"Are you okay? Do you need my help?"
Although she didn't know why Natsukawa attacked the door of the Kitamura couple's room, she still subconsciously believed that Natsukawa was not doing anything bad, especially since Maori and his group were nearby.
"It's okay, just protect Anya and Xiaolan in the room."
After saying that, Xia Chuan walked straight into the bedroom.
Looking at the broken door that had been kicked to the ground, Kaito couldn't help swallowing.
So strong! If this kick landed on someone, the consequences would be disastrous.
The room was dark and silent, with only the cold wind whistling in.
Xia Chuan took a closer look and saw that the windows were not even closed. It would be a bit too much to say that he was sleeping in this situation.
Several people looked around quickly, and finally stopped their gaze on the bed.
On the bed, the Kitamura couple did not move at all, looking extremely peaceful, as if it was not their door that was kicked in.
"died."
Koizumi Hongzi glanced at the two of them and made an instant judgment.
Her eyes stayed on the window for a long time, and while Conan and Maori Kogoro were examining the body, she called Kaito and Natsukawa out the door.
"The Snow Girl has left."
"Will it kill people again?" Kaito couldn't help but worry. Compared to the horrific death of Yoko Asanuma, the peaceful death of the Kitamura couple was even more weird.
If the Snow Woman continues to commit crimes, the surrounding villages may not be spared, including his childhood sweetheart Nakamori Aoko.
Absolutely not!
"Not for now. It's not easy for the Snow Girl to create such a large snowstorm barrier right after revival. After killing Asanuma Yoko and the old couple, it should return to its nest to recuperate."
"Where is the nest?" Xia Chuan asked, and the next moment he thought of the snowy mountain outside.
Akiko Kinoshita was sacrificed in the snowy mountains. Perhaps the Snow Woman's lair is there.
“Yes, its nest is in the snowy mountains.
According to the records passed down by my family, there is a cave on the hillside of this snowy mountain. Hundreds of years ago, the Snow Girl was sealed in the cave. "
"Is this another masterpiece of your Koizumi family?"
Koizumi Hongzi nodded without saying anything, and raised her head proudly. Her Koizumi family has contributed a lot to this country and this world.
Today, she is the only heir left in the huge Koizumi family.
Xia Chuan raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "Since you can seal it, why don't you just kill it directly? Why do you have to keep it for hundreds of years and let it escape accidentally?"
"Asking knowingly."
Koizumi Hongzi rolled her eyes, thinking that Xiachuan was making fun of her. They were both magicians, how could he not understand this?
Monsters and demons are not so easy to eliminate. They are all products of nature. As long as they are connected to nature, their power will gradually increase.
The purpose of the Koizumi family's seal is to gradually extract its magic power and isolate the monsters from the natural world. Like boiling a frog in warm water, the monsters will naturally dissipate one day.
Xiachuan: ...
Forget it, I won’t ask anymore. Although I know that the other party has some misunderstandings about his abilities, Xia Chuan thinks this misunderstanding is a good thing.
It's important to maintain mystery.
In the room, Conan was running around and was given a slap on the face by Kogoro Mouri, who then threw him out.
But he didn't think of going in again. He had checked enough and had already deduced the result.
This, like Yoko Asanuma's death, was an accident.
Although the possibility of two consecutive accidents is very small, it has happened.
Sometimes you have to have the courage to accept reality.
Noticing that Conan seemed to be thinking about something, Xia Chuan chuckled and asked, "Have you figured out anything? What was the cause of the Kitamura couple's death?"
Yoko Asanuma was clearly killed by the Snow Woman, but Conan was able to assert that it was an accident, which is quite interesting.
It is especially interesting when the other party reasons and explains the reasons.
Now, he also wanted to hear Conan's opinion on the death of the Kitamura couple.
"Yes."
Conan completely forgot that there were two unfamiliar strangers next to him. When he heard Xia Chuan's question, he subconsciously began to explain:
"I saw sleeping pills on the table of the Kitamura couple. It seems that their sleep quality is not very good. They habitually take sleeping pills before going to bed every day.
The reason why his death was so strange was that he lost his senses after taking sleeping pills.
In addition, I also checked the windows and found that the most important reason was still the windows.
The old windows were probably hit by the snowstorm and the bolts on them were accidentally knocked off. Without the bolts, the windows would open naturally.
After the window was opened, the blizzard was allowed to pour in. The Kitamura couple took sleeping pills to fall asleep, so they could not feel the cold. In addition, they were old and had poor resistance. After a long time, they were frozen to death by the low temperature.
I'm afraid they died earlier than Yoko Asanuma."
“How exciting!”
Kaito couldn't help but applaud, and rubbed the other person's hair a few times to show his appreciation.
He had met this kid several times before, and he was indeed not an ordinary person.
The key is that this big head looks pleasing to the eye and cute, as if I had seen it a long time ago.
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Brother Kaito." Conan scratched his head, glanced at Maori Kogoro who was still looking around inside, and said, "This is what Uncle Maori taught me."
"Didn't it happen on TV or your dad called you that in Hawaii?" Xia Chuan asked faintly.
"Yes, I have learned it anyway."
Chapter 213 Conan, look, this is the Snow Girl!
Conan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that he had been too high-profile again.
Fortunately, both Koizumi Akako and Kuroba Kaito know Natsukawa, so they are probably not bad people, so there is probably no need to worry too much.
