Conan: The Mechanic

Chapter 410: ——Heiji Hattori

"What's going on?" Chiba, who was so frightened by the sudden opening of the rooftop door, hurriedly retracted her hand, and looked at the cloth wrapped around the railing in surprise—the cloth was quite large, covering a large area of ​​the railing.

"..." Haiyuan Ai also frowned, and subconsciously glanced at the stairs behind them.

"It seems to be an automatic mechanism," Chiyu focused her gaze on the cloth and immediately came to a conclusion. "Shall we go see?"

There seems to be a fairly wide protrusion under the cloth. Considering the appearance of the roof door when it was opened, I am afraid it is a rotating structure similar to an axle. As soon as they opened the rooftop door, something like a sturdy line like a fishing line tied to the doorknob would pull the rooftop door open, driven by the heavy object at the other end.

"Are you sure there is no one on the rooftop?" Ai Haibara reminded worriedly.

"There should be no one," Qianyu shook her head. "This is an automatic mechanism. If someone is really here, there is no need for him to set up this kind of mechanism."

Despite saying this, Chiba still took out the traceless umbrella and prepared for battle. "You stand back a little bit."

[Again, breaking through a door when there may be a potential enemy? 】Qianyu pouted - the ground on the roof slides and her knees will hurt. (Chapter 43, Qian Yu rushed to the door by kneeling in Yiyu Building)

But now that he has an auxiliary unit, maybe his reaction speed allows him to choose a less uncomfortable position?

Just when Chiyu was ready to enter in a fighting stance, Chiyu suddenly found that the cloth originally covering the railing had been pulled from below, and suddenly began to fall to the ground driven by natural gravity.

A few seconds later, a loud collision sounded from the outside into Chiba and Haibara Ai's ears, who were standing at the door, followed by long or short exclamations.

"Tsk!" Qianyu immediately reacted to what happened, and then passed through the door as if she was certain that no one would be here, and stepped onto the ground of the rooftop.

There is only one way to explain this situation - the act of opening the door just now triggered a certain mechanism hidden under the cloth, and then this mechanism threw a heavy object down. Such an institution can well pass the responsibility of throwing the heavy object down to the person who triggered the institution.

Then, what did he throw down and plan to let Chiba and the others take the blame? Thinking like this, Chiba came to the railing and looked down. As the scene below was introduced into his eyes through the auxiliary unit, Qianyu's originally dull expression immediately became a little dignified. "Well…………"

Right below, a person is lying on the engine cover of a car downstairs. The engine cover has been deformed to a certain extent due to the high-intensity impact, and the person himself has been damaged after the impact. Blood It was rapidly spreading around him. Judging from the situation, he should already be dead - Qianyu doesn't even need to judge from the screaming that he didn't fall down, because there was a knife stuck in his chest, and a bloodstain extended from the knife edge, towards the The legs of the corpse were pulled out by about ten centimeters.

"What's wrong?" At this moment, Haibara Ai came over and asked.

"Someone fell to his death—to be precise, a corpse fell," Qianyu said, turning her head and looking into Haibara Ai's eyes. "Someone killed a person and hid under the cloth. When the unlucky guy opens the door, the trap will be triggered, and then the corpse that was originally held there by something will be thrown down."

"So we should call the police now?" Saying so, Haibara Ai took out her cell phone.

"Maybe it's not necessary," Qianyu shook her head. "I forgot to say, the body fell on a police car with police, I guess—"

Chiba suddenly stopped speaking, because his auxiliary unit isolated the sound from the stairs - it was the sound of a stair door on a certain floor being violently pushed open. Judging from the sound of the collision between the stair door and the wall, the speed of the movers was quite desperate, and it was most likely aimed at them.

Could it be that this police car is equipped with all other police forces other than the person in the car inside the building? Is there something going on in this building?

With the sound of stepping on the stairs getting louder and louder, someone who was both expected and unexpected appeared in front of them.

Said it was expected, because the other party did say what Qianyu could expect.

"Children? Uh, did you push the man who fell down just now? Or was there an adult here just now?" When he said this, the other party had a rather obvious accent.

But unexpectedly...

"You..." Qianyu turned around, leaned against the railing, and raised her eyebrows to look at the visitor. "Are you a policeman? If you don't have a police uniform or a police officer's license, it will be difficult for us to judge?"

Standing at the entrance of the rooftop is a dark-skinned youth in casual clothes~www.readwn.com~. If Chiba's prediction based on the opponent's voice and skin is correct, the opponent's age should still be in high school, and it shouldn't be a legitimate police officer...

If you consider the worst case, the other party may actually be the murderer. Maybe you want to appreciate your masterpiece now?

"You are the child of the Kanto family?" The youth frowned. "Where are your parents?"

At this moment, both Chiba and Haibara Ai both showed expressions of hell—of course not because of this child who might be even more immature than the two of them, but because...

"Qianyu, Haibara?" Behind the young man, the panting Conan widened his eyes and looked at Qianyu and Haibara Ai. "Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?" Qian Yu was stunned for a moment before she realized it. "Wait a minute, did Uncle Mori bring your family to Osaka?"

"You know them?" The young man turned his head and looked at Conan.

"Yeah, they are my classmates, a member of the boy detective team. The boy is Tachibana Qianyu, and the girl's name is Haibara Ai." Conan said, and suddenly remembered that he had to introduce Qianyu and Haibara Ai. "Ah, this black - this healthy-skinned brother is Hattori Heiji, a very famous detective in Kansai."

"What did you call me just now?" Hattori Heiji turned his head badly and said to Conan. "I seem to have heard something that can easily make a little boy who wears glasses and a poor mouth eat a few more packets on his head?"

"I just called you 'handsome and healthy Big Brother Sunshine'~" Conan immediately put on a smile and said flatteringly.

"Stop talking about that," Hattori Heiji glared at Conan angrily, then looked at Chiba and the others again. "Tell me, what's going on?"
