Conan Rick's Investigator

"Amitabha……"

"I'm not afraid of being bitten by lice because I have too many of them. Can I have another one?"

Yoko Asanuma: "Well..."

Qin Zhibo clasped his hands together and saluted slightly.

"Thank you."

"Then I'm not welcome..."

Using the same steps, Qin Zhibo took away the other eyeball of the "Snow Girl".

Since the "Snow Girl" had been tied up in advance, her reaction after her two eyeballs were taken out was not very big.

Qin Zhibo looked at the two sky-blue eyeballs in the glass bottle, thinking that if one eyeball could revive one person, then two eyeballs could revive two people.

Although Tsathoggua said that this was the formula for a potion that could "resurrect" the dead, he did not specify the specific conditions.

Qin Zhibo guessed that the resurrection effect of this medicine must be applied to an intact corpse.

If even the flesh and blood of the corpse are not intact, what kind of monster will be resurrected?

Or even if he is "resurrected", can he still be called a living person?

And there is another point that makes Qin Zhibo more worried.

He was not the only one who had been to Enkai and met with Tsathoggua, there was also Uramaru Renya.

As the person who met with Tsathoggua earlier and also controlled the portal that led directly to Enkai, Qin Zhibo was not sure what knowledge Uramaru Renye had obtained from Tsathoggua?

Does it include the elixir of life?

From Elena Miyano's recording, we can know that APTX-4869 has several generations of predecessors, each generation has slightly different effects and has been taken by different people.

What Karasuma Renya took should be the original version.

Considering the technological limitations of that era, it is almost unimaginable that such a drug was developed by humans.

But in modern times, as long as we study and analyze the active ingredients in different materials, we can get a new "prescription" composed of modern chemical formulas.

……

Qin Zhibo got what he wanted. As promised, he wrapped Asanuma Yoko's body with a [shroud] and then broke some relatively dry spruce branches from nearby to surround her body.

He took out a nuclear lighter and ignited it for a while before finally lighting the "ice lump".

"Amitabha……"

Qin Zhibo chanted the Buddha's name, and although the conditions were simple, it could be considered as a way to help him attain nirvana.

Although Yoko Asanuma had the intention to kill during her lifetime, she deserved to end up like this.

But at least the snow water on her body once saved the cursed Okino Yoko, and this time she may be able to save Akai Shuichi. Two lives were saved because of her, so her life was not in vain.

I hope to be a good person in my next life.

The flames grew more intense, and the human-shaped shadow within them gradually shriveled.

But at this time, the black flame core gradually turned into light blue, and this blue quickly extended to the inner and outer flames, like a ball of ghost fire.

"Ok?"

Qin Zhibo was wondering, thinking that some special chemical substance in Yoko Asanuma's body was burning, causing her to become like this.

But suddenly, there was a strong wind and snowflakes fell from the clear sky.

Looking into the distance, I saw a dark cloud spreading rapidly on the distant horizon.

Qin Zhibo immediately thought of his previous experience and was shocked.

"Again?"

Without waiting for the corpse to burn out, Qin Zhibo quickly packed up his things and ran down the mountain. His life was more important.

The last time I was able to escape successfully, it was because it seemed as if there was some kind of power that saved me from nowhere.

But I can't expect to be so lucky every time.

Qin Zhibo ran down the mountain as fast as he could. Looking back, he saw that the dark clouds that were just on the horizon had spread to the top of the mountain where the "Snow Girl" was.

A beast-like roar came from the top of the mountain, mixing with the howling of the wind.

The surrounding environment suddenly became bitterly cold, and ordinary ski clothes were simply unable to withstand the sudden arrival of the icy polar region.

Qin Zhibo didn't dare to delay. Although his body was a little frozen, he still moved towards the town with his tenacious willpower.

After a while, a lot of snow piled up on his body. From a distance, it seemed as if Qin Zhibo himself was a "snow monster".

In the wind and snow, he wrapped his arms tightly around his body, hunched his neck as much as possible, and every step he took was extremely difficult.

At this moment, the gray-white dark clouds in the sky suddenly changed color and turned into a sulfur-colored cloud.

The cloud gradually condensed into an Indian face.

The whirlwind mixed with snowflakes continued to howl, and the human face seemed to be engraved on the surging waves, angry and distorted.

However, Qin Zhibo was now struggling to move. The fierce wind and snow made it difficult for him to even raise his head. He had no time to look up at all.

The evil face in the sky roared loudly towards the ground, but Qin Zhibo ignored it and walked forward unswervingly.

Stopping would definitely mean death.

Even if I could get a little closer...

Qin Zhibo was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He let the storm rage around him without even looking up to see what was happening in the sky.

The Indian face in the sky had been shouting for quite some time, and the roar and the distortion of the face had subsided a little.

Maybe He was also a little puzzled.

