The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

"Ah~"

Left with no other choice, Yuu Aragaki released Tatsuya Nagai's wrist and delivered a chop to the back of Nagai's neck as he lay on the ground, deciding to manually turn off the noise pollution.

"Seriously, she's not a girl, who is she screaming for!"

Yuu Aragaki shook his hand, watched as Tatsuya Nagai tilted his head to the side, rolled his eyes, and collapsed completely to the ground, then wiped his hand on Nagai's clothes with a look of disgust.

At this moment, Ran and Sonoko, who found that there was no movement outside the door, cautiously peeked out of the room. Only after they saw that Nagai Tatsuya had been knocked to the ground did they feel relieved enough to come out.

Ran kicked the motionless Nagai Tatsuya on the ground, and asked Aragaki Yu with a guilty conscience, "Aragaki, is he alright? Did you kill him?"

Although in Ran's heart she couldn't help but feel that scum like Nagai Tatsuya deserved to die, she was even more unwilling to let Aragaki Yuu get involved in anything because of him.

"It's alright, I think he just fainted. Ran, we can call the police now!" As Yuu Aragaki explained, he also instructed Sonoko, who was engrossed in filming with her camera, "Sonoko, go find a rope. Before the police arrive, we can tie him up to be absolutely sure."

"Okay!" Xiaolan nodded, then immediately took her phone and went to the side to dial the police number.

"A rope?" Sonoko looked at Aragaki Yu with some hesitation, seemingly unsure where to find a rope to tie someone up.

Yuu Aragaki gestured towards the bedroom and reminded Sonoko, "I think this guy definitely has something like this in his bag. Go check it out, but be careful."

"Okay!" With a clue, Sonoko immediately rushed to the bedroom to find Nagai Tatsuya's bag.

"what!!!"

However, less than half a minute later, Sonoko's exclamation came from the bedroom.

"???"

Aragaki Yu and Ran were immediately startled, fearing that something might have happened to Sonoko. At that moment, they didn't care about Nagai Tatsuya, who had fainted on the ground, and both ran to the bedroom.

"Sonoko! Are you alright!" Ran, who was extremely worried, was the first to rush into the room and run to Sonoko, who was slumped on the floor. At the same time, she looked around nervously, searching for something that had frightened Sonoko, but after looking around several times, she couldn't find anything unusual.

Following closely behind, Aragaki Yu, looking at the handbag that Sonoko had pulled open on the ground and Sonoko's blushing face, seemed to understand something.

"Looks like there's something extraordinary in this bag!"

Aragaki Yu narrowed his eyes and walked towards the handbag.

Chapter 137 The Darkened Xiaolan

The bag was stuffed full of all sorts of things.

Glass cutters for breaking windows, grappling hooks for climbing balconies, duct tape for sealing up...

what is this?

"Wow, that's incredible."

Gradually, Yuu Aragaki's expression became strange. He finally understood why Sonoko had exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh?! Why are there candles inside?" At this moment, Ran walked up to Aragaki Yu's side, looking at the contents of the bag and asking in confusion, "And what are all these strange things?"

The naive Xiaolan couldn't see the contents of the bag as a murder weapon no matter how she looked at it.

"Perhaps it's a mechanism used to design some kind of murder method or a locked room?" Aragaki Yu glanced at Ran's innocent face, then guiltily glanced at his own eyes and said against his will.

Standing to the side, Sonoko, who seemed to have figured out the purpose of all the tools, looked at Aragaki Yu with great surprise.

Hey Hey hey!

Don't you feel any pain in your heart to lie to people so blatantly?

"I see!" Ran nodded, seemingly understanding, and before Aragaki Yu and Sonoko could react, she took out her phone and snapped a picture of the contents of the bag. She said with great interest, "Then I'll ask Shinichi for help tonight! I think he'll know how to design a mechanism using this!"

Aragaki Yu:! ! !

Ah, no!

Xiaolan, no! Please don't!

This way, it'll be difficult for me to explain things to Shinichi!

Aragaki Yuu suddenly felt as if ten thousand mythical beasts were galloping through his mind.

He was terrified that Conan, knowing everything, would come after him with a knife the next day.

Although I'm not afraid myself, it's not a good influence!

"Hahaha!" Seeing Aragaki Yu's face darken instantly and Ran's bewildered expression, Sonoko finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.

"Huh? Sonoko, what are you laughing at? Is something wrong?" Seeing Aragaki Yuu and Sonoko's reactions, Ran was even more confused.

"Hahaha! Ran, don't listen to Aragaki's nonsense. Listen to me..." Sonoko held back her tears of laughter, clutched her stomach, and whispered in Ran's ear.

