The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

Otherwise, they wouldn't have set up the ski area halfway up the mountain.

Heiji Hattori was silent for a moment, then asked about the current progress of the rescue.

It was later learned that there were occasional aftershocks on the snow-capped mountain, and the snowfall was getting heavier, making the rescue work slow.

Because of the earthquake, avalanches occurred in more than one direction.

Avalanches also occur on other sides of the same snow-capped mountain, not to mention that the other side is surrounded by mountains.

Amidst the chaotic impact of the snow, it's difficult to predict which area Kazuha will be taken to.

As night falls, the chances of survival for those buried by the avalanche are slim.

Hattori Heiji's face grew increasingly gloomy.

He then asked Conan to take him to find Ran and Sonoko.

"What did you mean when you said before that Kazuha would be alright?"

Once he calmed down, Heiji Hattori remembered what Ran Mouri had said when she dragged him away.

Ran Mouri sighed, "At the time, I was thinking of asking Mr. Itake for help with the rescue after I got down the mountain."

"Mr. Yizhu also has the ability to find people; he once helped me find my kidnapped mother."

"But now, Mr. Yizhu has also gone missing..."

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

The last glimmer of hope in Hattori Heiji's eyes dimmed.

He had thought Ran Mouri might have some good ideas, but instead she brought up that swindler again.

That swindler can't even protect himself, yet he claims to be a fortune teller; he's truly a laughingstock.

Heiji Hattori didn't want to mention Itake Karuta anymore, preferring to focus his attention on devising rescue methods.

And then,

Beneath the deep snow piled up by avalanches

Izuki Karuta was holding Kazuha, who had regained consciousness.

Both of them had difficulty falling asleep.

Within an hour of the avalanche

Izuki Karuta found Kazuha by relying on the remaining malevolent energy.

I don't know if Kazuha was lucky or unlucky.

To say she was lucky is an understatement; she was actually quite unlucky and was buried in an avalanche.

In terms of bad luck, Kazuha was buried in an extremely lucky location.

Two fallen trees nearby created a small space, which is why He Ye has managed to survive until now without suffocating.

But Kazuha's condition was no better; her hands and feet were terribly cold, and she was already in a coma, suffering from dangerous hypothermia.

To make matters worse, Kazuha's body temperature caused nearby snowflakes to melt, water to get into her clothes, and then the water to freeze again.

After finding Kazuha, Izuki Karuta immediately began a series of first aid measures.

An hour later, Kazuha gradually regained consciousness.

However, the light was dim and the snow was deep, so the light was insufficient and Kazuha could not see anything clearly.

"You saved me?"

Kazuha's limbs have not yet regained much sensation.

But I vaguely remember being swept away by the avalanche and buried, and then frozen into a coma.

And now, it seems that her back is against something warm.

"Yes."

"Don't forget my 100 million yen reward."

"Itsuki Karuta whispered in Kazuha's ear."

"It's, it's you?!"

"That transporter, Izuki Karuta?!"

Kazuha found it hard to believe.

"Yes, it's me."

"I found you nearby when I was preparing to escape."

"I just happened to save you."

Izuki Shizuta explained in a calm tone.

It sounds like a very trivial thing.

But for Itsuki Karuta, the avalanche was indeed insignificant.

This is just a minor way of personifying misfortune.

When the avalanche came, Izuki Karuta climbed directly into a tree.

When the tree trunk was crushed by the heavy snow, Izuki Shizuta used his evil aura to protect himself, letting the snow lead the way.

This is the most economical way to conserve negative energy.

When the avalanche stopped, Itake Sumita emerged from the deep snow.

By focusing the evil energy at one's feet, one can easily walk on water, and walking on snow is even easier.

The bad luck caused by the 2 units of negative energy absorbed at the airport was almost completely negated when the tire blew out.

However, after absorbing 10 units of malevolent energy from Hamano, he absorbed nearly 30 units of malevolent energy at the foot of the mountain today.

Even if the impact is only 50%, the misfortune corresponding to the evil energy is nearly 200,000, enough for an ordinary person to die two or three times.

Under the influence of "fate," the probability of low-probability disasters occurring increases significantly.

In addition, Itake Karuta's accidental skiing directly triggered an earthquake and avalanche.

However, Izuki Karita felt no guilt whatsoever.

After all, there are already many unlucky people on the snow mountain today. Even if he hadn't come, a similar avalanche would still have happened.

Especially He Ye, with over 7 units of malevolent energy, is destined to suffer misfortune.

Fortunately, Izuki Karuta arrived in time.

They rescued her before the evil aura around her had completely dissipated.

Now, He Ye's malevolent energy has dwindled to just over 3, but it's better than nothing.

With over 7 units of malevolent energy, they were not yet at the point of death.

If he doesn't save Kazuha, she will be saved by someone else or by herself.

It would be better to save Kazuha while we're at it; we could at least gain some malevolent energy and the gratitude of a beautiful woman.

Were we buried under very deep snow?

Is there still a chance of rescue?

After thanking Izuki Karuta for saving her life, Kazuha wanted to inquire about the current situation and the escape plan.

As for the cell phone, Kazuha couldn't find it after being caught in the avalanche, and he was even missing one of his shoes.

"It was indeed buried in deep snow."

"I will definitely survive."

"But it's already dark, let's go to sleep first."

Izuki Karuta was capable enough to immediately take Kazuha away from here.

However, the misfortune brought by the evil energy has already been triggered, and judging by the amount, it will last for at least two days.

If you rush to leave now, you'll probably get caught up in other unexpected situations later.

I might as well stay here and kill some time, or take a nap first.

Once my mental energy is fully restored, I will absorb the malevolent energy from Kazuha's body.

A few minutes later,

Just as Izuki Karuta was about to fall asleep.

"Where did all my clothes go?!"

"you you you you……"

"Are you putting me inside your clothes now?"

Kazuha spoke in a flustered manner.

After regaining consciousness, Kazuha gradually regained sensation in her limbs.

Then she realized that the warm thing behind her was Izuki Karita's embrace, without any gaps or cover.
