Chapter 124 Pulling out the cards?

"Nani?!"

The gangster who was cast into a bad luck spell by Wang Changsheng was suddenly startled by a cat that suddenly jumped out.

He was running in front, but in order to avoid the cat and not kick it away, he tripped over his left foot and fell to the ground.

When the aunt who was still behind Wang Changsheng and others saw this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she wanted to run forward screaming.

But the next moment, the man got up and rushed into an alley.

When everyone arrived, they saw only a bag lying quietly on the ground.

As for the people, they disappeared.

This phenomenon could not help but trigger heated discussions among passers-by.

"Isn't this a dead end? How could such a living person suddenly disappear?"

"Yeah, it's really strange. And this guy is running too fast, right? When he ran towards us just now, I felt like he was teleporting, rushing forward again and again."

"You feel the same way? I didn't see him clearly. I just noticed him and he disappeared."

"Whose child is that? He looks like he's still in high school."

"I don't know him. There are so many people here, who knows where he comes from? He might be a college student who went to study in another city."

A group of passers-by gathered at the entrance of the alley. After a while, sirens were heard in the distance.

"Make way, make way, we are the police! Everyone disperse!"

A low and somewhat powerful voice sounded, and the next moment, the people around him scattered like birds and beasts.

Wang Changsheng, Chise and Xiaoying were standing in the crowd. When they saw the police arriving, they followed the crowd and walked to the side.

"Did you sense it? It's indeed the scent of the Clow Cards." An Osaka accent came from the basket that Tomoyo was holding.

"Hmm... I sensed it." Seeing the man disappear into the alley, Xiaoying nodded gently, and then couldn't help but look at Wang Changsheng beside her. A bit of worry appeared on her pretty face, "Xiao Wang, that person is gone. What should we do now?"

Hearing this, Wang Changsheng shook his head, gently squeezed Xiaoying's hand, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I cast a spell on that person, he can't escape."

The magic of 'Bad luck for me' can make the person who is affected by it have bad luck for a period of time, and the target will feel that the whole world is against him.

It is very likely that something like tripping while walking, falling over a wall, or having a tissue soaked in suspicious liquid hit your face will happen.

And, more than that.

Wang Changsheng can also roughly sense the location of the person who is under the spell through his own magical aura.

"If it's the Clow Cards, what card can make people teleport instantly?" Wang Changsheng's eyes fell on the basket in Zhishi's hand.

The crowd around was noisy, chattering, and saying all kinds of things.

Not to mention magic, some people also mentioned words like gods and weird.

Therefore, Wang Changsheng's quiet discussion with Zhishi and the others would not arouse anyone's suspicion at all.

Xiao Ke's hesitant and uncertain voice echoed from Tomoyo's basket: "Teleportation... has a certain range, but I'm not sure if it's that card, because some Clow Cards can barely achieve this effect with their own means."

"But if you want to truly exchange magic power for abilities, there's only one card..." Xiao Ke paused, then continued, "That card is called THROUGH!"

"But it's a bit strange. I remember that the function of pulling out a card is to pass through walls. The man disappeared in the dead end, which is indeed consistent with the function of pulling out a card, but how could he teleport on the street?" Xiao Ke was still a little puzzled.

Sakura looked puzzled when she heard a new card, "Pull out a card?"

Why does this name sound so weird?

She looked at the basket and asked, "Xiao Ke, what does pulling out the card do? Does it teleport you?"

"No, strictly speaking, the function of the card puller is to penetrate walls. The more magic power you have, the thicker the wall you can penetrate. This is its true ability." Xiaoke's voice sounded.

"A card that can go through walls?" Wang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. "Can it go through any wall?"

"Huh?" Xiao Ke was a little stumped by Wang Changsheng's question. "Should be, right?"

Wang Changsheng: "...Xiao Ke-chan, you are really unqualified as a sealed beast."

"Those are the cards made by Kuro, not me. He made so many cards, how could I possibly know the specific and detailed functions of each card!" Xiao Ke yelled in dissatisfaction.

"Tsk, if you had spared some of your sleeping time to communicate more with the Clow Cards, done a good job of grassroots communication, and stabilized the sentiment of the card crowd, you wouldn't have such a superficial understanding, and those Clow Cards might not have all flown away!" Wang Changsheng expressed disdain.

