Ke Xue exorcists demons and starts with immobilization

The two best friends immediately agreed.

Just as the three stopped chatting and were about to go to sleep,

Chu Zhong suddenly remembered something, "By the way, was Miss Horikoshi's room door unlocked?"

"Yes," Sonoko quickly gave an affirmative answer.

The hotel doors are all locked from the inside of the rooms.

Previously, the two best friends had stayed by Horikoshi Yumi's side after she took sleeping pills, as Chu Zhong had instructed, so they were able to lock the door from the inside.

Now that they are all with Chu Zhong, there is no one else in Horikoshi Yumi's room, so she naturally cannot lock it.

"How about..." Chu Zhong suggested, "we move Miss Horikoshi into the room as well."

After hearing this, the two best friends remained silent for several seconds.

"Lord Chu... don't go too far..."

Ran Mouri said with a hint of resentment, lightly pinching Chu Zhong's waist, "It's one thing to peep at Aunt Horikoshi in the hot spring, but to actually try to..."

Sonoko remained silent, neither objecting nor agreeing.

"Xiaolan, what are you thinking about?"

Chu Zhong was both annoyed and amused: "I'm just worried that bald guy might take the opportunity to do something wicked..."

"Besides, when it comes to looks, figure, and age, do you really need to worry about Ms. Horikoshi?"

It seems that not only is Xiao Lan, the martial arts fanatic in the game, but Xiao Lan in real life has also been somewhat overinfluenced.

"Who knows if you, Chu Jun, would like a mature type..."

Ran Mouri blushed and quietly explained the reason for the misunderstanding, "Besides...and we're no match for you..."

After spending these past few days together, the two best friends became even more certain that, with their combined strength, they were no match for Chu Zhong, who possessed extraordinary talent.

If Chu Zhong hadn't shown mercy and used his family's "special medicine" to help treat them, they might still be resting in their hotel room, let alone soaking in a hot spring.

So much so that when Chu Zhong mentioned moving Horikoshi Yumi into the room, the two best friends had a misunderstanding.

"But the bald man's regretful look didn't seem like he was acting."

Sonoko helped change the subject, "They wouldn't do anything so terrible, would they?"

"One should always be wary of others," Chu Zhong cautioned. "That bald man almost killed the old man; who knows if he's genuinely repenting or just begging for mercy?"

Why do the criminals in the Ke Xue Li only kneel down and weep in repentance after they have been arrested with conclusive evidence?

Isn't it because they've already been caught and can't deny it anymore?

The situation was similar for Nakamichi and Shi.

If he stubbornly resists, all that awaits Nakamichi and Shichi is to be beaten down by Ran, and then be taken to court and imprisoned.

Nakamichi Kazushi chose to play the victim and shed tears, which prevented Kogoro from pursuing the matter.

The more this happened, the more wary Chu Zhong became of the bald man.

"makes sense……"

Ran and Sonoko were quickly persuaded and agreed to Chu Zhong's suggestion.

The three of them got up again, turned on the lights, and went to Horikoshi Yumi's room.

"Something is wrong!"

Chu Zhong noticed a light coming from under the door... How could Horikoshi Yumi, who was fast asleep, possibly have the light on?

dong dong dong——!

He immediately banged on the door and told Xiaolan to be ready to ram it open at any time.

The result was a few seconds later.

Click——

The door was opened from the inside, and it was Horikoshi Yumi who opened it.

"Why are you still up so late? Is something the matter?"

Yumi Horikoshi yawned and asked in confusion.

"Oh, it's Aunt Horikoshi who's awake~" Ran Mouri breathed a sigh of relief.

Sonoko laughed and said, "Now you don't have to worry anymore~"

After saying that, the two best friends dragged Chu Zhong away.

"There's a problem..."

Chu Zhong frowned slightly and quickly walked back to her two best friends' room.

"What's the problem now?" Ran and Sonoko asked, puzzled.

Chu Zhong didn't answer, but quickly picked up the glasses arm that he had casually placed in the corner of the room and put it to his ear.

Ran and Sonoko were unaware that sleeping pills had been put in their beer.

However, judging from the conversation she overheard earlier, Horikoshi Yumi has a pretty good alcohol tolerance, so she must have guessed that she had been drugged.

Under normal circumstances, after Horikoshi Yumi wakes up, she should immediately ask who sent her back to her room, inquire about everyone's situation, and find out who is most likely to have drugged her.

Instead of acting nonchalant and asking them why they weren't asleep yet...

"...Yumi, you've been stringing me along for so many years, it's time to settle the score today."

Sure enough, a wicked laugh came from behind the glasses: "If you don't behave, hehe..."

Then came Horikoshi Yumi's somewhat flustered voice: "Kazushi, don't be impulsive, let's talk this out..."

"There's nothing to say!" Nakamichi Kazushi sneered. "I've pursued you for so many years, going to great lengths to please you, only to be rejected time and time again!"

"Now, it's time to recoup the principal and interest!"

"I just wanted to take advantage of you being drugged and have some fun with you..."

"If you have someone to blame, blame yourself for waking up at the worst possible time!"

Chapter 164 What a bold dog!

Ran and Sonoko both knew that Conan's glasses were actually listening devices, so when they saw Chu Zhong asking questions with a serious expression, they also moved closer.

