Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Yoshiki Nigaki smiled and nodded, then patted Seimei Suzuki's head and said, "Little brother, you have a very good eye for observation~"

Chapter 375 Love Without Concealment Will Lead to Destruction

Yoshiki Futagaki said, "Alright, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to go to work."

"Nagaki, it's great that you're so enthusiastic about investigating, but don't get too carried away. Be careful not to let the Snow Woman bewitch you and get lost in the forest!"

A somewhat amused voice suddenly rang out, and two tall, beautiful young women followed closely behind as they walked down the stairs from the second floor.

One of them was wearing a purple sweater and had shoulder-length brown curly hair; her pretty face was full of playful and teasing expressions.

Another short-haired beauty, wearing a yellow hoodie and light-colored jeans, looked at Yoshiki Futagaki with eyes full of tenderness.

"o(n_n)o haha~"

Upon hearing this, Yoshiki Nigaki couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't worry, if that Yuki-onna tries to give me chocolate, I'll just tell her that I already have a woman named Ayako."

As soon as Yoshiki Nigaki finished speaking, he reached out and put his arm around the short-haired beauty's slender waist, and in front of everyone, he kissed her red lips.

ヽ(ー_ー)ノ

Upon seeing this, Suzuki Seimei's lips twitched slightly.

Showing off your love will lead to a quick breakup!

It seems that Yoshitaka Nigaki has never heard of this saying. Considering the [Lifespan] reward that Seimei Suzuki just received from him, he really is someone whose death is clearly imminent.

?(????w????)?

The short-haired beauty blushed slightly and gave Nigaki Yoshiki a somewhat embarrassed look: "Yoshiki, you really are something~"

"Then I'll be going now!"

Yoshiki Futagaki smiled and waved his hand, then walked alone into the nearby woods.

Watching Yoshiki Nigaki's retreating figure, Seimei Suzuki walked to the short-haired beauty's side, feigning curiosity as he tugged at her hand and asked, "Big sister, what is that big brother going to film?"

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully signing in to Gan Liya. You are rewarded with 1 speed point, which you can claim at any time."

The moment Suzuki Seimei touched the short-haired beauty, a completely emotionless system notification sounded.

Gan Liya leaned down to look at Suzuki Haruaki, a gentle smile on her pretty face, and said, "Actually, the purpose of our trip here is to film the legendary island nation's wild wolf."

"Island nation's wild wolf?"

"That's right! They haven't been seen for nearly a hundred years since they were captured in 1905, and now they are on the list of extinct mammals."

Before Gan Liya could answer, a burly, bearded man with a hunting rifle slung over his shoulder came down from the second floor and said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "There are rumors that wild wolves from the island nation used to roam this mountain, which is why hunters like me and photographers like them come here to stay."

Ai Haibara glanced at the hunting rifle on the bearded man's back and couldn't help but remark, "Hunting extinct and endangered animals can land you in jail for life."

"Little sister, I'm not using this shotgun to hunt Japanese wolves, I'm just using it to scare them into traps."

"If we could capture the island nation's wolves alive and sell them to zoos, we could definitely make a fortune..."

The bearded man was only halfway through his sentence when he suddenly noticed Black Whirlwind lying at Ai Haibara's feet. He frowned and asked, "How come there are black bears in this mountain?"

Although Black Whirlwind is just a cub, such cubs are often accompanied by an adult female bear.

If there are indeed adult black bears in this mountain, then the level of danger would be raised to another level.

"Black Whirlwind is my pet; it wasn't born in this mountain."

Seeing the bearded man's solemn expression, Ai Haibara could guess what he was thinking and quickly explained.

"pet?"

Upon hearing this, the bearded man was slightly taken aback, then glanced at Suzuki Seimei and the others, a look of sudden realization flashing in his eyes.

A family that can keep a black bear as a pet is definitely not an ordinary family.

Furthermore, given the attire of Kurosaki Tamaka and Inoue Ryuichi, they are clearly personal maids and bodyguards.

They always bring maids and bodyguards when they go out for fun; Suzuki Seimei and his friends must be from some wealthy family.

Although the bearded man was somewhat surprised, he didn't care too much. As long as they didn't interfere with his capture of the island nation's wild wolves, that was fine.

"Boss lady, I'll leave my friend to you when he arrives. I'm going to take a walk in the forest first."

After finishing his sentence, the bearded man left the cabin alone and quickly disappeared into the nearby woods.

"These people are really bewitched by that wild wolf. Going into the mountains at this time is very dangerous."

Watching the bearded man's departing figure, Chiyoko Yuasa shook her head helplessly, then turned to Ayako Kanari and said, "Ayako, I'm going to the forest now to pay my respects to my husband."

If Mr. Sakami's friend comes, please let him stay in the room next to Mr. Sakami's.

Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri asked with a worried expression, "Boss lady, isn't it too dangerous for you to go into the mountains alone?"

"It's alright. This mountain is like my own backyard to me, and I'll have Saburo to go with me!"

"Saburo?"

Under Ran Mouri's questioning gaze, Chiyoko Yuasa put her finger to her lips and let out a sharp whistle.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

As the whistle blew, a gray-white husky came running from behind the cabin, wagging its tail happily around Chiyoko Yuasa.

