Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 17 Belmode with numb scalp



Belmode was shot in the abdomen.

A large number of police cars and FBI officers appeared below St. Peter's Cathedral where Kamiya Minatsuki was.

Kamiya Mingetsu asked Belmode: "Can you still move?"

Belmod pressed his left hand on the wound on his abdomen and answered with difficulty, "I can move."

Kamiya Minazuki said quickly: "My position has been discovered. There are people from the FBI below. Before they come up, I will cover your retreat."

Kamiya Minazuki fired continuously at the blind spot where Akai Shuichi was, suppressing Akai Shuichi and not letting him come out.

Belmode took the opportunity to escape.

After seeing Belmode evacuate, Kamiya Minatsuki took back his sniper rifle and had several more grenades in his hand.

Throw all the grenades down on the corridor to the top of the cathedral.

In an instant, a violent explosion sounded, the entire St. Peter's Cathedral shook violently, and a fire broke out.

Then Kamiya Minatsuki held a bunch of grenades, flash bombs and smoke bombs, and kept throwing them from the top of the building towards the downstairs.

Explosions, flashes, and smoke continued, illuminating the dark sky in this area.

Under the powerful fire suppression, the FBI police officers had no way to reach the top floor where Kamiya Minatsuki was located.

An FBI captain picked up the radio and started calling for help: "Encountered heavy fire! There may be more than one person on the other side! Helicopter support is needed!"

At this time, the sky was filled with smoke, and the situation of St. Peter's Basilica could not be seen clearly.

And Kamiya Minatsuki took advantage of the smoke filling St. Peter's Cathedral to go downstairs.

During this period, Kamiya Minatsuki knocked out one of the FBI officers, put on his clothes and went downstairs, and left St. Peter's Cathedral lightly among the chaotic crowd.

Kamiya Minatsuki, who had evacuated, tried to contact Bellmos.

But no matter how I called, I couldn't get in touch.

At this time, Belmos was on the run.

Shuichi Akai is in hot pursuit.

Belmod chose to escape to a place with a lot of people, trying to get rid of Shuichi Akai.

Belmod, who kept moving through the crowd, successfully got rid of Shuichi Akai.

However, due to the severe pain in the abdomen and excessive blood loss, Belmode no longer had much physical strength.

So Belmode ran into the alley and entered an abandoned building.

the other side.

The performance at the Ghost Theater has officially ended.

As Kamiya Minayuki expected, a murder occurred in the Ghost Theater.

Under Kudo Shinichi's reasoning, the prisoner was successfully found.

The culprit is none other than actress Rose.

The deceased was actor Keith.

The outrageous motive for the murder of actress Rose was because Keith would no longer play the angel role of Mikael in the stage play due to movie contracts.

And Rose killed Keith in order to keep Keith's character Mikael alive in her heart forever.

After the case was over, Kudo Yukiko went to the police station to take a statement.

Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan called a taxi and headed to the hotel.

When the taxi was halfway through, the handkerchief Belmod gave to Mao Lilan as Sharon flew out of the car window.

In order to find this handkerchief, Mao Lilan stopped the taxi and went to look for the handkerchief.

Kudo Shinichi found the handkerchief hooked on the guardrail of the abandoned building. Kudo Shinichi asked Mao Lilan to stand there and wait for him while he went to pick up the handkerchief.

And this abandoned building is the building where Belmode is located.

While Mao Lilan was waiting for Kudo Shinichi, a Japanese man with long hair walked up to her.

And this Japanese is none other than Shuichi Akai, who came after Belmode.

The powerful aura exuded by Akai Shuichi made Mao Lilan fearful.

The taxi driver stuck his head out in horror and shouted at Mao Lilan: "Miss! Get in the car quickly! He must be the serial murderer!"

Mao Lilan was too scared to move.

The taxi driver decisively abandoned Mao Lilan, stepped on the accelerator and fled the scene.

Seeing Akai Shuichi standing in front of her, Mao Lilan's body trembled with fear.

Akai Shuichi frowned and asked, "Are you Japanese?"

Mao Lilan said subconsciously: "Yes!"

Akai Shuichi continued to ask: "Have you seen a suspicious man, a Japanese with long hair dyed silver and a beard?"

Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Akai Shuichi's question. This was not like a question that a murderer could ask.

Mao Lilan answered truthfully: "No, I didn't see this person."

At this time, a speeding car heard Akai Shuichi behind him, and a man wearing FBI clothes got out of the car.

"Akai, have you found that guy?"

"No, she probably didn't come to this street."

After Akai Shuichi finished answering, he grabbed Mao Lilan's arm and said: "It's too dangerous here. Turn right at the corner in front and it will lead to the road. You can call a taxi there."

Kudo Shinichi entered the abandoned building and has not returned yet. How could Mao Lilan leave? After breaking free from Akai Shuichi's hand, he explained: "But I want to wait for a friend here. He and I are classmates in the first grade of high school."

"Then I'll warn you and your friends again, get out of here! Get out of this place immediately!" Shuichi Akai warned sternly.

The FBI officer asked Akai Shuichi: "Are we going to keep this girl here?"

"The area around here has been sealed off, and she has escaped. There is a high probability that she will not be here anymore. How is the situation over there?"

"The partners over there encountered very strong fire resistance. It was estimated that there were at least three people. However, after the helicopter support arrived, no one was found."

Akai Shuichi smiled slightly: "I can confirm that there is only one person, and that guy is still as powerful as ever..."

...

Mao Lilan, who understands English, heard the conversation between Akai Shuichi and the FBI and believed that the Road Devil was nearby.

Worried, Mao Lilan walked into the abandoned building and planned to ask Kudo Shinichi to leave together.

Belmode, who was hiding in an abandoned building, heard footsteps and thought Shuichi Akai was following him. He kept trying to contact Minazuki Kamiya but couldn't. He took out the miniature earphones in his ears and found that the earphones were damaged.

Belmod had no choice but to pick up his pistol and plan to carry out a sneak attack.

When the footsteps got closer and closer, Belmode suddenly appeared and planned to shoot, but found out that it was Kudo Shinichi who had entered the building in search of a handkerchief.

Belmod immediately put down his pistol and ran towards the stairs, holding back the pain in his abdomen.

Kudo Shinichi was startled by the sudden appearance of Belmode.

At this time, Belmod has not yet taken off his disguise, and is still the image of a silver-haired murderer.

Kudo Shinichi immediately realized that this man was the Road Demon, and chased him regardless of the fact that he had a gun.

At this time, Mao Lilan was coming up from downstairs. When he heard the noise, he thought it was Kudo Shinichi and happily went up to him.

But the one waiting was not Kudo Shinichi, but Belmod, who was disguised as a silver-haired murderer and holding a pistol.

Kudo Shinichi, who was worried about Mao Lilan's injury, shouted: "Xiaolan, run away! He is the road devil!"

Belmod's scalp is numb now.

The person who found him was not Akai Shuichi, but his friend's son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law.

Don't you see you have a gun?

How dare you catch up? !
