Chapter 3203 3215 [Kidnapper]
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya suddenly thought of something: "I understand, it's Matsutake! When Conan taught us to find Matsutake, he said something like 'the criminal has been found' - he called Matsutake the 'criminal', and only a few of us knew about this, so the person represented by Matsutake is the real murderer!"
Conan glanced at Curacao and felt his scalp tingling: "..."
Forget solving the case. He now wanted to pretend to be retarded, fearing that the suspicious lawyer who happened to avoid the anesthetic needle would notice him because of his unusual behavior and words.
Now that he was suddenly pushed out by Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, Conan could only smile innocently and make amends: "Right! This is the method that Brother Jiang Xia taught me on the way here. It's really useful. Thanks to this, we were able to pick so many matsutake mushrooms."
Curacao: “…” This kid always has a sinister look on his face when facing others, but when he mentions Jiang Xia, he smiles like this... Although she has long known about Wu Zuo's ability to win people's hearts, every time she sees it in person, she can't help but feel a chill down her spine.
Others didn't think there was anything wrong with Conan's behavior. After all, when he usually said shocking things that surprised everyone, he would always say that it was Jiang Xia who taught him that.
Therefore, compared to this, the eyes of the others quickly returned to the string of mushrooms: "Since the matsutake is pointing at the murderer, could it be..."
Jiang Xia nodded and looked at the dwarf with eyebrows and beard as hard as a knife: "Although it is blocked by the trees and cannot be seen clearly, but the one who shot and killed the hunter at the edge of the hunting area before should be you, Mr. Zaga."
Before everyone finished being surprised, he looked at Lawyer Ju again and said, "The person who was killed was probably the old client who had an appointment with you but never showed up."
Lawyer Ju was startled: "Oh?"
Huihara Ai didn't know why Jiang Xia said these words in front of a gunman. She grabbed Jiang Xia's clothes and stared nervously at the exposed hunter.
Just then, she noticed that the dwarf frowned, suddenly picked up the shotgun and aimed it towards her.
Huiyuan Ai: “!!”
She tried to push Jiang Xia to the side... but failed, and fell to the ground instead.
Jiang Xia picked up the timid mini scientist, dusted off the dirt and put her aside, saying to her: "The situation was too urgent at the time, we may have made a mistake - after we found the body, Mr. Zaga pointed his gun towards us, probably not to silence us, but to..."
“Ouch!!”
The bushes rustled loudly, and with an unsteady roar, a huge black shadow suddenly broke through the grass and stood up.
——It was actually a huge black bear more than two meters tall!
"Jubei..." He had been saying along the way that only he could kill the dwarf, but now he was holding a gun, with beads of cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
He did not shoot, but just held the shotgun and walked slowly, dealing with the black bear that suddenly appeared.
"What are you daydreaming about! Didn't you brag about yourself just now?" The long-haired hunter came to his senses a little late and hurriedly took off his hunting rifle. However, just as he raised the gun, a huge hand with a whistling sound slapped his gun away.
The shotgun drew an arc, but did not fall into the grass beside it. Instead, it was caught neatly by a hand.
Jiang Xia took a step back to relieve the huge force, hugged the shotgun, then looked down at the twisted gun barrel and was silent for a moment.
When Curacao saw the dangerous man holding the dangerous gun, his heart instinctively skipped a beat.
But when she looked closely and found that the gun barrel had been bent to the point that it was impossible to fire the bullet smoothly, she felt relieved and almost laughed out loud.
The next moment, a sharp gaze shot over here.
"..." Curacao quickly suppressed the corners of his mouth and looked at the black bear in front of him with a serious face.
The black bear didn't look in their direction. Instead, it walked around here and looked at other people.
Kojima Genta stared blankly at the monster that was so big that it crushed him, his legs and feet went weak. As the black bear bared its teeth viciously, he whimpered and couldn't help but crawl back.
The black bear's eyes flashed with ferocity and it rushed towards him.
At this time, there was a gunshot, and the dwarf fired a shot into the air. While shocking the black bear, he whispered, "Don't run away with your back to it! This will only make the bear treat you as prey!"
Suzuki Sonoko, who almost turned around and ran away, froze. She took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and then quietly moved towards Jiang Xia.
The dwarf caught a glimpse of her movements and said, "Yes, that's it! Look into its eyes and slowly move back... Wait, I told you to move back, not forward!"
Suzuki Sonoko trembled: "But..." But for some reason, she always felt that Jiang Xia's place was safer, and Jiang Xia was standing closer to her...
Fortunately, the black bear did not bother with this abnormal human. It gave up on the children running around, slowly turned around, and looked at the dwarf who had been talking.
The dwarf stared at it for a moment, and finally couldn't help but said in pain: "Jubei! Don't you recognize me?"
"?!" Suzuki Sonoko, who had successfully sneaked to Jiangxia, pricked up her ears when she heard this - isn't this a line that you can only see in idol dramas? It's fine if this kind of words suddenly appear in real life...but why did it happen between a man and a bear!
"Could it be that he and that bear..." Suzuki Sonoko whispered to Jiang Xia, "had a past? I remember he seemed to say that Jubei was a female bear."
When Curacao heard this, her movements froze, and an indescribable love story between a man and a bear emerged in her mind... Wait, how is this possible! She was actually led astray by this high school girl. The people around Uzo were indeed not easy to deal with.
But why would the hunter say something like that to a bear?
Curacao finally couldn't help but become curious.
Under the various gazes of the crowd, the dwarf opened his arms and said to Jubei: "Listen to me, you should go back to the depths of the forest! It's autumn now, shouldn't you prepare for hibernation? - If you go back too late, your nest will be occupied by other bears!"
Using this tone of coaxing like a child, the old hunter thought that this black bear, which was as intelligent as a human, would calm down and return to the woods.
However, Jubei remained silent for a moment, but did not leave. Instead, he turned his head to look to the other side and let out a low growl.
"Jubei?" The old hunter looked at this abnormal black bear and felt confused for a moment.
He subconsciously followed the black bear's gaze, and the next moment, his eyes fell on Jiang Xia, and then slowly looked at the other's arms.
...Wait, besides the shotgun, this detective is holding something black in his arms? !
