Chapter 47, the speed of life and death (II)

"Where are you going, Butler Aso?"

In the dark night, Maori Kogoro turned slightly sideways, and the moonlight reflected a wise smile on the corner of his mouth.

These words, full of justice and majesty, suddenly shocked a certain small man who wanted to take the opportunity to escape.

This may be the aura of Detective Mori Kogoro, right?

It's so hard to worship - what a fart!

Conan on the side couldn't help but vomit in his heart, and then wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Given so many hints, you finally fucking noticed it, and it was not in vain that Lao Tzu pretended to be stupid and cute for so long!

Looking at Mori Kogoro, who was triumphantly expounding "his own reasoning", Conan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Forget it, uncle's urine, he knew it long ago when he was young, for the sake of his Xiaolan's father, let's bear it!

"I'm right, Butler Aso, or rather, I should call you Mr. Kidnapper!"

Mori Kogoro smiled lightly, and in his usual pretending tone, he made a perfect closing statement for his reasoning.

"Aso, you guy!" After listening to Maori Kogoro's words, President Gu couldn't help but be angry, and suddenly became furious, "Why! Tell me why! Who instructed you to do this!"

As the so-called house thief is difficult to prevent, no matter how much he wants to break his head, he can't imagine that his most trusted housekeeper will actually be the prisoner who kidnapped his daughter!

But having said that, he still didn't believe that this gray-haired old butler would do such a betrayal of himself, presumably, he must have been instructed and even threatened by someone to make him have to do it with a clear conscience!

"No, the old decay didn't suffer from anyone, it's just that I did it alone!"

However, the butler's answer was unexpected, which made him even more angry.

"So, where is the eldest lady now?" asked Mori Kogoro.

"In, in a nearby hotel room......" Facing the detective again, the weak-hearted old butler could only tell the truth.

Hahahaha, as long as my detective Mori Kogoro comes out, no matter how difficult the case is, it will be solved!"

After confirming the truth, Mori Kogoro finally couldn't hold back the smugness in his heart, and happily began to get a little carried away.

And Xiaolan on the side had already covered her eyes and couldn't look at it......

However, at this time, Conan surprisingly did not complain with Xiaolan, but stood in place in a daze, chilling all over.

If Aso's housekeeper was the prisoner, then why was he so surprised when President Gu said that the prisoner called again and said that he wanted a ransom of 300 million yuan?

At that moment, he realized, realized that the case did not end with Mori Kogoro's laughter. On the contrary, behind this kidnapping case, there is a deeper case! Another case, a kidnapping case!

As if to verify Conan's conjecture, just as he was thinking so, a phone call came to the Gu family.

One call, real kidnappers, calling, real, blackmail calls!

"How is it possible, isn't the prisoner already ......" President Gu looked at the old butler on the side with some disbelief.

"Sure enough, you have some other accomplices!" Mori Kogoro couldn't help but pull the old butler's collar.

"No, no, I'm really just one person, trust me!" Aso's butler replied with difficulty.

"Dad, help me!" At this moment, President Gu's mobile phone came from Gu Jingzi's cry for help.

"Akiko, Akiko, please, it's okay with the money, please don't hurt my daughter!"

The young cry for help made President Gu's tears almost come out, and he couldn't help but beg repeatedly.

"President Gu, try to delay as much time as possible and find a way to find out where the kidnappers are!"

Mori Kogoro couldn't help but lean into President Tani's ear and whispered.

Although he seems to be a confused detective now, he was also an elite detective who dealt with countless robber criminals when he was young, and the skill of negotiating with kidnappers has long been engraved in his soul like his criminal instinct.

"Where?"

However, as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate.

As an ordinary person, President Gu does not have such a good psychological quality as Mori Kogoro. In addition, I just heard my daughter's cry for help, and in a state of confusion, I almost instinctively repeated the words of Mao Li, right in front of the ears of the bandits!

"Well, who are you around, is it the police?" the kidnapper couldn't help but immediately change to a vicious tone.

"No, it's not!" President Gu hurriedly covered the earpiece of his mobile phone.

"Daddy, in the school warehouse! You can see a big chimney from the window!"

The child always has the most innocent courage in the world, and after hearing his father's voice, he rekindled his courage to face this vicious gangster.

