Chapter 493: A Request from Mao Lilan, Supernatural Events at Teitan High School
The next morning, Yuya and Miyano Shiho came to school. When they were about to change their shoes, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko also appeared.
Mao Lilan showed a surprised expression when she saw Yuya: "Yuya, you finally came to school!"
Youya looked at her with some confusion: "What's wrong?"
Mao Lilan had a frightened expression on her face: "Where have you been these days?"
Yuya subconsciously glanced at Miyano Shiho, who quickly looked away.
He looked a little embarrassed, scratched his cheek and said guiltily: "Well, I received a commission and went out temporarily."
Suzuki Sonoko withdrew her gaze from Miyano Shiho and looked at Yuya with some suspicion: Why did she feel that these two people seemed to have some changes?
But she couldn't tell what it was.
"I see," the simple-minded Mao Lilan did not think much about it, but said, "Yuya, do you know about the supernatural events that happened in the school recently?"
Youya was stunned: "Supernatural incident?"
"Yeah, everyone says it was caused by a student who came to school early in the morning two years ago but died in an accident."
Two years ago? Youye stroked his chin. He remembered this incident. It happened not long after he entered school. However, he had investigated it at the time and it was indeed an accident.
There is definitely no such thing as supernatural events. If such a thing really happened, it is most likely because there was a hidden story behind the accident that year, and someone who knew the truth deliberately made it up in order to draw people's attention to it.
Could it be that his initial judgment was wrong?
But since he was a famous detective, why didn't they just ask him to investigate the accident again? Was it because he had said it was an accident at the beginning, so they felt that they couldn't trust him?
No, a supernatural incident, two years ago... Yuya always felt that it sounded familiar, like a plot in an animation? But because it was not the main plot, he couldn't remember it clearly.
So he asked, "What is the specific situation? Tell me?"
Before Mao Lilan could answer, two boys came over.
"Mauri, you don't want to ask Kamiya to investigate that supernatural incident, do you?" one of the boys asked.
"Is this true?" Another boy suddenly made a face at Mao Lilan, "Come here, the monster is looking for you~"
Mao Lilan showed a frightened expression: "Don't say such horrible things!"
The two boys burst into laughter immediately.
Suzuki Sonoko couldn't stand it anymore, so she put her hands on her hips and asked, "I say, you two, did you pass the make-up exam?"
The two boys laughed and said, "We just barely passed the qualifying line. It was a close call!"
"Yes, yes. Otherwise, I will have to go back to school for extra lessons during the holidays. It's scary just thinking about it! What if I encounter a monster..."
"Enough, you two, stop it!" Mao Lilan was a little angry.
The two boys pushed each other and left laughing.
"Really? Why are all boys acting the same way?" Suzuki Sonoko cursed angrily, then suddenly thought of something and gave Yuya an apologetic smile, "Yuya, I'm not talking about you."
Yuya was about to say it was okay, but Miyano Shiho suddenly said, "It's okay, this guy is not much better."
Yuya:? ? ?
Suzuki Sonoko was a little dazed. One was her childhood sweetheart, and the other was her new best friend. She didn't know which side to help for a moment. She could only laugh dryly a few times and get away with it.
Yuya looked at Mao Lilan: "So, what is the matter with the supernatural incident?"
Mao Lilan looked around and whispered, "I've also asked Conan to help with this matter. Can we talk about it after school?"
Yuya was a little confused, but he nodded.
···
Time passed quickly and soon it was evening.
A few people first went to the school gate to pick up Conan, and then went to the gymnasium warehouse together.
Yuya glanced into the warehouse, put his hands behind his head, yawned and asked, "So, now you can tell me, right? The supernatural incident?"
Ran Mouri shrank behind Suzuki Sonoko with a frightened look on her face.
Suzuki Sonoko put one hand on her waist and pointed at the warehouse in front of her with the other hand, as if telling a horror story: "First is the gymnasium warehouse that makes a sighing sound. It is said that on a rainy morning, some girls from the gymnastics team came here to prepare for morning exercises..."
As she was talking, she suddenly turned to Mao Lilan and said in a terrifying tone: "As a result, they suddenly heard someone crying in the warehouse where there should be no one!"
Yuya couldn't help but yawn: "And then?"
Suzuki Sonoko ran into the warehouse and said, "They were so scared that they ran away. By the time they got other people to come over, the crying in the warehouse had disappeared. All that was left was..."
She pulled aside a piece of white cloth beside her, revealing a set of desks and chairs: "The only thing left is a desk!"
"It's the desk left behind by Hosaka Hideaki, the boy who died mysteriously in school two years ago!"
Conan droops his eyes: Isn't this too exaggerated? Who would believe...
"Ah!" Ran Mouri was startled and lifted Conan up to block in front of her, as if this could help her deal with the horror.
Conan was hanging in the air with a frown on his face, his legs hanging down weakly - well, he took back what he had just said, there was indeed a person here who was very afraid of ghosts.
Miyano Shiho was not afraid at first, but Suzuki Sonoko's ability to create the atmosphere was so strong that she subconsciously leaned behind Yuya.
"It's not a mysterious death." Suddenly, a girl's voice came from outside the door.
When they looked over, they saw a short-haired girl with a heroic appearance standing outside the door.
She frowned and looked at them with dissatisfaction: "Hosaka-san died in an accident. There is no such thing as a demon or ghost. Please stop spreading weird rumors, okay?"
Mao Lilan was a little surprised: "Sister Shumei?"
Because the light in the warehouse was dim, she couldn't see clearly at first. After seeing the face of the person who was speaking, Tsukamoto Kazumi showed a surprised expression: "Mori-san? Why are you here? If I remember correctly, the karate club shouldn't have training today, right?"
"Hey, senior sister Shumei." Youya raised his hand and greeted her.
Tsukamoto Suzumi's eyes lit up: "Kamiya-san? What a coincidence that you are here too. There is no one in the karate club today. Do you want to spar with me?"
Yuya's mouth twitched slightly: "No, no need, I have other things to do..."
Miyano Shiho glanced at Tsukamoto Suzumi and whispered to Suzuki Sonoko beside her: "Who is she?"
Suzuki Sonoko whispered, "Senior Tsukamoto Suzumi, who is in the third year of high school, used to be the leader of the karate club. She once lost to Yuya in a karate competition..."
"I see." Miyano Shiho suddenly realized.
Suzuki Sonoko chuckled: "You care so much?"
Miyano Shiho shook her head and said calmly: "I just haven't seen her before, so I'm a little curious..."
"Oh~ I'm curious~" Suzuki Sonoko stretched out the last syllable.
Miyano Shiho glared at Suzuki Sonoko with some amusement.
