Chapter 3202 3214 [Attack! ]
Conan: "..." If he could use an excuse like "the shot went astray" to knock Miss Shirai out with an anesthetic needle, then wouldn't he be able to get as many hairs and fingerprints as he wanted?
Even if it is to prevent the Black Organization from paying attention, such items cannot be directly shown or used. But if the true identity of "Miss Shirai" can be found out based on this, and then a secret investigation can be conducted along this line, then there may be a leap forward in tracking the Black Organization.
Thinking of this, Conan walked around the two classmates who were in the way and raised his hand that had just dropped.
He found a position - a position where "Miss Shirai" and the murderer hunter were almost in a straight line, then opened the watch cover, and with excitement in his heart, he pressed the fire button.
The anesthetic needle, carrying some unspeakable expectation, flew towards Curacao as he watched.
However, just before it was about to hit the woman, Miss Shirai was suddenly tripped by a stone, cried out "Ah", and staggered towards the bushes beside her.
The thing in the bush had to retreat after being hit sideways by her. Jiang Xia held the bear in one hand and Huihara Ai in the other, stepped back, and silently watched Curacao roll over and pretend to sit on the ground.
"Jiang Xia! I finally found you!" Suzuki Sonoko was pleasantly surprised. After a few seconds, she realized that something was wrong. "Wait, what are you doing in the bushes?"
Suddenly, something with the aura of an organization hit her head-on. Haibara Ai was still in shock and hadn't recovered yet.
Jiang Xia heard the question, but he turned his head and pretended not to hear it. He looked at Curacao as if nothing had happened: "Ms. Shirai? Are you okay?"
Curacao clapped his hands and stood up as if nothing had happened: "Fortunately, I just tripped accidentally."
…She was worried for the whole afternoon. As expected, Wu Zuo would not let everything end so easily. He must have some killer tricks hidden.
"I don't know what that kid wants to do, but it's definitely not a good thing to aim at me with a crosshair." Curacao was secretly afraid. "It's hard to shoot lethal bullets from something in the shape of a watch, but it can still shoot out anesthetic needles and the like."
"If you sleep near Uzo, you have to use the closet to block possible attacks, and if you faint under his nose..."
She didn't dare to think about that kind of outcome.
"And now that kid dared to fire an unknown weapon at me, someone behind him dared to shoot at me. If this continues, the situation will only get more and more dangerous when it gets dark..."
When Conan was staring at her just now, countless thoughts flashed through Curacao's mind. Under the huge crisis, she suddenly realized: Although Vodka behaved like an honest fool most of the time, he seemed to be right about things related to Uzo.
——It’s like the eye of a typhoon, or the darkest place under a lamp. Sometimes, being around Jiang Xia is actually safe.
When the director is behind the scenes, he can do whatever he wants like God. But if he comes on stage to make a cameo appearance, even if we cannot stop his actions, at least we can see what he is doing.
"I didn't want to contact Jiang Xia before, so I denied the conjecture proposed by Vodka from the bottom of my heart. But now... there is no other way. I can only force him to come on stage to avoid this crisis. As for the future, I will find a way later."
Next to him, Conan was also stunned as he watched this scene.
——He never could have imagined that Curacao could avoid an anesthetic needle that was so thin that it could not be seen unless one got close, without even looking back, and in the process bumped out Jiang Xia and Huihara Ai who were hiding nearby... How on earth did he do that?
"Even I only guessed that Jiang Xia and Huiyuan were hiding nearby, but I didn't know their exact location... Could it be that this seemingly ordinary lawyer is actually better at investigating this than I am?"
"However, she didn't seem to have looked at it, which means she probably didn't find my anesthetic needle... Maybe what happened just now was really just a coincidence?"
Thinking of his risky attack just now, Conan realized it belatedly and broke out in a sweat.
When a primary school student secretly regrets.
Jiang Xia looked at Curacao with great interest, as his reaction was different from before. Then, when the other party showed a look of regret, he retracted his gaze and looked at the three hunters.
The three hunters were also surprised: "Are you the ones these students are looking for? If you are nearby, why don't you come out?"
Jiang Xia turned around and ended this fresh picking activity with regret: "Because among the three of you, there is an Avenger who just killed someone."
Three hunters: “?!”
Jiang Xia put Huihara Ai down and pointed at the string of mushrooms that Conan had thrown away. "These mushrooms actually represent you guys. The small mushrooms scattered on the ground are children, and the bigger mushrooms are adults. As for the three mushrooms strung on sticks... from top to bottom they are Tengu mushrooms, Matsutake mushrooms, and ordinary mushrooms."
"They are actually referring to the hunters with spears behind you three."
Curacao: “…”
So she is not among the three mushrooms, and she will not be killed by someone and skewered on a tree?
...Bai hit Uzo!
An innocent actor who had just decided to pull the director onto the stage in a split second was briefly plunged into deep regret.
“No, not necessarily.” Curacao took a deep breath and thought to himself, “Don’t look at what Uzo said now, but maybe this is just a backup excuse. And if I don’t find him, those terrible scenes I imagined might really happen.”
Thinking of this, she listened to Jiang Xia's words with great attention, trying to find loopholes in her forced explanation.
Suzuki Sonoko didn't think too much about it. She immediately believed Jiang Xia's explanation and speculated curiously: "Among the three mushrooms pierced on the branch, only the Tengu mushroom is highly poisonous - so the person referred to by this Tengu mushroom is the murderer who killed someone?"
Mao Lilan looked at the three mushrooms and suddenly realized something. She followed Suzuki Sonoko's line of thought and said, "This mushroom is tilted to the right, and these two are tilted to the left... That's right! Could the person referred to by the Tengu mushroom be Mr. Genyou who carries the shotgun on his right shoulder?"
The long-haired man was shocked: "Don't talk nonsense! I only hunt prey, never kill people!"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Tengu mushrooms are poisonous, and many people know this - if the criminal discovers the significance of this first, he will most likely destroy the mushrooms."
