I, Kudo Shinichi, the rice flower death god

For example, now, the only thing that can limit his coding speed is the response time of the keyboard and the computer's processor.

"I wonder what's going on with Xiaolan?"

Picking up the still-cooled coffee, Shinichi walked to the window and murmured softly.

He had not entered the Mori Detective Agency with Eiichi Yamagishi and Yoko Okino before.

Although he didn't snatch Mouri Kogoro's commission or business like other detectives, it was like a mismatch, and the good-for-nothing uncle always disliked him.

It was clear that he was incompetent and unable to complete the commission, but he could always put the blame on him.

So Shinichi rarely goes there.

Especially when a commission came to him like just now, Mouri Kogoro would always be like a big rooster guarding his cubs. No matter how he acted, he would always stare at him, for fear of snatching the commission.

But without him, can that good-for-nothing uncle really complete the commission?

Shinichi was very doubtful about this.

If it was just a matter of simply investigating a stalker, there should be no problem. A big star wouldn't be related to any murder case, right?

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway."

Shinichi had no intention of intervening in this matter.

He remembered clearly when Yamagishi Eiichi interrupted his confession to the little angel.

If you didn't go to the other party's house, you would be considered kind. How could he kindly take the initiative to help solve the problem?

Do you really think that this young master is a good person?Give me a break!

But it's still early, and since we don't have to go to school during the holiday anyway, we might as well go out for a walk.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, the night in Mikka Town!

Opening the window, the cold night wind rushed in, lifting the curtains and messing up his hair.

"Next, just take a good rest at home, myself."

Shinichi whispered to himself, then a kite turned over and climbed from the window to the roof.

In the bedroom, a person exactly like Shinichi was lying on the bed calmly, falling into a deep sleep.

No, it would be more appropriate to call it a loss of consciousness rather than a deep sleep.

And that consciousness, that is, the soul, has jumped several times and arrived on a tall building.

With the bright moon in the sky as the background and looking at the familiar land beneath his feet, Shinichi couldn't help but smile with a nostalgic smile.

Mihua, your god of death is back.

In the residential area of ​​Mikka Town, there are almost no people on the empty streets.

Occasionally, there are office workers who come home late because of overtime work. They are also in a hurry and just want to go home early.

The crime rate in Heianpingan Mihua Town is several times higher than that in other places. Although it does not cause any panic, it will somewhat increase people's vigilance.

For example, don’t hang out outside late at night, don’t take the less traveled paths, don’t easily make enemies with others, etc.

Therefore, to a certain extent, Yoneka Town can indeed be said to have simple folk customs.

After all, no one wants to be killed by others just because of a small friction or dispute.

Whether it’s a nod to show goodwill between strangers, a daily conversation between acquaintances, or a comment on interests between like-minded people.

Anything that might be a motive for murder will be deliberately avoided, making daily communication more comfortable.

This has led to the murder motives of some of the murder cases that Shinichi has been exposed to recently becoming more and more outrageous each time.

After leaving the residential area, he went directly to the aquarium where he and Xiaolan had played during the day.

A murder occurred here just a few hours ago.

But because Xiaolan was nearby, he chose another route and did not get involved in this case.

Of course, Shinichi's return to the scene is not because he wants to solve this case on a whim.

"Sure enough, it's still here."

In one of the ocean tunnels, an illusory and hazy figure stood there quietly, with a dull face, as if he had not yet figured out what was happening to him.

Indeed, although at first glance he looks just like an ordinary person.

But if ordinary people are 100% filled with color, there is no way to see what is behind them through their bodies.

This illusory figure seemed to be only [-] to [-]% colored, and the layers were not completely filled in. Through his body, the underwater world behind him could be seen clearly.

What is even more concerning is that his feet are five centimeters above the ground and remain in place in a floating state.

There is also a fist-sized lock on the chest and a small section of chain that has obviously been broken.

There are various signs that he is not a human being.

At least, not a living human being.

For this kind of existence, Shinichi generally calls it [Zheng], which is what ordinary people call the undead.

One of his jobs as the God of Death is to send those who are nostalgic for the human world and unwilling to leave to become Buddhas.

"Be good, it will be over soon."

Pulling out the knife on his waist, Shinichi ignored the other party's puzzled look and the questions he was about to blurt out, and printed the bottom of the knife's handle on the undead's forehead.

A circle with the words [Death and Life] embedded in it appeared with light blue light.

Then the light blue light turned into a halo, shrouding the surroundings of the undead.

