Puppet making room.
Conan and Hattori Heiji chatted for a few more words, and then Hattori Heiji asked: "...Hey, Kudo, we already know how the murderer invited Mr. Shinichi to the second floor of the puppet warehouse, but what about his killing methods? No?"
"...Not yet." Conan immediately shook his head, "...The door at the crime scene was locked from the inside, and the only open window could only allow children to pass through. In other words, it was a secret room! According to me It is inferred that the murderer either had some way of leaving the secret room after killing someone, or he killed someone directly outside through the open window..."
"...Damn it! There are still too few clues..."
"Well... let's go back to the scene now and investigate it carefully again!" Hattori Heiji stood up and took out his pockets, "... Speaking of which, Kudo, do you think there is something very strange about that scene? "
Conan was stunned for a moment and replied: "You mean, the ball of fishing line wrapped around the body, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Hattori Heiji nodded repeatedly, "...I always feel that there must be a reason why the murderer did what he did... If we can solve this mystery, maybe we can solve the case."
The two people talked, left the puppet production room together, and walked into the puppet warehouse.
At the same time, inside the bedroom where the girls were resting.
Xiaolan rummaged through her luggage bag and frowned: "...It's strange, where has my lucky thing gone? It was still hanging on my wallet just now..."
"Lucky thing? Could it be that you dropped it in the car when you went to the cemetery before?" Heye asked curiously, and then said with a smile, "...How about we go look for it together? Robert returned it just now. After taking the car key, Mr. Yongzo put it by the telephone in the corridor and forgot to take it away..."
"Ah? Isn't this not good? Dad just told us not to move around..." Xiaolan hesitated.
"Leave for a while, it doesn't matter!" Kazuye blinked and smiled slightly. Tsukamoto Sumi, who was sleeping unintentionally next to him, said with a smile:
"...are you looking for something? Why don't I go with you..."
"Well... no need, Xiaolan and I can go alone." He Ye hesitated, "... If the three of us go out, it won't be safe to leave Xiao Ai alone in the house..."
"Uh... okay." Tsukamoto Sumi looked at Haibara and nodded.
While several people were talking, Xiaolan and Heye put on their coats and walked to the parking warehouse together despite the rain...
…
On Spider Lake.
Koizumi Hongzi and Mingmei teamed up to beat the spider demon until it was covered in scars and ran around——
Although the spider demon is not weak, one of the enemies it faces is Koizumi Anko, who is much stronger than it. The other Holy Ghost Ghost Akemi is not much weaker than it. With one against two, how can it possibly defeat it? An opponent?
To be honest, if Koizumi Hongzi hadn't been worried that using powerful magic would destroy the spider demon's spinning device, the spider demon would have been killed long ago.
By the spider lake, Shu Yunwen looked at the embarrassed spider demon, and then at the pleading Takeda Misa beside him, and said: "...Since you asked me to rescue your mother, you should go and help now... Well , By the way, when you attack, be careful not to attack the spider demon's abdomen. Xiaoquan-san wants the spider demon's spinner, and it would be bad if you break it..."
"Yeah, okay." Misa Takeda nodded, moving her eight legs, and rushed to the side of the spider demon. A pair of human hands suddenly turned into two spider forelimbs, and the power of the incense condensed into a "blade" full of jagged edges. ", slashed towards the waist of the spider demon, and roared:
"...Let go of my mother!"
"Uh..." Koizumi Anko and Akemi were startled by Takeda Misa's sudden entry. Shu Yunwen quickly explained the cause and effect of the matter. Koizumi Anko frowned:
"...Don't break the spinneret!"
The spider demon was originally very difficult to fight one on two, but now there is another Takeda Misa who is not inferior to it in strength. She is completely passive and is beaten continuously.
After barely resisting for a few times, the spider demon seemed to want to escape and leaped towards the "spider web" in the air. Unfortunately, there was only one spider thread left around it, and the others had been interrupted, and it had no time to crawl to it. The spider web was once again attacked by Anko Koizumi, Akemi, and Misa Takeda, and it was easy to fight...
More than ten seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and it seemed that the spider demon could not be defeated. After whining a few times, it actually dived into the spider lake and fled back to its lair.
When the spider demon entered the water, Koizumi Anko's claws were paralyzed, but Narumi, Akemi, and Takeda Misa didn't care about this. They followed the spider demon into the water and continued to beat them violently. In order to help her mother get out of control, Takeda Misa even went crazy. Using his ultimate move, he forcibly activated the power of incense, and used the spider silk condensed by the power of incense to drag the spider demon out of the water...
In the repeated ravages, the spider demon's demon power has been depleted a lot. The soul hidden in the spider demon's body has become weaker and weaker in controlling Takeda Kinuyo's soul. The recovery speed of the "spider silk" used to control it has also become weaker. Slower and slower.
In the blink of an eye, four minutes passed, and the spider threads that controlled Takeda Kinuyo's soul were interrupted again. Shu Yunwen estimated that the recovery interval of the spider threads this time was enough to take away Takeda Kinuyo's soul, and immediately chanted the word "photograph". , a burst of witchcraft power flew out from Shu Yunwen's fingers, and Takeda Kinuyo's soul was quickly peeled off from the spider demon's body, and finally formed a soul ball, which flew back to Shu Yunwen's hands.
As soon as the soul ball was completed, the spider demon hissed a few more times, and its body returned to the shape of a spider. It lay on the ground by the lake and struggled slowly. The original normal body changed little by little, and a pattern appeared on it. Large scorch marks.
Upon seeing this, Koizumi Anko quickly flew down from the air, held a magic shield, and slowly approached the spider demon to observe the situation.
As for Misa Takeda, she had already flown back to Shu Yunwen and asked nervously: "...Sir Yunwen, my mother..."
Shu Yunwen glanced at the soul ball in his hand and said: "...she has been rescued, but as I told you before, her soul is damaged and is slowly dissipating. At the current speed, she can survive at most Fifteen minutes..."
"Only... fifteen minutes?" Misa Takeda murmured in a low voice.
"...Yes, maybe not yet..." Shu Yunwen nodded and let go of Takeda Kinuyo's soul, "...Forget it, I will help you to the end. Your mother probably won't be able to make a sound now. I Here are two treasures that can solidify your mother's ghost body and make sounds, which can facilitate your communication..."
Shu Yunwen was talking when suddenly, Koizumi Hongzi shouted: "Be careful! This spider demon is not dead yet!"
Shu Yunwen was stunned when he heard the words, and looked over following Koizumi Hongzi's voice, only to see that the spider demon that was developing into coke was actually controlled by the remnant soul of more than four hundred years ago, and regained its vitality. , the appearance is much more ferocious than before. Not to mention other things, the eight legs that have become like sharp blades make it look much taller, not to mention, the human shape revealed by its head is still a Represents the powerful bald head! ~
Shu Yunwen stared at the spider demon with a vigilant expression, a black line on his forehead——
Damn it! Are we really going to fight the BOSS in the next dungeon? Just now, you finished playing the first form. Now is the second form coming out? !
Shu Yunwen complained in his heart, and then suddenly froze——
etc! The remnant soul hidden in the spider demon's body is actually a bald man, and he is also an "old ghost" from more than four hundred years ago!
Could his true identity be the legendary one...
A practicing monk? !
