The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 33 A fleeting sight
"Fujino-senpai, can you still defuse bombs?"

Xiaolan stared at Fujino with an expression of disbelief.

"Ahem."

Fujino coughed slightly when he heard this.

After thinking for a moment, he scratched the back of his head and explained: "Well, after all, I am a full-time detective. As a full-time detective, it should be normal to be able to defuse bombs, right?"

After that, he quickly changed the topic and asked Xiaolan: "But speaking of Xiaolan, why do you want to go to Kyoto?"

"It's because of the wedding."

She chuckled lightly and explained: "A friend of my father's is getting married today, and the place is in Kyoto...and I've never been to Kyoto, so I just wanted to come over and have a look."

Xiaolan did not continue to worry about Fujino's ability to defuse bombs.

From her point of view, it is reasonable for a detective to have some weird skills.

Don't ask her how she knew, because that's how Shinichi is.

…………

Because of the damn bomb on the Shinkansen, Fujino was taken away by the Kyoto police for questioning.

However, after learning of his identity as a high school student detective, the police in the Kyoto headquarters did not make things difficult for him.

According to their words: "High school students can't defuse bombs... What, you said you are a high school detective? That's fine."

Not for high school students, but for high school detectives.

Very reasonable and very scientific!
As for Conan and Xiaolan... Since the two had nothing to do with the bombing case, after getting off the car, they went straight to the wedding of an acquaintance who was going to attend with Mori Kogoro...

And then there's the woman with the bomb.

After being thrown over the shoulder by Fujino, the woman did not wake up until the police arrived. She was carried away by the police on a stretcher and sent to the hospital. She will not be investigated until she regains consciousness.

At sunset, at the gate of the Kyoto Police Headquarters.

Fujino stood on the street, looked at the neon-filled streets around him, and murmured, "Is this the capital?"

But in a daze, he felt that the scene around him looked familiar.

It should be said that it is familiar yet strange.

It's like being here before.

No matter how much he recalled it, he couldn't recall the slightest memory of the original owner's visit to Kyoto.

Is it the sense of sight?

Fujino couldn't help but think so.

"Buzz!"

At this moment, the roar of an engine interrupted his thoughts.

He raised his head and saw a white Rolls-Royce passing by.

Fujino recognized the model of the car speeding past at a glance.

It's an old white Rolls-Royce with a silver statuette on the front...

That car is worth at least a small building, or even more.

"Are all people in Kyoto so rich?"

As he spoke, Fujino showed his dead eyes.

…………

At the same time, inside the Rolls-Royce that just passed by at high speed.

In the car with luxurious interior, the girl sitting in the back seat leaned out and looked out the window, looking particularly fascinated.

The girl is beautiful, wearing a gray and white school uniform, with shoulder-length brown curly hair hanging naturally, and two red earrings on her ears and lips.

She didn't sit back in the seat until the familiar figure outside the car window disappeared without a trace.

At this time, the housekeeper suddenly raised his head and asked the girl sitting in the back row: "Miss, did you see someone familiar just now?"

"No, it just feels a little familiar."

"Is it possible that it's an old friend I haven't seen for many years?"

"An old friend?"

Hearing the butler's guess, the girl groaned, with a bit of disappointment in her words: "Maybe I just recognized the wrong person."

As she said that, she gazed at the sunset outside the car window, and chuckled absently: "My sweetheart is in Tokyo..."

As night fell, in a forest on the outskirts of Kyoto.

Fujino wore a Batman mask on his face and held an Okamoto mahogany knife in his hand. He followed the system's instructions and walked toward this deserted forest.

At this time, in his sight, a red dot was flashing not far away.

That red dot is exactly the location of "Kiichiro Numabuchi," the target of this system mission's bounty.

Continuing to follow the guidance of the system's red dot, Fujino pushed aside the bushes in front of him with his hands, and what came into view was an open space in the forest.

In the open space, a yellow tent was set up in the center, and there was still a faint glow coming from the fabric.

If the system guidance is correct, this should be the place where Kiichiro Numabuchi lives temporarily.

"who!"

At this time, the figure in the tent seemed to have noticed something moving in the forest.

After letting out a roar, he stood up, cut through the fabric of the tent with a sharp knife, and jumped out.

"The perception is quite strong..."

Fujino lifted the grass, revealed his figure from it, and deliberately lowered his voice to Kiichiro Numabuchi who was not far away, and asked, "Are you Kiichiro Numabuchi?"

Staring at the figure not far away, Numabuchi Kiichiro remained silent, but the muscles all over his body tightened disobediently.

With the help of a little moonlight, he could clearly see the details of that person.

It was a man of average stature, wearing a black suit, a black mask on his face, and a samurai sword in his hand.

Vaguely, a sharp cold light was revealed from the eyes behind the mask.

Damn, it must be them!

They must be coming!
In a panic, Numabuchi Kiichiro clenched the dagger in his hand, and his thin body suddenly burst out with endless strength.

Stepping forward, he rushed towards Fujino like a cheetah, and at the same time shouted: "You bastards, go to hell!"

[Detective enhancement has been started for the host; countdown 0-1-59]

[Power increase has been activated for the host; countdown 0-0-59]

[The perception boost has been activated for the host; countdown 0-0-59]

The sound of the system sounded.

Facing the fierce attack of Numabuchi Kiichiro, Fujino remained calm and just slowly raised the wooden sword in his hand...

When there was less than two meters away from Numabuchi Kiichiro, Fujino moved.

His body swayed slightly, the wooden sword in his hand was slightly tilted towards the right side of his waist, and he used his right hand to swing straight towards the dagger that Kiichiro Numabuchi was charging towards.

"clang!"

There was a crisp metal sound.

The dagger collided with the wooden knife, making a sound of metal fatigue.

Huge force was fed back to Numabuchi Kiichiro's hand, and the severe pain made his hands holding the dagger numb.

But he did not let go of the dagger in his hand.

Instead, he struggled to pull it out of the stalemate with the wooden sword.

Like a wild beast, he rolled behind him a few times before getting up again, and continued to stare at Fujino with fierce eyes.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have thrown the dagger just after taking Fujino's blow.

But Numabuchi Kiichiro did not do this.

Because he knew that if the dagger was dropped, what would meet him would be death!
