Chapter 3194 3206 [The Missing Huiyuan Ai]
What popped out from the bushes was a bear's head!
However, unlike the huge black bears that we usually imagine, the head of the bear in front of us is obviously much smaller.
It looked up at the two uninvited guests in front of it, its front paws resting on the hard branches of the bush, its clear big eyes revealing a hint of innocence that showed it was ignorant of the world.
"So small." After being surprised, Huiyuan Ai couldn't help but be touched by the cuteness of this mini black bear. She approached carefully and squatted down to be the same height as the little bear. "It should be a child less than one year old. It's so cute."
Jiang Xia held down the mermaid who wanted to come over to scare the little bear, and nodded: "Indeed."
Huiyuan Ai wanted to reach out and touch the little bear's head, but before she raised her hand, she looked around vigilantly: Since the little bear was here, then it stands to reason that the mother bear should not be far away. If there really was a large black bear nearby...
BANG! !
A gunshot suddenly came from a distance.
Huihara Ai shuddered and turned back alertly: "Could it be that someone is hunting the mother bear?"
The little bear in front of her was also frightened by the gunshot, but instead of running away, it suddenly ran in the direction of the gunshot.
Haibara Ai tried to stop it but failed. She was worried that the little bear would also be hunted down, so she quickly chased after it and tried to stop it.
After running about ten meters, there was another bang.
Someone fired a shot in this direction, and a deep bullet hole appeared on the tree trunk less than two meters to her side, and wood chips flew everywhere.
Haibara Ai hurriedly stopped and belatedly remembered the news reports about hunters accidentally killing other hunters.
The woods here were denser than outside, and the light was dimmer. She waved at the hunter from a distance, and was about to remind him that there were people here, but before she could say anything, Jiang Xia suddenly patted her shoulder and pointed to the ground beside her.
"Hmm?" Haibara Ai subconsciously followed his direction and looked down. The next moment, she was startled for the third time since she came here.
——Less than three meters to his side, a man dressed as a hunter was lying straight on the ground.
His eyes were wide open, his expression was in pain, and there was a large pool of blood on his abdomen... He looked obviously dead.
"It's a gunshot wound." Huiyuan Ai quickly determined it. Combining the current situation, her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she had some guesses, "Oh no!"
Without thinking too much, she grabbed Jiang Xia and hid in the dense bushes nearby.
Almost at the same time, gunshots rang out again, passing by them very close.
Huihara Ai felt her scalp tingle when she heard the familiar vibration of gunpowder. She ran wildly with Jiang Xia while gritting her teeth and said, "That hunter really wanted to kill us - the dead man on the ground must have been killed by him, because we saw the scene, and he wanted to kill us to silence us!"
"Really?" Jiang Xia ran a few steps after her. He looked down at the neighbor's short legs moving so fast that he easily picked him up. "In that case, let's get out of the way first."
…
The other side.
Conan and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya successfully found two high school girls who were lost in the barbed wire.
After bringing them back to the gathering point, Conan was angry but could not say anything for a while, and finally he could only say dryly: "You guys... this is too dangerous!"
"What's so dangerous about this?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at her own harvest, then at the matsutake mushrooms of the children, and nodded with satisfaction, "I know my limits!"
Conan finally couldn't help it: "You have no sense of propriety at all!" - It would be fine if he just acted foolishly by himself, but he actually brought Xiaolan along with him. What if he was accidentally hit by a hunter with poor eyesight!
"Hey, why are you talking about this now?" Dr. Agasa poked Conan quietly, reminding him to keep his childish image, while trying to smooth things over, "Just come back safely."
Conan sighed in frustration and turned the page. He looked around: "Where are Jiang Xia and Huiyuan? Why haven't they come back yet?"
Dr. Agasa scratched his head: "I don't know, maybe they are concentrating on looking for someone. They left in such a hurry just now that they didn't hear the meeting time we agreed on. If we wait a little longer, they may come back."
"..." Conan was speechless, and he always had a bad premonition, "Is it their turn to disappear this time?"
Yoshida Ayumi looked at the hunting area separated by barbed wire with concern, and suddenly remembered something, her eyes lit up: "Oh, right! Although I can't get through the phone, Ai has a detective badge on her! Can I use that to notify her?"
Dr. Agasa looked guilty: "But last time my lab table exploded, it affected Ai's windbreaker on the back of the chair. Her badge had a malfunction and she couldn't communicate. It hasn't been repaired yet..."
"Then the positioning function should still be usable." Conan pressed his glasses, and soon, the multi-functional lenses showed the location of Haibara Ai's badge.
"Hmm?" Conan adjusted the camera back and forth, and compared it with the scene in front of him. After a moment, he finally confirmed a fact, and his eyes twitched slightly: "The signal of Huiyuan's badge is actually inside the hunting area. Why did she and Jiang Xia run to such a dangerous place?"
Dr. Agasa scratched his head and breathed a sigh of relief: "But as long as we know the location, things will be easy - let's go and meet them. As long as they know Xiaolan and Sonoko are back, they will stop looking for them."
Although there is a vague sense of déjà vu of Calabash Brothers saving his grandfather, this is indeed the fastest and most labor-saving method now.
Thinking of this, the group climbed over the iron net with great effort and prepared to go to the hunting area to find Jiang Xia and Huihara Ai.
…
Nearly a hundred meters away.
Edge of hunting area.
Curacao got out of the car, looked down at his brightly colored vest, and patted it with some discomfort.
As a member of an organization that has been walking in the dark for a long time, whether it is for sneaking at night or to maintain a low presence during the day, she always wears low-key black clothes for a long time.
But now, when she put on such bright clothes, she always had a sense of crisis as if she was tied to a target and became the bull's eye, and she didn't feel comfortable all over.
"Haha, Lawyer Shirai doesn't go hunting often, does he?"
An old lawyer in his sixties also got out of the car. He smiled and said to the younger lawyer, "Whether it's fishing or hunting, when participating in outdoor activities, brightly colored clothing can often save lives. My law firm often has similar team-building activities. You'll get used to it in the future."
Curacao looked at him and smiled politely: "..." Unfortunately, there is no future. When I get the documents you hid, you can go to paradise peacefully.
