When Director Jinchuan turned around with an ugly expression, the elevator had already reached the lower floor.
He stared angrily at the changing numbers on the display screen and rushed towards the stairs, intending to run to the first floor to block people.
…
When Director Jinchuan competed with the elevator for speed,
In the elevator, Conan praised the children, "Well done!" while pressing the button of the elevator, intending to make it stop midway. To avoid being blocked by the curator on the first floor.
Just, before he pressed the button. The downward trend of the elevator has slowed down and is about to stop.
Conan's first reaction was. The students finally got smart - without him having to say anything, they knew they couldn't go to the first floor now.
However, upon taking a closer look, Conan suddenly discovered that the floor button on the inside did not light up.
...In other words, the elevator will stop on the second floor, not because they chose the second floor, but because someone outside pressed the switch for the second floor for them!
Conan: "?!"
The curator's gloomy face appeared in Conan's mind, and a cold air rushed straight to his back.
He originally thought that his plan was enough to fool the angry Director Jinchuan.
Unexpectedly, this time, the curator actually predicted his prediction, saw through his plan to get off the elevator midway, and waited here leisurely!
…
Conan's face was livid, and he slapped the door button, trying to prevent the elevator from opening.
However, it was no use. He could only grit his teeth and watch the elevator stop.
At this time, Conan deeply realized what it means to use a book only when it is used.
——If he had just picked up a large book, he no longer had to face the dilemma of having "foot-strengthening shoes" but nothing to kick.
…
Under the desperate gazes of several children, the elevator finally stopped on the second floor.
Conan squatted down and turned on the switch of his sneakers.
——There is no other way. Since there is nothing to kick, we can only try sliding tackle again.
This time, as long as you pass by Director Tsukawa's crotch and kick his legs with a strength-enhancing shoe, or somewhere else, there may be a chance of survival.
With this thought in mind, Conan clung to the back of the elevator car. When the door opened, he pushed hard on the wall and slid out.
However, before Conan could make a long-planned kick, a swinging stick struck him lightly.
Conan's trajectory suddenly shifted significantly. He slid out and slammed into the wall next to him.
Conan: "..."
……etc.
Why does the stick that pulls him look so familiar?
Conan jumped up and was surprised to see Jiang Xia standing at the elevator entrance.
…
Jiang Xia was carrying an unfolded swinging stick and didn't ask why Conan suddenly made a guest appearance as a mower.
He looked at the three children in the elevator and ordered concisely: "Come out."
Mitsuhiko and Genta huddled together and looked at Conan who was defeated in an instant. They felt that they were no match and walked out tremblingly.
Ayumi was calmer than the two boys.
She recognized Jiang Xia as the person who saved her and Conan in the dungeon last time.
This time when she encountered danger, brother Jiang Xia actually appeared again... Ayumi thought about it, with kilakila's stars in her eyes.
…
When a few naughty kids walked out of the elevator.
Jiang Xia passed by the children and entered the elevator.
Then I pressed the button for the 1st floor.
The elevator door gradually closed under the blank stares of the naughty children.
Before the door was completely closed, Jiang Xia glanced at them through the crack of the door: "Stay where you are and don't make any sound."
The four children subconsciously stood at attention and nodded in unison.
…
Library stairwell.
Director Jinchuan carried the metal water pipe and went straight to the first floor with a ferocious expression.
Rushing to the elevator, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the elevator was still moving from the second floor to the first floor.
He didn't think too deeply about why he could run so fast. He just thought that his extreme anger activated his unlimited potential.
…
Soon, with a ding, the elevator stopped on the first floor.
Director Jinchuan couldn't wait to reach out and grab the elevator door that had just opened a crack: "Let me see where you are going this time..."
Boom——
A slender black shadow crossed the crack of the door and hit Director Jinchuan precisely on the forehead.
Director Jinchuan was stunned. Before he could recover, he was hit hard in the abdomen.
He flew backwards, hit the wall and slipped. In the chaos, the curator saw a person walking out of the elevator with backlight - the person in the elevator was not the "weak little naughty kid" he thought at all, but looked taller than him.
…When did this person enter the library? !
How much did he know about the drugs and the corpse? What does it have to do with those kids? ? Is there still time to silence him? !
Director Jinchuan looked at the approaching Jiang Xia, then at the stick he raised, and panicked: "...What do you want to do?!"
"Come and return the book." Jiang Xia threw the "Detective Manual" at him, "By the way, do something brave."
Amidst the sound of book pages flying, the elevator door closed behind Jiang Xia. The bright elevator light converged into a narrow line and eventually disappeared completely. The corridor suddenly returned to darkness.
Before the last ray of light disappeared, Director Jinchuan saw the "ordinary citizen who came to return the book" swinging the swing stick in his hand and making a whooshing sound, and then looked down at him, with a strange look of expectation on the corner of his mouth. Smile.
Director Jinchuan: "..."
...Don't come over! ! !
…
Fifteen minutes later.
The Mumu Police Department anxiously arrived and found a purple pig in the library... No, it was a swollen Director Jinchuan.
"..." Officer Sato stretched out his hand and poked Director Tsukawa lightly, receiving a painful wail.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, no one died.
…
Next to them, three children stood as quietly as chickens with dazed eyes.
When Jiang Xia moved, they all shivered and huddled together, not daring to make a sound.
Jiang Xia did not go towards them.
He just walked to Sato and whispered apologetically: "I'm sorry, Director Tsukawa shouted that he wanted to silence all the children. It was very dark in the corridor at that time, and he was very familiar with the library. I was afraid of him. If you run away, you will hurt the children. If you are in a hurry, you may accidentally strike too hard..."
A word came to the lips of "several children" simultaneously - lie!
Then he swallowed it silently.
"..." I dare not say it.
Moreover, although Jiang Xia was a little cruel, he did save them.
A few children, relying on their simple emotions, felt that they could not do such a thing as stabbing their benefactor in the back.
…
Miwako Sato did not notice the fear of several children.
She patted Jiang Xia's shoulder and encouraged, "You did nothing wrong."
To be honest, after learning what Director Tsukawa had done, Officer Sato simply wanted to praise Jiang Xia for "a good fight."
…But unfortunately, the police can’t say that.
So she could only remind her kindly: "But don't be so impulsive in the future, otherwise you will be in trouble if the prisoner dies."
"Yes." Jiang Xia nodded gently, "Be careful next time."
