Zongman: People in Conan, raising cats and mice

"Okay, Koizumi-san!"

Matsumoto Akira smiled and nodded, but it didn't do what Koizumi Hongzi expected.

However, Koizumi Hongzi was not discouraged at all. She had long understood that the man in front of her would not be tempted by her magic.

But overall he is a guy who says one thing and thinks another. Although he says no, his body is very honest.

"Since Matsumoto-san doesn't want to talk more, I won't bother you any more. Here's my contact information. If you have anything, you can call me directly~"

Like a magic trick, Koizumi Akako threw her contact number and other contact information to Matsumoto Akira. These are all products of modern technology.

Although I am a witch, this era is different from the past. Sometimes modern technology is even more reliable and convenient than magic.

It is only normal for witches who have suffered losses in the past to accept modern changes and embrace the development of technology.

Who would still cling to the old ideas? Do they want to be beaten again?

Matsumoto Akira honestly wrote down all the contact information that Koizumi Akako threw at him. Although he might not use it, it was always better to be prepared.

The resumed banquet had not yet ended, but in this small room, the witches' tea party had already come to an end.

Koizumi Akako had no intention of staying for the banquet. After her tea party ended, she said hello to Odohji Sonomi and left first.

Instead of disappearing like a wisp of smoke as she had done before, she flew away on her broom like a free bird.

Matsumoto Akira stood by the window, staring at the figure of Koizumi Akako walking away on a broom.

"What's wrong? Are you interested in that witch? If you are interested, I can introduce you to the strategies and techniques of conquering witches!"

Xiao Ke flew to Matsumoto Akira's side without knowing when, and said with a smile.

Matsumoto Akira almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and couldn't help asking himself, "How did I suddenly become like this? And where did you get the witches' strategies and techniques?"

Faced with Matsumoto Akira's doubts, although he did not speak, Xiaoke could see through his thoughts from his eyes.

Xiao Ke immediately added: "These are all the experiences I wrote down when I followed Clow Reed. After all, there were quite a lot of witches surrounding Clow Reed back then!"

Clow Reed is known as the Clow Magician. The Clow Cards he invented even have the power to control time and change the world.

Wasn't he a famous figure in his youth? Of course he was!

The world seemed to revolve around him, and the number of outstanding witches surrounding him was as numerous as stars.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be descendants of Cullo Reed left in some places. You know, Cullo Reed was not married.

Although marriage is not necessary for magicians and witches, their vows are more important and stronger than marriage.

But no matter what, without a partner, Cullo Reed still has descendants.

This child is not a relative's or a sibling's child, but a pure Cullo Reed child.

For example, the Li family in Hong Kong belongs to the line of Clow Reed's mother. They have a certain relationship with Clow Reed, but they are not a direct descendant.

This fully demonstrated how powerful the skills of those witches were back then. Even someone like Clow Reed would be tempted and even lose control, thus reaping this unexpected surprise.

Xiao Ke didn't think that Matsumoto Akira could escape, although it seemed that he was not affected by the witch.

"Crowley would actually do something like this? I thought he was the kind of guy who devoted everything to magic and had no interest in anything else!"

Matsumoto Akira's main attention was not on what Xiaoke said. Instead, he was very surprised that Clow Reed would be tempted by the witch.

"I say - are you looking down on the witch?" Xiao Ke flew in the air, hands on hips, examining Matsumoto Akira as if he were a criminal.

"That's a real witch! Even a real god might be tempted by a witch!"

Xiao Ke warned seriously that if it weren't for the fact that he was in the form of a beast, those witches would not be interested in him.

Maybe he had already started leaving offspring when he was still a guardian beast. Although their aesthetics might be different, Xiao Ke was still very sure that he would not be able to resist the temptation of those witches.

Don’t talk about how humans’ aesthetics are completely different from yours. In the hands of those witches, even a piece of shit or a brick can become your favorite!

Not to mention species, even the basic materials they are made of are different, so don't mention that your aesthetic taste is different from others.

"Is it true that gods have been seduced by witches?" Matsumoto Akira was not interested in other things, but he was very curious about the fact that gods could be seduced by witches.

Xiaoke was flying in the air and immediately rolled his eyes.

