"That's good!" Upon hearing Fang Yan's words, Toyama Ginjiro breathed a sigh of relief. The matter was finally resolved. Although he hadn't been able to help much, he was still very happy.
"Okay, then I'll be leaving now!" Fang Yan nodded to Toyama Ginjiro, no longer paying attention to what happened afterward.
This incident is still a bizarre murder. Even though Yaichi Kuzuryu is heavily involved in this matter, it won't have much of an impact, at least not in terms of the law.
After all, Yaichi Kuzuryu never intended to kill anyone; he just harbored some resentment.
The killer is Death Shogi, what does that have to do with Kuzuryu Yaichi?
Even the police cannot disclose the specific details of this matter, as these matters need to be kept confidential!
However, this incident will ultimately change Yaichi Kuzuryu's life. His teacher died because of him. Things are better now, but as time goes on, can Kiyotaki Keika and the others really pretend that nothing happened?
"Hey, wait!" Just as Fang Yan was about to leave, Kong Yinzi caught up with him.
"Is something the matter?" Fang Yan asked, looking at Yin Bu Biao with some confusion.
"Thank you so much for saving my life this time. May I have your contact information?" Kong Yinzi seemed afraid that Fang Yan would misunderstand, so she continued, "Please don't misunderstand, I just want to express my gratitude to you."
"..." Fang Yan looked at Kong Yinzi speechlessly. After hesitating for a moment, he gave her his contact information and then turned to leave.
Watching Fang Yan's departing figure, a strange light flashed in Kong Yinzi's eyes.
There was something she had never told anyone: in Sora Ginko's dream, she seemed to have transformed into a white-haired woman with horns on her head, possessing immense power.
Before, Kong Yinzi thought she was just dreaming, that it was a fantasy. How could such a thing happen in the real world?
However, this incident clearly shattered Sora Ginko's understanding of the world.
Will my dream also come true?

"Is the matter resolved?" In a rather unpretentious izakaya, Erina Nakiri handed a dish to Fang Yan and asked softly.
"Hmm!" Fang Yan didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly, "What brings you here?"
After saying goodbye to Ginjiro Toyama, he asked Erina Nakiri and the others for their location, and then took a taxi to get there.
"This restaurant is pretty good; I saw it recommended online!" Erina Nakiri explained. "While it's not the most refined, some of the dishes are even better than what you'd find among the average Totsuki student!"
"Is that so?" Fang Yan was surprised at first, then tasted it. It couldn't compare to Erina Nakiri's, but it had its own style. It was very different from Erina Nakiri's cooking, not just in terms of taste, but also in terms of style. It was quite nice to have a meal like this once in a while.
Because of him, Erina Nakiri didn't look down on so-called commoner cuisine. Although she didn't come to izakayas like this often, she did come occasionally.
On the contrary, Erina Nakiri wants to eat all kinds of delicious food, then take the best and discard the worst. If she sees something delicious and worth trying, then she'll make it her own.
When it comes to chefs, God's Tongue is just that capricious.
"If the owner here knew that God Tongue could give such high praise, he would definitely feel very honored. You know, many shops can't get this kind of treatment even if they have money!" Sakurajima Mai complained from the side.
“That’s true!” Fang Yan nodded slightly. “But the food here is indeed quite good. Although it’s not exactly exquisite, it’s very good for a place like this.”
"By the way, how did things go this time?" Erina Nakiri rested her chin on her hands and asked Fang Yan curiously.
Erina Nakiri and the others knew that Ginjiro Toyama had asked Fang Yan to investigate the case, but they didn't know much about the specifics.
After Fang Yan looked around and found that no one could hear their conversation, he gave a brief account of the incident.
"I never expected it to turn out like this!" Erina Nakiri frowned after hearing Fang Yan's words: "Does this mean that we need to be more careful when we encounter antiques in the future, otherwise, there is a high possibility of problems?"
"You need to be careful when buying antiques of dubious origin, especially items from special tombs! The murder case at our school was actually caused by a problem with an antique sword." However, Fang Yan had other thoughts on the matter.
Could I collect some things that seem to offer me considerable benefits?
These can all be exchanged for resources!
How about we get someone to collect them when we get back?

