Solving cases with Detective Conan's science? No, I'm a cultivator!

The sound came from all directions, making it impossible for Kitagawa Taki to determine its source, and there was nothing unusual within his spiritual sense range.

The eerie sound didn't last long and quickly disappeared.

"Let's go upstairs."

The two women nodded and followed Kitagawa Taki closely.

As the three reached the stairwell and were about to go upstairs, suddenly, a large gush of blood, like a flash flood, gushed towards them from the top of the stairs.

"what!!!"

Sonoko and Ran had never seen anything like this before. They were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, too exhausted to even run.

Ignoring the blood in front of him, Kitagawa Taki took out two Spirit Heart Talismans and used them on Sonoko and Ran respectively.

"It's just an illusion, take a closer look," Kitagawa Taki said softly, pulling the two women into his arms.

Under the influence of the Spirit Heart Talisman, the two women finally dispelled their fear. Upon closer inspection, they saw that there was no blood on the stairs; they were completely empty.

When Ran came to her senses, she found herself being hugged by Kitagawa Taki again, and struggled slightly.

Kitagawa Taki then released the two of them.

"Taki, what happened?" Sonoko asked, relieved.

The scene of blood gushing out just now was so realistic.

Kitagawa Taki explained, "This is an illusion created by someone."

"Humans? Isn't it supposed to be haunted?" Xiaolan asked.

"No, it's probably someone trying to scare us away with these methods."

Kitagawa Taki suspected that someone was doing something shady at school at night.

"Let's go." Kitagawa Taki helped the two women up.

After hearing that someone was behind it, Sonoko and Ran calmed down a bit.

The three of them went up to the second floor and looked around, but found nothing unusual.

"Wait, Taki, Ran, have you heard any strange noises?"

The garden called out to the two of them.

"Sonoko, I didn't hear anything! Don't scare me!" Ran said nervously.

"It's a cat's meow, probably a stray cat..."

Before Kitagawa Taki could finish speaking, he sensed a black cat enter his spiritual sense range and quickly run towards the three of them.

"Meow--"

The black cat leaped across in front of the three of them, letting out a shrill, unpleasant cry.

The black cat's eyes gleamed yellow as it stopped behind the three of them.

"Oh, it's a cat." The two women patted their chests.

Ran wanted to reach out and tease the cat, but Kitagawa Taki stopped her, saying, "It's not an ordinary cat."

Sure enough, the black cat let out a shrill cry, and black smoke billowed from its body, transforming into a crow with glowing red eyes.

"Ah!" the two women exclaimed in surprise.

Kitagawa Taki raised his hand and unleashed a water arrow technique, which instantly turned the crow into a cloud of black mist and dissipated upon impact.

After witnessing this unbelievable scene, Xiaolan asked, "W-was this also done by that person?"

"Taki, was that your magic just now?" Sonoko was more interested in the water arrow technique that Kitagawa Taki had used.

Kitagawa Taki replied, "Yes, that black cat was just trying to scare us. As for the spell I used, it's called 'Water Arrow Technique,' a trivial little spell."

"Water Arrow Technique..." Sonoko thought the name was very fitting and waved her hand in the same way as Kitagawa Taki.

Ran covered her mouth and chuckled, finding it quite amusing, and waved along with Sonoko.

Kitagawa Taki watched Sonoko and Ran's actions, shook his head with a smile, and thought, "Girls are indeed adorable creatures."

He continued to lead the way, with the two women following closely behind.

After this incident, the atmosphere became much more cheerful.

As soon as Kitagawa Taki reached the third floor, he saw a dark shadow flying in the air.

"It's that dark figure!!"

Sonoko and Ran saw it too.

Kitagawa Taki scanned the area with his divine sense and was immediately dumbfounded, because the so-called black figure was actually Koizumi Akako wearing a black cloak.

"You two wait here for me, I'll go check."

Once Kitagawa Taki realized it was Koizumi Akako, he felt relieved and quickly followed.

