Anime Crossover: Am I the only one who can see ghosts?

"Well, I might be the only one she's rumored to be dating, but there are quite a few people she's connected to, like the second-year Japanese language teacher, Narumi Kanai, and your classmate, Mugi Awaya. Oh, and it seems like the vice principal might be involved too!" Fang Yan explained, rubbing his nose.

Chapter 27

"???" This time, even Shinichi Kudo was dumbfounded. Holy crap, is it this chaotic?

Minagawa-sensei seems so gentle, but I never expected her to be so outgoing! And damn it, there's his Japanese language teacher and classmates among them, even the vice principal. Even Shinichi Kudo wouldn't know what to say in this situation.

So Minagawa-sensei's social circle is this complicated?

"By the way, it seems the head of the teaching department and the shop owner are also connected! You can investigate!" After thinking for a moment, Fang Yan added.

"..." Both Shinichi Kudo and Inspector Megure were completely dumbfounded. They had never imagined that Minagawa-sensei's private life was like this. Of course, the most crucial question was why Fang Yan, a student, would know so much.

You still say you have no relationship with Minagawa-sensei?

“You can conduct an investigation into this matter!” Fang Yan said to Sato Miwako, “Actually, although these things seem to be well hidden, there are still some people who know about them!”

As for my relationship with Mr. Minagawa, it's mostly hearsay; at least I'm a bit of a stickler for propriety in that regard! In my opinion, paying a classmate to help is better than dealing with Mr. Minagawa!

"Cough cough cough!" Inspector Megure coughed twice. They're still here. Is it really okay for you to do these things?

Although those things have become commonplace for them, many parents believe that their children are grown up after they turn sixteen and require them to go out and earn money on their own. This has caused many girls to go down different paths.

Moreover, because so many people do this, even if it's exposed, there doesn't seem to be anything shameful about it, since many people do it this way.

However, in the end, Inspector Megure said that he couldn't participate in such a discussion!

"Uh!" Shinichi Kudo gave Fang Yan a strange look, but did not deny it. Now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed that the rumors before were all about Minagawa-sensei pursuing Fang Yan, but being rejected by Fang Yan.

However, it seems that my own teacher might actually have a connection with Minagawa-sensei.

"Sato, go investigate!!" Inspector Megure took a deep breath and said to Miwako Sato beside him.

"Yes!"

Fang Yan silently scanned his surroundings, his brows furrowing slightly. There was a peculiar, ominous aura about the place.

This aura should be of the same origin as the black aura I saw before. These auras can be seen on Minagawa-sensei's wounds.

However, no weapon emitting the black smoke was found in the room.

At this moment, Arthur strongly suspected that this matter might not be simple, but rather related to a special murder weapon.

As for how Fang Yan knew about the people connected to Minagawa Akane, it wasn't because he was constantly paying attention to her, but rather because he detected them through astrology.

However, the murderer's words were blocked by the murder weapon.

"Fang Yan, what are you looking for?" Inspector Megure, who was usually just standing by and cheering, asked Fang Yan.

"I'm wondering what the murder weapon is. This wound seems a bit strange!" Fang Yan pointed to the wounds on Minagawa Akane's neck, arm, and even foot.

"This must be a special kind of samurai sword, right? It's just that this style is quite rare. Five or six hundred years ago, it was a weapon belonging to the nobility, and it was like this!" Shinichi Kudo said with a hint of pride.

"Using an antique knife to kill someone?" Fang Yan said meaningfully.

This time, Shinichi Kudo was also somewhat silent. He had been thinking about this matter before. If such a weapon were truly an antique, it would generally be well preserved.

He quickly said to Inspector Megure beside him, "Inspector Megure, go and investigate whether any similar real knives have been custom-made around here. Knives like these are very rare nowadays, and even imitations are rare."

"Okay!" Inspector Megure, acting as a mere tool, quickly instructed Inspector Shiratori, who was standing nearby, to conduct the investigation.

"And this knife should be in the school! It should even be in this building." After thinking for a moment, Shinichi Kudo continued.

The main entrance to the teachers' building also has security cameras, which is the source of Shinichi Kudo's confidence. Of course, if someone jumps out of the window, it's as if he didn't say anything.

However, it would be quite difficult to leave a school with a knife!

Even after a whole night had passed, Shinichi Kudo still had that kind of confidence.

Fang Yan did not deny it upon hearing this, but silently looked at the sky outside the window. The murder weapon was indeed still in the school, but at this moment, he had a bad feeling.

That murder weapon is strange! And the black mist in the sky seems to be getting thicker and thicker.

Just as Inspector Megure was preparing to assign people to investigate under Shinichi Kudo's command, his phone rang, and a look of horror crossed his face: "What? Dead?"

"What's wrong?" Shinichi Kudo asked quickly.

"Narumi Kanai is dead!" Inspector Megure said in a deep voice, "He also died in his office shortly before Inspector Sato went to look for Narumi Kanai!"

He then turned his gaze to Fang Yan: "Fang Yan, your suspicion has been temporarily cleared!"

"As expected?" Fang Yan revealed a thoughtful expression. This case seems to be getting interesting!

Chapter 28

"No, I don't think I can be cleared of suspicion for the time being!" Fang Yan shook his head and said, leaving Shinichi Kudo and Inspector Megure speechless. What kind of talk was that?! In this day and age, who would like to be treated as a suspect like this?

Could it be that he really wants to become the new high school detective?

However, after a little consideration, Inspector Megure nodded in agreement. After all, Fang Yan wasn't the only high school student who wanted to cause trouble, and perhaps Fang Yan could offer him some help.

