Chapter 108: Rescue (II)
"Okay, now that we're in front of the building, let's plan it...... Hey, don't go, listen to me!"
"Okay, okay, this is the fourth building, you don't want so many plays!"
Everyone waved their hands impatiently, and then walked towards the building in front of them.
Yes, I don't know if they were too unlucky or what, a one-quarter possibility, they were stunned to find the three-quarters first. Of course, it is not without benefits, that is, after the search of the first three houses, they don't need to be reminded too much, they are already familiar with the road and know how to search carefully. In this respect, it can be regarded as lucky.
So, the group skillfully lowered their figures, hid in the darkness, and quietly sneaked into the abandoned mansion.
"Someone has been here. ”
As soon as he entered the hall, Takaya couldn't help but stop and look at the scattered and obvious footprints on the floor.
In fact, even without his reminder, everyone already felt an extraordinary dead silence. Different from the simple silence of the previous three buildings, the silence here is full of a strange sense of dullness and depression, like a person whose mouth has been covered, obviously desperately trying to call for help, but can't make a sound.
"Looks like we've finally found the right place this time. With that, Takaya walked over to the footprints and crouched down.
"What are you doing, Hawkya?"
Seeing Eagle Arrow scanning back and forth at the pile of footprints several times, stretching out his finger again, and constantly comparing to those footprints, Xiaolan couldn't help but walk behind him curiously, and asked in a low voice.
"Let's get a general idea. Eagle Ya said without replying.
"Approximately?" Xiaolan still didn't understand what Eagle Arrow meant.
"It's footprints, right, Brother Eagleya?" Conan on the side couldn't help but remind him.
However, as if he had not heard, Takaya did not answer, and was immersed in the pile of dust and footprints. And everyone watched him silently draw talismans from the sky for a while, and then inserted his fingers into the thick dust on the ground, in and out for a while, and then finally seemed to be finished, slowly raised his head, wiped his hands, and said to the people behind him.
"I have roughly identified seven pairs of different shoe prints," said Taka Ya, pointing out the different shoe prints on the ground with his fingers, "and six of them are over forty-one yards, and judging by the thickness of the dust and my own footprints, they must be relatively muscular men." The other pair of shoe prints is obviously relatively small, the size is about thirty-six yards, and the footprints are generally not so clear. ”
Moreover, these footprints are particularly unnatural, not to mention the depth of the print, the focus point is heavy before and light at the back, and the distance is not stable, the time is short, and it should be pushed forward by someone to leave such traces. There are only two footprints with such strange footprints, one is the footprint of the woman just now, and the other is a sneaker print that is 42 yards old, which should be the kidnapped Mr. Yamabe and her girlfriend Miss Eri. The remaining five should be left behind by the gangsters who kidnapped them!"
When Taka spoke about this long list of analyses, he found that everyone except Conan was looking at him blankly.
"Hmm, I'm saying it so clearly, don't you still understand?" said Takya, confused.
"Huh...... No, it's not, it's just that I suddenly feel that you really know a lot! Well, it's the same as Shinichi!"
Hearing that Eagle Arrow could tell such a big analysis from this footprint in front of him, Xiaolan couldn't help but sigh with heartfelt emotion.
"Although it sounds like a compliment, I always feel that what you express is very rude......" Hearing Xiaolan's words, Yingya suddenly rolled his eyes angrily, "Especially the last sentence can be omitted, or the other way around!"
"Conan also thinks that Shinichi's brother should be more knowledgeable!"
"Huh?"
At this time, a certain little ghost suddenly said this sentence shamelessly, which made Eagle Arrow glance at him with contempt.
Sensing Eagle Ya's disdainful gaze, a certain little ghost deliberately pushed his glasses, not only completely blocking the erosion of vision, but also using the cold lenses to reflect an unpleasant cold light, almost blinding Eagle Ya's eyes in this dark night.
I almost couldn't suppress the surging true qi in Ren Du's second vein, and kicked this kid out like his favorite football. After all, a famous Japanese star Tsubasa Ozora once said that a friend is a ball!
Heaven Mingjian, if this occasion didn't allow it, he really wanted to try the legendary abduction meteor.
