The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"Fomalhaut n'gha-ghaa"

In front of the flames, Kuchiki Feiyan passionately chanted a spell.

There are frequent high-pitched "quacking" sounds in the spell, which are like the neighing of wild beasts and are full of wild flavor, but they also contain a certain unique and rigorous rhythm.

".Cthugha!"

After chanting the same incantation three times, his last note almost filled the night sky.

In front of the crackling fire, Conan twisted his hands to see if he could break free of the rope buckle on his hands, while carefully looking around at the five red-robed men.

"Haiyuan, do you know what they are doing?" Conan asked after calming down.

Haiyuan Ai thought for a moment and wanted to rely on her experience of watching fantasy works to say that they should be performing some kind of magic. However, as a scientist, she could not say such a thing. She could only shake her head and express that she did not know.

"The top priority now is to find a way to escape."

Haibara Ai's words reminded Conan, and he quickly restrained his inappropriate curiosity and thought about how to deal with the current crisis.

Judging from the fact that the leading man in red robe took off the hood on his head and let others see his face, they had no intention of leaving anyone alive. If they continued to wait here, they would definitely be dead.

The man in red robe finished singing, picked up a torch prepared in advance, placed it in front of the fire and lit it.

"Gone but not forgotten, Cthugha awaits at Fomalhaut!"

"I offer sacrifices to you! I promise death!"

"Come Cthugha!

The man in red robe held a torch high and spoke still obscure words in Japanese that everyone could understand.

Conan and Hui Yuan Ai frowned, feeling that the other was challenging the knowledge base of their two humanoid self-propelled encyclopedias.

I have heard of Fomalhaut, a star 25 light years away.

What is Cthugha?

Why on earth did they set the fire?

In the past, when I reached the stage where "villains talk a lot," I could at least see the other person's motives, but now, Conan can't understand this group of people anymore.

They're not really going to do magic, are they?

magic

At this moment, the man in red robe holding a torch suddenly thrust the torch in front of the young detective team. The blazing heat immediately forced the five little ones to shrink back in fear.

"Young man! Your sacrifice is not in vain!"

"Your body will become the nourishment for the coming of the 'holy fire', and this corrupt earth will also be baptized!"

The men in red robes kept approaching the young detective team with torches. Yuantai, who was at the front, was so frightened by the flames that he grinned and felt that his eyebrows were being burned. His face showed an expression that looked like he was actually crying, and his body instinctively moved back. shrink.

But even so, the companions behind him could not continue to retreat, because the sea of ​​​​flaming flames behind them could not tolerate the approach of humans.

Feeling the burning heat on his back, Mitsuhiko was so frightened that he burst into tears, while Ayumi was so frightened that she called her mother.

"Mom! Mom"

This group of lambs waiting to be roasted experienced an unprecedented disaster, and the continuous screams made Conan, who was still thinking about ways to escape, nervous.

hateful! These guys mean business!

They really want to burn us to death!

The last time he encountered such a crisis was when he encountered bank robbers in a cave, and those people did not hesitate to shoot at the child.

It's just that being shot to death is definitely a thousand times more comfortable than being burned to death.

The feeling of the protein all over the body being burned by the flames and making a "sizzling" sound made even Huihara Ai, who had long looked down on death, widen his eyes in horror.

The flames were getting closer and closer, and at this critical moment, a hurricane suddenly blew up in the field in front of the warehouse.

The wind helped the fire, and the flames suddenly burned much more violently, making several men in red robes immediately overjoyed.

"It's Cthugha!"

"The Living Flame has answered us!"

"Holy fire! It's the holy fire!"

The voices of several people were not worth mentioning in the din of the hurricane, and they were quickly drowned.

These hurricanes swept up, causing the flames of the burning warehouse to shoot into the sky, forming a hurricane fire tornado.

Conan, Haihara Ai and the three little ones turned around and discovered this incredible spectacle.

What's this? !

This unscientific!

Flames and well-timed hurricanes, two natural forces superimposed to form this spectacle, made almost everyone unable to help but cast their eyes on it.

At this time, not only the people around the warehouse, but even pedestrians far outside the warehouse area also noticed the fire tornado blowing in the warehouse area.

In front of Shinagawa Station.

Sato Miwako, Takagi Wataru, and Shiratori Rensaburo are speculating whether Qin Zhibo brought the members of the Youth Detective Team home first, but they cannot confirm this guess because they do not know Qin Zhibo's phone number.

Among them, Shiratori Rensaburo accidentally looked into the distance and happened to see a cone-shaped flame tornado standing in Shinagawa District.

"Then, what is that."

Next to them, Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru cast their gazes in the direction Shiratori was looking at, and also saw the incredible scene.

"This is...a fire!"

Sato Miwako was the first to react and immediately ran to the car and used the radio to call the headquarters directly, asking the headquarters to notify the fire department to come to Shinagawa District to put out the fire.

"Takagi! Shiratori!"

"Go to the scene for rescue!"

Miwako Sato's sharp shout brought back the attention of Takagi Wataru and Shiratori Rensaburo. They quickly got into the police car, sounded the siren, and rushed to the scene with all their strength.

In the Shinagawa Warehouse District, Qin Zhibo certainly saw the spectacle of this fire tornado.

The only difference is that Qin Zhibo knows that the spectacle is man-made.

Behind Qin Zhibo, Koizumi Hongzi's hair was flying, the clothes on her body were not moving, and the air around her was moving with some irregular rhythm.

This is Koizumi Hongzi's tornado magic, which happened to be applied to the flames, causing ordinary flames to form something like a fire tornado.

In order not to burn the young detective team who were near the flames, Koizumi Anko controlled the hurricane extremely restrained.

She let most of the firepower follow the hurricane and vent it into the deserted night sky. By the way, people outside could also see the situation here and call the police.

Things were just as Qin Zhibo expected. When these fanatical believers saw the appearance of the fire tornado, they thought it was the gods they longed for in their hearts who responded to their spells, so they all looked up and watched.

At this time, Qin Zhibo also had the opportunity to take action.

Based on the information he had obtained in advance, he first targeted two of the men. One of the men happened to be handing out flyers at the intersection during the day.

Qin Zhibo quietly touched his back and saw a powerful hand knife that worked wonders, knocking the person unconscious.

then the second one

Next came two female members of the Zoroastrian Cult, and while their eyes were blurred with longing for the flames, they were quickly brought down with two hand knives.

Finally, there is the Zoroastrian priest, Kuchiki Hiyan.

Qin Zhibo quietly walked around behind him and kicked him forward with his legs from behind, giving him a large mask of pain.

"Ouch——"

This extremely shrill scream drew the young detective team's attention away from the fire tornado. It was only then that they finally discovered that the five red-robed men in front of them had been knocked down.

And Qin Zhibo is cleaning the battlefield.
