Conan looked at the corpse on the ground with a solemn expression.
The temperature of the water pool is about 20 degrees, but the body of the deceased has not yet produced flatulence, indicating that the person was killed not long ago.
Combining the clues about the suspected diamond in the stone lantern, he immediately asked the doctor to return to the beetle car at the foot of the mountain, and use the antenna installed on the roof of the car to contact the police as soon as possible to report the case.
Maybe the murderer isn't far away yet.
...Is it an illusion? I always feel like someone is peeking at us.
Conan couldn't tell for a while whether the source of this pressure was the organization or the corpse in front of him.
He took a deep breath, reminded himself that now was not the time to think about this, and then said, "Okay, let's go back to the tent first."
"Eh? What..."
"Go back now?"
"Aren't you going to decipher the code inside the stone lantern?"
Obviously, the three little heads, who have experienced some "big scenes" personally, all have their own ideas.
It seems that the decision made by Conan is so incredible.
"Idiot! Maybe the murderer of this man is still nearby!"
Conan pointed at the corpse and shouted sternly, "Do you also want to be killed?"
In the agency room, a certain thief who was hiding in the shadow by the window and keeping a look of watching the development of the situation lowered his voice:
"...Hey, brother, did you hear that Kudo Shinichi didn't plan to come in? He changed his gender today, right?"
"The gem you want to steal is in the vault in front of you. Will you give up?" Ye Geng asked.
"Of course not." Kuroba Kaito answered without hesitation.
"He is too." Ye Geng said: "Speaking of this paranoid attitude towards certain things, it is quite similar to yours."
"Brother, you shouldn't be too generous when it comes to scientific research." Kuroba Kaito reminded someone not to forget to include himself when classifying someone.
"Maybe none of us are normal, but it's not that important..."
Ye Geng paused and said: "I'll go around the area first to check if the treasure hunters have any other backup plans. The connection range of wireless earphones is not that far. The earphones you are using are separated from the middle. You can see a red button at the end. Press and hold it for five seconds to enter the overclocking mode. It can connect to satellite signals and have a conversation with me for about ten seconds. Remember not to put it back in your ears. The device will heat up at that time, and then the panel and chip will It will also burn out, so... don’t use it unless there is an emergency.”
"Don't worry, I don't think I can use this function." Kuroba Kaito said.
"Oh, that's good." After Ye Geng finished speaking, he immediately cut off the communication.
Kuroba Kaito shrugged and whispered, "What a cold-faced old man who loves to worry."
Then, he once again focused his attention on the conversation between the little heads outside the window.
Sure enough, things developed as Ye Gengyi expected.
Conan was not very willing to drive everyone back to the camp.
Especially when Haihara Ai also started touching the corpse and successfully found the notepad in the deceased's pocket.
"He seems to be a treasure hunter. His notebook records many treasures and corresponding maps that are spread across Japan. The reason why he came here is because he found clues about Sansui Kichiemon... It also says In order to get this gem, he specially found a very powerful companion..."
companion?
Conan's attention was attracted and he subconsciously asked: "Did it say who that companion was?"
"No," Hui Yuan Ai shook his head, "However, he did write down the reasons why he wanted to find gems. You see..."
"In order to lure out that bumbling thief and resolve the grudges from more than ten years ago?"
Conan muttered this passage several times and said silently to himself:
The gem, the bumbling thief, it should be Kaitou Kidd, right?
Strange... this is somewhat inconsistent with the information I have. Kaitou Kid is obviously a high school student who looks very similar to his big Kudo Shinichi, and should be about the same age.
The grudges from more than ten years ago?
Not only did Conan fail to fully understand the situation, but even the person involved, Kuroba Kaito, looked confused.
This person doesn't know how to write clearly when taking notes. What does it mean to be a bumbling thief? This way of pronouncing is obviously mixed with a lot of personal grudges, right?
Could it be a competitor that his father met during his 'activities' back then?
Hmm... Although the Phantom Thief and the Treasure Hunter can't be considered colleagues, they do occasionally have conflicts in business.
But there is no point in worrying about this when everyone is already dead.
I'll find a chance to get that notebook later, and I'll know if there is any other useful information recorded in it.
Kuroba Kaito revised his action plan.
Conan, on his side, also showed a faint expression of excitement because Kaito Kidd might be involved in this case.
The few people discussed for a while, and after Conan slowly explained the code left in the stone lantern and the fact that the bumbling thief was probably Kaitou Kidd, dark clouds finally appeared in the sky. Assists sent.
Seeing that it started to rain, he took advantage of the situation and made the decision to go inside to take shelter from the rain.
"However, this old house feels so uncomfortable," Genta muttered, "Are there really diamonds in it?"
"If it hadn't been taken away..."
Conan noticed that on the outside of the wall, there was a circle of moist soil that seemed to have been washed away by water. Thinking that the owner of this old wooden house was the former machine master Sansui Kichiemon, he couldn't help but ask vigilantly:
"Haiyuan, is there anything else written in that notebook?"
"There should be a lot more content," Haihara Ai said, "but the ones at the back are soaked by water and need to dry before you can turn the pages. Otherwise, if you accidentally break it, you won't be able to see anything."
"How long will it take to wait?"
Yuantai impulsively pushed open the door and looked at the dark interior, his momentum instantly weakened.
Just when he was about to give in and temporarily hand over the position of captain of the Young Detective Team to Conan, his eyes that were gradually adapting to the darkness saw the stairs directly in front of him:
"I understand!"
As Gentai spoke, he turned on the watch-shaped flashlight and walked over there, "Nioh's residence is close to the sun, so the diamond should be hidden in the highest place of the house. Only the roof is closest to the sun!"
"Yantai, don't break in casually! This is a house built by the master of traps!"
Conan had no time to stop him, so he reminded him in a hurry but it was still a step too late.
I heard the sound of gears that seemed to be embedded under the floor. In just a blink of an eye, I ran to the stairs excitedly. The naughty child who had just stepped onto the first step with his left foot was like a broken wire. Like a kite, it fell feebly towards the opened hole.
