Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends.

"By the way," Kudo Shinichi asked, "What happened at the scene where Mr. Nishiki was murdered? Was the blood on the ceiling really Mr. Nishiki's blood?"

Yesterday, the effect of the medicine suddenly expired, and he fell asleep before Youye came back. He didn't have time to ask in the morning, so he still didn't know what happened next in that room.

Sera Masumi swallowed the bread in his mouth and said, "No, the police checked after you went back. The blood on the ceiling was only in the center. In other words, the blood that dripped onto your shoulder was only Mr. Nishiki's blood."

"Everything else is just paint that was painted on long ago."

As Sera Masumi said this, he spread jam on the panel and continued eating.

"Also," Yuya added, "the murder weapon used to kill Mr. Nishiki was not found at the scene. Judging from the current situation, this may be a serial murder case, and the murder weapon may still be in the hands of the murderer."

Sera Masumi also said, "I thought the murder weapon would fall under those scripts scattered on the ground, but it didn't."

At this moment, Kudo Shinichi felt a darkness above his head, and the next second a dinner plate was placed forcefully on the table.

He was startled and looked up to see Mao Lilan looking at him with a gloomy expression.

"Lan, what, what's wrong?" Kudo Shinichi was sweating. He felt like he was going to be killed.

Mao Lilan said in a low voice: "I woke up this morning and found that you were not in the room. I was still worried about you, but you came here to have breakfast by yourself? And you were still discussing the case non-stop. Did you forget about me?!"

"Huh? No, no." Kudo Shinichi quickly recounted what happened in the morning.

Mao Lilan's face turned pale: "Heaven, Tengu? Did you see Tengu?"

"Well," Kudo Shinichi nodded seriously and said seriously, "So, Ran, you must not go out alone during this period. In case you encounter a Tengu..."

"Bang!" Kudo Shinichi was hit on the head. Miyano Shiho made a knife with one hand and said coldly, "Don't say such things to Xiaolan. It will scare her."

Kudo Shinichi chuckled. He would never say that he said that on purpose because of this.

"Don't worry, Xiaolan, there are no monsters in this world. You have to believe in science." Yuya comforted.

"Okay, okay." Ran Mouri shrank her neck in fear and completely forgot about complaining to Shinichi Kudo.

Could this be his original intention?

Sera Masumi blinked and asked suspiciously, "Ran, what you just said... made it sound as if you and Kudo slept in the same room last night."

"Huh?" Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment, waved her hands hurriedly, and stammered, "No, no! What I mean is, when I went to Shinichi's room, I didn't see him and Yuya in there."

Miyano Shiho sighed secretly and helped to explain: "Xiaolan, Yuya, Kudo and I went to see the stars together last night. It was too late when we got back, and we were worried about disturbing the students in the room, so we booked two other rooms to sleep in."

"I see." Sera Masumi said with a smile as if he had suddenly realized something, "I thought Xiaolan and Kudo slept in the same room last night."

"Well, that kind of thing is definitely not allowed before marriage!" Mao Lilan shouted loudly, which immediately attracted strange looks from the classmates around her.

They looked at Mao Li Ran, then at Kudo Shinichi, and all of them showed hidden smiles.

"Oh~" Sera Masumi let out a strange cry and smiled evilly, "But I only said a room, not a bed? Xiaolan, you are not thinking wrongly, are you?"

Kudo Shin's face flushed: "Ran, what are you talking about!"

Mao Lilan also realized that she had said the wrong thing. Her face turned red, steam came out of her head, and she buried her head in her chest.

Yuya shook his head secretly.

Miyano Shiho sighed slightly.

These two people are too easy to control.

At this time, Sera Masumi looked at Kudo Shinichi and asked, "Hey Kudo, can you tell me why you rolled up your sleeves?"

"Ah?" Kudo Shinichi looked at Sera Masumi in confusion, then looked down at his cuffs.

Sera Masumi rolled up his sleeves and said, "If you think your sleeves are in the way, you'd usually just roll them up like this, right?"

Kudo Shinichi felt a little guilty and explained casually: "Nothing, just a coincidence."

Sera Masumi smiled mysteriously and said darkly, "This tracksuit of yours looks like it was worn by a child."

Kudo Shinichi's heart jumped and he forced a laugh: "Don't be silly, there's no such thing as a child! Hahahaha."

Youye narrowed his eyes. This Sera Majun really has good intentions.

He deliberately found ambiguous points in Ran Mouri's words, causing Kudo Shinichi to lower his guard due to shyness, and then took the opportunity to raise the issue of the sleeves.

Now the way Kudo Shinichi is forcing himself to explain, it's almost as if the problem is written all over his face.

Sera Masumi wanted to ask something else, but knowing that he couldn't let her continue, Yuya interrupted and said, "Look at that poster, it seems to be a movie starring Aunt Keiko and the others."

A few people turned around and saw a promotional poster of "Red Shura Tengu" placed not far away.

Miyano Shiho cooperatively took over the topic: "It's a pity that the screenwriter Mr. Nishiki was killed. The movie may not be released."

Mao Lilan nodded in agreement.

Sera Masumi was successfully diverted to the topic and said with some anticipation, "I wonder what kind of story it will be."

Mao Lilan and Miyano Shiho looked at each other and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know. "As for this, we can only know after the movie is released. If it can be released..."

At this time, Yuya spoke up: "During the Jianghu era, demons suddenly appeared on the streets of Kyoto and devoured humans. This happened because the octagonal golden plate used by Tengu to seal the demons was taken away by the hero's wife and was used as a treasure to be presented to the general."

"A tengu enters the hero's dream and tells him that if he wants to seal the demon, he must let his wife embrace the octagonal golden plate and be devoured by the demon. Another option is for him to leap off the Qingshui stage holding the octagonal golden plate."

"The protagonist chose the latter, and when he jumped off the stage, he turned into a Tengu."

"The protagonist, who turned into a Tengu, saved his wife from being attacked by a demon and sealed the demons in Kyoto."

"On an evening dyed red by the setting sun, the hero met his wife for the last time and told her the truth that he had become a Tengu."

"My wife asked why we couldn't meet during the day so we could spend more time together."

"But the hero transforms into a Tengu, his face turning red with anger towards the demon, and his body stained with the demon's blood. Only the sunset can conceal his terrifying red."

"After the two kissed goodbye, the male protagonist disappeared under the red night sky."

“It’s such a poignant story.”
