The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

"That damn Conan!? Hmm~ How did I end up sitting here? What happened?"

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri, who had been knocked unconscious by Conan's tranquilizer dart, gradually woke up from his deep sleep. He was about to continue the things he had done before falling asleep to teach Conan a lesson when he noticed the strange expressions on the faces of the people around him and the admiring looks they were giving him.

"You strange-looking uncle! Your reasoning is amazing! I never knew you were a famous detective!" Mikami Suzuran ran up to Kogoro Mouri and praised the uncle she had previously looked down upon with admiration.

"Hahaha, is that so! Of course!" Although he didn't know what had happened, Kogoro Mouri still laughed heartily.

Chapter 117 Conan: Aragaki Yu's eyes are a bit strange.

Unlike those who were preoccupied with their own thoughts, Conan focused his attention on Yuu Aragaki, who had been missing for most of the day.

He had only just noticed that Aragaki Yuu and Masami were no longer wearing the same clothes as they had that afternoon.

Didn't they go for a walk?

What did they do that required both of them to change their clothes?

In Conan's eyes, Aragaki Yu was acting mysteriously that day, and no one knew what he was doing.

Although there was no evidence, Conan, influenced by his detective intuition, felt that the collapse of the cave was more or less related to Aragaki Yu.

Filled with various doubts, Conan also came to the side of Aragaki Yu and Miyano Akemi.

Seeing that Aragaki Yu seemed to be lost in thought and out of place with everyone around him, Conan couldn't help but reach out and poke his arm.

"Brother Aragaki..."

"Hmm...Eh!? What's wrong, Conan?" Aragaki Yu was still muttering to himself.

Unexpectedly, with Conan's unsuspecting deduction and assistance, he was able to cover up the fact that he had taken gold worth 1 billion yen so easily.

In this way, everyone would think that the gold from the Dragon God Ship was forever buried in that cave.

No one will discover what they've been doing.

(The three little shikigami in the Yin-Yang Realm: "But we know!")

Yuu Aragaki: You're not human.

The three little ones: ...

Akemi Miyano: What about me?

Aragaki Yu:...)

After all, the manpower and resources required to reopen the cave and find the gold would not necessarily be more worthwhile than one billion yen.

Thinking of this, Aragaki Yu couldn't help but secretly gloat.

Therefore, when he looked at the great hero Conan, Yuichi Aragaki suddenly found him much more pleasing to the eye, and his eyes unconsciously became much more eager.

That look sent a chill down Conan's spine, and he couldn't help but take a half-step back from Aragaki Yu.

[This person... seems a bit off?]

It's like... a pervert?!

Aragaki Yu:......

Fortunately, Aragaki Yu's gaze was fleeting.

The next second, Aragaki Yu's enthusiastic gaze returned to normal.

Seeing Aragaki Yuu looking at him with a puzzled expression after being called out, Conan could only comfort himself that perhaps he had just misread the words.

Conan continued with his previous question: "Aragaki-nii, what are you daydreaming about?"

Yuu Aragaki smiled slightly, glanced at Conan, then at Akemi Miyano who had been silent beside him, and finally looked at the residents of Shikijima, saying, "It's nothing, just some feelings!"

"Yes!"

Conan naturally assumed that Aragaki Yu was talking about the various evil things that had happened because of this batch of gold, so he nodded in agreement.

Yuu Aragaki patted Conan on the shoulder and said excitedly, "Really! Conan, you think so too? I never thought that batch of gold would be left underground forever. In that case, we won't be able to get the 100 million yen reward. What a pity..."

Upon hearing Yuu Aragaki's speech, Conan, realizing he had misunderstood, froze, staring blankly at Yuu Aragaki's exaggeratedly regretful expression.

Conan:? ? ?

This guy... could he be possessed by Uncle Mori?!

"Pfft..."

Miyano Akemi, who had been silent the whole time because she was afraid that her words and actions might inadvertently reveal something, couldn't help but burst into laughter when she saw Aragaki Yu's silly antics.

Yuu Aragaki rolled his eyes at Akemi Miyano, then said to Conan and Ran, who were walking towards them, "Alright, it's getting late. Now that things are resolved, let's hurry back to the hotel to rest."