"Good boy/girl~"

Chiyoko Yuasa smiled and patted Saburo's head, then led him into the nearby forest.

Seeing this, Sonoko couldn't help but complain, "There are rumors that there are Japanese wolves in this mountain. Could it be that someone mistook that dog for a Japanese wolf?"

Gan Liya said, "No way! Because the eyewitnesses saw the island nation's wolves at 10 p.m.

To prevent Saburo from getting lost in the dark, Aunt Yuasa would lock him in a cage to sleep every night.

"Oh, I see!"

The curly-haired beauty in the purple sweater smiled and suggested, "Since Aunt Yuasa isn't here, let's make our own chocolate. The kitchen has all the ingredients we need."

"Okay!"

Sonoko and the others came to Fukitoyama-sou to make magical heart-shaped chocolates, so naturally they wouldn't refuse the suggestion.

Led by Kanari and the others, Sonoko and her friends excitedly entered the kitchen and began making chocolate.

According to the customs of this island nation, girls give chocolates to boys on Valentine's Day, so Suzuki Seimei and Conan did not go into the kitchen to join in the fun.

While Suzuki Haruaki and Conan were playing video games in the room, Inoue Ryuichi had thoroughly searched the cabin and devised several optimal escape routes.

Chapter 376 It's Gone When You Close Your Eyes

Professional bodyguards like Ryuichi Inoue are able to familiarize themselves with their surroundings as soon as they arrive in a new and unfamiliar environment.

In this way, even if they encounter any sudden danger, Inoue Ryuichi can escape with Suzuki Seimei as quickly as possible.

After a few hours of getting to know each other, Sonoko and the others became familiar with Kanariko and learned some things from them.

The beautiful woman with long, curly hair was named Mika Konakawa. She was a good friend of Riyako Kanari and also a photographer.

Besides Yoshiki Futagaki, Mika Funaka and her friends also had another photographer friend.

The photographer's name is Kanari Natsuya. He is Kanari Riyako's older brother and also Konakawa Mika's boyfriend.

Unfortunately, Ganrisha also perished in an avalanche four years ago, as did the owner of Fukito Mountain Villa.

Saburo found the body of the owner of Fukitoyama Villa a week after the avalanche and dug it out of the snow.

However, Amari Natsuya's body was never found.

Because they had not found Amari Natsuya's body, Mika and the others still held onto a sliver of hope.

Of course!

Gan Liya also knew that her brother's chances of survival were slim, otherwise he would have come back to find her long ago.

Therefore, Ganliya and the others built a cenotaph for Ganlixia on the mountain, and they would come to worship him at this time every year.

The chess-themed chocolates made by Mika Funaka were meant as a sacrifice for Natsuya Amari, because chess was his favorite game during his lifetime.

"The snow outside seems to be falling heavier and heavier. Why hasn't Eryuan come back yet?"

Looking at the heavy snow falling outside the window, and with Yoshiki Futagaki still not back, Yoshiko Kanari couldn't help but show a worried expression.

After thinking for a moment, Konakawa Mika said, "Ayako, it's getting dark soon. I think we should go find Nigaki. Maybe he's run into some trouble?"

"it is good."

Gan Liya nodded, called out to Ran and the others, and the two women went out to look for someone.

"Eryuan, where are you? Eryuan, can you hear me? If you can, answer me quickly..."

Just as Mika Funaka was anxiously searching for Yoshiki Nigaki in the woods, Riyako Kanari, with murderous intent in her eyes, rushed towards the place she had agreed to meet Yoshiki Nigaki.

That's right!

The reason why Yoshiki Futagaki hadn't returned so late wasn't because he had encountered any accident, but because he was waiting for Amariyako at the agreed-upon place.

However, what Yoshiki Futagaki didn't know was that when Ryoko Kanari asked him to meet her in a secluded forest, it wasn't to play any exciting games, but to kill him to avenge her brother.

Gan Liya had always believed that her brother had died in an avalanche, but she never imagined that the truth was not so.

Because Gan Liya and Futaki Yoshiki are a couple, and today is Valentine's Day, she was very curious about what gift Futaki Yoshiki had prepared for her, so she couldn't help but secretly rummage through his luggage.

As it turned out, Gan Liya actually found a videotape in a hidden compartment of his backpack.

Gan Liya thought that the videotape was a gift that Futagaki Yoshiki had prepared for her, so she secretly began to watch it.

However, what Gan Liya didn't expect was that the contents of this videotape were not the romantic everyday video she imagined, but the video of her brother and the hotel owner's deaths.

According to the videotape, Kanari Natsuya had injured his leg at the time, and the hotel owner was trying to save him when they were both buried in the avalanche.

Judging from the location where Yoshiki Nigaki filmed the video, he was only a dozen meters away from Amarisha at the time.

If Yoshiki Futagaki had chosen to help, he and the innkeeper could have rescued Amarisha before the avalanche broke out.

Unfortunately, Yoshiki Futagaki chose to stand by and watch helplessly as Natsuya Amari and the others were swallowed up by the avalanche.
