Conan: Begins to collaborate with Miss Bayonetta and become famous

Baijiu held Lao Bai's beard and examined it. Two obvious red spots on his chin caught his attention.

Was it a snake bite?

He turned to the second brother and asked, "Is the only spare key to this room the one you have?"

In other words, it is also a secret room.

Heiji's forehead was covered with sweat. "Hey... you guys think that the monster called Nue doesn't really exist, does it?"

Baijiu smiled faintly and waved his hand: "Impossible, because I am a staunch materialist."

After a while, the police finally arrived here.

"I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting."

"Hey! Coral Head! I remember seeing you on the high-speed train!" Baijiu came over: "It's been a long time."

Henggou smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that we have indeed met before. I have some impression of you."

But.....I remember the elementary school student more. Why...

He coincidentally appeared at the crime scene again! ?

Yokogawa Tactics cleared his throat and calmed himself down.

"I am a police officer from Shizuoka Prefecture. My name is Yokomizo Sango." He took out his ID and showed it to everyone: "Based on your statements."

"There's a big monster here." He patted his chest confidently: "But you can rest assured that I'm here."

He clenched his fists. "I will protect you all from the monsters!"

Yokomizo took out a notebook and a pen from his pocket and said, "I think some mechanism must have been used. Please describe it for the time being."

"How was the situation when you witnessed the monster?"

He Ye pursed her lips and said softly, "At first, I heard a strange beeping sound."

“Then the grass in front of the hotel started to burn on its own.”

"Let's go outside and take a look." He Ye pointed to one side: "It ran out from the wall on all fours."

"It's a huge monster that's probably close to the second-floor window."

"And then?" Yokogami became interested and wrote down the following in his notebook: "Did you see the monster's head?"

"What about something like fishing line?"

He Ye shook her head: "I didn't see anything like that." She then added: "Not only that, it also bit the warning sign in front of it."

He Ye raised his voice to emphasize: "It just pulled the sign up and carried it away!!!"

Yokogome measured with his hand: "Excuse me, is the warning sign about 30 centimeters?"

Baijiu raised the warning sign with one hand, pointed downward, and said calmly: "This tooth mark is quite obvious."

Yokoguro blinked his confused eyes and said, "It's... it's really a bit big."

Baijiu put his hands on the board and patted it: "We found this warning board, it fell on the way the monster escaped."

"Then there was a bloodstain next to the warning sign, all the way to the pond. Following the bloodstain, we saw the historical researcher."

"Mr. Lao Tiao fell to the ground and died there. There were several scars on his back that looked like claw marks."

"Claw...claw marks? Are they like those of a cat?" Yokomizo looked increasingly uneasy.

Heiji opened the screen of his phone and placed it in front of Yokomizo: "This is the photo I took of the body."

"There's about 10 centimeters between the marks, right?"

After looking at the photo, Yokogami took a deep breath and suppressed his anxiety: "Looking at it this way... we can rule out the possibility that it was a cat scratch."

Liquor:"............."

I feel relieved that Neon has a policeman like you.

"Then we agreed that everyone should stay in the room until the police arrive. We will keep the person in our custody just in case."

"Something like a cell phone that makes sounds."

“Then, we thought it might appear again, so we told the village chief.”

"The four of us are outside guarding the place where the monster appeared."

"But then I heard the beeping sound again. The fire had just been extinguished, but the grass suddenly caught fire again and finally became a large area."

"Just when everyone was getting scared, the dying howls of the archaeologist Old White were heard from the room in the corner of the third floor."

“We rushed to the room and found that he had been poisoned to death in a closed room state.”

Baijiu added: "This time, we found traces of snake bites on his jaw."

"Yes, yes!" He Ye agreed: "When the monster ran away, I saw its tail... It looked like a snake!"

Yokomizo couldn't help but take a half step back: "The tail...the tail is a snake."

Lao Fang tactically adjusted the frame of his glasses: "Mr. Officer, you should have heard of it. The head is a monkey, the body is a civet cat, and the limbs are tigers."

"The tail is a snake, the monster named Nue."

"Nue?"

"The Nue is a legendary monster that appears with black smoke and makes strange calls." The little monkey lowered his voice deliberately.

"Legend?" Yokogo's eyes widened.

"What? You don't know?!" The little monkey came to Henggou.

Yokomizo said with a grin, "Please calm down. From what you said, it sounds like the monster has been resurrected, but that's not the case."

Suddenly, Henggou's attitude changed drastically, and his face darkened: "It has always been here! The monster named Nue! It lives in this black gold forest!"

"I remember someone mentioned 16 years ago that a nue was spotted."

"Yes, it was a foreign member of the gold mining team. He encountered a landslide accident and died after leaving a piece of paper with the word nue written on it."

"I have already reported this matter to—"

"Look!" Yokogami suddenly rushed to the second brother excitedly and interrupted him: "Isn't this here!?"

Officer Yokomizo's expression became ferocious, and he raised his hands high, as if possessed by a demon: "For the past 16 years, that nue must have been——"

He slowly tilted his head and said, "Hiding in the forest the whole time will not be wrong!!"

Baijiu muttered to himself: "How come there are so many idiots in Neon who can become policemen..."

Yokomizo calmed his uneasy heart: "In short! We police officers will definitely be responsible for protecting your safety!"

"Please gather in a room and wait." He took out his cell phone and said, "Then I will negotiate with the higher-ups."

He turned his back and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "See if we can send the Self-Defense Forces to this place."

Heiji looked even more speechless than if he had eaten shit. After all, he was planning to confess his feelings to Kazuha here!

The second brother spread out his palms: "But, I thought it was going to rain, but it didn't."

Baijiu asked: "Why do you say that? Did you feel any water stains at that time?"

"Almost, because when the fire started the second time, a drop of rain fell on my face." The second brother recalled: "Oh, and there was a whoosh sound!"

"Like the sound of opening a carbonated drink."

Carbonated...drinks?
