Detective Conan: I, with my magical powers, am going to destroy the world!

Yuriko Matsunaka is currently only seven years old, about the same age as Ayumi.

Her mother angered Gozo Iseikawa by running away from home and getting married against everyone's wishes.

Her father died in a car accident shortly after her birth, and Yuriko Matsunaka then lived with her mother and lost contact with the Iseikawa family.

“This is the commission fee,” the middle-aged man said, handing a check to Chi Chufeng. “I’m counting on you for Miss Yuriko. If there are any further commissions, I will pay more.”

Chi Chufeng glanced at the check.

2000 million, not too much, not too little.

This request was too easy for Chi Chufeng; a single prediction spell could solve it.

However, Chi Chufeng was not in a hurry to take him there.

I'll meet the child first, just in case something goes wrong.

"Mr. Clock, I will contact you after I find Miss Yuriko." Akatsuka stood up, ending the meeting.

Didan Primary School.

As the clock struck two, the school bell rang to signal the end of the school term.

Many children carrying their schoolbags poured out of the school gate one after another, while some children whose families couldn't come for the time being went to the activity room in twos and threes.

Ai leaned against the horizontal bar, striking a cool pose, waiting for Akatsuki to pick her up from school.

"Ai," Akatsuki appeared at the school gate wearing sunglasses and immediately noticed Ai's figure, "Where are Conan and the others?"

"They're still over by the shoe cabinet," Ai turned around blankly, looking at Chi Chufeng who had taken off his sunglasses. "What do you want with them?"

Chi Chufeng glanced at the adults gathered at the school gate out of the corner of his eye, "I have something to ask them."

"What's wrong? Even you, an Onmyoji, need help?" Ai asked curiously.

"There's a request to find elementary school students. I noticed the Junior Detective League is pretty free lately, so I'll give them something to do."

Chi Chufeng smiled slightly and followed Ai to the Junior Detective Club's base.

It's called a base, but it's really just a place with a row of shoe cabinets.

The shoe cabinet at Yuan Tai Di is where the letter of entrustment is received.

You can imagine how ridiculous a commission would be if it were accepted next to smelly shoes.

“What is this?” Genta said somewhat sullenly, “Why can’t we get any better commissions? It’s always just finding small things, like playing house.”

Conan just chuckled.

What kind of commission do you want to take on, you little brat?

"You're all here?" Chi Chufeng suddenly appeared behind Yuan Tai and rubbed his chubby head.

"Brother Chichu?" Genta shrank back in surprise. "What are you doing at our school?"

"Find a girl named Matsunaka Yuriko. She should be a first-year student at this school," Akatsuka Kaze said with a smile. "Consider it a request I made for you. That should be fine, right?"

“Of course, no problem, but,” Genta asked suspiciously, “Brother Chichu, why are you looking for an elementary school student? Is she a cute girl?”

"Yes, she's a lovely girl." Chi Chufeng smiled. "How about a serving of eel rice for each of us as the commission fee?"

"An eel rice bowl? That's fantastic!"

Genta readily accepted the task and pondered carefully, "Is her name Matsunaka Yuriko? But there are many girls in the first year, so we'll have to search each class one by one."

"There's no need for all that trouble, Genta," Conan said speechlessly. "Wouldn't it be enough to just look at the roster?"

"Yes, that's a good idea. Let's go find it now."

The children ran off excitedly.

"That's the girl!"

In the elementary school classroom, several children were happily hiding outside the door.

Inside was a little girl with pigtails, wearing a light blue dress, who was on duty and looked exceptionally quiet.

"So cute! Brother Akaso, you're really something." Mitsuhiko gave a thumbs up.

Ignoring Mitsuhiko, who was blushing and grinning foolishly, Akatsuka Kaze frowned slightly and looked at the little girl.

........ .... .......

Her large, expressive eyes held a faint hint of sadness.

However, unlike Ai's indifference, she looked very similar to young Ran, which immediately attracted the attention of Mitsuhiko and Genta, who secretly stared at the girl.

“Brother Akachu,” Mitsuhiko’s heart softened, “Do we need to see her for something?”

Chi Chufeng glanced sideways at the group of kids: "What do you mean 'us'? It's just me."

"But we found the land together."

"Is that so?" Facing the expectant eyes of Mitsuhiko and the others, Akatsuka Kaze's lips curled up slightly.

He originally wanted these children to be involved in this matter; otherwise, what would be the point of having them come looking for people?

"Don't do anything reckless later, just listen to me."

On the edge of the school playground, where there were hardly any people, Yuriko Matsunaka quietly sat on a stone bench, secretly glancing at Akatsuka Kaze and Genta and the others who were grinning foolishly behind her.

