The housekeeper and others heard the noise and came over. "80 years ago, Master Xiyi built an anti-theft device. Please be careful."

General Qian gritted his teeth and finally did not snatch the jewels in front of everyone.

The study room of Kosaka Natsumi's great-grandfather Kiichi. The cabinets around the walls are filled with books, as well as some paintings and photos.

"Is this Mr. Kiichi?"

Maori asked, looking at the photos in the room.

In the study, whether it is work photos or group photos, there is a middle-aged man. He looks very elegant. No wonder he has such a beautiful great-granddaughter like Kosaka Natsumi.

"what!"

Qian Jiangyi suddenly exclaimed, "Isn't this Rasputin? There's even his signature on it!"

Xiaolan looked at the man in the photo who had sunken eye sockets and a beard, who looked like a religious leader, and asked Maori, "Hey, Dad, who is Rasputin?"

"The strange monk Rasputin, later scholars all believed that he was the culprit for the demise of the Romanov dynasty. He once held power, but was eventually killed."

Mao Li said in a deep voice, observing Pu Si's beautiful legs from the corner of his eyes, "When people found his body in the river, his skull was sunken and his right eye was dug out..."

"hiss--"

Yuanzi gasped and hugged Xiaolan tightly in fear.

at this time--

"Hey, look here!"

Conan suddenly spoke. He found a mechanical device on the floor, which turned out to be a Russian password input keyboard.

"Is this the mechanism used to open the secret room?"

Qian Jiangyi was pleasantly surprised and said, "The password must be memories, it must be the Russian word for memories."

The secretary of the Russian consulate stepped forward and punched in the code, then shook his head: "It doesn't look like a memory."

"Could that be Mr. Kiichi's name?"

"Mr. Kiichi..."

Mao Li stood at the back, silently looking at the anxious crowd, his eyes falling on Pu Si Qinglan.

No matter it was the murderous intent that flashed across her eyes when he was recounting the story of Rasputin just now, or the level of Russian she demonstrated when guessing the password of the secret room, he had already regarded Pu Simei as a Scorching Soldiers.

In the process of searching for the second egg of memories, Maori will keep an eye on her the whole time...

"boom!"

A dull sound interrupted Maori's thoughts. After the clerk pressed the new password, the floor next to him immediately shook and separated, revealing a deep secret passage in the flying dust.

"The password turned out to be a magician at the end of the century..."

"Isn't it from Kidd's notice?"

"It must be a coincidence."

Officer Shiratori took the lead with a flashlight and walked into the secret passage, followed by the others.

Mao Li followed behind Pu Siqinglan. As they went deeper, he tightened the black umbrella in his hand. However, Pu Siqinglan showed no signs of abnormality. Instead, Qian Jiangyi was the last one to fall behind.

The dim tunnel seemed to have no end. After walking for a long time, the group only walked down two flights of stairs. Although they entered a spacious underground hall, there was still a deep passage ahead.

Maori grabbed Xiaolan, who was looking around, and left behind the crowd alone.

"dad?"

"Go back soon, Xiaolan,"

Mao Li leaned closer and whispered, "Go back to the ground right now and contact Officer Megure and tell him that Scott is here..."

"what happened?"

Qian Jiang turned back suspiciously.

"Ah, Xiaolan seems to be feeling a little unwell,"

Mao Li scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I plan to let her go back first."

"Humph,"

Qian Jiangyi was already somewhat dissatisfied with Mao Li for catching him before, and now he took the opportunity to vent, "We have come this far, as a famous detective, don't you know how to teach your daughter not to cause trouble for everyone..."

"..."

Maori raised his eyebrows and didn't bother to argue with this kind of guy - but he wouldn't just let him talk shit like that. He planned to visit this guy's home with Conan and Osaka Black Chicken after this matter was over.

There is no other meaning, just a pure visit, drink tea and take a look.

Yuan Zi, who was walking in front, asked worriedly, "Xiao Lan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine,"

Xiaolan forced a smile, "But Yuanzi, can you go back with me?"

"Eh?"

"Why don't you go back together, Sonoko-sister, Xiaolan-sister?"

Conan understood Maori's meaning very well and continued, "Uncle Maori and everyone are here, nothing will happen."

"That......"

Xiaolan and Sonoko looked at each other and nodded at the same time, "We will go back first."

Chapter 82: The Maori father and daughter dodging bullets and the Scott soldier vomiting blood

On the other side of the underground passage, Ayumi and her friends, who Mori had been worried about, finally found the secret passage from another entrance. Although they fell into the trap by accident, the children did not wait for Dr. Agasa to rescue them. Instead, they enthusiastically went deeper into the underground passage with the help of watch flashlights led by Ai.

But after walking for a while, he was no longer as excited as he said at the beginning. Instead, he felt a little scared when looking at the dark stone walls around him.

"I wonder if Conan and the others are in there..."

"Let's find the exit first."

Xiao Ai was much calmer: "If anything happens later, run back immediately."

……

The underground passage built by Natsumi Kosaka's grandfather was a huge project. Mori and the others never reached the end on the other side, but instead found a narrow branch road.

"There seems to be some sound."

Conan ran into the fork vigilantly to check, and when he found that it was Ai and the others, he couldn't help but reveal his signature dead fish eyes.

"Why are you guys?"

"Conan!"

Unlike Conan, Ayumi and the others were quite happy and excitedly joined the group.

"I can't stand it..." Conan sighed, and returned to the fork in the road, only to find that Maori, Qian Jiangyi and Pu Si Qinglan were nowhere to be seen.

