Conan's Unscientific Detective

"How did that person suddenly appear on the bridge?"

Xiaolan had a horrified expression on her face, "I didn't even see it just now..."

“Maybe it’s because of the curvature of the suspension bridge.”

"Curvature?"

"We were standing far away just now, and the man was squatting in the middle of the bridge. We didn't see him because our sight was blocked by the cliff at the edge of the wooden bridge."

As he spoke, Fujino narrowed his eyes and explained, "As long as he suddenly stands up after we get close, we can create the illusion of his sudden appearance. In fact, this technique is often used in movies."

"So this is ah!"

Xiaolan nodded her head and patted her chest in relief. "I thought I had encountered some ghost."

"boom!"

At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from behind the two of them.

Xiaolan couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard the voice.

Turning around, I saw Conan jumping out of the trunk, but he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Looking at Conan who was covered in dust, Xiaolan couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Conan? Why are you here?!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Conan quickly got up, dusted himself off, and scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "Because I also want to go to Sonoko's villa, so......"

"So you got into the trunk and followed me secretly."

Fujino next to Xiaolan also turned his head.

He looked at Conan, who had sneaked into the trunk without him even noticing, with a speechless look on his face.

Wow, this brat must have gained some experience by drilling into the trunk, right?

Drill the trunk first, then the landing gear.

Is this kid a rat?

How to get to where you want to go?

"Conan, you can't do this!"

At this time, Xiaolan had already walked to Conan's side, first brushed the dust off Conan's back, and then taught him: "It's really rude to hide in someone else's trunk... And, such behavior is very dangerous!"

"Sorry, Sister Xiaolan..."

As he said this, Conan pretended to look pitiful, as if he was a Shiba Inu who had been wronged.

At the same time, he glanced at Fujino.

His eyes revealed full of vigilance and a sense of crisis.

It looks just like a Husky whose food has been stolen.

That Fujino guy is really abominable.

He actually brought Xiaolan to this mountain villa for a private meeting!

When I turn back into Kudo Shinichi, you, Fujino, will definitely suffer the consequences!

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but clench his little fists slightly.

"Okay, Xiaolan, it's getting late. If we're late, I'm afraid that Sonoko will nag us again."

As he said that, Fujino glanced at Conan's silly look and said, "Since little brother Conan has followed us secretly, let's take him with us."

"I'm causing trouble for you."

Xiaolan sighed, "I don't know what's wrong with this kid Conan. He's always so naughty with you, Fujino-senpai."

"Maybe this kid is closer to me."

The corners of Fujino's mouth curled up slightly, and he asked Conan meaningfully: "Isn't that right, little brother Conan?"

Conan shuddered at the words.

Looking at Fujino's weird smile, he vaguely felt that the glasses that guy was wearing were emitting a strange white light.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Conan laughed and nodded, and said in a strange baby voice: "It's like this, I like Fujino Dai the most, Gege!"

"So I said that the mental health education of teenagers needs to be given special attention."

Fujino leaned close to Xiaolan's ear and said, "Especially for a left-behind child like this who has a high IQ but was abandoned by his parents. Now he knows how to hide in the trunk of a car and follow others. What will happen in the future?"

As he spoke, his tone became more serious. "Serious problem teenagers like Conan should be kept under strict supervision. Otherwise, as they grow up, their problems will gradually become distorted, and sooner or later they will become perverts that endanger society..."

"A perverted demon who endangers society..."

Upon hearing this, Xiaolan swallowed her saliva and looked at Conan meaningfully.

Recalling all the strange behaviors of this child, she couldn't help but nodded towards Fujino Chicken Pecking at Rice.

Chapter 43: Confirmed by the eyes, it is the person who is about to be killed

"By the way, Sonoko, is there anyone with a bandage on his face among the people who came today?"

Xiaolan, who had just entered the villa, recalled the scene just now and asked Yuanzi fearfully.

"Bandaged?"

Yuanzi was surprised when he heard this.

After thinking for a moment, he responded: "No one who came today was injured. Why are you asking these questions, Xiaolan?"

"I just saw a man with a bandage on his face running from the suspension bridge to the back of the villa."

"You must have seen it wrong."

Yuanzi seemed a little impatient and waved his hand, "Maybe it's just a cat or a dog or something. There are still some wild animals in this forest."

"I'm sure I'm not seeing things!"

Xiaolan frowned, then looked at Fujino: "Senior Fujino, did you also see that strange man in the black cloak just now?"

Fujino nodded. "Just now on the suspension bridge, the two of us did see a strange man running behind this villa."

