The torch hit the Voodoo believer's back, causing scattered sparks to pop out.
The unknown believer screamed in pain and fell to the ground rolling around, causing chaos at the ceremony.
The singing, which was all about acting, suddenly turned into a real hard job, and Kinoshita Tomonori had to stop singing to see what was going on.
"What are you doing?"
Kinoshita Satoshi angrily yelled at those who attacked other believers with torches.
The person opposite slowly took off the mask on his hand, revealing a monkey face.
It's not that this is a monkey, but the hair on the temples on this face is a bit thick, and the hair at the bangs is sticking up to the sky, a bit like Sun Wukong.
Plus his hair is brown, making him look like a monkey.
"It's you!"
When Kinoshita Tomono saw this person, his face was startled, and he seemed to know the identity of this person.
Qin Zhibo looked at the head of this monkey-like man and saw some basic identity information.
Mike Bin, male, 32 years old, private detective, social credit 3700.
This name is very distinctive, and Qin Zhibo immediately thinks of the driver's license found in the empty room of Kuiwu Hotel.
It turns out that the unoccupied room belongs to this guy.
This person's identity was a private detective, which Qin Zhibo didn't expect.
The unexpected situation added variables to the ceremony.
With the appearance of Hamaike, the peak of the ceremony came to an abrupt end, and the strange white mist emerging from the forest slowly retreated as the singing stopped.
The Voodoo believers took off their veils one after another and glared at the "villain" who interrupted the ceremony.
Qin Zhibo also took advantage of this opportunity and quickly recorded the faces of each member with the video recorder on his hand, leaving no one behind.
"Catch him"
Kinoshita Tomonori gave the order, and the Voodoo believers held torches and sharp knives and quickly dispersed in formation.
Faced with the encirclement of Voodoo believers, Hamak was not in a hurry, and put his hands directly into his pockets with a slight smile.
Swish——
Before the Voodoo believers could pounce on him, Hamak suddenly took out a pistol from his pocket, loaded the gun, and pointed the black muzzle at the intruder.
"Don't move. I just want to save people. I don't want to hurt you."
Hamak didn't want to shoot. After all, if he fired, there would be a lot of trouble later.
Seeing the pistol, these Voodoo believers who used cold weapons also felt fear and did not dare to step forward.
But one of the figures was rather unique, charging directly towards Hamak alone.
Qin Zhibo, who was in the invisible state, took a closer look and saw that it was a stiff face with dyed yellow hair. He was the deceased in the previous arcade case, the yellow-haired man.
After he was killed by "Lucas Cupido" using tetrodotoxin, his body disappeared inexplicably while being transported to the Metropolitan Police Department for identification, and the police have not been able to find it so far.
Seeing someone rushing toward him without fear of bullets, Hamak looked shocked and shot the yellow-haired man in the shoulder.
Pia——
This pistol was not a toy model to scare people. Bullets ejected from the muzzle, leaving a bloody splash on the yellow-haired man's shoulder.
However, the yellow-haired man in front of him seemed to be incapable of feeling pain, and a shot hit could not even cause his body to falter.
"What?!"
Pia——Pia——Pia——
Three more shots were fired, and the bullets hit the yellow-haired man's right shoulder, left thigh, and abdomen respectively, but they still couldn't stop the yellow-haired man.
"hateful!"
Seeing that the pistol was useless, Hammac cursed secretly, turned around and ran up the dirt path, and escaped into the Forest of Gods outside the black swamp.
"Chase!"
Kinoshita Tomonori shouted loudly, and the remaining Voodoo believers immediately chased into the forest.
In a dark corner of the woods, Toru Amuro was wearing a mask and carefully lurking in the bushes.
At this time, he was following a person he had met once - Matsumoto Ryohei.
When Toru Amuro made a sandwich for Qin Zhibo for the first time, Matsumoto Ryohei also brought his own special sandwich, and the two even competed over whose sandwich was more delicious.
At that time, Toru Amuro didn't have any other special judgment except that he thought Matsumoto Ryohei was very good at cooking.
Until nightfall today, Toru Amuro, who had been lurking in the Togami Forest all day, accidentally saw a Ford van driving into the forest, and the person who got out of the car was Matsumoto Ryohei.
At the critical moment when Qin Zhibo was about to kill Kinoshita Tomonori, the person who appeared on the scene was actually the museum director who Qin Zhibo knew, which surprised Toru Amuro.
An art museum director appeared in the deep mountains and forests late at night, and he happened to be acquainted with Qin Zhibo.
It's really suspicious.
So Toru Amuro put on the mask used to hide his identity and quietly followed Matsumoto Ryohei all the way.
