Scarlet Night 8
Where did those children go? Furiya Rei quickened his pace. The corridor was already covered with dust, and the footprints of children were fresh and clear. He frowned and came to the door of the frozen section room. After that casual complaint, Julian left on his own. Bourbon watched him go away before coming in to look for the children who were said to have entered before.
What does he mean? What did Huiren Society leave behind in this abandoned hospital? Could it be related to mezcal? If you knew it earlier, why didn't you recycle it in advance?
Questions popped up one after another. Just as Fūya Rei put his hand on the door handle and was about to scold the little kids who entered the dangerous building as an adult, an unexpected scream almost pierced his eardrums.
“Aaaaaaaaaaa——”
The scream of the little girl made him push the door open instantly, "What happened?!" The anxious Fūtani Rei almost took the door down. He looked around the room. A little girl with a headband was hugging a brown-haired girl tightly. The latter tried to comfort her but her body was shaking. It seemed that the scream came from one of them. A boy who looked like a rice ball was slumped on the floor in the middle of the room, and a boy as thin as a bamboo pole was standing dully next to his friend. Following their line of sight, a boy in a blue suit seemed to be looking at something? It's hard to see from this angle. "Are you injured?" The blond young man stepped forward to look at the children. The brown-haired girl lowered her head even more, as if she was seriously frightened. "Don't be nervous. If you have anything, you can talk to an adult--"
"Conan, the police said they will be here soon!" The voice of the bamboo-like boy interrupted Rei Furuya's attention. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw the child called "Conan". He looked familiar... This thought flashed through his mind, but his attention was soon attracted by more important things.
What is this... Looking at what Conan was looking at, Furuya Rei frowned deeply. This situation is really troublesome...
Most of the mottled wall paint had fallen off, revealing the steel bars inside the wall - and six bodies. They had shrunk due to loss of moisture, and their skin had taken on a purple-red color. However, they could still be identified by the limbs and the direction of their bones. They were human corpses.
"Why did it become like this..." Furiya Ling heard Conan's mumbling, "Based on the ventilation conditions here, it is impossible for a corpse to be in this state, and why is it this color..."
Are all kids like this nowadays? Furiya Rei knew that this was the time for him to take action. He took a big step and took the little detective away. "This is not something that children should watch." He glanced at the other children who had not yet recovered and sighed in his heart about the differences between people. "Stay here honestly."
"Big brother, who are you?" Edogawa Conan struggled in vain, and could only give up and choose to squeeze in with the other members of the Junior Detective League. He didn't feel any danger from Furuya Rei yet, so he raised his innocent smile and asked, "Why did you come here?"
"Me?" Having seen clearly what the kid did in front of the corpse, Furuya Rei raised his eyebrows. "My name is Amuro Toru."
"He's a private investigator."
