Chapter 692 The Cursed Demon Dog Appears
"That, that, that, that is... a demon dog???!!!"
Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha were so frightened that their legs went limp. They hugged each other as if asking for help, staring at the ball of fire - they had already seen clearly that the ball of fire was a running dog.
Isn’t that the cursed demon dog in the legend?
"Run!" Miyano Shiho reminded loudly and pulled the two of them hard.
Although she didn't believe in any cursed demon dogs, the burning flames and the jumping flames left on the ground after the demon dog ran past showed that even if this was not a demon dog, it was definitely very dangerous!
Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha finally reacted. They screamed and turned to run away, not even caring about Xiao Hachi who was standing beside them.
Xiao Ba seemed to feel threatened, or perhaps he wanted to buy time for the three to escape, so he kept barking at the demon dog, but the latter had no intention of paying any attention to him. He didn't even look at him as he passed by and continued to chase Miyano Shiho and the others.
Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha have been training for a long time, so their speed and physical strength are not too bad, but Miyano Shiho is not so good.
He was originally a scientist who stayed at home, and because of the tight pace, he was inevitably a little confused, and gradually fell behind.
But the footsteps behind me were getting closer and closer.
"Mio! Be careful behind you!" Ran Mouri looked back and saw that Miyano Shiho was far behind them and was almost caught up by the demon dog, so she quickly reached out her hand to pull her up.
Miyano Shiho subconsciously looked back and saw that the demon dog was very close to her, so close that it could pounce and knock her to the ground with just one leap.
She turned around and reached out her hand towards Mao Lilan, but she felt pain in her foot. She kicked something and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Mio-chan!" X2
Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha were startled and quickly stopped and turned around to support Miyano Shiho.
But the demon dog would not stop just because its target fell, it would even chase it even more vigorously.
"Hurry, get up quickly! We're almost at the entrance!" Mao Lilan shouted. The situation was critical and her sister-in-law was in danger. She burst out with great strength and "lifted" Miyano Shiho up from the ground.
There was no time to be surprised at the strength of Mouri Ran. Seeing that the demon dog was about to catch up, Miyano Shiho took out the bottle of anesthetic that she always carried with her from her pocket and threw it at a stone in front of the demon dog.
"Bang!" The anesthetic bottle exploded, and the liquid inside instantly vaporized, turning into a cloud of smoke that blocked the demon dog's way.
Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha stared blankly at the cloud of anesthetic smoke - Mio-chan carries this kind of thing with her?
"Hurry up! This thing may not be useful against the demon dog!" Miyano Shiho shouted, pulling Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha and continued to run towards the entrance.
"boom!"
The three of them finally rushed into the house and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
Suddenly they noticed someone behind them, and turned around to see that it was Inubushi Yukihime and four others, who seemed to be trying to go out.
Seeing the panic of the three people, Inufu Koko asked in surprise: "What happened? Why are you making so much noise?"
"It's a demon dog!" said Mao Lilan breathlessly.
"The demon dog appeared in the yard!" Yuanshan Heye shouted.
Miyano Shiho didn't say anything. After calming her breathing, she secretly observed the four people, but she didn't find anything. She only heard the shock after the demon dog appeared.
Inufu Zen, who was the least skeptical of the demon dog, also laughed at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. How could it appear in the yard?"
"Really! We all saw it!" Mao Lilan argued loudly.
Inufushi Yukihime's expression changed: "Did it jump over the wall?!"
Inufu Koko's eyes widened: "How is it possible! Don't say such stupid things..."
Inufushi Chiaki said with a frightened face: "Anyway, anyway, it's very dangerous outside now, everyone, don't go out!"
Suddenly, Xiao Ba's voice was heard outside the door.
"It's Xiaoba." Miyano Shiho's face changed. She was so focused on running away that she completely forgot that Xiaoba was still in the yard.
"Will it be dangerous?" Yuanshan Heye said worriedly.
"We have to bring it in!" said Mao Lilan, putting her hand on the door handle.
Seeing that Miyano Shiho and the others were about to go out again, and that the demon dog was still there, Inufushi Koko's face suddenly changed: "Wait, you guys! Don't go out!"
However, the three had already opened the door and ran out. Before leaving, Miyano Shiho took an umbrella at the door as a weapon.
···
On the other side, Youye and his companions arrived at the top of the cliff in Shancuncao's car.
Here, there are still scorch marks left by the demon dog running past.
Youya glanced at the edge of the cliff, where there was a simple guardrail made of two wooden stakes and rope, but the rope had been cut at some point.
At the same time, Conan also discovered that the warning sign originally standing at the intersection indicating the cliff had been pulled out.
Not only the warning sign, but also the signpost at the fork in the road ahead had fallen down.
Yuya touched his chin and said, "I see. On such a dark road with no road signs and a demon dog chasing her, it's not surprising that Miss Zuoji would fall off a cliff while riding her bicycle."
Yamamura Cao also thought it made sense, but he still had some doubts: "That is, is the one chasing her really a demon dog..."
Hattori Heiji sneered: "How could there really be a demon dog? This is just a psychological trap.
Legend has it that the burning dog, coupled with the flaming footprints, would easily lead people to put the blame on the demon dog.
The so-called cursed demon dog."
"How did that burning dog do that?" Shancun Cao asked.
Hattori Heiji frowned slightly: "He must have used some trick, but I haven't thought of it yet..."
Youye looked at the burnt marks on the ground thoughtfully, squatted down, picked up some dust with his hand, and then put it under his nose to smell it. However, apart from the burnt smell, there was no smell like gasoline.
Conan walked over and guessed, "Could it be the kind of fuel that evaporates completely when burned and leaves no smell?"
Youye nodded slightly: "It's possible. But at that time, it took us at least ten minutes to run from the bottom of the cliff to the top? The fire footprints were not extinguished at that time. Is there any odorless fuel that can continue to burn for that long?"
At this time, Yuya's cell phone rang. He took a look and saw that it was Miyano Shiho calling.
"Hello? Ah, we are on this side of the cliff. If you are hungry, you can eat first without waiting for us... What?!"
Yuya suddenly raised his voice and stood up with a whoosh.
Conan and the other two looked over in surprise.
"The demon dog appeared in the yard?"
