"Play the best in the world!"

   Elquite did not hesitate to praise his praise, his eyes bend like crescents.

   "How is your injury?"

   Higashino patted Alquette on the head, and asked with concern.

   "I have healed, just..."

  Alquette looked at the bloodstains all over his body, and then at Higashino who had been rubbed with blood by himself, and stuck out his tongue in embarrassment:

   "Sorry, I soiled your clothes."

   "You can buy the dirty clothes again, as long as you are fine."

   Higashino subconsciously said the words from his heart, and then found that Alquette looked at her eyes very hot, her face was flushed, and the red jade pupils were full of Higashino's figure.

  ...Why can't I control this mouth? Haven't you made up your mind to keep a distance from Alquette? Why did she still tease her... Higashino had the urge to cover his face with his hands, regretting what he had just said hastily.

   "Zhang, let's go shopping together tomorrow, I want to give you new clothes."

  Alquette hasn't realized the change in Higashino's mentality, and is still immersed in the happiness that has just been protected.

   "...Yes, but the person who pays must be me." Higashino subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after hesitating for a while, he reluctantly agreed.

Higashino needs to follow Elquet to watch her. One is to prevent Roja and the Templar from launching an attack on the frail Elquet, and the other is that Elquet, who doesn’t understand anything, acts alone to provoke her. What trouble caused Dongye to go to the police station to find people.

   "Hey! Why do I have to pay for the performance? I soiled my clothes, and I have to compensate the performance myself!"

   Alquette's eyes were very firm, as if he would not agree to anything.

   You don’t have to pay with fake bills, I’m sure to agree, please let the Japanese economy go... Higashino rubbed his forehead, and said to the stubborn Alquette in a coaxing tone:

   "Hey, don't make trouble, it's good if you have this intention."

   Higashino stretched out his hands to pinch Alquette’s two dull hairs, gently rubbing her golden hair.

   Elquite was like a cat being held by the back of her neck, her face blushing with blood, she lowered her head shyly, she didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of Higashino, and nodded insignificantly as she agreed.

   got Alquette done, Higashino looked at Tono Akiba and others who were watching them and asked:

   "Tell me in detail about the situation just now."

   Tono Akiba's hair has turned black again at this time, and the aura in his body is not as full of hostility as before, and he has obviously recovered his sanity.

   saw her take a step forward, put her hands on her chest, her face still lingering fear and said:

   "Not long after you disappeared, Nero came to the alley and attacked us."

"We are not Nero's opponents. After trying to resist to no avail, we can only retreat. Miss Elquet was injured in order to cover us. The three magicians who came with us died in battle. We finally fled to the park in a panic. ."

   "Fortunately, Higashino-kun, you arrived in time, otherwise we will feed the beast today."

   Tono Akiba ridiculed herself, and at the same time she glanced at Alquette, her eyes filled with gratitude and deep fear.

   Tono Akiba is not a blind man. After witnessing the battle between El Quét and Nero, she saw that El Quét was probably also a dead person, and his level was by no means low.

Elquette and the two deceased twenty-seventh ancestors appeared in this city at the same time. Tono Akiba can't help but wonder what Elquette has to do with Roja and Nero, and even vaguely feel that their Tono family is very It may be involved in a contest belonging to the twenty-seventh ancestors of the dead.

   It is necessary to find out the true purpose of the dead and Higashino, otherwise the Tono family may be destroyed in this disaster! Tono Akiba made up his mind. Out of the magician's thinking, Tono Akiba felt that Higashino must have an ulterior secret, and their Tono's were just pawns in Higashino's plan.

"By the way, Nero should be here for Miss Elquet. I remember that he said, "I finally found you Elquet" when he first met with us. Can Higashino-kun give us an explanation? "Akiba Tono's tone was slightly unpleasant, and he looked at Higashino with scrutiny.

   The Tono family, who died of three separate magicians, also suffered heavy losses. After all, it is quite difficult to cultivate a magician in the modern era of mystery and scarcity. As the owner of the family, Tono Akiha must discuss an explanation.

   Another purpose of Tono Akiba's question is to conceal his inner thoughts about investigating the truth, and to disguise himself recklessly, so as to reduce Higashino's vigilance.

   "Alquette, do you know why Nero wanted to kill you?" Higashino also wondered about Nero's purpose, turning his head to look at Elquette and asking.

"...I remember that Mei Lian told me to be careful of Nero's pursuit. The reason may be that I have offended many people in my previous actions, and there are too many people who want to kill me." Te recalled for a moment, and said with a relaxed face, not caring about offending others.

