Conan had a sullen look on his face, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Damn it, it’s obvious that Ye Qiuxin’s level of reasoning is not even worthy of carrying his shoes. It’s basically a replica of Maori’s random guessing style of reasoning, but damn, how come he guessed every one of them right?
If you say Kubota is the murderer, then he is the murderer; if you say there is a frame-up, then there is a frame-up; if you say there is a disguise, then there is a disguise.
Well, whatever you say is what it is.
But Ye Qiuxin's reasoning was just a guess, and the key chain of evidence was insufficient to convict on the spot. Conan had just found a piece of evidence that was enough to confirm Kubota Yuji's identity as the murderer, but the recorder suddenly popped out by itself.
The truth of the case has come to light and there is no need for further reasoning.
Conan was really about to vomit blood. He hadn't even shown his prowess yet, so how come the case was already over?
Ye Qiuxin blinked his eyes. He could even sense Conan's resentful look. He wondered in his heart, "I didn't do anything to you, why are you looking at me like that? It's so disgusting."
Damn, are you still looking? If you keep looking at me, I'm going to come over and rub your head!
Ye Qiuxin glared back.
"Brother Akishin, thank you for this time too." Inspector Megure came over to thank him, "Thank you for your persistence before, which allowed our police to not arrest the wrong person." He turned his head and said, "Director Ochiai, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of the police officers in this operation."
"It's okay. This time it's all thanks to Lord Akixin." Director Ochiai said.
"Inspector Megure, you don't have to be so polite, we are all acquaintances." Ye Qiuxin shrugged, "I think even if I'm not here this time, Detective Maori can still catch the murderer.
"You see, he has already assumed the same posture as last time at Miss Yoko's house, but he has not stated his reasoning."
"Brother Maori..." Inspector Megure glanced at Maori Kogoro who was still sleeping, and after thinking about it, he still felt that it was unreliable. He smacked his lips and decided to skip this topic. He turned around and said, "Brother Akishin, this time, in addition to thanking you, I also came to remind you to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to take a statement. Of course, Director Ochiai must come with you. Well, brother Maori, and you.
"Okay, we have to pack up now, so we won't bother you any more."
After saying that, Inspector Megure turned and left.
Conan was confused.
What does this mean? This is too perfunctory. I was just about to say something.
Ye Qiu was distracted for a moment, "By the way, Director Ochiai, I really have something to tell you."
"Oh?" Director Ochiai was puzzled. "Is it a matter of heavenly punishment?"
"No, no, no, it's something else." Ye Qiuxin planned to remove the knight's phantom on Director Ochiai, otherwise his life span would be shortened. "Can you arrange a quiet room? It's best if only the two of us know about this."
***
Art Museum, Director's Office.
Ye Qiuxin placed his hand on Director Ochiai's shoulder and infused it with a bit of pure magic power. A sacred and ethereal shadow of armor suddenly emerged, covering every part of Director Ochiai's body, and a long sword was faintly grasped in his hand.
"Director Ochiai, you saw it." He continued to maintain his mana output.
"Of course, but this is..." Director Ochiai was shocked when he saw the abnormality on his body. He could feel that under the cover of the armor's phantom, his whole mind and body were different.
It was as if he was really the knight of justice who slew the devil.
"There are two individuals in the Heavenly Punishment: the Knight and the Devil. Kubota Yuji is the Devil in the painting, and you are the Knight in the painting."
"Knight? The knight of justice?"
"Well, this is the effect of the heavenly punishment on you." Ye Qiuxin retracted his magic power, and the shadow of the armor dissipated. "Director Luohe, I will not hide it from you. I specifically told you this in order to remove the power of the heavenly punishment from you."
"Why?" Director Ochiai asked involuntarily. He didn't want the knight to leave him.
"Ordinary people have to pay a price for using the power of the dark world." Ye Qiuxin explained patiently, "The nature of the heavenly punishment is not gentle. If you live with the Knight Shadow, your life span will definitely be shortened.