"Forget it, it's important to save people. Glancing at him with disdain, Eagle Arrow couldn't help but turn her gaze back to the pile of footprints.
Five people, not much, if it is the black knight who is here at this time, it is easy and pleasant to clean them up. It's just that, as a feather wood eagle arrow, and with a bunch of weak women (?), then it is necessary to plan and act.
"That's it, Xiaolan, you and I quietly touch up the stairs on both sides to investigate the situation, and then Conan, Xia Fan and Sakura ...... Hey, what about Xia Fan?" The thought was fleeting, and just as Eagle Ya looked around at everyone, ready to assign a little work, he suddenly found that his sister and the martial arts girl had disappeared. No, everyone except Conan is gone.
"While you're staring at that pile of antecedents, your sisters have already sneaked up on them!" Conan said angrily.
"What? Those two girls are really ...... Why don't you stop them!" Hearing Conan's words, Takaya scratched his head anxiously.
"I want to stop it, but do you think I can stop it?" After speaking, Conan couldn't help but look at his body depressedly, "Xiaolan wanted to stop them, but she didn't dare to shout loudly, so she could only follow them up!"
"Wow, how can young people nowadays be so impulsive! I'm going to have to beat her up when I catch up!"
You are embarrassed to say this to others...... Oh, don't mention my collar!Ah, let me down, I'll go myself!"
=====================================================================
"Okay, let's go in, don't think about making any small moves, get ready to work early tomorrow morning!"
On the seventh floor, the robbers escorted Yamanbe's arm with one hand and a gun to his head with the other, pushing him into a room.
"I understand, I'll cooperate, I just ask you not to hurt Eri!"
Koichi Yamabe, who usually never bows his head to sin, lowered his head at this time, and said pleading in a low tone.
Because right in front of him, another robber was in the same position, escorting his helpless tearful girlfriend.
"That's right, stay honest, let's save some things, and when the matter is over tomorrow, we will set you free!"
The two robbers looked at each other and sneered, then pushed Yamanbe and his girlfriend inside, locking the door from the outside.
"Koichi!"
Seeing those men leaving, Eri on the side couldn't help but throw herself into Yamabe's arms anymore, trembling and hugging him.
"Are you alright, Eri?"
The body in his arms was cold and a little scary, and the shivering that was suppressed was not known to be because of the cold or fear, all the mountain could do was to hug her tightly, and use his body and arms to convey some warmth to her.
"I'm fine......"
Having said that, Eri's trembling did not stop, but buried her head deep in his arms, clutching his clothes tightly, as if grasping the last straw, pulling the mountain's clothes out of shape.
"Koichi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have ...... at all."
"Stupid! It's not your fault at all! It's because of me...... No, it's the guys, it's all the guys' fault!"
Feeling the warmth coming from his chest, Yamanbe couldn't help but clench his teeth. Not only does he feel deep self-reproach for letting his girlfriend fall into such a dangerous situation for himself, but he also feels extremely annoyed by his powerlessness.
"Now, Koichi, tomorrow...... Are you really going to do that? And are they really going to let us go?"
Eri's voice was soft, leaning against Yamanbe's arms, as if muttering to herself.
"Don't think about it so much, just trust me! I'll get you out, Eri!"
Yamabe's hand trembled slightly, but he still hugged his girlfriend firmly, as if he was saying a promise to her, as if he was saying it to himself.
He didn't answer Eri's question directly, because he knew in his heart that there was no way those guys would let them go. Even if he really sniped that target tomorrow as they said, they would never let them go.
Because, none of them are masked.
The lack of a mask means that they are not afraid of being seen by themselves as a police officer, which means that from the beginning, they did not intend to let him and Eri go back alive!
[Please!It's good for anyone!Don't pay attention!]
Yamanbe hugged Eri tightly and prayed in his heart.
Perhaps God finally opened his eyes, and not long after he finished praying, the screams of the robbers reached his ears through the heavy door panel, and he couldn't help but let go of Eri and lean on the door to listen carefully.
"What's wrong Koichi?" Seeing Koichi's sudden move, Eri couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Maybe we'll be saved, Eri!" Yamabe leaned against the door and listened for a moment before turning back to Eri.
