Conan Rick's Investigator

It looks like this thing can't leave here on its own, so there's no need to control it individually.

Although the blindfolded, armless man looked a little scary under the moon, there shouldn't be anyone else in the forest now.

After finishing things here, Qin Zhibo suggested, "Let's go back to the swamp first."

Bin Mike nodded, "Yeah, it just so happens that I have something to go back and get."

In this way, "Qin Zhibo", Qin Jibo and Bin Mike walked towards the black swamp.

……

In the dim forest, Matsumoto Ryohei was moving forward quietly.

Although Matsumoto Ryohei was a little surprised to hear the gunshots in the woods and realize that someone was following him, he did not give up the operation completely.

The gunshots were probably from a crime going on in the forest, and the people following him only saw him wandering around in the forest.

Which law prohibits people from walking in the forest at night?

So after weighing the pros and cons, Matsumoto Ryohei felt that the problem was not serious and it was none of his business, so he could continue to pick up the bodies.

And if something really happened, it would mean that he could pick up a living corpse.

As a qualified corpse collector, such a trivial matter could not stop Matsumoto Ryohei's desire for corpses.

However, after realizing that there were other people in the forest, Matsumoto Ryohei became more cautious, turned off the flashlight, and went into stealth mode.

As we walked, the forest suddenly opened up and a clearing appeared in front of us.

Matsumoto Ryohei carefully lurked in the bushes and saw five people lying neatly in a row in an open space in the woods, with a mottled white cloth covering their mouths and noses.

Not far from these five people, there was a burly man with his eyes blindfolded, "dancing" in the moonlight, waving his broken arms.

Matsumoto Ryohei looked at this strange scene and his eyes narrowed slightly.

This is……

After observing for a while, Matsumoto Ryohei determined that the five people lying on the ground were unable to move and seemed to be dead.

So, Matsumoto Ryohei took a deep breath, approached these people cautiously, and reached out to feel their pulse.

Still alive...

Matsumoto Ryohei was a little disappointed, as he had originally thought he could pick up five bodies in one go.

Although it is impossible to carry all five corpses out, the delicious parts can be taken out separately, which is also a gift from nature.

But what's with the white cloth on his face?

Matsumoto Ryohei did not take it down to smell it out of curiosity. For him, picking up the corpse was the only purpose and he did not need to know anything else.

Next, all that was left was the "dancing" man with a broken arm.

Ryohei Matsumoto hid behind a tree and observed carefully. The more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong.

The other party did not respond until he walked up and poked it with a stick.

Is he dead?

Ryohei Matsumoto used a wooden stick to check repeatedly and finally confirmed that the other party was completely unconscious, like a zombie.

"This is the first time I've seen this..."

The joy of harvest blossomed in Matsumoto Ryohei's heart, and he immediately put the backpack behind him on the ground and unfolded it.

In the exquisite leather tool bag, a complete set of surgical tools for dissection gleamed in the moonlight.

……

Toushen Forest, Central Swamp.

When "Qin Zhibo", Qin Jibo and Hama Mike returned to the small island in the center of the swamp, they found that Kinoshita Tomonori was missing.

"Kinoshita Tomonori ran away?"

Qin Zhibo shook his head. "That's impossible. I tied his hands and feet with ropes. He shouldn't be able to escape."

In order to prevent Kinoshita Tomonori from escaping even if he woke up, Qin Zhibo tied his hands and feet together from behind, which is the most foolproof way of tying.

But on the small island that was in full view, there was indeed no sign of Tomonori Kinoshita, except for the voodoo believer who was kicked in the vitals.

The search was fruitless. Qin Zhibo was just about to put on the magic extractor and use the locating spell to look for it when Bin Mike beside him called out to Qin Zhibo.

"Come with me."

Qin Zhibo followed Bin Mike to the bushes on the side of the island, where a video camera on a tripod was recording.

"I installed a video recorder here to collect evidence of those guys' crimes."

Bin Mike explained the origin of the VCR, then paused the recording and rewound the VCR.

On the lake surface that was receding at ten times the speed, a figure quickly retreated along the dirt path back to the island.

Hama Mike released the rewind button, and a figure appeared next to Tomonori Kinoshita on the screen.

The man took off his mask, revealing a head of light golden hair.

The man just talked to Tomonori Kinoshita, knocked him unconscious, and then carried him away.

"Who is this person?"

Bin Mike didn't know this person, while Qin Zhibo frowned slightly, with some guesses in his mind.

Although the pixels of the video recorder could not clearly record the man's face, the light golden hair and agile figure reminded Qin Zhibo of someone.

It seems to be...Toru Amuro?

But what is he here for?

