Chapter 43: Master of the Pistol Realm
Conan was asking very seriously.
However, Kaede Yuan still felt that there was a hint of yin and yang in his words.
It is obviously impossible to call the police with just a few footprints, not to mention that this is still the world of Kexue.
"Conan, Kaedehara! Come over and help find it together! β
"If you don't come again, the treasure will be gone! Eel rice too! β
The voices of the elementary school students came at the right time, and Conan reluctantly replied, "Got it! Come right now! β
Having said that, Conan's feet did not move at all.
Fortunately, the elementary school students are in high spirits at this time, and they don't have to pull them over now.
"So, this man is looking for something in the house?" After Conan finished giving a perfunctory lecture to the elementary school students, Kaedehara continued.
"Well," Conan said, carefully observing the footprints on the ground, "these footprints are in the same direction as the Doctor's footprints... By the way, Doctor, did you hide the treasure in that room over there? β
"How do you know!" Dr. Asasa was surprised.
"Footprints, I just said that," Conan struck the doctor unceremoniously, "and the strange text at my feet that seems to have been carved on purpose will tell you what it means at a glance." β
"Damn," Dr. Asa thought his puzzle would make Conan think for a while, after all, he didn't say anything after seeing it last time, "I thought about it for days!" β
"Let's go," Kaedehara interrupted the conversation between the two of them that had gone a little off, and took the lead in taking a step, "Let's go over and have a look." β
"Huh?"
"Don't you understand, Doctor," Conan said, as he followed, "that man must have seen the hint you left behind, Doctor, and went to look for what you had hidden." β
And that's exactly what Conan thought.
Dr. Asa simply hid the treasure chest under the bed in one of the rooms, and when Conan entered, he saw Kaedehara dragging the box out.
Then Kaedehara opened the box directly.
Conan and Kaedehara's eyes condensed slightly, and Dr. Asasa's eyes widened.
"How so!"
Dr. Asa said bitterly.
The Doctor's eyes caught him on his carefully prepared toys, but they were all cut to pieces by knives, and there was a sharp dagger stuck in the top.
Obviously, the other party did follow the hint left by Dr. Asasa to find the treasure chest, but after seeing that it was only a toy, he destroyed Dr. Asasa's collection in a fit of rage.
There was obviously no need to show such a scene to the children, so Kaedehara simply closed the lid and pushed the treasure chest back.
At this time, even Dr. Asasa was hesitant to call the police.
But at this moment, Kaedehara heard a faint movement outside the house.
Someone's coming.
Kaedehara reminded Conan and the doctor.
When the man peeked in against the window, even Dr. Asasa, who was holding his breath and listening carefully, noticed that the other person might not be good.
After walking to a place where they would not be seen from the outside and discussing softly, Dr. Asasa was sent out to take the trio on a "treasure hunt" to prevent them from bumping into people outside.
It just so happened that Ayumi and the others also discovered those strange patterns that Kaedehara had discovered before.
Dr. Asa and the children try to solve the puzzle together, and Conan and Kaedehara continue to discuss how to deal with the man outside.
Conan guessed that it was the one who destroyed the toy.
Since the other party has been sneaking around outside, and may be carrying knives, friendly communication is obviously impossible.
Then it can only be a "friendly" exchange.
There was only one person on the other side, and the situation was similar to that of the previous haunted house expedition, and the two quickly decided to follow the strategy of the previous time.
β¦β¦
Gently flipping out of the window, then clutching the edge of the window to make the sound of landing softer, Kaedehara came outside.
The villa was surrounded by trees, weeds grew on the ground nearby, and some bent marks proved that the man had just stayed here for a while.
Kaedehara quickly circled a few meters behind the other party.
It was a middle-aged man in a brown coat with messy hair. He was sneaking around the window near the main entrance at the moment.
Now fly directly at the stone at your feet, obviously you can directly subdue the other party, but I don't know how it will be judged in the end.
So Kaedehara decided to speak according to the original plan: "Uncle, what are you doing here?" β
The voice from behind clearly startled the other party.
The middle-aged man subconsciously turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was just a child.
Since it had been just voyeurism, he wasn't sure if he had seen the child just now, so he thought the child might have been outside the house.
Thinking of this, the man squeezed out a frightening smile: "I'm just curious about how there is a villa here, come and have a look," the man said as he looked around Fengyuan, "Little friend, are you here alone?" β
Kaedehara nodded.
The man tentatively approached Kaedehara.
He wanted to subdue himself. Kaedehara realized this immediately.
So Feng Yuan didn't bother to continue to use a child's tone, so he said directly: "Are you going to go in and find something?" β
The man was stunned for a moment.
"You saw the hint in the house and thought it was what you were looking for, so you followed the clue to find the box."
"You see that it's not what you want, and you destroy it all and leave. You didn't give up, though. So you come back again and want to keep looking. Am I right? β
The smile on the man's face was gone.
It made him look a little more pleasing to the eye.
"Yes, that's right. What a clever little ghost. The man said, taking out a pistol from his bosom and aiming it at Kaedehara, "Since you are so smart, then you must understand that you have to stand still nowβdo you know what your uncle is holding in his hand?" β
He took out his gun, but the movement of the gun was too loud. He was talking outside, and there was no response inside the house, so he still hoped to get rid of the imp quietly.
So he said as he slowly walked towards Kaedehara.
Kaedehara looked curiously at the gun in the other party's hand.
Guns are not rampant in the world of Kexue, but they are by no means uncommon.
However, although Kaedehara had touched the gun countless times in Hawaii in his memory, it was the first time he had seen this thing in reality.
But at this moment, he even felt a little eager to try.
What Xiaolan can do, he can do.
"Of course I do, pistols." Kaedehara said.
The man on the other side paused, a little surprised by Kaedehara's calm tone.
"You know what? The velocity of a rifle bullet is about 1,000 meters per second. By comparison, the pistol bullet velocity is only about one-third, which isβ"
Kaedehara paused.
"It's only 350 meters per second."
Bang β
A dull voice came.