Chapter 174
Fang Yan had no intention of going tomb raiding; he wasn't interested in such unethical things. As his strength increased, he became more "superstitious" about it. However, this didn't mean Fang Yan couldn't collect those special tools.
I guess I'm doing a service to the people by collecting these things and destroying them to prevent them from causing trouble in the future.
It would only cost some money, but Fang Yan was never short of money. At least in his life, he had never been short of money. When he told his father that he wanted to buy a villa, Fang Lin supported him without hesitation and paid the full amount without any doubt.
Even though they appear to be just an ordinary merchant family, and don't seem to have a lot of money...
"Is that so? It seems I'll have to have a serious talk with Grandpa later. He also likes antiques, but he prefers ancient and international kitchenware and tableware!" Erina Nakiri then added, "My grandpa told me he's always been looking for some special kitchenware..."
"It's said that in the legends of the mainland, there's a kind of cooking utensil that's specially designed to speed up cooking. As long as you put the ingredients in, they'll be cooked instantly. There's also a kind of knife that can be used to process seafood and restore the freshness of ingredients that have lost their flavor. How could such things possibly exist in this world?" Erina Nakiri retorted directly, "That's just ancient people's fantasy, okay?"
Even today, it's probably impossible to create kitchenware like this!
Fang Yan raised an eyebrow. He seemed to have heard of such a thing somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.
"Instead of thinking about these things, I'd rather imagine a pig that's all pork belly, has a spring that keeps bubbling, and produces seven different fruits that taste like a rainbow after eating it..." Erina Daba still has the innocence of a young girl, and at this moment, she is constantly fantasizing about all kinds of delicious food!
"..." Fang Yan looked at Nakiri Erina speechlessly. He now had some impression of these things. Wasn't the world she imagined the world of Toriko?
And those kitchen utensils from before also seem to be from the anime/manga series "Cooking Master Boy"...
Well, it's not entirely incomprehensible that this world has a storyline like "Cooking Master Boy," it's just that the overall background is probably different.
"Hmph, do you think I'm fantasizing!" Seeing Fang Yan's expression, Erina Nakiri looked at him with slight dissatisfaction.
"No, no!" Fang Yan quickly waved his hand: "I believe such a world exists!"
“Exactly, now that even demons and monsters have appeared, it’s not impossible for such a world to emerge, right?” Erina Nakiri gave Fang Yan a look that said, “You know what’s good for you.”
“Indeed! Besides, you couldn’t have imagined Miltank and Chansey’s existence before!! What you’re talking about are just upgraded versions!” Fang Yan said seriously.
Erina Nakiri gave Fang Yan an approving look: "However, that Yaichi Kuzuryu will probably live in the shadows for the rest of his life."
He didn't kill his teacher, but the teacher died because of him. Perhaps he will live with guilt for the rest of his life.
It's even possible that they might give up on shogi altogether!
"Maybe!" Fang Yan shrugged. "At least I won't end up in jail!"
"Prison food?" Erina Nakiri and Mai Sakurajima looked at Fang Yan with some suspicion. For some reason, they felt that Fang Yan's words were somewhat pointed.
"After all, he didn't commit a crime!" Fang Yan chuckled. The plot of the Dragon King's prison meal shouldn't be the same as it was originally, right?
"Is there anything else to do?" Sakurajima Mai then asked Fang Yan, "It seems like you've had a lot going on lately, and you keep running into problems!"
"I don't know. I was originally planning to go check out the Thor's Sword!" Fang Yan shook his head slightly and said, "That Phantom Thief Kid guy will probably make his move today or tomorrow! Someone might target him then, so I need to keep an eye on things!"
"You have connections with Phantom Thief Kid?" Erina Nakiri looked at Fang Yan with some suspicion. She knew almost all of Fang Yan's friends and knew his personality. If he had no connection with Phantom Thief Kid, he wouldn't bother with the life or death of such a troublesome person.
Fang Yan from their family can be considered kind-hearted, but he is definitely not the kind of brainless saint.
Under normal circumstances, Fang Yan wouldn't be interested in the matter of Phantom Thief Kid, and it would be quite good if he didn't even capture him!
"That guy meant well, I guess!" Fang Yan curled his lip. "He has no idea that he's going further and further down the path of courting death. It's mainly because I'm worried about Thor running out! Although I'm not afraid, I don't want any trouble!"
