In Susato Village, Shizuoka Prefecture, Hattori, Kazuha, Conan and Xiaolan were driven by the white-bearded fat old man to stay in a dilapidated building.

The brick and stone building is built in the forest, next to the famous black gold forest in this area, and the pond in the forest, the black gold pond, in the past, many tourists came for the beautiful scenery of the black gold pond at sunrise, this building also prospered as a hotel for a while, but after an accident, it slowly declined, and no more tourists came.

Because Tokugawa Ieyasu lived in seclusion and the castle of Sunpu where he died was in Shizuoka Prefecture, legends about the treasures of Tokugawa have always been very popular, and there are rumors that the treasure is in this black gold forest.

"The morning sun and the sunset reflect the iron bottle, and the gold is 1,000 and 2,000 cylinders", there is such a nursery rhyme in Suli Village a long time ago, 2,000 vats filled with 1,000 gold coins, a total of 2 million gold coins, is simply an incredible huge fortune, so the number of people who hit this treasure is uncountable, but no one has been able to find it.

Sixteen years ago, an excavation team came to the Kurokane Forest in search of Tokugawa treasures, but one of them died in a landslide, leaving rumors of a monster haunt.

This time, the white-bearded and fat old man of Sukuri Village wants to boost the village's popularity through treasure hunting, not only the famous high school detective Hattori in Osaka, but also famous historical research scholars and archaeologists.

Because the budget is not high, I can't afford to hire a detective, so I basically make up the number to come to Hattori, and only provide transportation and food expenses.

As for Hattori, the reason why he agreed to come over was not to hunt for treasure, but because the old village chief mentioned the beautiful scenery of the black gold pond on the phone, saying that it was very suitable for confession.

Bringing Kazuha over for this, as for finding Conan...... In fact, it is to strengthen his courage, and by the way, he also wants to challenge, after all, Conan confessed to Xiaolan as Shinichi Aido before.

It's a pity that Gao Cheng can't be contacted.

That emotional idiot is even more outrageous than Kudo, and he directly soaked in the daughter of the Suzuki family, and he didn't know when he confessed, and he succeeded in getting off the list for some reason.

Although I don't know the situation very well, that guy still lives with little Lori every day.

In the hotel restaurant, Hattori took a sip of tea after the meal, and thought of Gao Cheng with black eyebrows.

There is no chef in the hotel, it is the old village chief who bought the ingredients and prepared them himself, and everyone ate with their mouths full of oil and their stomachs were supported.

"Eat enough, eat enough!"

He Ye exhaled with satisfaction, looked at the village chief who came back with a bucket of rice, and said gratefully.

"The hot pot is so delicious, thank you village chief!"

"Wherever you like," the village chief smiled and added rice to the hot pot, "and finally added the rice and poured a circle of beaten fried eggs." ”

"I know," Ye Queyue helped, "stir it with chopsticks, and the hodgepodge is complete!" ”

"Huh?" Xiaolan was surprised, "Do you still want to stir?" If you close the lid directly, the eggs will be softer......"

"No, no, if you stir it, the eggs will be more flavorful and tastier."

"Really?"

Hattori held his chin absentmindedly, ignoring the Kazuha two, who were discussing the cooking, and turned to a half-race brother next to him and asked, "And then?" Can you tell us more about the yokai story you just mentioned? ”

"Well, of course."

The little brother has curly hair and is a 22-year-old freelance writer looking for yokai legends all over Japan, Hattori took the initiative to ask and said with a smile.

"There was a foreigner in that excavation team who could only speak a few words of Japanese, named Charuru. Ebel, it's him, he suffered a landslide in the cave, and he was still alive when the rest of the team arrived at the scene.

The teammate saw that he was crushed under the rock, struggling to say something, so he asked him if he had found something, but the foreigner was speechless, and finally took his teammate's pen and paper and wrote down 3 English letters, and his teammates were stupid when they checked it with the searchlight of the helmet.

Because it says nue, that is, the eagle, the legendary monster! ”

"Hawk?"

The atmosphere at the table suddenly froze, and Ye and Xiaolan also tensed up, and they didn't care about arguing about the cuisine.

"That's right," the half-breed brother deliberately put on a frightening expression, "It's an ancient monster with an ape head, a raccoon body, tiger limbs, and a snake tail, which often appears with black smoke and makes terrible noises, and will bring disaster to the world, the eagle!" ”

"Hey," Hattori frowned, "are you trying to say that the monster is in the hole?" ”

"That's all you can think about, isn't it?" The half-breed brother smiled excitedly, "That's why I came here, so that the world knows that the monster that drove the excavation team into the abyss of terror is real......"

"Smack!"

A fat aunt wearing glasses suddenly got up and slapped the little brother, and before the little brother got angry, she accused: "Don't gloat about someone else's death!" The rare hodgepodge of porridge has been ruined by you! ”

"But," said the balding bearded old man next to him, who was also wearing glasses, and looked like an aunt, "you wrote something similar, right?" ”

"In other words, a writer who writes this kind of thing is qualified to say what he just said, using a strange expression to describe the scene of being devoured by a monster and dying?" The echo was a bearded and long-faced old man sitting opposite his aunt, 55 years old, with a bowling-like head shape and small eyes and a long nose.

This person is the only historical research scholar on the scene, Dye Ji Kangke, and the bearded old man in front of him is the archaeologist Danzawa Michigui, 62 years old, the aunt named Masuko Envoy Painting, 46 years old, is famous for writing about monsters.

Seeing this, the old village chief hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, okay, everyone calm down, sleep well at night, and go to the cave at the excavation site early tomorrow morning." ”

"Buzz ——!"

Before the village chief could speak, there were suddenly strange noises around the villa, which kept echoing, as if something was wandering nearby, making people's hearts tremble.

"Yes, it's the call of the owl?!"

"Does it really exist? It's in that forest......"

Everyone, including Hattori and Conan, couldn't help but look at the black gold forest in the night, and an old golden retriever dog tied to the side also seemed to be stimulated, constantly pulling the leash and barking, as if trying to break free and escape.

……

"I was wrong."

In the Black Gold Forest, Gao Cheng failed to start the engine after several fires, and sat paralyzed in the driver's seat without love.

Starting from taking the wrong road, the more I walked, the more wrong I became, not only could I not go back, but I also completely lost my way, and I couldn't leave this mountainous area for half a day.

It's already dark outside, too.

I knew that I would stay in the temple for one night, and tomorrow I would find a monk to lead the way.

"What should I do?" Gao Cheng glanced at the expressionless Xiao Wai next to him, "The car is broken, why don't you stay in the car for the night first?" ”

Xiao Ai raised her eyebrows and continued to stare at Gao Cheng expressionlessly.

How could she trust this guy? It's not just the car that's running out......

"Well, then I'll see if there's anyone around."

Gao Cheng got out of the car and looked at the surrounding forest, and suddenly found a firelight in the distance, and there was a strange sound faintly.

"There seems to be someone over there."

“……”

Xiao Ai looked at Gao Cheng's eyelids beating outside the car.

"I have a bad feeling."
