Chapter 8 The Bandaged Man Murder Case at the Mountain Villa (Part 1)



"Doctor, is the thing I asked you to make done yet?"

"It's done, it's done. Here you go." As Professor Agasa spoke, he took several items out of his invention room and handed them to Kouyu, who was sitting on the sofa.

Guangyou is experienced and capable, but his ability is limited by his physical limitations.

If he were given an adult body, he could unleash his full potential, and because he wouldn't have any hidden injuries or age-related physical decline, his strength could even surpass his peak level from back then.

Guangyou used the money he received to buy some essential items, such as: Beretta 92F, several bulletproof vests, some first aid hemostatic cotton, bandages, some chemicals, antidotes, etc.

As for why I bought the Beretta 92F instead of a pistol like the Desert Eagle, it's because recoil inherent in any gun limits its user.

The Desert Eagle is indeed powerful and stylish, a weapon that Guangyou really liked in his previous life. He even commissioned a weapon dealer to create a limited edition version with a pill pattern engraved on it.

However, the high damage also brings great recoil. With Guangyou's current physique, he can only fire one shot at most, and after cutting the gun, Guangyou's hand will probably be broken.

Unfortunately, things have been quite chaotic in Tokyo lately, and black market traders are finding it taking longer than usual to bypass official checks, which is why the equipment that Guangyou ordered hasn't arrived yet.

Oh, by the way, let me introduce the little things that Professor Agasa made for Kōsuke, which I mentioned at the beginning.

The first one is a wristband, which is modeled after Conan's shoes. You can increase Kyou's power by using a button on the wristband.

The second one is similar to Conan's shoes, but at Kosuke's request, Professor Agasa made some minor modifications to Kosuke's shoes, making them more powerful than Conan's shoes and adding a solar charging function to avoid the embarrassing situation of the shoes running out of power.

After collecting his belongings and returning to the agency, Kōyū opened the door to find Conan and Ran preparing to leave.

Kōyū then asked, "Ran-neechan, where are you and Conan going? Are you going to play? Can I come along?"

Xiaolan smiled and said, "Sure, Yuanzi invited us to her sister's class reunion at one of her villas. If you want to come, you can come along."

The group left and headed towards their destination. Their destination was in the mountains; Ran was leading the way with the address, while Conan and Mitsuyu followed behind, chatting.

The three of them had been walking in the woods for a long time. Xiaolan said in a daze, "That's strange, I remember it being in this area, right?"

"Have we gone the wrong way?" Conan asked Ran.

Xiaolan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she smiled awkwardly, saying, "How could I have taken the wrong road? But, maybe I took a different route."

Kōyū and Conan exchanged a glance, exasperated, and said, "They're probably lost!"

Xiaolan, feeling embarrassed, hurriedly explained, "I didn't get lost! I just took a different route."

Xiaolan's confidence was clearly lacking when she said this, but she was lucky. Not long after she finished speaking, she saw a villa. "Well, I told you I hadn't gone to the wrong place!"

The group looked excitedly at the villa across the street. Guangyou thought to himself: Finally, we can rest and have something to eat!

At that moment, the group saw a person dressed in strange clothes on the suspension bridge.

The person sensed someone behind them and turned around to look.

What's chilling is that the head was completely wrapped in bandages, with only the eyes showing, which exuded a cold aura.

Everyone was startled, and the strange man ran away as soon as he saw people.

Guangyou felt something was familiar, and suddenly remembered that it was called something like "The Mountain Villa Bandaged Man Murder Case".

However, I can't remember the plot at all. This episode was actually something I watched when I was a child in my previous life, and it was definitely a childhood trauma, so I didn't dare to watch it.

Guangyou tugged at the two remaining people who were still in shock.

The group walked to the entrance of the villa.

Sonoko opened the door and saw Conan with a somewhat helpless expression. "Ran, you still brought him after all. Hey, Conan, don't you feel embarrassed at all?"

Conan was speechless. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Sonoko say, "Kuyuki, you're here too! Sonoko-neechan has prepared some delicious things for you. I'll get them for you later!"

Conan turned his head and saw Sonoko patting Kousuke's head.

Guangyou seemed to see the black lines on Conan's head and thought to himself: Sure enough, good looks are the most important thing.

Then, Sonoko explained that she invited Ran here so that they could see if they could meet any nice boys.

Xiaolan waved her hand: "Oh, I think we don't need to!"

Sonoko pointed at Ran and said with a disappointed look, "Are you still thinking about Shinichi, who hasn't appeared in so long?!"

Ran and Conan blushed instantly, and Ran quickly explained, "No, Sonoko, no!" Although this sounded completely unbelievable, Sonoko didn't pursue the matter further.

Kōyū poked Conan's cheek and whispered in his ear, "Well~ Sonoko-neechan said, why are you blushing, Shinichi-nii? Is it because...?"

Kōyū gave a teasing smile: "So, you like Ran-neechan, right?"

Conan's face was already red enough, but after hearing this, it seemed to turn even redder, and he even felt steam rising from his head. He hurriedly pushed Mitsuyu away and said, "N-no, that's not true!"
