A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 149

"Have you seen Yuantai?"

"Hey, wasn't he still here just now, why did he disappear in a blink of an eye?"

Stop picking mushrooms, everyone tried to call Yuantai's name loudly, but no one responded.

"Look here quickly."

Hearing Ayumi's call, everyone hurriedly gathered around. There was a footprint left on both sides of the barbed wire, and Conan tried to make a gesture with his hand.

"It should be right. These are Yuantai's footprints. I think he crawled across the barbed wire to pick mushrooms."

"The exhortation just now was really in vain, this child is as skinny as ever."

Looking at the not-so-small forest in front of him, Noah felt a little helpless, he had to rely on himself.

"Just wait here. I'll go in and look for him. I haven't gone far."

"I am coming too!"

"I am coming too!"

...Looking at the few children who signed up enthusiastically, Noah wished to punch them one by one, knock them out and send them back to the hotel. Isn't this more difficult.

"No, you will distract my attention if you go, who knows if there will be any danger inside, doctor, keep an eye on them, I will be back in a while."

No longer arguing with a few little ghosts, the longer the delay, the more likely Yuantai will be in danger.

Watching Noah gradually disappear into the forest, Conan quickly climbed up the barbed wire fence, obviously wanting to go in with Noah on his back.

"Conan, you want to act alone again, have you forgotten the purpose of our boy detective team?"

... Conan, who was not yet ready to climb, saw two more figures on both sides of him, and of course understood what they meant.

Scratching his head worriedly, he didn't know how to persuade the two companions to leave.

"I think it's better for the rest of us to go find Yuantai and let the doctor stay where he is and wait. Maybe Yuantai will come back by himself in a while."

"No, it's too dangerous for you children to go deep in the forest. Didn't you hear what Noah said just now?"

The doctor refuted this proposal. As Noah said, there are too many dangerous factors in the forest. If you really encounter it, no one will hear you calling for help here.

"It's okay, doctor, didn't the service staff say that as long as you don't cross the second barbed wire, you will be absolutely fine."

"But……"

"Come on, do what Huiyuan said, Doctor, stand where you are, and we'll be back in a while."

Before the doctor finished speaking, Conan quickly climbed up the barbed wire fence, and quickly climbed to the opposite side. The rest of them followed Conan's example and also climbed to the opposite side, standing across the barbed wire fence from the doctor.

Seeing the children disappearing into the forest, the doctor was a little relieved and wanted to climb over, but just as he climbed onto the barbed wire, he felt the whole barbed wire trembling, and jumped off again hastily.

... Forget it, I believe that the children will be safe and sound, I just wait for them here.

At this time, Yuantai was happily picking the matsutake mushrooms in front of him, sighing secretly that he had come to the right place, picking so many matsutake mushrooms would definitely be appreciated by everyone.

Yuan Tai was actually not very courageous, and he didn't dare to go deep into the forest, but picked near the edge of the first barbed wire.

It may be because very few people came in to pick mushrooms. Not long after, Yuan Tai easily picked a bunch of matsutake mushrooms and held them in his arms.

Not daring to stay for a long time, following the memory of when he came, Yuan Tai carefully groped and returned to the place where he jumped in just now.

He ran into Noah who was looking for him head-on, and the moment he saw Yuantai, Noah punched him without saying a word.

"pain!"

"You still know it hurts, so do you know how worried we were about you just now? We didn't obey orders."

"I also want to pick more matsutake mushrooms for everyone, sorry."

The correct attitude made Noah have the heart to reprimand him, alas, he is still a child, so it is normal for him to play a lot.

"When you leave next time, you must inform us, do you understand?"

"alright, I got it."

Leading Yuantai, he went back the same way, and when he got to the position before he came, Noah knew what it means to flock together and divide things into groups.

"These brats are really too brave. It seems that the review is still too little. It seems that there is work to do tonight."

"The few of them are also kind. They ventured in because they were worried that you would be in danger. Don't be angry."

The doctor kept comforting Noah, after all, he was responsible for not keeping the child under control.