"Brother Chichu, is there something you need from me?"

Akatsukaze was a well-known figure at Teitan Elementary School; many little girls knew him and even considered him as their future marriage partner.

Matsunaka Yuriko is no exception.

Chapter 590 The Little Loli's Entrustment

“Is that so?” Chi Chufeng felt a little awkward talking to a little girl like this, but he still spoke up:

"A man named Shiki asked me to find Ms. Matsunaka Yuriko, saying that it was at the request of your great-grandfather. So I would like to ask about your family situation. I wonder if you have any impression of Isegawa Gozo?"

Yuriko Matsunaka lowered her head: "My father was in a car accident not long after I was born, and my mother passed away last year. It seems that my parents ran away from home and got married in a place far away. They never mentioned relatives to me, so I don't know anything about them."

Chi Chufeng asked again, then called the middle-aged man in sunglasses. He said to Matsunaka Yuriko, "Iseikawa Gozo is your mother's grandfather, which is also your great-grandfather."

"However, last winter, Mr. Iseikawa suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away not long after, leaving behind only a will regarding the inheritance of his property."

"Thank you so much, Lord Chichu," the middle-aged man in sunglasses said, bowing.

Chi Chufeng asked, "So you're looking for Yuriko because you want her to go back and inherit your fortune?"

"That could be said, but according to Mr. Iseikawa Gozo's last words," the middle-aged man adjusted his sunglasses and continued:

"Miss Yuriko also needs to complete a challenge. If she can solve the puzzle within 24 hours, she will receive Mr. Iseikawa's entire estate. However, if she fails to solve it within the specified time, she will lose both her inheritance rights and her right to challenge the puzzle."

The middle-aged man looked at the little girl sitting quietly opposite him and said, "Ms. Matsunaka Yuriko."

"Yes." The little girl snapped out of her daze and met the middle-aged man's gaze.

“I am reporting to you in my capacity as Mr. Gozo Iseikawa’s secretary and executor,” the middle-aged man said calmly. “Now it is Ms. Yuriko, the 17th in line to the throne, who has the right to challenge me.”

The little girl clutched her skirt tightly: "Me...me?"

"That's right, it's up to you whether you want to challenge or abstain."

The middle-aged man chuckled, “However, if you accept the challenge, you can go and see the house where your mother lived with Mr. Iseya Gozo when she was a child, which is also the location of the challenge: Angel's Mansion.”

“Mr. Clock,” Chi Chufeng asked, crossing his fingers, “has the 17th in line of succession been challenged by the previous 16 people?”

"Of course, they have all challenged the succession in the past few months."

"Can I ask what kind of challenge it is? After all, Yuriko is just a child, and if there's any danger..."

“I’m sorry,” the middle-aged man looked at Chi Chufeng again, “this will only be announced after Miss Yuriko officially accepts the challenge and at the scheduled time. If Miss Yuriko is worried about the danger, she can of course bring helpers.”

"Help?" Genta asked excitedly. "Can we help too?"

"Of course, Mr. Gozo Iseya has not restricted the number of helpers, as long as the challenge is completed within the specified time."

"That's great!" Mitsuhiko exclaimed excitedly. "Mr. Clock, let's help Yuriko complete the challenge! With our Junior Detective Club and Akatsuki-nii's help, we're sure we can solve the mystery!"

Chi Chufeng remained silent.

This is also why he sought out the Junior Detective League...

With these children around, it's easier to take on Yuriko Matsunaka's request.

Otherwise, it would feel a bit strange for a grown man like myself to accept a 7-year-old girl's request and take her on a mission alone.

“Yuriko,” Akatsukaze turned to the seemingly nervous little girl opposite him, “What are your own thoughts? If needed, I can take on this request.”

"I," the little girl looked up at Chi Chufeng, her face slightly flushed, "I'm willing to ask Brother Chi Chufeng for help."

The so-called "Mansion of the Earthly Angels" is located deep in the mountains far from Tokyo. The middle-aged man in sunglasses drove the group into the forest.

"We'll arrive once we pass through this forest. Let's have dinner first, and I'll announce the challenge details at 9 o'clock," the middle-aged man explained as he drove.

Akatsuka was holding Ai in the back seat, with Genta's chubby body next to them. Even though Ayumi and Matsunaka Yuriko were sitting in the front passenger seat, the car was still crowded.

"Why did you all come along? 2.8" Chi Chufeng said, "You're going to make up another excuse about camping for two days and two nights."

"What?!" Genta was also squeezed and unable to move. "It's so unfair to only bring Conan and Ai Haibara. We're also members of the Junior Detective Team!"

"That's right!" Ayumi said, looking closely at Akatsuki. "Does Akatsuki-nii dislike Ayumi?"
