Ke Xue exorcists demons and starts with immobilization

"It's possible...it's very possible..."

"We still need to ask the older man for information..."

Chapter 22 The Money Power of a Tycoon's Daughter (Copy)

Upon arriving at Teitan High School, Chu Zhong temporarily separated from Ran Mouri and went to the teachers' office to report to his homeroom teacher.

I took a short walk around the campus with my homeroom teacher and received my school uniform and books.

When it was almost time, I went to the classroom, gave a brief self-introduction, and officially became a member of the class.

"Take that seat."

The homeroom teacher pointed to a corner of the classroom, to a window seat where no one was sitting.

That was the spot that Chu personally chose when using the props.

That was also Shinichi Kudo's original spot.

It was located behind Ran Mouri.

"Teacher, if Kudo comes tomorrow, where should we sit?"

In the classroom, a student who was quite close to Shinichi Kudo spoke up.

"Sit there? Sit in the office!"

The homeroom teacher said irritably, "He's fallen so far behind in his studies. If he doesn't go to the office and study hard, who will have time to catch up with him?!"

Shinichi Kudo has been skipping classes for quite some time now, and it's been especially frequent this semester.

As for the title of "Number One High School Detective in Sakura Country" bestowed upon him by some newspapers, while it has a certain promotional effect on Teitan High School, it is also a kind of pressure.

If this top high school detective fails his exam, Teitan High School will be ridiculed.

Seeing that their homeroom teacher was angry, none of the students dared to mention the seating arrangement again.

Jingle Bell--!

After the school bell rang, the math teacher walked up to the podium.

Chu Zhong flipped through his textbook.

As expected, after learning how to freeze, her ability to understand textbook knowledge greatly improved.

Chu Zhong also discovered that the courses before his transmigration were several times more difficult and stressful than those in the Cherry Blossom Country before him.

Simply put, the exam knowledge he possesses far exceeds the current teaching scope.

However, Chu Zhong wasn't there to attend class.

All you need is a legal household registration identity.

To avoid appearing suspicious during future investigations, or even being deported.

On the first day of school, I definitely have to report for duty.

From now on, it depends on my mood.

Open the dungeon list:

Ran Mouri (Demon King level), available attempts today: 0

Sonoko Suzuki (Boss Level): 1 attempt available today.

I never expected that Sonoko was a leader-level being.

Why?

Money power?

Chu Zhong could hardly think of any other reason.

However, since Conan was able to be rated as a Demon King by the system thanks to his deduction skills and cheat-like gadgets, Chu Zhong felt relieved.

This broken system is faulty to begin with, so there's no point in worrying about it.

Furthermore, higher dungeon difficulty means more rewards, which is a good thing.

With a thought,

[Deduct 1000 Spirit Essence, Suzuki Sonoko - Boss-level Dungeon activated]

Current Spiritual Energy: 37100

[Instance scenario under construction...]

All the students stood up at the same time.

The desks and podium sank down, disappearing into the floor; the walls of all the classrooms on the entire floor vanished.

Long banquet tables were raised, and the tables were set with a variety of exquisite Western foods, desserts, and fine wines that represented high society.

The students' school uniforms were all replaced with men's tailcoats, women's evening gowns, and general waiter uniforms.

The classroom where a class was in session was transformed into a banquet venue in just a few breaths.

The ceiling disappeared, but the floor kept rising.

The five-story teaching building grew like a tree, rising straight up to more than 30 stories, a skyscraper a hundred meters high.

The floor where Chu Zhong was located became the top floor.

This is a grand banquet party held on a spacious rooftop!

Under the bright sunshine, the colors at the banquet were exceptionally vibrant, yet the heat did not feel intense.

Everyone at the banquet was frozen in place.

Except for Chuzhong.

[Players available for team play. Shall we team up to challenge the dungeon?]

[Selectable Team Member: Demon King Level - Ran Mouri]

There's actually such a thing as teaming up to run dungeons?

