Chapter 42
Conan You Really Aren't Afraid of Being Stabbed?

A few days later.

Having just returned by boat from Tsukiyomi Island in Izu.

Kogoro Mouri, looking weary, walked back into the detective agency.

"Finally back."

After returning from the festival in Saitama Prefecture earlier.

Kogoro Mouri found a strange commission sent to the agency while they were away.

Asking him to go to Tsukiyomi Island to investigate in a few days.

The commission fee was even paid in advance.

Before leaving, Kogoro Mouri did not forget to bring Conan, his apprentice, along.

"Eh, it's Sei-san!?" Ran Mouri saw Akihiro Sei arrive at the detective agency.

Akihiro Sei smiled, "I heard you were coming back today, you must be very tired.

So I brought some bento boxes over."

"Ah! This is truly amazing! Sei-san!"

Conan, listening from the side, twitched his lips.

Compared to him and Kogoro Mouri, Ran Mouri was full of energy.

On Tsukiyomi Island, she had been sightseeing and taken many photos of the island scenery, saying she would bring them back for Akihiro Sei.

Conan and Kogoro Mouri were busy searching for clues and solving the case.

Ran Mouri was more like a tourist.

After returning from Saitama Prefecture last time, after taking a few classes, she went to Tsukiyomi Island with Kogoro Mouri.

Ran Mouri hadn't seen Akihiro Sei for almost ten days.

After putting away her luggage, Ran Mouri couldn't wait to pull out a stack of photos she had developed on Tsukiyomi Island.

"Sei-san, look, I took so many pictures in Saitama Prefecture and Izu!"

She shared some of the beautiful scenery she had seen with Akihiro Sei.

"It's a shame, next time we have the opportunity, we should go together again."

Akihiro Sei looked at the photos, many of them were of Saitama Prefecture's festival attractions. He had taken pictures for Eri Kisaki as well.

But he still pretended he had never been there, and looked forward to it with anticipation.

Conan on the side, looked at Akihiro Sei with a strange expression.

He didn't expect this guy to be so natural at lying.

After all, the last time he saw the guest registration list at the front desk of the inn where the murder took place.

He saw the names of Akihiro Sei and Eri Kisaki.

After Ran Mouri cleaned the bento boxes, and Kogoro Mouri had already gone back to sleep soundly.

Conan went over to Akihiro Sei, "Speaking of which, what have you been up to lately, Sei."

Conan hadn't seen Akihiro Sei for a long time in recent cases.

He was starting to feel a little unaccustomed.

"I'm a consultant for the Hatamoto Foundation, you know, I'm always busy.

The head of the Hatamoto Foundation invited me to a few banquets."

Akihiro Sei was telling the truth.

Because some of the other foundation heads and company presidents who were close to Hatamoto Gozo.

Those who were the same age as Hatamoto Gozo were already old and weak.

But they saw that Hatamoto Gozo, who had been white-haired for so many years, was now more energetic than ever.

They naturally became interested and asked him about it.

After consulting with Akihiro Sei.

Hatamoto Gozo also brought a few foundation heads to Akihiro Sei to complete the soul transaction.

After gaining longevity, they, like Hatamoto Gozo, were rejuvenated.

They became Akihiro Sei's loyal servants.

However, Akihiro Sei had been monitoring Conan through the demonic aura.

In the past week, Conan, the Death God, had committed a few more crimes.

After the crimes took place, Akihiro Sei would walk over to collect the souls of the dead.

Mainly because Akihiro Sei found taking notes too troublesome.

Besides, the cases Conan had encountered recently hadn't involved any beautiful women, and he couldn't satisfy his seven deadly sins desires.

This time, the doctor, Narumi Asai on Tsukiyomi Island, was a cross-dresser, he couldn't go all out on a guy, could he?

But in order to collect the souls of the few victims after Narumi Asai's crime.

Akihiro Sei asked Hatamoto Gozo and those foundation heads to invite him to the banquet on the cruise ship.

It was in the waters near Izu.

Unfortunately, the lottery results for the souls of the few dead he collected during this period.

Besides one attribute point, they were all just ordinary items.

"Speaking of which. Dr. Agasa complained to me about you, saying that you keep taking a few brats to their deaths.

Even the little ghost called Mitsuhiko was beaten into the hospital by robbers?"

Akihiro Sei laughed.

The Junior Detective League encountered a group of robbers at a department store.

Although they held out until the police arrived and were rescued.

But the group of kids were severely beaten by the robbers.

Especially Mitsuhiko, who is still in the hospital recovering.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean I took them, it's clearly I was dragged along," Conan was also a little helpless.

The Maple Leaf Gold Coin case had kept the three kids quiet for a while.

But two days before going to Tsukiyomi Island, they were unlucky enough to encounter a robbery.

"Don't talk about me, what's going on between you and Sonoko, Sei."

Conan looked at Akihiro Sei with curiosity.

A few days ago, when Conan called Akihiro Sei on his phone.

He learned that Akihiro Sei was actually dating Sonoko Suzuki, and without bringing Ran Mouri along.

At that time, Conan, who was about to leave the detective agency, found Ran Mouri going out to look for Sonoko Suzuki.

He quickly fooled her by saying that Dr. Agasa had an urgent matter for her.

He was afraid that if she ran into Akihiro Sei and Sonoko Suzuki, her friend who was stepping on two boats would be unable to handle the situation.

Although he had a crush on Ran Mouri when he was still Shinichi Kudo.

But now Conan was focused on returning to high school as soon as possible and bringing Gin and the others to justice.

Because Akihiro Sei had helped him a lot, Conan was now very grateful to him.

He was actually very worried about how Akihiro Sei would handle Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki in the future.

"Ah? Didn't I say it already? I want them all."

Akihiro Sei was very honest.

Conan was shocked.

He thought Akihiro Sei was just joking when he said that to the Junior Detective League at the cafe earlier.

"You really plan to be a scumbag. Ran's karate is no joke, are you really so brave?"

You're really not afraid of being chopped with a cleaver. Conan remembered some of the Valentine's Day murder cases he had encountered before, and looked at Akihiro Sei with a subtle expression.

"Just kidding, I'm super brave, okay."
