Conan's Corpse Picker

He paced the hallway, trying to cool himself off.

Halfway through the walk, Conan moved his ears and suddenly heard a noise.

He followed the sound and looked towards the corner of the corridor.

I saw an extra black coat on the ground there.

Conan's pupils shrank... It wasn't that he thought of the members of the black organization, but Jiang Xia.

——Jiang Xia often wears black from head to toe, and even likes to pick black for such trivial things as scarves, masks, stationery boxes.

And when Jiang Xia disappeared, a coat of the same color suddenly fell nearby... Could it be Jiang Xia's clothes?

Conan was puzzled for a moment, walked over quickly, picked up his coat and checked.

……

Behind Conan, in the gap in the secret passage on the wall.

A pair of eyes, watching this scene quietly.

Xi Chuan Suimi stuck to the door of the secret passage, and when she saw the child approaching, she sneered and took out her wooden stick, ready to knock Conan unconscious with one stick and drag him into the secret passage.

However, the moment she was about to open the secret door.

Another footstep suddenly approached.

Toru Amuro approached and looked at the thing in Conan's hand: "This is...?"

"A piece of clothing." Conan shook off the clothes and looked at them, frowning slightly, "I thought it was brother Jiang Xia's coat, but now it seems that it's just the same color."

So... why is there a piece of clothing falling out here?

Toru Amuro obviously also thought of this question.

He raised his head thoughtfully and surveyed the surrounding scenery.

……

Behind the wall, Xi Chuan Suimei gradually oozes cold sweat.

——On weekdays, she often wanders around in secret passages, looking for treasures.Therefore, each secret passageway will leave some traces of opening.

And Nishikawa Suimi remembered that Toru Amuro, who was separated by a wall, seemed to be a detective too.If he observes carefully and finds the entrance to the secret passage...

Xi Chuan Suimei: "..." No, the body of the Mrs. Tai in the secret passage must not be discovered by more people!

Rather than waiting for Toru Amuro to find the secret way, it is better to preemptively... Nishikawa Suimi's mind is full of evil thoughts of "killing the mouth".

Toru Amuro was just looking at the opposite wall, with his back to this side.

Xi Chuan Suimi gritted her teeth, pushed open the secret door, and hit the back of his head with a stick.

Conan was startled, and was about to shout "Be careful!".

However, Toru Amuro seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly raised his hand backwards, precisely intercepting the fake old lady's wrist holding the wooden stick.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the situation and elbow him, but when he saw the sneak attacker, Toru Amuro paused.

——This old lady always feels that if she hits her, she might be sent directly to cremation... But, having said that, this "old lady"'s wrist doesn't feel old when she grabs it.

Toru Amuro snatched Nishikawa Suimi's stick and threw it aside, detained the person, wondering, "Why did you attack me? What's your purpose? Who sent you here, or is it your own idea?"

……

As he asked, he looked at the strange old lady.

Although the opponent looked weak, he was actually even weaker... However, after arriving in the castle, this was the first person who showed obvious hostility towards him.

Just thinking about it, the old lady under him suddenly struggled and shouted: "Let go of me! Otherwise, you will never see that high school detective again!"

"..." Toru Amuro reacted for a while, then hesitated, "You want to say that you caught Jiang Xia?"

"Of course." The old woman sneered, bit the bullet and continued to throw harsh words, "Let go, or I guarantee he won't survive today!"

... Xi Chuan Suimei thought to herself, Jiang Xia happened to be missing anyway.Might as well take advantage of this first and pretend you're a hostage.

In this way, as long as Toru Amuro hesitates, she can take the opportunity to break free and rush into the secret passage to escape.

Xi Chuan Sui Mei was thinking about her future.

After a second or two, I realized that Toru Amuro was clasping her hand, not loosening it at all, and the "hostage" didn't seem to have played the threatening role it should have.

Suimi Nishikawa raised her head in doubt, and saw Conan and Toru Amuro watching her silently, their expressions were subtly synchronized.

That is a very complicated line of sight. If you have to visualize it, it can probably be translated as:...just you?

Chapter 92 I'm Really an Allied Force

Amuro Toru ignored Nishikawa Suimi's nonsense.