Chise, who was holding a camera at the side, basically didn't say much, but after listening for a while, she tilted her head, with her long black hair hanging down, looking playful and cute.

Zhishi looked at Wang Changsheng and Xiaoying and raised a possibility: "Do you think it's because the person just now mistook the air for a wall?"

"Eh?!"

Zhishi's words woke Wang Changsheng and Xiaoke up.

Only Sakura was still confused about why the name of this card was so strange, as if it had nothing to do with its function.

Xiao Ke sat in the basket with legs apart, one small hand supporting his large head, a look of deep thought on his face. "Yeah, the air wall... seems to be a wall too. So if that's the case, then the card can indeed be called a card that allows people to teleport."

Wang Changsheng also nodded: "The air wall is a wall, the water wall is even more of a wall, and any other random things that block one's progress can basically be called a wall."

"You mean, the card was taken away by that person? What should we do then? If he wrote his name on the card, wouldn't this Clow Card become his?" Sakura's expression was a little anxious, and her eyes fell on the basket. "Xiao Ke, if someone wrote their name on the card, is it possible to get it back?"

Xiao Ke's voice could be heard from within the basket: "No more. The names on the cards are written, and the owner of that name is the owner of the Clow Cards. This will never change."

"Ah? Do we still have to get this Clow Card back? Xiaoke, you better think of a solution quickly." Sakura asked anxiously, lowering her voice.

Sighing, Xiao Ke also gave an answer: "If you want the cards to return, there are only two possibilities. One is that the owner of the cards voluntarily gives up and erases his own name. As for the other..."

"What's the other method? Xiaoke, just tell me quickly, why are you still hesitating here!" Sakura urged.

"That is... the owner of the cards died..." Xiaoke's somewhat tired voice sounded, sounding very dull.

Upon hearing this, Sakura's body stiffened.

"Death...death?" She couldn't believe it. In order to replace the owner of the Clow Cards, did she have to restore the death of the original owner?

Xiao Ke nodded his big head in the slightly translucent basket. "That's right. Clow Reed died, so you were able to inherit the Clow Magic Book and seal and capture the Clow Cards. So if this person also has a Clow Card, then unless they voluntarily give it up, they can only wait until they die."

As if sensing that Sakura had opened her mouth to ask something, Xiao Ke gave the answer in advance: "Apart from these two results, there are no other possibilities."

Tomoyo held up the camera in her hand, and a question arose in her mind: "But Sakura is the Clow Card Master. Isn't she the only one who can seal the Clow Cards?"

Sakura was also stunned when she heard this: "Yeah, I didn't even seal the Clow Cards, how could he have written his name on them?"

"As for this question..." Xiao Ke's mouth twitched, "Not all cards need you to seal them!"

"Huh?" Sakura was stunned again.

Wang Changsheng understood: "Xiao Ke's meaning should be that only the Clow Cards that have transformed into their true form and are about to return to the form of cards need to be sealed with your magic wand, but not all cards are like this, for example..."

Tomoyo also understood: "For example, the two Clow Cards we captured at Sakura's house are the best example."

"That's right." Xiao Ke nodded his big head in the basket, but no one could see it.

Listening to their explanations, Sakura recalled the two cards she found at home and seemed to understand something: "Oh, is that so? Then I understand..."

The two latest cards she collected were the Rain Card and the Tree Card.

She sealed the Rain Card because it was resistant to being transformed into a card again.

But tree cards are not.

The Tree Card transformed into a card by itself, just like the Wind Card which did not transform into its original form in the beginning.

Thinking about it this way, Sakura understood the reason.

"Eh? Why are you here?"

Just as Wang Changsheng was about to leave the crowd and sense the man's direction, a voice suddenly sounded beside them.

Chapter 125 Kitahara Iori?

"Huh? Officer Megure? It's you."

After hearing the sound, Wang Changsheng, Xiaoying and the others turned around and saw a fat man wearing an old-fashioned windbreaker and a round hat on his head standing not far from them.

This person was none other than Inspector Megure, whom they had met when the vicious incident occurred at the amusement park.

Because at that time, Wang Changsheng and his three-member group were led by Xiaolan.

Since Xiaolan is the daughter of Kogoro Mouri, she already knows the police. In addition, she is being taken care of by Shinichi Kudo, so she is naturally very familiar with Inspector Megure.

