Naoto Hayashi's eyes widened slightly.

He actually sensed a faint, eerie spiritual presence emanating from this woman!

It's likely that she recently came into contact with some special items, which caused her to become tainted by some external spiritual energy.

It is not a "legendary" object, but a spiritual entity that naturally gathers under certain special circumstances, such as places where many people have died.

This kind of spirituality is harmful to ordinary people, just like the oil painting "Divine Punishment" at the Mika Art Museum, which can cause people to have illusions and lose short-term memories.

The men took the woman to the hospital. Although she quickly regained consciousness, subsequent examinations revealed that she had suffered a head injury and seemed to have lost her memory as a result.

She only remembered that her name was "Mayo".

The woman, unable to recall her past, looked bewildered and pitiful, which ignited Kogoro Mouri's protective instincts, and he vowed to help her regain her memories!

Lin Zhiren watched coldly from the sidelines.

The female assassin's amnesia was not caused by the impact, but by external spiritual influence.

As long as this trace of spirituality is removed, or left to dissipate naturally, the other person's memory will naturally be restored.

If Kogoro Mouri is willing to investigate, then let him investigate. Naoto Hayashi only needs to keep an eye on Kogoro to make sure he doesn't get killed.

Finding people is Kogoro Mouri's forte!

Before long, Kogoro found the hotel where the amnesiac female assassin was staying through various means.

Unfortunately, this hotel room was probably just a temporary place for her to stay, as there was practically nothing in it to prove her identity.

At least none of the pistols or bodysuits that Naoto Hayashi had ever seen were there.

However, they did find a note with strange numbers and English words written on it. Conan deduced that it should be an address.

After leaving the hotel, the group was about to continue tracking the girl's movements when suddenly a car sped towards them!

That stance was like they wanted to run them all over!

Chapter 34 Kogoro was hanged

"Get out of the way!"

Conan yelled!

Naoto Hayashi grabbed Ran with one hand and Conan with the other, and dodged to the side of the road!

Kogoro Mouri, on the other hand, rolled around in a sorry state, covered in dust.

Maya Tachibana... She jumped nimbly, landed in a half-crouch, and her posture was elegant.

Despite being in a state of amnesia, the evasive maneuvers were performed as if by instinct.

Upon seeing this, a sharp glint flashed in Conan's eyes.

Suspicious! Very suspicious!

The car sped past and disappeared at the end of the street in the blink of an eye.

"Who...who is it?" Kogoro Mouri was still in shock.

Naoto Hayashi said, "He's a man with a big beard, wearing a hat and sunglasses. He's probably in disguise, which is covering up his true appearance."

"This is an attack!" Conan declared, but the target of the attack... He glanced at Kogoro Mouri and that "Maya" lady.

What is the target?

A sharp glint flashed in Maya Tachibana's eyes, a murderous intent surging within her.

Although she had temporarily lost her memory, her long-standing killer instinct and will immediately gave rise to the idea of ​​retaliating.

Moreover, she vaguely felt that when she thought of "killing," certain memories would surface in her mind, as if those memories were about to resurface.

"Killing intent?" Lin Zhiren glanced at her but didn't say anything. Truly worthy of being called an assassin, her strength is formidable, and she's already showing signs of recovery.

This woman must have killed a lot of people in the past; her sins are as thick as mud on her body.

After complaining for a while, Kogoro continued to help the amnesiac beauty regain her memories.

Soon, Conan deduced again that Tachibana Maya had been in a car accident, and the violent collision caused her current amnesia.

They found the bus route that Tachibana Maya had taken, and the group decided to get on the bus and explore each stop one by one.

When Maya Tachibana saw an abandoned, deserted building, she was shocked, and her lost memories surged back.

She remembered her identity and the purpose of her trip!

It was none other than the lecherous middle-aged man beside him, Kogoro Mouri!

This is so damn unlucky!

Tachibana Maya cursed under her breath.

She just accepted a mission from the organization's internal system yesterday to assassinate "famous detective Kogoro Mouri".

So she found a hotel near the Mouri Detective Agency to observe from a distance.

They even took a bus, intending to scout out a deserted, secluded spot to lure their target in and kill them.

Unexpectedly, an accident occurred midway through the journey; the bus was involved in a crash! She was also struck and suffered amnesia...

"No!"

Maya Tachibana was startled. This strange memory loss was probably not caused by the car accident, but rather by the influence she had during the last investigation of the special magnetic field!

Before arriving in Beika Town, Tachibana Maya had just investigated an old castle, which had a special magnetic field.

Although nothing useful was found in the end, and I was careful enough, I still ended up getting infected without even realizing it.

"Damn it! I've been affected by that weird magnetic field, and my brain's acting up! Maybe even that car accident was..."

However, Tachibana Maya wasn't too worried.

This impact and harm can be divided into multiple levels.

The most serious consequence is possessing mysterious items, or even frequently touching or ingesting them, which can lead to brain death, schizophrenia, depression, and suicide.

If you are only affected by the magnetic field for a short period of time, at most you will experience some hallucinations, insomnia, and forgetfulness, but there will be no serious consequences.

