The four adopted children were silent for a while, but Dr. Zhihuang provided a clue.

It turned out that when the second adopted child who was killed was still alive, he and the adopted child discovered a small cabin in the nearby forest.

There would be strange barking sounds from inside the wooden house, but they were too scared at the time and finally did not dare to go in.

However, now that the demon dog appears repeatedly, such important clues cannot be ignored.

After everyone prepared for a while, they immediately set off towards the forest.

…

Under the leadership of doctor Zhihuang, Conan and his team came to the swamp of the forest with Yamamura Cao.

The cabin with the barking dogs was right next to the swamp.

Qin Zhibo took a flashlight and looked around the edge of the swamp to determine the general scope of the swamp.

This is also the place where the victim of the second phase of the Demon Dog Case was killed, so naturally everyone had to investigate.

However, there were no on-site witnesses in this second case. The police found burn marks on the swamp bank and the Inubushi family's adopted daughter who ran into the swamp and drowned.

It's been some time since that case happened, and now I can't find any useful clues when I search the scene again.

So everyone just stopped for a short while and continued towards the cabin.

However, Zhihuangnan said that he was afraid of going to dark places and asked to stay alone in the car.

On the edge of the swamp, a dilapidated wooden house stood alone on the grass.

Qin Zhibo entered first.

When the flashlight light penetrated into the darkness of the room, he was shocked by the sight before him.

The space inside the wooden house is wider than expected, with several work tables, chairs, bookcases, etc. placed inside.

On the work table and bookcases, there are piles and rows of books.

Qin Zhibo took a closer look and saw that the spines of these books were all about magic!

"Introduction to Black Magic", "Encyclopedia of Demonic Logic", "Encyclopedia of Magic", "Wizard's Manual"...

Most of these books are in English, with a small amount in Japanese and Latin. In short, they have everything you need.

Qin Zhibo subconsciously picked up a book and looked through it. It was full of magic spells, magic circles and the like, which were comparable to the magic books of Koizumi Hongzi's family.

However, these books generally have little history, and some even indicate the publisher.

How can a serious magic book be labeled with a publisher?

Real magic books are forbidden books, or collections of wisdom that have been kept secret for generations.

Just when Qin Zhibo was assuming that these books were just fake and nothing real, a pile of books on the work table suddenly caught his eye.

The light of the investigation point actually appeared on this stack of books!

He quickly walked to the table, bent down to identify it carefully, and confirmed that the investigation point came from one of the books.

He took out the book and found that it was an old book.

The cover of the book is made of rough paper, with several large calligraphy written on it.

The Seven Chapters of Xuanjun's Secret Sutra...

There is no author name, no publisher, and the contents are all handwritten in Chinese characters, stroke by stroke.

It’s actually a book from the Great Celestial Dynasty?

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised. He didn't expect to find such high-quality goods in such a place?

Since there are survey points above, it means that this book is definitely not simple.

【Do you want to conduct a book survey?】

【Yes√】

Within a few seconds, information about this book appeared in Qin Zhibo's mind.

[Xuanjun Seven Chapters Secret Sutra: Created by the ancient Chinese philosopher Xuanjun around the second century AD.

The book is divided into seven volumes, each volume is equivalent to a chapter, each volume has a different theme and contains a kind of incantation.

【Would you like to read?】

Qin Zhibo examined the information that emerged in his mind one by one, and his pupils gradually enlarged in the process.

The knowledge in this book is so rich that it even exceeds all the mythological knowledge books I have read before.

There are seven chapters in total, and the contents of each chapter are heavyweight!

And even though he hasn’t started reading yet, Qin Zhibo is very interested in some of the content just by reading the introduction!

At the same time, other people gradually entered the cabin to investigate.

"Hey... why are they all books about black magic?"

By the light of Yamamura's flashlight, Mouri Kogoro also picked up a "Magic Encyclopedia" and flipped through it.

It's just that he read it with a critical eye. As a materialist warrior, he naturally has great disdain for such things.

Hattori Heiji didn't even look at it.

He swept the flashlight beam towards the ground and saw the six-pointed star carpet on the ground and a dog food bowl in the corner.

Just when Hei Hattori was about to bend forward to investigate, Conan, who had a physical advantage, had already dived under the table and found some leftover cans of dog food.

"It seems like someone is raising a dog here..."

After confirming that the true identity of the demon dog was a dog, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.

After experiencing some previous things, he really couldn't come up and directly confirm that it was a human being like Hattori Heiji did for such a case involving "monsters".

But this case is probably a human trick...

But just as he stood up and turned to see Qin Zhibo's reaction, he saw the man standing in front of the work table, reading a book attentively.
Chapter completed!
