Gin doesn't want to work hard

A series of footsteps came from behind, it was Senma Kagami.

An inexplicable sense of tension made her dare not stray too far from Kurosawa.

It seemed that if the two of them were even slightly apart, something unpredictable would happen.

Kurosawa didn't care about Chima Kazuyo's approach.

Whether you get close or far away, it has no impact on the final result.

Soon, the two arrived at the door one after the other.

The door to the game room was closed.

Kurosawa's hand was still raised, clearly unable to open the door.

He then stopped in front of the gate, looking as if he was waiting for Senma Kōdai to speak.

Chima Kazuyo, waiting behind Kurosawa to open the door: ...

There's no need to be so obedient.

“…Open the door,” Chima Kazuyo ordered helplessly.

She couldn't possibly walk in front of Kurosawa and expose her back to him.

Therefore, only Kurosawa could open the door.

Kurosawa lowered his right hand, and the pen that had been tucked into his sleeve slid back into his hand.

"Click."

Kurosawa pressed the handle and pushed the door open.

Without needing to be told, Kurosawa took the lead and walked out.

Senjō followed closely behind.

"Go to the right."

Kurosawa nodded, but as he turned around, he raised his hand and pressed a button on the pen.

The next moment, an anesthetic needle was fired and landed on Chima Kazuyo's body.

The two were so close that Chima Kazuyo had no way to dodge and no time to react.

"you……"

Chima Kazuyo's eyes widened suddenly, and she only managed to utter one syllable before her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Chapter 284 Da Shang Zhu Shan's Confession

Kurosawa looked down at Chima Kazuyo, who was slumped against the door, and wondered if he should find a rope to tie her up.

Although the other party is old, he is still the mastermind behind everything, and he should be given the respect he deserves.

"Da da da……"

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from around the corner ahead.

Kurosawa looked up.

It's Conan and his friends.

"Kurosawa-kun?"

Upon seeing Kurosawa standing at the door, Conan exclaimed in surprise.

"Why are you here?"

"What happened?"

"Ms. Senma, she..."

Conan didn't finish his sentence because he saw Chima Kazuyo lying on the ground.

The people behind him also noticed this.

The detectives' expressions varied.

After learning from Daikami Shūzen that Senma Kōdai was his accomplice, they rushed back.

But I never expected to see this scene.

All eyes fell on Kurosawa, waiting for his explanation.

Just as Kurosawa was about to speak, another voice called out from behind him.

"Kurosawa-kun?"

However, Ran Mouri and Ikumi Gunta, who had gone to the restroom, returned.

Immediately afterwards, Ran Mouri noticed Senma Fukushiro lying on the ground.

She exclaimed instinctively.

"Ms. Senjang? Is she alright? What happened?"

Okay, everyone's here.

This will save him from having to explain it again later.

Kurosawa nodded slightly and began to recount what had happened.

After briefly recounting the story of how Chima Kazuyo planned to take him hostage but was instead drugged, Kurosawa looked at the thoughtful crowd and didn't interrupt further.

He walked up to Conan and returned the watch to him.

"The doctor gave me quite a few gadgets, so there's no need to give me the watch in the future. It wouldn't be good if you got hurt because of it."

As he spoke, Kurosawa casually ruffled Conan's hair.

The hair of the people in the Detective Conan world just feels so good.

After having his fill of playing with his hands, Kurosawa withdrew them with satisfaction.

Conan paid no attention to Kurosawa's actions; he was putting the watch back on his wrist.

After Kurosawa mentioned using a pen-shaped tranquilizer gun to knock out Chima Kazuyo, Conan knew that his previous actions had been unnecessary.

But he doesn't regret it; having multiple watches means having more protection, right?

Moreover, he didn't know at the time that Kurosawa had other gadgets on him.

However, Kurosawa's luck was indeed not very good.

It seems that every time he goes out, he encounters this situation of being chosen as a hostage.

"In this way, the incident can be considered resolved satisfactorily."

Kogoro Mouri stretched and couldn't help but complain.

"I'm exhausted. I came all this way, and I didn't even get to eat dinner."

"I think we should hurry up and leave here, and go home."

"Uncle, aren't you curious about the treasure?" Conan asked, looking up.

Kogoro Mouri rolled his eyes inelegantly. "What treasure?"

"Leaving aside how long those two guys searched on their own, even the scholars from forty years ago spent nearly half a year without finding it."

"I think this so-called treasure doesn't exist at all!"

"Impossible!" Ooue Shuzen, who had been following the detectives with his hands tied and remained silent, couldn't help but retort.

"The treasure definitely exists, otherwise that guy wouldn't..."

Halfway through his sentence, Da Shang Zhu Shan realized he had spoken out of turn and immediately shut up.

Nevertheless, the detectives keenly sensed that something was amiss.

"Looks like you're hiding something from us." Hakuba Saguru looked Ogami Shuzen up and down, pondering how to get information out of him.

"Tell me, what are you hiding?" Mogi Harufumi was much more direct, asking Oogami Shuzen bluntly.

Da Shang Zhu Shan naturally did not answer; he kept his mouth tightly shut and remained silent.

His plan to find the treasure has failed; the secret must not be exposed again!

"You said before that you bought this villa because of the treasure inside, right?"

"In other words, once we find the treasure, it will all belong to you."

"Even so, you're not going to tell us the truth, thus making it easier for us to find the treasure?"

Ikumi Gunda started from a different angle.

Da Shang Zhu Shan was somewhat tempted upon hearing this.

"You...you're still willing to help me find the treasure?"

"I'm not helping you, I'm just trying to solve the mystery," Hakuba Saguru corrected.

"And this is based on the premise that you don't hide anything," Harufumi Mogi added.

Da Shang Zhu Shan's expression changed several times, and after hesitating for a long time, it seemed that he had made up his mind.

He spoke slowly.

"Ever since I learned of the treasure's location from Senjen, I've been searching for this villa."

"Perhaps I was lucky, because I quickly found the exact location of the villa and contacted its owner at the time."

"But when I asked to buy the villa, I was rejected."

"No matter how high the price I offered, that person wouldn't agree to sell the villa to me."

"But this only makes me more certain that there is some secret hidden in this villa."

"But what really convinced me that there was treasure in the villa was that thing."

At this point, Da Shang Zhu Shan paused for a moment.

He looked up at the detectives, seemingly hesitant about whether to continue.

But thinking of that considerable treasure, he still spoke up.
