The event was several times more popular than in the morning, with most people coming for the finals, though the semi-finals were also quite popular.
Akatsuka entered the arena wearing Hattori Heiji's protective gear, including a mask, chest protector, and waist protector, and stood in the preparation area holding a bamboo sword.
"I hope it won't be Akaso-san's turn to play," Toyama Kazuha muttered to himself from the stands.
Hattori Shizuka curled her lip and said, "Their general is the highly anticipated swordsmanship genius Okita Souji. He even injured Heiji in the last match. If an Onmyoji were to participate, it would be a disgrace."
Kazuha Toyama was startled and hurriedly stood up.
"I'll go and call him back..."
"It's too late. If he withdraws now, his cheating will be discovered. Not only will his grades be canceled, but he'll become a laughingstock in all the schools, and maybe even the reputation of the Onmyoji will be damaged..."
Hattori Shizuka said calmly.
"Then, what should we do?" Toyama Kazuha regretted it so much she wanted to cry.
"What can we do? We can only let him endure the pain and take a few hits."
Hattori Shizuka's lips curled slightly, revealing an expression of waiting to see a good show.
Gymnasium swimming pool changing rooms.
After receiving the news, Officer Otaki of the Osaka Prefectural Police Station arrived at the scene to handle the case. This flat-headed uncle was a subordinate of Kazuha's father, Superintendent Toyama, and he had a good relationship with Hattori and had a very gentle personality.
"The deceased had wounds all over his body from being slashed by a Japanese sword, and the body was soaked in hot water, which was probably to obscure the estimated time of death."
Detective Ōtaki approached the body to examine it. His appearance, carrying a Japanese sword, made him seem as if he had traveled back to ancient times. This kind of case is really rare.
"Is he your classmate?" Otaki turned around and asked several college students.
"Yes, yes, we were classmates in college."
"We waited at the venue for a long time but he didn't come, so we looked everywhere for him, and then..."
The university students, like other 2.7 schools participating in the Kendo team competition, each had five members.
The vanguard saw that the historian was the deceased.
The man at the secondary front, Gu Feng, has a rough appearance, a big nose and a big mouth and looks very ferocious.
The core player, Doguchi Kiyuki, is just a little fat guy wearing glasses. He helped to mediate when the teammates had a quarrel before.
The deputy general, Shun Otegawa, is a young man with a long face and a side parting.
The final general, Hakamada Masamichi, was a tall, short-haired man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was a very dignified leader among the few people.
“In short,” Inspector Ōtaki said, picking up his katana, “if we can find out who owned this murder weapon, we’ll immediately know who the killer is.”
Chapter 457 Hattori Shizuka felt a little heartbroken.
“Then you’re mistaken, Officer Otaki,” Hattori interrupted from the doorway.
"That sword was the real sword that the kendo teacher used for demonstrations during this kendo competition. I just asked him, and he said that the sword went missing before noon and hasn't been found yet."
"Heiji?" Otaki asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to compete."
"Speaking of which, today is indeed the Kinki Kendo Tournament for high school and university students. But shouldn't you be over there at the competition venue?"
In the semi-finals, Akazuka Kaze did not get a chance to play.
The first few alone won.
"Great!" Kazuha clenched her fist excitedly. "Even without Heiji, we can still win! At this rate, the championship will be ours..."
Boom!
Heavy impact sounds came from the adjacent arena.
Okita suddenly thrust forward, striking his opponent in the face with a 29-point attack. As the bamboo sword flew, the opponent's mask was also knocked off by the force.
The athlete fell heavily onto the wooden floor of the arena, losing a tooth and being forced to retire.
One strike wins.
"Kyoto Izumi High School wins!!"
The venue erupted in an instant, everyone amazed by Okita's powerful presence.
The instant kill, especially in the semi-finals, caused the eyes of the girls who were nearby to turn into hearts.
"So handsome!"
Okita exhaled lightly, removed his mask to wipe his sweat, and turned his gaze to Akatsuki Kaze, who had not removed his mask at all, and smiled gently.
Kazuha Toyama swallowed hard, suddenly feeling a little insecure.
"No, we definitely can't beat them at this level."
While waiting for the final, Toyama Kazuha, blushing, approached Akatsuka Kaze.
"Chichu Sang, it's all my fault. I've caused you so much trouble."
Chi Chufeng smiled and gently patted her head.
"Don't talk nonsense. How is Toyama Kazuha's matter troublesome? Just wait and see, I'll win you a championship."
"By the way, is the murder case outside still unsolved?"
"Probably not, I didn't ask."
Chi Chufeng thought for a moment and said, "Call the police officer in charge and tell him it was Kotegawa who did it, and that his method was like this... and the evidence is like this..."
beep.
The whistle sounded.
The finals have begun.
Kazuha Toyama could only return to the audience.
After she sat down, she took out her phone and called Officer Otaki.
Her father was the head of the criminal investigation department of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, so of course he knew the phone number.
“It’s too late to call now,” Hattori Shizuka said from the side. “Even if Heiji came now, he wouldn’t be able to play.”
Kazuha Toyama shook his head. "I'm not looking for him. I'm calling Inspector Otaki, who's in charge of the case. Akatsuki-san said he knows who the culprit is."
"What? He didn't even go to the scene, and just listened to you talk about it and deduced the truth of the case?"
Hattori Shizuka was taken aback.
As the wife of the Osaka Prefectural Police Chief, she certainly knew how difficult it was to solve a case.
This Akatsuki Kaze didn't even go to the scene or investigate; he just listened to Toyama Kazuha's explanation and solved the case. That's so unlike Conan.
You're not just making this up, are you?
“Aunt Jinghua, you don’t know, Akachu-san is very powerful. In Tokyo, he’s a famous crime fighter.” Toyama Kazuha said while waiting for the other party to answer the phone.
"Now, people in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department regard him as an idol. They only seek him out for very difficult cases, and he has never failed."
"Really? Is he that good?" Hattori Shizuka asked, looking incredulous.
"Hello, Officer Ōtaki? This is Kazuha. Akatsuki-san asked me to tell you that the culprit is Kotegawa, and the modus operandi is as follows... The evidence is as follows..."
Kazuha Toyama didn't hang up the phone; after a short while, she smiled.
"Really? The criminal confessed? That's wonderful! Oh, you're welcome. It's not my doing; it was all because of my Chichu-san..."
Hearing Toyama Kazuha's words, Hattori Shizuka felt a pang of sadness.
Son, compared to others, you seem to be far behind.
"Oh dear, never mind, it's time for Akatsuki-san to go on stage!"
Kazuha Toyama suddenly hung up the phone in a panic and stared wide-eyed at the stadium.
Shizuka Hattori also paid attention to the past.
Okita from Kyoto Izumi High School stood on the field, exuding a fierce aura.
On the other side, Chi Chufeng casually gripped his sword, showing no sign of exerting any force.
Seeing him like this, for some reason, Hattori Shizuka felt a little uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips and said, "This Chi Chufeng 957 is too careless, acting as if his opponent is far inferior to him. He'll probably be defeated in just a few moves."
"No, it can't be, Chichu-san can definitely..."
Kazuha Toyama wanted to say they could win, but then he thought it was a bit of an exaggeration.
This is the way of the sword.
It seems that Akachu-san has never touched a sword before.
I've never touched Akachu Kaze.
But he is a magician.
Moreover, he is a mage who possesses advanced magic, the Reality Illusion.
All you need to do is cast a spell on yourself to become an extremely powerful swordsman.
