Chapter 535: Shuten-doji and Daitengu
“Roar…roar…roar…roar…”
Just as Suzuki Sonoko was repeatedly explaining to Mori Kogoro how perfect her witch costume was, a monster with one eye missing behind them suddenly yelled at them several times, shaking its head continuously, as if signaling them to do something.
"Forehead......"
Maori Kogoro scratched his head, confused for a moment.
"What is this guy doing?"
"Well..."
Suzuki Sonoko blinked, glanced at the direction the monster was looking at, and said softly,
"Well, Uncle Maori seemed to want to tell us to move forward because the space ahead is empty."
"Aha?"
Kogoro Mouri almost stumbled, then looked ahead and saw that there were only two people left to reach them. He found that the space was indeed empty, so he immediately pulled Suzuki Sonoko forward.
As he walked, he complained to Suzuki Sonoko,
"Really? This guy just reminded me, but why not talk properly? He just kept yelling. Who knows what he wants to say?"
"Ah ha ha......"
Suzuki Sonoko also laughed dryly twice, perhaps because she felt that the two of them were a bit abstract, so she said with all her might,
"Well, maybe it's because they are more dedicated and think that monsters can't make human sounds, so they don't speak."
"Yes,"
Perhaps because she heard what Maori Kogoro and Suzuki Sonoko said, the pretty woman wearing a hat standing behind Maori Kogoro also said something.
“This is to immerse myself in the role I’m playing.”
Kogoro Mouri subconsciously looked back, and at this moment, he suddenly felt that what Suzuki Sonoko said seemed to be right.
There are really good-looking monsters among the monsters!
In an instant, Maori Kogoro's old perverted symptoms came back.
"Wow, what a beautiful witch!"
"Hehe, thank you for your compliment,"
The woman in the hat had a smile on her face.
"I am beautiful, but I am not a witch..."
As she spoke, she lifted up her hat, revealing a bunch of tiny snake heads that looked like they were flying.
This gave our Maori detective a fright.
"Medusa...Medusa!"
"Hehe, I'm going to turn you into stone."
The woman tilted her head towards Kogoro Mouri and smiled.
At this time, the staff's shouts came from the front.
"Next guest..."
"Oh, it's coming!"
After listening to this, Kogoro Mouri hurriedly trotted forward with the invitation.
I have to say that the staff were very dedicated and fit the atmosphere of this party very well - the two staff members responsible for check-in each had a bloody kitchen knife on their heads, and their horrifying appearance did not detract from the mood at all.
Maori Kogoro handed the invitation to the staff. When the staff saw the name on the invitation, they were also surprised.
"Ah! I am so sorry! I didn't expect you to be the famous Maori Kogoro!"
“Hahahaha, thank you for the compliment.”
The two of them exchanged pleasantries, and Maori Kogoro also asked the staff casually,
"Hey, will someone really commit murder at this banquet?"
"what?"
The staff was stunned by Kogoro Mori's words.
Maori Kogoro saw this and took out a letter.
"This is the letter that came with the invitation. This is what it says."
The male staff member took it and looked at it. The female staff member next to him also came over. After the two of them looked at it carefully, they shook their heads.
"Mr. Maori, although this letter comes with our invitation letter, we have never written such a letter."
"Ah?"
This time, it was Kogoro Mouri's turn to be confused.
The female staff member next to her explained,
"We do have an activity to guess the murderer at this party."
"But as for this letter, I think the producer probably said this specifically in order to invite Mr. Maori to come."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Before Kogoro Mouri could say anything, two more people came up behind him, oh no, monsters.
One of the two monsters carried a huge wine gourd on his back and had a horn on his head; the other wore a ferocious mask with a long red nose, a pair of folded wings on his back, and held a round fan in his hand.
Kogoro Mori and Sonoko Suzuki turned around and took a look. Wow, isn't this Shuten-doji and Daitengu?
There are two big monsters again, and they are famous big monsters in the legends of the island country. The big gourd of Shuten-doji and the pair of big wings of Daitengu are all big productions. It can be seen that these two people have invested a lot of money.
And this Shuten-doji is quite handsome. Look at that cold face. He looks like a powerful character...
Wait, this Shuten-doji is...
"White horse?!"
"Brother Song?!"
"Hahaha, no..."
Shuten-doji laughed twice at first, then felt something was wrong, immediately frowned, and said lightly,
"Well, it's me."
"Are Mr. Maori and Ms. Sonoko also coming to the party today?"
Kogoro Mori and Sonoko Suzuki listened to what Shuten Doji said. Although it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, they still felt something was strange. In the end, they nodded.
Then, the two looked at the Great Tengu next to Shuten-doji.
"So, this is..."
"Ok!"
Daitengu also took off his mask, revealing Sato Miwako's face. She smiled and greeted Maori Kogoro and Suzuki Sonoko.
"Mr. Maori, Sonoko, hello."
"If I had known you guys were coming, Song and I wouldn't have bothered others to do this makeup for us!"
"Hahaha,"
Suzuki Sonoko heard this, smiled and came forward, took Daitengu's hand, and joked,
"Sister Miwako, you look so beautiful as a Tengu! I can't help but be moved!"
"How can that be..."