   "Nero is a mercenary, it is normal to receive a commission to chase you down." Higashino rubbed the hair hanging down his ears. Although he agreed with him on the surface, he felt that things were not that simple in his heart.

   After looking back, he wanted to ask Luvia to investigate the source of Nero’s employer, maybe it was Roa who had awakened to hire a murderer... Higashino made a secret decision.

   Higashino finally cast his gaze on Wuyue Yuzuzuka who was in a coma, his mouth moved, and he hesitated and said to Tono Shiki:

   "Send your classmate to the hospital first, she needs to take care of her body for a while."

   Higashino originally planned to use illusion to enter the memory of Yuzuka Mayu to see if there are any clues about Roja, but the other party is now in a coma, so Higashino can only give up this plan first.

   "Kun Higashino, I thank you for Yuzuka-san!"

   Shiki Tono bowed deeply towards Higashino with a grateful expression, then took out his cell phone and called the emergency number.

   "Let’s stop here tonight, Alquette and I will go home first."

   Higashino looked at the moon above his head, said hello to Tono Akiba, and took Alquette’s hand to leave.

   Suddenly, Higashino seemed to notice something and turned his head to look in a direction far away.

With the blessing of writing round eyes, Higashino can clearly see a blue-haired girl in a black monastic dress standing on a tall building 100 meters away. The girl is watching them, her black robe is blowing in the wind. Swaying.

   "The burial institution..."

   Higashino murmured in a voice that only he could hear, remembering the other person's appearance in his heart, and then used the technique of Flying Thunder God to leave.

  ……

   Time back to Tono Akiba and his party not long after departure, in the grass in the front yard of Tono's house, an inconspicuous toad was jumping and jumping to the side wall of the house.

   Under the cover of the night, Toad opened its big mouth, and a hand far beyond its size suddenly stretched out from it and pressed it to the ground!

   "It seems that the sneak was successful."

   Higashino’s head poked out of Toad’s mouth, his eyes swept around, and after noticing that there was no one around him, he pulled out all his body forcefully with both hands, and then waved to toad to leave.

   This Higashino who suddenly appeared at Tono's house is exactly the shadow clone that Higashino has ambushed in advance.

After meeting with Akiba Tono during the daytime, Higashino realized that Tono's family was likely to hide many secrets that could not be known by outsiders, and intuitively told Higashino that there might be clues that could catch Loya, so he stayed ahead of time. A clone intends to sneak into Tono's house to look for clues after taking advantage of Tono Akiba's departure.

Section 315 311. The Secret of Jade

   "Judging from the memory returned by the shadow clone of the deity, the hunting operation has already begun. I can just seize the staggered time to investigate the Tono family."

   Higashino's amber eyes radiated a bright halo in the dark night, and he nodded insignificantly, and then turned into a black cat using the transformation technique.

   In view of the fact that the Honzo Higashino is working with Tono's family, the investigation of Higashino avatar will not use the original face to show people. When doing such shameful things, it is always right to change the vest.

   The black cat walked gracefully and lightly, and walked along the outer wall of Tono's house to an open window and stopped.

   The black cat faced the window, exerting force on his muscular hind legs, leaning into the air, and landed on the window platform smoothly without leaving a sound.

  Perfect... Higashino is very satisfied with this jump, which shows that his ability to sneak hasn't regressed.

   The black cat was walking fast in the corridor of Tono's house, paying attention to every room he passed by, as if he was looking for something.

   Some of the magicians who stayed behind at the Tono’s house stayed at the gate of the Tono’s house, and some patrolled the house’s corridors. Higashino used illusion to hypnotize a passing magician without leaving a trace. After obtaining the necessary information, he deleted the magician's memory and gave him a hint that Higashino could not be seen.

   To deal with the second-rate magicians in these divisions, Higashino was not afraid that they would notice that they had been in illusion. Higash's illusion level was not high, but it was not something that a young guy could crack.

   Just like that, after hypnotizing all the magicians I met, the black cat turned into by Higashino swaggered to the second floor and stopped at the door of a room.

   This should be Jade's room... Higashino recalled the information he had obtained from the magician. Just about to knock on the door to trick Jade out, the door suddenly opened by himself.

   "Wildcat?"

   At the door of the room, the emerald head in a maid costume tilted, and his face was full of doubts.

"Meow--"

   Higashino made a meow, raised one of his hind legs and kicked his neck, acting like a real cat.

   Jade’s cold eyes rippled, her throat squirmed, her head poked out like a thief and looked at the corridor for a few moments, and then carefully carried Higashino into her arms and walked into the boudoir.

   The jade room is not big, it is a standard servant room. Apart from the simple furniture, the more obvious ones are the Naruto manga on the bookshelf.

