Conan: The Mechanic

Chapter 872: - Sergeant Shiratori from Hokkaido

An egg that is quite similar to the existing part of [Egg of Memories], and a skeleton of a child!

【How can you be in such a high place? 】This is Chiba's idea

Since the person who designed this place deliberately installed these two things at a certain distance, the purpose must be to prevent Mr. Kiichi mentioned in the letter from being able to take care of both at the same time. Forced to accept another fact that fell to the ground.

【Kasaka Kiichi】Mr.'s youngest son? As for the characters I haven't heard of before, it seems that Miss Xia Mei only mentioned the [son] of Mr. Kasaka Kiichi. Could it be because the second son died early, so she didn't know it?

Thinking like this, Qianyu still didn't give up on her physical movements. After all, two things that might be of great research value to them were falling.

Chiyu's gaze swept over everyone, and determined the whereabouts of everyone who had already responded.

The one who responded the fastest was the police officer Shiratori who had already acted, while Kogoro Mouri, Ran and Conan reacted at about the same speed (all slightly faster than Chiba, who was behind them because of this wait-and-see)

But their goal is the egg, but no one cares about the skeleton...

Forget it, a skeleton with no commercial value and an Easter egg that is suspected to be part of the [Egg of Memories], choose one of the two parts, the normal worldly person's choice will almost certainly be to save the egg of memory first, so this can't be. Blame them.

And since that's the case, it just saves the time for one's own choice, right?

Starting with a non-human movement like a spring, after locking the horizontal coordinates of the skeleton, Chiyu arrived at the landing point before the old butler of the Kasaka family who also wanted to respond to the skeleton, and then jumped high.

"Brush!" Accompanied by the sound of the machine, the cover of the seamless umbrella opened directly under the skeleton, and was pulled by Qianyu and stranded in the air, while Qianyu also carefully examined the fallen corpse from a closer distance.

This small skeleton is in a kneeling posture, with both hands stretched back to the hips, apparently tied behind him during his lifetime. But what disturbed Chiyu the most was the strange thing he discovered when he inadvertently scanned the skull.

That's a wire that connects the baby's spine to the skull! It was the same steel wire as the body of Rena Mizuna that he had examined at Gregory before! (see the starting point chapter 772 - body art)

Under Qianyu's astonished gaze, the child's skeleton fell onto the surface of the traceless umbrella, and the motion brought about by the fall from a height made Qianyu feel that her arm holding the umbrella almost dislocated.

But in the end, he still landed safely.

"Is this a baby's skeleton?" When Chiba put the traceless umbrella on the ground and gently massaged her overloaded shoulder joint, Haibara Ai had already hurried over. "Wait a minute, your shoulders..."

"It's alright, it's just a sudden shock," Qianyu signaled that she was alright, and then whispered to Haihara in a low voice. "In addition, take a look at this skeleton, this child is also connected to the whole body skeleton by steel wire!"

"What?" Haibara Ai frowned, grabbed the corner of Qianyu's clothes lightly, and hid behind him to look in the direction of the baby. "Is... the kind on that guy?"

"Yes, but I don't know if the two are related yet..." After Chiyu felt that her arm had basically recovered, she squatted down and looked at the bones in the umbrella. "Well... the edges and corners of the transparent wound connecting the steel wire have been dulled, and it doesn't look like a handwriting in recent years, and it is also reasonable to describe it as what was done 70 years ago."

In other words, the person who did this connection work must not be the one he is now—but he probably has some kind of skill inheritance connection with it.

At the moment when they were worried and confused that such a skill appeared seventy years ago, there was exclamation from the other side.

"That's right, this must be the inner egg body of the [Egg of Memories]!" Suzuki Jiro Yoshiken exclaimed as he looked at the egg. "Officer Shiratori, did you bring the casing?"

"Oh, I brought it, in my bag!" Officer Shiratori took out a rather plain wooden box from his backpack, but when he was about to hand it to Jiro Suzuki, he seemed to think of something. "By the way, consultant Suzuki, should we take these things back to the Suzuki consortium's laboratory for detailed analysis? The light here is so dim, and we don't have enough analysis equipment, it seems difficult to fully observe the potential of the two eggs. Built-in mechanism."

"What you said also makes sense," Suzuki Jiroji nodded after thinking. "Then we'd better go back to the ground and then take a detailed look at the inner egg."

"Then, let me pack this egg too," Officer Shiratori gestured to Jiroji Suzuki with his backpack. "Anyway, I brought a backpack to carry an egg, and it doesn't matter if I carry an extra egg."

Qianyu took off her backpack without making a sound~www.readwn.com~ After taking out something, she planned to put it on the ground, but was stopped by Haibara Ai and turned her back on her.

"Yes, absolutely!" Without any hesitation, Jiroyoshi wanted to entrust the egg to Officer Shiratori. But just when he was about to do it, Fei Yingri stopped him.

"Wait a minute, I think Officer Shiratori, you should ask for the approval of Miss Kasaka Natsumi, right?" She reminded everyone present. "Although the outer half of the egg is owned by the Suzuki Consortium, the inner half we found in the basement of Miss Kasaka Natsumi's castle. From this point of view, it should be Miss Natsumi's private property."

"Ah... It doesn't matter what I say," Kasaka Natsumi, who had been hesitant before, finally had the courage to express her opinion thanks to Fei Eri's righteous words. "Anyway... I'll ask the police officer Shiratori to keep it for me, and Consultant Suzuki to do the appraisal—let's just ask, this shouldn't require a high fee, right? I can't afford it in that case!"

"Don't worry, it's all free!" Jiroyoshi didn't really care about this, he just waved his hand.

But this time, someone came out to stop it.

"Wait," In the dim environment, Qianyu did a hand-spreading job like releasing a pigeon, and then took out the seamless umbrella that she had been holding before, ready to go. "Don't we need to catch the worms in our midst before we can make a triumphant declaration? It's not good for this white thief of unknown origin to get the fruit of victory."

Aiming the tip of her umbrella at Officer Shiratori, Chiba lowered her body weight slightly.

"I just checked with the Metropolitan Police Department. The real police officer Shiratori is currently on vacation in Hokkaido. Who are you?"