However, guts belong to guts, and it does not give the young body the strength to actually fight against adults, and it is covered by the gangsters in an instant.

"I'll call again in an hour, either to prepare the money, or, to collect the body!"

Leaving such a fierce sentence, the gangster hung up the phone, leaving everyone looking at each other.

A school with a big chimney in view!

This is the ray of life left by the brave girl! But at the same time, it is also the fuse that ends her life!

Because it is impossible for gangsters to obediently wait for the police to come to the door, they have not much time left!

Conan looked at the map as he searched for his target location at a rapid pace.

With a little girl, the place where the prisoner can run will definitely not be too far, and the search center of gravity should be within a radius of 5 kilometers!

The place where there is a chimney is either a factory or a bathhouse, and there are five schools in the neighborhood where you can see the chimney!

It's important to save people, and time is running out!

Without even thinking about it, Conan jumped on the giant dog named Big Mac and used it as a mount.

And the Big Mac seems to have a spirituality, and the protector is so anxious that he rushes out without saying a word with Conan on his back!

This time, it's time of life and death! Please, you must catch up!

Conan, who was riding a Big Mac, couldn't help but think so.

====================================================================

"Boss, do we need to run in such a hurry?"

"yes, with that mysterious ghost-faced killer and so many gunslingers, can't you really kill him?"

Rice Flower Torch Boulevard. A black sedan was speeding at a speed of one hundred and thirty yards.

In the city, such a speed is already a serious speed, and the whistling street trees around it make people's scalp tingle.

The two younger brothers sitting in the front driver's seat and the passenger seat couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads, glanced at the stinky boss sitting in the back from the rearview mirror, and smiled stiffly.

"You know the! That guy ...... That guy is a demon! If you don't run, if you don't run!"

However, their pretense of light-heartedness did not ease the boss's emotions, but made him even more excited.

It can be seen that the implantation of fear by Eagle Arrow is still very successful.

In Yoshio Okamoto's subconscious, that black eagle shadow had already transcended humans and upgraded to the level of a demon.

No matter how powerful that ghost warrior is, he is just a killer with a demon mask, how can he be a real evil ghost?

Therefore, no matter how highly he looked at and appreciated the ability of the ghost warrior, the moment Eagle Arrow appeared, he still chose to run away without hesitation. There was no way, the fear of the eagle arrow in his heart had already overwhelmed everything.

"But boss, even if those people can't deal with him, at least they can hold him back, right? And we've all driven so far, I think he can't catch up with us at the moment! Besides, he doesn't know where we are?"

"Yes, boss, I believe we have dumped him, we are safe. ”

However, it seems that Yoshio Okamoto is the only one who is dominated by fear, and the two younger brothers are a little unimpressed.

After all, with so many real gunmen out there, no matter how awesome you are, can you still be invulnerable?

In their opinion, even if Eagle Arrow is immortal, it is absolutely impossible for him to catch up with them again.

However, they seem to have forgotten that they are not facing an opponent who can be pushed by common sense.

"Safe fart! Watch ahead! Look ahead! You two stupid pigs!"

However, just as the two people in front of them turned their heads to speak, they saw a look of horror on Yoshio Okamoto's face.

When they turned their heads, they found that at some point, a large black net had opened on the road ahead, and the ropes were still glistening under the reflection of the street lamp. At first glance, it looks like a big black mouth with a sinister grin, showing its glittering sharp teeth towards them!

"Wow!" the little brother who was driving couldn't help but instinctively step on the brakes, and the four tires of the car suddenly let out a sharp scream.

However, even with his quick reaction, the speed of 130 yards caused the car to scratch four black and tragic tire marks on the ground and crash straight into the black net.

"Bang!" is not like hitting the real thing, and the recoil force of the net is not enough to make the car's airbag pop out, so the few people sitting in the car have made intimate internal contact with the car directly. Especially Yoshio Okamoto, who was sitting in the back seat without a seat belt, his shiny head suddenly kissed the cold roof of the car heavily, and a huge swollen bag bulged.

"Ahh

"Boss, are you alright?"

