Chapter 1141 The Missing Hong Shu (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)
"What?! You brought Hongshu to Qunma County?!"
At 10 o'clock in the evening, the dark clouds that had been brewing for a long time finally began to rain lightly. Conan and the others stood under the tree cover and looked at Sakaki with dumbfounded eyes:
"No, he is only 12 years old! Do you have any humanity in leaving him alone in a barren mountain?"
Although there are two children in the team, Conan and Akai Mari are actually very young and have the ability to survive independently. Even if they are left behind, there will be no problem. Hongshu is different. He looks 12 years old on the outside, but is 12 years old on the inside. Also 12 years old.
What age is 12 years old?
Just graduated from elementary school.
Only Sakaki Cheng could do such an extremely cruel thing as leaving a child who had just graduated from elementary school in the deep mountains and forests.
"You can't blame me! There was a scuffle in the villa when I arrived. It's too dangerous to bring Hong Shu with me, so we can only let him hide first!"
As everyone rushed towards the villa, they listened to Sakaki's quibbles:
"Then I chased him into the basement. I originally planned to rescue you and then go back to look for him, but Mr. Anda blew up the tunnel with a bomb. At the critical moment, I got into the tunnel and came to look for you. I accidentally eh."
His voice became softer and softer, and by the end, Sakaki felt a little unconfident.
He was indeed careless, as he was still thinking about Hongshu before the explosion, but when the old butler revealed the clue to the Boss...
Hongshu flew away with a 'whoosh' from his head.
Numb.
People are numb.
Sakaki seemed to be able to imagine Hongshu carrying a bag, frightened, huddled in a ball and sobbing in the corner.
She was probably crying and scolding him at the same time.
If possible, Sakaki Cheng did not want to bring Hongshu to Gunma County, but without him, he would not be able to find clues about Miss Miyano and the others, so he could only find a way to make up for it afterwards.
Even if Hongshu was snatched away by a wolf, he would still have to bravely break into the wolf's den!
The exit of the tunnel was almost 1,000 meters away from the villa. By the time everyone rushed back to the villa, it was already 15 minutes later.
At this moment, a full hour had passed since Sakaki entered the villa.
"Hongshu might be outside the villa, let's look for him separately!"
Sakaki Cheng gave an order, and everyone divided into two groups and began to look around the walls of the villa for Hong Shu. However, after searching around, they didn't see even a ghost.
The rain washed away the footprints on the ground, and Hong Shu didn't know where he went. He neither hid under the tree to take shelter from the rain, nor appeared in the villa.
"It's not like he was really picked up by a wolf."
A stream of cold sweat ran down Sakaki's face.
"There are no wolves or ferocious beasts around here."
The haggard-looking woman said:
"I'm afraid he was taken away by someone else."
Ohta Shozo!
All the enemies in the villa had been killed by Sakaki Cheng a long time ago, and there was no way anyone would be left alive. As for who would be active near the villa at this late hour, it was only Ota Shozo who took him and Hongshu into the mountains!
Could it be that I made a mistake?
Is Ota Shozo actually the Boss's spy in Fujimi Village?
No, it's impossible.
If Ota Shozo is really a subordinate of the Boss, his life will never be in poverty. The Boss's method of buying people's hearts has always been money. The backbone and younger members of the black organization enjoy generous treatment. This is the most basic thing. Who would give up? Working for an unscrupulous boss?
Ota Shozo's poverty is not disguised. Sakaki is 100% sure of this. As long as you observe carefully, you will find that there is a clear difference between people who are truly poor and those who pretend to be poor.
Say it again
It was Sakaki Makoto and the others who took the initiative to find Shozo Ohta. If Shozo Ohta had a problem, the proprietress of the hotel must also have a problem. Even if Sakaki Makoto made a mistake once, could he make a mistake a second time?
It's wrong both emotionally and rationally.
Although Hongshu is young, he is very smart and will not be stupid enough to leave with a stranger. If Sakaki Cheng asks him to find a place to hide, he will definitely follow the instructions.
But judging from the current situation, the only one who can take Hongshu away is Ota Shozo.
"Look! There's a light there!"
While everyone was meditating, Conan suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the hillside in the distance. In the drizzle, a light spot floated and drifted with the wind, just like an ancient traveler holding an oil lamp while walking in the mountains in the strong wind, swaying.
"You go back to the villa first, brother Kidd, come with me and have a look!"
Kidd, who stood behind the crowd with a low presence, sighed when he heard this, and walked out dejectedly, following Sakaki Makoto towards the hillside.
He was shameless. When he went to the villa this time, he should have been the most vigilant person to guard him, but no one expected that the enemy would touch him during dinner. By the time Kidd realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.
Otherwise, Conan and the others should still be able to fight, at least until Sakaki Cheng arrives.
In order to prevent the other party from noticing, Sakaki turned off the flashlight and walked up the hillside with Kidd in the dark. The rain covered the sound of footsteps and the two quickly approached the light.
"Mr. Ota, did you make this cake yourself?"
There was chatter in front of him. Sakaki raised his hand to stop Kidd and listened.
"Yes, hunters who go into the mountains will bring a few pieces of dry food in case of emergencies. How does it taste?"
“It tastes bad.”
Hongshu stuck out his tongue:
“It’s like there’s sand kneaded in it.”
"Oh, it does have sand in it."
"ah?!"
"Don't be afraid. You won't get sick after eating it. It's just a little bit of sand. I washed it two or three times."
"Why do you put sand in the cake?"
"Because it can resist hunger, and eating a little sand can prevent you from having diarrhea caused by fever due to injury. Secondly, it can reduce the number of times you excrete, so that wild animals cannot smell your scent. Except for the bad taste, there are basically no disadvantages. When surviving in the wild, any mistake may cause you to lose your life. It is always right to be careful."
"Then you still drink?"
"Gulp. Drinking is to dispel the cold. Drinking a little wine on a rainy day warms the body and gives courage."
"Give me a sip too."
"Are you over 20?"
"Yes."
"."
Hearing this, Makoto Sakaki and Kid looked at each other, and their tense muscles relaxed a lot.
Judging from this posture, Hongshu should be safe. He has food and drink, and can joke around. He is more comfortable than them.
Turning on the flashlight, Makoto Sakaki took Kid out of the woods and came to Ohta Shozo.
"Oh, you're back!"
Seeing Makoto Sakaki, Hongshu immediately threw away the dry biscuits in his hand and ran over:
"Is everything done?"
"Of course."
Makoto Sakaki patted his head, looked at Ota Shozo who was sitting on the stone, and invited him:
"If Mr. Ota doesn't mind, why don't you come with us to the villa and sit for a while, just to avoid the rain."
"Okay."
The drunk Ota Shozo readily agreed, jumped off the stone, picked up the shotgun beside him, and walked towards the villa with Makoto Sakaki.