A smile finally appeared on his face, full of hope.
=======================================================================
"It's a lot more honest tonight!"
"Hmph, after beating him for so many days, it's time to be obedient! After all, the police are also people!"
Locking the door, the two robbers put away their guns and sneered.
"It's over tomorrow, let's go, let's go have some supper first, that guy should buy it!"
"Eh, is it okay? I'm going to act tomorrow, aren't you afraid that he'll run away?"
"Don't worry, you can't run! That room has only one window except the door, unless they die!"
"That's right!"
The two of them just said this as they prepared to go downstairs.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a muffled sound and a scream sounded almost at the same time, reaching the ears of the two.
"Hmm, what's going on, it seems to be Shunya's voice?"
"I don't know, let's go down and have a look!"
The two kidnappers glanced at each other, both sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly ran to the room downstairs.
However, as they passed the corner of the staircase, a silver-white shadow suddenly flashed in front of them.
"What the hell—" The robber walking on the right was about to stop his body, but he felt that his calf was hooked by something, and the whole person suddenly lost his balance, screaming an upside-down onion and falling down the stairs.
"Bang!" With a crisp sound, his head made close contact with the floor, and suddenly lost his voice.
"W-" Before the other robber could react to what had happened, his consciousness flew instantly.
In the end, all that remained in his eyes was a white, powerful fist that grew bigger and bigger.
"Bang!" There was another crisp sound, and the man flew out on his back, again without a sound.
"What a majestic punch, it's really worthy of Sakura!"
A figure silently retracted his feet, then looked at his companion with a little admiration.
"That ghostly kick is really worthy of Xia Fan...... Should I say that?"
In the face of her praise, the silver-haired girl showed a helpless wry smile.
The two looked at each other and smiled, high-fived as usual, and continued up the stairs.
Yes, this is not the first time the two of them have dealt with outlaws.
No, it should be said that the first real acquaintance between the two was on an occasion like this.
In this simple rice flower city, campus life is naturally more exciting than other places. Although it is generally good, there are always some shadows that the sun does not shine on, and there are always some vulnerable groups that are bullied.
Campus Baling is like a curse that every school can't escape, happening all the time. And that day, it happened to be seen by the two.
Sakura doesn't need to say that she is well versed in the chivalrous spirit of martial arts, and she is naturally the type to draw a sword to help when she sees injustice. And Xia Fan can be regarded as a jealous and hateful character, after all, her childhood experience made her hate all evils. Therefore, when the two flames of justice burn together, those who hide in the shadows should mourn for themselves.
And if becoming classmates is just a simple acquaintance between the two, that experience can be regarded as the first time the two know each other, and since then they have hit it off and become each other's best friends.
It's just that although it's not the first time that the two have joined hands to fight each other, but in the past, at most some gangsters or robbers who harassed their classmates, if you really want to talk about it, this is the first time to deal with an enemy with a firearm. Fortunately, the cooperation between the two is still so tacit.
Unlike Sakura, who has superhuman talent and will, and practices martial arts day after day, Xia Fan's skills are not great, but she has learned some of the most basic self-defense techniques from her martial arts teacher, even with her excellent motor nerves, at most it can only be regarded as a little better than ordinary girls. However, Xia Fan didn't drag Sakura back once.
There is no other reason, because Xia Fan is good at analysis and thinking. Just as she can accurately plan the trajectory of a bow and arrow, Xia Fan is well aware of the abilities she possesses, and is good at applying them to actual combat. For example, inserting eyes, kicking the crotch, stepping on the toes, and similar to the god just now, and even using a bow and arrow, Xia Fan is very good at playing to his strengths and covering up his weaknesses. So in fact, there are no fewer people who are put down by Xia Fan than those who are put down by Sakura, and most of them are even more miserable......
It's also thanks to Xia Fan that he didn't bring the bow and arrow with him today, otherwise, even if those people have guns, even if they don't help herself, Sakura has no doubt that Xia Fan will be able to brush it all the way! She only needs to hide in the shadows to be able to use the bow and arrow to bring them down one by one!
"Sakura-chan, look, this is the only room on the entire seventh floor that is closed! The kidnapped hostages must be locked up here!"