He carefully looked at the wall where Xi Chuan Suimi came out.He freed one hand and tapped on the wall, then tentatively grabbed the wall lamp and pulled it down.

Swah——

The wall swung open, revealing a deep passage.

Amuro looked inside and guessed: "Could it be that Jiang Xia got lost by herself, or couldn't come out for other reasons. You discovered this, so you are pretending to be a hostage..."

"Also." Amuro looked at Xi Chuan Suimi's wrist, "Although your face is very old, but in other places, you don't look like an 80-year-old man who sits in a wheelchair every day, and even came to attack you personally...you didn't Other helpers?"

Nishikawa Suimi: "..."

She regretted not running away decisively just now.

At this moment, he could only bite the bullet and sneered, "It's fine if you don't believe me."

……

Amuro was silent for a while.

After thinking for a moment, he planned to take a look in the secret passage.

He was trying to find a place to lock up Xi Chuan Sui Mei so that she wouldn't make trouble.

However, at this moment, there was a crash, and a huge shadow suddenly shrouded beside him—someone threw a huge curtain at him with a round head.

"!"

Amuro Toru seldom encounters such crooked sneak attacks, and there are old and young beside him, which influences his performance, and is accidentally caught by the cloth.

When it took him a while, he pulled off the cloth on his body, and pulled out Conan who was struggling beside him.

The fake old lady next to her disappeared.

Taking a closer look, a few meters ahead, an open wall is being closed, and a dark corner of the skirt faintly flashes through the gap.

"Stop!" Amuro Toru rushed over quickly, but it was already too late.

With a click, the overturned wall closed in front of him, and then was locked from the inside, unable to be opened again.

... The old lady was "rescued" away.

……

Toru Amuro: "..." This fake old lady actually has accomplices?

Speaking of which, the pattern on the black skirt of that "friend" looks familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere before.

"It was Anonymous who took Mrs. Tai away!"

Conan's voice came from the side.

Anonymous' main "attack" just now was Toru Amuro.Conan was only caught by the corners of the heavy curtains, luckily his head was exposed, and he could see the situation clearly.

"...Anonymous?"

After exchanging information, the two wise men looked at each other for a moment and fell silent for a while.At the same time, huge doubts emerged in my heart.

——Why did Anonymous appear in this ancient castle, and even mixed up with Mrs. Tai?

……

When the two teammates fell into the vortex of brain supplementation.

the other side.

Jiang Xia drove Miyano Akemi's puppet, pulled Nishikawa Suimi who was snatched, and ran along the secret road.

Just now he threw the curtains at his teammates, purely to hinder their movements, not to prevent himself from being seen - anyway, "Anonymous" is just a non-existent person, his identity is very free, and he can wander around at will.

……

Xi Chuan Suimei was pulled into the secret passage, ran for a while, and finally recovered.

She looked at "Anonymous" in shock and doubt: "...Who are you?!"

Why do you look like you know so much about the secret way.And took care of that tough blonde detective for her...

Anonymous turned his head, smiled mysteriously at Xi Chuan Sui Mei, and asked instead: "Do you want to know where the 'treasure' is?"

Xi Chuan Suimi was taken aback, although her heart was full of question marks, but the "treasure" made her abandon her youthful face and identity, and lived for several years as an old lady in a desolate old castle. Or let her forget everything for a moment.

She grabbed Anonymous excitedly: "Where is it!?"

"The chess piece sculpture on the lawn refers to EGG HEAD, the old man who left the treasure. And there happens to be a portrait of him in the hall."

There was a hint of mysterious temptation in Anonymous' tone, "Turn it to the left, and the entrance to the treasure will be revealed."

Xi Chuan Suimi's eyes lit up, and her heart started beating wildly.

She shook off Anonymous, identified the direction, turned around in a stumble, and rushed to the exit of the secret passage closest to the portrait.

Chapter 93 You fell down

Jiang Xia drove the puppet, looked at Xi Chuan Suimi's back calmly, and followed without haste.

……

Xi Chuan Suimei ran into the hall along the secret path.

Fortunately, there was no one in the hall at this time.

She ran to the huge portrait of the Grand Master, and pushed it away to the left as Anonymous said.
