Conan: The Mechanic

Meanwhile, the hotel where three potential candidates are staying.

"..." Pu Si Qinglan was lying on the bed, just quietly looking at the clock on the wall by the night light.

At 1:47, most people are probably already asleep, right? But at least she wasn't sleepy at all, just laying on the bed, thinking about the matter itself.

But apparently someone, like her, didn't fall asleep.

"Crack!" The glass in the next room shattered—if Pu Si Qinglan remembered correctly, it should be in the direction of Mr. Gan Jiangyi, the antique dealer who was completely out of shape.

what happened?

"What happened to that guy?" Pu Siqinglan asked a policeman when she walked out of the room, pretending to have just woken up, and came to a room surrounded by policemen. "If I remember correctly, this should be Mr. Gan's..."

Before she could finish speaking, she saw a policeman slam the door open, and rushed in together with several other policemen behind him.

"The go-getter is gone! There's a big hole in the window!"

"This guy must have run away!" The policeman beside Pu Siqinglan gritted his teeth. "Hurry up and chase, I will report to Officer Zhongsen immediately!"

"Mr. Police Officer," when the police here were in full swing, the Russian diplomat Sergey walked over with a very serious expression in a formal suit. "I heard it's very noisy here, may I ask what happened?"

……

"The go-getter disappeared from the hotel where they lived?" Officer Nakamori frowned, looking at the walkie-talkie in his hand. "So, have you found him? Or have you found any clues to prove his next whereabouts?"

"No, I haven't found such a thing yet, but even so, I think that's the only purpose for him to escape our surveillance at this time?" Opposite the walkie-talkie, his subordinate expressed his opinion.

"Well, hurry up and try to find the secrets in the castle before us, right?" Of course Officer Nakamori can also think of this point - in fact, he asked his subordinates not because he had no clue, but Just to prevent him from missing some important details. "Continue your search first, we will prepare the corresponding arrangement here."

In front of Officer Nakamori, Chiyu's eyes flicked to this side, and then turned to the front again.

"Isn't it a bit strange that Gan Jiangyi is so eager to reveal his identity?" Beside him, Conan had already spoken in a very low voice the confusion that Qianyu was also thinking about. "In this case, forcibly escaped from a place where the police were secretly monitoring, and then hoped to find the [Egg of Memories] earlier than those of us who were already exploring the tunnels below the castle. Some are too... lofty, right?"

"So either his purpose is not to get ahead of us, or there is some way for him to make sure he catches up when the departure time lags us that much, and goes back. If it's the first possibility , this may not be a good thing," Qian Yu pouted. "Don't worry if we find the treasure before him, maybe the other party is holding something similar to killing us and then intercepting the goods..."

"Don't say it, I don't know how to face an enemy who may be armed with a Gatling machine gun or similar weapons. If we really want to encounter it, I think we should really surrender, and it is more appropriate to give up the treasure. ." Conan's brows twitched.

"Well, let's not consider this possibility. After all, it's useless to think about it. It's more reliable to see the move at the scene." Qian Yu was helpless about this, and sighed and began to discuss the one. the second possibility of the reason for action. "Then, possibility 2, is it possible that Gan Jiangyi has obtained some means to ensure that he arrives first, and finds that thing first before we find the treasure?"

"Not really," Conan thought it was unlikely. "If you think about it, this is a secret space designed by Mr. Kiichi Kasaka himself. Even if there are drawings or similar things, it should be in the hands of Miss Kasaka Natsumi and the like, not in anything. What Mr. Gan Jiangyi has the conditions to get. If so, how can he be sure to be one step ahead of us?"

"In principle, if he wears geological survey equipment, maybe he can use the detection equipment to find the road ahead of us." After thinking about it, Qianyu denied the threat of this plan. "However, the problem is... the road we walked over from the entrance so far was all one-way streets, the kind that didn't even have a fork in the road. If Gan Jiang really intends to walk in front of us, it must be a one-way street. Come over from our way, and then pass by us. Do you think there are so many of us that we can't deal with him alone? Even if he has..."

When Chiyu said this, his and Conan's expressions suddenly changed at the same time.

Wait a moment?

"Entrance," Qianyu murmured. "just in case……"

"In case the entire secret passage system does not only have the entrance of Mr. Kasaka Kiichi's office, but also other entrances outside~www.readwn.com~, and may know some of the outside entrances through some means. It is entirely possible to enter this underground labyrinth system from those places, and then be one step ahead of us!" Conan said excitedly. "Looking at it this way, we need to speed up, and let the police block off the surrounding area, use a net-like method to search the surrounding area, and notify us immediately after seeing the possible entrance or the trace of the go-getter. You wait, I'll go and tell Officer Nakamori!"

……

Meanwhile, the hotel.

"..." Pu Siqinglan opened the envelope in her hand, but found a folded letter and a stack of photos inside.

photo? Who sent me the photo?

Pu Siqinglan was puzzled, and turned the photo with the back facing up, and her brows were immediately furrowed - there was no other reason, because these photos were all private photos taken while she was in the bath. photo.

For God's sake, she's wearing nothing in these photos!

Those who put shower gel on their chests, those who washed their lower bodies with a spray head, those who wiped their bodies with soap... The photos sent by the other party could obviously be screened, and each one was extremely sensitive.

[If you want me to keep these secrets and prevent your reputation from being damaged, I think we may need to discuss it outside - I will wait for you until you cooperate or fall apart. 】

In the signature area in the lower right corner, there is an unusually delicate pattern of [Gan Jiang Yi], which is obviously from the personal signature seal of Gan Jiang Yi.

Pu Siqinglan's face was blue and white, and the hand holding the letter continued to tremble. For young women in their twenties, what could make them dare not resist than this kind of coercion? ?
