Chapter 217: Is There a Ghost?
In the Forest, a group of Children were happily picking up firewood.
In front of the Limestone Cave, the tall Little Black, wrapped in a Black Cloak, walked step by step. He stopped for a moment at the Cave Entrance, his Gaze sweeping over the Text on the Stone at the Cave Entrance, before continuing inside.
"Stepping onto the Road leading to the Dragon, the Light of ultimate bliss will shine upon you..."
The low Sound softly murmured, quickly dissipating with the Wind.
Indeed, he Still wasn't good at Mystery Solving...
"Hmm?" Behind Tree not far away, Mitsuhiko, who was bending down picking up firewood, straightened up. He used his free Left Hand to rub his Eyes, his Face full of Doubt. "Just Now... did someone go in there?"
Chi Feichei was Unaware that he had transformed into Little Black once. The Cloak Hat Brim was pulled very low. He put on Black Gloves, took out a No-Face Mask and put it on. "Hassashi, I'll leave the rest to you."
On this Mask, there were Eyes, But there were no holes left. In Other Words, he couldn't See.
In this Pitch Black Limestone Cave, not being able to See was actually good. Having Hassashi was enough.
Hassashi hid under the Cloak, using Heat Vision to search the Surrounding Area. By the Way, he gave directions. "Okay, it's time for my Action..." "Master, found it! Lower Head! Hey, Okay, almost hit the Stone Above... Okay, Turn Right, Careful of your feet, Okay, Careful of your Head, walk Forward, our Line of Sight is clear, next we don't need to be Careful of our Heads," "Attention! To the right ten steps Front, there is a Stone, let's go around it..."
Chi Feichei walked while listening to the commands: "..."
Hassashi's speaking speed, this speaking Pace...
How does it Feel like a Game Live Broadcast he watched in his previous life?
Hassashi's speaking speed was extremely Fast and very inciting. "Oh! They Actually took out Flashlights! Watch us go around the Light Source and give them a head-on Attack!... Dodge two steps to the right, Fast! Step Forward Again! Go!"
Inside the Limestone Cave, a long-haired man led the way inside. A big guy and a mushroom-haired man were carrying a Corpse.
The mushroom-haired man was biting a Flashlight in his Mouth, which could barely illuminate A Bit of the Road Surface.
As soon as Hassashi's voice fell, Chi Feichei moved, quickly Dodging two steps to the right, and went forward Again.
His Footsteps were almost silent, Dodging away from the range illuminated by the Light Source. Only the Cloak brought up a gust of Wind, making a slight Sound.
"That..." The big guy's Action paused for A Bit. "Just Now... did something go past?"
"What?" The mushroom-haired man, biting the Flashlight, Turned Head to Look at the Surrounding Area's Environment.
Hassashi's speaking speed was extremely Fast. "Master! Squat, move right, Step Forward, squat, there's a Stone on the right, squat, Fast! Okay, passed it, come out..."
Chi Feichei's Reaction was Fast, his Action was Agile, and he could completely keep up with Hassashi's speaking speed.
The mushroom-haired man, biting the Flashlight, Turned Head left and right and Looked for a long time, but was stunned and didn't See a single Figure.
"Okay, perfect!" Hassashi was excited.
Chi Feichei: "..."
He Understood Why Hassashi's Game was played so well...
Last Time in the Blue Castle, Hassashi Probably also treated it as a maze Game of Dodging the Boss to play...
Cough, although he Also felt it was Fun...
The big guy and the mushroom-haired man Already stopped their Footsteps.
"Hey," the big guy said, "Did you Feel it?"
"Although we didn't See anyone," the mushroom-haired man replied, "But Seemingly there was Wind circling around us..."
"Alright," the long-haired man shouted, "Maybe the Wind in this Limestone Cave is A Bit Weird. Quickly Throw the Corpse inside!"
Inside the Limestone Cave, there was faintly the Sound of Children coming from within.
"...They wouldn't have found the Treasure one step ahead of us, right?..."
"How can that be..."
"Crap, the Children are here!" Hassashi said rapidly. "Go! Goal number 1, one body length to the left, three steps, we must first Subdue the person, Otherwise the Children will be in Danger! Directly facing, Knife Hand horizontal... Attack!"
Chi Feichei silently Cooperated, flashed forward, and chopped with a Knife Hand.
At the same time, Genta Also ran past the Corner with footstep sounds. "Hey!"
