi Nu herself was an absolute beauty, and she was very confident in her looks. However, compared to Yan Ling Ji, the enchanting beauty of the Baiyue region, her looks were still slightly inferior.

(* ￣︶￣)

Faced with Zi Nu's praise, Yan Ling Ji simply smiled sweetly, appearing exceptionally well-behaved, showing no trace of seductive charm, but rather more like a girl next door.

"Yan Ling Ji?"

Han Fei silently murmured the name to himself, but couldn't recall any related information.

Because King An of Han seized the throne through dishonorable means, and because Prince Tianze of Baiyue was the one who suffered the most at his hands, King An of Han had already ordered the relevant documents to be destroyed.

Therefore, let alone Yan Lingji, Han Fei has no idea what the name Tianze means.

After waiting for a while and finding that no ghost soldiers appeared, Han Fei cupped his hands towards Suzuki Seimei and the others and said, "It seems that there is no danger anymore. Then Han Fei will take his leave. Thank you for your help, Miss Zi Nu and the other two."

"Sister Zi Nu, it's getting late, let's go back and rest!"

"Okay~ I'll listen to you."

Zi Nu affectionately pinched Suzuki Seimei's cheek and led him and Yan Ling Ji back to Zi Lan Xuan.

Hidden in the shadows, Bai Feng watched Suzuki Seimei and the others depart and couldn't help but ask Mo Ya beside her, "Mo Ya, what should we do next?"

"I didn't expect that woman to have escaped. We'd better hurry back and report to the general!"

Mo Ya is Ji Wuye's confidant and has served Ji Wuye for more than ten years. He knows many of Ji Wuye's secrets and naturally knows Yan Lingji as well.

After all, a beauty like Yan Lingji is someone that a normal person would never forget after seeing her even once.

Back at Zilan Pavilion, Suzuki Seimei enjoyed a comfortable bath for over half an hour, attended by Yan Lingji. He then had Zi Nu and Nong Yu help him warm his bed.

To express his gratitude to Yan Lingji and the others, Suzuki Seimei used the "Nightmare Technique" to give them a wonderful dream all night long.

While Yan Lingji and the others were lost in their sweet dreams, Suzuki Seimei measured their ample bosoms, pondered their profound truths, and finally fell asleep contentedly in the embrace of their gentle embrace.

……

General's Mansion

"What did you say? Yan Ling Ji escaped!"

Ji Wuye, who was enjoying being fed wine by a beautiful woman in his mansion, pushed away the woman sitting on his lap after hearing Mo Ya's report, and his face turned very ugly.

Ji Wuye was naturally deeply impressed by a stunning beauty like Yan Lingji. He specially had a crystal cage built for her because he couldn't bear to kill her and hoped that she would come to her senses one day.

As long as Yan Lingji shows any willingness to submit to Ji Wuye, the guards responsible for watching over her will report this to Ji Wuye immediately, and she will then become Ji Wuye's most favored concubine.

In fact, Ji Wuye could also force himself on Yan Lingji; he just needed to give her some aphrodisiac.

However, if that were the case, Yan Lingji would probably choose to commit suicide directly, and Ji Wuye doesn't have the habit of taking advantage of the situation.

Of course!

Compared to the fact that Yan Lingji escaped, what Ji Wuye wanted to find out more was who exposed the location of the dungeon where Yan Lingji was being held.

It's impossible for Yan Lingji to escape from the crystal cage on her own; someone must have rescued her.

It's important to know that the dungeon where Yan Lingji was imprisoned was located in a very secluded place, and only Ji Wuye's trusted confidants could possibly know its exact location.

In the original story, the reason why Wushuang Gui was able to find Yan Lingji and rescue her from the crystal cage was not a mere coincidence, but because Ji Wuye deliberately sent someone to lure him there; otherwise, he would never have been able to find that place.

Ji Wuye had already released Tianze at that time, so he released Yanlingji right afterward to prevent him from being left to fend for himself.

Therefore, Ji Wuye needs to figure out whether someone accidentally rescued Yan Lingji, or whether there was a traitor among his confidants.

If it's the former, it's not a big problem. But if it's the latter, then Ji Wuye will have to thoroughly purge his trusted confidants.

"Mo Ya, go and check on the situation in those two places..."