"Okay, I won't go there anymore, just continue looking for them inside, Yuantai, you go with me."

It's not that Noah didn't want to put Yuantai outside, but he was afraid that after he brought him back, this little fat man would go somewhere else.

The four of Conan and the others had already arrived near the second barbed wire fence. They searched all the way, but found no trace of Yuantai, and slowly went deeper inside.

"Look, there's a hole in the wire fence."

Seeing the hole that Mitsuhiko pointed at, Conan was a little puzzled. He had seen the material used in the barbed wire before he came here. It is difficult for animals to bite through it, but judging by the size of the hole, he didn’t think it was bitten by a bear. small.

"Could it be that Yuantai got into the hunting area through this hole?"

"Probably not, he is so timid, how dare he run to such a dangerous place."

"No, I think what Ayumi said makes sense. Genta may not be able to tell which barbed wire this is. If the hunting area is regarded as a safe area, then it is very possible for him to sneak in."

Conan's words made the smiles on the faces of several people no longer exist, and replaced them with seriousness. The hunting area is no different from the outside. There are not only wild beasts in it, but also hunters, and sometimes, hunters may be more terrifying than wild beasts.

"Then what should we do now? Why don't we go back and find Brother Noah to come over and discuss it. He is so powerful, there must be a way."

"Let's act separately. I'll go in to find Yuantai, and you go back to Brother Noah and tell him what happened here."

"I'll go with you, it would be nice to have someone to take care of you."

At this time, Conan obviously became the backbone. He took Huiyuan into the hunting area and disappeared into the dense forest in an instant.

"Let's go find Brother Noah."

Ayumi and Mitsuhiko didn't dare to waste time, and turned around and ran in the direction they came and went.

The atmosphere in the hunting area is completely different from the atmosphere in the safe area. I don't know if it is because of psychological reasons. Conan felt a little depressed when he first came in.

"boom"

A deafening gunshot exploded in the ears of the two, and the big tree beside them exploded, and clearly visible bullet holes appeared in the sight of the two.

Conan's pupils contracted, and he cautiously looked towards the place where the gunshots came from, only to find a black figure looking at them with a sneer, and the shotgun in his hand had been raised again.

"run!"

Conan's yell woke up the dazed Huihara, and the two ran deeper into the forest without looking back. Although they didn't know why, this person obviously wanted to kill them.

The black shadow behind them kept shooting at Conan and the others. I don't know whether it was poor marksmanship or Conan and the two hid too well, and none of them hit.

After running for a while, the two found that the black shadow was not chasing them, and after a long sigh of relief, they gasped and rested on the spot.

"Why did that person hit us? The first shot may have taken us as prey, but after seeing that we were human, he still chose to shoot."

"I don't know. At that time, my vision was too dark, and I couldn't see the other party's situation."

"Susu Susu"

The two people who were talking raised their hearts again, looked nervously at the grass next to them, and cold sweat slowly broke out from Conan's forehead.

"Did that person come after you just now?"

Turn on the anesthesia watch and point it at the grass that made the sound. The two held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

The movement in the grass grew louder and louder, as if they were constantly approaching the two of them.

"Ow"

A soft roar came from inside the grass, and then a black head was revealed.

"Is this a bear?"

"so cute!"

The reactions of Conan and Haibara were completely different. Conan was surprised, and Haibara was surprised. They went forward and hugged the little bear.

This bear should have been born less than a year ago, about the same height as Huiyuan, with two round eyes, and it looked a little cute as it hadn't learned how to hunt, its body stiffly swayed back and forth following Huiyuan's movements.

"Stop playing, let's go quickly. Since the little bear is here, its family must not be far from here. If we find out that we are with the little bear later, the two of us together will not be enough for him to slap him."

Huiyuan is not a child, so he naturally knows this truth, reluctantly let go of the little bear, and continued on the escape journey with Conan.

The little bear obviously didn't understand why this creature, which was about the same size as him, suddenly stopped playing with him, so he hurriedly chased after them, and followed closely behind them.