Under the Light of the Flashlight, the Corpse being carried had its Eyes wide open. On its Forehead, a Bullet Hole Still had Blood Stains.
"Ah!" Genta ran out scrambling, his cry just happening to cover up the Sound of the long-haired man falling to the Ground.
The two people carrying the Corpse didn't Discover their Companion falling to the Ground. Seeing that their Action of abandoning the Corpse was Seen by the Child, they Directly Left the Corpse and chased after him.
The mushroom-haired man even took out the Gun at his Waist.
"Master, chase, Step Forward, Step Forward," Hassashi said. "Oh dear, crap, the mushroom-haired man took out a Gun, Master, Whether or Not we should attract a wave of fire? Yes Raise Right Hand, No Raise Left Hand!"
Chi Feichei chased after them while silently Raised his Right Hand.
Hassashi: "OK! Clench your fist, Accelerate and continue forward, cut in from the front right, Hammer him!"
...
After the Corner, Genta Already ran to in front of Conan.
"Genta, What's Wrong?" Conan asked anxiously.
"Corpse, Corpse!" Genta's Face was full of panic. Footsteps from Behind Already chased over.
The mushroom-haired man, holding the Pistol, used the fact that after turning out of the Passage, the Field of Vision was A Bit brighter, and aimed at A Group of Children. "Damn it!"
The big guy who Received the Flashlight for Lighting Followed and Stepped Forward, and was just Behind the mushroom-haired man.
Conan Also sharply Saw the Pistol, and pounced and pushed down the other three Children. "Quickly lie down..."
The Words were not finished Saying when Suddenly, between the mushroom-haired man and the big guy, a Black Shadow cut in and flashed past under the Flashlight's Beam of Light.
Before they could See clearly What Thing had flashed past, the mushroom-haired man Seemingly suffered a heavy blow to his Back, and fell forward. The Gun in his Hand Also had its Trigger pulled, and Bang, one shot hit the Stone Pillar hanging Above.
Immediately after, the Pistol flew out of his Hand and slid to Beside Conan, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi.
"What Thing?" The big guy panicked. He switched to holding the Flashlight with his Left Hand, took out his own Pistol, shone the Flashlight on his Companion for A Bit, and started turning and searching. "Come out!"
Hassashi: "Left, Left, squat, Right... Okay! Hey! The one who fell to the ground Actually Still Can crawl up, let's go over and Hammer him unconscious! Three steps beside your feet..."
After shining the Light around in a Circle Again, the big guy Still didn't Discover What Thing. Suddenly, he heard a Scream of 'Ah!' from his Companion Behind him, and quickly Turned Around Again.
Chi Feichei accidentally stepped on the mushroom-haired man. As For where he stepped, he Don't Know. He bent down and delivered a heavy blow to his neck, listening to Hassashi's command and quickly Dodging away.
The Flashlight's Light shone on empty space Again, But the mushroom-haired man who had fallen to the ground Already fainted, his fate was uncertain.
Fear spread in the big guy's Heart...
He only just remembered, after such a long time, Where was his long-haired man Companion?
On the other side, the Junior Detective League were all stunned.
"That..." Genta shrank A Bit. "Is there... is there a Ghost?"
Ayumi was afraid and hid Behind the Stone. "So scary..."
"No, it Should be..." Conan's Face was calm. He just wanted to analyze it scientifically when Suddenly he heard a Bang Sound, Felt a numbness in his Shoulder, and Reached Out and touched it.
Warm, bright Red...
Bang! Bang! Bang!...
The big guy whose Heart was full of Fear started shooting randomly in the Surrounding Area, holding the Flashlight and kept turning.
"Fast! Dodge!" Conan pressed down on the Injury on his Shoulder, ran Behind the Stone. On his Face, besides Tension, there was Also a trace of confusion.
The Other Party collapsed and shot randomly. Why did the first shot hit him so accurately, hey?!
As Long As Hassashi could report the Muzzle's Direction, Chi Feichei could quickly Dodge the Bullet. Moreover, under Hassashi's command, he always maintained a considerable distance from the Direction the Muzzle was facing.
But, The Other Party turned Too Fast. He circled the outer Circle, and Actually could only barely Dodge the Muzzle. For a moment, he had no Opportunity to approach and Take Action.
Behind the Stone, several pairs of Eyes were quietly Staring at the big guy who was 'going crazy by himself'.
