Conan and Heiji Hattori completely ignored Professor Agasa's words and remained fully focused on investigating the case.
For them, cases always come first, and everything else has to take a backseat.
"I think the murderer must have used some kind of special mechanism." Hattori Heiji frowned, his fingers gesturing rapidly on the paper.
Conan rested his chin on his hand, his eyes unusually focused. "But the strangest thing is that there were no obvious signs of traps at the scene. The murderer's methods are too clever; they were able to do something so seamless."
The two fell into deep thought, and the only sounds in the room were their occasional discussions.
...
Meanwhile, after saying goodbye to Professor Agasa, Yuzuru strolled leisurely home. As he neared his house, a loud noise from afar caught his attention.
"boom!!"
The deafening roar seemed to tear the entire sky apart.
"Tsk~ What kind of play is this now?"
Yu Shengnan raised an eyebrow, a look of nonchalance on his face, and casually crushed a few wisps of spiritual energy that flew towards him.
He didn't seem to care much, only pausing slightly to glance a couple more times at the billowing black smoke rising into the sky in the distance, before continuing to walk home as if nothing had happened.
Along the way, fire trucks and police cars with sirens blaring sped past us from time to time.
This kind of thing is common in Mika.
There's a small explosion every three days and a big one every five days; there's no need to be alarmed anymore.
With a long, creaking sound, the security gate slowly opened. As soon as Yuzuru stepped into the villa, a rapidly spinning "corn bomb" flew towards him, whistling as it hurtled straight toward him.
He instinctively raised his hand to catch it and looked into the courtyard.
There, the four sisters, Akemi, Ran, Sonoko, and Ai, were sitting neatly in a row in the yard, each holding a small stool and a glass of bubbly soda.
Ahead of them, three forces were locked in a fierce battle.
Bobo, along with his little brother White Dove, launched a fierce attack on the flower bed, while Yingying, who had evolved from the little fox into Eevee, led a group of plants in a fierce counterattack. The scene was intense and fierce, with bullets flying everywhere like raindrops.
Yu Sheng Nan casually beckoned over a small stool, sat down next to the girls, and asked with interest, "Why are they fighting again?"
"Oh, Master Yuzuru, you're back!"
"Nan, good afternoon."
Hearing the sound, the girls, who were engrossed in watching, snapped out of their reverie and turned to look at Yuzuru.
Sonoko excitedly explained, "It was Bobo. Bobo was trying to attack the flower bed while Yingying and we were playing inside, but Yingying was prepared. As soon as the fight started, it came out."
"I see..." Yu Shengnan shook his head with amusement, muttering to himself that none of them were reliable. They just stood by and watched Yingying and Bobo fight without even trying to stop them.
Ignoring Ai's disapproving glare, Yuzuru snatched the soda from her hand, took a big gulp through the straw, and then smiled, watching the show unfold...
A real-life Pokémon battle – such a spectacle is definitely worth watching.
At this moment, the battle in the middle of the yard had entered a fierce stage, and the main force on the flower bed side had changed from plants to Eevee.
"Wave!"
Bobo tactically retreated from mid-air, flapping its wings sharply, unleashing a powerful gust of wind that scattered all the pursuing bullets.
The next second, a flash of white light appeared, and lightning struck, hurtling down like a bolt of lightning at a speed as fast as the wind.
"Eevee!" Eevee shook the soft cream-colored fur on its neck, and as it faced Pidgey charging menacingly at it, a dazzling white light flashed across its body.
It is no longer the little fox that Renbo used to bully; now it is Alzoub.
A flash of lightning, who doesn't know how to do that!
"Popo!!"
"Bu-i-bu-i!!"
Two beams of white light, like two bolts of lightning, collided rapidly back and forth in the air.
Just as Popo activated its Steel Wings, Eevee lashed out with its Iron Tail, showing no sign of backing down. The clash was intense, with sparks flying with each impact, as if the air itself were about to ignite.
"Buyi~"
After a fierce battle, neither side gained an advantage. Eevee gracefully retreated to the ground, slapped its pink paw pads, activated its Substitute, and instantly a group of lively little Eevee appeared on the battlefield.
"Bueebueebueebueebuee..." The little Eevee chirped incessantly, their voices rising and falling.
"Wave!!!"
Faced with a group of noisy Eevee pups, Pidgey made a quick decision, flapping its wings forcefully and unleashing several Air Slashes from above, slicing down the charging Eevee pups one by one.
But just as Pidgey was feeling a little smug and letting its guard down, a sneaky Eevee had cleverly used the plants as cover and quietly slipped out of its sight.
"Coo coo coo coo!"
The little brother, White Dove, who had been unable to get involved and could only cheer from the sidelines, noticed something was wrong. It flapped its wings and anxiously alerted its boss, but it was too late.
A few twinkling little stars locked onto Bobo.
High-speed star, characteristic: guaranteed hit.
"Wave……"
Bobo was knocked down from the air by this powerful attack and crashed heavily to the ground. He was immediately dizzy and couldn't recover for a while.
"Buyi~"
