The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"Fire in the hole!"

Click, click, click

The sprayer rolled down the mine tunnel, making several hollow and crisp metal collision sounds.

Subsequently, the liquid in the atomizer quickly gasified and sprayed out a lavender mist.

These mist, which are not poisonous to humans but fatal to Mi-Go, made the Mi-Go roar from the tunnel, buzzing and making a lot of noise.

The mist will continue to spray for about 5 minutes.

Qin Zhibo used the task timer to observe the time. After waiting for 5 minutes, the system still did not pop up a prompt that the task was completed.

After waiting for another 5 minutes, there was still no movement inside, and there was no prompt from the system.

There was no way to continue the stalemate like this. Qin Zhibo could only go down to see the situation.

Let the stand-in control the bait puppet and walk in front. Qin Zhibo walked behind, carefully walking through the dark tunnel.

When we got below, there was still some lavender in the air, but the color was already quite thin.

Falling at the mouth of the mine were two Mi-Gos who were dying.

Half of their bodies pierced the human skin wrapped around them, trying to break free and escape, but to no avail.

Their bodies are gradually dissolving, first scattering like dandelion seeds, and then completely melting into a clear, oily liquid.

This is Mi-Go's body mechanism, and when they die, their bodies will rapidly break down within a few hours.

The membrane wings were soaked in the pus that had melted from other parts of the body, and were still fluttering slightly.

Qin Zhibo stepped forward, took out the crowbar from the toolbar again, and peeled off the head of the human skin.

Inside is Mi-Go's iconic ellipsoidal head, with short tentacles twitching slightly.

Qin Zhibo raised the crowbar and was about to end Mi-Go's life when he saw "Qin Zhibo" next to him.

"You do it"

Qin Zhibo handed the crowbar to "Qin Zhibo", and the other took the crowbar and hit Mi-Go's head without hesitation.

Snapped--

MI-Go's head split open like a watermelon, green juice splashing out.

The same was true for the other one, who was neatly eliminated by "Qin Zhibo".

After taking care of the two Mi-Gos, Qin Zhibo stepped forward to check the human skins they used.

One is an old man with a thick mustache, and the other is a mature man. Both of their skins have the light of the investigation point, indicating that they are made from human corpses.

MI-Go's biotechnology and hands-on ability are very strong. It can make the human body into a wearable skin bag, or it can also use some special materials to fabricate a brand new human skin bag out of thin air.

Both corpses were not complete enough to touch the skills.

After all, they were two human beings. Qin Zhibo decided to show his humanitarian spirit and take out the skin and bury it.

But just when he was about to peel off the skin, Qin Zhibo suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The two MI-Gos are completely dead. Why doesn't the system show a task completion prompt?

"."

The atmosphere in the air was eerily silent.

At this moment, a thunderbolt suddenly came from behind.

Qin Zhibo looked back and saw a blue spherical spark flying towards him.

At the critical moment, Qin Zhibo subconsciously made a tactical roll and left the range of the spherical spark.

Away from Qin Zhibo's target, spherical sparks fell on the two corpses, instantly igniting flames.

Qin Zhibo took a look.

Come on, no need to bury it.

Turning his eyes back, Qin Zhibo saw a figure hiding behind a crack in the stone.

This is Futagaki Yoshiki!

The sixth child who attacked him was "Futagaki Yoshiki", but not the real Futugaki Yoshiki.

There is something twisted under his skin, tearing at the outer skin, and it looks inexplicably weird.

"Buzz-"

With that weird sound coming from his body, it's obvious there's a Mi-Go there too.

"Fujigaki's" body movements were inconsistent, twitching and stuck like a zombie. He must have been injured by the sprayer.

It raised the metal weapon in its hand above its head, twisted its wrist at an angle that ordinary people couldn't, and aimed at Qin Zhibo again.

Invisibility is useless against telepathic races.

So, Qin Zhibo quietly put the [Gift of the Golden Tree] on his wrist, improved his agility by 10 points, and focused on the muzzle of the gun, paying attention to the direction and timing of the shot.

Pi——

Another spherical spark was shot from the muzzle. Qin Zhibo, who was highly concentrated, immediately rolled over tactically when he saw the star spark coming out of the gun.

The speed of the spherical sparks was slightly slower than the bullets of human firearms, and the target was too obvious. Qin Zhibo barely dodged the attack.

And "Qin Zhibo", under the instruction of Qin Zhibo's heart, quietly touched the side of "Er Yuan" and jumped over with a big jump.

"Qin Zhibo" has no independent thought, so MI-Go cannot sense him, so he is naturally defenseless.

The two inhuman things were torn together, and Qin Zhibo quickly went to help with a crowbar.

one time.

twice

Three times

Three consecutive blows hit "Er Yuan"'s head hard, causing a huge dent in its head, and its twitching body gradually became motionless.

