In Osaka at night, Hattori Heiji wandered alone on the edge of the city. If you want to play a baseball game, the city center is definitely not good. Only this kind of sparsely populated place is more suitable.

  "Actually, the ghost pitcher is not without a trace, because there are witnesses to his several duels. I think, as long as you look for it carefully, there should be clues."

  Hattori Heiji thought secretly.

  Hattori Heiji put his hands inside his jacket and wore a baseball cap.Thinking about how to find the ghost pitcher, unexpectedly, the ghost pitcher committed the crime again.

  Below the ring road is a very dark, unpopular road.There is a long road built under the bridge. Although the sound of cars and vibrations can be heard from time to time, the lonely atmosphere below is like another world.

  A slender parking lot without users.Blue and white street lights and a straight road narrowly stretched forward, with a wide view of the concrete pavement.

  Under the street lights eighteen meters away, a strange man in a hood appeared.

  "—Are you, a batter?"

  The weirdo asked suddenly.

  However, the person being questioned was indeed a baseball batter. He was a batter from Ekoda High School, Shogo Arishima.Shogo Arishima got nervous. It was a different kind of nervousness from a game.Speaking of which, today's game was too dramatic. A kendo club member from Kaifang High School turned out to be a talented hitter and lost the game for some inexplicable reason...  

  "It's the same oppressive feeling!"

  "What do you mean?"

  The monster made a hoarse sound.

  "I mean, you also watched the baseball game between Kaifang High School and Jianggutian High School today. Logically, you shouldn't know my identity. You must have watched today's game before you knew I was a hitter. Remember The legendary hitter at Gaifang High School, who knocked our team down, I mean, you have the same pressure as him!"

  "Perfect logic, tell me, what else did you find?"

  "I will appear in this place where I shouldn't have appeared inexplicably, and I think it's also your ghost. Only the famous ghost pitcher can do this kind of thing!"

  "Since you know my identity, I won't talk nonsense, let's start."

  "I refuse, why do I want a monster like you to play baseball? We are not from the same starting point, why do you want me to play baseball with you?"

  Arishima reprimanded me, obviously, the opponent is not a human, so the game with the monster is meaningless.The most basic of sports is fairness, and there is no fairness in the game with monsters.

  The undead under the blue streetlight seemed to fall down at any moment, and was staring intently at Shogo Arishima, the ghost hiding in the windbreaker was so specific that it was pitiful. "Well, you're a batter, that's right..." The voice sounded like a murmur, a longing like the resentment in the dying.

  "..."

  The ghost pitcher threw his baseball bat to Shogo Arishima: "Let's start."

  Arishima Shogo wanted to run away, but he quickly dismissed the idea, the opponent's right arm wrapped in a long-sleeved shirt had already held the white ball.

  "It seems that I have to fight with you. What a willful fellow. What are the rules of the game? Let's talk about it."

  "It's very simple, it's an official fight of the dozen. It's a win for the pitcher if the opponent strikes out, and a win for the batter if he hits and hits a batting-level ball."

  "Losers, will they die?"

  "It's hard to say, it depends on your strength."

  "Come on then." Arishima held my bat in both hands and raised it straight up.Raise your hands up so that the bat is behind your shoulders, letting your shoulder blades relax. "It seems that a fight is inevitable, then I'll play with you, ghost pitcher." Although you don't know what your opponent is, as long as you have a baseball bat in your hand, you seem to have everything and be able to face any enemy! .

Chapter 523

  The corners of the ghost pitcher's mouth under the hood twisted into a smile, and the right hand holding the white ball fluttered like a wing.There was no signal to start, it was a very rough, yet extremely smooth pitching action.The jet ball that was released with a side shot and flew straight to the chest of the right hitter Arishima.

  "What, a straight ball, no matter how fast, I can make a good blow."

  However, the ball that flew in a straight line suddenly changed before reaching the bat in Shogo Arishima's hand. The ball jumped up suddenly, deviated from the original planned trajectory, and hit Shogo Arishima's sky directly.