Although the two younger brothers in front also knocked on the windshield, at least the strength of the seat belt was slowed down a lot, except for a little pain, there was no big problem, and I couldn't help but quickly unbuckle the seat belt and look back to check the boss's situation.

"No, he's not going to be fine tonight! not just him, but you!"

Just as they turned around, a cold and hoarse voice suddenly pierced their ears.

Immediately after, the car suddenly shook, and a black figure fell from the sky and landed heavily on the hood of the car.

In the center of the black leather armor, the blue falcon seemed to come to life, revealing its hideous claws to them!

At that moment, the little brother sitting in the passenger seat couldn't help but instinctively take out his pistol and pull the trigger on the figure outside the windshield!

"Bang bang bang!" fired three shots in a row, and the glass flew sideways, and even the person who fired the shot couldn't help but squint his eyes.

However, after three shots, when they were finally able to reopen their eyes, they found that the black figure was gone.

"What about the others, why are they gone?" said the little brother who had just shot him, in shock.

"Could it be that he was shot and fell?" said the man in the driver's seat.

"If that's the case, thenβ€”ah!"

However, just as the guy in the passenger seat was trembling and trying to put down the gun in his hand, a big black hand slammed into the side window, grabbed him by the collar, and then dragged him out of the window!

His figure disappeared into the night in an instant, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he was caught somewhere by the claws of the demon, only the terrible scream still lingered in their ears, haunting their hearts.

"Hell!" the little brother in the driver's seat saw this terrible scene, and suddenly realized that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

He couldn't laugh at the boss's cowardice anymore at the moment, because the black knight had already proven it with facts, and he was really a monster that even so many gunmen and such a mysterious ghost-faced killer couldn't solve!

So, he didn't hesitate to put himself in reverse gear and couldn't wait to get out of this place.

However, the ideal is always beautiful, but the reality is always cruel.

Just as he was about to kick the accelerator down, a pair of big black hands suddenly clasped the upper edge of the windshield. Before he could react to what had happened, the windshield in front of him suddenly shattered completely.

In the midst of his horrified gaze, a pair of pitch-black feet burst through the air and tightly locked his neck.

Immediately afterward, there was a sharp pain in his neck as if it was about to be torn off, which made him scream miserably, followed the fate of the person in front of him, was quickly dragged out, and disappeared into the night sky!

"Help, help!"

Seeing the two little brothers sitting in front of him screaming and disappearing in an instant, Yoshio Okamoto, who was already scared, almost scared out of his urine directly!

He couldn't care about the bulge on his head anymore, and crawled open the door of the back seat of the car, trying to escape from this place.

However, the moment he opened the car door, he suddenly saw a black figure standing outside the door.

It was the figure that appeared in his nightmares every night!

"Hey, I'm meeting again, Mr. Yoshio Okamoto, why don't you even say hello and say goodbye, let me find it......"

The demon looked at him with a sneer. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a sinister smile appeared on him.

At that moment, listening to the sound of his finger bones "clicking", Yoshio Okamoto couldn't help but feel that his mind was blank.

When the fear reached its peak, he rolled his eyes and then fell straight to the ground.

"Damn, I just fainted in fright! It's so useless, isn't it? I've traveled so far, and I still hope to have more fun!"

Seeing Yoshio Okamoto, who fell down with a crisp head, Taka couldn't help but feel speechless for a while.

"But the old man seems to be enjoying you all the way......" Uncle De's voice came from the earphones.

"That's why I didn't have a main course after eating the appetizer, and I felt a lot of pain......

Nima's Lao Tzu has carefully prepared so many plans to torture you, you fucking Lao Tzu jumped directly to the last step, Eagle Arrow felt like he punched the cotton hard, it was really uncomfortable!

"So, are you going to hand them over to the police as usual?" Uncle De couldn't help but ask.

"No, until then, there are more important things to do. ”

The previous scene came to Eagle's mind, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Yes, the bloody lessons from before are still over there, and the interior of the police station is not a righteous and awe-inspiring atmosphere. Although most of the police officers are conscientious in their duties, there are also many police scum or enemy undercover agents.

However, these rats, who have dared to lurk in the law enforcement system, must be extremely cautious in their actions and behaviors, and will definitely not easily leave traces, and it is almost impossible to force them out at once.

