Conan: The Mechanic

"Are you near here?" Following Conan's walk up the mountain, Chiba had already turned on the auxiliary unit and began to capture the details of the nearby scene with full power.

"It's still up there," Conan was probably recalling something. "I have to go to the Sengzhenggu Fudo Hall above, there is still a little distance from here."

"The top?" Qian Yu raised her eyebrows. "Did you follow this route at the time?"

"Yes," Conan nodded. "So we can't take the right path for the upward part. We need to walk through the jungle to retrace the road at that time... It's almost here."

Speaking of which, Conan pointed to the side of the road—there seemed to be the roots of a fallen tree, extending from in front of them to a higher place in front of them.

"Did you slide here from the root of this tree?" Chiba tried to use the auxiliary unit to observe the traces in the soil from the trail to the root of the tree-in order to build such a trail on the mountain, the builders were very concerned about this. Part of the soil was leveled. If someone runs down from above at a high speed, stepping on this part of the leveled soil and canceling the longitudinal kinetic energy will inevitably leave a deep hole in the leveled soil here.

But there are no traces, probably because time has passed for too long, and even if there were any traces, they have been smoothed out by the wind or something.

In this way, the three of them, under the leadership of Conan, walked up the long tree corpse on the soil slope.

"Did you slip down from here at the time?" Suddenly, Chiba said.

"Yes, how do you know—" Having said this, Conan's eyes locked on a bend in the tree trunk in front of him, and he suddenly realized. "Ah, did you see this?"

At the front bend, an unusual bark break is quite conspicuous - if Conan remembers correctly, he slipped down from this tree yesterday when he was chasing the attacker, and it was here that he Use the foot to carve a hole in the bark, and then change the sliding direction in this way.

"Yeah," Qianyu nodded. "This kind of irregular marks, and considering the size of the marks, it's just like your feet."

……

About five minutes later, the group came to the location of Seng Masaya Fudo-do, where Hattori Heiji was said to have been attacked by the attackers. It is worth noting that there are quite a lot of thick and tall trees nearby, and if they stand on the trees and attack like Conan mentioned to Chiba before, they are indeed almost impossible to find.

"It's up there," Conan said, pointing to a tree not far away. "He was the one who shot the arrow on that tree, and it hit this tree."

"Hmm..." Fujiwara narrowed his eyes slightly, then walked to the tree that was hit by the arrow pointed by Conan. "I saw arrow marks, but apparently the arrow has been removed."

"Well, so the place where the attacker shot the arrow is—" Qianyu looked in the direction of the tree where the attacker was hiding, but paused for a while, and then a subtle look appeared on his face.

There is no other reason, because he captured someone's cell phone signal. Although he has not entered the battle state now, so he did not fully activate the function of the signal base station, but he still turned on the monitoring of some people. As long as the mobile phone signals of these people come within a certain distance of him, he can complete the capture.

He detected the 2G signal from Saijo Taiga's cell phone, but how could he be here?

"What's the matter?" Conan immediately asked when he saw Qianyu's strange expression.

"No, I was just thinking about something..." Qian Yu said with a frown after thinking for a while. "Why did he choose to go around you in the mountains when he was fleeing, and finally get rid of you by burning the wooden bridge? If it were me, I would not re-circle back to Mount Kurama at all, but try to use traffic to bypass you."

"Probably he wasn't sure—" When he said this, Conan seemed to think of something and fell into deep thought.

"Why is he here to get rid of you with confidence?" Fujiwara also realized what the problem was. "It is impossible for him to prepare to assassinate you here before you come, so it is impossible to master the terrain here in advance in order to assassinate you. In any case, at most, he is very familiar with the terrain here for some reason, so when you come When you are here, you just choose to follow the trend. Then the question is, why is the other party so familiar with this place?"

"At least, I thought of a possible situation. Although it may be easier to confirm it by consulting the nearby residents, it is indeed a very likely situation." .

Just after he added the power of the identification function to the base station function and searched for nearby mobile phones in this way, he quickly found the same familiar number - but this number appeared here is even more staggering matter.

The signal of Yuanshan and Ye also appeared here, and according to the fact that the nearby base station did not search for the signal of Yuanshan and Ye~www.readwn.com~, it can be inferred that she should be in the deep mountains of Mount Anma.

Almost as soon as Chiba got the news, Saijo Taiga's cell phone signal disappeared from the range of the base station at the foot of the mountain.

……

"It seems that the abbot is still alive," Hattori Heiji, Chiga Suzu and Maurilan walked out of the main gate of the Fuguang Temple together. "Then, this possibility can basically be ruled out." Hattori Heiji said while walking.

"So it should be to investigate the remaining temples?" Maurilan asked.

"Yes," Hattori Heiji nodded. "So let's go left first—"

Right at this moment, Hattori Heiji suddenly stopped, startling Maurilan and Chiga Suzu who were still walking forward. "What's wrong?"

"I seem to have seen the 'Jade Site' just now..." With a somewhat uncertain tone, Hattori Heiji deviated from the original path and walked towards a wooden sign not far away.

It was an inconspicuous sign erected beside the wall. It said "Jade Dragon Temple Site".

Yulong Temple, it is not a coincidence that the name appears near the answer range of a treasure map sign with the shape of jade as a clue.

At this moment, Hattori Heiji's cell phone rang - the cell phone number belongs to Toyama Kazuha.

On Mount Kurama, Qianyu's brows were furrowed.

The Western Roman Empire collapsed in the 4th century, while the Eastern Roman Empire only perished under the siege of the Ottoman Turks in the 15th century. Although it is said that Eastern Rome is also dubbed the court of defeat, it has lasted a long time.

Next question, the first Rome is Rome before the East-West split, and the second Rome is Byzantium, so which country is the third Rome?
