"In any case, he is the only player who attracts the most attention in this competition, the proud prince of kicking in Japan... Kyogoku Makoto!" The announcement continued from the tablet, "Next, let's start with Watch a video of his introduction..."
Suzuki Sonoko ran forward and took the tablet from Yamamura's hand, "Let me see!"
Seeing Suzuki Sonoko watching the broadcast with a silly look on her face, Mao Lilan asked curiously, "Sonzi, haven't you heard Kyogoku talk about this competition?"
Suzuki Sonoko smiled sheepishly, "Because he said that if I saw him trying to attract wealth, he might as well commit seppuku, so he never told me about the competition!"
Mao Lilan looked horrified, "Ha-haram?!"
Conan laughed inwardly, this could be considered the motivation for Kyogoku's 400-game winning streak...
"Officer Yamamura!" The police officer who went to investigate hurriedly came over, "About the identity of the victim..."
Yamamura Cao turned around and asked, "How's it going? Are you clear?"
"No, I called the production company of the show and asked. They said there is no advertiser named 'HOZUMI' because most of the staff have gone back, so I asked the part-time people," the middle-aged policeman said, A piece of printed paper was handed to Yamamura Cao, "I asked them to pass over a copy of the cast list."
"Well..." Yamamura Cao stared at the list for a moment and said with a speechless expression, "Is there really nothing wrong with this list? The dates on it are so messed up..."
Conan subconsciously thought of Chi Feichi.
He remembered that some time ago, Chi Feichi made a lot of soup dumplings and sent them to the detective office to make breakfast for them. He also helped Uncle Maoli organize the case report. It turned out that Uncle Maoli was also too big-hearted, so he just threw them all to Chi Feichi. .
It wasn't until the day before yesterday that the uncle needed to use the information and found that the dates marked on it were all messed up. He was forced to stay up late to help reorganize...
Speaking of date confusion, the people on that crew wouldn't be the same as Chi Feichi, right?
Probably not... Wait, speaking of dates, the name HOZUMI...
After getting rid of Chi Feichi's question, Conan instantly figured it out. His expression changed. Just as he turned around and was about to run out, he was quickly grabbed by a hand... by the back collar.
Conan: "..."
Feeling suffocated!
There was the unruly Bentang Yingyou in the past, and Chi Feichi who hanged himself on every disagreement. Has he been having bad luck recently?
Chi Feichi let go of Conan's collar, looked at Suzuki Sonoko, Mao Lilan, and Hondo Yingyou who were gathered together to watch the live intelligence game, then looked sideways at the door, turned around and walked quietly toward the door.
Conan understood and followed quietly out.
He almost forgot that there were many dangerous people on the mountain now, and they might not have left yet.
If he hurried to the mountains, Xiaolan and the others would definitely be worried, and they might even follow him.
It would be different if they secretly went to the mountain. When they found out that they were not there, Xiaolan and the others would think of the scary saying about "the dead souls lying on their backs" before going out, and they would most likely not go to the dark mountain where people had just died. Ran.
Well, this time he almost destroyed the 'intimidation' effect of his friend before. It was his fault, so he didn't complain about being 'hanged'.
They just... quietly... slipped away!
In the room, Hondo Yingyu was watching the live broadcast of the game with Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan. He was curious about Kyogoku. When he saw the mention of "Kyogoku didn't show up" in the live broadcast, he wanted to ask the senior Chi Feichi if he knew. Knowing what was going on, he looked up and found that Chi Feichi, who was standing near the door, was gone, and so was Conan.
Those two people must have gone to investigate the case.
Brother Fei Chi had been standing there quietly before, seeming to be relaxing, and seemed to be listening to the Yamamura Police Officer's questions. He gradually stopped paying attention. Conan, the little devil, was small and ran here and there. He got used to it. There's actually a bit of a lack of attention...so careless!
He also wanted to find out what happened to Conan, whether Brother Fei Chi was an ally, whether the so-called sleeping Mouri Kogoro was caused by Conan, or whether Brother Fei Chi conspired with Conan, what are the intentions of these two people, and what is the relationship between these two people? How much does Mizuna Reina know... Anyway, there are a lot of problems.
But it’s so dark outside, do you really want to go out?
Our hall Yingyou looked at the dark sky outside, gritted his teeth, and walked out.
"Huh?" Mao Lilan looked up, "Yingyou, where are you going?"
"I'm going out to get some fresh air." Yingyou turned around and smiled, looked away, and continued walking out with a firm gaze.
Didn’t you just hear some scary legends? He is not a coward!
…
There was no starlight or moonlight on the way up the mountain, and it was so dark that it was hard to see your fingers.
The mountains in autumn seem too quiet without the noisy insects and frogs.
Occasionally, on the roadside, a weaver girl who has passed her active period is disturbed by people going up the mountain. She makes a feeble 'squeak' sound, and the noise soon disappears.
In the distance, the branches and leaves also rustled for a while, and then stopped for a while. It seemed that something was hidden deep in the dark jungle, quietly peeping at the people going up the mountain, slowly getting closer, and then slowly moving away.
Hondou Yingyou stared at a beam of light moving not far away, and followed behind it, walking lightly, trying not to let the sound of falling leaves being stepped on pass through.
Next to the trampled fallen leaves, two black figures, one large and one small, stood quietly behind the tree, staring at the hall Yingyou sneaking past.
