Boom boom boom

The villa collapsed.

The dust raised by the scattered bricks and stones flew in all directions, and after a while, it was swallowed up by the heavy rain.

A faint sobbing sound suddenly came from the dense swarm of insects.

Several broken mirrors were shaking.

After a few breaths, an old man with gray hair emerged from the ruins, shrugging his shoulders.

His exposed skin was covered with dense wounds.

My clothes and hair were also stained with a lot of mud.

The old man growled and whimpered, using his palms with several broken nails to try to break open the fragments of bricks and tiles that were pressing down on his body.

Blood slipped from his lips.

Sen Bai's teeth kept clashing, making a dense "kaka" sound. His breathing became more rapid, and blue veins protruded from his forehead.

Uneasiness and fear spread here.

His body began to tremble, and a large amount of sweat continued to seep out of his skin, which was then washed away by the rain.

"Cough cough cough!"

A muffled cough choked the old man's throat.

His muscles began to spasm.

The palms used to dig out the masonry no longer had any strength, and the severe pain made him unable to breathe several times.

Bloodshot blood covered the eyeball, and then crawled out of the eyeball.

Immediately afterwards, the bright red engulfed his whole body under the rainy night...

…

"It scared me to death, it really scared me to death..."

On the side of the road at the foot of the mountain.

Under the illumination of street lights.

Kuroba Kaidouji sat on the ground without grace, breathing heavily.

The disposable camera was affected by the weather and intermittently transmitted back images from the wreckage of the villa.

Dead?

Judging from the position, this series of changes should have been caused by the old guy triggering some mechanism.

But then again, why does the discomfort of this direct-connected long-distance video signal transmission increase after mastering the use of current? Is it because it is consumed unknowingly...

Ye Gengyi rubbed his tired eyes, turned his head and threatened Kuroba Kaito:

"Don't rest for too long. Before those bugs catch up, walk along the road towards the county... Of course, you can also stay here and rest slowly."

"No, wait for me..."

Kuroba Kaito quickly got up and trotted to catch up. Naturally, he didn't forget to say:

"Brother, what on earth are those red bugs?"

"I don't know. You can ask this kid when he wakes up." Ye Gengyi said.

...Time was too tight this time, especially the last wave of strange insects, which directly disrupted his investigation plan.

"Haha, according to the time when this guy Baima sent you the invitation letter, it is estimated that he will arrive at the villa one day earlier than us at most."

Although he said this, Kuroba Kaito immediately reached out and fumbled in the pocket of Mr. Charming, and he actually found a palm-sized notepad.

A black-and-white photo slipped out from the page that had not yet been soaked by the rain.

"Huh? What is this... Oh my God! Brother, look at it..."

Kuroba Kaito picked it up in a murmur, and immediately expressed surprise when he saw it.

"What?"

Ye Gengyi leaned over and suddenly frowned when looking at the group photo.

Kuroba Kaito pointed to the people above him from left to right and said:

"Hey, it's so weird... This young woman... isn't she the housekeeper who brought us food, so this man is the old man... But if this is a photo from decades ago, why...

That Urashima Motoka is still so young?!"

"Maybe it has something to do with bugs and blood."

Ye Geng thought of the woman's crazy state, "So... is that a sequelae?"

"Ah? What did you say, brother?" Kuroba Kaito was confused.

"I'm saying that once some people have power and money, they will uncontrollably begin to pursue the illusory eternal life." Ye Geng said.

"Hmm... I quite agree with this."

Kuroba Kaito rested his head on his arms, obviously thinking of the 'Pandora's Stone' that he had been looking for.

"Okay, Kudo-san, what are you going to do?"

Ye Gengyi brought the topic back to the present.

White Horse Detective's physical characteristics have always been under the induction of nanorobots.

Although he is not awake yet, he will wake up sooner or later.

As for Kuroba Kaito, if he went to the [Strange Museum] to disguise himself as Kudo Shinichi before, just to avoid causing more trouble after the mask was destroyed, then now the Hakuba Detective has no idea that the other party has been there, which is completely fine.

No need to appear in front of him.

"I'd better look for a chance to escape."

Kuroba Kaito nodded to show that he understood, "Anyway, brother... thank you so much this time, whether it's helping me find clues in Okutama or coming here to save this guy Hakuba Tan."

"Oh? I can understand the first part, but what about the second part?" Ye Gengyi was surprised.

As I said before, he was really not familiar with Detective Baima. He came to the appointment because he knew the identity of the son of the police chief of Baima.

Just like when we were in the mountains earlier, if something really bad happened.

Ye Gengyi would definitely throw him down without hesitation, and then escape quickly with Black Feather Kaito.

As a result, the relationship between the two policemen and criminals seems to be better than I imagined.

To give a simple example, if the person Ye Geng saved was Conan, Kuroba Kaito would never thank him on his behalf.

"Hakuba is a bit difficult to deal with, but he's not a bad person. It would be a pity if he really died," Kuroba Kaito said.

"Um……"

Ye Gengyi thought for a moment, "Then I'll give you this favor? Anyway, there's no trace left at the villa. As long as I explain the matter to your disguise, the reason, etc., you can find out a lot of things just by thinking about it.

Pile it up."

"No, no, no."

Kuroba Kaito waved his hands repeatedly, "I didn't help much this time."

...Yes, I was just surprised. Thinking about it again, brother, this must be the first time I have seen this kind of scene. I still need to learn more about how to improve my response when dealing with emergencies.

Practice.

"That's up to you."

Ye Gengyi nodded nonchalantly, already starting to think about how to make this story more complete when Detective White Horse wakes up.

The two separated at the intersection.

Kuroba Kaito went to a nearby hotel.

Ye Gengyi brought Baima Tan to the hospital and directly went through the hospitalization procedures for the two people.

After washing his body, putting on clean hospital clothes, and throwing the soaked clothes into the washing machine, Ye Gengyi lay on the bed and let out a long sigh of relief.

The Museum of Strangeness?

What a strange adventure...

It's a pity that no matter how strange they are, the physical qualities of those three people are just ordinary people.

After experiencing such a building collapse and a dense and terrifying tide, the probability of survival is almost equal to 0...

Otherwise, if they really had the so-called antibodies, they wouldn't have so many mirrors in every room.

late at night.

Ye Geng turned his head to look at the window of the ward, bent down and glanced under the hospital bed. After waiting for a moment, he could not wait to see Urashima Motoka with a bloody face staring at him.

He yawned, closed his eyes and sighed silently:
Chapter completed!
