Upon hearing footsteps outside the cabin, Conan and the others immediately became alert.
"Everyone, quiet down and find somewhere to hide," Conan said in a low voice.
They quickly dispersed, each seeking a secluded corner.
The footsteps grew closer and closer, finally stopping at the door of the wooden house.
"There seems to be no one inside," a deep voice said.
"Search again carefully. The higher-ups said we can't overlook any clues," another voice said.
The door was slowly pushed open, and several men in black cautiously entered the wooden house.
Conan hid behind a dilapidated cabinet, observing the enemy's every move through the cracks.
Ran Mouri hid on the roof beam, her fists clenched tightly.
Lin Yu and Ye Ying hid in the corners of the wooden house, gripping their weapons tightly, ready to strike at any moment.
Ai Haibara hid behind a pile of clutter, her heartbeat sounding exceptionally clear in the silence.
A man in black walked toward the cabinet where Conan was hiding, and every step made Conan's heart race.
Just as the man in black was about to open the cabinet, Ran Mouri jumped down from the beam and kicked him to the ground.
"Go!" Conan shouted.
The crowd rushed out from their hiding places and engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black.
Conan uses his agility to evade enemy attacks and seize the opportunity to counterattack.
Lin Yu's high-tech equipment once again came into play, releasing a powerful electric current that temporarily incapacitated the enemy.
Nightshade, with his outstanding fighting skills, subdued one enemy after another.
Ai Haibara was not to be outdone; she picked up a wooden stick and helped the others fight the enemy.
However, the enemy is numerous and well-trained, and Conan and his friends gradually find themselves in trouble.
"This can't go on, we have to break through!" Nightshade shouted.
Conan looked around and realized that the back window of the cabin was their only way out.
"Everyone, follow me!" Conan shouted.
They fought and retreated, moving towards the back window.
Ran Mouri led the way, blocking the enemy's attacks for everyone.
Finally, they reached the back window and jumped out one by one.
"Don't let them get away!" The enemy was hot on their heels.
Conan and the others ran desperately through the woods, branches and thorns scratching their skin, but they dared not stop for even a moment.
After running for a while, they found themselves facing a cliff.
"What do we do? There's no way out!" Lin Yu said.
“We can’t just sit here and wait to die. Let’s see if there’s anything we can use around us,” Conan said.
Just then, the enemy caught up.
"You can't escape!" the enemy leader said.
Conan had a sudden inspiration and noticed some vines nearby.
“We can use the vines to climb down the cliff,” Conan said.
Without hesitation, everyone grabbed the vines and began to climb down.
Upon seeing this, the enemy opened fire on them.
"Watch out!" Nightshade shouted.
A bullet grazed Ran Mouri's arm, and blood stained her clothes.
"Ran!" Conan called out worriedly.
"I'm fine, get down here!" Ran Mouri said through gritted teeth.
Amidst a hail of bullets, they finally managed to climb to the bottom of the cliff.
"Keep running!" Conan said.
They moved through the valley until they were sure the enemy was not pursuing them, then they stopped.
"Is everyone alright?" Conan asked.
"It's just some superficial injuries, nothing serious," Nightshade said.
Ran Mouri's arm wound was still bleeding, and Ai Haibara quickly bandaged it for her.
"We need to find a safe place to rest for a bit, and then figure out how to deal with what happens next," Conan said.
They continued their journey through the valley, hoping to find a place to rest temporarily...