With the Sword of Excalibur, Fang Yan was no longer afraid of the Thunder God Sword. In fact, to be a little selfish, he felt it would be better for the Thunder God Sword to come out, as it could bring him a wave of points. However, if the Thunder God Sword were to come out, there might be quite a few people who would die...

Chapter 175
"Hey, what are you guys still doing here?!" After Fang Yan finished dinner and sent Erina Nakiri and Mai Sakurajima back, he came to the vicinity of the Thunder God Sword again and greeted Conan and Kogoro Mouri, who had dark circles under their eyes.
However, there were quite a few more people around them at this moment, among whom Fang Yan was most concerned about a dark-skinned man. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be Hattori Heiji.
Fang Yan wasn't surprised at all that he would be here. After all, this detective had a very special background and it was normal for him to get here through various connections.
"It's you!!" Kogoro Mori said weakly to Fang Yan.
At this point, he no longer had the energy to talk to Fang Yan; he hadn't slept for two days and one night.
"You're Fang Yan?" Hattori Heiji stepped forward, curiously examining Fang Yan.
Unlike Conan, who only believes in science and not metaphysics, Hattori Heiji does believe in metaphysics. After all, as Hattori Heizo's son, Hattori Heiji has learned a lot over time and has seen Fang Yan use swordsmanship. He doesn't think that this is something that just any swordsmanship master can do.
This is almost not normal.
"What's up?" Fang Yan raised an eyebrow, looking at Hattori Heiji with some confusion, wondering what this guy wanted to do.
"Hehehe, I mainly wanted to see what kind of person you are?" Hattori Heiji leaned closer to Fang Yan and whispered, "I've noticed that this incident is a bit different. That Phantom Thief Kid who wanted to steal the sword isn't like an ordinary Phantom Thief Kid at all."
Even though it hasn't appeared yet, the style doesn't seem like that of Kaito Kid. I even suspect that someone is using Kaito Kid's name to steal things. But if it's about stealing, they wouldn't use Kaito Kid's name.
Aside from that guy, there doesn't seem to be anyone else who would deliberately increase the difficulty for themselves, and Phantom Thief Kid doesn't seem to be stealing for the sake of stealing! So I suspect that Phantom Thief Kid isn't interested in this sword at all, but just wants to use us to increase our surveillance of it.”
"You've noticed quite a bit!" Fang Yan looked at Hattori Heiji with surprise. As expected of Hattori Heiji.
They even saw through the Phantom Thief Kid's purpose.
"Looks like you figured it out too!" Hattori Heiji rubbed his nose. "I arrived here very early today, and I noticed some people acting very suspiciously. They shouldn't be Kaito Kid, at least not all of them could be, and they're not here for Kaito Kid. I think they're here for this sword!"
"That's true!" Fang Yan nodded slightly. "You're a little better than Shinichi Kudo!"
Previously, Fang Yan thought that Hattori Heiji and a front-loading washing machine were in the same league, or even inferior to a front-loading washing machine, well, slightly worse.
But now it seems that this guy is quite clever.
He knew the situation because he had a cheat code and directly learned the correct answer from Koizumi Akako, but Hattori Heiji deduced it all based on his own clues.
"That guy, how dare he compare to me!" Hattori Heiji sneered when he heard about Kudo Shinichi. "I heard that guy was so scared after seeing you kill that sword demon at school that he didn't dare to show his face anymore!"
"???" A big question mark appeared on Fang Yan's forehead. He glanced at Conan beside him. The washing machine was so frightened that it didn't dare to show itself.

Isn't Death right here? But it seems that Heiji Hattori hasn't discovered Conan's true identity yet.
This guy is quite innocent. The reason he didn't show up wasn't because he was scared, but because he simply couldn't get out!
"So, what's special about this incident? Can you tell me about it?" Hattori Heiji then asked Fang Yan curiously.
Fang Yan merely rolled his eyes at Hattori Heiji before changing the subject and asking, "Have you ever pulled out the Thunder God Sword before?"
......... ........ ...
"I didn't dare to draw it. I learned about this quite late. By then, I knew that many people had already died because they failed to draw the sword, so I didn't try!" Hattori Heiji shook his head slightly and said, "This isn't pursuing the truth; it's courting death!"
