In Conan, the shrine is inherited

It is true that Mika Taniguchi did some bad things, but she did not do them in a bad way or with bad character.

Soul energy is just an ordinary one.

But he had to absorb it no matter how little it was. To be promoted to a junior Yin-Yang Master, he needed fifty souls. Two of the three souls he had absorbed before were evil people, and their soul energy was much greater than that of ordinary souls.

Manager Yamazaki's portion was for one person, and the victim on the roller coaster was for two people, but Ye Qiuxin used them as soul containers, and there was still enough for one person left inside.

Boss Manaka is amazing, one of his souls is worth three souls.

All in all, it is five soul shares.

Including the soul of Mika Taniguchi now, there are six in total. He still needs forty-four souls to be promoted to a junior Yin-Yang Master.

The road is long and long.

Chapter 39 My family is quite big

The evidence collection at the crime scene has been completed.

Inspector Megure left a few police officers behind to do the final finishing work, and then ordered the team to withdraw, take Toya Eiko out, and prepare to escort her back to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Ye Qiuxin, Conan, Maori Ran, Maori Kogoro and others were standing at the gate.

Next to them stood Toya Eiko, who was handcuffed.

Maori Kogoro said in a deep voice: "Teacher Toya, I didn't expect that our first meeting would turn out like this. Now that things have come to this, I don't know what to say. I can only hope that you will serve your sentence well in prison. When you are released from prison, your clothes will surely become fashionable again."

Ye Qiuxin glanced at Maori Kogoro in surprise.

He didn't expect Uncle Maori to be so clear about right and wrong. He thought that as a fan of Toya Eiko, the uncle would make a fuss for a while. But then again, he was a former criminal policeman after all, so he still had some professional ethics.

Conan was also extremely surprised. He also thought that Kogoro Mouri would cry and make a fuss.

"Thank you." Toya Eiko smiled bitterly, "Xiaolan, I also want to apologize to you. Maybe you won't believe the words of a murderer, but I sincerely invite you to be a model, but the current Ashiya brand is obviously not worthy of you.

"I'm sorry I can't wear pretty clothes for a girl as healthy as you."

"Thank you, Mr. Toya." Ran Mouri wiped her eyes and bowed deeply.

Toya Eiko nodded and said nothing more. Then she was taken into a police car by the police officers. The sirens sounded, red and blue lights flashed, and one police car after another drove away and disappeared around the corner of the road.

Ye Qiu watched all this unfold and felt a little tired. "Alas, I have worked in vain. I have to go to another clothing company to customize the witch costume later."

"Brother Qiu Xin, I wanted to ask this before." Conan raised his hand, his curiosity soaring. "Your home is a shrine, don't you have enough shrine maiden costumes for you to use? Why did you specially order new ones? Is there any other intention?"

"Why are you talking so much, little boy? Go home quickly!" Kogoro Mouri was furious.

Mao Lilan said: "I am curious too."

Maori Kogoro's expression changed quickly, "Then let's listen to it and then go back. Think about it carefully. The next bus will not arrive for some time."

Conan: "..."

He pursed his lips, stared at Maori Kogoro, and roared in his heart: Uncle Maori, you are not targeting me on purpose? I was thinking about helping you clear the grievances of "Kogoro who pretended to sleep" not long ago!

"Is it inconvenient to say?" asked Mao Lilan.

"Haha, it's not inconvenient." Ye Qiuxin laughed. Uncle Maori's face-changing trick was too wonderful, and he couldn't help laughing. "I just can't find my old shrine maiden costume. I never paid attention to the operation of the shrine before, and I can't even remember the names of the employees there.

“After my parents passed away, I abandoned myself for a while.

"By the time I realized it, the shrine and its employees had nothing to do with me anymore."

As he spoke, the smile on his face disappeared. "Now that we have taken back the shrine, we find that there is nothing inside. No one dares to touch anything except my parents' things. The personal belongings of the employees, such as those clothes, are probably taken away by themselves."

"So I even had to customize the shrine maiden's clothes. Tsk, how should I put it..." Ye Qiuxin forced a smile, "It's probably in a state of disrepair, anyway, I am confident that I can build the shrine.

