On the mountain road.
Several detectives talked to each other and figured out the general context of this incident.
At the same time, they also formulated a plan to satisfy their evil desires...in other words, to experience 'killing with their own hands'.
Of course, the latter part was what Ye Gengyi thought after observing the expressions of several people.
"33 minutes and 18 seconds..."
As soon as he returned to the door of the annex, the white horse detective took out his pocket watch again and told such a time.
It's ironic to think about it. Sometimes so-called similar people, in addition to being able to resonate with oneself, can also produce inexplicable feelings of resistance.
Of course, this kind of resistance is not entirely malicious. More often, it is just a kind of unhappiness.
For example, a certain detective is always unhappy with people who are better at pretending than him.
Ye Gengyi couldn't help it, because most of the time he couldn't keep up with the opponent's thinking, but the intention of this white-horse detective was quite obvious...
"Oh...I see," Conan said in a voice that sounded malicious and cute: "Brother Baima must have calculated the time it took for us to walk back...right."
"Little brother, you are very smart..."
Baima Tan was startled and didn't hide it:
"Since Detective Qianjian escaped by feigning death, she will definitely find a way to return to this annex. Now let's briefly analyze the time period when she may return. At that time... we can start performing in front of the surveillance in the building. ”
Conan asked: "Then your estimated time is..."
"One o'clock in the morning, no later than three o'clock at most."
Detective Baima is very sure:
"What happened in the annex, and Mr. Ye has a satellite phone, Detective Qianjian can definitely tell that we won't sleep tonight, but as a detective, she should also know that fighting fatigue will not do us any good. Its usefulness...because the method of stimulating generals is most effective when the opponent is in high spirits, isn't it?"
"That's right."
Gunda Ikumi took over the topic and further explained:
"Actually, many people have a misunderstanding, and that is the time when attention is slack. However, as detectives, we have all tried it. As long as we survive the sleepiness at midnight, our brains will wake up again. Otherwise. ..Although it is still unclear what the elder sister’s purpose is, there is no doubt that calling the police is the last thing she wants to see.”
"So that's it. Big sister, you are so awesome!" Conan's technique of using other people's words to tell inferences can be said to be very consummate.
childish...
Ye Gengyi was not referring to Conan, but to everyone present who agreed with this plan.
In terms of treasure hunting, with the funds provided by Gin, he no longer cares much. As for Senjian Yudai, who pretended to be Kaito and invited everyone... If he had to tell the police to search the mountain directly, it would save a lot of trouble. .
"But... Conan, are you really able to do that?" Gunda Ikumi accepted the praise and chuckled, "If we are all 'dead' by then, you will have to face her alone."
"Well! Don't worry," Conan nodded vigorously, "it will be fine."
"In this case, let's take out that thing." Motegi Harushi said, taking out the pistol first, "You all found it under the pillow in the room, right?"
"Actually, I was just about to remind everyone." Bai Ma Tan shrugged and took out a pistol: "It seems there is nothing new. This one was also found under the pillow."
"Humph..." Gunda Yumi smiled, "It seems that I am the only one with this pistol, and it is kept in the drawer of the dresser."
After saying that, the three of them looked at Ye Gengyi and Kuroba Kaito.
"Eh? Gengyi, do we also have this in our room?" Kuroba Kaito was startled.
"No." Ye Gengyi said.
Motegi Harushi said: "Hey, at this time, there is no need to hide it."
Ye Gengyi ignored him and looked at a certain detective: "Question, kid, are there pistols in your and Xiaolan's room?"
Conan hesitated for a moment: "If it was placed under the pillow or in such a conspicuous place as the dresser drawer, I really didn't see it..."
"This is strange." Hearing Conan say the same thing, the three detectives fell into deep thought.
"No, I think I know the reason." Ye Gengyi said: "If Detective Qianjian has done the investigation, he should know how terrifying Mr. Maoli's shooting skills are. Suppose he starts killing people frantically, then you can only Wait until the group is destroyed."
Three armed detectives: "..."
(¬_¬) Stare...
Kuroba Kaito disguised as Mouri Kogoro: "..."
Just... panicked.
...
After briefly discussing the details, everyone walked into the dusk villa full of cameras again.
Among the rooms on the second floor.
Kuroba Kaito froze in his search for the pistol, turned his head, and saw Ye Gengyi looking at him without saying a word.
"...Brother?" Kuroba Kaito blinked.
Could it be that I called the other party 'Zhang Yi' too many times today, so I got angry?
It shouldn't be... right?
"You've been exposed." Ye Gengyi said.
"Ah?!" Kuroba Kaito was stunned.
Does the topic have to be so exciting at the beginning?
Ye Gengyi explained: "In normal times, Mr. Mao Li would have beaten him up if that brat Conan was acting so mischievously."
"Uh... why don't you be so violent?" Kuroba Kaito sweated, "If it's just because of this..."
Ye Gengyi interrupted: "Also, you haven't smoked since the beginning of the gas station."
Kuroba Kaito: "I forgot because I was nervous?"
Ye Gengyi: "..."
(눈_눈)...
"Okay, okay..." A certain monster thief made a surrender gesture, "I was careless, but this can also be done after seeing the trick of potassium cyanate, so you can take precautions, right?"
"Then how do you explain that you didn't drink?" Ye Geng said: "Before the death of Zhu Shan, Mr. Mao Li, one of the purposes of coming to the annex was to have a drink."
"this..."
Kuroba Kaito was speechless.
Smoking, drinking, sharpshooter?
Emmm... The character design is so complicated. It seems that I won’t pretend to be this uncle next time.
"Although a lot of details have been exposed, Detective Hakuba and Ikumi Gunada, who don't know much about Detective Mori, probably didn't find out..."
Ye Gengyi paused for a moment after saying this: "However, that little detective Conan must have noticed what I just said. As for why he didn't expose it, maybe he wanted to make you relax your vigilance, and then arrest the suspected thief together."
"Uh...please wait..."
Kuroba Kaito raised his hand and asked, "What about you, brother? You have been in contact with me for so long. If he finds out that you are hiding something..."
"Mr. Mao Li and I don't live together, so it's normal not to discover these details," Ye Geng said: "Furthermore, there is no evidence in itself when looking for clues. If the primary school student asks me, just ignore him. good."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
...What a hard-core perfunctory way.
"Wait a moment..."
A certain phantom thief suddenly had a bad feeling, "So...brother, since the risk of me being exposed is not high, and what you mean by saying so much..."
"I'll give you the cell phone." Ye Gengyi said, "Imitate Detective White Horse's voice and call the Metropolitan Police Department... Oh, don't forget to scream."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
He just knew it.
but...
"Why do you want me to come? You and the doctor invented the little detective's voice changer, right?" Kuroba Kaito was confused.
"You can't use it even if you have it. First of all, I can't be exposed. Secondly, the only person who can call is Kaitou Kidd. Just treat it like you stole my phone, and then you can find an opportunity when everyone is around and return it to me." Ye Gengyi said.
"..."
Kuroba Kaito: "I won't do it..."