After going up to the seventh floor, Xia Fan looked around left and right, and immediately noticed the only room that was closed.
"Well, let's go take a look, but be careful, there might be robbers around!"
Compared with Xia Fan, Sakura was more cautious, looking around vigilantly, while following Xia Fan towards the door.
"Bang!"
At this time, a sudden slamming sound on the door couldn't help but startle the two who were nervous.
"Who's there, isn't it? on the other side of the door! I'm not talking about the robbers!"
A man's voice reached the ears of both of them through the thick door panel.
"Sure enough, the hostages are being held here!"
The voice confirmed their suspicions, and the two couldn't help but look at each other and ran towards the door.
"Sure enough, there are people! Please, please let us out! You can come here, it means that you have already cleaned up the robbers, right?"
Hearing a voice different from that of the robbers, Yamanbe suddenly ignited hope and knocked desperately on the door.
"No, it's locked!" Xia Fan couldn't help frowning, "There must be a key on those people just now!"
"Xia Fan, you wait, let me try it! The people inside, please stand back!"
"Huh?" Although the mountain inside didn't know what she was going to do, he still retreated according to her words.
After confirming that there was no one behind the door, Sakura couldn't help but take a deep breath, stepped on one foot, and set up a stance.
"Great Divine Flow: Steel Fist!"
With a low shout, a gust of wind suddenly blew on the top floor of the empty building.
"Boom!"
With a roar, the iron door let out a twisted scream, recessing a large piece and startling the people inside.
However, the lock was not shaken open.
"No...... Isn't my strength enough......
Sakura looked at her right fist, which was trembling slightly from the pain and tremor, and couldn't help but grit her teeth, ready to throw another punch.
"No, don't try Sakura again!" At this time, Xia Fan grabbed her fist first and shook his head, "If you continue to fight, not only will your own hand be injured, but it may also make the lock completely deformed and unable to be opened again!"
"I see. Hearing Xia Fan's words, Sakura couldn't help but put down her fist and nodded seriously, "I'll accompany you to find it." ”
"No, you stay here, I'll go!" Leaving this sentence, Xia Fan rushed down the stairs he had just come up and went straight to the two people who had been knocked unconscious by her and Sakura. After she and Sakura set the rogue in the room on the sixth floor, the two robbers in the back came down from the seventh floor, most likely they locked up the hostages, and they must have the keys on them!
"Key...... Key...... Ah, it's here!
At the moment when Xia Fan finally took the key off the waist of a robber, a sudden strong malice made her shudder. At the moment when she sensed the danger and wanted to turn back, a pair of strong arms had already wrapped around Xia Fan's neck before she could turn around. At the same time, a cold, hard object pressed against her right temple.
"Oh, don't think about struggling, Miss, or your pretty little head will explode a flower!"
The cold and hideous tone, with an offensive strong smell of smoke, sprayed on Xia Fan's face, making her feel a strong sense of fear and nausea. As if he had been licked by a crocodile with his tongue, Xia Fan's body had goosebumps.
"Say, who are you, and how many are there? If you don't say it, you should know what the outcome will be!"
Saying this, the man couldn't help but use his pistol to push Xia Fan's head hard, and the fingers on the trigger were slightly buckled. The clearly audible sound of the machine rubbing made people not doubt that the man would really pull the trigger in the next second.
"I, we ......"
"Let go of that girl!"
Just when Xia Fan's brain was running at 200 times the speed, desperately thinking about how to get out of this predicament, a righteous shout directly interrupted her thinking and fell into a state of confusion. Well, it's not just her who is confused, but also the robber who held her hostage.
"W-What?" the robber couldn't help but follow the prestige, only to see a long-haired figure quickly rush up the stairs.
"Shhhhh
"Bang!" the bullet struck the dark ceiling, splattering a dazzling fire.
"W-uh-h
Before the man's words of astonishment could be spoken, he was squeezed and deformed by a flying kick that came from the air. As if in slow motion, it drags and lengthens, accompanied by a completely distorted face and scattered teeth.
"Bang!" the man flew out with a bang, slamming the back of his head on the stairs and losing consciousness.
"Huh! It's so dangerous! Xia Fan, thank you so much just now!"
