Chapter 351 Tokyo
Chapter 353 Back to Tokyo
"Boom!"
The fire burst open instantly.
The community center has completely collapsed.
A sudden wave of heat swept outwards in all directions.
Uncle Mori and Inspector Megure, who originally wanted to go up and put out the fire, were forced to take several steps back.
Conan watched helplessly as the entire building collapsed before his eyes.
The rumbling sound in his ears, mixed with the sound of burning dry wood and flames, made him feel a little bitter.
"Chirp chirp"
But just then, suddenly, a little sparrow flew over from nowhere and landed on his head.
"Get away—"
Conan waved it away impatiently.
However, the tiny sparrow only flapped its wings twice in mid-air before landing back on his forehead.
"Chirp chirp"
He poked Conan's spiky head twice with his sharp beak.
"hiss-
—
Conan, who was already feeling extremely depressed, suddenly felt a sharp pain. He couldn't help but gasp and quickly chased the sparrow away.
"What on earth is this bird trying to do?!" Conan, wearing his glasses, glared at the sparrow that slowly landed on Ran's shoulder.
[Message]: Negative points from Conan Edogawa +1000
"That little brat dares to glare at me. Next time, I'll throw his underwear at the gate of their elementary school." Perched on Ran's shoulder, Wang Changsheng glanced down at Conan, then raised his head in a rather human-like manner, looking smug.
Conan was stunned by the behavior of these people.
However, Wang Changsheng didn't have time to deal with him right now.
His gaze, aided by the eyes of a sparrow, had already fallen upon the sea of fire.
"Did it work?"
He slowly took off and then rushed straight into the raging fire.
"Hey! Come back quickly, don't go over there!"
When Xiaolan saw Sparrow about to rush into the fire, she tried to stop him, but he easily dodged her.
"Pop"
In the blink of an eye, the sparrow's figure had disappeared into the sea of fire.
Conan: "(A) This—"
Conan also looked completely stunned.
I never imagined that a sparrow would dare to fly into the flames.
Is this a silly sparrow?
Even the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, and the fear of fire, are blocked by that stupid brain?
For some reason, Conan couldn't help but have this thought pop into his head.
"Chirp chirp"
As they entered the community center, which was now almost completely in ruins, the sparrow that Wang Changsheng was controlling couldn't help but sneeze, its feathers rumbling.
"How come the sparrows I summoned can sneeze? Is someone talking about me behind my back?" Wang Changsheng was surrounded by a stream of water.
It was a defensive line formed by clusters of water spheres.
And in order to slow down the rate at which the water evaporates from the intense heat.
He also wrapped himself in an ice shield.
Even the raging fire couldn't do any harm to the sparrow he had summoned.
"Here."
Wang Changsheng controlled the sparrow, which hopped and skipped into the music room.
By this time, only one wall remained standing after the place had been burned down.
The side facing the sea has collapsed, but surprisingly it collapsed outwards instead of crashing directly inside.
Therefore, Wang Changsheng immediately spotted Asai Narumi lying on the piano, her entire body engulfed in flames.
Although he was engulfed by blazing flames, there were still specks of light flickering around him.
The light contained an aura of holiness, giving people a sense of tranquility.
"God's glory and grace will not let you die, but whether you wake up or not depends on your own fate."
.
The sparrow controlled by Wang Changsheng chirped twice, and Asai Narumi's figure disappeared from the scene.
"It's so hot."
His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, his consciousness returning to his body.
Asai Narumi was thrown into the World Tree's Forest of Nurturing Life by him.
This divine forest is full of life, and his pets usually stay here.
Wang Changsheng placed Asai Narumi in a lake in the forest so that he could be nourished by a magical spring.
This lake is an integral part of the Forest that nurtures all life; it can almost be considered a sacred lake within a divine forest, possessing extraordinary vitality.
Moreover, when Asai Narumi was burned, Wang Changsheng had already used both the Glory of God and the Fifth-Level Magical Blessing.
This ensured he wouldn't actually be burned alive, preserving a sliver of life.
