"..."
Hui Yuan Ai was silent for a while, then coughed slightly and said, "Ahem, but... only by surpassing him in reasoning can he feel defeated, right?"
Not necessarily, that kid is very forgetful...
Ye Geng slandered without expressing his opinion directly: "It depends on the situation. I'll go to 5-chome first and send it to me when you get to the address."
"Oh, I see."
Haibara Ai agreed and hung up the phone quickly when she heard the sound of Conan and three children talking outside the door.
"What are you doing standing at the table, huh? Where is Haiyuan..." Conan was about to walk over.
At this time, Hui Yuan Ai opened the bathroom door:
"You're looking for me?"
"oh……"
Conan said: "I have sent an email to tell Sister Xiaolan that she may come back later tonight. You can also call or send an email to tell your family. If there is no problem, we will set off."
"Oh! No need to go to so much trouble," Genta urged: "Let's go to that warehouse now!"
"Yeah, yeah, hurry up and settle the matter in two or two!" Ayumi said.
"That's right!" Mitsuhiko nodded in agreement: "There is no mystery that our young detective team cannot solve!"
"You are very motivated this time..." Conan looked at the three of them strangely.
Hui Yuan Ai also looked suspicious.
She remembered that during the time when the children went to the Mori Detective Agency after school, the children had been pinning their hopes on Edogawa to unlock the monster warehouse. She just went to the bathroom, so why did her attitude change 180 degrees? A big reversal?
"Ah? Can you tell?" Ayumi covered her mouth and snickered.
Mitsuhiko and Genta said in unison: "In short, we are definitely very different today than usual!"
"You guys, don't be too motivated and overly impulsive..." Haiyuan Ai couldn't help but remind her.
She secretly called Saraichi over, mainly to teach Edogawa a lesson. She didn't care if the children were beaten for being too active.
…
Office, under the desk.
Hattori Heiji was hiding in the leg space. Hearing the sound of the door closing, he pushed open the chair and got out.
"Hehe... Kudo, let's start our battle from now on."
He muttered silently to himself.
When he came to the window, he looked down and confirmed that the five of them were gone, and hurriedly chased them out.
What he didn't notice was that a pair of emotionless eyes were locked on him on the sidewalk across the street.
Hattori Heiji?
This guy Bourbon... probably hasn't healed from the injury on his face last time, so this time he chose someone with dark skin and whose skin features are not easily exposed for disguise.
I didn't expect to be so impatient.
Although it’s not clear what he investigated this time...but it turned out that the five of them were being followed in that direction...
Ye Gengyi did not consider the probability of his identity for the time being.
After all, today is not a day off. Hattori Heiji is just a second-year high school student. If there is something urgent and he needs to take time off to discuss with the little detective, he won't be sneaking behind him now.
Hattori Heiji didn't know yet that he was being watched. While walking, he was distractedly editing emails on his mobile phone, asking the three children not to forget to take photos of the surrounding scenery and send them after they arrived at the warehouse.
Treasures and figures suddenly appear and disappear.
Excluding the possibility of dazzling witnesses, according to normal logical reasoning, there is a high probability that there is a mechanism in the warehouse.
And, if it’s not the floor, it’s the ceiling.
[After entering the warehouse, place any item you carry with you on the floor and in the corner, and then draw a dotted line with a pencil to fix it. 】
After typing the last punctuation mark, press the send key.
Hattori Heiji happened to walk to the alley.
Without realizing it at all, a pair of strong arms suddenly stretched out, wrapped around the back of his neck, and pulled him in.
Well……
Before he could react, he got a knee in the stomach.
The double pressure from his throat and body made Hattori Heiji feel a strong sense of suffocation.
Ye Gengyi didn't give the opponent a chance to breathe, twisted his body and punched straight.
Hattori Heiji only had time to subconsciously raise his arms to protect his head, but failed to protect his chest from the heavy blow.
If it weren't for the years of kendo practice that made his body much better than ordinary people, he would have fainted by now.
but……
Kendo, kendo, I don’t have a sword in my hand!
Sure enough, this guy's injury hasn't healed yet... Ye Geng reached out his hand, grabbed Hattori Heiji's hair and pushed it down, and grabbed his face with the other hand, preparing to receive an elbow blow to make this guy completely faint. After that, make other plans.
However, the feel of it against the skin.
Ye Gengyi was keenly aware that something was wrong.
The elbow immediately changed from smashing to pressing.
He turned around and threw the person over his shoulder, throwing him to the ground.
"Uh...ouch..."
Hattori Heiji groaned in pain.
Ye Gengyi, who had activated the makeover card and disguised himself as a treasure hunter, crouched down like a robber under the pretense of rummaging through his wallet, and pinched Hattori Heiji's face a few times while it was dark.
It's real leather...
Ahem...is it so embarrassing?
He looked at Osaka Black Chicken who was lying on the ground and had been beaten for no reason.
Ye Gengyi pushed up the flat mirror on the bridge of his nose and said the preset lines:
"I'm a little short of money recently... I guess you're out of luck."
With that said, he took the money away and threw the wallet back to Hattori Heiji.
These detectives may have a habit of taking down serial numbers when they have nothing to do, so these banknotes still need to be disposed of...
Ye Gengyi was not careless at all, turned around and left the alley without saying any more words.
…
On the other side, in the 5th-chome 'Yōkai Warehouse'.
The three children of the Junior Detective Corps, following the method provided by Hattori Heiji, marked the four sides of the detective armband and placed it in the warehouse.
Because there is no lighting equipment in the warehouse.
After confirming with the five of them, the owner of the house indicated that they could play freely in the yard. However, in order to prevent the children from deliberately locking their friends in the yard, he locked the door of the warehouse before leaving.
"What, it's just a very ordinary warehouse." Yuantai whispered.
"Is it related to time?" Ayumi guessed.
"That makes sense," Mitsuhiko's eyes lit up: "After all, Takuma-san saw the treasure after the sun had set."
"There's no need to wait that long, I might as well go up and confirm it now."
Conan was so curious that he rolled up his sleeves and climbed up the tree as he spoke.
Upon seeing this, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Genta immediately took out their mobile phones to take pictures and sent the latest situation here to Hattori Heiji via email.
However……
The reply instructing them on their next move has yet to come.
Three little heads, you look at me, I look at you, I haven’t figured out what to do next.
Just hear a plop.
Conan jumped down from the tree quite impulsively.
Because it was too sudden, his legs were numb from the shock, and he could only shout to a few people:
"Quick! Go find the owner of the house quickly and ask him to open the warehouse door!"
