Chapter 90

Escape from the Abnormal

Countless fireworks rose into the sky, embellishing a scene like a sea of ​​flowers. The brilliant colors were dazzling, and the surroundings were immersed in this seemingly happy and beautiful atmosphere.

Quietly looking at the fireworks in the sky, unlike the smiles of everyone around her, Natsume Enako was in a state of confusion, and her brain was working rapidly without stopping.

It was already midnight. On weekdays, people should have been asleep at this time, but today was a little different. Today was the day of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new.

The festive atmosphere was very strong. Merchants participating in the festival set up stalls along the open space for hundreds of meters, and the crowds of people who came to join in the fun filled this not-so-large open space.

At this time, Conan was pulled by three classmates to catch goldfish. Mouri Kogorou was drunk at a roadside barbecue stall, and Mouri Ran Elder Sister half-squatted beside him and took care of him helplessly.

The bells of the temple not far away also began to ring, It represents the official arrival of the new year.. What the hell.

“It turns out that today is not the real New Year. I am so happy for nothing.”

Natsume Enako covered her head and showed an unhappy smile. The more she knew, the more troubles she had.

In this magic array from a thousand years ago, Natsume Enako endured the pain of having her cognition modified almost every day. She endured the discomfort of her brain and corrected her cognition. It was like refreshing her three views every day, and her brain kept reminding herself that she was wrong.

After more than a month, Natsume Enako found that her calculation ability had improved significantly, not only due to the “calculation interference”, but also had a great relationship with this inexplicable cognitive change.

“It’s so uncomfortable, so awkward.”

Just a few minutes after the start of the new day, Natsume Enako’s cognition recovered, but unfortunately, the original festive feeling was gone.

Walking in the bustling crowd, Natsume Enako’s mind was withdrawn from the lively festival. After taking a reluctant look at the various interesting stalls nearby, she began to act according to the plan she had made before.

“So the battle plan has already begun.”

Looking at the fireworks in the sky again, Natsume Enako immediately reacted.

Based on the results of the previous discussion, Natsume Enako spent some time to fully understand the meaning of Kanzaki Kaori’s words, and the two of her verbally made a plan together.

Although many things were unclear, there was one thing that was easier to understand, that is, to make the magic array temporarily ineffective or fall into chaos.

The caster of this ancient magic array has long been buried in history, and now it is actually Conan who makes the magic work, but he is unaware of all this, and because he is not the caster, even he himself is affected by the magic.

What he need to do now is to let Conan affect the magic array and make it temporarily fall into chaos.

The fireworks in the sky are still blooming, and there are some strange patterns and symbols mixed in the flames in the sky. Because they are mixed in the fireworks and only flash for a moment, almost no one notices them.

The only one who noticed this is a young detective Mitsuhiko who looks like a child but is smarter than ordinary people.

“Look, the patterns of those fireworks are a bit weird.” Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, who occasionally looked up to appreciate the fireworks, said a little loudly. He is Conan’s classmate.

The other students in Class B of the first grade of Teitan Elementary School also raised their heads at this time, looking at Mitsuhiko who was a little puzzled.

“It’s just ordinary fireworks.” Kojima Genta squinted his eyes for a long time, but found nothing unusual.

“Didn’t you notice the special pattern in the fireworks? Maybe someone is asking for help from us.” Mitsuhiko said anxiously.

Listening to the discussion around him, Conan put down the goldfish net in his hand, stood up and looked up at the sky, and a thoughtful expression began to appear on his face.

“Do these patterns and symbols have any special meaning?”

Conan stared at him for a long time, and when he looked at these patterns, his vision suddenly became blurred, and he froze in place.

“The magic formula has been completed, and then we will act according to the plan.”

Just as she took the corn cob from a stall owner, Natsume Enako received a call from Kanzaki Kaori.

“I understand.” Natsume Enako showed a serious look, saying that she would never mess things up.

“Conan, what do you think these patterns mean?” Pointing to the fireworks still burning in the sky, Mitsuhiko asked.

After a long time without hearing Conan’s answer, Mitsuhiko turned around with some dissatisfaction, but saw a figure with a bun coming over.

“So you are here, Conan. It’s late and we have to go back. You are Conan’s friends, so hurry back with your parents.”

Natsume Enako said with a hint of majesty. Although she is only a junior high school student, she is a well-deserved senior among a group of elementary school students whose average age is no more than seven years old.

“Then we say goodbye.”

“Goodbye, Conan.” Mitsuhiko waved at Conan and said, seeing that Conan still ignored him, he left angrily.

The fireworks began to stop, and the surroundings gradually became quiet.

Conan now looked a little drowsy, which was due to the temporary hypnosis of Kanzaki Kaori’s technique.

And the hypnosis effect on Conan was not very ideal, and he could easily break free, so Kanzaki Kaori had to keep it going.

“The next step is to let Conan perform a magic ritual himself.”

Natsume Enako carefully recalled what Kanzaki Kaori told her, and took out a lot of strange things from a nearby corner.

These were taken from a place called Amakusa-Style Remix of Church by Kanzaki Kaori during the occasional recovery of normal time.

According to her, these special objects plus some arrangement methods can form magic.

However, Amakusa-Style Remix of Church also reminded Natsume Enako of Amakusa Shino, a senior in Tokiwadai, and she didn’t know if there would be any connection.

Natsume Enako manipulated the airflow, Carefully controlling Conan’s route and movements.

Let Conan place specific artifacts in various directions and draw magic patterns on the ground. After a few minutes, a strange ritual gradually formed on the ground.

For some magic rituals, the caster does not need any special ability. Even ordinary people can complete it. The upper limit can even pull angels down to earth.

“It’s done.”

Natsume Enako looked around curiously. The ritual on the ground had been arranged as required, but it seemed that nothing had changed.

“I almost forgot that I also want Conan to break the clay idol at point 3.”

At the moment when Conan’s palm pressed hard on the clay idol, the surrounding scenery faded like a tide and turned into a gray scene of nothingness.

The gray began to spread gradually, as if a piece was cut out of the whole world.

“Success?”

Natsume Enako looked a little excited. She was tired of the life where her cognition was constantly changed.

Kanzaki Kaori also appeared in Natsume at this time Not far from Enako, it was said that Conan’s hypnosis had been abandoned.

However, Conan’s state was a little strange at this time. He was floating in the air as if he had lost gravity. An illusory figure holding a shield appeared beside him. This illusory figure only appeared for a few seconds and then attached to Conan.

“This ritual can summon a shield-bearing angel representing protection. Although it has not been attacked, it can just block the influence of other magic.” Kanzaki Kaori explained.

The world around him began to collapse gradually, and the gray world slowly turned into countless visible fragments scattered in the air.

“But if this shield-bearing angel disappears, will we fall into abnormal time again?” Natsume Enako asked with concern.

“No. The angel’s shield also blocked our connection with the ancient magic array.”

The world in front of him has completely collapsed, and everyone has fallen into a state of stagnant thinking. There is no time to think about anything, and the vision has become dark.

When she came to her senses, Natsume Enako found that she was sleeping on the floor, covered with a quilt.

“I’m back?”

She hurriedly got up and looked at her phone. Seeing the time returned to normal, Natsume Enako immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
