Conan Rick's Investigator

Conan thought for two seconds, and his mind recalled the tightly closed curtains in the painting studio when he and Qin Zhibo visited Ruyue Fengshui's mansion.

"Perhaps Kisaragi Fengshui thinks the twin skyscrapers are blocking his view of Mount Fuji..."

……

"wrong."

Qin Zhibo shook his head, rejecting the reasoning made by Amuro Toru.

"The split shot glass doesn't represent the obstructed Mount Fuji. The shot glass and the volcanic ash should be viewed as a whole."

"If the wine glass represents the volcano as a whole, and the ash underneath represents the lava system within the volcano, then the split wine glass represents..."

"You long for a volcanic eruption!"

Qin Zhibo shouted loudly, pointing directly at Ruyue Fengshui who was standing opposite.

Ruyue Fengshui lowered his head slightly and let out a strange "gurgling" laugh from the bottom of his throat.

"Not bad!"

"I've been painting Mount Fuji all my life, and it's all Mount Fuji in all four seasons. I say each season has its own unique characteristics, but in fact, they are all very similar."

"I'm tired of this static Mount Fuji! Enough!"

“But the 1707 ukiyo-e painting of the eruption of Mount Fuji gave me new inspiration for my creations!”

"I've painted countless images of Mount Fuji in my life, but I've never painted the eruption!"

"I have to witness Mount Fuji erupting with my own eyes!"

“I have to see it with my own eyes!”

As he spoke, Ruyue Fengshui suddenly straightened his back and raised his arms to shout.

"Royinger! Come back!"

"Awake! Ghatanothoa, the volcano king beyond eternity!"

"Make my wish come true!"

Chapter 569: Return of Lloygal

"Tremble, earth!"

"Cthulhu's eldest son, come!"

"Ghatanothoa, the Volcano King of Ganta!"

Ruzuki Minemizu was like a crazy actor, waving his cane and spouting crazy lines, making it impossible for Qin Zhibo and Amuro Toru to get close to him.

"What's up with him?"

Toru Amuro doesn't understand what a san value of zero means, and can't understand Rugetsu Minemizu's behavior.

"Just like you, I've lost my mind..." Qin Zhibo replied.

Toru Amuro: "..."

In fact, when Toru Amuro recalled what he had just done, he also felt a little confused.

But in Kisaragi Minemizu, Amuro Toru could sense a more strange and indescribable temperament.

Like a gloomy, silent fog...

As Toru Amuro was thinking about this, a cloud of mist actually appeared in the painting of Mount Fuji in the center of the stage.

This ball has an extremely strange aura, as if it has vitality, entwining and swirling in the air.

Finally, it condenses into a specific biological image.

The creature's body was huge and strange, and its arched back was more than two people tall.

It has scales, sharp claws and a strong tail like a crocodile. It looks a bit like a reptile, but it is completely different from any reptile on Earth.

To describe it in the simplest terms, it is like a deformed, mutated dragon, a horror that should only exist in human imagination.

Faced with this intimidating huge figure, Qin Zhibo subconsciously took half a step back.

This is... Roinger.

Roinger is usually an energy body that is invisible to the naked eye.

But now, it's concrete.

Toru Amuro on the side also looked up at the figure in front of him, his eyes wide open, with a mixture of surprise, fear, uneasiness, curiosity and other emotions in his eyes.

The two men's consciousness seemed to be connected to this horrifying thing, and the extreme fear turned them into two silent, stiff statues.

At this moment, Qin Zhibo and Amuro Toru seemed to have been standing here for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Faced with this terrifying image, the wills of both men began to weaken simultaneously.

Qin Zhibo: Will -10

Toru Amuro: Will -20

[Mythical Knowledge and Skills +400]

Suddenly, the reptile cast its hideous, entangled head toward the Moon Peak water on the side of the stage, and the goose-yellow Tong Kong stared at it carefully.

Ruyue Fengshui stopped waving his crutches frantically as if he had received some kind of computer program instruction, took out a small brown bottle that looked like oral liquid from his arms, and drank the liquid inside.

In less than two seconds, an expression of extreme pain appeared on his face and a low groan of pain came from the bottom of his throat.

Then, Ruyue Fengshui's body was like a felled tree. He fell to the floor of the stage, holding his throat, and a light from the investigation point appeared above his head.