"To put it bluntly, if this continues for a long time, he might even die suddenly."
"Then can't I be like you, Lord Qiu Xin?" Director Ochiai still refused to give up.
"I'm sorry, it's impossible." Ye Qiuxin shook his head. "My inheritance is a family inheritance, more strictly speaking, it is a soul inheritance, which cannot be obtained through learning. In this Dharma Ending Age, if you want to obtain the power of the dark world, you must have talent.
“From what I’ve observed, you don’t have this talent.
"And...you're sixty-seven."
Director Ochiai sighed dejectedly, "Is there really no hope... Master Qiu Xin, Tian Fa is my most beloved child, this is her favor to me."
"Then I can only tell you that the impact of the heavenly punishment on you is absolutely negative. It has already affected your psychology." Ye Qiuxin said bluntly, "I can tell that what Kubota said at the end was true. You really want to kill Boss Manaka. You can't think this is a good thing."
"But I am a knight of justice." Director Ochiai was bewildered.
"But you are also the director of the art museum." Ye Qiuxin thought of a perfect reason to persuade him. "If you die, who will take care of the artworks here? Tianfa is your most precious child, but the others are not your children anymore, right?"
Director Ochiai was silent for a very long time.
Finally, he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, you are right, Master Qiu Xin."
Chapter 31 Holy Ghost
"Have you figured it out?" Ye Qiuxin asked.
"Well." Director Ochiai seemed to have aged a bit, with a helpless smile on his face, "I was too obsessed with becoming the righteous knight, but I ignored the original meaning of the heavenly punishment. Although the devil was killed by the knight, the knight himself was also baptized by the devil's blood, which means that he himself was also contaminated by the devil.
"If I killed Boss Manaka with my own hands, I wouldn't regret it."
"But on my way, there will be an equally righteous knight waiting for me. Lord Akishino, it was you who saved me from committing a big mistake and from staining me with the blood of the devil." Director Ochiai bowed solemnly, "Please remove the punishment from me. There are many children waiting for me in the art museum."
"Okay, please wait a moment." Ye Qiuxin nodded in awe. Facing an old man who had devoted his life to art, he really couldn't afford to put on airs.
He closed his eyes for a moment, the magic power in his body flowed, and he performed a Yin-Yang magic.
Yin and Yang magic: exorcism!
One of the core spells of Yin Yang Tianshi, it dispels all non-directly offensive dark world energy and renders it ineffective. It can also be attached to jade, peach wood and other objects to form a talisman to drive away Yin and ghost energy, and the effect can last for half a year.
Once the energy is depleted, it can be recharged.
The effect of heavenly punishment is equivalent to a curse, and can be easily resolved through the effects of Yin-Yang magic and exorcism.
A ray of illusory black and white light shot out from Ye Qiuxin's fingertips and landed on Director Ochiai. The shadow of a knight then appeared, once again covering every inch of his body tightly. He held the sword in his right hand and twisted his wrist slightly, as if he would swing it out in the next second.
Ye Qiuxin smiled slightly and didn't care.
If it was a backlash from a mid-level or higher magical weapon, he would probably be frightened for a while given his entry-level Yin-Yang Taoist priest level, but the Heavenly Punishment was at most a primary magical weapon, and just a phantom of a knight, not the magical weapon itself.
This resistance is meaningless and will ultimately be in vain.
Just as Ye Qiu thought in his heart, the knight's shadow simply twisted his wrist a few times and couldn't even lift it up. After a few seconds, the entire shadow disappeared into thin air and ceased to exist.
The influence of the divine punishment completely disappeared from Director Ochiai.
Director Ochiai felt his body lighten, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he looked at his hands blankly, "Master Qiu Xin, I..." Is that all? Is that all?