Ji Wuye's expression shifted between light and dark, and he told Mo Ya two more locations, instructing him to take Bai Feng and the others to investigate.

One of the locations was the cave where Liu Dali and his men were responsible for guarding the military supplies, and the other location was the dungeon where Tianze was imprisoned.

Even if Ji Wuye was wealthy, 100,000 taels of gold was still a considerable fortune for him. He didn't want to do so much only to end up benefiting others.

As for Tianze, there's no need to say more. Ji Wuye paid a heavy price to capture him alive.

The main reason Ji Wuye spared Tianze's life was to use him to restrain King Han An.

The person Han Wang An fears most is Tian Ze. If one day Han Wang An wants to discard him after he has served his purpose, Ji Wu Ye will release him.

After all, King Han An had really screwed over Tian Ze to the point of death. The prince of Baiyue was ruined and his country was destroyed because of King Han An.

If Tianze really escapes from the dungeon, he will definitely take revenge on King Han An at all costs.

Tianze is not only powerful, but he also has many extraordinary people under his command. The imperial guards of the Han royal palace will not be able to stop him at all. At that time, King An of Han will not be able to sleep peacefully.

Before dealing with the troublesome Tianze, even if King Han An was dissatisfied with Ji Wuye, he could only endure it for the time being.

This is called nurturing an enemy to enhance one's own importance!

Therefore, in Ji Wuye's mind, Tianze's importance even exceeded that of 100,000 taels of gold.

It's one thing for Yan Lingji to be rescued from the crystal cage, but if Tianze is also released from the dungeon, that would be a real problem.

Chapter 609 The Assassin Who Was Humiliated

next morning

After washing up, Suzuki Seimei, with Yan Lingji's help, took her for a stroll around Xinzheng City.

Since Yan Lingji had only recently regained her freedom, she quite enjoyed shopping.

Yan Lingji followed Suzuki Seimei with a smile, enjoying various delicious snacks and picking out interesting trinkets from street stalls.

However, with such a stunning beauty as Yan Lingji around, it's inevitable that a lot of trouble will arise.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Ouch!"

Many pedestrians were attracted by Yan Lingji's stunning beauty, staring at her blankly for a long time, and then bumped into other pedestrians.

Couples who went out shopping together were so angry when they saw that all the men were captivated by Yan Lingji that they broke up on the spot, leaving behind a mess.

=￣￣=

Looking at the pedestrians who had made a fool of themselves because of her, Yan Lingji felt no remorse whatsoever; instead, she revealed a gloating smile.

"She really is a femme fatale!"

Seeing this, Suzuki Seimei shook his head inwardly.

"what?"

Just as Suzuki Seimei was about to tell Yan Lingji to tone it down, he suddenly seemed to notice something, a playful look flashed in his eyes, and he led Yan Lingji toward a street with fewer pedestrians.

"Young Master, it seems we're being watched."

At first, Yan Lingji didn't notice, but as there were fewer and fewer pedestrians around, she also noticed several strange gazes.

"Then let's find a secluded spot and play with them."

While eating candied hawthorns, Suzuki Seimei led Yanlingji towards the deserted alley.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Just as the two reached the middle of the deserted alley, two figures blocked Suzuki Seimei and Yan Lingji's path, one in front and one behind.

The man blocking Suzuki Seimei and his companions was dressed in a black, form-fitting outfit with a fluffy black feather shawl, exuding a cold and dangerous aura.

The person blocking Suzuki Seimei and his group's retreat was a young man with a youthful and handsome face and short blue-purple hair.

From the black and white attire of the two people blocking the way, and the large "Check-in Available" sign floating above their heads, Suzuki Seimei instantly recognized them as Mo Ya and Bai Feng from the "Hundred Birds" organization.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Several "Hundred Birds" assassins dressed in tight-fitting suits appeared on the walls on both sides of the alley, blocking all of Suzuki Seimei's escape routes.

Confident of his victory, Mo Ya said in a somewhat amused tone, "The General requests your presence at the General's residence."

Last night, Mo Ya, on Ji Wuye's orders, led a group to check the location where the military pay was hidden, only to find that all the guards watching over the pay had been killed, and 100,000 taels of gold had vanished.

When Ji Wuye learned of this bad news, he was furious and killed several servants in a fit of rage.