Out of curiosity, Chu Zhong selected team members.

Adding a Demon King-level member, Ran Mouri, requires 5000 Spirit Essence. Discount: 20%, actual cost 4000 Spirit Essence.

[Demon King-level team members will provide a 20% bonus to rewards and item drop rate]

The price is shockingly high.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

After all, he possesses the combat power of a demon king, making him a top-tier external aid.

Chu Zhong was even more curious as to why there was a 20% discount.

Does this mean that the better your relationship with your teammates, the higher the discount?

[Countdown to the official opening of the dungeon: 10, 9, 8...]

To satisfy his curiosity, Chu Zhong finally clicked 'Confirm Team Formation'.

With a helper, it should be easier to get the highest rating, plus rewards and drop bonuses!

[Successfully teamed up with Demon King-level Ran Mouri! 4000 Spirit Essence deducted]

Current Spiritual Energy: 33100

"Tch, not a match for them. What a pity."

As Ran Mouri's somewhat displeased voice rang out from behind, Chu Zhong was lightly patted on the back of the waist. "What a waste of a golden attacking opportunity."

This teammate is actually Xiao Lan from the dungeon! Not the real-life one!

Chu Zhong's lips twitched slightly, his expression a mixture of joy and worry.

Xiao Lan in the dungeon is indeed stronger in combat...

But she's a martial arts fanatic!

[Dungeon Challenge Officially Open!]

As the system notification sounded, the banquet officially began.

A prominent stage slowly rises from one side of the spacious rooftop.

Even more eye-catching is the crystal throne in the center of the stage, its edges as sharp as if cut by ice. When sunlight shines down, thousands of rainbows are refracted from inside the crystal.

Sonoko, dressed in her finest attire, sat on the slightly extravagant crystal throne. Her custom-made evening gown accentuated her youthful curves, exuding elegance without being overtly revealing.

The headband that used to conceal her good looks is gone, and her bangs fall naturally, covering her forehead and drawing more attention to her delicate features.

His indifferent gaze and slightly raised chin added to his air of authority.

Compared to the carefree, infatuated Sonoko of the past, the woman before us seemed more like the future heiress of the Suzuki Group and a wealthy heiress.

Sonoko's gaze swept across the scene.

Among the guests, two figures dressed in Teitan High School's dark blue uniforms stood out conspicuously amidst the formal attire.

"Someone actually attended a banquet without formal attire? How rude!"

Sonoko frowned slightly, elegantly waved her elegant fan, and said in a cool voice, "Security! Get them out of here!"

Gave an order,

The waiters in the hall all gathered around Chu Zhong and Mao Lilan.

The students playing the roles of guests all retreated, their faces wary, their wine glasses raised as if they were hand grenades.

[Current objective: Capture Sonoko Suzuki without being kicked out of the banquet]

Chu Zhong was located at least 20 meters away from the garden, with countless guests in between.

And waiters kept gathering around.

"It seems the only option is to fight!"

"Xiao Lan, remember to protect me!"

Chu Zhong, without any hesitation, hid behind Ran Mouri.

At the same time, I'm glad that we found some outside help for this dungeon.

The immobilization spell is indeed powerful, but it can only control one target at a time.

Now that we have a demon king-level bodyguard, capturing Sonoko will be a piece of cake...

?

"You dare to resist? How naive!"

Sonoko sneered and lightly waved her elegant fan in the air:

"Today I'll show you the Suzuki Group's security capabilities, which amount to a full 100 million yen!"

Countless streams of light flew out from the fan, each one attaching itself to a waiter's body.

In Chu Zhong's eyes, these waiters all had blood bars flashing above their heads.

The good news is that these waiters only have 30,000 health points.

The bad news is...

Deposit strength: 1 million yen

look up,

Chu Zhong saw his savings and fighting power: 0

"Why is my power draining away?!"

Ran Mouri exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing this, Chu felt a chill run down his spine. He looked up and...

Ran Mouri, Deposit and Combat Strength: 0
