Gensokyo Detective, but surrounded by Shura Field

Kaguya replied quite naturally:

“If you wear it, it can speed up the understanding of the Mars Law and also accelerate the fire element……”

“…………”

The voice stopped abruptly.

Kaguya's body froze in place.

Chu Bai, on the other hand, smirked:

“Sorry, buddy, I seem to have misremembered.”

“That gem was given to me by Miss Kaguya, not by you.”

Looking at the moon princess who was stunned in place.

Chu Bai's eyes carried a hint of a smile, and his eyes suddenly became incredibly wise:

“But buddy, how do you know the information about this gem?”

“Or should I continue to call you the Moon Princess, or Miss Kaguya Houraisan?”

Chapter 39: Bro, You Smell So Good…

As the famous detective of Gensokyo, Chu Bai had noticed something was wrong from the very beginning.

The place where he first met Kaguya was at Marisa's doorstep.

But that is the depths of the Magic Forest, filled with miasma and spores. Even if ordinary people get lost, it is impossible to get lost in such a place.

Not to mention her secretly glancing eyes, which were as obvious as a spotlight to the sensitive Chu Bai.

So Chu Bai immediately became suspicious.

After that, during the time he spent with Kaguya, he was also conducting various clever tests.

And as the tests deepened, the contradictions in her became more and more obvious.

For example, Chu Bai never introduced himself, but she accurately said Chu Bai's name.

For example, the time she appeared happened to coincide with the time promised by the Moon Princess.

For example, her attitude towards Chu Bai was as if she was a close old friend, without any defense. Even when Chu Bai personally helped her wipe her face, she only took half a step back and was not angry.

Combining various doubts and coincidences, Chu Bai immediately had a bold idea.

And just now, he finally truly confirmed the identity of the Moon Princess.

“Therefore, there is only one truth!”

“Your true identity is Miss Kaguya, who was shopping with me just now!”

Chu Bai pointed his finger casually, and the turbulent wind element emitted from his fingertips.

Kaguya on the other side of the screen immediately shook all over, as if struck by something, flew out and lay on the bed, no longer moving.

Seeing her action as if she had died on the spot, Chu Bai couldn't help but remind her:

“Pretending to be dead is useless, I can see everything clearly in the video.”

“…………Alas.”

A long sigh sounded.

Kaguya sat back at her computer desk and slowly took off the huge rabbit headgear.

Appearing in front of Chu Bai was indeed Kaguya Houraisan, who had been shopping with him during the day.

“That's quite a wonderful deduction.”

“That's right, I am Kaguya. Your good brother you always thought of is actually a genuine woman.”

Kaguya's voice was weak:

“I originally wanted to tease you with this identity, but you actually deduced it directly……”

“Of course, I am one of the best detectives in Gensokyo!”

Chu Bai proudly showed off his achievements:

“Like the Scarlet Devil Mansion theft case, the Scarlet Devil Mansion theft case, and the Scarlet Devil Mansion theft case… these intricate and bizarre cases were all deduced by me!”

“So you only solved one case in total! What kind of famous detective is that!”

Kaguya couldn't help but retort.

But after the retort, their atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

The two of them stared at each other, seemingly not knowing what to say.

Suddenly, Kaguya's heart sank slightly, and the situation she least wanted to see happened.

I'm afraid that in the future, Xiao Bai will only regard her as a woman, not a good brother who can talk about everything.

That's understandable, after all, her identity has been exposed, how can they possibly chat and play around as usual?

But it's really a pity.

It's not easy to make a deep friendship, and she really doesn't want to give up so regrettably.

“But having said that……”

Just as she was thinking wildly, Chu Bai suddenly spoke:

“Bro, you are really beautiful……”

“Eh?”

Kaguya was slightly stunned: “What did you call me just now?”

“Bro.”

Chu Bai said as a matter of course: “Didn't we agree to be brothers? Although having such a beautiful brother does make people a little nervous.”

Kaguya asked in surprise: “You don't mind my gender? Don't tell me there's already a sad, thick wall between us?”

“What's there to mind.”

Chu Bai shook his head:

“If we each have partners, then we really need to avoid suspicion.”

“But we are both single, you once said you don't plan to get married, and no woman can take a fancy to me.”

“So what's wrong with continuing to be brothers?”

Kaguya: “?”

No woman can take a fancy to you?

Do you have some misunderstanding about your charm?

Seeing Kaguya slightly stunned, Chu Bai continued confidently:

“Moreover, the brotherhood between us is stronger than steel and purer than white paper.”

“So don't worry about those unnecessary things, let's just continue to maintain the original good brother relationship!”

Looking at the young man's bright smile, Kaguya's eyes were slightly dazed.

But she quickly came back to her senses, and after gently exhaling, a smile reappeared on her face:

“I see, so that's what you think……”

“It seems I was overthinking it this time. Then let's continue to maintain the original relationship… bro?”

“Yes, yes, good brother!”

……

……

Kaguya's problem was successfully resolved.

She assured Chu Bai that she would definitely not be absent from the preliminary round next time.

And because of this mistake, she owed Chu Bai a favor, and he could ask for help if he needed it in the future.

Chu Bai also happily accepted this promise.

Nothing happened overnight.

The next day, Chu Bai made all the preparations and arrived at the Scarlet Devil Mansion early.

After all, it was about the restoration of the source of magic and ensuring that subsequent changes could be triggered to obtain rewards.

He was very concerned about visiting Patchouli.

“Hmm?”

However, just as he arrived in front of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, he saw a red-haired girl blocking the door.

This girl had a slender figure and was leaning against the door, fast asleep. Beside her was a sign that read [No Entry].

Chu Bai thought for a moment, it seemed that this girl was the gatekeeper of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

So he swaggered around the girl and walked towards the interior of the Scarlet Devil Mansion……

“Hey! Are you just going to ignore me like that?”

A complaining voice suddenly came from the side:

“I'm still a gatekeeper, even if you want to break in, at least say hello first!”

Chapter 40: Patchouli: I held you when you were a kid

Along with the girl's complaining voice.

A sudden whistling sound rang in his ears.

Chu Bai shook his head, dodged the attack, and then looked at the red-haired girl rather helplessly:

“Miss, you are so rude, actually attacking someone you just met……”

“The one who is really rude is you, right!”

The red-haired girl couldn't help but say:

“How can you just ignore the warning sign and swagger into someone else's house?”

“Uh, actually I didn't see it……”

“Liar! You just squatted in front of me and looked at it, even someone with a thousand degrees of nearsightedness can see it clearly!”

Unconsciously, she started to complain.

The girl took a deep breath and regained her composure:

“Anyway, my name is Hong Meiling, and I am the gatekeeper of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.”

“This is a private residence, no outsiders are allowed in, please go back.”

Chu Bai explained:

“My name is Chu Bai, and I'm here to visit the Great Magician Patchouli.”

“Oh right, I've been here before and helped you solve the book theft case.”

“Huh? It's you?”

Hearing Chu Bai say this, Hong Meiling finally remembered.

Immediately, she lowered her guard:

“If it's you, it's okay.”

“Hmm? What's okay?”

“Of course it's okay to go in.”

Hong Meiling said with a smile: “Sakuya had instructed before that you are an important guest of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, you can come here to visit at any time, and even stay here overnight is no problem.”
