Seeing Tanaka Kikue's reckless behavior, other magic enthusiasts became worried and rushed into the woods.

"Ms. Tanaka, it's dangerous outside!"

"Come back soon!"

In the woods, all kinds of sounds were mixed together, and Tanaka Kikue achieved her goal.

Long before rushing into the woods, Tanaka Kikue had already set her sights on one of the tree trunks with an arrow stuck in it. Now all she had to do was run to the tree and pull out the arrow.

Five meters, four meters, three meters...

Arrived!

Just as Tanaka Kikue was about to reach for the arrow stuck in the tree trunk, another hand got there first and grabbed the arrow shaft.

A white glove was worn on his strong and powerful palm, and with just a little effort he pulled out the arrow that was deeply embedded in the tree trunk.

"Found it, the first one..."

Qin Zhibo looked at the arrow in his hand with a relieved expression.

Then, Qin Zhibo raised his hand and handed the arrow to Tanaka Kikue, putting on an expression of "returning the item to its original owner" and asked, "Ms. Tanaka, is this arrow yours?"

Tanaka Kikue naturally shook her head in denial.

"How is that possible? I was just passing by. I've never seen this arrow before..."

After saying that, Tanaka Kikue quickly ran in the other direction, shouting as she ran: "Shadow Mage! If you are a man, come out!"

Although an arrow fell into the detective's hands, the situation was not serious.

Because he had already thought that the arrow might not be retrieved in time, he deliberately wiped off the fingerprints on the arrow before shooting it out.

In fact, the reason for recovering the arrows was to prevent the police from inferring the impossible method of Jibfan's crime based on the arrows left on the tree.

There are still two arrows missing. As long as they can be retrieved successfully, no one can think of the "triangular sail" technique!

Kikue Tanaka continued to create chaos with her voice in the dim woods, while standing in an open space in the woods to determine the direction.

Although it was dark in the woods and the location of the other tree with the arrow stuck in it could not be seen at all, as long as we followed the pattern of the triangular sail and took the villa as the origin, we could predict the approximate location of the other tree.

After adjusting the direction, Tanaka ran towards another piece of woods that served as a fulcrum.

After running for a while, the child's hole in the field flashed.

There!

That's the tree!

Coming soon!

But when Kikue Tanaka was about to run to a tree less than ten meters away to pull out the arrow, another person got there first.

It was still the familiar white gloves that easily pulled out the arrow stuck in the tree.

"again……"

Qin Zhibo, who was not far away, was muttering to himself while holding the two arrows in his hand, which caused Tanaka Kikue's mentality to change a little.

How come this man finds the lost arrow faster than I do?

wrong!

How did he know there were lost arrows in the woods?

Did he see me shoot an arrow into the woods?

impossible!

If that's the case, he would know right away that I'm the criminal...

I am not satisfied!

There is one last arrow missing, I must find it!

Chapter 208 I can’t think of a chapter title…

In the woods, Qin Zhibo held the two arrows he had just harvested in his white-gloved hands following the instructions of the investigation point.

Apart from the small space of the murder scene, Qin Zhibo’s favorite is this dimly lit environment, which allows him to see the light at the investigation point more clearly.

The mission only lasted 10 minutes, so Qin Zhibo didn't dare to delay. After obtaining two arrows, he immediately ran towards the next investigation point.

……

In the woods, Kikue Tanaka was running towards the depths of the woods, following the direction of the last arrow she shot in her memory.

While running, Kikue Tanaka was comforting herself in her heart.

It doesn't matter if the first two arrows are found, as long as the third arrow tied with the rope is not found, there is still room for maneuver.

The throwing distance of the hand crossbow is about 160m~180m...

The width of the snow in the villa's backyard is 30 meters...

180-30=150……

The stride length of an adult woman when running is about 0.7m...

100÷0.7=214.2……

If we go 214 steps in this direction, we will almost find the missing arrow...

With the help of the data measured during the field survey a week ago, Kikue Tanaka calmly calculated the direction and distance while running. Now all she had to do was find the arrow that flew into the distance.

Even if the arrow fell on the tree, Tanaka Kikue was not worried.

Because the rope behind the arrow will definitely be too long to fall directly on the top of the tree, there will be a section of rope hanging down from the tree.

At that time, you only need to raise your hand to get the arrow!

Even if you can't get it, you can hide it!

……

After counting 214 steps silently in her mind, Kikue Tanaka finally arrived at her destination.

The arrow must have landed near here!

Kikue Tanaka looked around and suddenly saw a hanging arrow under the top of a larch tree.

So lucky!

Tanaka Kikue was overjoyed, ran to the tree and raised her hand to catch the arrow.

