Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 693 It’s dawn



Chapter 693 It’s dawn

【Heading towards the treasure! 】

"Go, go, go!"

Everyone rushed happily towards the cabin on the other side.

"Sure enough, no one is there."

The brave man pushed open the door and scanned the scene inside the house with a strong flashlight.

[There is no dog either, but...]

"Wow - what a great place."

Under the illumination of a strong flashlight, the entire house was in full view.

There was a specially made magic carpet fixed to the ground with wooden pegs, and piles of books marked as "dark magic" were piled on the floor and the table.

Yun Xianhe looked at the whole wall of books and suddenly laughed out loud:

"This is so cool. It seems the murderer has a very young heart."

[Is there anything true in this? ]

Hearing this, Yun Xianhe replaced the flashlight in his hand with a lantern and placed it on the table.

After putting on his gloves, he casually picked up a book from the bookshelf and said as he flipped through the book:

"How is that possible? Even if there is a real one, they can't get the real material, right?"

[That's true. What do you think they would use instead of dragon blood?]

"It's probably a snake."

【What about the Phoenix feathers? 】

"Hmm - maybe tits or something?"

[The blood of the cursed unicorn can't be mixed with mercury, right? ]

"Hahahaha! It's not impossible!"

Everyone was talking and laughing until Yun Xianhe turned to a page with a magic circle marked "Summoning".

The smile on the hero's face, who had been a dark wizard in several worlds, froze.

113 in the system space silently took out his glasses.

"……real or fake?"

[…Big Brother, can’t you tell it at a glance? ]

"No, I just don't believe it. Even though it's just a torn page..."

But is it really good for this thing to spread here? !

The book in my hand, which I thought was just a fabricated book, seemed a little hot at that moment.

"…It's not a big problem. First of all, it's not complete, and the materials are hard to come by. Ah… So it's this particularly troublesome and strict summoning array. It's okay then."

Not to mention the junior black magician.

Even high-level ones may not be able to be summoned.

The brave man who discovered this felt relieved, and simply found a comfortable corner to sit down and began to watch with relish.

[Big brother, have you solved the case? ]

"Shh, don't make a noise. I'm trying to figure out the murderer's psychology through his daily preferences."

【Oh. 】

One dare to say, the other dare to believe.

Return to the Inufushi family's house.

The two detectives who temporarily determined that Yun Xianhe did not intend to commit suicide returned to the previous room with a lot of doubts.

Then they successfully got the 'bad news' from their respective girlfriends.

"Xianhe is missing?!"

"Well, we searched the entire Inufushi family and couldn't find him."

When Xiaolan said this, her face was full of worry.

He Ye, who was standing aside, looked at the dark courtyard and said with some concern:

"Could it be that Xian He just helped us block the demon dog's attack and was retaliated by the other party..."

“Eh——?! No, no way?!”

Looking at the two people who scared him badly, Conan twitched his lips.

He comforted:

"Maybe Brother Xianhe found some clues and was too focused, so he didn't hear you calling him."

"can you?"

"what……"

A question from Xiaolan's soul.

Conan was a little unsure for a moment.

After all, the other party is someone who will definitely respond as long as you call him, there is no such thing as being too obsessed and not responding.

Hattori on the side scratched his cheek and said uncertainly:

"Should, right?"

"Really? Xianhe is not like you, Heiji. Once you solve a case, you will completely ignore the things around you."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

That's true...

The two detectives, who were completely in agreement on this matter, smiled guiltily.

Conan walked out first:

"I'll go look outside."

"I'll go as well."

"Hey, you two, don't leave us here!"

In the corridor, Inufushi Yukihime, who was originally planning to come over to call them for dinner, looked at the four people and blinked in confusion:

"Um, dinner is ready."

"Ah, sorry, we need to look for our friends now. Miss Yuki, have you seen the white-haired boy who came with us?"

"Is that Mr. Medical Examiner? I remember seeing him walking towards the other end of the corridor not long ago."

The four of them looked in the direction of each other's fingers.

Seeing that the direction was exactly the area where the demon dog had appeared before, the two girls huddled together in fear.

After thanking Yukihime, Hattori quickened his pace to catch up with Conan.

"Hey, Heiji!"

"If you're scared, just stay here. We'll be back soon."

"Sister Xiaolan, you can take this opportunity to look around the house. Maybe Brother Xianhe is hiding somewhere crying."

When Xiaolan and Kazuha heard Conan's words, they looked scowling.

Xiaolan asked uncertainly:

"Just now, Conan said that Xianhe-kun might be crying, right?"

"is that a lie……"

·

In the courtyard, the burn marks on the grass were very obvious.

Conan shone the flashlight around and finally found the note on the half-open door.

"'I'm going to look for the demon dog. I'll be back soon.'..."

Conan, who had read the words on the paper, looked at the Q-version portrait drawn in the lower right corner with half-moon eyes and complained quietly:

"That guy... the fever should be gone, right?"

"Hey, Gong, Conan, I remember Xiaolan and the others said that Xianhe scared off the demon dog, right?"

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"There is only a row of broken footprints on the grass, and there is no sign of running in the opposite direction. Moreover, there are only footprints of Xianhe going out alone."

After hearing what the other party said, Conan put the note paper and paper cutter into his pocket, and smiled and looked at the other side of the wall of the Inufushi family's house with the other party.

Or rather, the garages and warehouses there.

"That means the demon dog is still in this house."

"Do you want to go find it now?"

"Of course."

"What about that fellow Xianhe?"

The steps that were about to be taken stopped in an instant.

The two detectives looked at each other at the same time, then stretched out their hands:

"Rock, scissors, paper." x2

Scissors win over paper.

Hattori looked at Conan with a smile, then reached out and rubbed his head twice:

"I'm so sorry, Conan—"

"Hey--Brother Heiji, are you really going to let a little kid like me go into the woods alone? At this late hour?"

As if in response to the little detective, the rustling sound of leaves in the wind came from the woods in the distance.

The noise was so loud that it was even a little scary.

Hattori, who was still laughing, froze in his place, then looked at Conan with half-moon eyes:

"You are really cunning."

"Hehe - this is called making good use of one's own conditions."

"Really? Are you okay with me going into the woods alone?"

"What should I do?"

"Together?"

But what if we let the demon dogs escape and can't catch them in the act?

The two detectives were entangled.

At this time, daybreak came. (?)

The two people who were enveloped by the strong light turned around in a daze for a moment, and happened to meet the eyes of the brave man who came out of the woods.

Yun Xianhe casually brushed off the leaves on his shoulders and tilted his head in confusion:

"What are you two doing here?"

"..." x2