"It would be a novelty to customize a few new shrine maiden costumes."

"That will be hard for a while." Kogoro Mori sighed.

"Yeah, I haven't even recruited a priestess yet. Maybe I will have to perform on stage myself during the opening ceremony." Ye Qiuxin shrugged.

Go on stage yourself?

Conan blinked his eyes, staring at Ye Qiuxin's face, thinking evilly: Is Ye Qiuxin going to wear a witch costume to receive guests? After a closer look, he found that Ye Qiuxin was quite handsome and was definitely good at dressing up as a woman.

Thinking of that strange scene, Conan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This smile attracted Ye Qiuxin's attention. He looked at Conan who quickly pretended to be a good boy. He felt that this kid hadn't said anything good. Should he give him a good beating to vent his anger?

At this moment, Mao Lilan suddenly said: "Mr. Ye, if you only need a shrine maiden on the opening day, I might be able to help."

"You?" Ye Qiu was puzzled.

Conan and Maori Kogoro also stuck their heads out, looking inquiring.

"Well, I can ask some friends from my class and senior and junior students from the club to come and help. This way, you don't have to spend extra money to recruit them, and it can also be considered as experiencing the life of a shrine maiden for a day." said Mao Lilan.

Ye Qiuxin was stunned for a moment, "Is this appropriate?"

"Of course it's appropriate. Mr. Ye, don't you want to pay the salary?" Mao Lilan chuckled.

"No, no, no, ah no, I mean I will definitely pay them." Ye Qiuxin was almost moved to tears. He really understood what friendship between classmates was and why Mao Lilan was called Angel Lan. "As long as you can invite them, the price is negotiable. It doesn't need to be too many. About five people will be enough."

"By the way, it's better if their body shapes are similar, otherwise I'm afraid the clothes won't fit them," he reminded.

"Don't worry." Mao Lilan nodded.

Later, Ye Qiuxin told Mao Lilan the address of Yuehua Shrine. On the opening day, he could just ask the students who worked as part-time shrine maidens to come over. The matter of recruiting shrine maidens was thus settled.

"Okay, Ran, it's time for us to leave too." Seeing that the two had finished their conversation, Kogoro Mouri snorted a little unhappily.

He was a bit stingy at first, all because of a few statements made by Toya Eiko when she confessed her guilt, saying something like 'I didn't expect that Ye Qiuxin would be the first to discover the truth', as if she was saying that he, a famous detective, was no match for a high school exorcist.

Now Ye Qiuxin and Mao Lilan were chatting and ignoring him, which made him even more dissatisfied.

Conan also snorted, put his hands in his pockets, and pulled his little face.

After saying goodbye for the last time, Ran Mouri left with Kogoro Mouri and Conan.

Ye Qiu was so grateful that he decided to give Mao Lilan's friends a little more salary. He could still afford this little money. He took out a phone book from his pocket, which contained the addresses and contact information of many clothing design companies.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan, otherwise he would have wasted more time.

After making the appointment over the phone, Ye Qiuxin was ready to rush to the clothing company to discuss it, but found that Inspector Megure was standing not far away and did not go to the Metropolitan Police Department with the other police cars.

Inspector Megure noticed Ye Qiuxin's gaze and waved from afar, apparently having something to say to him.

Ye Qiuxin walked over with doubt in her eyes, "What do you want to talk to me about? Inspector Megure."

"Brother Qiu Xin, you are here." Inspector Megure smiled kindly, "I really have something to trouble you with, so I want to discuss it with you." He paused, "I wonder if you have paid attention to the recent news, brother Qiu Xin, about a detective being kidnapped."

Ye Qiuxin glanced up and recalled, "I have some impression. It seems that his girlfriend was also kidnapped, right?"

"Yes, this detective is my subordinate. He is a very good shooter and has won an Olympic medal before." Inspector Megure said, "The details are that some gang members kidnapped the detective's girlfriend and threatened the detective to snipe a congressman who was tough on gangs and caused them heavy losses.

“But during the training, Conan and his friends happened to discover their actions.

"It was finally resolved smoothly."