"This is weird... Is it possible?!"

Suddenly, Sonoko changed her tone, "Xiaolan, that guy you met, could he be the black-clad Grim Reaper?!"

"The Black Death?!"

"That's right!"

Yuanzi's face showed a serious look, and he explained: "Legend has it that there was once a man in a black cloak who died in this forest. Whenever a young girl came to this forest, he would......"

"He will..."

Xiaolan swallowed and stared at the garden seriously.

"He will jump out, tie up the girl and take her back to the cabin in the woods to eat her!"

"what!!"

"Hahaha!"

Looking at the horrified look on Xiaolan's face, a sly smile gradually appeared on Sonoko's face.

When Xiaolan came to her senses and realized that she had been teased, she looked at Yuanzi with resentment and said angrily: "Really Yuanzi, you actually scared me at this time!"

"Sorry, sorry, I just wanted to see how fearless Xiaolan would be."

With a smile on her face, Sonoko waved her hand and began to think about the bandage monster Xiaolan mentioned. "But the bandage monster you mentioned is indeed a bit strange."

"Forget it, forget it. It's a rare opportunity for us to come here to play. Don't think about it."

Yuanzi's little head couldn't figure out what that bandaged monster was, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Then he said to Fujino and Xiaolan, "Your room and Fujino-senpai's room are on the second floor. Hurry up and put your luggage away... The others have been resting for a long time."

"But there are so many rooms, which two are ours?"

The three of them walked up the stairs to the second floor. Xiaolan looked at the several doors of the rooms in the corridor in front of her and couldn't help but wonder.

Fujino frowned, looking thoughtful.

If he remembered correctly, the bandaged man was in one of the rooms on the second floor.

In the original book, it was because Xiaolan opened the door casually that she was attacked by that monster.

Maybe... he could also do some fishing and force that bandaged guy out.

Putting his thoughts aside, Fujino walked forward and pushed open the doors on the left and right of the corridor on the second floor.

Pushing open the first door, inside the room was a man with a middle-parted hairstyle that he had been practicing for two and a half years.

Fujino took a quick look and closed the door.

Pushing open the door of the second room, there was a fat man who looked honest and simple in appearance, but his body was extremely strong, and his figure formed a sharp contrast with the simple and simple face.

Fujino gave him a meaningful look and closed the door.

As for the last one, there was a hooligan-like playboy who was smoking and holding his briefs in his hand.

Looking at the naked young man in front of him, Fujino suddenly felt his scalp tingling.

He shook his head and then closed the door silently.

Finally, he found two empty rooms and called to Xiaolan, "Xiaolan, these two empty rooms should be the guest rooms that Yuanzi prepared for the two of us."

At this time, Conan, who was standing aside, looked at Fujino speechlessly.

"This guy, doesn't he knock on the door before opening it?"

Fujino noticed Conan's gaze, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said to Xiaolan who was about to take Conan into the guest room: "Xiaolan, how about letting Conan stay in my room today?"

After saying that, he looked at Xiaolan meaningfully.

Xiaolan nodded in understanding, recalling the topic just now about "Conan is a child with psychological problems", and understood the meaning of Fujino's words.

Then he chuckled and said, "In that case, Conan will have to trouble you, Fujino-senpai!"

"what?"

Looking at the tacit understanding between Xiaolan and Fujino, Conan seemed a little confused.

Before he could recover from the shock, he was dragged over by Fujino.

Fujino stroked his dog's head and chuckled meaningfully, "Conan, don't you like being with me?"

"It seems like I'll have to take good care of you tonight!"

"a ha ha ha……"

This guy definitely did it on purpose!

Absolutely!

…………

The sky gradually became gloomy and the wind was howling, as if a storm was pressing down on the city.

After packing their luggage, the group of guests who came to the villa today came to the living room downstairs.

Sitting at the dining table, Sonoko began to introduce everyone who came to the villa this time to Xiaolan and Fujino.

Just as Fujino remembered, these people were classmates in a club during college.

The guy sitting opposite me with a middle-parted hair is called Hiroki Kadoya, and he is a film magazine editor who has been training for two and a half years.

The fat guy sitting diagonally opposite is called Takahashi Ryoichi. He currently works in a food company, although his face looks bloated.

The last bird brother is named Masaru Ota, and he is a car salesman.

It doesn't look like a good thing at first glance.

"The next one is my older sister, who was in charge of costume making when she was in college."

As she spoke, Sonoko pointed at Ayako who was sitting next to her with a gentle smile on her face and smirked, "By the way, she's looking for a husband now!"