Hondou Yingyou looked around and continued to stare at the moving beam of light in front of him. It was the Conan kid's watch flashlight. In this dark night, as long as he kept a close eye on them, he would not lose sight of those two people.
However, it was probably because the wind in the mountain was wandering in the woods, and the back of his neck felt a little cold. Unconsciously, he thought of "the dead soul lying on his back", "blowing into the neck"...
Suddenly, Bentang Yingyou heard a soft sigh not far behind him, and it was like a gentle breath, and his body froze.
Can't look back!
"Why are you following me?"
The tone of the male voice behind him was too calm and familiar, but he remembered that according to legend, mountain goblins can imitate human voices and cannot look back!
After Chi Feichi finished speaking, he walked around to the front and looked at the motionless Bentang Yingyou, suspecting that the child was frightened.
In the dimness, Hondo Yingyou could not clearly see the face of the black figure in front of him. He kept one foot forward and turned into a stone sculpture. He stared at the black figure staring at him without blinking. Cold sweat gradually broke out.
Why didn't the other party move? Are you looking at him? Did he pretend to be a fool, or did he turn around and run away?
Conan was also worried that his friend Yingyou would be frightened, so he stepped forward and asked, "Brother Yingyou, are you... okay?"
He and Chi Feichi didn't mean to scare people, but they just noticed that someone was following them, so they asked Feichi to go first with his watch-shaped flashlight. He and Chi Feichi stayed behind, hiding behind a tree to watch.
There were more than one or two suspicious people in that group. If they alerted each other, there might be trouble, such as people running away, being suddenly attacked, being suddenly surrounded...
Hondou Yingyu continued to maintain his petrified posture, and suddenly found that the light beam moving in front turned towards them, and he was very happy.
As the beam of light got closer, Bentang Yingyou could see clearly that it was not the Conan he had imagined being carried by Chi Feichi at all, but a snake.
The gray-black snake wrapped its tail around a branch and held it high behind its back. A lighted watch was tied to the top of the branch. As the snake crawled in an S-shape, the light beam of the watch swayed slightly left and right on the ground in front of it, making it look like a flashlight. It was held by a child walking in the jungle with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"Not, not red?" Bentang Yingyou was stunned for a moment and looked up at the two black figures standing in front of him.
Because Fei Chi approached with a light source, the two people were illuminated behind him, and he could tell that the clothes were familiar to him, but the face behind the backlight was expressionless. Although it looked like he was speechless, it was still weird in the middle of the night.
"Not Brother Chi, but also...Conan?"
"You don't have to be so surprised, right?" Conan said speechlessly, "We are the ones who should be surprised. Why did you follow me here secretly?"
This hall Yingyou breathed a long sigh of relief, sat down on the fallen leaves, and softened his pale face, "I am very strange, why did you sneak out? If you find any clues, don't forget me, I can help too!”
Conan looked at his friend Yingyou for two seconds, then looked up at Chi Feichi and smiled innocently, with a cute childish voice, "Brother Yingyou, it's already pretty good without causing any trouble, right?"
"Ah?!" This hall Yingyou's face changed.
Chi Feichi bent down and stretched out his hand towards the main hall Yingyou, "Since we are here, let's go together. Let's go faster."
Conan didn't refuse. The mountain was very dangerous. Now that Yingyou was here, they couldn't leave Yingyou alone.
"Faster?" Our hall Yingyou was confused, but he still took Chi Feichi's hand and stood up before asking, "Did you really find important clues?"
"Yes, Brother Chi said he knew what was going on with the dirt under Mr. HOZUMI's fingernails. He planned to go and have a look. He happened to find someone sneakily following him behind, so he bothered Fei Chi to use this method to attract attention. , let’s hide behind the tree to see who it is.” Conan took the branch from Fei Chi, took off his watch and put it on, bent down and smiled at Fei Chi, “Thank you for your hard work just now, Fei Chi~!”
"So that's it." Seeing Chi Feichi walking forward, our hall Yingyou started to follow him and quietly tested, "But brother Feichi, why do you think of bringing Conan with you? What do you think of taking a child up the mountain in the middle of the night? It’s all a little strange…”
"Conan is very smart," Chi Feichi said without hesitation, "smarter than you think."
"Really?" Hondo Yingyu lowered his head and looked at Conan who was following him. The side of his glasses reflected in the light, making his eyes look mysterious and unpredictable.
Conan was secretly wary, what did this unruly man want to do? !
"In another ten years, he will definitely be a better detective than Mr. Maori, and he is very courageous. He is never afraid of corpses or the dark, so it doesn't matter if he comes to the mountain in the middle of the night." Chi Feichi slowed down and turned to head Yingyou He whispered, "This child... is sick."
Our hall Yingyou was confused, "Ah, huh?"
Conan listened attentively, but Chi Feichi's voice was too soft, and he could only vaguely hear the word 'child', and he felt nervous unconsciously.
What are these two people talking about? Why is this hall Yingyou so surprised? Could it be that Chi Feichi had discovered his anomaly a long time ago, but didn't say anything about it, and now he told Yingyou?
Nervous and curious, causing my heart to race.
"I used to have multiple personalities, and so did he." Chi Feichi whispered, looking at Conan who looked tense.
This was used by the famous detective to deceive him, so he pretended to believe it and secretly revealed to others the bad behavior of the famous detective who deceived him.