Many people laugh at him, saying he's just a useless detective who can only solve cases, but they don't even look at his case-solving rate! Who cares how he solves cases? It's better than not being able to solve any cases at all, right?

"Inspector Megure, let's go to Mr. Kanai's place!" Shinichi Kudo urged Inspector Megure.

It wasn't because Narumi Kanai was his teacher that Shinichi Kudo paid special attention to him. After all, for him, the death of a teacher was nothing; he was just a teacher.

Rather, he felt that there was more to the story than that.

Soon, they arrived at Narumi Kaneshiro's office, which wasn't too far from the teachers' dormitory. However, the office was also sealed off.

Fang Yan could smell the blood from afar, and then he looked in another direction, scanning the area.

"What's wrong? Are you looking for the murderer? At this point, although the murderer might return to the scene, it's highly likely they've already left," Shinichi Kudo explained, having been watching Fang Yan closely.

"No, I'm wondering if the murderer will strike again at the school!" Fang Yan said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Shinichi Kudo's expression darkened. As a detective with a strong sense of justice, he did not want any more deaths to occur.

And it's very likely that it was his classmate.

This made Shinichi Kudo eager to find the culprit, and he quickly ran towards Professor Narumi Kanai's office.

Compared to Minagawa-sensei's death, Narumi Kanai's death was even more tragic; his limbs and head were brutally severed from his body.

"This?" Even the experienced Shinichi Kudo found this scene hard to accept, and said in a heavy tone, "Narumi Kanai's office is not far from the classroom, and Mr. Kanai's time of death should be within an hour, which is when most students are on their way to school."

The murderer must know Mr. Zhongjing very well; otherwise, the noise here would have attracted the attention of the students nearby!

"So it was someone you know who committed the crime? Could it be a love rival of Minagawa-sensei and Narumi Kanai?" Inspector Megure said in a deep voice, resting his hand on his chin.

“It’s highly likely!” Shinichi Kudo said in a low voice, “All the men who had connections with Minagawa-sensei need to be investigated one by one, and they need to be protected. They could be the murderer’s next target!”

"Perhaps!" At this moment, Fang Yan curled his lips noncommittally, "Ordinary people simply cannot dismember a body so easily, right?"

Even when Zhong Jingming wasn't looking, it was the same! Look at those wounds, many of them weren't cuts to joints, but cuts to the entire leg bone!

"So, this isn't just an acquaintance, but could also be someone skilled in sports or someone who has undergone professional training?" Inspector Megure looked at Fang Yan with suspicion.

I wanted to confirm my thoughts with him.

"I don't know!" Fang Yan shook his head slightly: "Perhaps it's not even human!"

"You're not going to say it's a ghost, are you?" Shinichi Kudo scoffed. As an atheist, he would never agree with such a statement.

This time, the method of murder was shocking, but Shinichi Kudo believed that he just hadn't figured out the other party's modus operandi yet!

Ghosts? They don't exist!

"This?" Inspector Megure's expression also turned serious. As a mid-level officer in this jurisdiction, Inspector Megure naturally knew some things that ordinary people did not.

Ghosts and monsters exist in this world! Just yesterday, a cat demon was killed!

Could it be that this time, it was also the work of ghosts and monsters?

This is troublesome! Inspector Megure doesn't know if firearms will even work on these ghosts. Should he call his superiors to report this?

He had already sensed that this matter was unusual.

Seeing the reactions of Shinichi Kudo and Inspector Megure, Fang Yan understood immediately. It seemed that Inspector Megure also knew something.

The people above didn't seem to intend to hide it for long, which was quite normal. Fang Yan had originally planned to keep his affairs a secret, but when he was looking through the Amazing Codex last night, he discovered that the current spiritual energy recovery was much more severe than he had imagined.

Moreover, there are indeed all sorts of extraordinary people in this world, but most of them are not as powerful as I am.

Fang Yan felt that he could reveal some of his identity, but not too much. He could completely disguise himself as a swordsman or a Taoist priest.

Based on what I know, this world already has cultivators and swordsmen with great strength, and with the revival of spiritual energy, some people will gradually undergo special mutations.

If he merely displays the power of swordsmanship, it won't have much of an impact! Just think about how Makoto Kyogoku and Goemon Ishikawa still appear in public, don't they?

Besides, his family isn't your average family!

Chapter 29

"Bang bang bang!" Just as Fang Yan was about to do something, several gunshots rang out in the campus. This instantly made Inspector Megure and the others' expressions change drastically. Gunshots had actually been heard in the campus, which was an extremely shocking thing.

After all, there's no freedom every day in the Sakura Prefecture!

The sound of wind, rain, and reading aloud; the sound of gunfire accompanies me as I read!

It's obvious that something serious has happened, maybe even a police officer at the school opened fire!

However, whatever the reason, things have definitely blown up!

In particular, Inspector Megure's face turned extremely ugly. Toyonosaki High School is no ordinary high school; it is home to the families of many high-ranking officials and nobles. What is going on here, firing a gun?

Before Inspector Megure could react, he saw Fang Yan open the window and jump from the third floor. By the time Inspector Megure reached the window, he saw Fang Yan land and run away.

This scene left Inspector Megure speechless; this Fang Yan seemed to be courting death!

However, as the gunfire continued, screams echoed throughout the campus, and Inspector Megure's expression grew anxious: "Kudo, leave this matter alone for now!"

He then said to the officers standing nearby, "One of you stay here and guard the scene. The rest of you, come with me!" After saying that, Inspector Megure ran to the stairs and quickly went downstairs.