My goodness, I said so much, and you only remember this one sentence?

"Idiot, is this the point I'm making? Besides, I'm not sure if gods exist. After all, I've never seen one—"

Xiao Ke shook his head and paused before continuing, "But for people like Kurolido, it doesn't matter whether gods exist or not!"

"Yeah, there's not much difference anymore!"

Matsumoto Akira nodded obediently, then remained silent for a while before finally asking his last question.

"I've wanted to ask this for a long time. Since Clow Reed was able to create Clow Cards that could stop or even reverse time, how did he die?"

When Xiao Ke heard Matsumoto Akira talking about this topic, he was silent for a while. After a while, he sighed and said.

"For that guy, if he really wants to survive, there are plenty of ways. But he said that he wanted to die on his own initiative because he didn't want to disrupt the natural cycle and affect the passage of time!"

Xiao Ke spread his hands. They were still very young and energetic at that time, and did not understand why Clow Reed, their creator, would think like this.

Even though he didn't understand, as a guardian beast, Kero still followed Clow Reed's arrangement and slept around the Clow Cards, guarding these Clow Cards that were destined to be opened at some point in the future.

When that time comes, he will start his own journey in a new place. As for where the journey ends, it will only be decided by himself.

Because Clow Reed had already drawn the end of the last journey, and next time Clow Reed would no longer be involved in his life.

"Is that so? My thoughts are indeed somewhat different from that great magician's~"

Matsumoto Akira shook his head. If it were him, he would never let himself die for this reason.

After all, according to what Xiaoke said, during his travels over the years, Kurolido should have seen many witches who had lived for who knows how many years.

Since these witches can stay young and live a long life through their own means, why should I obey nature and die?

Perhaps Kurolido's realm was already high enough? As for whether there were other reasons, Matsumoto Akira had no way to delve into it at this time.

“Just listen to what he says. I still haven’t confirmed whether Clow Reed is dead or not!”

Xiaoke Xiaoke patted Matsumoto Akira's shoulder, and then spoke seriously in her own voice.

"After all, that guy has faked his death in front of us several times before! Maybe he is pretending to be dead this time too?"

Xiao Ke said this in a tone that he himself was not very sure about. After all, Clow Reed had pretended to be dead in front of them many times.

Although most of the time what Clow Reed says is credible, in some cases, you don't have to take what Clow Reed says seriously.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about such heavy topics. Let's first talk about the witch strategy you mentioned earlier!"

Matsumoto Akira took a deep breath and immediately waved his hand, changing the subject.

But he didn't expect that when the witch strategy was mentioned just now, Xiao Ke rolled his eyes.

"I'm just saying it, you don't really take it seriously, do you? Back then, it was someone else who took the initiative to do it!"

"Do you think that someone who has to take the initiative in everything or even needs others to be very proactive? People who don't have such good skills can do these things?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Xiaoke's tone. Although he was not a human, he sometimes behaved like a dog.

The corner of Benming's mouth twitched slightly, and he subconsciously reached out and knocked Xiaoke's head like he knocked Conan.

Xiao Ke immediately covered his head with one hand and his mouth with the other, and wailed softly.

"Ouch, what are you doing!"

Xiao Ke's eyes were filled with resentment, "If Sakura and Tomoyo heard this, it would be terrible!"

"I just wanted to tease you, kid. It's quite like what Clow Reed did back then!"

"Who taught you to talk like that?" Matsumoto Akira resisted the urge to hit Xiaoke again.

"Ah, isn't that right?" Xiao Ke covered his head with his hands. After realizing that Matsumoto Akira had no intention of continuing, he let go of his hands with some confusion.

"When Xiaoying is not at home, I often use the computer at home to browse various forums. Many people on the forums use phrases like "Wei Wu's Legacy" to praise others!"

Matsumoto Akira shook his hands, and Xiaoke immediately shrank his head again. At this moment, Matsumoto Akira's voice came over.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Xiaoke! You should make sure you understand what these words actually describe in the future. If you use them indiscriminately, it will cause big problems!"

Matsumoto Akira reached out and gently touched Xiaoke's head, then turned and walked towards Sakura, Tomoyo and the others.
