Gin doesn't want to work hard

Helpless, Conan could only glance at the car briefly before jumping out.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the car plunged off the cliff and exploded violently.

Conan and Heiji Hattori watched this scene with serious expressions.

Suddenly, they realized something was wrong.

They both looked back at the same time.

But the hotel, which had been brightly lit, had somehow gone dark.

All the lights went out, plunging the entire hotel into darkness.

problem occurs!

Both of them realized this at the same time.

They immediately ran back.

……

Go back a few minutes.

Kurosawa was standing by the window, watching Conan and the other person's actions from a distance.

Suddenly, the lights went out.

The restaurant was plunged into complete darkness.

At the same time, a whooshing sound came from behind Kurosawa.

With a ferocious smile on his face, Kento Toba gripped the knife and stabbed it fiercely at Kurosawa.

But unexpectedly, he missed.

Toba Kento was stunned for a moment.

Kurosawa, who was just in front of him, had vanished.

He looked around warily.

But in complete darkness, he couldn't see anything.

Kurosawa silently approached from behind him.

……

"Kurosawa-nii!"

A shout made Kurosawa pause in his movements.

He then took two steps back and replied.

"I'm here."

Unsurprisingly, Toba Kento stabbed towards the direction from which the sound came.

Almost at the same time.

light is on.

Toba Kento was startled. He tried to hide the knife, but it was too late.

His actions had already been observed by Conan and Heiji Hattori, who had rushed back.

"stop it now!"

The two immediately shouted.

Kento Toba knew he had been discovered.

He had no idea that things would turn out this way.

That was originally in his plan.

First, he distracted Hitomi Iwai by saying he wanted to drink coffee, and then used her to plug a pre-prepared plug into the socket, causing a power outage.

Then, Hattori Heiji was diverted by the matter of the innkeeper.

At that time, only Kurosawa will remain in the restaurant.

As for Conan, Kento Toba didn't take him seriously at all.

If all goes well, Kento Toba can kill Kurosawa and then frame someone who is completely innocent.

But he didn't expect Kurosawa to dodge his sneak attack.

He also didn't expect the hotel lights to come back on so quickly.

This put him in a very awkward situation.

Holding the knife, Kento Toba gritted his teeth, turned around, and ran out of the hotel.

No matter what, as long as you run, there is still hope!

Chapter 117 Tracking

"Stop him quickly!"

"Conan shouted, exchanging a glance with Heiji Hattori.

They instantly understood what the other meant.

The two split up, with one going around to the main gate from outside the hotel.

One of them climbed back through the window and chased after Toba Kento.

Seeing this, Kurosawa followed suit.

Kento Toba seemed to know the hotel's route very well, and he ran without hesitation and at a very fast speed.

Before long, he arrived at the entrance of the hotel.

It was the early hours of the morning, and the outside world was pitch black.

The hotel is located in a very remote area.

If they leave the hotel like this, even Kento Toba himself can't guarantee what he might encounter.

But he has no choice now.

Having witnessed the crime firsthand, if Kento Toba continues to stay at the hotel, his only option will be to be caught.

But if he escapes, he still has a glimmer of hope.

I'm grateful to the hotel owner for confiscating my phone.

He had destroyed all the communication equipment in the hotel.

For at least the short term, the people in the hotel will be unable to contact the outside world.

He might have a chance to leave this place during this time.

Thinking this, Toba Kento quickened his pace again.

It looked like Toba Iwato was about to run out of the hotel.

Conan, who was chasing behind him, was still some distance away.

"hateful!"

Conan gritted his teeth.

He crouched down and reached for the adjustment buttons on the shoes.

Just as he was looking for something to kick out to stop Toba Kento.

A figure suddenly appeared outside the hotel entrance.

However, it was Hattori Heiji who had surrounded the inn from outside.

Conan's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he immediately shouted.

"Stop him, Hattori!"

Hattori Heiji naturally thought the same thing and immediately stood in front of Toba Kento.

Seeing this, Toba Kento gritted his teeth and threw the knife in his hand directly at them.

Hattori Heiji was startled and instinctively dodged to the side.

Take advantage of this opportunity to run away.

Once they ran out of the hotel.

The pitch-black night became the best cover.

While the two were still in a daze, Toba Kento's figure almost disappeared into the darkness.

Without time to hesitate, Conan immediately got up and chased after them with Heiji Hattori.

Kurosawa watched the two figures walk away, but instead of following them, he turned and walked in another direction.

This hotel is located in the mountains, on the edge of a cliff.

The only way out of here is the winding mountain road they came from.

If Kento Toba wanted to escape, he would definitely try to get to the highway.

Conan and Heiji Hattori were busy chasing after someone and probably didn't think of this at the time.

But Kurosawa is different.

From the very beginning, he was thinking from Toba Kento's perspective.

Look in the direction they left.

Kento Toba's destination should be the grove west of the hotel.

The terrain there is complex, the vegetation is dense, and it is near a highway.

If Kento Toba can shake off the two detectives chasing him in the woods, he will be able to get to the highway.

If he's lucky enough to run into a car or something, Kento Toba might actually have a chance to escape.