Qin Zhibo had some doubts in his heart, but he couldn't be completely sure at the moment.

prosperous——

Want Want——

While Qin Zhibo was thinking, the sound of dogs barking was heard from one side of the swamp, and dozens of flashlights swept back and forth in the gloomy forest.

The police are here.

It should be the two women who found the Aoiya Hotel and successfully called the police.

Qin Zhibo certainly cannot appear in front of the police with his stand-in, especially since Conan and Maori Kogoro are likely to be among them.

Now I can only apply oil to the soles of my feet.

"Bin-kun, my brother and I are leaving first. Aren't you going?"

Bin Mike shook his head and shook the video camera in his hand. "I still need to hand this evidence over to the police. Do you want to leave first?"

Qin Zhibo nodded, and Bin Mike also understood.

"Well, I won't tell the police about your presence."

"Meet at the Eight Treasures Restaurant in Yokohama Chinatown tomorrow night?"

Faced with Bin Mike's proposal, Qin Zhibo also had some questions he wanted to know, so he nodded in agreement.

"See you tomorrow night."

"See you there or see you."

After saying that, the "Qin brothers" left in the opposite direction from where the police came.

……

In the forest, Conan finally persuaded Kogoro Mouri to take him into the forest after much persuasion.

While watching the video at the Aoiya Hotel, Conan, Kogoro Mouri and So Yamamura were all shocked by everything in the video.

In the Toushen Forest, someone is actually performing an evil human sacrifice ceremony!

This wasn't the first time Conan had experienced this.

The last time there was an arsonist in Beika Town, Conan and the Junior Detective Team were caught by members of a sect called Zoroastrianism and were almost burned to death.

Using living people as sacrifices is unimaginable in this civilized age where airplanes are everywhere.

What also concerned Conan was that the perspectives of these videos were too professional, as if they were a documentary.

Who is that man with dark brown hair?

Just as Conan was wondering in his heart, a man raised his hands and walked into the police's sight.

Chapter 719 Doorbell Prank

"Don't go any further!"

"Hold your head with your hands! Kneel on the ground!"

The Gunma Prefecture police kept scolding the man, and he had no choice but to stop.

After all, Gunma Prefecture hasn't seen a gang crime involving more than ten people for a long time, so it's understandable that the local police are a little nervous.

When the police and detectives approached with flashlights, they discovered that the man's face looked a bit like a monkey.

monkey?

Conan suddenly had an idea and remembered that the rescued young lady seemed to have mentioned a man who looked like a monkey.

"Uncle police, that..."

Conan expressed his thoughts, and with the help of the man's explanation, the misunderstanding was resolved.

The man introduced himself. His name was Bin Mike and he was a private detective.

Maori Kogoro tapped his forehead with his fingertips and exclaimed in sudden realization, "I remember now! It's that thug whose office is on the second floor of the cinema, right?"

It is obvious that Kogoro Mouri knows this "thug".

Hamamak's eyes became sharp, and the warning in them made Kogoro Mouri immediately shut his silent mouth.

But when he saw the young and beautiful Ran Mouri beside Kogoro Mouri, Hama Mike's eyes lit up and his expression softened again.

Conan, who was standing next to him, noticed this 180-degree turn and immediately gave him a dissatisfied look.

Conan: I should have explained it to you earlier...

……

Next, with Bin Mike's explanation, everyone understood what had happened.

Bin Mike is a private investigator who has been keeping an eye on this gang for a long time.

Today is the time for this group of believers to hold a ceremony. Bin Mike sneaked into the believers alone, replaced one of them, and took a pistol from this person.

In order to save innocent passers-by, Bin Mike led a group of people away and killed them.

"that's it?"

After listening to Hama Mike's story, Maori Kogoro looked doubtful.

Shancun Cao nodded in agreement, "Yes, the two women who were rescued said that there was another person who let them go, and they also said that person went to look for you."

Bin Mike still remembered the agreement with Qin Zhibo. He shook his head and continued to play dumb, "I haven't seen anyone else. I've always been alone..."

"Uncle, aren't you two together?" Conan asked while standing on tiptoe.

"No, I don't know what you are talking about."

Bin Mike knew nothing about anything, and Conan and the others didn't expect to get any information about the other person from him.

……

Soon, everyone arrived at a small island in the center of the swamp.

There were many footprints on the island, but now all that was left was a voodoo believer lying unconscious on the ground.

The police handcuffed the man and sent him down the mountain for medical treatment.

Conan held his chin in his hand, trying to piece together the whole story in his mind.

According to Bin Mike, there were eleven pagans in total, and the leader was called "Doctor".

Before the ceremony began, one of the eleven was taken down by Bin Mike and hidden in the bushes near the swamp.