He followed Koizumi Akako all the way to an empty classroom.

Koizumi Akako's figure disappeared, but Kitagawa Taki's divine sense still detected her.

She was floating a few meters above Kitagawa Taki's head when she slowly landed behind him and patted his shoulder.

Kitagawa Taki wrapped his arms around Koizumi Akako's waist. "Miss Akako, stop playing tricks!"

Koizumi Akako, who had been struggling, was taken aback. "How did you know it was me?"

"secret."

He couldn't reveal his divine sense to outsiders; if people knew he could see through things at will, it would be disastrous.

"You, you let me go right now, or I'll get rough!" Koizumi Akako started twisting again.

"How exactly are you being impolite?"

Despite saying that, Kitagawa Taki still let go of Koizumi Akako.

Koizumi Akako's face flushed slightly as she took off her cloak, revealing her school uniform underneath.

"Why aren't you home at night? What are you doing at school? And why are you deliberately trying to scare people?" Kitagawa Taki asked curiously.

He thought someone was up to something shady.

Koizumi Akako regained her haughty demeanor and smiled, "I didn't mean to scare anyone; they just happened to see me flying."

"So you were just trying to scare us?" Kitagawa Taki asked with a straight face.

"That's right, after I found out it was you, I wanted to scare you, but it seems I didn't succeed," Koizumi Akako said regretfully.

"Have you forgotten that I am an exorcist? You think you can scare me with your tricks?"

He wasn't scared, but Ran and Sonoko definitely were. We have to thank Koizumi Akako for the assist in this.

Koizumi Akako gave a soft snort; she felt it was already terrifying enough.

"You still haven't told me what you do at school!"

"Of course we're here to get down to business. Come with me!"

After saying that, Koizumi Akako led the way, and the two arrived at the science classroom.

Inside, several candles were lit, and on the table were several glasses of solutions of various colors, as well as a thick magic book.

There are two heart-shaped emblems on the book.

"You're not conducting a magic experiment here, are you?!" Kitagawa Taki's lips twitched.

Indeed, the end of science is metaphysics! Magical experiments actually require ordinary chemical products.

"There's plenty of space here, and a good selection of medicines, so I'll conduct my experiments here after most of the people have left."

Koizumi Akako seemed quite satisfied with the science classroom.

What is this?

Kitagawa Taki walked to the table and reached for the two heart-shaped emblems.

The heart-shaped emblem has a flow of spiritual energy, making it clearly extraordinary.

Koizumi Akako, however, was quick and grabbed it first, saying, "This one isn't finished yet."

"And you have to keep what happens here a secret!" Koizumi Akako changed the subject.

"Why should I keep it a secret for you?" Kitagawa Taki asked with a smile.

"If you don't keep this a secret, I'll... I'll..."

Koizumi Akako wanted to say something threatening, but then realized that she didn't seem to have anything to threaten Kitagawa Taki with.

"Haha, I can keep it a secret for you, but you should probably tone it down in the future! Don't let anyone find out again."

Kitagawa Taki stopped making things difficult for Koizumi Akako.

"Goodbye, Miss Akako, I'm waiting for you to conquer me!"

Kitagawa Taki waved and left the science classroom; Sonoko and Ran were still waiting for him.

Koizumi Akako watched Kitagawa Taki's retreating figure and clenched the heart-shaped emblem in her hand.

She'll definitely win Kitagawa Taki's heart next time they meet!

Chapter 69 Sister, Brother-in-law!?

"Taki, how did it go? Did you catch that dark figure? What exactly is that dark figure?"

When Sonoko saw Kitagawa Taki return, she couldn't help but ask him a question.

Kitagawa Taki shook his head. "We caught up with her, but she still got away. That dark figure was just someone trying to scare us."

"Will she come back to our school?" Xiaolan asked worriedly.

Kitagawa Taki said, "No, I've already taught her a lesson."

He just hoped that Koizumi Akako would really restrain herself, otherwise she would embarrass him.