"But dad..."

Ran turned her head and found Kogoro Mouri still not far away, boasting to the village chief and others.

"Don't worry about him, Uncle Mori will handle everything." Aragaki Yu smiled and glanced at Kogoro Mori before comforting Ran.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiaolan nodded in agreement: "Okay, alright..."

"Ah."

For Ran and Conan, a lot happened today, and they were indeed a bit tired.

Because of Aragaki Yu's earlier interruption, Conan forgot to ask Aragaki Yu and Miyano Akemi where they had gone and why they had changed their clothes.

Much later, Conan, who was half asleep in bed, suddenly woke up and sat up with a start: "Damn it! I completely forgot about something so important!"

……

Back at the inn, Aragaki Yuu, alone in his room, was sitting cross-legged on the bed, staring blankly at the demon sword princess in front of him.

More accurately, Yuuki Aragaki, the Yuki-onna beside him, and the little tengu were sitting around the Yoto-hime, looking at her with amazement.

The Demon Blade Princess felt a little embarrassed by the stares of the group and couldn't help but cover her blushing face with her hands.

"W-what's wrong, Master? Am I...am I acting strangely?"

The voice of the Demon Blade Princess sounded exceptionally shy.

It turns out that after Yaodao-hime destroyed the strange naval ghost, Aragaki Yu was still wondering why he hadn't gained anything.

I did get blue tickets when I dealt with the Mist Tengu.

But this time, with the same kind of ghostly and monstrous naval spirits, not only were blue tickets not given, but not even a single Daruma doll was given.

This made Aragaki Yu feel a little strange.

"Could it be that the naval ghost wasn't dealt with?"

Aragaki Yu couldn't help but shiver.

Just as Aragaki Yu was about to pull the Demon Blade Princess, who had just fought with the naval ghosts, out of the Yin-Yang Domain to ask about the specifics, he finally discovered something that surprised him greatly.

Although I don't have much of anything like blue tickets or damo.

However, something else had appeared on Yaodaoji's body.

The Demon Blade Princess, who had been wearing a kimono, has now changed into a tight-fitting dark purple soft armor. The armor clings to her slender, curvaceous figure, making her appear even more beautiful yet powerful.

"Why are they even doing costume changes now!"

Yuu Aragaki looked at the Demon Sword Princess with curiosity, and occasionally reached out to fiddle with the armor on her body.

"Yoto Hime, is there anything that's bothering you?"

Yaodaoji was also very curious about the armor that had suddenly appeared on her body. She couldn't help but touch and feel it here and there, and then she stretched her waist and limbs. After confirming that there was nothing unusual about it, Yaodaoji happily said, "Master! I feel very good now. I feel like my whole body is full of power!"

"Hmm." Seeing Yaodao-hime excitedly waving her fist, Aragaki Yu nodded in satisfaction. However, after a pause, he couldn't help but ask, "Can you change back into your old clothes?"

Compared to this soft armor, Aragaki Yuu still prefers the outfit Yaodao-hime wore in the kimono, not because he has any particular fondness for kimonos.

However, it seems that the kimono revealed a bit more skin...

Yoto Hime: !!!

Yuki-onna and Tengu: ? ? ?

"It should... be okay!" After tilting her head and thinking for a moment, the Demon Sword Princess transformed back into her previous kimono-clad form in an instant, following a soft flash of white light.

Aragaki Yu:......

Is it really that fast to change clothes?

Meanwhile, Yuki-onna and Tengu stared at the disguised Yoto-hime with envy and resentment in their eyes.

"Why is it only Yoto Hime who has a new outfit...?"

Chapter 118 This is all the help I can give you, sister!

"Twelve thousand yen!?"

Yuu Aragaki stared in disbelief at the A5 grade Kobe beef in his shopping cart, marveling at how exorbitant the prices in Tokyo were and how poor he was.

"One box costs 12,000 yen and only contains 200 grams. There are six boxes here. 12,000 yen multiplied by six is... 73,000 yen!"

Goodness, Aragaki Yu silently calculated the price in his mind and exclaimed.

"Aragaki."