  ...It's actually a fan of mine... Higashino Sashun's family is dumb, feeling a sense of guilt in his heart about what he is about to do.

"Meow?"

   Emerald made a cute meow, struck Higashino twice with his hand, and then put his face into the black cat and sniffed the smell of Higashino.

   Just when Dongyezuo was about to launch illusions on Jade, Jade suddenly hugged Dongyezuo far away, and said with both fear and disgust on his face:

   "It smells like a man, let's get rid of it as expected!"

   Does she actually hate men so much? I really didn't see it during the day... The black cat showed a humanized expression of surprise.

   Just as Jade was about to take away the black cat that Higashino had turned into and throw it away, she suddenly found that the black cat’s pupils had turned blood red at some point, and a pitch black pattern like a big windmill was slowly turning.

   illusion, writing round eyes!

   In the next second, Jade was dragged into the illusion space by Dongye, and the blue eyes instantly became hollow.

   Jade placed him on the bed stiffly under the operation of Higashino.

   Higashino used his paw to stroke the upturned fur, opened his mouth, and spit out human words and asked:

   "Do you have any secrets that you can only hide in your heart and cannot tell?"

   Jade's lips moved, and he paused and replied without emotion:

   "Master Zhigui died once, and the former Patriarch forbids us to talk to anyone."

   The black cat nodded unexpectedly, not surprised by the fact that Shiki Tono died once.

   Higashino remembers that one of the opening conditions for the Eye of Straight Death is to resurrect from death. Even in the two rituals, the Eye of Straight Death is awakened only after one death.

   "What's the specific situation?" Higashino asked.

"Master Four Seasons is crazy and wants to kill Miss Qiuye. Master Zhigui saved Miss Qiuye's life, and he was killed by Master Four Seasons." Jade's expression became painful, as if she was having a nightmare, although He was in an unconscious state, but Jade still felt uncomfortable only when he recalled that period of time.

   Master Four Seasons... Higashino heard the name of a person he had never heard before, and felt a little familiar.

   Four Seasons, Tono Four Seasons, who is he? Why did he kill Akiba Tono?

   Tonozo suddenly became interested, and he was very curious about the family ethics story of the magician's family. Remember that the tragedy of stripping the city is also a story unfolded by a green hat.

   "Who is Tono Shiki?" Higashino asked, shaking his beard.

   "Master Four Seasons is the eldest son of the Patriarch, and the elder brother of Miss Qiuye."

   "Where is he now?"

   "Master Four Seasons is dead, and was killed on the spot by the Patriarch who rushed over."

   Higashino was taken aback for a while, and immediately asked:

   "Did you see him die with your own eyes?"

   "Yes, I saw with my own eyes the former Patriarch who killed Master Four Seasons by himself." Jade replied affirmatively.

   actually died? So Tono Four Seasons has nothing to do with Roya, who has recently awakened... Dongye's tail flicks back and forth, and his inner thoughts are full.

   Generally speaking, the questioning of Tono Four Seasons should be over. After all, how does a dead person commit a crime?

   But intuition tells Higashino that this person is not easy, and Tono Shiki's name sounds familiar, unlike a passerby character who has played less than three episodes.

   "...Why is Shiki Tono resurrected again?" Higashino asked after a moment of silence.

   "I heard from my sister that it was Miss Qiuye who gave half of her life to Master Zhigui, and Master Zhigui could survive." Feicui Muna replied.

   Sharing life, rebirth!

   Higashino Suddenly remembered the ninjutsu that the grandmother Chiyo of Sand Ninja Village used to resurrect Gaara, both of which used their own lives to resurrect the dead.

   No wonder seeing Shiki Tono so empty during the day, because it turned out to be the reason for the lack of vitality. The words show that Ming Tono Akiba also lost half of his vitality, how it looks no different from ordinary people... Higashino nodded thoughtfully.

   "Do you have any secrets that you can't tell?" Higashino opened the next question.

   "I have male phobia. I am not afraid only when I face Master Zhigui. I seem to fall in love with Master Zhigui." A flush of flush appeared on Jade's cheeks.

   "……"

  淦! I shouldn't ask this question... Higashino covers the cat's face with his paws. He really envy these Japanese heroes!

   "Are there any forbidden places in Tono's house?"

   Seeing that there is no intelligence from Jade, Higashino decided to change his mind and take the initiative to find the secret.

   "The basement of the house is a forbidden area. The former Patriarch forbids me and Miss Qiuye to enter. Only my sister and certain servants can enter regularly." Jade said.

   Very good, this place hides a lot of secrets when you hear it, and it is worth exploring... Higashino's mouth is slightly cocked, and the whole cat's face looks very funny.