"It's Conan again." Ye Qiuxin complained lightly, "But... Inspector Megure, your words have confused me a little. I can't figure out what you are trying to say. I respect you very much. As long as I can solve it, I will definitely help you solve it.

"So just tell me what you want to say."

"Okay, I'll be frank then." Inspector Megure put his hand on his fat belly embarrassedly, "Uh... my subordinate was suspended by his superior because of this unfortunate incident.

"His life has been a bit poor lately, and his girlfriend is pregnant, so he's having a hard time."

"I just want to ask Brother Qiu Xin... are you in need of a driver or bodyguard?" Inspector Megure said expectantly, "He is very capable."

"Ah..." Ye Qiuxin raised his eyebrows, and his mind suddenly became clear.

It seems that Inspector Megure is here to find a job for his subordinates. I don't know what he was thinking, but he actually found a job for me.

This really made him laugh and cry, and he quickly said, "Inspector Megure, I won't hide it from you. You may think I'm rich, but it's just a false appearance. I recently paid a tax of more than 80 million yen, and the shrine is about to open. There are places to spend money everywhere, and there is not much money left in my bankbook.

"You can check all of this. I really don't have much money."

It was like the daily salary of a witch, so he settled it easily.

But this was a job that Inspector Megure had asked him to do, and Ye Qiuxin was too embarrassed to give the suspended police officer a low salary. Was he going to tell him: This is just a small salary for a month, do it if you want to, and get out if you don't dare? Ah?

It would be better to refuse, so that everyone won’t lose face.

"No, no, no, brother Akishin, you misunderstood." Inspector Megure waved his hand, "I have discussed it with him. What Koichi meant, uh, his name is Yamabe Koichi, Koichi meant that as long as the work is easy and meals are provided, it doesn't matter if the salary is a little low.

"You don't know how they've been living lately. Even their pregnant girlfriend has to work to help support the family, which makes people feel very sorry for her.

"A group of my colleagues and I discussed whether to donate privately, but Haoyi refused. He is just like that, stubborn and strong-willed. We couldn't persuade him. But for the sake of his girlfriend's health, he still contacted me and wanted me to help him find a less stressful job."

"I just thought of you, Brother Akishin." Inspector Megure said with a smile, "I know you very well. The workload at the shrine is not too heavy. I think it is a good fit for him. So I want to ask Brother Akishin if you need a bodyguard or driver."

"I see, that's no problem." Ye Qiu thought for a moment, "Being my bodyguard and driver is indeed quite relaxing, and his girlfriend can also come over and be a witch or something, the workload is not too heavy.

"The salary is really low, but food and accommodation can be provided at the shrine. My house is quite big, with many empty rooms."

He added: "The salary will definitely be raised in the future."

In fact, Ye Qiuxin doesn’t need either a bodyguard or a driver.

But in order to do Inspector Megure a favor, it doesn't matter if I agree to it. It can also add some popularity to the shrine, so just come.

"It's a deal. I'd like to thank you on behalf of Koichi." Inspector Megure was overjoyed. "I'll let Koichi and his girlfriend report to your shrine tomorrow. I hope you have a pleasant discussion."

"Haha, of course." Ye Qiuxin told Inspector Megure Yuehua's address, and then the two said goodbye.

If everything goes well tomorrow, he will also have subordinates.

***

Noon, Yuehua Shrine.

Ye Qiuxin first went to another clothing design company, stated his customization requirements, signed a contract, and then hurried to the municipal department to connect water and electricity to the shrine.

After a busy period, it was already noon.

But there is still enough time.

Ye Qiuxin walked to a room in the shrine. This was a room he had just cleaned up and used as a display room. As for what to put in it...

He pushed open the door and walked in. There was a picture of hell hanging on the wall. The content of the painting was a bloody knight and a slain demon. It was the magic weapon: Heavenly Punishment. This morning, he contacted the art museum and asked them to send the Heavenly Punishment over.

Looking at this picture of hell, Ye Qiu felt so happy in his heart.

The level of the Heavenly Punishment was not high, only elementary, and it was not an ancient artifact that had been passed down for thousands of years. He could see that the Heavenly Punishment was just a modern work, and it was not created by a cultivator, but was purely a magical instrument created by an ordinary person by chance.
