Conan's I'm Really Not Red Fang

Chapter 95 Missing Chocolate

Why did you dream about that memory?

Waking up from her sleep, Yukimuroi rubbed her sore eyebrows. She actually hadn't recalled those days in the snowy mountains for a long time. Perhaps it was the thought of Gin today and the heavy snowfall that triggered the memory.

That memory was the beginning of their relationship. Who would have thought that someone in the organization would leak the traces of Gin to other underground organizations, and they would also be lucky enough to encounter a snowstorm.

If it hadn't been for that blizzard, the three people who were tracking Gin would have been killed long ago, and there would be no way for her to find them.

It's a pity that the weather didn't go as planned. When no one expected, a snowstorm suddenly came.

"Xiao Yi, are you awake? Something happened outside. Come down when you wake up."

Yukimurozawa's voice came from the other side of the wall. Yukimuroi opened the curtains and noticed that the sky outside was extremely dark, the wind and snow were getting more and more biting, and occasionally a few chills flowed out from the gaps.

It's already so late.

I was really sleepy. When the sleepiness dissipated and my head gradually became clear, I took my coat and put it on myself.

Yukimuro Yi opened the door. Yukimuro Sawa outside the door did not wait for a response and was about to go downstairs when he heard her movement. He turned around and waited for a while.

Just now, several of them went out to look for the passenger who had not come back since the snow. Unexpectedly, what they found in the end would be a body that had become cold and stiff in the wind and snow, with a piece of cake just made by the deceased's girlfriend placed on it. chocolate.

During the search, he also met two other travelers who were staying overnight. They were obviously his companions. They were holding shotguns. Judging from their actions, they were probably hunters who were secretly hunting for protection in the name of protection.

The former was nothing, and he didn't worry about the murderer. The other person was obviously one of the two traveling companions of the deceased. Both of them were women, and it seemed that they would not harm innocent people. But he had to keep the latter in mind. It was true that he was carrying weapons, but it would be difficult to do anything in front of Conan and others. He could only decide based on the situation.

"Isn't there another person who can put chocolates? What do you think, this lady seems to have been staying in the hotel."

As soon as he came downstairs, he heard slanderous comments from others by name. Yukimuro Yi was not annoyed and walked past them with a calm expression without any intention of paying attention.

Conan: ...

it is as expected. Yukimuro Yi maintains a completely indifferent attitude towards things that he is not interested in. This can be seen in the previous cases. In addition to being a little patient with children, this person is completely indifferent to ordinary adults. .

"?"

The two hunters looked at the white-haired lady whom they had pointed out, as if they had not heard them, and walked straight past them toward the kitchen.

"Hey! Tell you...hiss!" The taller and thinner hunter impatiently stretched out his hand to stop Yukimuroi, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Yukimurozawa hit him back.

"Say what you say, don't use your hands or feet, and Xiaoyi is not a murderer."

"Then you should explain. I think she is the biggest suspect." The hunter, who had been suspected by Mouri Kogoro before, was dissatisfied and shouted, trying to lead others to suspect Yukimuroi.

"While you were all out looking for someone, who knows if she went out and came back?"

"We haven't seen the deceased when we came here. Please tell us why she wanted to kill an unknown person."

"——You" The hunter was speechless for a moment. He was just talking nonsense, and he couldn't explain the reason clearly.

"I also know what happened to Miss Yukimuro. It is impossible for her to kill the murderer. I think you just sought medical treatment in a hurry because you wanted to frame your crime of murder on others."

Mouri Kogoro naturally knew Yukimuroi's situation. It was impossible for someone with such a fragile body to kill a normal adult male. In comparison, he was more suspicious of the two people who owned shotguns. "And when blood stains appeared on the photo of the deceased, Miss Yukimuro was also in the house. The only suspects are you two and the old lady who went out to visit the grave at that time."

"Is it true that there are other people in the mountains as rumored?" the old lady guessed.

"Speaking of this, I think it's possible." The tall and thin hunter seemed to have remembered something, "I saw a suspicious man in the forest earlier, wearing a black knitted hat, and he was quite big. I thought it was a bear and almost shot him."

Black knit hat?

Shuichi Akai? As soon as his fingers touched the kitchen door handle, Yukimuro Yi paused and immediately denied his conjecture. Shuichi Akai could not appear here. He was probably just someone dressed similarly, and the black knitted hat was not exclusive to him.

Compared to her calmness, Yukimurozawa and Conan's reactions were much more obvious.

"Sir, do you know what the person you saw in the forest looked like?"

Unexpectedly, the first person to ask was not Yukimurozawa and Conan, but Maori Lan, who seemed completely unrelated to them.

"Ok?"

"Because he might be someone we know."

People you know?

Yukimuro Yi frowned slightly. Could it be that Xiaolan also knew Akai Shuichi?

She had never heard of this, and it might have something to do with the reason Belmode had been hiding, the reason why he protected Mao Lilan and Conan.

The subsequent conversation had nothing to do with it. She closed the door and walked to the back door of the kitchen. Only one piece of chocolate disappeared from the table. The piece she had put up was also put back in its place after everyone found it.

There was a little water stain on the ground, which was not obvious and was even close to drying up. She followed the trace and saw, as expected, it led directly from the disappeared chocolate to the back door of the kitchen.

It turns out to be a dog...

Dogs that have been specially trained can indeed do this. They cannot tell the difference between life and death, and will only place things that can provide them with energy next to all rescuers in need.

Just like chocolate.

For people who are on the verge of death in the wind and snow, they only need some energy to supply life, and maybe the only hope lies in a piece of chocolate.

Wasn't she the same way at the beginning? In that sudden snowstorm, they only had a few pieces of candy with them. But without those only foods, even if they didn't fall in the snow, their bodies would not be replenished with enough energy. And collapsed in the wooden house with only a little warmth.

This is the truth behind the rumors that ghosts will place chocolates next to the deceased. It is really not surprising.

Standing up, Yukimuro Yi opened the back door of the kitchen, and suddenly there was a puppy standing not far away. It was exactly the same as the dog she had seen in the house in the afternoon. Maybe it was the puppy.

But no one else in the house expressed any sign that the dog was missing, which meant...

"It turns out there are two puppies. No wonder no one noticed them."

After welcoming the puppy into the house, Yukishi Yi couldn't help but smile as he looked at the appearance of his relatives.
