The Grammatical Investigator in Conan
Chapter 61 Return after the mission
Qin Zhibo took out his nuclear lighter. Under the dancing firelight, Qin Zhibo saw clearly what kind of object this investigation point was attached to.
This is a right calf. There are bite marks on the skin, and the Achilles tendon on the back of the calf is basically chewed out.
At this time, it seemed that the calf was too thin and had no meat on it, so it was simply bitten and then discarded at the entrance of the cave.
On the ground at the entrance of the cave, there are other various animal bones.
Most of these skeletons belong to small animals, and some rotten animal furs are draped on these skeletons like tattered rags.
"No wonder I couldn't find Chikako Ikeda's right leg. It turned out to be here."
"These should be the leftovers eaten by the kobolds just now?"
After seeing the scenes in "The Rite of Corpse Food", Qin Zhibo naturally came up with this idea without any discomfort.
Qin Zhibo stretched the hand holding the nuclear lighter further inside so that the firelight could shine farther.
On the ground a little further away, he saw something familiar.
It was a ground paved with broken bones, with fragments of light blue sweaters scattered on it.
Qin Zhibo is no stranger to these light blue sweater fragments.
I remember that Ryoichi Takahashi was wearing a light blue sweater when he escaped yesterday.
"It looks like Ryoichi Takahashi was also captured by these kobolds."
Qin Zhibo took a nuclear lighter and searched near the entrance of the cave, but did not find the body belonging to Takahashi Ryoichi.
If you can't find the body, you can't conduct a corpse investigation, which is equivalent to missing a skill.
But even so, Qin Zhibo did not dare to go deeper.
This black throat-like cave has no end in sight, and a rotten stench is constantly emitting from it. It must be very dangerous inside.
"I'm not the kind of person who takes the initiative to die."
After repeating his character, Qin Zhibo retreated outside the crypt and closed the wooden door of the crypt.
In order to feel at ease, Qin Zhibo moved several large rocks from nearby to suppress it.
After the arrangements were almost completed, Qin Zhibo returned to his coffin.
By the time Qin Zhibo got up from the coffin again, it was already 3:55 in the morning.
Since the kobolds were repulsed by him, those kobolds have never come out to attack again.
Qin Zhibo guessed that the kobold had eaten relatively full in the past two days, so his desire to prey on him was not that strong?
Coming out of the coffin, Qin Zhibo went to the east side of the cemetery again to check the dark crypt from last night.
He removed all the stones holding down the wooden door of the crypt, opened the wooden door, and a surprising scene appeared.
The black throat-like cave behind the wooden door has disappeared!
It was replaced by an ordinary piece of dirt ground with nothing unusual inside, including the large number of animal bones that Qin Zhibo saw with his own eyes last night and the right calf of Chikako Ikeda.
Qin Zhibo grabbed the edge of the wooden door with one hand and knocked on the ground with a crowbar in the other hand.
Poof!
Poof!
The sound coming from the ground was solid, indicating that it was not hollow inside.
The most egregious thing is that there are a few pieces of stale moss and mushrooms growing on the soil under the cave.
What is the principle?
It was obviously a bottomless cave yesterday, so why did it become a solid ground today?
Qin Zhibo didn't understand the principle, but what was certain was that there was some kind of supernatural power.
The entrance to the crypt should only appear at night when the white mist fills the cemetery.
And it was from that crypt that the kobold climbed out.
As for what is deep in the underground cave, maybe only the gods know
While thinking, the countdown to the challenge mission ended completely, and new text appeared on the left side of Qin Zhibo's field of vision.
[Congratulations on completing the main challenge mission]
[Quest exploration level: 50%]
[Acquire 2500 general skill proficiency]
【Get 1 lottery draw】
[Acquire 250 weird mythological knowledge and skill proficiency]
When he saw the rewards for the challenge mission being settled, Qin Zhibo's jaw dropped to the ground in shock.
Because these three rewards are all discounted compared to the rewards promised when the previous challenge mission was released.
The general skill proficiency of 5000 has been changed to 2500.
2 draws turned into 1 draw.
The 500 Weird Myth skill proficiency has been changed to 250.
"Hey, this is different from what we promised."
Qin Zhibo waited patiently for the system to continue settlement, but the system was silent.
After waiting to no avail, Qin Zhibo began to reflect on himself.
The exploration level of this challenge mission is 50%, and the actual mission reward is also 50% of the previously promised reward. It is impossible if there is no relationship between them.
It seems that the "survive until dawn" in this challenge mission is just an indicator for obtaining rewards.
This is also a natural indicator, after all, dead people cannot receive rewards.
The specific amount of rewards you can get depends on the exploration of the entire mission.
As for why his mission exploration rate is only 50%, Qin Zhibo can probably guess it.
I didn't personally explore the situation inside that dark cave.
But after thinking through this logic, Qin Zhibo no longer regretted his choice.
Judging from the disappearance of this crypt during the day and its reappearance at night, this crypt must have been constructed by some extraordinary power. There is a high probability that it is the lair of a kobold, or some other unimaginable space.
If you think about it this way, then giving up the most difficult part of the challenge mission in exchange for 50% of the mission reward is enough to earn.
After all, there was once an extremely arrogant gangster who once said: "You only get a few hundred yuan a month, what are you doing with your life?"
"That's right, I only have a skill proficiency of 2500, what kind of fate am I trying to get?"
Qin Zhibo comforted himself, then turned around to pack his things and prepare to go down the mountain.
Returning to the road from the mountains, Qin Zhibo inevitably encountered the police.
When questioned by the police, Qin Zhibo directly said that he was a person involved in the murder and dismemberment case in the villa the night before yesterday.
So the police cooperated and sent Qin Zhibo to the Metropolitan Police Department in a police car.
In the Metropolitan Police Department, Qin Zhibo was personally questioned by Officer Mumu.
In addition to the routine recording of confessions, Mu Mu also asked about other things.
"Brother Qin, Xiaolan said that you suddenly disappeared when you were going down the mountain. Where did you go after that?"
Qin Zhibo sat upright and said with a stern face: "As a good citizen of Mihua Town, of course I am going to arrest Ryoichi Takahashi."
"And if he escapes, he might take revenge on me, the detective who exposed his conspiracy."
Qin Zhibo's reasons are very good, and Qin Zhibo has won several good citizen awards this month, and his social credit has soared rapidly, but Mu Mu still feels that something is strange.
"Forehead"
"In the future, we should leave such dangerous matters to our police. Don't worry, I have arranged for my men to set up a dragnet. I believe we will be able to catch him."
Qin Zhibo nodded meaningfully to Mu Mu's pledge.
"Well, I hope so."
