Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

In the shadows, an old man walked out slowly with a samurai sword in his hand.

Conan recognized that this was the old man who had followed them all the way here, Grenada.

He had seen the calluses on the old man's hands on the boat before, and he guessed at that time that the old man was a master of Iaido, but he never expected that the other party's strength would be so terrifying!

Break the gun with one knife!

The last time I saw such strength was with Lupin the Third’s companion, Ishikawa Goemon.

This is trouble.

At the same time, a barrier rose around Karasuma Renya, like a circular door, isolating everyone outside. Then, a mechanical voice without any emotion began to remind: "Preparing for launch, countdown, 60 seconds, beep - beep -"

"He's going to run!"

Matsuda Jinpei shouted anxiously, and the knife in front of him was about to grazed his nose and slashed down. Matsuda Jinpei took a step back, then pulled out the knife at his waist and barely held on: "Conan, I'll hold him back, you think of a way - if all else fails, blow that thing up!"

"No, we can't blow it up again. If we blow it up again, this place will definitely collapse and we won't be able to escape!" Conan was so anxious that he was running around, and his eyes finally fell on an instrument next to him.

etc--

Isn’t this... the last door?

The last trump card to save my life...

Conan rushed over, stood on tiptoe and searched the instrument back and forth, and finally saw a groove.

At this moment, Green Chat's face flashed through Conan's mind again.

Green Chat hadn't lied to them! That really was the key to the last door!

No wonder, no wonder that after so many years, it has only been repaired and not replaced - this door is actually Karasuma Renya's escape hatch, connecting Karasuma Renya's location and the front end of the fortress, making it convenient for Karasuma Renya to escape directly!

But the question is, who has the key now?

Seeing Conan approaching the instrument over there, Grenada narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered: "Naive."

Then he swung the long sword in his hand horizontally, glancing past Matsuda Jinpei's left arm.

"hiss--"

The blade was so sharp that blood oozed from his left arm before Matsuda Jinpei felt any pain.

He didn't dare to be careless, and didn't even dare to distract himself to check his wounds. He stared at the old man in front of him with cold eyes, and his teeth were grinding.

"Damn old thing, if you have the guts, drop the knife and let's have a fight!"

With such a long knife, you are bullying others with short weapons, right?

Grenada didn't say anything, but just put the knife back into the sheath again, lowered his body slightly, and stared at Matsuda Jinpei with burning eyes.

At this moment, all the hairs around Matsuda Jinpei stood up.

It was a sense of danger that was instinctively aroused.

"Shh-"

Grenada drew his sword, but this time his movements were even faster, almost turning into a shadow. Even though Matsuda Jinpei was concentrating on guarding against it, he still felt a chill at the speed of the sword.

"Zheng——"

The cold weapons collided with each other, making a cold sound.

A figure suddenly appeared!

Even in the dim room, the burly man wearing sunglasses held up the long sword in his hand, stood firmly in front of Matsuda Jinpei, and easily took the sword.

Jinpei Matsuda quickly took a few steps back, still feeling a little frightened.

With such a fast knife, it was really hard for him to escape unscathed!

Grenada took a big step back, staring at the "Vodka" in front of him in astonishment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Can you use a knife?"

Bai Chuanqiu waved the long sword in his hand, glanced at it casually, and said calmly: "Sword? I don't know how to use it, but there's nothing I can do. You all use swords, so I'll do as the locals do~"

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward, interrupted Grenada's next words, and stabbed Grenada fiercely.

Grenada saw that this was a master swordsman, and immediately raised his hand to block, while jumping back, trying to create distance between himself and Baichuanqiu.

However, Baichuan Qiu would not give him a chance to breathe, and continued to move forward quickly. He used the long knife in his hand as if it were a long sword and went straight for the opponent's vital point.

On his skill panel, the skill label belonging to [Sword Master] also slowly lit up.

Grenada did not dare to be careless and focused on taking the attack, fighting with Baichuanqiu.

At this time, Amuro Toru also arrived. He looked at the two people fighting over there and was quite confused, but he still rushed to Conan first: "What's going on?"

"The key!" Conan looked up anxiously. "Where is the key that Mr. Moruobushi got?"

Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled off the necklace around his neck—

Before going on this mission, Morofushi Kagemitsu gave the necklace to Amuro Toru. Because the shape of the necklace was very deceptive, Amuro Toru simply put it on his neck and hid it in his clothes. No one noticed it along the way.

And now, it comes in handy!

"Great!"

Conan was overjoyed and reached out to take it, but at this moment, Rum and his men arrived.

“It’s actually here!”

Looking at the situation in front of him, Rum instantly guessed what had happened. He looked at Matsuda Jin and his usual expression changed: "Why are you here?"

This damn policeman! Why is he here?

Rum has not forgotten how all the injuries on his body came about - it was all thanks to this guy!

Without hesitation, Rum raised his hand and pointed directly at Matsuda Jinpei: "Kill him for me——"

As soon as Jinpei Matsuda saw Rum, his heart was already alarmed, and Toru Amuro raised his hand worriedly, ready to save the situation.

But at this moment, another gunshot was heard from somewhere, and the only light above everyone's heads went out.

The entire space suddenly fell into darkness.

In the corner, the man who raised his hand to shoot narrowed his eyes, and his deep green eyes easily locked onto the person in the dark.

Rum's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously pulled the people around him to block in front of him.

Sure enough, after a few gunshots, the person who blocked the bullet for him died on the spot.

At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Rum's mind, and he also had the idea of ​​retreating.

The appearance of that policeman here means that this place is no longer safe.

The official is definitely on the way!

No, I absolutely cannot be caught, otherwise it will be all over——

Rum turned quietly and retreated in the darkness.

But these still did not escape Gin's eyes. The man smiled coldly, raised his hand and prepared to shoot again, but suddenly heard a strange noise beside him.

Gin immediately shifted the muzzle of his gun and pointed it in the direction of Karasuma Renya—

It turned out that Conan had successfully pressed the necklace in his hand into the groove in the darkness.

This necklace actually contains a very small chip, which becomes useless instantly once connected, but it also successfully starts the program panel in front of it.

Conan studied it and found that once this escape system is activated, it cannot be stopped... But he can open the hatch in the middle and drag Karasuma Renya out before the launch!

In order to prevent Karasuma Renya from escaping in the chaos, Conan didn't have time to think about it and decisively pressed the button to open the escape hatch that Karasuma Renya was preparing to use to escape.

But what he didn't expect was that while the mantis was stalking the cicada, the oriole was unaware of the situation behind it.

At this moment, the old man hiding in the escape pod looked at the silver-haired man in front of him with surprise and horror.

Gin had never thought that he could get such a bargain. A cold smile appeared on his face, and he pulled the trigger directly——

But before the Beretta in his hand could fire the bullet, a bullet from another gun pierced the old man's forehead.

"boom--"

Blood instantly splattered on the old man's head.

How ironic—

——It turns out this guy’s blood is also warm and fresh.