"Ms. Xia Mei, where are Uncle Maori and the others?"

"I don't know," Kosaka Natsumi said after realizing it and shook her head, "Strange, the one who was behind me just now..."

"Don't worry about them," Officer Shiratori looked at the dark secret passage behind them, "They must have gotten separated somewhere. With Mr. Maori here, they will catch up soon."

……

At the corner of the secret passage, Qian Jiangyi walked back with a flashlight in confusion. After climbing a flight of stairs, his expression changed drastically and his right eye was instantly locked by a red dot.

"It's you……"

"Bang!" The sound of the gunshot after being silenced did not echo far away. Only the wide-eyed Qian Jiang fell to the ground with a muffled sound. Blood gushed out of his right eye like a fountain, dyeing the ground red in an instant.

"It's really you..."

Maori stopped at the corner with a serious expression.

"Huh?!" On the other side of the corner, Pu Siqinglan tensed up and quickly pointed the pistol at the entrance of the cave.

"Miss Qinglan... No, it would be more appropriate to call you Shi Kaobing, right?"

Maori held a black umbrella and walked out nonchalantly.

"As expected of a famous detective, I should have hidden myself well. Have you been eyeing me for a long time?" Pu Siqinglan raised the corner of his mouth, his fierce expression returned to his nature, but he did not rush to shoot, but locked onto Mao Li's right eye. "But he actually walked out by himself, what an idiot, why don't you just run away honestly?"

"it's useless,"

Mao Li looked directly at Pu Siqinglan's movements and said, "I bet your gun...your bullets can't hit me."

"Want to try?"

Pu Siqinglan frowned slightly and stared at Maori's face in the dim light, but could not find a trace of panic or tension.

"You can try if you want. But before you shoot, I want to confirm some things," Maori said calmly. "You should be the descendant of the strange monk Rasputin, right? You specialize in sniping the right eye, the gray eye, and you specialize in stealing the treasures of the Romanov dynasty... The reason why Mr. Hanchuan was killed by you, in addition to because you wanted to get the precious ring, it is probably because he accidentally took pictures that can prove your relationship with the strange monk Rasputin..."

Pu Siqinglan's expression changed slightly: "You actually figured out all these things..."

"For a famous detective, this is just basic operation," Mao Li held the black umbrella tightly and began to gather strength, "I have been looking for an opportunity, waiting for you to separate from everyone or when you were ready to take action, but I didn't expect Qian Jiang to find out in advance and you died."

"Humph, if he didn't come after me, how could I have taken action now?" Pu Siqinglan's eyes turned cold and he pulled the trigger directly. "Of course I say goodbye to you, you famous detective who is also smart..."

"boom!"

The bullet grazed Mao Li's ear and shot into the stone wall. Pu Si Qinglan swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth. Watching Mao Li rushing towards her with a black umbrella, she hurriedly fired two more shots, then gritted her teeth and ran into the secret passage behind her.

"Boom!"

All the bullets shot by Pu Siqinglan were blocked by the black umbrella held up by Maori, and did not hurt Maori at all.

"Damn!!"

Pu Siqinglan fled towards the entrance of the secret room in shock and fear.

She really didn't expect that Maori could dodge her first bullet, and she really didn't expect that the umbrella in Maori's hand could be bulletproof.

But no matter what, the most important Egg of Memory has not been obtained yet. Whether for the sake of treasure hunting or hiding her identity, she must get rid of Mao Li quickly, otherwise other people will notice the problem sooner or later.

There happened to be two girls up there who could be used as hostages...

Pu Siqinglan sneered - no matter how powerful the famous detective Mao Li was, as long as she could capture his weak daughter, the father and daughter would let her control them.

……

After running down a long staircase, the entrance to the secret room remained the same. Pu Siqinglan and Mao Li ran in and out of the entrance one after another, but there was no one outside. The two girls were not in the study.

Suddenly thinking of the scene when Maori asked the two girls to leave, he turned back to look at Maori with a grim expression.

"Could it be that you..."

"That's right. How can I feel at ease knowing that a soldier like you is here?"

Mao Li once again used the black umbrella to block the bullet aimed at him, and continued to chase Pu Si Qinglan with a knife.

Xiaolan and Sonoko have already called the police. Unless Pu Siqinglan has a hang glider like Kidd, she will definitely not be able to escape today...

"biubiu!"

In the dim knight's room on the first floor, a bullet suddenly hit the armor displayed on both sides, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps, and another shot.

Even with a silencer, the sound of the gun was still extremely clear in the dark, at least allowing Maori to identify Pu Siqinglan's position and avoid approaching rashly.

This international wanted criminal was not only an accurate shooter, but also extremely calm. He almost never gave Maori any chance to get close and make a fatal move, and he had been using the distance advantage of his gun to suppress him from a distance.

However, this suppression was obviously coming to an end. Pu Siqinglan, the killer who had been in the dark before, was now more anxious than him after being forced into the open - after all, including the previous shooting of Qian Jiangyi, she had already fired 7 bullets, and the magazine capacity of the Walther PPKS pistol in her hand was only eight bullets, with at most two bullets left with the one in the chamber.

Once she ran out of bullets, she would be exposed no matter how fast she changed the magazine...

Without hiding behind armor anymore, Maori revealed himself and stood at the exit of the knight's room, blocking the passage out of the castle.

"biu!"

"Huh?" Pu Si Qinglan raised his pistol and fired a shot reflexively, but was blocked by Maori's black umbrella again. His face suddenly changed, and he soon thought of the same thing as Maori.
