Conan: The Mechanic

After a brief silence, the man broke the silence - he also dropped the wooden knife, but took out a sharp dagger from his arms.

"..." Hattori Heiji narrowed his eyes slightly - he had carefully examined the body of the fat man who died in the basement before, and the cause of that person's death seemed to be caused by being stabbed in the neck by such a short sword.

They didn't find the murder weapon at the scene. Could it be that this short sword was taken away by the murderer in some unknown way?

Besides, if the other party intends to kill him with this sword... Then why did he just give himself a wooden sword and duel him? unless--

"Are you Musashibo Benkei?" Hattori Heiji took a deep breath, concentrated his dazed mind due to blood loss, and asked.

When Musashibo Benkei and Gen Yoshitsune met for the first time, it was because Musashibo Benkei took a fancy to Gen Yoshitsune's sword, so he wanted to win Gen Yoshitsune's sword through a duel.

If it is said, the other party gave him a wooden knife just to replicate this process? Defeat yourself by duel and then take your own life as a trophy?

But in any case, before trying to think about the answer to this question, there is one thing that is most important - to survive the opponent's sharp dagger, in any way.

The opponent holding such a short sword must have a longer attack distance than himself, which means that it is almost impossible for him to attack the opponent without being attacked by the opponent at the same time. In addition, because of the blood loss, his reaction ability may not be as good as the opponent's, so if he is close to confrontation, he is most likely to suffer.

Therefore, what I should do now is to control the distance to a distance that the opponent cannot reach with a single attack even with a dagger - the distance should be subtle enough that the opponent cannot attack him with a single attack, but it is easy to let The opponent has the illusion that he can attack him with a single strike. In this case, it is easy for the opponent to choose to make a bold move when he can't close the distance for a long time to really ensure this, and finally when he runs out of strength but cannot attack him, he successfully captures the knife and completes the counterattack. .

This is a very high-risk plan, but it is also the most likely way to succeed in this situation: the other party thinks that they have the advantage, so they are likely to choose a more aggressive attack strategy.

Of course, even Hattori Heiji himself had to admit that this was a situation where the opponent had the upper hand. But if as long as the other party makes a mistake, then all the disadvantages of oneself may be completely and completely turned over at the moment of success.

Quietly kept the right distance from the man. When the other party moved forward, he retreated, and when the other party retreated, he moved forward. Hattori Heiji dealt with the man in this way, consuming the other party's patience.

In a situation where the strong beat the weak, it should have been quick to win, and once the strong can't open the situation for a long time, it will become very common to take risks and bet that the opponent's ability is not enough to seize the flaws. Hattori Heiji can indeed find that the opponent is no longer stuck in the way he used to be, but lacks the ability to quickly resolve the battle, but gradually began to become impatient.

[Very good, it may only take another half a minute or so to lose the opponent—]

When Hattori Heiji thought of this, he suddenly felt that he lost his balance under his feet, and his left foot, which was stepping out in order to keep the distance, seemed to have stepped into something very deep and cold. "!!!???"

When he looked at his feet in astonishment, he found that he had stepped into a river! [How can there be a river here...]

Even though the man was a little impatient, he obviously didn't lose his ability to catch fleeting fighter planes, so he immediately charged up with the knife in hand.

[It's over...] Even if it is like Hattori Heiji who refuses to admit defeat, there is a bit of despair in his mind at this time.

By dodging his body, he managed to dodge two slashes, but the third slash could not be completely avoided anyway. The man's slash to the heart, even under Hattori Heiji's full-strength dodge, just changed his position in front of him. A cut was made on his clothes on his left flank, which was not particularly fragile, revealing the skin that had already bloomed with blood.

"Clap!" With this sound, a bag fell out of Hattori Heiji's ripped clothes, making such a collision with a stone on the ground.

"..." The man also seemed to notice the thing that fell out, and after hesitating for a moment, he chose to pick it up.

"!!!" After Hattori Heiji saw what it was, he immediately showed an anxious look on his face, and rushed up with his injured body desperately.

That bag is not an evidence related to this case, but an evidence that he came to Kyoto to find his first love. Now, looking at the way this guy is focusing on this bag, he probably regards this thing as something he is in Genji Hotaru. Evidence found in the case?

To Hattori's surprise, the man seemed to pay too much attention to this thing, so he didn't even allocate enough energy to observe Hattori: Of course, it could also be because the eyes of the Noh mask he was wearing were too small. , so it's impossible to see Hattori Heiji's figure from this angle, but if he couldn't hear the voice, it could only be attributed to the fact that he didn't pay enough attention because he was too focused on this small bag.

"Uh-" With Hattori Heiji's unruly and extremely amateur attack, the man who had previously shown a very high professional level was kicked back a few steps, and Hattori Heiji also took the opportunity to pick up the bag. Then he looked at the man who had just stood up. "I'm sorry, this thing must have nothing to do with your case, so I think it's safer to keep this thing with me."

While he was trying to maintain his vigilance against the man, the scene in front of him suddenly blurred without warning—although it became clear again after that, the next blurring soon came again. Under such dizziness, Hattori Heiji's figure swayed slightly. This may not be enough to make ordinary people realize what happened, but for someone experienced in killing, it is tantamount to pouring a bucket of blood on a shark~www.readwn.com~ Enough to make the coolest shark choose outrageously strike.

But, at this moment...

"Bang!" The man only felt that something heavy hit his face, the whole person suddenly stopped under the huge force, and then fell backwards.

"Mr. Policeman, here!" Toyama and Ye's voices appeared in the ears of Hattori Heiji, who was already in a trance.

[I can't be... having hallucinations, right? 】 Hattori Heiji thought while panting. [Qianyu and the others don't matter, He Ye... How did He Ye appear here? 】

In the blurred vision, the man picked up something from the ground and then ran away. Hattori Heiji was able to cheer up and watch what happened just now.

A pair of stockings that seemed to contain something - this is what was slapped on the man's face just now. Judging from the sound of the collision, there is probably something like a stone inside, so it has enough weight to hit someone wearing a protective gear like a mask that can disperse the force.

However, the point of this stocking being here is not something else, but that he may not really have hallucinations - even if his eyes are gouged out, he can still tell by hand that this stocking is from leaves One of the most commonly used styles when wearing leather boots.

"Heiji, are you alright?" Immediately afterwards, Kazuya's face appeared in Hattori Heiji's field of vision, and a warm touch came from his face.

Hattori Heiji's mouth twitched into a smile, but then fell down weakly.

Accompanied by the same drooping head.