  The ball in front of him is completely beyond that kind of common sense.It's not just a changing ball. The so-called changing ball bends the track when it falls. No matter how strong the arm force is released, the ball will only fly forward in a pure straight line. , or apply a rotation lower down.After the ball fell, it suddenly rose, which was beyond the common sense of human beings.

  The white ball completely disappeared from Shogo Arishima's field of vision. The moment the white ball fell into the strike zone, it seemed to pierce through Shogo Arishima's lower jaw and bounced straight up. Perhaps it was an instinctive evasion of death. The instant reaction to move 19's head away saved his life, and the white ball grazed his left forehead.

  There was a burning pain in the forehead of Arijima Jiang, and blood gushed from the wound.

  "Pain - it's a foul at all, where can there be such a ball!"

  "The next ball is about to start."

  "Wait, I lost, I admit defeat..."

  Shogo Arishima now understands why it is called an urban legend. This ghost pitcher is simply a devil who can't get along with the batter. If he fights with the devil, he will undoubtedly be killed.

  "no!"

  The ghost pitcher turned down Shogo Arijima and started the second pitch, and Shogo Arijima tried to get away.However, the opponent had already entered a sideways pitching position, and even if he ran towards the ghost pitcher now, he would not be able to catch up, and if he turned around, the back of his head would be shattered.

  "Wait, your opponent shouldn't be me, he's the fourth player of the Kaifang high school baseball team, let me go, I'll let him play against you!"

  However, the ghost pitcher ignored him, and the ghost pitcher's pitching posture entered the final stage, and Arijima was completely desperate.

  Telling the spinning ball to rush towards Shogo Arishima, Shogo Arishima couldn't catch the ball's trajectory at all and couldn't swing the bat.However, the ball completely swept over the body.Just as there was an island that I secretly got lucky,

  The blood-stained white ball flew back from the darkness at a right angle and hit the back of Masago Arijima's head.

  The skull was completely shattered, the brains and blood were scattered on the concrete floor, and Shogun Arishima's consciousness was gradually engulfed by the ancient fault.

  After the ghost pitcher recovered the white ball, he disappeared into the darkness with his icy body. This was already the eighth kill, and his interest gradually dissipated. He felt that his pitching skills were getting stronger and stronger. Can't satisfy him.He recalled that in today's baseball game, the fourth batter played by the Gaifang High School team was the only one who deserved a fight.Before that, he decided to get a few more people to practice his hand to make sure his pitch, no matter who it was, couldn't beat it.

  When Hattori arrived at the scene, all he saw was a body lying on the dirt on the edge of the city.

  "Damn! Am I late? Who the hell committed this unforgivable sin."

  Hattori Heiji's face was full of resentment.

  "The deceased is Shogo Arishima from Kaifang High School."

  A beautiful long-haired girl appeared beside Hattori Heiji.

  Hattori Heiji had an impression of her, she was a former client, Koizumi Koizumi.

  "Why are you? And you..."

  Then, Hattori Heiji saw Ye Fan and Toyama and Ye.

  Koizumi Koizumi faced Hattori Heiji and warned: "Hattobe classmates, don't follow up on this incident, the murderer is not an ordinary human being."

  Ye Fan stepped forward and said to Hattori Heiji, "Don't you understand? If the person targeted by the other party is you, then the victim who fell to the ground with blood on his head is you!"

  Hattori Heiji snorted coldly, and said, "Are you going to be my child? Urban weird talk, it's not credible at all!"

  Yuan Shan and Ye stepped forward and said, "Heiji...why don't you believe everyone?"

  Hattori Heiji looked at Yuanshan Kazuo coldly: "Enough, Kazuya, the last person I want to see right now is you!"

  Then, Hattori Heiji disappeared into the darkness.

  Ye Fan scratched his head for some unknown reason and said, "Strange, why did Heiji leave? He didn't call the police, and then investigate the truth?"

  Koizumi Hongzi explained: "This abnormality will affect the judgment of ordinary people. Otherwise, the mystery will not be so easy to hide."