The conversation, though soft, was incredibly clear in the quiet night.

"That bald jerk! He's a complete scumbag!"

Sonoko yelled, "First you ambushed the old man, and now you're trying to force yourself on Ms. Horikoshi!"

Ran Mouri, her face also contorted with anger, charged straight into Yumi Horikoshi's room.

Yuanzi and Chuzhong followed closely behind.

Bang-!

Then, Ran Mouri kicked open the flimsy door of the hotel room.

"!"

Inside the room, Horikoshi Yumi, who was about to unbutton her yukata, and Nakamichi Kazushi, who was holding a gun, were both startled by this sudden turn of events.

Ran Mouri, who rushed into the room, and Sonoko, who followed closely behind, were also startled by the dark-colored pistol.

At the same time, they realized that Horikoshi Yumi had been threatened with a gun and forced to cover for Nakamichi and Shichi so that they could leave.

"What happened?"

When Kogoro, who was on the third floor, heard the commotion and rushed downstairs, he saw his old classmate, whom he had just forgiven, pointing a gun at his daughter.

Conan also appeared at the door at this moment. Seeing the standoff with guns drawn, he immediately touched the tranquilizer watch on his wrist.

"Since you've caught me red-handed... then I won't hold back..."

Holding a gun, Nakamichi Kazushi smiled cruelly and confidently, his eyes filled with lewdness: "Ran, whatever Yumi does later, you just do the same."

"otherwise……"

As he spoke, the gun barrel dangled over Chu Zhong and Kogoro's heads.

They were actually threatening the lives of the two of them.

Chu Zhong sneered inwardly.

That bald guy, he's got some nerve...

"You dare! You! Right! and! Ambition?!"

Kogoro gritted his teeth and roared, clenching his fists, his eyes bulging with rage.

Nakamichi Kazushi immediately pointed his gun at Ran Mouri, saying, "Kogoro, don't be impulsive. Ran is so beautiful and sensible. It would be a pity if she died here."

Seeing his daughter held at gunpoint, her life hanging by a thread, Kogoro's pupils contracted, and his imposing manner instantly weakened. "Kazushi, you...you mustn't hurt Ran..."

"Hahahaha!" Nakamichi Kazushi laughed arrogantly: "Hit? I'm too busy cherishing you to worry about you, Kogoro. Don't worry, I'll definitely... Kid, you want to die?"

Halfway through his sentence, Nakamichi Kazushi aimed his gun at the person who walked straight into the room and shielded Ran Mouri behind him.

"Lord of Chu!" "Chu Central Region!"

Ran Mouri, Sonoko, and Kogoro couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Horikoshi Yumi's eyes widened as well.

As an active-duty detective, Kazushi Nakamichi's gun is definitely real, and his previous act of almost killing Kogoro proves that he is mentally unstable.

If he were to suddenly enter the room and agitate Nakamichi Kazushi, he could die in an instant.

"You're the one who's courting death."

Chu Zhong looked calmly at Zhongdao and Zhi's bald heads that reflected the light, "If you dare to fire, be prepared to spend the rest of your life in jail."

"So what?" Nakamichi Kazushi sneered. "Yumi, Ran, and that garden—I can enjoy them all!"

As they spoke, Nakado and Shi aimed their guns at Chu Zhong's heart. "And you, you brat who's dreaming of being a hero and saving the damsel in distress, will die in an instant."

Kogoro also spoke up, "Chu Zhong, don't be impulsive..."

"Lord Chu..." Yuanzi called softly, her voice filled with worry.

Sonoko had always thought that the hero saving the damsel in distress in TV dramas was very cool, but seeing her beloved in imminent danger today made her realize that it was a terrifying thing.

"..." Ran Mouri looked at the back of the figure blocking her way, her eyes filled with unease, but soon, a hint of understanding and anticipation flashed in her eyes.

Conan, who was standing by the door, frowned. His tranquilizer watch, which he had been aiming at Nakamichi Kazushi, was blocked by Chu Zhong's back as the two approached.

"Now I understand why Ms. Horikoshi is unwilling to accept you."

With a gun pointed at his vitals, Chu Zhong suddenly changed the subject, looking at Zhongdao and Zhi with a half-smile.

"Why?" Nakamichi Kazushi instinctively felt that something was wrong with what he said, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"Not a single hair is left on your head, you're so completely bald..." Chu Zhong mocked, "Your future children will probably be just like you, too ugly to find a girlfriend."

The moment those words were spoken, the air in the room froze.

Everyone couldn't help but doubt their ears. Faced with a death threat, Chu Zhong not only didn't back down, but instead started cursing?!

Nakamichi Kazushi, who was already self-conscious about his hair loss, suddenly had a violent glint in his eyes.

The finger resting on the trigger pulled back...

And Chu Zhong had been waiting for this moment!

Certainly! Certainly!

After the two immobilization spells were cast, everyone inside and outside the room was frozen in place, along with the bullets that were about to be fired from the guns.

Chu Zhong quickly adjusted his stance, as did the hand holding the gun...

In reality, handguns have limited lethality. With the protection of a gold-plated suit, it's not impossible to take bullets head-on... it's just too outrageous to the average person and not something to be shown in public.

We have to try a different approach...

boom--!

The moment the immobilization was lifted, a gunshot rang out.