Xiao Lan, who fell from the sky, couldn't help but stretch out her hand towards Xia Fan, who was pulled to the ground by the man's power, and said with a smile.
If Xia Fan hadn't grabbed the man's hand before he shot him just now, if he moved upwards, the place where he was punched out might not be the ceiling.
"Where, I still have to thank you for saving your life, Sister Xiaolan!"
Seeing that smile that was so bright that there was no fake or contrived, Xia Fan couldn't help but smile, took her hand and stood up.
"Be careful, Eagle Ya said that there are five people in total, three here, plus one on the sixth floor, there should be one more!"
Xiaolan looked at the three people lying crookedly on the stairs, and couldn't help but say so.
"There's another one already lying downstairs. ”
At this moment, with these words, Takaya and Conan slowly walked up from the bottom of the stairs.
"Oh, you're finally here. Seeing the elder, Xia Fan couldn't help but purse his lips and said with a little pride.
"What do you mean by 'you're finally here'? Are you so proud? How can you say it so easily?" Eagle Arrow put the coin in his hand back in his pocket, surprisingly did not coax Xia Fan as before, but glared at her with a cold expression, "Do you know how dangerous this is, just rush up? What if Xiaolan can't catch up? What if someone shoots directly?"
To be honest, Eagle Arrow was really scared into a cold sweat just now, and the coin was almost thrown out in his hand. Fortunately, Xia Fan's reaction was fast and accurate enough, otherwise, with the strength of a coin, he might not be able to raise the muzzle of the gun by a few points.
"Hmph!" Hearing Eagle Ya's words, Xia Fan, who was still a little surprised, couldn't help but pouted and snorted softly.
"You-"
"Eh, Eagle Arrow, you said there was another person lying downstairs just now, what's going on?"
Sensing that Eagle Ya was really a little angry, Xia Fan was also stubborn, and Xiao Lan, who didn't want their two siblings to quarrel at this moment, could only interrupt them and change the topic.
"It's also a coincidence, just as Conan and I were about to chase you, the fifth kidnapper came back with a bag of takeout......"
Hawkya's mind could vaguely draw on the look of the delivery kidnapper's bewildered face after seeing him and Conan, and the hilarious appearance of burying himself in the takeaway box after being knocked down by his own punch.
"Huh...... This is really ......" Xiaolan couldn't help but be speechless for a while, "So, the kidnappers have all been eliminated by us?"
"I think so. Conan looked at the "corpses" all over the ground and couldn't help but pout.
[Women are so terrible......]
"Now we can call the police. Taka said.
"Hmph, it's okay to call the police, of course, after rescuing the hostages!"
Xia Fan shook the key in his hand demonstratively at him, and then disappeared at the end of the stairs like a gust of wind.
"That's right, let's rescue the policemen first!" said this, and Xiaolan followed.
"Then let's go too!" Xiaolan was gone, and Conan had no reason not to follow, so he left in a hurry.
Of course, Takaya followed them up the stairs. It's just that when he passed by the robber who had kidnapped Xia Fan just now, his right foot "accidentally" stepped heavily on the hand he strangled Xia Fan's neck, and made a crisp "click" sound.
The hapless robber was awakened from his coma, let out a terrible scream, and then fainted again......
====================================================================
The rest of the matter is simple, like a royal movie plot, the police are always late after everything is over, and then the bad guys are caught, the good guys are saved, and everything has a perfect ending.
And the saved Yamabe and Eri were naturally grateful to everyone and kept thanking them. And the biggest hero, a certain stinky ghost. If he hadn't discovered the calculator, if it hadn't been for his perseverance in exploring and searching, things might have ended differently. So sometimes, even Eagle Ya can't help but sincerely admire this good friend.
Belief and persistence, these two qualities are extremely valuable in this materialistic society.
And after everything is over, it is natural to go back to their own homes and find their own mothers. After receiving Officer Twilight's commendation, Conan and Ran hurried home, presumably rushing to feed some of the foolish detectives. I just hope that it's not too late, and that "Sleeping Kogoro" hasn't become "Starving Kogoro" or "Eternal Sleeping......
As for Sakura and Natsu Fan, naturally Hawkya was in charge of sending them home. After all, he brought them out, and he had the obligation to send them home safely.