Plus, since I don't have much interaction with these two people, they probably just think I'm smarter than the average kid and won't delve into it too much.
But what were they talking about outside? Did I miss anything when I was investigating?
After thinking for a few seconds, Conan's mouth suddenly twitched. Maybe he was overthinking!
I'm afraid that Koizumi Akako is just "popularizing science" about the snow woman again, and she has not discovered any clues related to the case.
What era is it now? Still doing this? Impression score -1.
However, considering that the other person is brave enough to wear cool summer party clothes in this weather, the impression points are +100.
Whether there is any material or not is another matter, the main thing is that these legs are longer than his life.
To sum up, apart from being a little superstitious, Koizumi Akako should be a pretty good person.
“Okay, let’s go to the snow mountain now. Before the Snow Girl digests these people’s souls, I should be able to seal them again.
If I wait until it completely absorbs several souls, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to catch it."
Although Koizumi Akako was confident that she could defeat the Snow Girl, she couldn't stop her if she really wanted to escape after she recovered. In order to avoid any future trouble, she had to interrupt her soul-devouring ability at this time.
"That's the only way." Kaito glanced outside and nodded.
No matter how strong the snow and wind are, he has to go with Koizumi Hongzi.
Aoko is here, and he must deal with the Snow Girl to ensure her safety.
Xia Chuan didn't care. After all, he also wanted to see the legendary monster. This was very interesting.
As for his safety, he still has some confidence in his martial arts ability, and he can definitely run much faster than Kaito!
If you have the chance, it is important to confirm whether the Snow Girl can be hit by physical attacks.
If not possible, then he planned to ask Frank to find some temples to ask for some magical instruments or something.
Or let Dr. Agasa do some research on it. Anyway, this world is already so unscientific, so there shouldn't be any problem in researching something that can target monsters.
You can try things like demon-killing bombs and silver-coated bullets.
Speaking of which, Mafuwa is a good idea.
All you need is an electric rice cooker to defeat all the demons in the world.
"I want to go too!" Conan raised his hand to sign up.
"Don't you believe in this kind of thing?" Koizumi Hongzi looked down at Conan. The deathly aura that the other person exuded all the time was very annoying.
The reason why the Snow Girl attacked the Kitamura couple might be because she discovered a strong aura of death nearby and sensed the danger, so she wanted to eat more food to restore her strength in order to fight against possible danger.
"But I really want to see it. Snow Girl, you sound so amazing!"
Conan is ready to go to the scene to expose Koizumi Akako's feudal superstition.
I heard from Nakamori Aoko that Koizumi Akako was her classmate and also a high school student.
As high school students, how can we learn these feudal and superstitious things? Newton and Einstein are crying.
......
Under Conan's strong request, Natsukawa agreed.
After all, it's Conan, so it's never a bad thing to bring him along. If you really encounter a snow girl, you can throw Conan at her like a bomb, which might have a good effect.
Kaito was obviously unaware of Natsukawa's thoughts and was somewhat confused by this decision.
"It's so cold, Hongzi, why don't you use your magic to keep out the cold on Conan as well?"
For some reason, even though this kid isn't very likable, Kaito really cares about him from the bottom of his heart.
After all, he is just a child... Kaito convinced himself in his heart that he is also a very caring high school thief.
Koizumi Hongzi rolled her eyes: "I would like to..."
It's not that she doesn't want to, but Conan's own indiscriminate magic resistance is too high, so it's impossible to enchant.
"No need, this outfit of mine is an invention of Dr. Agasa. It can automatically maintain a constant temperature, so I won't feel cold at all."
Conan is not dressed in a suit and shorts today, but in long trousers and a cotton jacket.
"Dr. Agasa?" Kaito seemed to be thinking about something, as if many of the equipment that Grandpa Terai prepared for him were made by this inventor.
"A very good inventor. Kaito should have heard of his name."
Natsukawa's smile had a hint of meaning, and only Kaito understood what he meant.
This guy, he even knows my equipment channel? Kaito gritted his teeth. It seemed that he had to continue investigating Xiachuan, otherwise he would appear to be very ignorant at this time.
The few of them chatted casually and soon arrived at the foot of the snow-capped mountain and began climbing.
This snow mountain is actually not very high, only about 700 to 800 meters, but the slope is relatively gentle, so it still takes a lot of time to walk up.
Especially now that the blizzard is so severe, it really affects the speed of travel.
As he walked, Conan suddenly discovered a problem.
The higher he went up the mountain, the worse his vision became, even if he followed the footprints of Xia Chuan and the other two. He could see that the snow was almost above his waist.
"Uncle Xiachuan, can you carry me up? There's a blizzard and an avalanche, and the snow is too deep."
As he spoke, Conan sank so low that only a small tuft of hair on top of his head was exposed above the snow.
"it is good."
Seeing that the other person was sweating profusely, Xia Chuan nodded and picked him up.
Holding Conan in my arms, I walked forward on the snow.
The advantage of being tall is long legs, which comes in handy when encountering this kind of situation.
"By the way, there won't be another avalanche, right?" Kaito muttered, a little scared.
The scene in the evening is still vivid in my mind. I survived, but the posture of going down the mountain like a clown was too unsightly. I don’t want to do it again.
Fortunately, there was too much chaos during the avalanche and no one saw his situation, otherwise he would have been killed.
"Who knows, maybe the Snow Girl has already discovered our presence by now."
As she said this, Koizumi Hongzi glanced at Conan obscurely.