Along the way, Matsumoto Ryohei had no specific route and just wandered around in the woods with a flashlight.
Whenever he encounters leftover garbage from human camping, broken tents, etc., Matsumoto Ryohei will look around carefully.
Are you looking for Kinoshita Tomonori?
But wouldn't it be possible to alert the enemy by approaching him openly with a flashlight?
Matsumoto Ryohei's behavior made Toru Amuro more and more confused, and the more confused he became, the more curious he became.
He looked like he was looking for something in the forest, but it didn't look like he was looking for Kinoshita Tomonori, but rather something dead.
Is he a "scavenger"?
The so-called scavengers are those who pick up rags. This is a famous suicide holy place. If you are lucky, you may be able to pick up the good things left by the suicide in this world.
Of course, some scavenging is forced by life, but this is a purely personal hobby for this art museum director.
While Toru Amuro was tirelessly following Matsumoto Ryohei, a gunshot was suddenly heard in the silent woods.
pia——
The sound of gunfire echoed in the woods, and before it completely dissipated, three more gunshots were heard.
Realizing that something was wrong, Toru Amuro suddenly raised his head to determine the direction from which the gunfire came.
It is deeper into the forest of the head god.
Something happened there!
The situation was urgent, and Tohru Amuro immediately decided to abandon the museum director in front of him and rush towards the direction of the gunfire.
The moment Toru Amuro ran away in a hurry, his calves moved the bushes next to him, making a slight rustling sound.
Matsumoto Ryohei, who was ten meters away, twitched his ears slightly and turned his head to look in the direction of the trees.
A humanoid figure was quickly moving away from him.
Matsumoto Ryohei's eyes narrowed slightly, and various complex emotions gathered in his eyes.
"."
Head God Forest Center, Black Swamp.
Qin Zhibo saw that most of the Voodoo believers were chasing the private detective named Bin Mike.
Now only Kinoshita Tomonori and another believer are left on the island, as well as two young women who were tied up as sacrifices.
"Dr. Kinoshita, can the ceremony continue?"
Kinoshita Satoshi shook his head and gritted his teeth and said: "The ceremony is interrupted, Baron Samedi will not come again, and we can only wait for the next Sabbath."
"If it hadn't been for that man, I would have killed the evil thoughts in people's hearts today."
"What about these two women? They shouldn't be able to stay until the next ceremony, right?"
The Voodoo believers asked what to do with the two women, but Kinoshita Tomonomy just looked at them coldly and pronounced their fate.
"Throw it into the swamp."
Seeing that they could not escape the fate of being killed, the two women quickly screamed for mercy.
But the Voodoo believers ignored them at all and drove the two people into the swamp with steel knives in their hands. If they didn't take the initiative to jump into the swamp, they would be hacked to death.
Just as the two of them were crying and one foot had already stepped into the muddy water, a figure suddenly appeared behind the Voodoo believer without any warning.
The two of them stared in disbelief with their eyes red and swollen from crying, and the Voodoo believers also noticed something was wrong.
But by this time it was already too late. Qin Zhibo's leg lift, which he had carefully practiced for several days, was whipped from behind like an iron whip.
In movies and TV shows, masters attack people from behind and usually hit the opponent's carotid artery with a knife to cause fainting.
The advantage of this method is that there will be no sequelae and it will recover on its own after a while.
However, Qin Zhibo's purpose was exactly the opposite, which was to leave a psychological shadow on his body and mind that could never be healed.
Only one attack can produce such an effect, and the only way is to lift the legs.
Qin Zhibo's whip leg was thrown out in a move, and the anus of the Voodoo believer tightened instantly, and a pain like egg liquid beating into egg blossoms rushed straight to his forehead.
Before the painful scream could even come out of his throat, his brain had already fainted and his body fell heavily to the ground.
Maybe after today, this Voodoo believer will completely lose some ability.
On the other side, Satoshi Kinoshita had a look of astonishment when he saw Qin Zhibo appearing out of thin air.
"You, you are."
Although the face of the fake Qin Zhibo is very similar to the real one, anyone who has really seen Qin Zhibo can easily see the difference.
Faced with Kinoshita Tomonori's surprise, Qin Zhibo didn't talk nonsense with him. He punched Kinoshita Tomonori on the bridge of his nose and hit Kinoshita Tomonori's abdomen with another fist.
Before Qin Zhibo could add another kick, Kinoshita fell to the ground.
Although Kinoshita Tomonori is an expert at using voodoo spells, his combat effectiveness is very poor and he is simply vulnerable to a single blow.
