Stay away from Conan.

Sitting on a motorcycle, Hattori Heiji and Conan were talking about staying near the crime scene in Kyoto and working together to investigate. Then, not far from them, an old lady in a kimono appeared and exclaimed -

So, after hearing the noise, Hattori Heiji and Conan turned around and saw a guy wearing a helmet who was also riding a motorcycle grabbed the bag in the hand of the aunt in kimono who was shouting, snatched it away, and drove the motorcycle towards the direction where Hattori Heiji and Conan were.

After all, this road is actually a bit narrow, and it is difficult for a motorcycle to complete a turn in one go, so it seemed that the other party was rushing straight forward in order to escape and save time. In fact, the other party was rushing directly towards Hattori Heiji and the other person who were still sitting on the motorcycle.

In this case, the two of them probably turned their heads after hearing the noise. When they realized what was happening, the thief on the motorcycle still drove up to them.

There was no way to avoid it, and the other party didn't seem to be planning to take a detour. The thief actually rushed directly towards Hattori Heiji and the other man who were blocking the way, trying to knock over Hattori Heiji's motorcycle.

As a result, Hattori Heiji and his companion, who had already been seized by the opponent and had no time to react, were caught off guard and could only be knocked away by the opponent. The motorcycle under them was unstable and was about to overturn.

In response, Conan reacted quickly, perhaps because of his small stature, and took the opportunity to roll over and jump directly to the ground without suffering any injuries. Hattori Heiji tried to hold onto the motorcycle, but was about to fall over due to the motorcycle.

So, in desperation, Hattori Heiji could only let go, let himself stand steadily, and after the motorcycle fell to the ground, he would try to right it.

So, after being delayed for a while, the thief seemed to be running away -

"hateful!"

Seeing this, how could Hattori Heiji tolerate such a thing, especially a robbery happening in front of him, so Hattori Heiji immediately straightened the motorcycle, got on, and was about to chase, without even waiting for Conan -

After all, when every second counts, if you waste a little more time, you may even lose sight of the opponent's taillights.

"Hey! Hattori..."

Seeing this, Conan noticed that Hattori Heiji immediately started to chase after him, so he couldn't help but call out to Hattori Heiji, but Hattori Heiji had already stepped on the accelerator. As the roar of the motorcycle engine sounded, Hattori Heiji immediately increased the horsepower to the maximum and chased after the robber.

Seeing how angry Hattori Heiji was, Conan could only do nothing. After all, there was no way he could catch up with that guy.

"Little brother, are you okay?"

At this time, the aunt whose bag was snatched away ran over. Because she saw that the robber had knocked down the motorcycle Conan and his friends were riding, she naturally came to check on Conan. At the same time, she was also worried about Hattori Heiji who was chasing after him, so she couldn't help asking:
"Your brother..."

Subconsciously, the other party mistook Hattori Heiji for Conan's brother and asked if he was in danger.

In this regard, facing this situation, Conan had no choice but to say:

"It's okay... Heiji-nii is a detective, he must want to catch the thief himself, don't worry!"

In this way, Conan also comforted the aunt whose things were stolen, as well as the young lady in kimono who followed the aunt - "Oh, is that so... Little brother, I opened a teahouse nearby. If it is convenient, come to my place to rest. I will also call the police by the way, and then we will wait for your detective brother to come back together, how about it?"

This is what the aunt suggested.

Conan didn't have much to say about this. After all, it was Hattori Heiji who went out alone, so he could only find a place to wait for him to come back...

……

At the same time, Hattori Heiji, who was chasing the thief, tried his best to drive at a very fast speed to keep up with the other party. He chased him all the way from the small road where he had just met the other party. He saw that the other party was also fleeing towards an increasingly remote area.

In this regard, seeing that there were no extra vehicles or pedestrians interfering with the traffic on the road heading towards a remote area, Hattori Heiji drove at the maximum speed without hesitation in the hope of closing the distance with the other party.

But in the same way, the other party was also driving at full speed. Along the way, the two sides chased each other, but in the end there was not much gap between them. They could only maintain a balance at a certain distance, and neither could get rid of the other.

However, this situation is actually beneficial to Hattori Heiji——

"Go further, that road is not easy to drive on. Let's see if you can slow down..."

In this way, Hattori Heiji judged that the other party was about to drive into the mountainous area, and the route there was not as easy to ride as it was now, so he was eager to catch up with the other party and capture the thief. At this moment, Hattori Heiji's mind was almost occupied. He did not notice that at this moment, there was another person riding a motorcycle behind him chasing him.

So, just when the chase was about to turn from the city roads into the winding mountain roads, as if taking advantage of this last flat section of the road and Hattori Heiji's mind being completely focused on the pursuer in front, the driver of the motorcycle following Hattori Heiji suddenly let go of the handlebars of the motorcycle with both hands, but the vehicle was still driving steadily, like a specially trained stuntman, using the opportunity to control the smooth driving of the vehicle body, this strange guy wearing a windbreaker, a hat attached to the clothes on his head, and a strange wooden mask on his face, suddenly bent the bow, put on the arrow, aimed at the back of Hattori Heiji in front of him, and shot an arrow!
In this way, the arrow was successfully shot, and the man riding the bicycle behind immediately regained control of the handlebars, controlling the vehicle and keeping it moving without any accidents. Obviously, shooting an arrow while riding was already the limit for this man.

"what?"

At the moment when the opponent shot the arrow, it seemed that Hattori Heiji sensed something with his keen intuition, or maybe he just wanted to seize this last chance and try to fully accelerate. Hattori Heiji's body bent down slightly while riding his bike -

As a result, the arrow just grazed Hattori Heiji's shoulder and tore the corner of his coat, but did not hurt his body.

But because of this, Hattori Heiji now discovered that there was someone behind him riding a bicycle and shooting arrows at him.

This sudden change shocked Hattori Heiji...

For a moment, the thief he was chasing was in front of him, and behind him came a guy who seemed to want to kill him.

After all, archery while riding a bike is definitely not a surprise!

So, when he thought about the reason why he had followed here, a bad premonition suddenly emerged in Hattori Heiji's heart... (End of this chapter)