Therefore, Eagle Arrow must find another way, that is, find a trustworthy and honest police officer to take over all this!

"Uncle De, what is the result of the file of the female policeman who asked you to help me investigate before?"

Takaya couldn't help but think of the policewoman who had entrusted her with the tape recorder and Kurata's minions.

"According to the results of the investigation, the female police officer named Sato is a good police officer. Whether it is action, a sense of justice and a crime solving rate are also well-known in the search lesson, it is no wonder that a young person can become a police department. Uncle De said in a loud voice while flipping through the information sorted out on the computer, "Moreover, her father was also the police department of the search section, but he died because of an incident 18 years ago, and the prisoner is said to have not been arrested." Maybe it's because of this that this Officer Sato chose to follow in his father's footsteps and become a criminal policeman, right?"

"Is it to avenge the prisoner who killed my father back then?" Taka couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

"Sa, don't think everyone is as dark as you, young master, maybe people just want justice?"

"It's not a conflict, as long as you don't cross the line......" Taka shrugged.

"So, do you want to go to this Officer Sato, and do you want to make sure she's trustworthy?"

"This is just one of them, and the other point is that since you want to investigate the disappearance of evidence, you have to start at the source. I had put the evidence in her hands first, and I had to ask her where it went. ”

"As for whether she is trustworthy or not, I will judge for myself after I have seen her in person......"

Saying this, Takaya couldn't help but grab Yoshio Okamoto, who had collapsed on the ground, and dragged him towards the motorcycle.

The pain of his butt dragging on the ground finally woke up Yoshio Okamoto and made him open his little eyes that were a little confused.

"Hey, I'm ...... What's going on? This, this, what's going on?"

After being stunned for three seconds, Yoshio Okamoto finally figured out his state at the moment.

He was now like a wriggling flesh worm, tied to the back of a black motorcycle.

"Ah, are you awake?" At that moment, the demonic voice reached his ears again.

"Mr. Yoshio Okamoto, I see that you just drove so fast, I must have a certain amount of research on drag racing! This time I will take it as a good deed, let you experience it for free, what is the ultimate speed, I believe, you who also like drag racing, will definitely like it!"

Starting the motorcycle, Takaya couldn't help but turn around and smile kindly at Yoshio Okamoto.

"No, no need, really!" Yoshio Okamoto really wanted to cry out at the moment.

"You're welcome!" Taka smirked, "I'll make you happy!"

"No, no, ah――――――――――――――"

=========================================================================

"From the side, she sees the building as a chimney!"

While correcting the mistakes he made, he also became aware of the hiding places of the prisoners and hostages, which couldn't help but make Conan ecstatic.

After searching five nearby schools to no avail, this is the only possibility left!

The only school that can think of this building as a chimney is Nibashi Junior High School on the west side!

With the idea that a second faster would be less dangerous, Conan couldn't help but grab the collar of the Big Mac and start running again.

However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a roar that was getting closer and closer, and there seemed to be a faint scream mixed with it.

Conan couldn't help but look up and look at the other side of the road, a black motorcycle was speeding closer.

[No, that's it!]

Conan's eyes widened.

A black eye patch, a blue eagle on his chest, and a motorcycle with a unique shape. Everything felt extremely familiar to him.

Yes, the one who was speeding in front of him was the object he had studied all night, the man of the year in Rice Flower City, the black knight!

And in his back seat, the one who was crying all the way was the one who had just slipped away from his eyes before, that Yoshio Okamoto!

At the same time that Conan saw him, Takaya also saw the little boy who was riding on a large dog and galloping towards him.

At that moment, in addition to a little consternation, there was an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

He will never forget the appearance of one of the famous Tokyo Twin Evils, the Grim Reaper elementary school student, for another 30 years! Although he has been mentally prepared for a long time, seeing him appear in front of his eyes in this form still has a dreamlike unreality.

The picture is perfect like a freeze-frame shot, and at the moment of passing by, the eyes of the two are met in mid-air!

At that moment, both of them couldn't help but have a trace of inexplicable feeling in their hearts, as if they had found a fateful opponent.

The Black Knight and the Grim Reaper Schoolboy.

This is the first dramatic encounter between the two dangerous characters of Rice Flower City.