The undead gradually disappeared with this light, until finally they completely left the world, leaving only a black butterfly that flapped its wings and flew into the sky.

[Soul Burial], over! .

Chapter 9 On the working ability of the Metropolitan Police Department

　　The aquarium owned by the Suzuki Foundation considers that individual marine life in the aquarium is of high value, so it has deployed a large number of security forces.

In addition, the murder had only occurred during the day, and the police still had no clue. Naturally, they sent two police officers to stay to protect the scene.

But from the time Shinichi entered the aquarium to the time he completed the soul burial and left, the entire process did not attract anyone's attention.

Whether it’s the guard at the door, the security guard on patrol, or the police officer staying at the crime scene to guard it.

Only one of them caught a glimpse of the glass of the undersea tunnel from the corner of his eye while drinking coffee, and saw a little blue light reflected in it.

But he only thought it was the refraction of the light, or the strange light coming from the eyes of a certain sea creature, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Neither the God of Death nor the undead exists that ordinary people can see.

Life is really as lonely as snow!It's a pity that no one can see such a good deed. It's a pity, it's a pity.

With a little sigh, Shinichi couldn't help but sigh when he left, and even walked a little slower through the wall outside the aquarium.

What?Humans can't pass through walls?

This young master is the god of death!

In order to obtain death points, Shinichi has been saving the souls of the dead since he was in elementary school.

There's just one problem with this process, that is, it's a bit noisy.

Although ordinary people can't see the dead souls or spiritual power, they can see Shinichi's movements during the soul burial process.

How should I put it, a man is holding a knife, making strange postures in the air, and occasionally muttering something in his mouth. In the eyes of others, this scene is definitely a lunatic!

Fortunately, when I was a child, these actions were only considered children's play.

It wasn't until Shinichi entered junior high school that this joke in other people's mouths was finally changed to another word - chuunibyou.

In order not to be misunderstood, Shinichi could only try to avoid others during the soul burial.

But this weird behavior has become more and more suspicious, and some people even called the police because of it.

In addition, most of the places where souls were buried were at the sites of murders, and even the police began to wonder if he had any ulterior motives.

So in order to prevent his identity from being discovered, Shinichi could only change his fixed outfit and put on a white mask.

Because the action locations were all near Rice Flowers, the name Rice Flower Death gradually spread. Every time Shinichi was discovered during an operation, he would be hunted down by the Metropolitan Police Department.

Although there is no evidence that he has done anything bad, the charge of disturbing social order cannot be escaped.

It wasn't until Shinichi entered high school that all this changed.

Because his spiritual power has accumulated to a certain extent, he has learned a new skill - spiritual transformation.

It is also known as the out of body soul.

As it is now, Shinichi leaves his body at home and only allows his spirit to come out and bury his soul. In this way, not only will no one be able to discover him, but he will not be blocked by obstacles such as walls, making his movements very smooth.

I wandered between high-rise buildings for a while, and stopped for a while to watch a certain Bosozoku's Hyakki Night Parade. I rescued a girl who was blocked in an alley by two gangsters, and walked away from a gang of gangsters. Hakomikin, Shinichi finally stopped on the roof of an apartment building.

Psychic detection told him that there was a fresh undead here.

People who die normally do not generally have undead spirits. Only those who die unexpectedly and the deceased is still very nostalgic for the human world are likely to have undead spirits.

In other words, a murder may have just occurred here.

"But...is it such a coincidence?"

Looking at the familiar figure in the apartment room, Shinichi tilted his head and thought.

After walking around for a while, I actually came to Okino Yoko's home. This can only be described as a coincidence.

Xiaolan is not here, maybe because she made an appointment with herself for karate training tomorrow, so she went to bed early.

Mouri Kogoro, as always, used his unique logic to solve crimes, fooling Officer Megure and others around.

Okino Yoko and her agent Yamagishi Eiichi stood aside, looking strange, but neither spoke.

Through the conversation with Officer Megure and others, Shinichi had a general understanding of the case. After a brief investigation in the room, he had already determined the truth of the murder.

A person with an abnormal mind is just trying to drag others down with his own life. He is used to seeing such dead people and murderers with weird brain circuits.

Although this time the deceased and the murderer were the same person.

What caught Xin's eyes the most in the room was the undead figure floating above the body that had just died.

Perhaps because he was an otaku, Fujie Akiyoshi quickly adapted to being like this, and kept looking around Okino Yoko.
