The sky became increasingly gloomy.
Layers of dark clouds quietly covered the heads of the group of people.
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, thunder roared.
The dark path was briefly illuminated, and soon the rain began to fall.
"What a tragedy! My only spare set of clothes was given to Kudo... Everyone, hurry up! Run back to the hotel!" Hattori Heiji led the charge.
The truth of a year ago, Kudo's memory, and the countdown to the effectiveness of the antidote, all three mountains were weighing on his shoulders. If he accidentally caught a cold and fell ill, everything would be over!
At the same time, on a big tree a few meters away from everyone, a pair of eyes were watching quietly.
Lightning flashes in the sky from time to time.
The figure followed forward for a while, and finally stopped in front of the hotel, turned around and walked back to the forest.
At midnight.
There was a break in the wind and rain, and everyone in the village fell into a deep sleep.
The cold and weak moonlight fell from the gaps in the gradually dispersing clouds. As time passed, a dark shadow appeared next to the cabin.
There was an unusual silence.
Suddenly, a series of rhythmic "dong dong" sounds suddenly came into my ears.
Stop for a while.
It seemed like someone was standing outside the door, beating the door panel as a drum... However, changing the scene to a mountain forest late at night, it looked so weird no matter how you looked at it.
There was no response from the cabin.
But if you listen carefully, you can still vaguely hear a "rustling" noise.
The atmosphere seemed to be frozen.
It seems like a long time has passed, and it seems like only ten seconds have passed.
Finally, the door of the cabin quietly opened a gap, and it was still dark inside, as if something was standing there peeping out.
After the rain, the cliff bank of the lake showed a pale scenery in the moonlight, but not a single figure could be seen.
The gap in the door slowly widened.
The door panel and door frame rubbed against each other, making a squeaking sound that was difficult to conceal.
Just when the people inside the wooden house wanted to poke their heads out to check the situation, they heard a "dang" sound. In the shadow where the moonlight could not shine, a stick with green branches and leaves swung from above, smashing it without any room. on the former's head.
The white hair was instantly dyed red with blood.
Immediately afterwards, Kudo Shinichi, who was pretending to be Death God, felt his eyes spinning and fainted before he could react.
Just solve one... kill someone. After all, living in a double room with Mouri Kogoro, there are some things you can't do too obviously.
Ye Geng reached out and grabbed the other person's back, and quickly searched his body. After confirming that there was no communication device, he blocked the person in front of him and kicked the wooden door.
Bang!
The door panel flew out and hit the table.
At the same time, Ye Gengyi saw that there was no one else inside.
only one?
And the fewer people who know about...this kind of thing, the safer it will be.
Ye Gengyi thought to himself and walked into the house. Only now did he take the time to lift the white hair of the 'non-mainstream' man from his hands that covered his entire face.
Um?
Why is there another Kudo Shinichi doing mass production? As long as one of them is seen, wouldn't the whole plan fail... This is the first thought that flashes in Ye Gengyi's mind.
Immediately afterwards, his eyes fell on the other party's familiar face and head bleeding with sticky blood, and his expression gradually became astonished:
"Wait...it can't be right?"
…
It hurts...
A tearing pain kept attacking Kudo Shinichi's nerves. He felt like he had had several dreams, waking up again and again, and falling asleep again and again. However, his thoughts were still confused, and there were inexplicably more things in front of him. Lots of phantoms.
He dreamed of the scene in Dorobiga Paradise when he was beaten by Gin. In a trance, he saw that person turning into Mouri Kogoro, Mouri Ran, Hattori Heiji, Dr. Agasa... and more. Big Brother!
He felt that his breathing was trembling, and finally, at a certain moment, he used the remaining strength to open his eyes.
His vision completely changed from blurry to clear.
He saw an expressionless face staring at him under the moonlight streaming in from the window.
"woke up?"
"ah!!!"
Kudo Shinichi screamed strangely, supporting his body and trying to sit up from the floor.
"Don't move, tell me, who are you?"
Ye Gengyi didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed. When he asked the question, he still held the wooden stick he used in the previous "murder" in his hand.
It seems that as long as I don't get the explanation I want, this thing will come back the next second.
...So, what just happened was not a dream? Hiss...it hurts.
Kudo Shinichi unconsciously touched the back of his head. The pain quickly made him regain his composure. Remembering that the other party must be wondering about the 'two Kudo Shinichi', he quickly said in a hoarse voice: "Teacher Ye, it's me..."
"Kudo-kun?"
Ye Gengyi took the wooden stick and continued to ask: "Why are you here? Who is going back to the hotel with us?"
Kudo Shinichi looked at the stick with lingering fear, and did not dare to neglect and quickly explained: "Teacher Ye, I am the real Kudo Shinichi. The person with you is Yada Makoto who pretended to be me. I guess he should It was plastic surgery..."
"Where's the evidence?" Ye Gengyi asked without any slack: "And what's going on with your clothes?"
"I was imprisoned in this house by him before. When I escaped, I accidentally fell into the lake. I had no choice but to change into the clothes in the house..." Kudo Shinichi considered his words: "As for the evidence ...I really can’t take it out now, but Teacher Ye, we have solved President Tatsumi’s case together before, as well as the Kyoto serial murder case. You saved Hattori and me in Benkei’s dojo. Others, uh... You can also ask me any questions."
He originally planned to talk about scenes from daily life, but after a rough thought, the intersection between Kudo Shinichi and Ye Gengyi seemed to be nothing more than the case...
Therefore, without any preparation, he did not dare to lie in front of this person, and could only carefully pick out the truth that could be told... After all, Brother Gengyi really hit him with a stick, and the back of his head still hurts Woolen cloth!
"oh……"
Is the Shinigami disguised as Makoto Yada? But...the time is different from the description of Officer Chengshan by several decades.
Ye Geng thought for a while and said, "What happened to the case a year ago?"
"Teacher Ye, you must have heard some rumors, right? But I can tell you for sure that my reasoning is not wrong. The truth of that case is indeed that the Japanese village chief disguised himself as a robber to kill people, and after forcing his wife to commit suicide, he He committed suicide by jumping off the building."
Kudo Shinichi smiled bitterly and prepared to elaborate on the love and hatred of Village Chief Hihara: "I saw you in the forest before and went to the second floor of the room. You should have noticed the medal of Mayor Hihara in the study, right? "
"I don't listen to nonsense. Let's talk about the important points." Ye Gengyi raised the stick in his hand.
Hey hey! This is too much!
Kudo Shinichi twitched the corner of his mouth and said directly: "Hihara Daiki is not the village chief's son, but his wife had an affair with someone else. Considering Daiki's age, I may not be able to accept this truth. So I discussed with the police officer a year ago and announced the case as a robbery and murder."
He spoke quickly, "By the way, the missing jewelry and murder weapons were thrown into the lake below us by the Japanese village chief by throwing a hammer ball. These are all true. The police had already found the evidence that year. !”