Why did you fall down before I even exerted any force?
Both people on the island were dealt with, and Qin Zhibo turned around to untie the two frightened young women.
"If you go down the mountain in this direction, you should soon find the Aoi House Hotel. There are police and detectives there, and you will be protected."
"There is also this videotape. If you hand it to the police, everything will become clear."
Qin Zhibo took out the video recorder from his pocket, took out the recorded video tape, and carefully wiped the fingerprints on it with a handkerchief.
The two women took the videotape and asked quickly: "Aren't you coming with us?"
"No." Qin Zhibo shook his head, "I still want to check on that guy."
The guy Qin Zhibo was talking about was naturally the private detective named Bin Mike.
He is currently being chased by a group of voodoo believers, one of whom is still a resurrected corpse that cannot feel pain. The situation should not be good.
"But... we don't dare to leave by ourselves."
"Not leaving?"
"If you don't want to leave, just stay here and wait for those people to come back!"
Qin Zhibo's tone suddenly became stern, and the two women were frightened and ran away in the direction Qin Zhibo pointed.
Watching the two women disappear into the dark woods, Qin Zhibo turned his head to check on Kinoshita Tomonori.
The other Voodoo believer may not be able to get up again. Qin Zhibo only needs to tie up Tomonori Kinoshita and wait for the police to pick him up.
Qin Zhibo tied up Tomonori Kinoshita with the rope used to untie the two women, and immediately got up and chased Hamak in the direction of his escape.
Aoi House Hotel, the investigation of the case is still continuing.
After two hours of questioning and investigation, it was found that none of the more than a dozen hotel employees had alibi during the time when the crime could have been committed.
This time it's a luxurious one-dozen choice question.
Yamamura Soo, who was experiencing this kind of case for the first time, was extremely busy. The hotel employees kept complaining that they still had unfinished work, which made him, a rookie policeman, tired of dealing with it.
At this moment, Yamamura Soo's phone suddenly rang, and Mouri Kogoro's magnetic voice came from the other side.
"I already have a clue about the case. You can pretend that today's investigation is over. After you go out, I will wait for you in your car."
When Shancun Cao heard this, he immediately acted as if he had received an imperial edict and hurriedly followed it.
Back in the car outside the hotel, Mouri Kogoro had already switched to a sleeping state at some point.
Of course, Mouri Kogoro really fell asleep, and the person who took over this body was Conan in the back seat of the car.
"Don't make any noise, get in the car first, and then drive the car to the Tou Shen Forest."
"Huh? Oh"
Yamamura Cao questioned it, but chose to believe it first and drove out of the hotel.
On the way to the Tougami Forest, Conan borrowed the words of Kogoro Mori to tell the whole story of the case.
The basic facts of the case were that a hotel employee colluded with the impostor Mouri Kogoro to defraud the hotel owner of the box he kept.
As for the contents of the box, it should be related to a large amount of money.
And the money was obtained through illegal channels by the hotel employee, the murderer, and the man in red with long hair.
Two people were accomplices in a certain case. The man in red was responsible for hiding the money. The two discussed using the money after the limelight had passed.
As a result, the murderer betrayed his promise and killed his accomplices in order to keep the money.
"But there's no money in the suitcase?" Yamamura Cao asked doubtfully.
Conan used a bow-tie voice changer to reply: "The suitcase is not the key, the key is the sports newspaper, which contains the secret code left by the man in red."
"Do you still remember the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who fell forward in the forest of the head god? That's where the money was hidden."
"I have asked Conan to tell the meaning of the code. Only murderers who understand the meaning of the suitcase will come to dig for money."
"We just have to wait and see."
Yamamura Cao: "."
Just when Conan thought that Yamamura Cao was swayed by his perfect reasoning, Yamamura Cao suddenly raised a very pointed question.
"Mr. Maori, I have been watching in the rearview mirror just now."
"It seems like you didn't open your mouth when you were speaking your reasoning while you were asleep?"
Hearing this, Conan's face was startled, and cold sweat formed on his forehead.
How can this rookie police officer pay attention to places that other police officers cannot see?
"Cough, cough, cough."
"It's ventriloquism! I used ventriloquism!"
"As soon as I deduce the truth, I feel weak all over, and I don't even want to open my mouth."
Yamamura Soo looked at Mouri Kogoro in the mirror, his eyes narrowing and getting smaller.
Immediately, Yamamura Cao's eyebrows suddenly stretched, with a bright smile on his face.
"As expected of Mr. Mori! His reasoning with ventriloquism is so handsome!"
"When will you teach me how to use ventriloquism?"
