The Grammatical Investigator in Conan
Chapter 52 Double scare from ax and crowbar
In Qin Zhibo's room, the night light on the bedside table was on.
Although it was late at night, Qin Zhibo rarely fell asleep this time.
Because Qin Zhibo has too many things to think about.
First up is the bandaged man in the woods.
After Xiaolan's description of the situation at the time, Qin Zhibo determined that the bandaged man was indeed not a good person who went up the mountain to chop wood.
In addition, the location of this villa is so close to the location of the main challenge mission, and the straight-line distance is less than five thousand meters.
This forced Qin Zhibo to associate this bandage weirdo with the challenge task.
Bandage to the graveyard.
Weird people versus dead people.
It seems like a good match?
Could it be that the bandage weirdo is the "survival" problem that he has to face in the challenge mission?
There is one reason that supports Qin Zhibo's thinking, and that is that so far, Qin Zhibo has not received the trigger prompt for the side mission.
Without triggering the side mission, Qin Zhibo could not see the investigation point and could not conduct an investigation.
But assuming that the bandage monster is the problem he has to face in the challenge, Qin Zhibo feels that this is a bit strange.
Because that bandage weirdo was unquestionably human.
Although Qin Zhibo was unable to see any information about the other party through the system due to facial occlusion, Qin Zhibo was very sure that the bandaged man was speaking to him at that time.
It's a pity that Qin Zhibo didn't hear what he was saying clearly because of the noise of the rain and the bandage monster's unclear speech.
In Qin Zhibo's opinion, it seems that dealing with such a human being cannot afford the main mission reward of up to 5,000 general skill proficiency levels.
So after careful consideration, Qin Zhibo decided to exchange for a new prop that was refreshed this week, to confirm the situation at the main challenge mission location at this time, and to see if the bandage weirdo was moving around there.
[Redeem successful! 】
[Congratulations on getting the guard totem vision transformation! 】
In the system's prop column, there is a new prop that Qin Zhibo purchased with 500 general proficiency. It is also the only prop that Qin Zhibo can currently afford.
The use of this prop is very simple, just use your mind to insert it on the electronic map within 10 kilometers of yourself.
After the eye insertion is completed, a creature that fits the surrounding environment of the target location will be generated at the target location, which is also the eye location.
In the forest, maybe a dandelion.
In the city, it might be an empty can.
Once the eye position is moved, it is equivalent to being destroyed, and the entire prop will enter a three-day cooling period.
So this is not so much a prop as an ability.
Thinking about it this way, Qin Zhibo felt that this ability was a very suitable purchase.
Under the control of Qin Zhibo's mind, the eye position was inserted on the red coordinates of the electronic map.
The blue dots and red coordinates overlapped, and Qin Zhibo received the picture from the guard totem.
The first thing you can see from the picture is the white mist flowing slowly on the black earth.
The dim moonlight shines on this land, and the tombstones and earth bags of different sizes stand out like towering mountains from the flowing white mist.
On these old and neglected tombstones, weeds and moss that grow wildly stick to the bottom and top of the tombstones like "hair".
In addition to the crooked tombstones, there are also some "black rectangles" exposed on the land.
Qin Zhibo guessed that it might be a coffin that had not had time to be buried.
Continuing to rotate the 360° angle of view, the surroundings are basically so dead and gloomy.
Because there are many overgrown weeds and bushes on the cemetery, the moonlight does not shine very evenly on the land, resulting in many dark places where it is difficult to see clearly.
But according to visual inspection, this cemetery is really not small. There are more than 20 tombstones that can be seen clearly at night.
This reminded Qin Zhibo of what the bus driver said.
There once was a village in this deep mountain, but it almost died after experiencing an infectious disease.
I'm afraid this cemetery is where the corpses of the villagers were buried at that time.
Qin Zhibo didn't know if the people in this villa knew about this.
But if you knew that, and the bandage monster appeared, you might not be able to sleep all night, right?
Among the people lying on the bed in the villa, there was indeed one who couldn't sleep.
It's just that I don't have insomnia because of fear, but because I am too excited for various reasons.
Conan, who was unable to sleep, used his arms as a pillow and thought about what happened that day.
First, Xiaolan was attacked by the bandage monster, and then Qin Zhibo happened to appear nearby and indirectly saved Xiaolan.
As for the identity of the bandaged man, Conan's current guess is that he is a murderer lurking in the mountains.
However, Conan definitely didn't believe in the idea of Qin Zhibo coming to this remote mountain for an outing.
But other than that, Conan couldn't think of other possibilities.
However, Conan still vaguely remembers that Qin Zhibo was asking the sculptor Akutsu Makoto about the "Sleeping Poseidon" last time.
Let us recall that Qin Zhibo graduated from the world-famous Miskatonic University.
Could it be that some people appear to be detectives, but secretly they are treasure hunters?
But can a treasure hunter carry a crowbar without a shovel?
At this time, a discordant creaking sound sounded from the balcony of the room.
A gust of cool wind came, and Conan looked towards the balcony alertly, and at a glance he saw the bandaged man walking in with a sharp ax in his hand.
Conan: (°ロ°)!
The bandage monster swung his ax at Xiaolan without saying a word, but Conan had an idea and kicked Xiaolan away from her, avoiding the fatal axe.
This situation surprised Takahashi Ryoichi under the bandage. He didn't expect that this humble elementary school student had such amazing foot strength.
But at this moment Takahashi Ryoichi has made up his mind to get rid of this little girl named Mao Lilan first.
So Takahashi Ryoichi turned around and continued walking towards Mao Lilan, who was completely asleep.
"orchid!"
"Get up! Lan!"
Conan tried to wake up Mao Lilan with his loudest voice, but for some reason, Mao Lilan slept soundly tonight and just couldn't wake her up.
And at this moment when Lan Lan didn't respond, a loud and powerful sound of drilling the door rang out.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
This violent sound startled everyone in the room. Even Xiaolan, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the sound and opened her eyes drowsily.
Xiaolan opened her eyes just in time to see the bandaged man in front of her, and immediately burst out with a scream of terror.
Hearing the ear-piercing scream and the violent banging on the door, Takahashi Ryoichi felt panicked and ran away from the balcony without caring about silencing him.
Almost at the same time, the bedroom door was completely opened.
Almost the entire lock position of Suzuki's specially customized high-strength wooden door was chipped out. Standing outside the door was Qin Zhibo holding a crowbar.
When she saw the tall and burly Qin Zhibo outside the door holding a long black stick in his hand, Mao Lilan, whose head was still half asleep, screamed again.
Thanks to Lian Qi Qi and Shi Qiu for the reward!
Thank you all for your monthly votes!