Why doesn't this grandson look up?

But He really didn't dare to do anything to the tiny human on the ground.

After all, the last time He was about to take action, He was stopped by a greater existence.

Then, the Indian face in the sky gradually calmed down, turned into a sulfur-colored cloud, and disappeared into the sky.

As the dark clouds dispersed, the wind and snow subsided, and the sky turned clear, as if everything that had just happened was just a small episode.

Qin Zhibo's frozen body felt waves of warmth, and his strength relaxed slightly. He fell to his knees with a thud.

saved……

……

The weather cleared up again and it didn't take Qin Zhibo long to return to town.

When we arrived at the winter clothing rental area, we saw quite a few tourists who had come to take shelter, all discussing the "evil wind" that had suddenly blown up.

Only then did Qin Zhibo realize that there was no snow on the mountain where the ski resort was located, but there was just a strong wind.

Now Qin Zhibo was certain that it must have been Itakuya who had visited just now.

Although the specific process is not certain, Yoko Asanuma is a woman who has been "favored" by Itakuya, so there must be some connection between the two.

However, this time Itakuya did not catch himself and lift him into the sky, which was quite decent.

But Qin Zhibo didn't dare to stay any longer. He warmed himself by the fire, returned his winter clothes, and quickly drove away.

……

It was already past 7pm when I returned to the office in Tokyo.

Qin Zhibo put the two "Snow Girl" eyeballs he had taken into the refrigerator on the third floor for cold storage.

So far, all that’s missing is the “venom gland of the puffer fish”.

All we have to do is gather all the materials and wait for Koizumi Akako to return to make the potion.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo called Koizumi Hongzi and asked when he could return home.

Koizumi Hongzi replied somewhat unhappily, "I have already received the luggage from Benniu and can return home at any time, but Hei Yu doesn't want to go back."

"Why?" Qin Zhibo was puzzled.

"I heard he wants to sleep well here. If he can't have that dream, he can even use the real channel..."

"What did you tell him? Was it the Dreamland?"

After being reminded by Koizumi Hongzi, Qin Zhibo remembered that Kuroba Kaito might have planned to use the space channel in New York to forcibly enter the dreamland if he could not become the dreamer, regardless of his own safety.

This silly child, of course Japan also has a space channel, otherwise how did Matsumoto Ryohei enter the dreamland?

Are you going to the United States on a plane with a dog face?

"Forget it, I'll call him and try to persuade him."

Qin Zhibo called Kuroba Kaito again, but the person who answered the phone was Terai Kōnosuke.

After asking, I found out that Kuroba Kaito had taken sleeping pills and had just fallen asleep.

Qin Zhibo looked up at the time and calculated the time in New York. It was only 7 o'clock in the morning, which was just the right time to get up.

Only then did Terai Kōnosuke confess that in order to dream of the stairs leading to the dreamland as soon as possible, Kuroba Kaito had been sleeping almost 24 hours a day for the past two days and climbing the stairs when he was awake.

"Are you crazy? Sleeping like this will kill you!"

"Hurry up and stop letting him sleep like this. Return home immediately. Japan also has a space channel."

Qin Zhibo couldn't believe that Kuroba Kaito would try so hard to see his father. He was also quite filial.

After dealing with these things, Qin Zhibo felt a little tired. His whole body ached and he just wanted to crawl into bed and have a good sleep.

But before going to bed, he planned to draw a lottery.

The previous tasks accumulated a total of 14 lottery opportunities, but I never wanted to use them.

Now the mall items in the system are no longer refreshed, so there is no need to save them.

See what goodies you can get from this opportunity.

Try it once and give it a try.

[Lottery drawing...]

【Congratulations, you won the bottle opener! 】

When this word appeared on the system, Qin Zhibo could hardly believe it.

Bottle opener?

So outrageous?

Qin Zhibo materialized the new [Bottle Opener] in the prop column in his hand and studied it carefully.

After researching, I was surprised to find that...

This is a real bottle opener!

This ordinary wine bottle opener is made of stainless steel with a red hard plastic handle. It is durable and guaranteed to last a lifetime!

Qin Zhibo couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. He didn't expect that after accumulating lottery tickets for such a long time, he could still win such an ordinary daily necessity.

I just decided to quit drinking due to health reasons, and now you’re selling me a bottle opener?

You did it on purpose!

But the good news about this lottery is that there won’t be any props worse than this. Even if they are worse, they will be daily necessities similar to this.

Putting the [Bottle Opener] back into the prop column, Qin Zhibo conducted another lottery.

[Lottery drawing...]

【Congratulations, you won the mobile phone】

cell phone?

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised. Even technological products could be taken out?

Concrete...

Qin Zhibo stretched out his right hand, and the outline of a rectangular cube machine slowly appeared.

When the entire phone appeared, Qin Zhibo was stunned.

This……
