Stay away from Conan

Chapter 66 The Second Sacrifice

When Kudo Shinichi returned to the villa, the lights had been restored. However, only Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko and Feili were on the first floor at this time, but Wakura Yonghai and his children were not here.

When Mao Lilan saw Kudo Shinichi coming back, he stepped forward and asked, "How is it?"

Kudo Shinichi shook his head helplessly.

"What happened when you suddenly appeared there?"

Suzuki Sonoko said with some fear.

Kudo Shinichi saw that there was no figure of Wakura Yukai and others here, and asked: "Where is Mr. Wakura?"

Just as he was talking, Wakura Yoichi walked out of the house next to him and said with an indifferent expression: "Isn't it just a power outage? What's the fuss?"

"Mr. Yoichi, your father is suffering from an old illness. Mr. Ryouji and the others are staying with him in the room."

Feili stepped forward and said, and Wakura Yoichi looked a little surprised: "Dad, he..."

"in the room?"

Kudo Shinichi heard this and asked Mao Lilan and others, "Why didn't you call an ambulance?"

"Calling an ambulance is too fussy."

Wakura Kotomi said as she came down from upstairs, followed by Wakura Ryouji and Wakura Misa.

"In such a remote country, even if you go to the hospital, you won't be able to see anything."

Ryoji Wakura added, "If the situation still doesn't improve by morning, just take dad back to Tokyo for treatment."

When Wakura Yoichi heard this, he also agreed.

"Is this really okay?"

Misa Wakura raised questions.

"If I can die in my favorite village with the legend of Big Bird, then maybe that's what my father wants."

Wakura Kotomi said this, and then looked at the unnatural expressions of everyone present, and added: "I was joking."

"Mr. Yoichi, where did you go just now?"

At this time, Kudo Shinichi suddenly asked.

"Where to go? Go back to the room and get cigarettes."

Wakura Yoichi took out a brand new pack of cigarettes from his pocket and said impatiently, so Kudo Shinichi put the piece of paper he just got in front of everyone.

"check it out."

Wakura Yoichi took the piece of paper, and everyone present also moved forward and read the words on it:

"Curse and kill the Wakura clan who has defiled our sanctuary!"

Seeing such words, several people in the Wakura family were shocked.

Kudo Shinichi noticed that the fragment that was previously given to Wakura Yukai was left on the ground, so he stepped forward to pick it up and thought: "The murderer probably deliberately left this fragment at the scene of the crime. Let Kazuma who sees this Mr. Cang was shaken. Looking at the obvious symbols on it, if my reasoning is correct, when all the pieces are collected, the murderer's true motive will be discovered. "

At night, Ryoji Wakura suddenly came outside the house, where a ruined divine perch was located.

Looking around at the deserted area, Wakura Ryoji felt a little impatient, so he shouted: "Hey! Where are you? Are you calling people out at midnight to talk about property distribution?"

Not getting a response, Wakura Ryoji felt like he was being teased. But he didn't notice that a figure wearing a black feather cloak and a bird mask was standing behind him at this moment!

"Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp—"

In the living room of the villa, Kudo Shinichi once again heard the sound like the chirping of birds when the crime occurred. He looked out the window curiously, wondering what the sound was about.

At this time, Mao Lilan had already taken a bath, changed her clothes, and came to the living room. She looked at Kudo Shinichi, seemed a little uneasy and a little shy, and said: "I can't sleep. Come with me for a walk." ”

Looking at each other speechlessly, Kudo and Xiaolan went out and walked around the village.

"If something like that happened, I'm afraid the memorial service will have to be suspended."

Xiaolan, who was walking in front, suddenly said.

"Maybe. But this is a big day that comes around every 300 years."

Kudo quickened his pace, walked in front of Xiaolan and said.

"It happens once every 300 years."

Xiaolan seemed to be feeling emotional, and walked a few steps quickly, walking side by side with Kudo.

"Shinichi, do you think there will really be a total solar eclipse?"

"A total solar eclipse shouldn't be possible. However, I always care about what might happen."

"Well...is this all you care about?"

Seeing Kudo's reaction, Xiaolan deliberately walked a few steps faster, turned her back to Kudo, and said, "No, there is a very romantic legend?"

"What is it?"

Kudo blurted out without reacting.

"nothing."

Xiaolan's tone was a little disappointed, she didn't look back, she continued walking forward and came to the foot of the divine perch.

"What's wrong? Why are you angry?"

Noticing the change in Xiaolan's mood, Kudo ran up and took her hand.

Following the trend, Xiaolan turned around and looked at Kudo.

"Lovers who kiss under the divine perch will be together for the rest of their lives and will never be separated."

The legend told by Misa Wakura lingers in Xiaolan's mind.

At this moment, there was no one around except two young boys and girls who were in love for the first time, looking at each other as if they were in love.

Then, as cool as raindrops, a drop of liquid fell on Xiaolan's face. When she reached out and touched it, she saw bright red blood.

The two of them looked up and saw that Wakura Ryoji was pierced by a sharp branch on this divine perch!

"ah!"

Xiaolan exclaimed.

"Anyway, please notify Officer Megure as soon as possible."

After a brief panic, Kudo said this. After hearing Kudo's words, Xiaolan recovered from the panic and took out her mobile phone, but what she saw was the text "outside the circle" on the signal bar.

"No, there is no signal, the phone cannot be used!"

Xiaolan still said in a panic, and then immediately made a decision: "I'll notify the people in the villa!"

"please!"

Looking at Xiaolan who had already run out, Kudo stood under the sacred tree and guarded the scene and said.

Looking around, Kudo quickly found a new fragment - the same as the one at Kosaka Sho's scene before, like a part of a round object.

"Sure enough, the murderer planned to place the pieces piece by piece at the crime scene!"

But soon, Xiaolan ran back.

"It's not good, Shinichi. The phones in the villa can't be reached either. Mr. Wakura and the others are checking the reason!"

Hearing Xiaolan's words, Kudo suddenly thought of a possibility - "Don't tell me!"

Kudo said this and immediately turned around and ran out of the village. When Xiaolan saw this, she immediately followed.

The road to the entrance of the village is not too far. Although there are woods everywhere, the path opened in the forest is still easy to find, as long as you don't enter the forest.

They were approaching the entrance of the village, and when passing a sacred perch near a waterfall, Xiaolan tripped over something because it was too dark to see the road, but it was nothing serious, so the two of them continued running towards the entrance of the village.

When they arrived at the suspension bridge at the entrance of the village, what they saw was that the suspension bridge had been burned down!