It's important to understand that the Glory of God, as a divine-level magic, is not as simple as it seems.
It can be used not only as a means of attack, but also to bring various buffs and blessings.
Therefore, Wang Changsheng felt that there was still a high chance that Asai Narumi could regain her senses.
Of course, there's nothing he can do if the child doesn't wake up, so he'll just leave it here for now.
"Sakura, Tomoyo, your parents say they're going back."
In everyone's eyes, Asai Narumi was already dead.
The community center burned all night, until everything that could be burned was destroyed, and the flames gradually died down the next day.
Although the police did not find the body, Inspector Megure searched the entire island but could not find Asai Narumi.
They could only conclude that Asai Narumi was dead.
Because no one sailed away from this isolated island last night.
With everything settled, the adults no longer wanted to continue their trip.
Furthermore, the police also need to arrest many people on the island.
They are not safe here.
"Okay, let's go back." Sakura nodded.
After they had packed everything, Yuanmei called over her luxury cruise ship.
"This trip is so strange, why have I encountered so many things?"
Xiaoying stood on the plank with Wang Changsheng and the others.
With the sea breeze blowing, I looked at Moonshadow Island, which was gradually shrinking.
Sakura sighed softly.
I think this trip was absolutely terrible.
"I think maybe it's because we ran into Conan and his friends," Wang Changsheng said casually.
"Huh? Conan, little brother? Why?" Sakura turned her head and glanced at Wang Changsheng, her dark green eyes filled with a hint of confusion.
"Hehe, who knows? Anyway, nothing good ever comes of running into them." Wang Changsheng chuckled.
Then he turned his gaze to a spot not far away.
He gestured with his chin in that direction and said to Sakura and the others, "Hey, Sakura, Tomoyo, look, your elders are arguing again."
Upon hearing Wang Changsheng's words, Zhi Shi and Xiao Lang all turned their gazes in that direction.
However, it's more accurate to say that it was Sonomi arguing with Fujitaka rather than Sonomi arguing with Fujitaka on her own.
"Do you think this trip I organized was terrible?" Sonoko glared at Fujitaka.
"No," Fujitaka shook his head gently. "You organized this trip with good intentions, but some situations arose that were beyond our control. How could I blame you? Actually, if you ignore everything else, the scenery on the island is quite beautiful!"
Fujitaka's magnetic and gentle tone made Sonoko blush slightly.
She quickly snorted and turned her head away.
"No need for polite words, you must be blaming me in your heart. Actually, I didn't expect these things to happen either." At this point, she suddenly paused and didn't continue.
Seeing this, Fujitaka couldn't help but continue to comfort her.
Wang Changsheng, who was eavesdropping nearby, frowned slightly.
He turned to look at Tomoyo, then asked, "Did those older brothers and sisters leave with us?"
Despite what happened on Moonshadow Island, Wang Changsheng did not see the group of people who disappeared after leaving the island.
They were never present when the statement was taken.
It was as if they weren't even on the island.
None of them, including Wang Changsheng, Zhi Shi, and Fujitaka, ever mentioned them to the police.
Therefore, Inspector Megure only assumed that a few of them had come to the island.
"I don't know about that, but it seems they're not on the ship this time." Tomoyo shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.
"Huh? Oh right! Where are those older brothers and sisters?" When she heard Wang Changsheng ask Zhi Shi this question, Xiao Ying suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a few of them.
However, she was so flustered on the island that she forgot about it for a moment.
"Aren't they here?——" Wang Changsheng turned around and looked in the direction of Fujitaka and Sonomi.
Sonomi's expression seemed very natural.
But when she was talking to Fujitaka just now, it seemed like she was hiding something.
Wang Changsheng thought about it and felt that Yuanmei and those diving guys must have some special connection that he didn't know about.
However, when Inspector Megure was searching for Asai Narumi's body, he conducted a thorough search of the entire island.
It's one thing that Asai Narumi wasn't found, since he was the one who took him away.
But those who had disembarked before them were not there either.
Did they leave first?
Or is there some other arrangement?
