Chapter 57
What does it mean to play at home?
With lightning speed, Jonah drew the electric pistol from his back waist, aimed at Rob's head, and quickly pulled the trigger repeatedly.
The tranquilizer dart struck Rob precisely on the side of his face. Dr. Agasa had slightly adjusted the bullet's velocity and sharpness. The tranquilizer dart first hurt Rob's side of his face, causing him to stagger. He instinctively dropped the stun gun in his hand, covered his face, and knelt down in the mud.
He wanted to see who had attacked him, but the numbing effect quickly took hold, causing Rob to fall flat on his face in the mud.
"Hey, what's wrong? Mr. Robert? Why have you collapsed!"
Hearing the sound behind him, Toyama Kazuha immediately turned around and saw Rob lying on the ground. He was very alarmed and wanted to go forward to check on him.
"Don't move."
Seeing Toyama Kazuha's actions, Jonah quickly called out to Toyama Kazuha, ran to Rob's side, and skillfully tied Rob up with a rope.
"Hey, Jonah, why...?"
Before Kazuha could finish his question, Jonah abruptly turned around and gave him a serious look, interrupting him.
"Sister He Ye, please help me carry him over there!"
"Oh, oh oh!"
Jonah instinctively helped Rob lift up, and on their way to the warehouse, the two saw Ran Mouri rushing back from her room to get batteries.
When Ran Mouri saw Rob being carried by the two men, she was momentarily stunned, then quickly ran over to Jonah and helped lift Rob up.
"Jonah, what happened?"
It wasn't until Rob was carried into the warehouse that Ran Mouri came to her senses and asked Jonah what had happened. At the same time, Kogoro Mouri and his two companions, who were investigating on the second floor of the warehouse, also heard the commotion and rushed down to check the situation. They immediately saw Rob tied up.
"He wanted to use this to attack Sister He Ye, so I defeated him beforehand."
He took the stun gun he had picked up earlier and showed it to everyone. Faced with Jonah's words, almost no one doubted him, so the way they looked at Rob changed.
"Kazuha, why did he attack you? What did you do?"
After checking that Toyama Kazuha seemed to be fine, Hattori Heiji couldn't resist his curiosity and asked.
"I don't know either. I was just looking for a talisman for Xiaolan when I found a small white bead on the ground. Look, it looks like this."
Kazuha Toyama pulled BB pellets from her pocket and handed them to Heiji Hattori, saying with a wronged expression, "I thought Mr. Robert was a good person, who knew he would attack me."
"What's this? A BB gun?"
Looking at the BB pellets in their hands, Heiji Hattori and Conan Edogawa exchanged a glance, realizing something, and wanted to run out to the back of the warehouse to check the situation.
"Wait a minute, none of you should go out."
Jonah raised his hand to stop the two men, blocking the warehouse door. He spoke with a serious expression, "Something's not right here. There's a group of people hiding in the woods outside. They seem hostile to the people here and are preparing to invade in the dead of night."
"I sneaked in and overheard the news. There were eight of them, carrying two handguns. They came here, apparently looking for some very expensive flour."
"Very expensive flour? Wait, Jonah, did you really hear them say that?"
Upon hearing Jonah's message, everyone was stunned for a moment. Heiji Hattori quickly realized what the flour Jonah didn't know was, and his expression turned ugly.
"Yes, that's what I heard."
"This is troublesome. The road is blocked by mudslides, and the police can't get up here. Now it's just us here."
With his hair disheveled, Hattori Heiji also started to get nervous. Everyone present was not stupid. Except for Jonah, who did not know who the other party was because he had never experienced it before, everyone understood that the people lying in ambush in the forest outside were a group of swindlers.
They knew all too well that the parasite traffickers were the most ruthless and merciless killers.
"We need to find a way to get things moving. First, we need to gather all the Takeda family members and hide them in one place. Then we can see if there's anything we can use as weapons."
"Xiao Lan, Yuan Shan girl, you two need to hide with them. This dark-skinned boy and I will guard outside. And you little devil, you also need to hide well and don't do anything reckless."
As the oldest person present, Kogoro Mouri was very nervous, but he still stepped forward to take charge.
"And Jonah, we'll have to ask you for help with Jonah. We need to figure something out... Hmm, where's Jonah?"
At this point, Kogoro Mouri suddenly realized that Jonah, who had just been standing in front of the warehouse door, had disappeared.
"Could Jonah have gone to find those swindlers himself?"
"Damn it, that brat must have done it!"
......
After telling Kogoro Mouri and the others the news, Jonah noticed their sudden tension and realized that the group of people he had found in the forest were definitely very dangerous.
Realizing that the other party still had a gun, Jonah knew he couldn't wait any longer.
Jonah slipped out of the warehouse without a sound and quickly disappeared into the forest, using the sound of the rain to conceal his footsteps. He soon reached the hiding place of the group of people.
Looking at the enemy standing absentmindedly on the outermost edge, Jonah slowly drew his dagger, quietly crept up behind him, and was about to pounce and slit his throat to take care of one of them when suddenly a towering flame shot up from the Takeda clan not far away, along with a voice calling Jonah's name.
Jonah knew that Conan Edogawa and his group were looking for him, trying to distract the people in the forest, create chaos to make their actions easier, and hoping that he wouldn't go on a killing spree in the forest.
However, this time, Conan Edogawa was indeed overly worried. Although Jonah liked to eliminate enemies completely, he also liked his current life. He knew very well how troublesome it would be if his murders were exposed, so from the beginning he had no intention of killing these enemies in the forest.
While the outermost sentry was staring blankly at the firelight, Jonah gripped the dagger in his left hand and held the pistol in his right, resting it on his left hand, and accurately shot the sentry in the face.
The lookout instinctively cried out in alarm, but Jonah quickly tackled him and pinned him to the muddy ground, where he fell unconscious moments later.
Jonah rummaged through the lookout's body and luckily found a pistol. His eyes lit up slightly, and he tucked the electric gun back behind his back.
Now, of the remaining 7 people, there is only one pistol.
And this place is still mountainous forest.
With his eyes slightly narrowed, Jonah moved through the forest like a ghost, and soon arrived at the temporary rest camp where the remaining 7 people were.
The bookworm was surprised by the sudden flash of light and was about to approach the Takeda residence to see what had happened when, unexpectedly, a gun barrel suddenly emerged from the bushes beside them.
Bang!
