Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

Another high-explosive bomb was detonated, and the roof of the hall collapsed. Large chunks of debris mixed with reinforced concrete fell, any one of which could have caused fatal damage.

Meanwhile, Xiaolan, who was caught in the fall, was at the very center of the descent.

"It's over!"

This was Xiaolan's first reaction. There were people all around, and large pieces of debris were falling. She had nowhere to dodge or avoid it, and a sense of desolation welled up in her heart.

Am I going to die here?

Just then, a loud shout rang out.

"Get out of the way!"

A sharp buzzing sound rang out, and the fragments that were about to hit Xiaolan's head shattered instantly. A throwing knife continued its journey and instantly stuck into a pillar on the side, the tip of the knife still trembling.

Even under such circumstances, everyone was stunned and stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on.

Just then, a figure suddenly climbed onto the broken wall on one side, and then with a flick of one hand, his whole body spread out in the air like a large bird.

He then swung through the air like a monkey, covering a distance of more than ten meters. After finding a foothold, he leaped out again.

In just a few leaps, he had already jumped dozens of meters above everyone's heads!

"Xiao Lan! Watch out!"

At that moment, another muffled cracking sound rang out, and the stone pillar on one side collapsed with a crash. Everyone around was dumbfounded. If that pillar had fallen, they would all have been crushed into mincemeat.

Xiaolan could have dodged, but instead she stepped forward and used her body to brace against the stone pillar with all her might. The girl let out a muffled groan, her slender body about to give way.

"Foolish woman!"

Just as the girl was about to give up, Miyazaki Yu was already in front of her. He roared and used his body to support the incredibly heavy stone pillar. Ran could only barely stop the falling speed, but he really held up the weight of the pillar.

"Xiaoyu, come save me!"

The girl gave him a gentle look, then shouted to the surroundings.

"Everyone, get out of the way! We can't hold out much longer!"

After everyone ran away quickly, many people couldn't help but look back. If it hadn't been for the girl and the young man blocking the pillar, many of them would be buried in the ruins now.

What happened next was something that everyone would never forget.

"Xiao Lan, hold on tight to my waist, I'm going to carry you and rush out in one breath!"

Without thinking, Xiaolan hurriedly did as she was told. Miyazaki Yu felt a tightness around his waist as the girl's delicate body embraced him tightly.

Immediately, the Hengyun Duan sword slid out of its sheath, and the blade plunged entirely into the stone pillar. Then, Miyazaki Yu swung the sword with all his might, and the blade spun around the stone pillar, slicing it open.

The stone pillar was instantly split in two!

In this way, Miyazaki Yu was left with only half a stone pillar on his shoulder. Then, Miyazaki Yu raised his knee with all his might and struck, and the half stone pillar, like a meteor, instantly broke through the roof of the hall!

"boom--"

This life-shaking event was like a meteor from outer space; all obstacles were utterly shattered by this single blow!

Taking advantage of that moment, Miyazaki Yu carried Ran on his back and rushed out instantly. Together they leaped high into the air, like birds taking flight. Under the moonlight, they looked incredibly graceful.

As they landed, they were still amidst the collapsing ruins. Each step they took was a brush with death. Miyazaki Yu moved swiftly along the collapsed walls, like an incredibly nimble kitten.

In the blink of an eye, within a dozen seconds, he had covered a great distance, seemingly weightless, navigating the turbulent waves.

In a short while, he had reached the edge of the safe zone.

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, he performed a somersault in mid-air, landing steadily on the roadside with the girl in his arms. In that instant, he stunned everyone present!

Chapter 196 Conan's Disappointment (3rd Update!)

"Wow, so handsome!"

"awesome!"

Most people didn't understand the difficulty of Miyazaki Yu's actions just now. They only saw Miyazaki Yu's incredibly dashing and handsome movements. In the blink of an eye, he took a girl and left the dangerous area.

"Xiaoyu, you scared me to death! I thought I was going to die!"

As soon as they landed, Xiaolan couldn't hold back any longer and hugged Miyazaki Yu, bursting into tears.

Although Xiaolan has seen many exciting and interesting things since she was a child because of these unlucky people, she can be considered 'well-informed'.

But this was the first time she had come so close to death; she was just a hair's breadth away from dying there.

Just when she was in her most desperate moment, this man appeared like a divine intervention, pulling her back from the brink of death, which moved her to the extreme.

Xiao Lan hugged him and cried for a moment, but then felt a warm sensation on her palm. Her heart skipped a beat, and when she looked closely, she saw blood.

It turns out that Miyazaki Yu's actions just now, which seemed effortless and graceful, were actually the result of his best efforts. When he rushed in earlier, he was unstoppable, cutting down any obstacle with a single sword stroke, whether it was a heavy door or a solid wall.

Under his sword, everything was as easily destroyed as tofu.

It was precisely because of his recklessness that he was able to arrive in time at the last moment and save Xiaolan. However, his rapid journey and frantic actions had taken a tremendous toll on his physical strength.

Especially after he just cut a stone pillar as thick as two people could hug with a single sword strike, and then used his knee to send a thousand-pound boulder flying with a single blow, achieving the effect of a catapult, directly using the half-pillar to shatter all obstacles.

The power within is terrifying beyond measure!

Compared to Makoto Kyogoku's method of smashing stone pillars with his fists and then using the pillars to leap up, this is far superior.

When he finally broke through, there were many broken sections of reinforced concrete. He ran with all his might, not paying much attention to them, and was scratched by these things, which caused his injuries.

