Chapter 425 - Arrest; Sakata's Anomaly
Numabuchi Kiichiro's thin legs seemed to contain endless power, and his bent legs stretched out in an instant, driving his body forward quickly.
"!!!" Qian Yu was horrified.
"Get out of the way!" Putting the knife on his abdomen with both hands, Numabuchi Kiichiro roared and rushed towards the door - Qianyu and Haibara Ai standing at the door were the first to bear the brunt.
The seamless umbrella can handle knives, but now it has been folded up after entering the house and cannot be re-opened before Kiichiro Numabuchi rushes into the irretrievable distance.
If you avoid it, it will allow Kiichiro Numabuchi to escape, but the crossbow skill of the Wuhen Umbrella should be able to keep Kiichiro Numabuchi before he escapes.
The main question is, can it be avoided? Of course, Qianyu definitely doesn't have to worry about this problem, but Haihara Ai beside him doesn't have an auxiliary unit, so she probably won't be able to avoid it!
Without enough time to consider other options, Qianyu tilted his center of gravity to Huiyuan Ai's side and pushed Huiyuan Ai aside.
In the process, he discovered that he really had no choice other than this, because Haibara Ai hadn't even reacted yet, and the remaining time was far from enough for her to avoid Numabuchi Kiichiro's blade.
.
The person in front of the blade changed from Huihara Ai who was caught off guard to Qian Yu.
"Crack!" The tip of the knife pierced Qian Yu's heart, making a strange sound, and Qian Yu was pushed up by the knife as if he had been punched hard, drawing a subtle trajectory in mid-air.
Seeing such a scene that was not in line with his expectations, Numabuchi Kiichiro was a little stunned. Then, his shock froze on his face.
A crossbow arrow penetrated deeply into his thigh muscle.
"Ah!" As a burst of severe pain came, Numabuchi Kiichiro screamed and fell to the ground, and the knife in his hand flew out.
In sharp contrast to the embarrassed Numabuchi Kiichiro, Chiba, who was clearly stabbed by a knife with such force that he was knocked away, stood firmly on the ground after taking a buffering position.
"Ju, are you okay?" Haiyuan Ai finally recovered from his surprise and hurriedly ran to Qian Yu's side. "Did you get stabbed just now? Do you need to call an ambulance?"
"Uh..." Qianyu stood up and gave Haiyuan Ai a smile. "It was stabbed, but it's not a big problem."
"Isn't it a big problem if you get stabbed?" Saying this, Hui Yuan Ai looked at Qian Yu's heart where she saw just now being stabbed.
The clothes were still clean and there were no traces of bleeding.
"Huh?" Haiyuan Ai looked at Qian Yu's clothes in surprise. "You..."
"Do you think I'm not prepared?" Qianyu said with a smile. "Look -"
Saying this, Qianyu tapped his heart - there was a sound of hard objects hitting hard objects.
Qianyu's auxiliary unit is installed on his chest, and as a next-generation product, even small-caliber bullets are within the range that the working components of the auxiliary unit can withstand, let alone a mere knife. (This is also after being stabbed by a knife.
The reason why Qian Yu was hit by a punch was because the auxiliary unit absorbed the penetration force, so the knife's piercing ability became a blunt weapon-like pushing ability)
"..." A relieved expression with a bit of surprise appeared on Haiyuan Ai's face. "That's good, it scared me to death..."
"I was almost scared to death," Qian Yu smiled bitterly. "This guy... I didn't expect him to be such a crazy guy."
When the two of them looked in the direction of Kiichiro Numabuchi, they found a police officer angrily putting shackles on Numabuchiro's ankles. "You lunatic, it seems you won't behave unless I teach you a lesson."
Really?"
"Sure enough, you know him better," Qianyu sighed. "I just thought he must have been injured when he fell, but in the end I was completely unprepared."
"He might have been injured originally," Haihara Ai replied. "But after being injected with some experimental drugs, his body became much stronger, so much so that it even exceeded our expectations and even escaped from our experimental product base.
It was impossible for such a height to pose any risk to Kiichiro Numabuchi's bone structure during the tests we conducted at the time."
"Kid," Officer Otaki also jumped down and ran to Qianyu's side. "Are you okay?"
"It's okay," Qian Yu shook his head. "The key is to catch this guy back quickly, otherwise the night will be long and we will have many dreams."
The matter here is finally over, but I don't know what the situation is like with Detective Mori.
But I didn't expect that this time I would actually have the chance to see the sleeping Kogoro's reasoning while he was awake.
…………
"What, you want to see me?" After hearing Qianyu's words, Mouri Kogoro's eyes widened, and then he glanced at Fujiwara in front of him. "You... should be the people who discovered Miss Sumie Okazaki, right? What's the matter? I
Please explain it in advance. If you want to sign, wait until the case is over."
"There are some clues that I want to discuss with you privately. I also hope that the famous detective Mr. Mouri Kogoro will allow us to be willful~" Hotaru, who was beside Fujiwara, suddenly spoke. "We have found some new clues about this case, so we want to discuss it with you.
Let’s communicate.”
"This, this beautiful lady," Mouri Kogoro showed a rather shaken expression after seeing Hotaru. "You...you want to discuss it with me in private?"
"Yes~" Firefly smiled. "It's a very important matter, so I hope you can take time out of your busy schedule."
"I am willing, I am very willing!" Mouri Kogoro nodded quickly. "As a detective, it is my duty to obtain any clues that can be obtained!"
…
"This..." As Hotaru narrated, Mouri Kogoro's expression gradually calmed down from his previous expression of enjoying the conversation with the beautiful girl, and finally his expression became very serious. "Miss, are you sure that these are true?"
"It's absolutely true," Hotaru nodded. "Officer Sakata's behavior is really strange."
"But in any case, this is a very sensitive topic, so we must handle it carefully," Mouri Kogoro said solemnly. "And this matter must not be discovered by people in the police system, otherwise all efforts may be wasted.
.”
Saying this, Mouri Kogoro suddenly thought of something and dialed a phone number.
"Conan, get over here and be alone, I don't want to see anyone else!"
…
"That is to say, you didn't see Miss Okazaki on the way here, right?" Mouri Kogoro asked after listening to Conan's description of how he and Hattori Heiji jumped out of the car and rushed here. "Then...
During this process, have you not seen Officer Sakata?"
"No," Conan shook his head, and then suddenly felt something was wrong. "Uncle, what happened?"
"It's okay." Mouri Kogoro waved his hand. "You can go."
"Uncle, what happened?" Conan asked again.
"..." Mouri Kogoro's face twitched, but he still maintained a calm attitude. "Leave quickly."
"Uncle?" Conan asked again. "Something must have happened, right?"
"Didn't you hear? Get out of here!" Mouri Kogoro finally couldn't bear it anymore and roared loudly.
"Okay, okay!" Conan was startled and ran away quickly.
"Sorry, I showed my ungraceful side in front of Miss Hotaru. This child is really naughty..." Seeing Conan disappear into the distance, Mouri Kogoro immediately expressed his apology to Hotaru, who was covering his mouth and smiling softly.
"It doesn't matter," Hotaru's eyes narrowed into a crescent shape. "Then, I'll leave this matter to Detective Mori."
