Chapter 185 Blue Castle
On the other side, the Edogawa boy took action.
He jumped down from the roof with vigor, came behind Sato Miwako, and patted Sato Miwako on the shoulder.
Sato Miwako turned her head in surprise when she heard this. After seeing the Edogawa boy, she was stunned for a moment, then took two steps back, pretending to be innocent, pitiful, and scared.
"You don't want to be hurt either, right?"
The Edogawa boy walked forward slowly, "Hurry up and hand over the money you have...otherwise..."
But before he could finish speaking, Sato Miwako kicked him out.
The whip kicked him directly in the lower abdomen.
The huge force kicked him back repeatedly.
Pain hit him, and he felt as if his lower abdomen had been slapped by a polar bear.
"action!"
Along with a shout, two or three figures suddenly appeared around.
Those people were wearing smart suits, and they should all be criminals from the Metropolitan Police Department.
"hateful!"
By now, the Edogawa boy, who was holding his stomach, finally understood what was going on.
Got hooked!
When he reacted, he was startled and immediately used Qing Kung to rush towards the roof.
"Don't run!"
Upon seeing this, Sato Miwako immediately jumped up, climbed over the wall, and then climbed up to the roof while holding on to the eaves.
The Edogawa boy immediately jumped to the roof of another house.
Sato Miwako chased after him and jumped over.
Although she didn't have the body skills of Edogawa Kid, Miwako Sato relied on her amazing jumping ability. She was only a few centimeters away from falling. She grabbed the eaves of another house and climbed over with the strength of her arms.
"hateful……"
However, since she couldn't keep up with her body skills, she could only watch helplessly as the Edogawa boy kept running towards the surrounding rooftops.
But just when she was about to give up, a white figure suddenly passed by her.
"It's him?"
Sato Miwako realized that the white figure was the guy who had just teased her a while ago.
…………
"That woman, what's going on?"
The Edogawa boy stood on the roof, panting and looking behind him in the direction of Sato Miwako. Recalling the scene where he had just been hit in the lower abdomen, he still couldn't help but feel lingering fear.
"You're really unlucky to meet the Rice Krispies shrew when you first came to Rice Krispies."
"Popcorn shrew?"
The Edogawa boy looked back and saw a man wearing a white robe and a black mask standing behind him, making a deep sound.
When he first arrived, he didn't recognize Rice Krispies Batman, but he was surprised that he didn't notice that the man in front of him appeared quietly behind him, and he didn't notice it at all.
Without thinking twice, he punched out.
Fujino easily dodged and dodged, then swept forward and delivered a quick and sure elbow strike!
Then, the Edogawa boy felt as if his chest had been hit by a dump truck. When his vision went dark, he fell from the roof and fell onto the asphalt road outside the wall beside the roof.
"Jet Kune Do really saves trouble."
Fujino retracted his elbow and glanced at the Edogawa kid who fell to the ground.
With a slight jump, his figure slowly fell down like a feather.
After testing it with his hands, and seeing that he was still breathing, Fujino took out a batarang from his pocket, and then stabbed the Edogawa boy hard in the butt.
After receiving an elbow blow from him, he probably wouldn't be able to wake up for a while.
But to be on the safe side, it's better to stab it with a bat dart.
Just when Fujino searched the Edogawa boy's body and found 500,000 yen in cash and some gold and silver jewelry, and was about to get up, a sense of crisis suddenly filled his heart.
This sense of crisis...is the Hidden Blade's sixth sense!
Fujino reacted and immediately drew his hidden sword, then turned around to block.
"clang!"
The crisp sound spread.
Miwako Sato, who caught up at some point, kicked the back of the Hidden Blade with a whip kick.
Huge force was fed back to Fujino's hand along the hidden sword.
But at this time, Fujino was already different from the past.
[Detective enhancement enabled]
Fujino forcibly thrust the hidden sword in front of him, and then Miwako Sato took several steps back under the same huge force.
"I didn't expect that I would meet you again."
Sato Miwako adjusted her figure and looked at Fujino with fiery eyes.
"What a coincidence, this rice flower shrew lady."
Fujino put away his hidden sword silently.
"Mihua...shrew?"
Miwako Sato's face suddenly sank when she heard this.
Why do these criminals like to call her a shrew?
Now she is about to be labeled as a tough woman in the Metropolitan Police Department!
"Okay, Miss Shrew, I don't have much time to tangle with you today..."
With that said, Fujino pointed at the Edogawa boy, "I'll leave this guy to you, I have other things to do..."
But before Fujino could finish speaking, Miwako Sato rushed forward.
Fujino frowned when he saw this, and in his sight, Sato Miwako's next move was clearly visible.
