Stay away from Conan

Chapter 1578 Gao Yuan’s helplessness

Looking at this mysterious samurai's fighting style, Michiko Tetsu felt the opponent's determination to kill Gao Yuan, as well as his fighting style that did everything in order to kill people, and his fighting style that was almost done in one go without giving his opponent much chance to react. , is a completely unforgiving technique, which is completely different from the styles of the major schools today. It was inevitable that Michiko Tetsumi felt this way, so she came up with the sentence just now.

At the same time, because he had witnessed the mysterious samurai's attack with his own eyes, Shizuka Hattori looked at the opponent's tactics and couldn't help but compare them with the ones he remembered Shiro Shiro used when he won the championship, and intuitively felt It seems that they are indeed very similar.

But in this regard, the current situation does not give Michiko Tetsu and Shizuka Hattori more time to think about it——

Seeing that Gao Yuan was about to be beaten at close range by the mysterious samurai holding a short sword because he couldn't draw his katana, and when it looked like he was about to lose, Gao Yuan suddenly took the katana and pressed down hard.

Since the opponent is holding the scabbard to prevent him from unsheathing the sword, similarly, the opponent's hand has already fallen on the other end of the attack range extended by the katana.

And this is actually the two ends of the katana being controlled by each other. So in short, exerting force on one end will inevitably be transmitted to the other side.

From this, it seemed that the opponent stopped Gao Yuan from drawing the sword, but at this moment, the opponent directly fell into the range where Gao Yuan could attack, so he pressed the katana down hard, and the katana just followed the opponent's hand. It affected the opponent's movements and caused the slightest flaw in the fierce offensive.

And just taking advantage of this moment, he jumped back, drew the sword at the same time in this way, and pulled out the katana in an instant, so that even if the opponent wanted to repeat the same trick, he planned to use the sheath to put the sword back on the blade again. The means used, it was too late to react at this moment——

And as the long sword was unsheathed, the attack and defense were suddenly different!

At this moment, after seeing that Gao Yuan still pulled out the long sword, the mysterious warrior made a prompt decision and turned around and ran away without stopping at all. It seemed that when he was fighting with the scabbard just now, Gao Yuan had taken advantage of the length of the weapon. Having the upper hand, the advantage of the length of the weapon is still there, and it is also a sharp blade.

This inevitably made the mysterious warrior feel unsure. He knew that it would be difficult to defeat Gao Yuan with the advantage of the short sword alone, so he did not even intend to try. The other party chose to escape——

Of course, this is mainly because Michiko Tetsu and Shizuka Hattori are already nearby. If we continue to fight the mysterious samurai, will we have to fight one against three?

Even if the other party is two female streamers.

In this way, seeing that the other party actually chose to run away, Gao Yuan naturally did not intend to let the other party go, and chased after him——

It's a pity that the other party chose to jump into the river and leave.

After all, this location is right next to the bridge.

In the dark night, the mysterious warrior jumped into the river, but Gao Yuan couldn't swim, so he had no choice but to give up and call the police...

--hateful……

Is it time for me to learn how to swim when I have time...

In this way, facing this situation, Gao Yuan thought in his heart, and after a while, Henggou Zhenwu, who had just left, came over with the police officers.

After a brief understanding, he learned that this might be related to an incident that happened in Tokyo yesterday. Hengo Sango also chose to report to the police station. At the same time, the police also investigated the waters here as much as possible, but after all It's dark now, so such an investigation is still a bit difficult.

However, regarding the identity of this mysterious warrior, Gao Yuan was basically certain that the other party should be the one who attacked Tie Zhuyu and the others in Tokyo. Judging from the situation of his fight with the other party today, it seems that the other party's strength should not be much different from his own. There are many, and if you use the items yourself, it shouldn't be a problem to defeat your opponent.

Then the remaining question is to determine why the other party appears in this place——

"Officer Henggou. According to Mrs. Shibata, Mr. Shibata has been called by Mr. Yoshikawa to play mahjong for a big gamble at night, and he didn't come back until very late. So where is Mr. Shibata and his friends playing mahjong?"

In this way, Gao Yuan asked Henggou Zhenwu and seemed to have roughly guessed the reason.

And then, the answer given by Henggou Zhenwu convinced Gao Yuan that his idea was correct——

The position guarded by the mysterious warrior at night is the only way Shibata Shiro will pass every night when he goes out to play mahjong. Therefore, the mysterious warrior should know Shibata Shiro's daily whereabouts and come here specifically to block him.

But the mysterious samurai could not have imagined that Shiro Shibata had been killed early this morning. Today's wait was in vain after all...

So, applying this idea to analyze what happened to Tie Zhuyu and the others last night, is it possible that the other party did not actually know the whereabouts of Usami Chiyo and the others that night, but just because that place was the only way for Usami Chiyo to go out, so Where is the other party waiting?

But in this case, the problem is actually a bit strange——

The mysterious samurai Tie Zhuyu and the others met was carrying two samurai swords, but the one he saw only had one...

No, that’s not to say that he only brought one. The other party clearly had a short knife hidden away.

What does this mean?

When facing Usami Chiyo, the opponent handed Usami Chiyo a katana, thereby creating a seemingly fair duel environment.

This time, the opponent should be blocking Shibata Shiro, but he only has a long sword in his hand and hides a short sword. Why is that?

Is the opponent going to have a duel with Shibata Shiro to "determine the superiority and life and death" just like yesterday?

As such a duel, at least the superficial fairness should be maintained, right?

The weapons are different from Shibata Shiro's, is such a duel fair?

Therefore, the opponent's purpose is still a little unclear, but there is one thing-

If the opponent is the same person as yesterday, then the opponent has left three samurai swords at the scene.

Let the police investigate the fingerprints first and see if they can confirm whether the fingerprints of the two are the same, so as to make a judgment.

Although the original plan to look for Shibata Shiro has failed, since Ms. Hattori Shizuka and the other party were members of the same kendo club, I wonder if the other party can provide some clues...

Thinking in this way, after the police carefully searched the situation in the river, they really couldn't find any trace of the other party, so Gao Yuan and others didn't stay here for too long. After taking notes, Gao Yuan and others got on Tetsu Michiko's car and headed towards Tokyo-

"Aunts, just now... the routine used by that person, do you think it is similar to Mr. Shibata's?"

Facing Tetsu Michiko and Hattori Shizuka, Gao Yuan thought about it and asked about this matter.

In this regard, Tetsu Michiko did not express her opinion directly, but Hattori Shizuka thought about it with a slightly solemn expression, and then said:

"Very similar... And, if you are concerned about the moves and routines used by that person, maybe I can ask someone!"
