Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 930
Yuantai!

Conan gritted his teeth and quickly got out of bed.

But after sitting cross-legged for a long time, he got out of bed immediately, his legs were still a little numb, but time was running out, so Conan didn't care so much, and limped towards the door.

"Yuan Tai!"

"..."

No one responded on the second floor, so Conan could only think that Genta and Mitsuhiko went to the toilet on the first floor.

Holding on to the railing to the first floor, Conan shouted again.

"Yuan Tai!"

"Conan! I'm here..."

Following the direction of the sound, Conan walked through the long corridor by the light of the watch-shaped flashlight, passed the restaurant where he had dinner just halfway, and came to the door of the kitchen.

I saw Yuan Tai sitting at the door of the kitchen, his fat body was like a small meat mountain, and the expression on his face was still in shock.

"Yuantai, why are you here? Didn't you go to the bathroom with Mitsuhiko?"

"I……"

Facing Conan's question, Genta faltered, and only then did he reveal his real purpose for coming out.

"Actually, I came out to find something to eat...but I ran into someone here just now!"

Yuan Tai tremblingly pointed to the cooking counter in the kitchen, but it was illuminated by the cold moonlight outside the window, and now there was no one there.

Conan frowned and checked the kitchen. There was indeed no one there, so he went back to ask Yuanta.

"Does that person have any characteristics?"

Yuan Tai shook his head blankly, "It's too dark, I couldn't see clearly...but he is tall, he must be an adult."

"I came over and saw him, and he saw me, and then he just ran past me."

adults?
There was some doubt in Conan's eyes. The servants and staff in the museum should have all withdrawn in advance for the fairness of the puzzle challenge.

Logically speaking, apart from Mr. Clock, there should be no other adults in the Angel's Pavilion.

But who is this person?

And why in the kitchen?

Conan walked into the kitchen and stepped on a stool to check the cooking counter.

On the cooking table was the leftover dinner of the Detective Boys, steak, bread, fruit salad, etc.

But there was still a lot of food left, and it was basically eaten up. There was not a single steak left, two small breads left, and only the salad dressing on the plate left in the fruit salad.

Conan wondered, is this person here to eat?
At this time, Yuan Tai also jumped onto the stool, and when she saw that there was not much food left on the table, she cried out in great disappointment.

"Ah! My delicious food!"

Ignoring Genta's disappointment, Conan jumped off the stool and said, "Forget it, let's leave quickly."

"If Mr. Clock finds that the food is missing, he will definitely think that we stole it..."

As soon as Mr. Clock was mentioned, Mrs. Yuan quickly jumped off the stool, not even daring to reach out for the remaining two breads.

The two walked out of the kitchen, and Conan asked again: "By the way, where did Mitsuhiko go?"

Yuan Tai thought for a while, "He seems to have said that he would go to the East Pavilion to take a look..."

"East Pavilion?"

Conan was only puzzled for a moment, and then remembered that the East Building was the only place in all the buildings that lacked care. With Mitsuhiko's elementary school thinking, it is normal to suspect that there are treasures hidden there.

It's just that in Conan's judgment, everything must be based on the puzzle, and such an obvious hint is impossible.

But when I learned that Mitsuhiko went to the East Pavilion alone, I had to look for it. If there were any dangers such as traps inside, it would be troublesome.

But when Yuriko Matsunaka was left alone in the servant's room on the second floor, Conan felt worried.

Yuriko Matsunaka is the direct heir of the will. According to the guess just now, if Mr. Clock is also one of the heirs in the will, it might be bad for Yuriko Matsunaka.

Both sides are worried, Conan can only think of the "mother" of the Boys Detective Team, Haibara Ai.

"Let's go, let's go to Huiyuan first."

……

Conan and Yuanta came to the toilet on the other side of the first floor. Since it is a public toilet for servants and staff, the toilet is divided into men and women.

"Huihara, are you in there?" Conan stood at the door of the women's toilet and shouted towards the inside.

However, there was no sound inside, and no one answered.

"Grey Yuan!"

There was still no answer in the toilet.

With a bad premonition in his heart, Conan lost his patience and walked directly into the women's toilet.

Yuan Tai was taken aback by this bold move, and blushed to dissuade him, "Conan, that's the women's toilet..."

But Conan didn't care about these taboos, and the child's body was nothing to see, so he pushed open the door of the first toilet cubicle.

Nobody inside.

The second door was still empty.

The third fan...

Pushing all the way to the last door, no one was found.

Obviously, Haibara Ai and Ayumi also went without authorization.

