"Very embarrassed? Still can't do it?"
Here, Ye Gengyi looked at Conan and Haibara Ai, and continued to create psychological pressure, "It doesn't matter, what about the other way around... It's your turn to use the knife to scratch this brown-haired little girl."
He paused, raised his gun again and aimed at the three little heads of the Young Detective Team, and said in a mocking tone:
"Countdown to 10 seconds."
What to do, what to do... Conan's brain was racing.
Hard fight?
No... The other party has a gun in his hand. If the target is me, there may be a chance to fight to the death, but his observation is too keen, and he actually aims directly at Ayumi. Even if I yell for them from this distance Jumping into the waterfall to hide, there is no guarantee that they will not be shot in the process...
Lobbying?
No way... Although this person looks polite, judging from his behavior, it is absolutely impossible for him to give me this time.
hateful!
There seemed to be no other way but to listen to him.
Conan sadly discovered that when the doctor's props could not be used and there were no variables that could break the situation, the wisdom he had always relied on could not save his partners from the opponent's gunpoint.
"9...8...7...6..."
The countdown was like a real bell, constantly hitting Conan's heart. It was completely different from the prisoners he had encountered before. This kind of pressure without any gaps made him feel an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.
There are 5 seconds left in the countdown.
Ye Gengyi's voice suddenly came from Kuroba Kaito's hidden earphones:
"It's your turn to take action. Tell them clearly about the gems and mechanisms. I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain."
Oh oh...so that's it.
A certain phantom thief who was fascinated by the show understood, and without hesitation, he took out his poker gun, aimed there and pulled the trigger.
Ye Gengyi seemed to be startled and had no time to dodge. The pistol was hit by the flying playing cards and then fell to the ground beside him.
"K-Katai Kidd?!"
Conan instantly showed an expression of ecstasy, as if he was surviving a disaster.
The expressions of Haihara Ai and the three young detectives were also relaxed.
"Hehehe..."
Kuroba Kaito tore off his old disguise with a wave of his hand, put on the moon-white dress, and smiled softly:
"Taking a gun at a child is not the behavior of a gentleman."
(?_?)...You can just open your mouth to say this kind of line.
Ye Gengyi made a symbolic sound, turned around and ran away.
Hey, hey, brother, didn't you prepare any other lines... Just say, 'You are worthy of being a magician under the moonlight' or something before leaving.
Kuroba Kaito looked at someone's figure quickly disappearing into the forest with helplessness on his face.
"Hey, thank you so much this time."
Here, Conan sincerely expressed his gratitude.
"Including the time in Fantasy Park, I saved your life twice, detective."
Kuroba Kaito turned his head and looked at Conan for a few times, and chuckled: "Why do you always get into such a mess? Speaking of which, if you were willing to obey me when you were underground, maybe you wouldn't have encountered what just happened. ”
"I was careless..."
Speaking of this, Conan was also a little annoyed, "I didn't expect that person to be crazy."
Hey, what's that... I probably didn't hear it, otherwise I might just turn around and come back to kill you...
Kuroba Kaito thought and turned his head to look into the forest.
Conan was attracted by this action, and after subconsciously shuddering, he changed the topic with some embarrassment and said:
"That... gem must not have been stolen by you yet."
"oh?"
Kuroba Kaito's interest was aroused, and he adjusted his stance to wait for the other party's next words.
"You tried every possible means to persuade us to leave, and then left a card next to the waterfall. In fact, it is probably because of the saying in the stone lantern, 'Knowing the eternal principles and hearts.'"
Conan lamented:
"Diamonds have been the hardest thing since ancient times, so they are called adamas, which means unconquerable things. The so-called 'knowing the eternal principles and hearts' means that they can never be stolen. I think it should be Sansui Kichiemon There must be some dangerous trap set up near the gem. This is indeed very similar to what a trap master would do if he was a member of the Sasaku sect and ignored the confiscation of his property by the shogunate after the fall of the shogunate. "
"Yes, to tell you the truth, once that gem is taken away, everyone here will probably be washed down to the bottom of the valley by the flood." Kuroba Kaito said.
Flood?
"I see……"
Conan thought of the dirt near the mechanism house and the water flow seen in the underground road. "You had already triggered the mechanism once before we came here. You stayed here because you were worried that we would make the same mistake again, right?"
"Yes, but..."
Kuroba Kaito paused and said with a smile: "The main reason why I didn't steal it was because it was not the gem I wanted, and if I didn't stay, even if you were not washed away by the flood, I'm afraid you would have to Got played to death by that treasure hunter."
"Huh, you are such a kind-hearted thief. Thanks to you and Edogawa, we don't have to stab each other." Haibara Ai regained her usual calmness and hid her emotions well in her ice-blue eyes. middle.
He is really an arrogant kid. His personality is not very similar to that of his sister. Hmm... Could it be that he was infected by his elder brother?
After Kuroba Kaito cursed, he said with a smile:
"If that man hadn't threatened you two little ladies with a gun, I would have been looking forward to seeing a famous detective cornered."
Uh...can we not pick up the pot and not pick up the pot...Conan's face was dark.
The watch-type anesthesia gun malfunctioned, and he misjudged the situation without fully understanding the young man's character. He tried to confuse the other party by pretending to be a child, but he was severely punished.
If Kaito Kidd hadn't been among the team, the consequences would have been disastrous.
It's time to reflect... Conan took a deep breath.
"What now? What are you going to do with these two people?" Kuroba Kaito pointed at the two treasure hunters lying on the ground and said, "By the way, don't expect me to stay with you to wait for the police and the ambulance. .”
"That's no need," Conan took a deep breath and said worriedly, "I just hope that the doctor can be safe."
"What's wrong?" Kuroba Kaito was curious.
Conan glanced at the trio of young detectives who were still in shock. He lowered his voice and repeated exactly what Ye Gengyi said before he knocked himself unconscious in the tunnel.
Kill Dr. A Li?
Kuroba Kaito was silent: "..."
emmm...well, I don't blame Kudo Shinichi for thinking too much. After all, I don't need any psychological preparation to play a bad guy, but I have to be more restrained.