However, at this moment, Jianshi suddenly began to tremble.

wow-

What followed was that the entire larch tree began to tremble violently, and large chunks of snow were shaken down and fell directly on Tanaka Kikue's head.

"what!"

This sudden situation frightened Tanaka Kikue so much that she fell to the ground, wondering if she had encountered the legendary "tree man"?

But things were worse than Kikue Tanaka had expected.

It wasn't the trees themselves that were moving; on the other side of the larch, a man was shaking hard at the end of the rope to which his arrow was tied.

Seeing Tanaka Kikue sitting on the ground, Qin Zhibo walked over, extended his hand kindly, and pulled Tanaka Kikue up from the snow.

"Ms. Tanaka, why are you here?"

"I..." Tanaka Kikue was so surprised that Qin Zhibo appeared here that she hesitated.

Due to the urgency of time, Qin Zhibo ignored Tanaka Kikue and turned to look at the arrow hanging on the treetop.

"So the rope is tied to this arrow..."

Qin Zhibo pulled hard on the arrow again, but the rope was hooked on the hook and cross on the pine branch and could not move at all, and could only shake down large chunks of snow as before.

Since that’s the case, Qin Zhibo didn’t waste any more time. He would collect evidence himself when the police arrived.

Time is urgent, I have to go back and start reasoning.

Qin Zhibo brought the "lost" Tanaka Kikue back to the snow, and everyone in the villa also rushed back.

After all three investigation points were found, Qin Zhibo directly started to recreate the scene.

On the balcony where Conan was, a "little black" suddenly appeared. After a series of operations, it suddenly raised something and shot it towards the snow.

a bit……

Two clicks...

three times...

When "Xiao Hei" finished all the movements, Qin Zhibo also roughly understood the technique.

As for the evidence...

Qin Zhibo looked around and his eyes fell on Doi Takeshu.

Obviously, finding evidence is a job best suited for a thief like Kaito Kidd.

……

On the balcony, Conan suddenly shuddered.

Although Conan is suffering from a cold now and shivering is normal, this shiver makes Conan feel a little terrified.

It was as if something evil had merged with my body...

Conan, wrapped in a quilt, moved to the side like a penguin, and everything was fine.

really weird……

Just as Conan continued to look down at the corpse on the snow, thinking about how to crack the impossible crime, Qin Zhibo downstairs had already started reasoning on the snow.

"Ms. Tanaka, the murderer should be you, right?"

Qin Zhibo's sudden words made Tanaka Kikue's heart tremble violently.

Before Tanaka Kikue could explain, Qin Zhibo took out the two arrows in his hand and calmly reasoned, "These two arrows were found on the tree trunk at the edge of the woods. There is also an arrow that is stuck in the tree and cannot be removed."

"As long as we use these arrows, we can design a zipline above the snow and slide Mr. Hamano's body onto the snow."

Qin Zhibo's reasoning was very vague, and there were no diagrams or anything like that, leaving the people around him confused.

So, people who had a good relationship with Kikue Tanaka raised other objections.

Naoko Kuroda: "Ms. Tanaka had never left the villa before the body was found. How could she be the murderer?"

Suzuki Sonoko: "Yes, yes, the murderer is clearly the guy named 'Shadow Mage' in the chat room. Ms. Tanaka's online name is 'Ikasama Douji'."

Qin Zhibo smiled slightly and responded, "Actually, the person called 'Shadow Mage' never existed from the beginning. It was completely fabricated by Miss Tanaka herself."

"As for Ikasama-douji, it was actually the stage name of the magician Harui Fuden when he first debuted."

"In other words, the person who was communicating with you in the chat room earlier was actually Harui Fuden himself, and Ms. Tanaka is actually Harui Fuden's granddaughter."

Qin Zhibo told everyone the relationships between the characters that he had learned in advance, which shocked everyone instantly.

The members of the Magic Lovers' League naturally knew that after Harui Fuchuen's death, two people in the chat room had made rude remarks about the magician's death.

These two people were the deceased Nishiyama Mu and Hamano Toshiya.

"Could it be..." Araki Yoshizuru, one of the organizers of the banquet, looked at Tanaka Kikue as if she were a murderer.

Tanaka Kikue's eyes were complicated, and driven by the desire to survive, she wanted to make a final struggle.

"Where's the evidence?"

"You said these arrows were mine, so you must have evidence, right?"

As soon as Tanaka Kikue finished speaking, a silly voice came from the balcony on the second floor of the villa.

"I found it!"

"It's a crossbow! It's in Miss Tanaka's bag!"

Tanaka Kikue suddenly looked up in the direction of the sound, and saw the chubby Doi Takeki appear on the balcony of his room at some point, holding up the crossbow in his hand for everyone to see.

The evidence was overwhelming, and Kikue Tanaka could no longer defend herself. A bleak smile appeared on her pretty face.