Wang Changsheng realized he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, so he stopped thinking about it.
Anyway, no matter what, it's probably partly due to Tomoyo's mother's arrangements.
What Sonomi wanted to do on this island was none of his business.
In short, it won't harm them.
What other people want to do is their business; he doesn't need to pry.
Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng stopped suggesting that Zhishi ask his mother.
"However, this trip was indeed not very pleasant." Wang Changsheng raised his head and looked at the sun-drenched sky.
After a moment's thought, he couldn't help but suggest, "How about we go on a trip by ourselves next time? Just the few of us."
"Huh?" Sakura blinked in surprise.
Tomoyo also looked over.
"Just the few of us?" Little Wolf looked calm, but his tone seemed to carry a hint of anticipation. "Where are we going to play?"
"Well, it's up to you, isn't it?" Wang Changsheng smiled slightly. "Anyway, we have the Anywhere Door, so we can go wherever we want without buying tickets, spending time on transportation, and naturally avoiding traffic jams."
In their past life, during every festival, both trains and airplanes were always packed to capacity.
However, with the Anywhere Door in hand, Wang Changsheng naturally no longer had such worries and troubles.
"Can I go too?" Reigen Arataka asked softly.
"Of course you can. You're my housekeeper. If you don't come with me, who will?" Wang Changsheng shrugged casually.
"I'm fine," Tomoyo smiled gently.
Her gentle and serene gaze would occasionally drift to the other side.
"But, should we bring them along next time we go out? They seemed really upset this time."
As Zhi Shi finished speaking, Wang Changsheng and Xiao Wang and the others all turned their attention to the side.
Then I saw the other side.
Conan, Uncle Mori, and Ran are standing in front of the railing.
The air pressure around the three of them was very low.
Wang Changsheng looked at them as if Tomoyo would occasionally pop up pink bubbles as a backdrop.
These guys were shrouded in a bunch of dark black lines.
"Oh dear, Ran-neechan, Conan-nii, and that detective all seem really unhappy."
Sakura could also clearly sense that Conan and the others were in low spirits.
That feeling of despair washed over her, causing her eyes to turn into beady eyes.
"Did anything happen after that? How did they end up like this?" Sakura asked, puzzled.
Wang Changsheng: "—Maybe they've realized they're a magnet for trouble; cases seem to appear wherever they go. Who wouldn't be confused?"
"Should we invite them next time?" Xiaoying asked Wang Changsheng.
"Let's talk about it next time. What if another murder occurs?" Wang Changsheng neither refused nor agreed.
Instead, he subtly reminded Sakura.
"(°—°) That seems to be true too." Sakura puffed out her cheeks. Under Wang Changsheng's repeated indoctrination, she recalled the times she had met Conan and the others before.
It seems that they have indeed encountered cases almost all of them.
Even when they planned to visit Beika Town last time, although they didn't encounter such a terrifying murder, they did run into a robbery.
Thinking of this, Sakura couldn't help but glance at Reigen Arataka, who was standing next to Wang Changsheng.
But it turned out that they hit it off.
(0□\)
Sakura quickly turned her head away.
"Pfft"
Watching the interaction between the group, Tomoyo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Tomoyo, what are you laughing at!" Sakura quickly changed the subject.
"No, I wasn't laughing at anything." Tomoyo shook her head, her eyes glancing between the noisy Fujitaka and Sonomi on the left and Conan and Uncle Mori on the right, who seemed to be under several layers of silence. She couldn't help but smile.
Achoo!
Suddenly, Uncle Mori, who was gazing into the distance, sneezed violently.
Xiaolan also came to her senses and couldn't help but ask her father with concern, "Old man, what's wrong? Did you catch a chill from the wind?"
Conan nodded listlessly, "Yeah, Uncle Mori, you mustn't catch a cold, or it'll be terrible if you infect me or Ran."
Uncle Mori was about to wave his hand when he heard his daughter showing concern for him.
Conan's sudden remark caused Conan's hand, which had been about to wave, to clench into a fist the size of a sandbag.
"Thump!"
A muffled sound rang out.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