"It's been a fulfilling day, thank you for taking care of you, brother. At the entrance of the Great Shinto Hall, Sakura bowed to Takaya, and then showed the bright smile that Takaya had seen for the first time, "I'm looking forward to meeting you next time." When the time comes, please be sure to give me advice!"
The girl's bright smile is undoubtedly the best healing agent for the soul, especially with the pleasant "brother".
"Of course, see you next time!" Takagiya smiled and waved at her, and drove away.
"Sakura-chan is beautiful, isn't she?"
"Uh-huh?"
A question suddenly came to his ears, which made someone who was still immersed in the girl's flower-like smile couldn't help but say "En". But the brain that reacted immediately and the substantial murderous aura coming from his side made him stubbornly raise the unfinished "En" to a higher tone, turning it into a "En" as if he hadn't heard it?
I have to say that the reaction is fast and witty. It's just a pity that it doesn't seem to be able to gain the trust of the person next to me.
"I warn you! Don't do anything to Sakura! She's my best friend! I don't want to see her sad! You know?"
Xia Fan in the passenger seat leaned sideways and stared at him with burning eyes, as if he wanted to burn a hole in his face.
"Okay, you've said it I don't know how many times, does your brother and I look like perverts who will attack young women?"
The substantial gaze made Eagle Ya a little uncomfortable, so he could only roll his eyes angrily, and he didn't bother to explain.
"Hmph, haven't you been a little conscious?" Hearing Ying Ya's words, Xia Fan couldn't help but clasp his hands to his chest, puff out his mouth and turn his face to the side, "When you went to tease Sister Xia Jiang, wasn't she only 12 years old?"
"Forehead......" For a while, Eagle Ya had no way to refute anything, so he had to cough vigorously twice, and then forcibly changed the topic, "Speaking of which, do you remember what I told you today?"
"I didn't remember!" Xia Fan snorted heavily, stiffening his head, but he refused to turn back.
"I said you...... Don't be so impulsive next time you encounter something like this, okay? I don't think I need to say more, you yourself should know very well. You must know that not every time you encounter danger, you and Sister Xiaolan and I can catch up with it......"
At this moment, Eagle Arrow couldn't get angry, so he could only helplessly glance at his sister, who was also stubborn and like a donkey.
"Hmph! That's a nice thing to say! In the past five years, you've rushed over to save me when I've been in danger!" However, this sentence didn't know which of Xia Fan's scales it seemed to touch, making her suddenly look like a fried cat, and turned her head to the eagle and grinned, "It's different from when I was a child! I don't need you to save me now! I don't want you to save me anymore!"
"Xia Fan ......"
Looking at Xia Fan, who was frantically biting like a little beast that had been cornered to protect himself, Eagle Ya moved his mouth and was speechless.
He didn't know what Xia Fan had experienced in the past five years, and he didn't know how much damage he had caused to her when he left like that. He only knew that the rift he thought had been slowly repaired was still clearly placed between the two of them......
So what should he do......
"Be careful!"
Just when he was a little distracted, he suddenly heard a terrible scream in his ears.
Turning his head, it was Xia Fan's delicate cheeks. It's just that now this beautiful little face is full of horror.
Takaya couldn't help but turn her head to her right hand and look out of the cab window.
At that moment, time seemed to be stretched out, and everything around him slowed down.
He saw a silver van.
He saw the man in black sitting in the cab.
He saw the masks they were wearing.
He saw—
"Boom!"

This cheat's year-end inspection can be regarded as over......
As the first update in two months, the length of nearly 9,000 words should be interesting enough......
It's been a long time since I've written an article.,All of a sudden, the writing and feeling are a lot worse.,Written and changed all day.,Changed and deleted.,Deleted and written and recycled many times.,The liver is now.,It's about two o'clock in the morning before the liver comes out with a finished draft.,Anyway, I can't hold it and go to sleep.,You're going to just watch it......
Also, I originally thought that I would be able to fly to the city to live a good life this year after I got the certificate last year, but I found that I was still too naïve, and then I found that I wanted to change my destiny, so I could only pick up a career that I had never thought about before - graduate school entrance examination......