Ruyuefengshui is dead.

He committed suicide, and judging from the poison in his arms, he had prepared to commit suicide long ago.

Why is that?

Didn't he want to draw Mount Fuji erupting?

How can you draw a dead person?

Qin Zhibo narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly thought of a possibility.

He just said that in order to realize his long-cherished wish, he needed Roinger and Gatanothoa.

But according to Koizumi Akako, Luo Yinger has the psychic ability to control humans.

What if the fundamental purpose of everything Yue Fengshui and Luo Yinger did was actually a ritual to revive some kind of existence?

The ceremony required sacrifice, and the first person to be sacrificed was Councillor Oki.

The second person who should have been sacrificed was Yuan Jiaming, but Yuan Jiaming was taken away by the organization's people first.

The third person to be sacrificed was Tokiwa Mio.

In other words, there were originally supposed to be three sacrifices and three lives, but now one is missing.

But with Ru Yuefengshui's self-sacrifice just now, everything required for the ritual seemed to be completed.

Something is about to be summoned!

Just as Qin Zhibo was thinking this, the ground began to tremble slightly.

It wasn't the explosion that was causing the building to shake, but some more powerful force.

This is definitely not something humans can create.

The earth was shaking faintly and the air was rumbling.

All this seemed to be announcing her return.

……

Twin Towers Building B, rooftop swimming pool.

A large number of police, rescue workers and related personnel gathered here.

The fire is gradually spreading to the upper floors, and the fire brigade is trying to put out the fire by pouring water on Building A opposite to prevent the fire from spreading.

"Increase the pressure!"

“It’s already the biggest!”

"Captain, I still can't spray it there!"

Even though the fire department's sprinkler pipes had reached maximum water pressure, they still only threw out a gorgeous parabola in the night sky and could only water the ground.

At this moment, the one under the greatest pressure is not the Tokiwa Group that owns the skyscraper, but the insurance company that insured the building.

Conan activated the telescope function of his glasses and stared at the glass of the banquet hall on the 75th floor, trying to peek at what was going on inside.

But since Building B is 6 stories shorter than Building A, this is impossible.

However, Conan knew that the real culprits in the case - Ruyue Fengshui and Qin Zhibo, should be there.

Let the Junior Detectives climb up to the rooftop; they should be almost there...

The good news is that with Qin Zhibo's strength, he should be able to easily subdue a criminal in his sixties.

The bad news is...

Conan thought about it and found that he had not found any particularly bad news yet.

If nothing unexpected happens, the helicopter will arrive soon and we can all evacuate to the roof together.

But Murphy's Law tells the world that if nothing unexpected happens, an accident will happen soon.

Suddenly, a roar was heard from the roof of Building A. In an instant, strong flames spread across the rooftop helipad, cutting off the helicopter's escape route.

Inspector Megure quickly checked through his binoculars and exclaimed, "Why is there still a bomb?"

"Who did this?"

From the moment the explosion began, Inspector Megure ordered the police headquarters to investigate whether any chemical plant had lost the raw materials for making bombs.

But unfortunately, no bomb raw materials were lost from any chemical plant.

This made Inspector Megure very puzzled. Could it be that this Rutsuki Minemizu could defuse a bomb with his bare hands?

……

Municipal Building, rooftop.

Gin and Vodka were monitoring the police communication channel while deciding which bomb to explode.

The bombs approved by the organization must eventually be detonated to prevent the police from tracing the source of the bombs.

Since it's going to explode, let it cause some blood.

“Art… is explosion?”

Gin remembered the conversation he had just had with Vermouth, this was Michael Bay's catchphrase.

By now, Gin already knows the catchphrases of the two top leaders of the organization.

Rum: Time is money

Michael Bay: Art is explosion

Just as Gin was grinning and thinking about which "art" to detonate next, a series of continuous and low earth rumbling sounds erupted in the sky.

Gin's ears moved slightly, and he immediately turned his head to look in the direction where the sound came from.

It's Mount Fuji!

Chapter 570: Amuro Toru: Little sister, your thoughts are very dangerous...

Mount Fuji.

In Japanese culture, it is a sacred mountain that embodies natural charm, beauty and solemnity, and is a holy place revered by countless Japanese.

But everything has two sides, and Mount Fuji is no exception.

At this moment, it is showing its terrifying other side.
