The night after Jiang Xia called the police.
Conan took the other three naughty children and followed the treasure map. Finally, I successfully found a building with "Oni Sakura" written on it.
At this time, let alone the three first-grade children.
Even Conan became excited when he thought about the gold coins that were enough to take a bath. After all, in the final analysis, he is just a 17-year-old plus-sized kid.
Several people cheered, Conan took the lead and ran into the building excitedly.
However, the moment he entered the door, Conan noticed something was wrong from the corner of his eye.
He turned his head suddenly and was shocked to find several tall and sneaky figures standing against the wall of the door.
Conan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately thought of the Italian robbers on the run.
He stopped and wanted to remind the students behind him to run away.
But before he could speak, the sneaky figure No. 1 stretched out his hand, fished Conan in, and covered his mouth.
It was already night and the environment was very dark.
The other three children didn't notice anything unusual and foolishly followed Conan in.
Then one by one they were ambushed and captured.
Conan stared at this scene with a pale face.
Those who will hide at the end of the treasure must be the group of robbers.
Unexpectedly, the robbers had already targeted them.
Conan gritted his teeth and looked at the culprits in front of him. According to the usual practice, the "robbers" should let out a burst of laughter at this time, then take out the pistol, click the gun, point it at their heads, and ask them where the treasure is... …
Sure enough, the next second, Conan saw the man in the suit who caught him showing a sinister expression with a smile on his face.
The big man put his rough hands into his pocket and took out...
A police card.
"Children." The police officer tried his best to smile at the naughty children with dark circles under his eyes from working overtime, "Don't be afraid, we are the police."
Conan: "...?"
He looked carefully and felt that the police card was genuine.
When his eyes adjusted to the darkness, Conan discovered that these people were indeed police officers - the one holding Ayumi behind him turned out to be a police officer whom he had met several times, Wataru Takagi.
Conan touched the cold sweat that had just shed and was extremely confused: "Why do you..."
"Shh-" Sato Miwako emerged from the shadows and made a silent gesture towards them.
She asked the four children to be led to the side.
Then he continued to squat at the door, ambush the robbers who might follow the child into the building based on the information provided by "Anonymous".
The three robbers came as expected.
Although they are tall and powerful, and each has a gun, their force value is ridiculously low.
Sato kicked two of them away. Even Takagi knocked down the other one without much effort.
The robber was defeated instantly and was handcuffed and escorted to the police station.
Sato breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to the four children and planned to take them back to the police station.
But the children refused to follow her.
Among them, the little boy wearing glasses made an even more shocking statement: "The stolen fifteen thousand gold coins should be hidden here!"
Sato looked a little surprised.
However, Conan felt that judging from the degree of surprise, she was not surprised because there was a treasure on the roof, but was confused about why the children knew this.
Sato bent down and touched the heads of the naughty children: "Thank you for the information, but the gold coins are no longer here. Come back to the police station with us first, and we will talk about other things later."
——After the police received the anonymous call, because the location described by the other party was very clear and the matter was related to an internationally wanted criminal, they rushed to the building as soon as possible and searched inside and outside.
But the police failed to find the stolen gold coins. They only found a few discarded empty bags on the top floor.
…
Sato led four confused naughty children back to the police station. The criminals from the robbery gang were taken to the other side.
The treatment on both sides was completely different. The children sat in a spacious and comfortable office and were fed biscuits and hot tea.
But Conan was not in the mood to eat cookies. He was more concerned about why the police were ambushing the building and knew that the gangsters were following them.
This question was quickly answered.
Takagi held a notebook and asked several children: "By the way, have you ever seen a person who calls himself 'Anonymous'?"
Now that the robbers have been caught, the stolen goods are missing. In this regard, Anonymous is very suspicious.
"No." Conan pondered Takagi's words and gradually understood, "Did 'Anonymous' tell you that the robbers would go to Onizakura Building? And that person mentioned us?"
Takagi glanced at him in surprise.
Originally, he was worried that the child would have a bad memory. Unexpectedly, he only asked one question and the child figured out the cause and effect.
...No, if you think about it carefully, it may be because these children have been exposed to Anonymous, so they immediately think of her!
Takagi felt refreshed and felt that he would gain a lot.
He took the voice recorder and played an anonymous alarm recording to the children:
"It's a sound like this, have you heard it before?"
However, unlike what Takagi thought, all four children shook their heads.
The voice in the recording is very nice, and has an indescribable rhythm. After listening to it too much, it even feels like being hypnotized, and it is very recognizable.
Conan has a good memory, so he can be sure that he has not heard such a sound in recent years, let alone the past few days.
——He has never seen Anonymous. At least, Anonymous didn't speak to him.
Judging from the police call that Takagi gave them, Conan guessed that Anonymous must know the inside story of the robbery.
He thought that Anonymous might have happened to see the treasure map in the hands of the Youth Detective Team, and made the assumption that "the children were searching for treasure and found the building, and were followed by robbers", and then made the prophetic call to the police.
Thinking of this, Conan suddenly realized that he could use this to determine the scope of Anonymous's actions today.
——Conan has a very strong sense of observation, and he always pays attention to time during the treasure hunt.
He can remember what time he was and roughly where he was.
In other words, by comparing the time Anonymous called the police with the location when he was hunting for treasure, we can determine where and when Anonymous appeared. Then look for nearby surveillance, or ask nearby stores, etc., to find relevant clues.
The more Conan thought about it, the more reliable the idea became.
He pushed up his glasses and asked eagerly: "What time did she call the police?"
"This...wait a moment."
Takagi glanced at the information and quickly replied: "Yesterday morning at 9:17."
The fighting spirit in Conan's eyes flickered and froze.
He stayed for two seconds, suspecting that he heard wrongly: "Yesterday??"