Realizing this, Conan stomped his feet angrily.

"There is really no one to worry about!"

……

Outside the North Pavilion, a figure squatted behind the grass, calming down a little.

This person is Qin Zhibo.

Ten minutes ago, Qin Zhibo sneaked into the North Pavilion to look for food, and happened to find the leftovers from the dinner of the Detective Boys in the kitchen.

But when he was about to finish eating, Yuan Tai suddenly appeared at the kitchen door, forcing Qin Zhibo to leave there quickly.

Although he knew the boy detective team, Qin Zhibo couldn't reveal his identity now.

Because once Mr. Clock finds himself in this place, the next plan may be seen through.

And Qin Zhibo's plan was to use Belmode's fake fragments to replace Isekawa Gozo's real fragments.

Although I don't know the specific method of using Panest's fragments, since Mr. Clock let himself take fake fragments, he must have set a trap for himself in this way.

In this case, all I have to do is cheat, give it the fake fragments, and hold the real fragments myself, and set a trap for it in turn.

Mr. Clock never imagined that he had obtained information about the true and false fragments at the same time through his transactions with Belmode and the boss.

This kind of uncertainty in human beings is the unique charm of human beings, which an alien creature will never be able to guess.

As for the way to exchange the fragments, as long as you put the fake fragments of Belmode in the pedestal of the Southern Angel, and wait for Conan to solve the puzzle by himself, Mr. Clock will naturally get what he thought he got.

Therefore, before Mr. Clock gets the fragments and leaves, he cannot be allowed to discover his existence, otherwise he will definitely be more vigilant.

For this reason, Qin Zhibo has already sent Haruyume Minase to keep an eye on Mr. Clock.

The current Mr. Clock is on the fourth floor of the North Pavilion. It seems to be in a dormant state, and it is a good time to act.

It is too late in time to enter the Southern Angel Base like in the daytime.

Because judging from the puzzle, only at 12 o'clock in the noon, the high-voltage electricity there will disappear and the mechanism will be opened.

But if you do the opposite and enter from the exit of the underground labyrinth in the East Pavilion, there should be a way to return to the platform in the base and put the fake fragments into the glass bottle.

Qin Zhibo planned what he was going to do next, and started heading towards the East Pavilion.

But as soon as he got up and moved, he realized that he had something in his hand.

Looking down, I realized that when I ran away from the kitchen just now, because I was too anxious, I forgot to put the knife back.

Then hold on to it first.

Knife+1
……

Among the bushes in the courtyard, Qin Zhibo shuttled cautiously.

Although he knew that there was no one standing guard on the lighthouse, he subconsciously avoided the light of the searchlight.

Purely psychological.

When passing by the Angel Base of the Northern Angel, he accidentally saw two female members of the Boy Detective Team.

I saw Haibara Ai and Ayumi walking around the wall of the huge pedestal under the Angel of the North, groping forward with both hands.

The second daughter didn't notice that Qin Zhibo, who was hiding in the grass not far away, was still groping and talking.

"Xiao Ai, let me ask you, how do angels fall from the sky?"

"I'm just looking for a way now..."

Hui Yuanai responded softly, and continued to grope the wall.

But in the eyes of Qin Zhibo in the rear, the base of the wall where the two girls were groping, like the base of the Southern Angel, has investigation points.

There is also a high voltage on it.

If two children touch it, they will be electrocuted and crippled if they don't die.

Seeing that the second daughter was about to touch the switch, in a hurry, Qin Zhibo didn't have time to use the flash gun to remind him, so he directly pulled out the table knife from his arms and threw it at the wall next to the second daughter.

Knife-1
On the side of the pedestal, Hui Yuanai, triggered by his sixth sense, shrank his pupils, turned his head suddenly, and saw a silver sharp weapon flying towards him.

"careful!"

Haibara Ai reacted quickly, throwing Ayumi behind her all at once.

But the sharp weapon was not thrown at them at all. The sharp weapon collided with the wall, instantly sparking a blue electric current.

Nourishes—

The high-voltage power grid appeared in front of Hui Yuanai, and it also made her understand that the wall further ahead was electrified.

Seeing that Hui Yuanai understood the trap here, Qin Zhibo didn't stop, and quickly turned and ran away.

Hui Yuanai's ears trembled when he heard the movement, and he hurriedly got up to chase after him, but the man had already disappeared in the dimly lit place.

Hui Yuanai looked around, with cold sweat on his temples, and realized that this place was not as safe as it seemed.

It seems better to go back first...