It was combat insight that triggered.
Seizing the right opportunity, Fujino stepped forward with his left foot and swept his right foot towards Sato Miwako's lower body.
Chest rest!
Miwako Sato's lower body was unstable, and she was knocked out by Fujino.
He landed in the air and landed hard on his butt.
After defeating Miwako Sato, Fujino didn't bother too much.
Press your toes slightly, and the soul wing skill is triggered.
The whole person was like a hero in a martial arts novel, leaping towards the rooftop nearby.
Miwako Sato sat on the ground, feeling a sharp pain in her butt.
She stared blankly at the white figure disappearing into the night sky not far away, and murmured to herself: "This guy... is a woman?"
…………
On the other side, after Fujino returned home with Soul Lotus, he sat up from the bed and covered his aching head resentfully: "Sure enough, controlling the flight of Soul Lotus consumes a lot of mental energy..."
Although the system's skill description does say that it will consume a lot of mental energy.
But the mental power consumed by Soul Wings...
It was beyond Fujino's expectation.
After the practice just now, if he is suspended in the air, his mental energy consumption will rise sharply.
In probably less than five minutes, his blue bar will be cleared.
A more cost-effective way to use it is to use the Soul Wing skill when jumping up to achieve an effect similar to Qinggong.
That thing consumes less blue bars.
But fortunately, with the apprenticeship and Fire Emblem's mental power recovery bonus, he should be fine if he is almost exhausted now and needs some sleep.
"This night, the harvest was really rich..."
Lying on the bed, Fujino opened the system interface and looked at the 4.8 million yen in the system balance, feeling satisfied and relieved.
One million yen for the arrest of the Edogawa boy was received.
He just found half a million yen from that guy.
When he came back, he also carried out a wave of robbing evil and promoting good, and got 100,000 yen.
That night, he earned a total of 1.6 million yen.
There are also some gold and silver jewelry that cannot be sold...for sale.
Under normal circumstances, he would go out to sweep for one night, and his ideal goal would be to sweep away one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand people.
After all, those robbers don't have any money on them.
Most robbers rob because they have no money.
…………
Early the next morning, as soon as Fujino got up, he received a package and a letter.
The package was signed with the new name Kaho Ri, and inside was the latest signed book of 1/2 Vertex written by her.
Another letter was sent to him by a man named Mamiya Takato.
The general content of the letter is that their family has an ancestral treasure hidden in their old castle. If Fujino can accept the entrustment, he will provide a commission fee of 1.5 million yen.
"A new detective career mission has been detected, please check it carefully!"
Just after Fujino read the letter, less than a minute later, the system prompt sounded in his ears.
[Detective Career Mission: Blue Castle Incident
Mission goal: Uncover the truth about the Blue Castle fire four years ago and arrest the murderer in the incident
Mission reward: 2 million yen, 200 detective reputation, 1 all-professional point]
"The Blue Castle case?"
Fujino recognized which case this was at a glance.
After all, the Blue Castle case is so classic.
"It's only 1.5 million yen... You are truly worthy of the Mamiya family."
Fujino put away the letter and accepted the system task.
A commission fee of 1.5 million, plus a system reward of 2 million, for a total of 3.5 million yen.
I have to say that the reward for this mission is really extremely generous.
…………
After accepting the system task, Fujino rode his motorcycle to the address marked in the letter.
On the way, Fujino hung his cell phone on the handlebar of his motorcycle and dialed Shizuka Hiratsuka's number.
After all, today is a school day, so I would really feel bad if I didn't say anything.
"Are you asking for leave again?"
Hiratsuka Shizuka on the other end of the phone seemed to have already understood Fujino's request for leave, and her tone could not have been more calm.
"It's like this. I received a temporary commission this morning, so I can't go to school today."
"I see."
Shizuka Hiratsuka seemed to sigh, "How many more days will you ask for this time?"
"Just one day, that should be enough... Let's not talk about it for now. I'm driving. I'll treat you to ramen next time."
Immediately, Fujino hung up the phone.
Hiratsuka Shizuka put away her phone, her eyes gradually becoming resentful.
Another temptation to treat guests to ramen, how could she refuse...
But having said that, it seems like Fujino has asked her to eat ramen many times, right?
She hasn't seen even a shadow of ramen so far.
This kid.
…………
The address mentioned in the letter is located in a deep mountain and old forest.
Fujino rode his motorcycle along the forest path and soon saw a magnificent building.
It was a tall castle with a blue roof and white walls. Around the castle, there were several tall towers, just like the towers where the princess was trapped in fairy tales.
It is worth noting that among several towers, one tower has turned into a gray ruin.