This is why he was almost invulnerable to swords and spears at this point. If it were anyone else, they would have been turned into a bloody mess by now, thanks to these sharp steel bars.

Seeing Xiaolan's anxious expression, Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly.

"You don't need to worry about me. It's just a minor cut. I accidentally got scratched by a broken wall. Take a look."

Xiao Lan quickly checked and found that it was indeed the case. However, there was a finger-length wound on his back. The wound was not deep, but it looked rather scary.

Even so, the girl was deeply moved.

"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan, are you alright?!"

Kogoro Mouri, who had just arrived from a short distance away, shouted. Seeing that Ran was safe and sound, Kogoro was so happy that he almost shed tears.

Despite his seemingly carefree attitude, he's willing to risk his life to save Xiaolan if she's in real danger. On the way here, he saw the city hall being destroyed by an explosion, and he couldn't contain himself any longer, eager to fly over and rescue Xiaolan.

Seeing Ran safe and sound, Kogoro Mouri was deeply moved and rushed forward to hug his beloved daughter tightly, refusing to let go.

Seeing her father like this, Xiaolan felt a surge of sweetness in her heart. Her father still loved her very much, so she quickly comforted him like she was coaxing a child, which calmed him down.

"We were so grateful to Xiaoyu just now. You didn't see it, did you? You have no idea how brave Xiaoyu was. With one strike, she cut down a pillar that two people could hug, and then she actually blasted the pillar away, crashing through the roof so we could escape."

At this moment, Miyazaki Yu became serious: "Ran, if you're going to say these things to confuse the issue, just now you risked your life to block the stone pillar with your body in order to save people. If I had arrived a second later, you would have been crushed to death by now. How could you be so reckless!"

Seeing Miyazaki Yu's serious expression, Xiaolan didn't dare to argue, but just mischievously stuck out her tongue.

"Xiaoyu looks really scary when she's angry."

When Kogoro heard that his daughter had almost gotten into trouble, all to save someone, he gave her a good scolding.

"Sister Xiaolan, are you alright?"

Conan finally arrived at this moment, and two police cars rushed over together. The one he was in was blocked by the fleeing crowd, so it arrived a little later.

Ran reached out and patted Conan's head with a smile, saying, "It's alright, I'm fine now. It's just a pity that the entire Beika City Hall has been completely destroyed."

Seeing Ran standing unharmed in front of everyone, Moriya Teiji, who had arrived in the police car, could hardly believe his eyes.

"How is this possible? You actually managed to come out alive! The explosives I set up sealed off all the entrances and exits, and destroyed the weighing system. You should have been trapped inside, dying amidst the slow collapse of the building and the despair of Shinichi Kudo and this kid. How did you manage to come out alive?"

At this moment, Moriya Teiji's arm was wrapped in bandages, obviously the police had given him emergency treatment, and his old face was full of ferocity, like a wounded demon.

Miyazaki Yu sneered: "It's only natural that Xiaolan was able to come out alive, because as long as I'm here, no one and nothing can harm a single hair on her head. This is my promise, the promise of the swordsman Miyazaki Yu!"

Then, a sword light, like mercury spilling onto the ground, suddenly appeared before his pupils.

In that instant, Moriya Teiji could feel as if a huge mountain was pressing down on his spirit, causing him to completely collapse.

"Stop! Miyazaki, stop right now!"

At this moment, in everyone's eyes, Miyazaki Yu's longsword, "Horizontal Cloud Slash," was already positioned in front of Moriya Teiji, just a hair's breadth away from piercing his head completely.

No one had any doubt about the sword's sharpness.

Miyazaki Yu sneered: "I won't kill you. With the crimes you committed today, even if you aren't executed immediately, you'll never have a chance to get out. You'll spend the rest of your life atoning for your sins in prison!"

"That Miyazaki guy!"

Hearing Miyazaki Yu's resounding words, Conan sighed inwardly. Had this guy's feelings for Ran really reached this level?

The police then took the criminal away, and the fire department began to fight the fire, gradually bringing the situation under control.

Conan, still unwilling to give up, said, "Ran-neechan, didn't you have a date with Shinichi-nii today? You also had a gift to give him, right?"

Xiaolan nodded: "Yes, I have something to say to him, and tomorrow is his birthday. I originally wanted to watch a midnight movie with him before doing these things, but I didn't expect this to happen."

Moreover, Shinichi has not shown up at all. It seems that I am not as important as the case in his heart. But that's good. Shinichi has loved solving cases and reasoning since he was a child. Without me to hold him back, he can devote himself to solving cases.

That's good. He's free now, and I can let go of my resentment and start a new life. I've truly come to understand who can truly protect me.

These words struck Conan like a thunderbolt, and the light in his eyes instantly dimmed.

Chapter 197 Gin's Actions

Several days have passed in the blink of an eye, and Conan still hasn't recovered from the disappointment of that day.

He was completely dazed and confused, looking like a wilted eggplant.

There was nothing that could be done about it. Although Xiaolan didn't say it outright, with his intelligence, he understood perfectly well that Xiaolan had completely given up on him.

Xiaolan will no longer cast loving glances at him!

His heart felt like it had been ripped out, and the thought of Xiaolan's words made it hard to breathe.

If there were even the slightest hope that he could become Shinichi Kudo again, he wouldn't be in such despair.

"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan, oh..."

Conan let out a long, helpless sigh.

"Hey? Conan, why are you sighing all of a sudden? Have you been having some worries these past few days? You always seem to be sighing."

Xiao Lan happened to walk over. She was wearing a tracksuit and looked youthful and beautiful, with a faint smile in her eyes.
