"Bear······Bear!"

"Don't be afraid! It's still very young. It looks like it's less than one year old...so cute!"

Huiyuan approached the little bear, which was about the same size as her, and looked at it.

"Yes...yes!"

Haiyuan showed a look of love when he saw the little bear, but Mitsuhiko was still a little scared, but he had to be brave in front of Haiyuan.

"But be careful...because the female bear may be nearby..."

"Bang! Bang!"

As soon as Haiyuan finished speaking, two gunshots rang out from between the mountains and fields where they were, shocking the two of them instantly!

"It's...it's the sound of gunshots!"

"Could it be that the cub's mother was hunted by a hunter...ah! No! You can't run that way!"

The little bear seemed to feel something, and ran towards the direction of the gunfire regardless of Haiyuan's obstruction. Haiyuan and Guangyan also chased after him because they were worried about the safety of the little bear. However, before they could run a few steps, a projectile shot from in front of them.

The tree exploded, forcing the two of them to stop.

In front of their sight was a hunter who was pointing his gun at them.

"The hunter is there!"

"He won't regard us as prey, right?! Hey... we are human beings——"

Mitsuhiko shouted, wanting the other party to realize that they were not prey, but human children.

But as soon as Haiyuan turned his eyes, he discovered... lying in the grass beside him was a corpse!

The abdomen of the corpse was covered with blood, and the bullet holes on it were no stranger to Huiyuan!

Haiyuan grabbed Mitsuhiko who was still shouting and ran away.

"Eh? Haihara-san, what's wrong?!"

"Haven't you noticed yet? That hunter is targeting us! He thought we witnessed the murder scene, so he planned to kill and silence us!"

"What!?"

Just like this, Haiyuan and Mitsuhiko ran into the depths of the mountain forest.

On the other side, Conan and Ayumi finally found Genta and were scolding him loudly.

"You are really going too far, Yuantai! Do you know how worried we are?! It's really..."

"Sorry... I wanted to pick more for you, so I walked further and further without realizing it..."

"It's so nerve-wracking..."

"Forget it! Anyway, we came back safely..."

……

On the other side, Qian Yu looked at the big black bear that was forced back by the hunter.

"This bear is really big," Qian Yu sighed, "but..."

"Bang!"

"Well!" Qianyu looked back at the place he arrived at before, "Is there anyone else in that direction...?"

Qianyu thought for a moment, "This bear doesn't seem to attack people."

When he arrived at the place where the bear body was hung, he saw a hunter attacking the black bear. He wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, the hunter who fired the shot was shot dead by an old hunter who suddenly appeared.

At the same time, the bear also left at the signal of the old hunter, "So is this a spiritual bear?"

"Now it seems that there is not much threat, and the feedback from the will is leisure." Qian Yu glanced at the black bear, "It's time to join them."

……

"Hey, Genta, have you seen Qian Yu?"

"Eh? No. What's wrong with Asaha-san? Did you go in to collect matsutake too?"

"It's strange...where did that guy go? I wonder how Haiyuan and the others are doing...Doctor, Haiyuan and Mitsuhiko haven't contacted you yet?"

"I have been calling them since just now, but there is no answer..."

"Really, Qian Yu hasn't been found yet, and now they are gone too!" Conan reluctantly opened the tracking glasses, "Hey, hey, hey! Their medal reaction appeared in the hunting area."

"It's strange, Xiao Ai and the others knew they couldn't go in..."

"Maybe we've discovered Qian Yu's whereabouts... Anyway, find them quickly and go back to the hotel before dark!"

Conan and others climbed through the holes in the barbed wire fence one after another, and all of them entered the hunting area, but they were soon discovered by a hunter.

"Ah! Please wait a moment... What's going on? Why did you bring your children here?"

The hunter is a middle-aged man carrying a shotgun on his left shoulder.

"Because there are three children who lost their way here, we are looking for them."

"Uncle, did you see two boys and a girl?" Ayumi hurriedly stepped forward and asked the hunter uncle.

"No..." But the hunter has no clues.

"Hey! Found it! This is Mitsuhiko's medal!!"

Conan used his glasses to spot the detective badge in the bushes.

"But, I didn't see them?!"

Conan turned his head and found blood stains under another bush, and his expression suddenly changed.

Yuantai also found the footprints of large animals on the ground nearby and was amazed.

"What kind of animal has such big footprints?"

"These should be bear footprints!" the hunter uncle said excitedly.

"What!? Then they were eaten by bears..." When Ayumi heard this, she was so frightened that she burst into tears.

"It shouldn't be... basically bears are not only afraid of people, but they also don't regard people as food." When the hunter uncle saw it, he immediately comforted Ayumi.

"If it's that guy, that's a different matter. If it's that guy who hates humans, those three children are just his meals before hibernation. That one-eyed black bear "Jubei"!"

"I see! So the legend about the big black bear is true? Then my trip here is worthwhile!"

Two more hunters appeared where the doctor and his party were: one was an old man with gray hair, carrying a shotgun on his back; the other was a young man less than thirty years old, carrying a shotgun on his right shoulder. They had gathered here for some unknown reason.

, and also learned about the missing child.

"Don't worry, little sister... I will help your friend get revenge!"

The young hunter said to Bumi with excitement, causing Bumi to cry again.

"What's the point of revenge? I'm not sure whether I was really eaten by a bear..."

The doctor comforted Ayumi while reprimanding the young hunter. Conan and Genta also looked at the young hunter with dissatisfaction.

"I'm so sorry, little sister..." The young hunter seemed to have aroused the crowd's ridicule, and he spread his hands and apologized nonchalantly.
