Bai Jingjiu looked at the natural expressions of the three people and left with satisfaction...
Conan recalled the end, and became more sure of his guess - well, that's right, Shirai's pleasure started from that time.
It was the white cat girl who clearly scared them. Although Shiraijiu and Kudo Yusaku were also frightened when they confronted the white cat girl, it was also out of concern for Shiraijiu, but why does she look like "I am" now?
"I won"?
Really, as ignorant as ever.
…
At the same time, in the huge villa deep in the woods around Ekoda, in the girl's room, the red-haired witch faced the magic mirror and performed divination once a day.
"Mirror, Mirror, Mr. Mirror, who is the most beautiful person in the world?"
Opposite the red-haired witch, a beautiful woman's figure appeared on the smooth mirror, and she made a flattering voice: "Of course that is you, Hongzi-sama."
"All the men around you are the prisoners of Lord Hongzi."
"Except for one man..."
The red-haired witch lady, who was covering her mouth and about to laugh wildly, stopped laughing in embarrassment, "Ah, who is that person?"
"Kidd the Phantom Thief."
With a bang, a hard object hit the mirror, and countless cracks suddenly appeared in the mirror.
"Damn it! You are saying this to me again! Who is Kaitou Kidd!" The red-haired witch turned around, gritted her teeth, and called the butler over with a wave of her hand, "Find a way, no matter what, I have to do it
Let’s find out Kaitou Kid’s true identity!”
She wanted to see what kind of person could resist her Lord Hongzi's love magic!
"Oh, this beautiful lady, you seem to be a little troubled?"
Just when the housekeeper received the order and exited, and Miss Witch was left alone in the room, a deep and mellow uncle's voice suddenly came from the window behind her.
"Who!" The girl in the room turned around suddenly and looked over with a wary face.
In her field, it is impossible for anyone to approach her quietly without being discovered by her!
Opposite her, on a tree branch in the night outside the window, a middle-aged man wearing a black tuxedo and a top hat was sitting casually on the branch. He smiled and put his right index finger and middle finger together and raised them on his forehead to express his gratitude.
Said hello.
Okay, seems a bit handsome?
Hongzi raised his brows and raised his chin slightly to look arrogant, "What's your name? How did you get here? Tell me quickly!"
"Huhuhu~" The man couldn't help laughing, and then he looked up at the witch lady in the window, "Miss, I'm sorry, your magic can't work on me, so please act like you're facing me
It’s better to treat me like an ordinary intruder~”
"What..." Miss Witch was surprised, gritted her teeth, and looked at the cracked mirror angrily.
Mirror quickly explained: "Lord Hongzi, I did not lie to you. All the men around you except Kaitou Kidd are your prisoners."
"But the person in front of you is not a human being!"
not human?
Miss Witch turned her head in surprise and looked out the window at the handsome man in a black tuxedo with an elegant yet dangerous temperament.
Humph, I see, she just said, how could there be a man in the world who fell in love with her but who didn’t fall in love with her!
Miss Witch quickly accepted this setting and even breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, Miss Witch began to be more interested in this man-looking thing.
"So, who are you? What are you? And why do you come here to see me?"
"As expected of Miss Witch." The magician sighed and admired Hongzi's receptive ability. He changed his position and stood up from the branch, put his right hand on his chest, bent down and performed a gentleman's salute again, "Allow me to formally introduce myself.
"
"The name given to me by the master is Shirai Shou, and it is just one of the master's puppets that can act on its own. This time I took the liberty to visit Miss Witch, mainly because I have something to ask for."
"A puppet that can act on its own and have self-awareness?" Hongzi squinted his eyes.
She also has puppet-like abilities such as witch dolls and paper substitutes. However, just like the puppet in front of her, even if she looks carefully now, she looks like an ordinary human puppet. Hongzi thinks that she does not
This ability.
At least as far as the puppet is concerned, Hongzi is not as good as the master the puppet calls him.
However, what Hongzi is most interested in is not the puppet, but the master in the puppet's mouth.
As the most orthodox descendant of red magic, Hongzi has always known that the world rejects non-technical abilities, so gradually, capable people have had accidents one by one, or have aged with regret. Until now, until I saw this
Before the puppet died, she never met another capable person.
The puppet's master was the first and only capable person she had ever come into contact with, and Hongzi expressed a strong desire to meet him.
And the only one of his kind wants her help?
Does this need to be said? It must be... listen to it first and then talk about it!
"Tell me about it?" Hongzi reservedly maintained a noble and cool attitude, and did not expose the girl's excitement of meeting someone of the same kind for the first time. "If I'm interested, it's not impossible for me to help out a little bit.
"
"Huhuhu~ For Miss Witch, this matter is just a piece of cake." said the good-looking puppet outside.
But the more it said this, the more Hongzi looked forward to it.
I don’t know what kind of help it is... Helping to curse another witch? Fighting against the Holy Knights? Or fighting with Chinese Taoist priests? Or helping to refine a potion or two?
The magic potion is okay. As long as the formula and materials are provided, Hongzi can help refine it, but she is just a little witch in terms of fighting skills. She can play with ordinary people, but fighting skills is...
"I'm just asking Miss Witch to help bring Master's other puppet with her when she transfers to another school the day after tomorrow, and enters the second-year Class B of Ekoda High School."
Miss Witch:......
Tsk!
Koizumi Anko turned around and came to her bed, sat down, and crossed her legs elegantly, "Oh, this is indeed a small thing and there is nothing wrong with it, but Ekoda High School will soon be my territory. If your master wants to reach out, will you?"
Won’t you cross the line?”
"Huhuhu~" Sensing the displeasure of the witch lady opposite him, the magician smiled and did not care about such aggressive words. He was gentle and kind, and answered like a real elderly uncle coaxing a high school student.
He said, "Miss Witch, you and my master are equally noble, please don't compare yourself to animals."
The implication is, little sister, we are all people with abilities and status. Please don’t imitate this beastly behavior of turf-drawing. Thank you.
Koizumi Anko's hand on the bedside suddenly pulled the sheets hard.
Just an object!
A ball of fire appeared faintly in front of Koizumi Hongzi.
