Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 228 Angry Kaito
As early as when they were locked into the hut as soon as they entered the third floor of the building, Yangzi judged based on the other party's behavior of taking Xiao Ai away alone that the target was Xiao Ai and not the three of them.

In addition, Yangzi, with his observation and hearing far beyond ordinary people, noticed that the people in black he saw along the way seemed to know Xiao Ai, but no one could recognize the three of them, and some people seemed to be using " The name "Grace" is used to call Xiao Ai.

Based on these two pieces of information, Yangzi came to a conclusion that, although a bit outrageous, could explain this phenomenon: This group of people mistook Xiao Ai for another little girl named "Grace", and that little girl was This is the person they really want to catch.

Xiaolan and Qingzi, who had been worried about whether the other party kidnapped them for ransom, were surprised when they heard Yangzi's reasoning. However, the two girls were quite smart and quickly understood the connection. The more I listened, the more I realized what Yangzi said made sense.

Based on this judgment, Yangzi concluded that the other party would definitely come to question them about Grace. In order to reduce the enemy's wariness of the three of them, Yangzi suggested that they all speak the same language and pretend that they had heard of "Grace" for the first time. The appearance of the name made it clear that Xiao Ai's name was "Xiao Ai" and he was their friend.

In this way, the other party will most likely think that "Xiao Ai" is the pseudonym used by Grace to disguise her identity, and the three of them are just temporary friends that Grace used to cover herself, thus treating them as being accidentally involved. Ordinary foreign tourists.

What happened after that was just as Yangzi had guessed. The three of them successfully passed each other's cross-examination, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced Xiaolan and Qingzi's confidence in escaping here and rescuing Xiaoai. As long as the other party did not intend to kill anyone, they would Have the confidence to hold on until rescue arrives.

Although they knew it was unrealistic, at this moment, both of them thought of their respective lovers and imagined the dream scene in which their prince charming appeared in front of them across the ocean, broke through the siege and successfully rescued them all.

While the two girls were relying on their fantasies to cheer themselves up from the bottom of their hearts, Yangzi, who was sitting cross-legged, had blocked out all external interference and was detecting the movements of things within a radius of more than ten meters by sensing the flow of breath in the air. A move.

After nearly half an hour of breath sensing, she had basically determined the approximate distribution and combat effectiveness of nearly twenty enemies on the third floor, and silently lowered the danger level of the situation by one level in her mind, waiting for the opponent's next move. .

It wasn't until 5 minutes ago that she suddenly noticed a slight vibration coming from the vent and the friction of the steel cable. From this, she judged that her grandson-in-law Ishino had reached the top of the building and began to investigate the situation inside the building.

Since Ishino controlled his breath very well, Yangzi could only feel a weak breath controlling the steel rope. On the contrary, there were two stronger breaths around him: one of them was strong and stable, restrained with a hint of restraint. One is indestructible and sharp; the other is lively and detached. The strength of the breath seems to be accompanied by the ups and downs of emotions, making it seem a bit immature.

It didn't take much effort for Yangzi to figure out who the three people on the roof were, so he lowered the urgency of the situation by two levels, relaxed completely, and focused on the safety of the two girls in front of him. I plan to leave the rest to the juniors.

At this moment, Yangzi was keenly aware that someone was striding towards the room. He guessed that the other party had just "communicated" with Xiao Ai, so he sent someone here to convey some kind of signal, so he He opened his eyes and reminded the two people beside him to prepare for the next development of the situation.On the other side, Kaito heard the conversation between the two people in the office through the microphone on the micro camera. After learning that the other party had a dirty mind towards Aoko and the other two girls, he immediately put aside the "poker face" taught by his father. Jiuxiaoyunwai had anger written all over his face.

"Brother-in-law! Don't wait for those policemen. Let's go down and rescue people. Otherwise, Aoko and the others..." Kaito, who was anxious in his heart, just urged him, but in the middle of his words, Ishino glared back.

"Otherwise, what if?" Ishino stared at Kaito with those calm eyes that made people feel chilled, and asked in a calm tone, "Are you just going to let me just rush in and be shot into a hornet's nest?"

Kaito, who was choked by the other party's words, still said stubbornly: "I have a sleeping bomb here. I can put the sleeping gas into the room through the ventilation duct first, and then break in."

"I don't know how effective your hypnotic gas is?" Seeing that the other party seemed to be confused because Aoko was in danger, Ishino couldn't help but said sternly, "It's such a large space of one floor, not to mention that the hypnotic gas is scattered How much more effective can we have everywhere? If the other party discovers our whereabouts in advance, Aoko and the others as hostages may face a more dangerous situation than now, don't you think about it?!"

"But...but if they continue to wait, they will be..." Knowing that he had lost his calm judgment due to emotion, Kaito showed a struggling look on his face, still wanting to argue.

"Don't worry, with Yangzi here, both Qingzi and Xiaolan will be fine." At this time, Qinglan, who was watching Ishino training her brother-in-law, comforted her in a timely manner, "It is better to be carried away by the blood and make such a mistake. Irrational behavior, you should adjust your mentality now and prepare for subsequent actions."

"As Qinglan said, you don't need to worry about their safety at the moment." Ishino also had no intention of spoiling the little brat, and made it clear in front of Kaito, "If you can't Keep a calm mind and forget the 'poker face' taught by your father, then be more conscious and take the initiative to withdraw from the action, so as not to hold us back when the time comes."

Although he didn't know why the two people in front of him were so confident in the girl named Yoko, how could Kaito be willing to withdraw from the action like this, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nodded in agreement: "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, and Sister Qinglan, I was impulsive. Yes, I will calm myself down and not drag you down..."

Seeing Kaito admitting his mistake, Ishino just nodded without intending to say anything more and turned his attention back to the surveillance screen on his phone screen.

Although he was teaching Kaito a lesson just now, he never forgot to observe the phone screen. Just when Kaito was filled with indignation and ready to take action, the middle-aged man on the screen suddenly received a call and quickly clicked the answer button with a solemn expression.