Take a couple more days off, get some sun, or go with a few other people.

However, the timing of this symptom onset was extremely unfortunate, as it happened right while I was on an assassination mission.

Luckily, this idiot delivered himself right to my doorstep...

Maya Tachibana gave Kogoro Mouri a cold look, feeling that she was not that bad.

As for the others, a high school girl, an elementary school student, and a skinny little assistant, they were not worth mentioning.

She got up and got out of the car, and Kogoro and the others quickly followed.

"Do you remember this place?" Kogoro muttered to himself, looking around at the desolate surroundings. This area is full of abandoned buildings; what is Miss Maya doing here?

Suddenly, a loud gust of wind blew overhead, and a large piece of reinforced concrete crashed down from the roof!

Kogoro Mouri and Maya Tachibana were the first to be hit!

However, since Mori had just been nearly hit by a car, he was still alert and immediately sensed something was wrong, so he jumped aside to avoid it.

Maya Tachibana nimbly dodged again and looked up.

Someone leaned halfway out from the rooftop; it was the same man with sunglasses and a big beard who had hit someone with his car earlier!

Seeing that the people below were unharmed, the man spat angrily and immediately turned and ran away!

Kogoro Mouri yelled and got up to chase after him!

"Miss Maya, you stay here... Huh?" Ran was about to tell Miss Maya to hide in a safe place, but when she turned around, she found that the woman was gone.

"Conan, did you see... Huh?" She turned her head again to remind Conan, but as soon as she turned her head, she found that Conan was gone too.

Naoto Hayashi pointed in the direction of the abandoned building: "They went after Mr. Mori."

Xiaolan felt mentally exhausted.

They're all so troublesome, I guess straight guy is the best...

She immediately perked up and said to Naoto Hayashi, "Let's chase after them! I'm worried about Dad and Conan!"

“Okay!” Naoto Hayashi naturally agreed without hesitation, as he was also worried that something might happen to Conan, his long-term meal ticket.

The two ran up the abandoned building and saw Conan and Kogoro Mouri in a fit of impotent rage. In front of them was a whole collapsed floorboard, and the man with sunglasses and a big beard was standing opposite them.

The bearded man seemed to sneer, then turned to run away.

Conan picked up a rock the size of a tennis ball, turned on the switch of his high-tech power-enhancing shoes, and unleashed a surge of power, slamming his foot into the rock!

The stone flew out with a whoosh, seemingly wrapped in a layer of crimson flames, and struck the man's back with tremendous speed!

The bearded man let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.

Kogoro Mouri was overjoyed and slapped Conan hard on the back, saying, "You little brat, you're not bad!"

Then I quickly went around to other floors, ready to catch that bastard.

Conan chuckled dryly and was about to catch up when Ran, who had caught up from behind, grabbed him and hugged him!

"Conan! This place is so dangerous, how dare you run around like that?! I'm getting angry!"

Embarrassed, Conan straightened his legs and could only feign ignorance and act cute: "Ran-neechan... I'm sorry..."

He looked at Lin Zhiren beside him, frantically giving him meaningful glances, hoping that he could put in a good word for him.

Naoto Hayashi glanced to the side and even whistled as if nothing had happened.

Who cares about you?

Just then, Naoto Hayashi's ears twitched as he heard a faint sound of painful struggle coming from not far away.

The gold ring on his hand instantly turned into a tiny bee and flew away!

After passing through two rooms, the little bee saw a horrifying scene: Kogoro Mouri was suspended in mid-air with a thin but strong steel wire around his neck!

Chapter 35 Heading to Moonshadow Island

Holy crap!

Naoto Hayashi was shocked!

If a normal person were strangled by a steel wire and suspended in mid-air, their head would probably be cut off!

Even if it can't be cut off, it can sever the trachea and major arteries in the neck, which is extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, Kogoro reacted quickly enough to grab the wire with both hands and barely protect his neck.

Even so, he couldn't hold on for long!

And the one pulling the wire opposite Kogoro was none other than the female assassin, Tachibana Maya!

The wire in her hand was pulled from the strangely shaped necklace around her neck, and she was preparing to kill Kogoro in one fell swoop while he was off guard!

That was her murder weapon.

Tachibana Maya revealed a cold smile on her face, as if she was about to succeed.

Sharkman, awesome!

And for a celebrity like Kogoro Nosaru, it's even more awesome!

Lin Zhiren immediately shouted, "Xiao Lan! Teacher is in danger!" and rushed out!

Ran was taken aback, dropped Conan from her hand, and charged forward!

Boom!

Conan slammed his head against the wall, seeing stars.

"Holy crap! You guys..."

At that moment, Naoto Hayashi had already rushed into Maya Tachibana's room where Kogoro was hanging. Just as he was about to rush over and interrupt the female assassin, he felt a sudden gust of wind sweep past him!

Xiao Lan saw the critical situation before her and was instantly filled with anger. She stomped her foot on the ground, leaped into the air, and launched a flying kick with her white leg!

Boom!

Tachibana Maya had no time to react and took the kick squarely. She felt as if her internal organs were twisted and deformed, and she felt as if she had been hit by a dump truck!