  Ye Fan pointed at the corpse and said, "There is no one to deal with, so just leave him alone?"

  Koizumi Hongzi said, "No, wait..."

  Ye Fan, Yuan Shan and Ye looked at each other, not sure what was going on at all?

  Ye Fan secretly said, sure enough, the world of Conan is very wrong. The original plot has been [-] years, but in fact, only half a year has passed. The time of the whole world is chaotic. Could it be that there are some shocking secrets hidden in it?

  As Koizumi Hongzi said, someone really came, an honest-looking, very inconspicuous man appeared in front of everyone.

  The man was wearing a gray Li Ling jacket, looked at Koizumi Hongzi, and asked, "Hongzi, who are these people?"

  Koizumi Hongzi said to the man, "They are my friends. Let me introduce you. This is Ye Fan, a detective from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and this one is called He Ye, Ye Fan's girlfriend."

  Koizumi Hongzi then said to Ye Fan: "This is the person in charge of the Far East Magic Association, Jingxi Kusajuro, who I mentioned earlier."

  Kusaojurou's face turned cold and he said, "Hongzi, you talk too much..."

  Koizumi Hongzi said: "No, Kusajiro. I mentioned to you before that the person who masters powerful lightning magic is this Officer Ye."

  Ye Fan asked in surprise, "Mr. Jingxi, does an organization like the Magic Association really exist?"

  Kusajuro looked at Ye Fan and said slowly: "Magic Association, regardless of nationality or genre, is a self-defense group formed by people who study magic. It is a mission to manage and hide magic, and to develop it. In order to avoid threats It holds the power to protect itself in the hands of its own things, and it holds research institutions for the further development of magic.”

  Ye Fan said: "It sounds very powerful."

  Kusajuro said, "However, I'm very surprised. If you are as powerful as Hongzi said, how could I not know?"

  Ye Fan smiled lightly, who do you think you are?know everything.

  "Business bragging, don't take it seriously. Besides, I'm not very interested in magic or anything. I'm a criminal police officer, and my duty is to solve cases. I can't let that serial killer go."

  Kusajuro said: "I already have certain clues about the murderer of this incident. A considerable proportion of the victims are students of Egutian High School. In addition, the victims selected by the prisoners are not all good hitters. To be precise, just know the rules of baseball and be able to hit the ball!”.

Chapter 524

  Koizumi Hongzi did not agree with Sojuro's words: "It's not like this, you look at the order, the first few victims are just ordinary people, the latter victims are obviously selective, they are all powerful hitters, One is even a professional player! That is to say, the target of the prisoner was relatively casual at first, but later the purpose became obvious, and they were all good baseball batters!”

  Kusajuro said: "Well, in this way, only staring at a good baseball hitter, a ghost pitcher, will be hooked sooner or later."

  Ye Fan thought about it, the next thing is relatively simple, as long as you pay attention to the location of Hattori Heiji located on the phone at any time, there will be no problem.

  Using hacking technology, Ye Fan can synchronize the location of Hattori Heiji in real time, which is also an important reason why he can quickly find Hattori Heiji.

  "He Ye, are you going home tonight?"

  "Ah? You don't have to go home. I can call my parents and tell my classmates to live there."

  "He Ye, let's go to the hotel now."

  "it is good."

  Yuan Shan and Ye nodded shyly.

  "Hongzi, come with you too."

  Ye Fan turned his head and looked at Koizumi Hongzi.

  Koizumi Hongzi blushed slightly and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? What am I going to do with you in the hotel?"

  Ye Fan said, "I have followed my promise and never went to Qingzi. You should also fulfill your promise."

  Yuan Shan and Ye stared at Ye Fan in shock and asked, "Ye Fan, what is the relationship between you and classmate Hongzi?"

  Ye Fan stretched out his hand, pulled Hongzi closer to him, smiled and said, "Come on, Hongzi, tell He Ye yourself, what is your relationship with me?"