As Sonoko explained little by little, Aragaki Yu noticed that Ran's complexion visibly changed from white to red, then from red to blue, and finally turned completely black.

"That scumbag!" After listening to Sonoko's words, Ran clenched her fists and cursed through gritted teeth.

Although Aragaki Yu knew that Ran was referring to Nagai Tatsuya, he noticed that Ran's eyes, burning with rage, were fixed on him.

He was clearly slightly dissatisfied with his vague description of the contents of his bag.

Looking at Ran's pretty face, which was as cold as frost, Aragaki Yu couldn't help but shiver: "Ran, you...you shouldn't be too angry! It's just that Nagai Tatsuya's plan didn't succeed!"

"Hmm!" Ran nodded upon hearing Aragaki Yu's words, but the resentment in her body showed no sign of diminishing.

Then, under the puzzled gazes of Aragaki Yu and Sonoko, Ran, while cracking her knuckles, walked step by step toward Nagai Tatsuya, who was lying unconscious outside the door.

"Shin, Shin-gaki... Ran looks so scary now!!!" Sonoko stammered, looking at her friend who seemed like a completely different person.

"Uh-huh!"

boom!

Boom!

Clang!

……

Just as the two were talking, a series of loud noises came from outside the door.

It sounded like something was being struck in preparation for payment.

"Sonoko, Sonoko! Why don't you go out and check? What if Nagai Tatsumi gets hurt too? That would be bad!" Aragaki Yu nudged Sonoko, who was standing there in a daze.

"No, no, I'm not going!" Recalling Ran's expression just now, Sonoko couldn't help but shudder. She rolled her eyes at Aragaki Yu speechlessly and replied, "Why aren't you going!"

"Isn't this all your fault?!" Yuu Aragaki didn't want to provoke Ran at this moment, so he looked at Sonoko and said, "If you hadn't explained it so clearly, how could it have turned out like this?"

"Ha...men!"

"..."

"Hehe, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Letting him die so easily would be too easy for him!" Just as the two were shirking their responsibilities, Xiaolan slowly walked back into the house and looked at them coldly.

"Ran, how is he?" Sonoko asked Ran with some concern.

"It's alright, I won't die anytime soon." Xiaolan narrowed her eyes, smiled, and replied contentedly.

Clearly, the beating she received outside had given Xiaolan a good outlet for her anger.

"A gentle girl like Ran can be terrifying when she gets angry!" Just as Aragaki Yu was mentally ranting, his phone suddenly rang.

"It must be Ms. Nishitani calling!"

Yuu Aragaki quickly pulled out his phone from his pocket, glanced at the caller ID, and answered the call immediately.

"Hello?... Yes, yes, it's all over!... Okay, you can go back to your apartment now... It's okay, it's okay, don't be shy... Okay, see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Aragaki Yu glanced at Ran and Sonoko, who had returned to normal, and said, "Miss Nishiya is on her way back. Now, all we have to do is wait for the police and Miss Nishiya to arrive, and we'll be all set."

"Okay!" Ran and Sonoko nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

We've finally gotten rid of that stalker for Ms. Nishitani!

Looking back on catching the stalker, Ran and Sonoko felt a mix of tension and excitement.

Seeing Ran and Sonoko sitting on the sofa, Yu Aragaki took out the rope that Tatsuya Nagai had prepared from his bag and said, "Ran, let's go tie Tatsuya up first!"

"Okay!" Xiaolan, who had just sat down on the sofa, nodded and was about to stand up to take the rope from Aragaki Yu's hand.

Just as Ran was about to grab the rope, Aragaki Yu suddenly withdrew his hand, glanced at her hesitantly, and finally turned to Sonoko beside him, saying, "Never mind, Ran, you should rest for a bit. Sonoko, you and I will go tie someone up!"

"..."

Ran looked at her outstretched hand that had just gone to catch nothing, and couldn't help but look at Aragaki Yuna, who was gesturing for Sonoko to get up, with a face full of black lines.

Huh, no? Aragaki, what do you mean?!

Didn't I just go out and beat up Nagai Tatsuya after turning evil?

Is it necessary to target yourself like this?

We haven't killed him yet!

Chapter 138 A Perfect Ending

Fifteen minutes later.

Miho Nishitani returned to her apartment and looked at Tatsuya Nagai lying unconscious on the floor. Her eyes were filled with disgust and a hint of relief. Of course, she also noticed that Tatsuya Nagai's clothes were disheveled and his body was covered in bruises, clearly indicating that he had just suffered inhuman treatment.

"Thank you!" Miho Nishitani bowed deeply to the three people in the room, a relieved smile on her face. She felt more relaxed than ever before.
