Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Someone! Someone has set the mountain on fire! Everyone be on alert, everyone on the mountain, get out quickly!"

Shortly after the four people surrounding the stone slab smiled evilly, Washiko Komiya Touko heard the sound of a fire truck and a horn calling out, and looked at the four people in amazement.

In fact, there was something she wanted to tell those four people. Her hearing was very good, so when those four people were plotting loudly, she was also listening nearby and confirmed a few things.

First, the boy who looked younger was the son of some high-ranking official, because after the man made a phone call and mumbled something, the fire truck arrived quickly.

Second, the guy in disguise is the famous Kaito Kid in Tokyo, and his name is not Kudo Tsugezo.

"Kaito... is that the Kaito from the TV before... Kuroba, no wonder the disguise looks so familiar!"

Washi Komiya's eyelashes covered her eyes, making her look like she was resting, but that didn't look good considering the sound of horns coming from the bottom of the mountain.

The third child looked like he was only seven years old, but he was very unusual, and he claimed to be a brother of the official.

The fourth foreigner speaks with an Osaka accent, don't worry about him.

"What! Why did someone set the fire?"

Kogoro, who was protecting Axe Takuzo as he retreated from the back of the shrine, saw four people squatting next to the stone slab at a glance, especially Conan, and exclaimed: "Conan?! Where have you been these two days!"

"Ou-chan..."

The elementary school student was so scared that he hid behind Yuuji, successfully arousing the serious contempt of the other three. However, only the boy, who was the younger brother, understood that the reason Conan was afraid was that the uncle would really hit Conan's butt in public and take off his pants.

So Yuji became Conan's only salvation, and he smiled and said that this boy had been with him for the past two days.

"I see. By the way, you guys should hurry up and escape with us."

Kogoro Mori ignored Takuzo Axie who was a little anxious beside him, walked to the stone slab and was about to pull up the four children, but the next second his hand was pushed back by Yuji.

"Uncle, you guys go down the mountain first." Youji shook his head: "We still have things to do here."

"Something's going on..." Maori Kogoro narrowed his eyes, then patted Yuji's shoulder: "Be careful of the fire, go down quickly."

"Oh."

"Also, that name is too ugly. Remember to tell...that person that he is not allowed to name my grandson after me in the future."

Just from the information he saw at the police station, Maori Kogoro was sure that Kudo Shinichi had met his requirements, so...

"Eh……"

As a group of people ran out, Kaito and Hattori Heiji looked at Officer Nakamori and nodded, then immediately got up and took the hand from Officer Nishimura who was supporting the old lady at the back.

"Grandma, let's go down the mountain together."

The old man stared at "Nakamori Aoko" for a few seconds, then shook his head decisively: "No, I must stay in the shrine."

"A shrine is worthless compared to your life!"

Kuroba Kaito launched a charm, but the old man ignored the magician's attack. His fox eyes reflected a meaningful look, successfully confusing Kuroba Kaito.

"I promised my deceased mother that I would protect this shrine."

"Even if you stay here, you can't save you if the fire breaks out." Hattori Heiji seriously supported the old woman's other side, refusing her to struggle, and then knocked Kuroba Kaito on the head.

"That's it!"

The sober magician nodded and cooperated with Detective Osaka.

"Kaito and Hattori, those two guys are amazing." The Kudo brothers watched in amazement as two men carried the old man and surpassed the fleeing group, becoming the leaders in going down the mountain.

In the blink of an eye, only the two of them and Washi Komiya Touko, who had been hiding behind the Mitarashi, were left on the mountain. When the girl saw that there was no one else, she immediately rushed out from behind the wooden wall.

"There is another one, what should I do?"

Yuuji looked at Conan awkwardly, but found that his brother's right hand was already on his belt: "Wow, do you want to kick her to death? You are really inhumane."

"Shut up!"

Seeing the girl opposite him immediately took a few steps back vigilantly after Yuuji said that, Conan forced himself to put on a cute smile that was usually very useful.

"Sister...it's okay, this brother is just joking with you, so..."

With his left and right feet lightly touching, Conan, who felt his sneakers start to work, finally revealed an evil smile and kicked a football towards the girl. Then came the brothers with their mouths wide open, and the deflated football that quickly reflected back with a silver light and hit the tree far behind him.

“Hmm… that was a close call…”

Orange on the opposite side raised her elbow, and because of gravity, her white and tender arm slipped out of the sleeve of the shrine maiden's costume, and a red mark could still be seen where she had bounced the football.

"Yuuji, things seem to be a little troublesome."

Conan took a step back, but turned around and noticed that his younger brother, who had already run towards the blessed land behind the shrine at some point, was waving at him.

[I have always believed in my brother! So... I'll leave the statue in front of the shrine to you!]
The Kudo brothers' special dialogue codes made Conan's pupils shrink, and then he turned around to confront the witch.

"Ah, ah, ah." Conan put his hand on his forehead and shook his head helplessly: "What a helpless brother."

"What..." Orange clenched her fists. The miko's uniform now looked like a martial arts uniform on her. "Don't you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"

"A trump card? I don't need this kind of thing to deal with you." Conan's eyes flashed white.

"Who the hell are you?!"

"Edogawa Conan is a detective."

With the lens raised, Conan raised his hands handsomely with a confident look in the face of the witch's suddenly rich expression.

At the same time, not far down the mountain.

"Ah, what kind of bad idea is this, sir? Let us come here with so many smoke booms!"

On the hill below the shrine, Gojo was accompanied by a group of bodyguards, one of whom was holding a barrel of smoke spray.

They picked up white smoke spray poles used to locate people and mark their positions. They pulled out one every three meters and threw the thick smoke spray poles, which could release smoke for about five minutes, on the ground.

The formation gradually dispersed forward and backward, and the smoke released by the spray boom became a layer-by-layer situation. When blown by the local sea breeze of Hakodate, it looked more like a fire than a real fire.

"Hurry up and keep going up the mountain. Watch your step. There may be branches or something like that in this season. Don't get hurt."

Wucheng pulled out a sprinkler head and pointed it directly in the direction of the mountain. He also kept an eye on the surroundings, worried that the ghost face would appear and attack under such circumstances.

[But you can't run away this time. ]

He patted the pistol in his other hand, feeling somewhat expectant.
