The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 49 Bandaged Man: A fellow traveler?

Leaving the road, Qin Zhibo walked onto the trail leading into the mountains.

Although it is a small trail, the strange thing is that there are many branch roads leading to other places along the way.

However, these side roads were completely meaningless to Qin Zhibo, who was carrying a navigator. There were no interference options, let alone getting lost.

After walking for almost two kilometers, it started to rain lightly.

Umbrellas are definitely not allowed, and we are not going out for an outing.

So Qin Zhibo took out a black raincoat from the backpack behind him and put it on him.

In order to prevent the backpack from getting wet from the rain, cover the backpack with a raincoat.

After walking forward for about half an hour, Qin Zhibo crossed the upper reaches of a river, then turned and walked downstream, entering a forest with flat terrain.

It was already evening by this time.

Qin Zhibo turned on the navigator, checked the red coordinate points marked on the map, and found that the straight-line distance from his position was less than five thousand meters.

Five thousand meters should be a safe range.

Qin Zhibo muttered, and then prepared to take off his equipment and set up camp here tonight.

Qin Zhibo's idea is very simple. Since the mission requirement is to survive at night, it means that place is not dangerous during the day.

And according to people's common sense of life, it is relatively safe during the day.

So Qin Zhibo planned to spend the night here tonight and wait until dawn tomorrow to find out.

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to remove the mountaineering backpack from his back, a flash of thunder suddenly lit up in the sky.

Along with the blue lightning that penetrated the tree canopy, a deafening thunder suddenly sounded.

Boom!

Qin Zhibo, who was not frightened in any way, looked up at the sky expressionlessly, feeling a little worried in his heart.

The lightning and thunder are very close to each other, indicating that the thundering place is near here.

If I lived in this forest, wouldn't it be easy for me to get hit?

It's better to walk forward, it would be lucky if we could find a cave or something like that.

Stepping on the soft soil and breathing the fresh air unique to the mountains, Qin Zhibo was in a good mood.

After breathing the industrial waste gas emitted from the modern metropolis of Tokyo all day long, Qin Zhibo felt that his lung tubes were somewhat blocked.

No wonder Matsumoto Ryohei would rather drive to commute every day and live in a villa in the mountains than in a convenient city.

It's a pity that there are only mountains here now and no villas.

Just when Qin Zhibo was feeling emotional, a scream from the woods reached Qin Zhibo's ears.

This scream was a female voice.

And it sounds familiar?

Qin Zhibo took long strides and ran following the screams.

After passing through the not-too-dense woods, Qin Zhibo saw something in the open space behind a bush.

Standing in the middle of the clearing was a man covered in a black cloak, holding an ax in his hand. Both his hands and the side of his face were covered with bandages.

And this bandaged man was staring eagerly at a girl in a red suit who fell to the ground.

Qin Zhibo happened to know this girl, she was Mao Lilan, one of the two heroes of the Maori clan.

Seeing Mao Lilan in this deep mountain forest, Qin Zhibo felt a sense of intimacy like meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

Yo!

Qin Zhibo said hello regardless of the occasion, and at the same time alarmed the frightened Mao Lilan and the bandaged man who was walking towards Mao Lilan with an axe.

The bandaged man looked back and saw Qin Zhibo, who was dressed in almost the same style as himself.

At this moment, the bandaged man was immediately stunned.

The man hiding behind the bushes in front of him was covered in a huge black raincoat and had a crowbar in one hand.

Except for the difference in weapons, there is no obstruction on this person's face, and you can directly see the face inside.

Although he does not look young, his handsome face makes the bandaged man completely unable to remember that this person is among the people who came here for the class reunion today.

Could it be

A colleague?

The bandaged man immediately thought of a more likely scenario, that is, he met his peers.

At a class reunion, I encountered a murderous maniac lurking in the mountains. Why does this title sound so pleasing to the ear?

The bandaged man remembered that this was exactly the excuse he had thought of from the beginning.

But who would have thought that a real murderer could emerge from this deep mountain!

Why doesn't this murderer wear a mask to cover his face like himself?

Of course, everyone who saw him was already dead, so there was no need to cover his face!

It seems that the murderer I met is still a master!

Coming to this conclusion quickly in his brain, the bandaged man's heart trembled slightly.

After all, he is a fake, and opposite him is a real guy who kills people like crazy.

But then I thought about it, now I can be considered a companion with this murderer. Wouldn't it be difficult for a companion to be a companion?

Then as long as he handed over the little girl he wanted to kill to this colleague, wouldn't he save a lot of trouble?

That’s it!

The man with the bandage made up his mind and stepped aside half of his body. The two lips exposed in the bandage gap were slightly opened.

or.

You come?

Just then, there was a noise in the bushes on the other side.

This time a little boy in blue jumped out.

Seeing this little boy, Qin Zhibo shouted out habitually again.

Conan the Worker.

Uncle Qin?

Conan was first startled by the visually impressive bandaged man in the middle of the clearing, and then by Qin Zhibo who had equally impressive visual impact next to him.

At this time, the bandaged man also reacted.

It turns out that this person is not his colleague, but someone whom the girl and the child know.

Run!

Without saying a word, the bandaged man turned around and ran in the direction where no one could stop him.

Seeing that the bandaged man was about to run away, Conan made a quick decision and chose to catch up quickly.

But within two steps of chasing, Conan discovered that the opponent was very fast, as if the terrain of the forest had a movement speed bonus on a rainy day, and he quickly disappeared into the woods.

But he can't run away, because there are still

Conan looked around with relief, but found that Qin Zhibo was still standing there and did not catch up.

Qin! Uncle, why don't you chase me?

Huh? Why should I chase you?

Because he kills people.

Conan suddenly had an idea in his mind and remembered that this bandaged man had never killed anyone before.

Because he looks suspicious! And he suddenly came out to attack Xiaolan!

Qin Zhibo shrugged: Is that so?

I thought he was a man who went up the mountain to chop wood.

This cannot be blamed on Qin Zhibo, because in this situation, people feel suspicious, and seeing that the other person is holding an ax in his hand, they think that he is going to kill someone because he is afraid in his heart.

Qin Zhibo felt no fear or uneasiness from the bandaged man just now, so he naturally would not make malicious assumptions about the person he met for the first time.

As for the bandage man attacking Xiaolan, Qin Zhibo looked more like he was helping Xiaolan who fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Xiaolan's screams and fearful expression were also due to the fact that her clothes were stained after falling into the mud.

Qin Zhibo has seen such girls who scream loudly when their shoes are stepped on.

To put it simply, the disadvantage of high willpower is that it does not have the same ability to empathize with ordinary people when faced with terrifying images.
