"Mr. Kudo, did you find anything?" the eldest son Xiao Inu Yasunari asked.
Before Kuroba Kaito could speak, the servants in the castle had already begun to exclaim:
"Hey, why does he look so familiar? Could it be...he is the famous high school detective..."
"Yes, that's him. I've seen his picture in the newspaper."
"Well, I heard that he has solved a lot of cases that even the police can't solve!"
"But why is he here?"
"It is said that they are friends of the second young master. I saw them coming in together before..."
In the midst of everyone's discussion, Kuroba Kaito coughed dryly and said in a very magnetic voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet for a moment."
The discussion stopped for a moment.
In the field, except for Ye Gengyi, everyone's eyes fell on Kuroba Kaito.
The latter was very accustomed to being watched by everyone, and there was no trace of nervousness in his expression. Instead, he looked back one by one.
Everyone who was looked at by Kuroba Kaito unconsciously felt a guilty conscience.
(눈_눈)...Very good, you are quite sensible and did not just take out the playing cards and perform magic tricks.
Ye Gengyi looked at everyone's expressions. Although he was also curious as to why they were intimidated by a high school student, he was relieved when he thought that this was the world of 'Ke Xue'.
"Hmm..." After looking around, Kuroba Kaito paused, then raised his chin with his hand as if out of habit, and made a sound of thinking like a long test.
No one in the room dared to ask questions, and the scene fell into an eerie silence.
Ye Gengyi knew that this guy's silence was definitely not reasoning. It was enough to be able to perform to this extent with Kudo Shinichi's vest.
"A first-class detective can peel off the cocoons based on the clues left at the scene to find the truth." Ye Gengyi slowly said, "I hope that Young Master Dog can cooperate with us. Let people leave the room first but not leave the castle, and then notify police."
Kuroba Kaito's lips twitched, and he instinctively wanted to stop him, "Just don't call the police..."
"Ah?!" Xiaoquan Huibian looked happy and said quickly, "Why, do you know where the master is?"
"No...actually..." Kuroba Kaito's expression froze.
Oops... I almost forgot that I am Kudo Shinichi now.
"Madam, how could you have such an idea?" Ye Gengyi frowned slightly, but as he spoke, he faced the two young masters of the Xiaoquan family and said: "The disappearance of your master is too unbelievable. Kudo doesn’t mean not to call the police, but he is worried that this incident will attract the media. I think you two also know the consequences of that.”
"Thank you, Mr. Watson!" The puppy Taicheng was a little surprised when he first heard that Kuroba Kaito blocked the alarm, but he felt relieved until then.
The party to announce the heir has not yet begun, but the master has disappeared. What is this? This is a scandal!
They are not preventing you from calling the police, but they are worried that your family's "scandal" will be spread!
It's just that smart people don't like to speak clearly, and we don't understand it, so Mr. Watson explained the deep meaning of other people's words to himself.
I just happened to give someone a ride, and I got all-round help from them. Even the two outsiders knew that they took care of the reputation of Xiaoquan's family. Looking at my stupid stepmother, I'm afraid she only wants to fight for the inheritance!
No wonder he is a well-known detective! The ideological realm of both parties is not at the same level at all!
The brains of the two young masters of the Xiaoquan family were working rapidly, and their thoughts began to gradually change.
Originally, Ye Gengyi's plan was to speed up the pace of the case.
Through the lubricant of the police, psychological pressure is added to the people behind the scenes, so that event cards can be quickly drawn out, the case can be closed, and people can leave.
His identity is equally sensitive. Even though he disguised himself in disguise, Ye Gengyi cannot disappear for a long time.
As for the follow-up process, with Kudo Shinichi's presence, the two police officers didn't even have to take notes.
At that time, all we have to do is let Kaito say that very classic sentence: Sorry, officer, please help me hide my involvement in the case. Because of work reasons, I don't want to increase my enemies... That's it.
However, in order not to damage Kudo Shinichi's image in their minds and hinder subsequent reasoning, Ye Geng just took care of himself and took the blame for his ill-considered decision.
Of course, Ye Gengyi could not predict in advance that the two young masters of Xiaoquan's family would be so disgusted with Xiaoquan Huibian.
"Brother, I'm so sorry." After there were only two people left in the room, Kuroba Kaito clasped his hands together, "I just subconsciously..."
"The cooperation is not tacit enough. Please pay attention next time if it makes sense." Ye Gengyi said.
"Uh...next time?" A certain thief seized this moment and asked, "Next time?"
"We'll talk about the future later." Ye Geng put on his gloves and walked around the little dog's bed, thinking in his mind.
He has basically figured out the triggering mechanism of the event card. After touching the core point, generally speaking, as long as you are a member of the entrusted party and the other party's request is sincere, the event card will be triggered.
And now, he is pretending to be John Watson, and his identity is Kudo Shinichi's assistant, who belongs to the same camp, and the master of the Inu family is missing. Even if there are several young men in the family, it is impossible for them all to hope that the missing person will be found. Mr. Puppy.
From this analysis, it can be concluded that the key point of this incident is not why the master disappeared, but what may happen after the disappearance...
"Interesting," Ye Gengyi thought about the sense of disobedience after coming to this castle, and made a bold assumption, "Maybe the little dog master hid it himself."
"ah?"
Kuroba Kaito glanced at Ye Gengyi's face, a little confused. Hearing what his brother meant, had he found a clue?
Just the bed in front of me?
Why didn't I see anything?
"Old...Brother...can you give me some tips?" He also wanted to feel a little involved.
"Well, no matter how bizarre the disappearance is, it is nothing more than a secret passage or an artificial deception," Ye Gengyi reminded: "What we have to do now is to find out why the little dog master wants to transform the castle into an aquarium. ..”
"What are you doing?"
Noticing that a certain phantom thief was looking through the quilt on the bed while he was explaining, Ye Gengyi naturally took two steps back.
"Ah, I was wondering if the mechanism that makes people disappear is on the bed..."
Kuroba Kaito looked serious. It seemed that in order to make up for his previous mistakes, he even sniffed slightly and concluded: "It seems to be the smell of sea water..."
Ye Gengyi's fish-eyes turned around: "It's not just seawater. If you smell it carefully, you should still be able to smell the smell of seafood."
"Huh?" Kuroba Kaito was surprised, "Brother, it's amazing, you can be so far away..."
"No, I saw it." Ye Gengyi said.
"See...see? How do you see it..." Kuroba Kaito blinked, preparing to steal his lesson.
If I had this skill, wouldn't I be able to avoid those nasty fish in advance in the future?
Because it needed to be investigated, every item in the room was not taken out. Ye Gengyi pointed to a pot-shaped object beside the bed and said:
"Oh... when I just came in, I saw a servant accidentally spilling the liquid in it on the bed..."