That's why Inspector Megure had some impression of the three children: Tomoyo, Sakura and Wang Changsheng.

"We were here shopping and happened to meet Uncle Maori and Sister Xiaolan. We had just separated because they were going to handle the admission procedures for a little brother. We didn't expect to encounter such a thing as we turned around." Wang Changsheng explained to Inspector Megure.

"Brother Mori and the others are here too?" Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure was stunned.

After a pause, he lowered his head and looked at Wang Changsheng and the others with some surprise: "Aren't you from Tomoeda Town? Why are you shopping in Beika Town? Are you accompanied by an adult this time?"

Sakura also looked at the chubby policeman and said, "Because these two places are very close, such a short distance, and it's the weekend, we thought of having some fun~"

"That's true." Inspector Megure nodded.

He had routinely questioned Wang Changsheng and the others at the amusement park, so he knew where they lived. However, he didn't have any particularly deep impression of Tomoeda Town, as if it had popped up out of nowhere.

But he didn't find it strange. After all, Tokyo is so big, Beika City is so prosperous, and Beika Town is even more populous.

It is normal that there are some unknown small places around.

Inspector Megure didn't take this matter to heart.

He simply instructed Wang Changsheng, Xiaoying and the other two, "You haven't even told me yet, and you're out playing by yourselves again. Are your parents with you? If not, even if we're close, we're still far away from you. Do you understand? Go home quickly."

The three of them said in unison: "We understand."

After a pause, Wang Changsheng looked at Officer Megure and asked curiously, "But, wasn't there only one robbery here? Why did you come here, Officer Megure?"

"Oh, someone made a false alarm to us, saying that someone was attacked here and his life might be in danger. We rushed here because they clearly stated the time and place. But when we got here, we found nothing happened." Inspector Megure said casually, but he reacted immediately.

How could I tell a little kid what happened in the team?

It seems that I was too distracted. No, I have to be serious!

Inspector Megure touched his nose and coughed twice.

But this was just a false alarm after all. Apart from the attempted robbery and the person running away, no other murders had occurred here. This made him feel very relieved.

So now that I've said it, it's no big deal. I'll be sure to pay attention next time.

"In short, you should go home quickly and don't hang around here. Someone's bag was stolen just now. Aren't you afraid that you will be targeted by bad guys too? Go, go, go." Inspector Megure drove Wang Changsheng out like he was driving away a puppy.

Sakura and Tomoyo naturally followed him.

Feeling the power coming from behind, Wang Changsheng's eyelids jumped: "I understand, Officer Megure, you don't have to push me like that~!"

There were three of them, but Inspector Megure only pushed him on the head.

You don't bully little girls, you are noble, you are making fun of me!

"Officer Megure, we checked the nearby surveillance cameras and found no trace of the robbers. The surrounding surveillance cameras are old and some are broken."

Just then, several uniformed policemen came over and reported the situation to the chubby Inspector Megure.

"After our on-site investigation and communication with personnel, it is very likely that this was an ordinary robbery, and we did not find the situation described by the caller."

After hearing his men's reports one by one, Inspector Megure nodded. "Is that so? Then arrange for a few people to tell the comrades over there to hand this case over to them. Okay, search the scene again, preserve all the evidence, and hand this woman over to them, and then call it a day."

Seeing that Officer Megure looked like he wanted to pack up and go to the internet cafe, Wang Changsheng chuckled, "Then we'll leave first, Officer Megure. You guys go ahead and get busy."

Officer Megure nodded without saying anything more: "Okay, be careful and go home quickly."

After saying goodbye to the police, Wang Changsheng took Xiaoying and Tomoyo to follow the scent of the bad luck technique.

Just now, when Inspector Megure saw that no one died during this police call, his face was filled with joy.

But are things really that simple?

Wang Changsheng felt that the person who called the police might not have made a false report, but the location where the report was made overlapped with the robbery that happened on their side, which led to the police's wrong judgment.

Conan is nearby, is there really no one there?

Wang Changsheng didn't believe it.

But he was too lazy to care. This was the police's business, and he really didn't notice any unusual aura around him. He couldn't be sure whether a murder had occurred or not.

Anyway, Uncle Maori and Conan are nearby, so if anything happens they will encounter it too, so there is no need for me to meddle in other people's business.