[Congratulations on completing the main mission - all debts must be paid]

[Acquire 3000 general skill proficiency]

[Get 2 lucky draw opportunities]

Qin Zhibo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the mission prompt that popped up from the system.

"call--"

It turns out that the mission this time is not just to kill one Mi-Go, but a whole nest of Mi-Go.

Qin Zhibo used a crowbar to push open the loose human skin, revealing the Mi-Go underneath.

There was only one skin bag left. Qin Zhibo was too lazy to take it out and bury it alone, so he simply threw it on top of the two skin bags and burned them together.

There was also the dog in the laboratory above the mine tunnel. Qin Zhibo asked "Qin Zhibo" to take it down and burn it together.

Looking at the blazing flames, Qin Zhibo felt a little lost.

After everything was burned to ashes, he glanced at "Qin Zhibo" and took back the substitute messenger and the decoy doll respectively.

After this time, Qin Zhibo found that the combination of these two props was quite easy to use, which was equivalent to having one more friend to perform tasks with.

The old seal, the crowbar, and the friend are all three artifacts.

After finishing the mission, Qin Zhibo started searching around the mine tunnel.

What interests Qin Zhibo is the ore collected by the MI-Go family on the earth.

According to Mr. Clock, the metal ore that the Mi-Go family wants to collect is an ultra-rare ore that has never been found in their own world.

Because the Mi-Go clan uses telepathy to communicate, this ore has not been named.

Even on Earth, which Mi-Go considers a mining area, this ore is not available everywhere.

Mi-Go spent a long time exploring to gradually figure out the general distribution of this ore on the earth.

The ore contains some kind of cosmic energy, which can be used to make some unimaginable creations.

Mr. Clock did not tell Qin Zhibo what the specific creation was, saying that it involved a major plan within the race.

Qin Zhibo wanted to try his luck to see if he could find the ore Mr. Clock mentioned in this mine.

The further inside, the more incredible Qin Zhibo felt.

The underground rock layer is cut into neat and huge rock cubes.

These rock blocks come in various sizes and show how Mi-Go mining works.

They first used a seismic mining machine to transfer the huge rock block into the mine, and then used the seismic mining machine to transfer another piece inside.

Going back and forth like this is like playing with matryoshka dolls.

Although the shell remains the same, the ore inside is gradually transferred out until the ore they want is obtained.

Qin Zhibo walked quickly in the mining area. Square rocks of different sizes created a unique landform.

In order to prevent the mine from collapsing, they used huge rock pillars to prop up the dome of the mine.

It can be seen that MI-Go has been operating this mining area for many years, which is different from the mine that was first dug in Shanni Temple.

Because the mine was too big, Qin Zhibo felt bored after walking around for a while, and he thought there would be no new discoveries, so he went back.

Back at the entrance of the mine, the corpses of the three Mi-Gos had almost decomposed and turned into a mixture of liquid and solid, turbid and viscous.

But in one of the puddles of mucus, Qin Zhibo found a square stone the size of a walnut.

This stone looks like an ordinary stone with a gray texture, but it makes Qin Zhibo a little concerned.

According to Mi-Go's mining method, this stone is transferred layer by layer using a seismic mining machine, and is the last "solid toy" peeled out of the "matryoshka doll".

And Mi-Go carries it with him, which is a bit intriguing.

Could this be the ore Mi-Go wants to mine on Earth?

Qin Zhibo thought for a while and decided to take the stone back and wait for the all-powerful inventor Dr. A Li to return to China and ask him to analyze it.

But thinking about Mr. clcok saying that there was cosmic energy in this thing, Qin Zhibo was a little scared.

The cosmic energy it talks about is radiation, right?

Mi-Go is a race that can physically travel through the universe. They are certainly not afraid of cosmic radiation and do not think it is harmful.

But the human body is different.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo quickly threw the stone on the ground and thought about ways to bring it back safely.

After thinking for a while, Qin Zhibo had an idea.

He first materialized [Bottled Fear] from the prop bar, then asked "Qin Zhibo" to pick up the stone and quickly stuff it into the bottle.

The stones sank into the seawater that was already in the bottle, and then were all taken back into the toolbar by Qin Zhibo.

The effect of bottled fear is to eliminate the fear of one thing in the bottle. When there are two things in the bottle at the same time, the one with the larger volume will be exempted from fear.

Therefore, putting the mysterious stone into the bottle will not affect its effect.

After doing this, Qin Zhibo returned to the underground space on the upper floor.

There are many Mi-Go technologies placed in this place, some of which can be understood and some cannot.

Although these technologies were ahead of mankind for who knows how many years, and even if they were left behind for self-use, their value would be extremely high, but Qin Zhibo knew that he could not take them away.

Because Mi-Go will attach their sacred patterns to the race's technology, as long as humans try to take them away, MI-Go will hunt down the people who stole them.

