Conan: The Mechanic

"Huh...huh..." Haibara Ai seemed to have lost all the courage she had just suddenly acquired, and the two withdrew their fingers, took a few steps back, and looked at the old lady nervously.

"Ah!!!" The old lady groaned and collapsed to the ground.

"Go on!" Yuan Tai roared, and together with Mitsuhiko, suppressed the old lady.

"Uh..." Qianyu sat up and hugged the injured leg. "The power of the stick... just..."

"Are you alright?" Haibara Ai immediately came to Qianyu's side. "Is there nothing wrong with the bones?"

"It looks fine..." Qian Yu's mouth twitched. "But it really hurts..."

"Under normal circumstances, there is no problem with the fracture effect of the swinging stick." Saying this, Haibara Ai carefully grabbed Chiba's trousers at the knee, and carefully pulled it upward, causing Chiba to be hit in the calf. His trousers were also pulled up. "At least there doesn't appear to be an open fracture and the leg doesn't appear to be deformed..."

"Hmm..." Qianyu tried to stand up by herself and took a few steps. "Huh. Although it hurts, it can still be overcome..."

"Can you still stand up..." Haibara Ai tilted her head. "That seems to be fine... It's because the guy just didn't have a long enough acceleration distance to swing the stick, so the lower speed limits the power..."

"Sure enough, it's the old lady..." Conan's slightly tired voice appeared in the corner along with his figure. "I thought it was weird at first..."

"Huh?" Qian Yu and the others were puzzled.

"When we first met her, she said something..." Conan replied. "Like the change of passports and the revision of banknotes, these past events I have become bearish..."

"Right?"

"The old lady should be close to 90 years old this year, and basically she will not go abroad. Japan is an island country. No matter how you go abroad, you need to take a boat or a plane. These two modes of transportation will cause the elderly to be in danger once they go abroad. It cannot be treated in time, so it is definitely a high-risk and low-probability time for a 90-year-old to go abroad. So knowing that the passport was changed a few years ago is even more low-probability.”

"Heh..." The old lady, who was unable to move freely, turned around. "For the treasure here, I have devoted twenty years of my youth here, but I didn't expect that I would still miss the treasure..."

"If you read more books, you'll be able to discover the treasure..." Qianyu pouted.

"What?" The old lady looked at Qianyu in surprise.

"Have you cracked the chess code?" Qian Yu said lightly.

"Of course I cracked it!" The old lady said excitedly. "Egg-head, egg-head!"

"Uh..." Qianyu, Haibara Ai, and Conan in the distance all looked helpless.

"Egg-head means nerd..." After speaking, Haibara Ai suddenly thought of something. "Wait a minute, do you mean..."

"Isn't there a very conspicuous mural in the hall?" Chiba shrugged. "The white pieces represent the portrait of the eldest son, while the black pieces represent the counterclockwise rotation..."

After speaking, Chiyu suddenly looked at the crossroads not far away with a bit of astonishment.

After a few seconds, his complexion suddenly changed. "Someone!"

Before the others could react, Chiba quickly walked to the crossroads.

He heard a voice just now. . . The sound of someone running in the tunnel. . .

Someone heard his inference and went to find the treasure!

Qianyu doesn't have any idea of ​​fighting for treasures - he really can't handle the clean money of good people.

But he still wanted to know who it was.

. . .

Qianyu climbed up from the dark passage and looked at the portrait of the eldest master—the portrait had been turned 60 degrees by a dark shadow.

"I think too much," Qian Yu said lightly. "Even if you find the treasure, you can't swallow it alone. Mr. Gardener, who was beaten by me just now."

The bald gardener turned his head and looked at him.

"As far as I know, the eldest master's will should be a rare item, right?" Qian Yu said leisurely. "And even if there are several wills, it can't be with you."

"If they always deny the existence of this will by then, then the treasure will be divided according to the default process. The fake old lady has been subverted, and you can't get the treasure anyway, right?"

"..." The gardener was silent and let go of the portrait of the eldest master.

"Can I ask you a few questions?" Qianyu asked while sitting on the ground.

"Ask..." The gardener sighed and said.

"Why are you chasing Haibara Ai?"

"This is a very complicated story..." The gardener smiled bitterly. "I'll tell you slowly..."

Then, the gardener put his hand beside his ear.

Under Chiba's jaw-dropping gaze, a wrinkled human face mask fell to the ground.

"I also had an unbearable past," said the gardener with a real face. "At the age of 16, he abandoned all distracting thoughts and became a killer who added blood to his life~www.readwn.com~ and then joined a killer group that was about to collapse."

"She was the veteran of that killer group, and she was also my mentor at the time, so we did a few missions together."

"Later, the leader of the team was arrested, and several veterans in the team disbanded because they refused to accept anyone else... I wanted to hang out with the eldest sister, so I asked around to find out where the eldest sister went."

"I've been looking for it for almost ten years. About five years ago, I found out that the eldest sister has been a maid here under a pseudonym, and has become a head maid at the same time. Although I have become a well-known killer, but I was tired of this life-threatening life, so I decided to use the gardening skills I learned before to make a living here as well."

"As a result, just a few days after I joined the company, the fire broke out... Even the eldest sister's head disappeared."

"I was already in despair, but I found that although the old lady has an old face, she has exactly the same voice as the eldest sister. Later, I tried to plant some flowers that the eldest liked, and found that the old lady often sits in a wheelchair in front of the garden. Stay, and stop in front of the flowers that the eldest sister likes."

"By chance, I discovered the secret passage here, and then found the old lady's body in the secret passage, and finally confirmed that the current old lady is the eldest lady, and I also confirmed that the eldest lady pretended to be the old lady in order to get the treasure... So I decided to help her. But because the eldest sister has a more ruthless personality, I dare not tell her clearly, I can only help her quietly in my current capacity..."

"As for chasing the little girl today, it's because I saw that she seemed to be trying to get in the way of the eldest sister..."

"I apologize to you for what I did...but I'm also sorry, I won't regret it."
