Conan: The Mechanic

At the same time, in the park where Hattori Heiji and Musashibo Benkei confronted before.

"Hmm..." Yuan Shan and Ye looked around at the surrounding scenery with uncertain expressions. "Where is it..."

If her memory wasn't wrong, she should have shattered the attacker's mask with a rock stocking before, and the fragments of the mask should have landed near here. If this fragment can be found, it may also provide the police with more clues to find the murderer...

So if she wants more clues to help the police catch Heiji's murderer as much as possible, she must find these mask fragments.

But where are these fragments?

Just as she was looking for debris in the grass, she suddenly felt a sharp sound of sharp blades breaking through the air behind her.

"!?" He Ye was shocked and subconsciously planned to turn back, but realized that it must be too late for this action now, so she immediately adjusted her action concept to counterattack mode, and subconsciously let go of the sharp blade that was slashing towards her left side. .

When she turned sideways to avoid the sharp blade, the sharp blade appeared on the left side of her body.

[A metal sword? ] He Ye looked at the light of the blade, and probably had already judged the weapon the opponent was using. [From this angle, the opponent should at most stab forward anyway, and it is absolutely impossible to make a quick downward slash. 】

Then, the legs don't need to do anything, just wait for him to continue to send the sword forward due to the lack of strength, and finally drag him down when the hilt and wrist are sent over—— In fact, this is also the essence of Aikido, see the skillful defensive martial arts of tactical demolition.

About half a second later, the hilt and wrist had appeared at the edge of Kazuha's field of vision.

【Let it go! Then just-]

Accompanied by the sudden sound, a swarm-like sound, He Ye's expression was locked on his face.

On the shirt behind her, an electric rod was still there, as if mocking He Ye's defenselessness.

"You didn't even think about attacking and defending, so you just wanted to counterattack?" The dull voice from the attacker sounded in He Ye Cun's consciousness. "If you hesitate to this extent, you have no choice but to lose."

……

At the same time, Chiba, Conan and Fujiwara were sitting on the train on the Kurama Line. Heiji Hattori returned to the hospital due to repeated injuries. And Fujiwara appeared here not because Chiba and the others invited him, but because they happened to bump into Fujiwara and Hotaru who came to visit when Hattori Heiji was returning to the hospital, so they could only accept the fact that Fujiwara also acted with them.

This time their purpose is to verify a strange place that was confirmed before - Benkei Musashibo who assassinated Hattori Heiji on Mount Kurama did not evacuate with a bow and arrow, so they should be able to search there to find the weapons left behind and other traces.

However, just before they looked for clues there, Qianyu seemed to have discovered something.

"Jade?" Conan was stunned.

What Chiyu showed Conan was a sketch made from a replica he had previously drawn based on the clues that Uncle Mori had received indicating where the stolen Buddha statue was hidden. There were three rows of patterns in the picture. And between the right half of the top and bottom juxtaposed patterns of the first two rows, there is also an ink dot with a meandering outline.

"Yes," Qianyu nodded. "The pattern on this clue map seems to be able to be connected into jade characters. As for why it is connected into Chinese characters, because you look at the ink dots, is it not like the ink dots that are naturally splashed under normal circumstances, but rather like writing with a brush The dots in the Chinese characters of ? This kind of dots are definitely not accidentally clicked, but deliberately written with a troublesome thing like a brush, that is to say, the information 'this is a Chinese character written with a brush' is also what this treasure map wants to express Yes. And if this is the case, we can also infer from this information, and group these patterns on it - and if it is spelled like this, it will form a jade character. You see, the three in the third row The pattern is wider than the first row, and the first row is wider than the second row, which is the same as the structure of the Chinese character 'jade'."

"Maybe, but if it's just the word 'jade', we won't get any information, right?" Conan leaned over and said, and Fujiwara also glanced at the sketch drawn by Chiba. "Wait a minute, if that's the case, maybe the patterns themselves contain some geographic coordinate information?"

"But I can't think of the meaning of this information," Qianyu shook her head.

"I don't know either," Conan shook his head. “These things are probably better left to people who are more familiar with Kyoto — professionals who are absolutely proficient in Kyoto’s culture.”

"Huh?" At this moment, Fujiwara suddenly made a strange sound - he was looking out the window at this time, and from the direction of focus of his eyes, he seemed to be looking at a moving target.

"What's the matter?" Qianyu also turned her attention to the opposite road~www.readwn.com~ but found that she was too short to see anything.

"It's okay..." Fujiwara shook his head with an uneasy expression on his face. "Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe."

In Fujiwara's somewhat confused eyes, a car that was obviously a beat faster than the other cars disappeared in front.

Just now... did you see it wrong?

In the driver's seat of that car, a man wearing the mask of a young man from Noh was driving the car. Beside him was a young woman wearing a seat belt and blindfold, who seemed to be sleeping.

……

The hospital, Hattori Heiji's dimly lit ward.

The door of the room was gently twisted open, and then, a crisp and slightly nervous breathing sound appeared in the room.

Heiji Hattori woke up abruptly the moment the door was twisted open, but then the sound of breathing made him realize who was coming.

With such a crisp gasp, combined with the people who appeared here at this time, it was clear that the people who came were Yuan Shan and Ye No doubt.

This guy... finally came back, what did she do before, why did she waste so much time?

The sound of crisp footsteps sounded - it was a sound similar to He Ye's hard leather boots.

Well, now I'm even more sure it's He Ye... But why didn't she say a word?

Thinking like this, Hattori Heiji realized that the visitor had walked in front of her—judging from her calmness, and her willingness to never reveal her identity, she probably didn't realize that she was not asleep.

What are you going to do, He Ye?

Thinking like this, Hattori Heiji saw a vague figure standing quietly in front of his bed.

Then, the slender and cold fingers touched Hattori Heiji's wrist that was exposed outside the quilt.