Click...
The Bullet in the Gun ran out.
Hassashi: "...Attack! Job done!"
The big guy Also fell to the ground with him. The Flashlight fell onto the Ground, rolled two Circles, pulling out a long, slanted Beam of Light on the uneven Ground.
The Surrounding Area returned to Darkness Again. Conan Reached Out and pressed down on the bleeding Wound, not daring to sigh in relief. He wasn't sure Whether that Black Shadow was a Good Person or a Bad Person.
Chi Feichei gave the big guy another blow, picked up the Gun and Flashlight from the Ground, and walked towards Behind the Stone.
He Also was Speechless.
This Group of Children...
Saw that there were Criminals here and they were fighting, instead of quickly Running Away, they stayed to watch What Excitement?
Especially Conan, According to What Hassashi Said, after Just Now pouncing and pushing down the other Children, this Kid just continued to stand up and Staring at his side with wide Eyes. It Seemed he Also intended to do some Reasoning...
Has a Problem!
Behind the Stone, several pairs of Eyes were quietly Staring at the Flashlight's Beam of Light shining over. They were pricked by the Light A Bit and quickly Raised Hand to block in front of their Eyes.
Conan blocked in Front of the three Children, and Also used his Hand to block A Bit, feeling relieved.
The Other Party didn't Intervene against them. It Seemed they would be fine for the moment.
Below the Line of Sight, the corner of a Black Robe swayed over silently.
Immediately after, the Flashlight was placed in Ayumi's Hand. A low, hoarse Sound said, "Take this."
"Uh..." Ayumi blankly Received the Flashlight. Only then Did she Discover large Blood Stains on Conan's body. "Conan! You, you're Injured?"
"Ah!" Genta's Face was full of Fear. "You're bleeding a lot of Blood!"
Conan chuckled in his Heart. You only just Discovered, huh...
The next second, he was picked up.
"Follow," Chi Feichei said, holding Conan and walking outside. "I'll send you out first."
The three Children quickly stood up. Under the Flashlight's Beam of Light, they Followed that Figure whose Whole Body was Enveloped in a Black Robe.
Conan Pondering in his mind, It Seemed he was a Good Person, But Why this getup?
Uh, Before this...
"Can... can you change Posture?" Conan, who was being carried in a Princess carry, awkwardly Protested.
Chi Feichei Originally intended to give a Cold laugh.
Awkward? Ashamed? This is to teach you Kid a lesson!
But on second thought, Conan had heard his Cold laugh. Although the Sound had changed, But it's hard to guarantee he wouldn't recognize it. He simply remained Silent.
Walking out of the Limestone Cave, Bright Light immediately shone on A Group of People.
Ayumi looked up at that Black Shadow, Blinked her Eyes. For a Moment, she had the Feeling of Seeing a Hero. Immediately, she came back to her senses. "Conan, are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Conan said. "It Should be an Injury to my Shoulder..." Only then did he come back to his senses from the awkwardness. He Felt Pain, frowned and relaxed A Bit. "Just bled A Bit of Blood, I'm fine!"
"Where are your Guardians?" Chi Feichei pretended not to know the few Kids.
"Over There!" Ayumi quickly ran towards the Campsite, even forgetting to Leave the Flashlight.
Mitsuhiko Also chased over. "We Came Over for Camping!"
"Oh no, Doctor," Genta Also Followed and ran. "Conan is Injured!"
Chi Feichei stopped. Originally, he wanted to Say if it wasn't far, they could go by Oneself. Looking at this, Whether they Still wanted him to Help send the people over?
Noticed The Other Party stopped, Conan Doubtfully Turned Head to Look at Chi Feichei, and was stunned for a moment.
Under the Light, he could only See a white Mask even when looking up.
The Mask painted white, with Black Eyes dotted with oval Points. Purple Lines were painted Above and Below the Eyes. The overall Expression was blank.
"The Place of the Eyes on your Mask..."
Chi Feichei was Silent for A Bit, put Conan down, Turned Around and went back into the Limestone Cave. A low Sound said, "If you Still Can walk, go by Oneself."
At this time, Still thinking of Asking him about the Mask Matter. Has a Problem.
"Hey..." Conan couldn't stop him in time, Watching The Other Party Turn Around and go in.
Did he Say the wrong Words?
But he really didn't See that the Eye part of the Mask had holes left, huh? Can't I Ask A Bit...?
