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

"I know you can hear me. Do you want to come over?" Sonoko became more and more audacious.

Xiaolan called softly, "The garden!"

Sonoko laughed and said, "Don't worry, this wall is so high, he can't get over it."

Kitagawa Taki heard their words clearly; they were trying to tease him instead.

Being Pigsy, who peeks at the spider demon bathing, is no fun. If you're going to be someone, be Monkey King, who freezes the seven fairies in place.

Kitagawa Taki immediately flipped over and jumped over.

thump!

Kitagawa Taki fell into the hot spring, splashing up a huge spray of water.

"Ah!" The girls exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

No one expected that Kitagawa Taki would actually come, but fortunately they were all wrapped in bath towels.

Kitagawa Taki looked at the girls with a smile. Whether it was because of the hot spring or because of shyness, the girls had all turned into steam princesses, their faces flushed, adding a touch of hazy beauty to the steaming hot spring.

"How about it?"

"You can climb over such a high wall?!" Sonoko knew that Kitagawa Taki could climb walls, but she didn't expect him to be this good. She forgot that last time Kitagawa Taki was carrying someone.

With Kitagawa Taki joining the group, the girls instantly became reserved, not just Sonoko and the others, but even Miyano Akemi.

Only Ai Haibara remained calm; she didn't believe that Taki Kitagawa would do anything outrageous.

"You guys keep playing and chatting! Just pretend I don't exist." Kitagawa Taki rested his hands behind his head and leaned against the hot spring.

“How could I pretend you don’t exist? The look in your eyes…” Sonoko was too embarrassed to continue.

The others nodded in agreement.

The girls all bury their heads in the sand like ostriches, hiding on the other side, clearly separated from Kitagawa Taki.

Kitagawa Taki found it somewhat amusing. Sonoko and the others were one thing, but why was Miyano Akemi so shy? He decided he needed to work out more when he got back.

"You guys are just staying over there? This hot spring is so spacious," Kitagawa Taki asked deliberately.

"Ahem, since Taki wants to come along, then let's go together. Anyway, it's not a big deal."

Koizumi Akako casually moved to the middle, leaning closer to Kitagawa Taki.

Kitagawa Taki felt something was off about what he was hearing.

Not to be outdone, the garden also started moving.

Only Ran and the Miyano sisters remained where they were.

A dozen minutes later.

The girls were all a little dizzy from soaking in the water. They originally wanted to wait for Kitagawa Taki to leave first, but Kitagawa Taki acted as if nothing had happened.

So the women got up and fled the hot spring as if they were escaping.

Chapter 86 is my reward.

The hibiscus comes out of the clear water and is carved naturally.

Kitagawa Taki felt that this line of poetry was the perfect description for the moment.

The girls' faces were flushed, and their bodies were white and rosy from being soaked in the hot spring. Kitagawa Taki felt that water could be squeezed out of them.

Women are made of water and flesh, and Jia Baoyu was right about that.

After the others left, Kitagawa Taki flipped back over; his clothes were still there!

A few minutes later, Kitagawa Taki met the group, who were dressed in their pajamas, in Sonoko's room.

The women looked slightly uncomfortable, and Ai Haibara even gave Taki Kitagawa a disdainful look.

Kitagawa Taki seemed oblivious and took out several golden talismans from his bracelet space.

These were all newly crafted by him. As his cultivation level increased, the protective capabilities of the Golden Light Talisman also improved.

"Keep these talismans safe. I'll go out later and see if I can run into the Snow Woman."

Kitagawa Taki handed the golden talisman to the women, but left out Koizumi Akako.

Seeing that the message was gone once it reached her, Koizumi Akako asked, "Where's mine?"

She was even planning to take it home and study it!

You don't need it.

Kitagawa Taki did not intend to target Koizumi Akako; he only had four new Golden Light Talismans.

"Why don't I need it?" Koizumi Akako felt she was being treated differently.

Kitagawa Taki chuckled and retorted, "Why would Lady Akako need something like this?"

Apart from Ai Haibara, who knew Koizumi Akako's identity as the witch, everyone else looked blank, not knowing what the two were talking about.

However, since Kitagawa Taki didn't give any, they naturally wouldn't give their own to Koizumi Akako either.

Koizumi Akako realized that Kitagawa Taki was teasing her and said disdainfully, "Hmph, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't."