To put it simply, each of these technologies has GPS installed on it, and it cannot be removed.

Coming out of the hole, Qin Zhibo took a deep breath of fresh air outside.

Turning on the navigator and figuring out the direction of the villa, Qin Zhibo trotted towards the villa and returned to the villa soon.

Turning back to his room from the window, Qin Zhibo took off his coat, put on his slippers, and pretended to have just come out of the room.

Pushing open the door, I happened to meet Conan and Mao Lilan, walking out of the old woman's room.

"Eh? Mr. Qin, did you wake up so soon?"

"Um" Qin Zhibo paused, "I can't sleep a little bit, so get up and move around."

Seeing that Qin Zhibo was awake, Conan felt happy, thinking that he had someone to show off to.

"Uncle Qin, we just checked the video tape from four years ago and found that it was not the avalanche caused by the hunters' shooting, but the earthquake."

Conan puffed out his chest and looked confident, almost saying "I came up with it".

Qin Zhibo glanced down at Conan and said expressionlessly: "Oh, it's pretty good."

Conan: "." This praise is too perfunctory.

What Conan didn't know was that Qin Zhibo figured out not only the cause of the earthquake, but also the origin of those human skins on the way back to the villa.

The skin of the old man with the thick mustache was the former owner of this villa. Qin Zhibo had seen the old man's photo in the living room.

The former owner of the villa died in an avalanche, so the other skin is naturally Ako's brother and Fenchuan's boyfriend, Natsuya.

The two men died in an avalanche triggered by a seismic mining machine, and their bodies were dug up by Mi-Go and made into human skins.

In addition, the dead Ergaki was also taken back by Mi-Go and made into a skin.

As for the two hunters who disappeared, they may have been destroyed by Mi-Go.

Because there are three Mi-Gos in this mining area, which happen to be three human skins.

The buzzing sound that Kyogoku Makoto heard last night was made by Mi-Go, and they discovered Kyogoku Makoto at that time.

After all, Mi-Go can telepathically detect nearby humans, so Kyogoku really can't hide it.

However, Mi-Go already had enough human skins at that time, and these MI-Gos would not easily kill living people, so they did not attack Kyogoku.

Of course, there is no need for Qin Zhibo to tell the truth behind this case.

He touched Conan's head and went to the toilet to wash his hands.

The next day, the police followed the instructions of Maori Kogoro and continued to search for Futagaki's body and the traces of the two hunters in the mountain.

Qin Zhibo wished good luck to the local police and embarked on the road back to Tokyo with the Maori family, Yuanzi and Kyogoku.

Parked on the side of the road in Mikka Town was a private car sent by the Suzuki family.

Kyogoku really wanted to go directly to the airport to catch a plane, and Suzuki Sonoko saw him off.

When he was separated from Kyogoku, Kyogoku solemnly said to Qin Zhibo: "Mr. Qin, the fighting technique you use is Krav Maga, right?"

Qin Zhibo was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Yes, how did you know?"

Kyogoku said seriously: "Actually, this time I challenged masters from all over the world abroad, and I also saw many other martial arts besides karate and judo. Krav Maga from Israel is one of them."

"If I hadn't had some experience, I might have lost last night."

Qin Zhibo thought for a moment. He didn't follow the routine yesterday and almost kicked Kyogoku in the crotch with a sneak attack, but he was still blocked.

If not I have some experience.

Did Kyogoku really have experience of being attacked in the crotch?

Qin Zhibo: "."

Conan on the side raised his head in thought.

It turns out that the mysterious kung fu practiced by Qin Zhibo is called Krav Maga.

I just finished writing the plot of killing a dog yesterday, and the dog that has been with my family for 17 years is gone.

After the update in the afternoon, both the cat and the dog were lying down in my house. The dog asked me to open the door and walked out.

Unexpectedly, that glance turned out to be a farewell forever.

When I came to my senses at 6 o'clock in the evening, when I was about to go out for a walk with the dog, my family told me that the dog was dead and they took him out and buried him without letting me know the whole process.

In fact, there are some signs before the dog fails.

I watched the video of my second uncle a while ago. Old illness is a necessary drill between life and death, but this "drill" is not obvious. Maybe I have thought of it, but I am not ready yet.

People are good at guessing, but I don't want to guess. Speculating on the dog's behavior to create feelings for myself is also creating trouble.

I still remember that when he first came home, he lay down quietly in the toilet. In fact, he was too scared to move. He even peeed on the ground.

It all seems like it happened yesterday.

If the real world was like the world of Conan, and time passed slowly, would it be easier to accept the separation of life and death?

I just want to express my feelings here. The family used silence to cover up the fact that there was one less life under the roof. No one mentioned that it had ever been there.

When you mention it again, it's time to really let it go.