……

After saving Haibara Ai and Ayumi, Qin Zhibo continued to move towards the East House.

Soon, he came to the window that had opened a gap in the afternoon.

Just as he was about to open the window and slip in, a small body accidentally bumped in from the other side of the magic flipped wall.

Qin Zhibo stopped his movements and took a closer look, it turned out to be Guangyan.

This gave Qin Zhibo quite a headache. How could he meet people from the Boy Detective Team wherever he went?
It was as if God was saying, "Stop it, Ah Qin, there are young detectives outside!"

There was no way, Qin Zhibo could only quietly watch what kind of plane Guangyan was going to make.

Fortunately, Mr. Clock packed away the device of the brain storage tube at noon, otherwise if Mitsuhiko sees it, he will definitely be scared out of the childhood shadow that will never be erased.

In the room, Mitsuhiko didn't notice a figure standing outside the window behind him, watching him closely through the window.

He felt around the room, looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the golden bull ornament above the fireplace.

He took the note that recorded the puzzle and compared it carefully, his eyes suddenly brightened.

This cow has no horns on its head!
Coincidentally, the golden bull on the fireplace does not have horns, or broken horns.

"When the horns on the bull's head disappear, the tail becomes the head..."

"head……"

Mitsuhiko muttered the riddle to himself while swapping the head and tail of the Taurus Ornament.

After a few coherent rubbing sounds, the Taurus was adjusted, but nothing happened.

But Mitsuhiko believed in his heart that this was the mechanism described in the puzzle, and bent down into the fireplace to search, and he found a passage leading to the deep place.

"great!"

"I knew it!"

Mitsuhiko was overjoyed, and immediately ducked inside.

And all of this was seen by Qin Zhibo standing outside the window.

you know fart...

In Qin Zhibo's view, the golden bull ornament above the fireplace is not a mechanism at all, but a simple pure gold ornament, which just happens to have no horns.

Mitsuhiko turned the golden bull ornament and felt that the mechanism was triggered. It was entirely because the weight of the pure gold ornament was too heavy, as if it was turning a certain mechanism.

In fact, there is no mechanical device connected to the Taurus at all, and it can be lifted as a whole.

And the passage in the fireplace is always open, the fireplace is a fake fireplace at all, without any mechanisms.

Below the fireplace is connected to the underground labyrinth of the Angel's Pavilion, and Mitsuhiko must have entered it.

Although there seemed to be no traps installed in the maze, Qin Zhibo was a little worried that Guangyan would get lost in it, so Qin Zhibo could only open the window and followed into the passage of the fireplace.

……

At the end of the passage under the fireplace, Mitsuhiko entered the maze logically.

He turned on the watch-type flashlight that comes standard with the Detective Boys, and continued his exploration by the light.

"anyone there?"

"Is there anyone here!"

As Mitsuhiko walked, he politely asked if there was anyone inside.

At this time, Qin Zhibo who was following behind wanted to answer.

Have……

For Guangyan's safety, Qin Zhibo is ready to put on the "Lord of the Rings" at any time to escort him.

If Conan is the father of this group of children, then he is at least a grandfather.

After walking along with Mitsuhiko for a certain distance, passing through the trapezoidal corridors, the light of Mitsuhiko's watch finally touched the corpse on the ground.

This is the corpse that was randomly thrown here after the brain was cut open by Mr. Clock, and it was hit by Mitsuhiko.

"what!"

Mitsuhiko saw the dense bones in a gray suit on the ground, and fell to the ground, screaming out of fright.

His body trembled on the spot for a few seconds before he realized that he even rolled and crawled back the way he came from.

Bye, bye~
Looking at Guangyan's escaped back, Qin Zhibo said goodbye in his heart.

Without any obstacles, Qin Zhibo can start his own plan.

Although this place is called a maze, Qin Zhibo's navigator is designed to restrain the maze. As long as he is in the maze, the map of the maze will automatically appear in his head.

Ten minutes later, Qin Zhibo came to the base of the Southern Angel.

Find the mechanical control lever in the hidden place, and when you pull it, the upper ground cover will open to both sides.

Qin Zhibo used [Flying Claw] to climb to the top of the slope of the slide, and took out a Panest fragment from his pocket.

After confirming again and again that it was the fragment given by Belmode, he put the fragment into the glass bottle that was glued to the ground.

With a clang, the shards entered the glass bottle.

Qin Zhibo put the plug on it, then slid down, pushed the joystick back, the ground cover closed again, and everything returned to the way it was before noon.

Except for the fragments in the bottle, which have been swapped out.