She crossed her arms and turned to the side.

Although Koizumi Akako usually tries to appear mature, she is actually the same age as Sonoko and Ran.

"You all get some rest, I'm going out."

"Uh-huh."

Be careful!

……

Even Kitagawa Taki felt a chill after leaving the warm guesthouse.

The heavy snow continued to fall without stopping, and the snow piled up to a finger's width deep.

"Hiss, I hope you really exist..."

Kitagawa Taki turned on his flashlight. He couldn't use his spiritual sense all the time. Although his eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people and he could see clearly at night, the distance he could see was still limited.

He first headed towards the ridgeline where Xiaolan had discovered the Snow Woman, but after walking back and forth along the ridgeline, he found no suspicious signs.

So, Kitagawa Taki continued walking along the mountain path into the deep mountains.

Fortunately, the snow on the road wasn't too thick, otherwise it would have been really inconvenient.

At this moment, Kitagawa Taki felt a little envious of Koizumi Akako, who could fly. He was still a long way from wanting to fly!

……

Two hours later.

Kitagawa Taki has explored half of the mountain, but still found nothing.

As they made their way to the summit, Kitagawa Taki vaguely saw something flying towards him in the distance by the light of his flashlight. He quickly used his divine sense, and when the thing got closer, he realized it was Koizumi Akako.

Koizumi Akako flew swiftly through the air on a broomstick, finally stopping in front of Kitagawa Taki.

Why are you here?

Kitagawa Taki still wants Koizumi Akako to stay at the guesthouse, so that if the Yuki-onna (snow woman) appears there, she can lend a hand!

"What? Can't I come? I'm here to capture the Snow Woman." Koizumi Akako said, raising her head.

Kitagawa Taki laughed out loud; it turned out he had come to sulk.

"What's so funny? Let's see who takes down the Snow Woman first!" Koizumi Akako was always full of confidence.

"Wait a minute, it's only a little past ten o'clock. Where are Sonoko and the others?"

Kitagawa Taki glanced at the time; Sonoko and the others shouldn't be sleeping this early.

Koizumi Akako said, "Don't worry, your girlfriends are fine and sleeping soundly."

"What girlfriends? And what did you do to them?"

"It's just a sleeping spell; it won't do any harm," Koizumi Akako explained.

Then, he sneered, "Don't think I didn't see it. Besides that little girl, Sonoko, Ran, and your so-called assistant, none of them will escape, will they?"

Kitagawa Taki thought to himself, "You've really misjudged, and you've even overlooked yourself."

Seeing that Kitagawa Taki remained silent, Koizumi Akako assumed he was feeling guilty and gave a cold snort.

To everyone's surprise, Kitagawa Taki asked with a smile, "Are you jealous?"

"I...I'll eat your big head, you idiot!"

Koizumi Akako's face visibly flushed red, and after saying that, she prepared to leave on her broom.

Kitagawa Taki reacted quickly, leaping up and landing squarely on the broom.

"Let's go! The two of us together will be able to look out for each other."

On the way, Kitagawa Taki rested his chin on Koizumi Akako's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Can't you just fly?"

"Flying directly consumes too much energy. This magic broom is an item, so it consumes less energy." Koizumi Akako moved slightly. "Also, could you please not stand so close to me? Don't come looking for me if you fall down."

With Koizumi Akako's magic broom, the search for the Snow Woman was much faster. Before long, the two had searched the entire mountain, but still found nothing.

Kitagawa Taki felt that what the landlady said made a lot of sense. Those who tried so hard to find the Snow Woman couldn't, but those who never expected to suffer the consequences ended up in trouble.

"Let's go back!" Kitagawa Taki said softly.

"Ah."

Koizumi Akako responded, and the two flew towards the guesthouse.

They soon arrived near the guesthouse, and the two got off the broom.

Koizumi Akako stuffed the broom into her skirt, and the large broom disappeared.

Although Kitagawa Taki guessed that Koizumi Akako probably also had a storage space like his, he still couldn't help but take a few more glances at this unique way of storing things.

Hmm, I've only ever seen this kind of thing in anime in my past life.

Koizumi Akako didn't think there was anything special about her way of packing things. Seeing Kitagawa Taki staring at her skirt, she said irritably, "Do you want me to take off my skirt so you can see it all you want?"