According to the exorcism stories he had seen in movies and novels, exorcists were supposed to use a variety of messy and complicated methods and take a lot of effort to exorcise demons, evil spirits and the like.
And I almost lost half my life, even if I didn't die, I was not far from death.
But how come nothing happened? I felt much more relaxed.
Director Ochiai found this a little unreal when he thought about it.
"Don't worry, you are fine. You can go back to the museum and be with your children without any worries." Ye Qiuxin saw what Director Ochiai was thinking at a glance, "I am a genuine Yin-Yang master. How can I be the same as the exorcist in movies and novels?"
"So that's what you mean..." Director Ochiai suddenly realized and nodded slowly.
"Director Ochiai, the art museum murder case has been closed, and the curse you suffered has also been removed by me." Ye Qiuxin's voice subconsciously became a little lower, and he asked expectantly, "That day's punishment..."
Director Ochiai stroked his white beard and smiled: "Of course, she is yours."
Ye Qiuxin's eyes widened, his mouth almost unable to close with joy, and he clapped his hands fiercely, "Okay! It's a deal! Don't regret it!"
***
After a while, it was already late at night.
Ye Qiuxin called Yamagishi Eiichi and said, "Hey, Mr. Yamagishi, can you come to the museum now? Yes, Miss Yoko and I have almost finished looking at it. You can just come over to discuss the contract. I don't understand your promotional methods, so you should come over."
"If you're busy, it's okay to talk a few days later. Hmm? What? Come over now, okay."
Less than two minutes after I hung up the phone, Yamagishi Eiichi came running over, patting his chest and saying, "Master Akishin, I already have a plan for the art museum's promotional activities. Please rest assured and leave it to me!"
Ye Qiu’s eyes almost popped out of his head.
Didn't you say you had to leave for something, and you were in a hurry to drive away, but why do you look like you're waiting on the street next to me?
But since everyone was here, he didn't plan to say much, he just nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Yamagishi."
During this period of time, Ye Qiuxin also briefly learned about Yoko Okino's astonishing popularity in Japan. She can be said to be the undisputed number one female star in the Japanese entertainment industry. She can be seen everywhere, as if Yoko Okino is the only female star in Japan.
Who would believe that Yamagishi Eiichi could become Yoko Okino's agent without some tricks? It's like the wonderful case of giving Fujie Akiyoshi a sum of money to get rid of Yoko Okino...
This matter should be discussed by professionals.
In this regard, he was 200% confident in Yamagishi Eiichi.
Then Ye Qiuxin put his hands behind his back, turned around, and left on his own.
Yamagishi Eiichi stared at Ye Qiuxin's back and asked doubtfully, "Yoko, this is about money, it would be more appropriate for Master Qiuxin to be there, right? Is it really appropriate for him to just leave like this?"
Do you treat money as dirt, or do you trust them wholeheartedly?
Okino Yoko smiled bitterly and nodded, "I think Master Qiu Xin has more important things to do."
"Something more important?" Yamagishi Eiichi didn't understand what could be more important than 45 million?
"Well, it's a painting called Heaven's Punishment." Okino Yoko briefly described the murder that happened in the art museum, "...Anyway, Master Akishin suddenly became very interested in Heaven's Punishment and even went to ask Director Ochiai for it."
Is this a punishment from heaven?
Yamagishi Eiichi didn't understand why Ye Qiuxin was interested in a painting.
But after listening to the whole story of the murder, he had only one thought in his mind...
That is, never offend people like Ye Qiuxin!
Boss Manaka angered Ye Qiuxin, and the next thing he did was that he was killed. He didn't even know who killed him. And then there was the unfortunate experience of Kubota Yuji... All these things were too much of a coincidence.
Maybe it was Ye Qiuxin who was secretly manipulating and leading to this result.
terrible……
Yamagishi Eiichi cast his eyes in fear in the direction where Ye Qiuxin left, and swore in his heart that he must launder the money as soon as possible!

Just like Yoko Okino said.
