"Temporary power outage."
Suzuki Jiroyoshi took out a walkie-talkie to direct the staff outside the room.
Ye Gengyi carried a camera to record this scene.
At the same time, Nakamori Ginzo, who was looking to the side, noticed that before the other party distributed the four keys to several mobile team members, he held the key handle and turned it a few times in his hand, as if he was applying something.
The movements are very subtle.
It is precisely because of this concealment that it highlights his unusualness.
what is that……
Ye Gengyi was temporarily unable to make an effective judgment.
Immediately, he came to Suzuki Jirokichi and asked: "Consultant Suzuki, can I take a close-up shot?"
Within the scope of his control, he tried not to interfere with a certain Kaitou boy who had a "showmania", but the premise of all this was that he had to obtain enough information without attracting attention.
"Oh, of course, no problem. Remember to take pictures clearly. I want to completely record the process of arresting the thief in my autobiography! Hahaha..."
Suzuki Jiroji laughed heartily and selectively forgot the previous N failures.
Already stunned... Ye Gengyi carried the camera and walked towards the position near the four pedestals.
Beep, beep, beep, beep.
At this time, four prompt sounds at uniform intervals sounded in the room.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Several children from the Junior Detective Team looked around suspiciously.
Nakamori Ginzo explained in detail:
"It's the sound of the current in the base being cut off. Every time it sounds, the current will be cut off in the order of green, red, white and black."
He finished speaking quickly, and when he noticed Conan, who had gone to watch the pedestal before, came over, he immediately raised his voice and shouted:
"Attention! Countdown is 3 seconds..."
"3..."
"2……"
"1!"
The mobile team members holding four keys respectively heard the password and inserted the keys into the four pedestals and turned them.
Rumble.
The house began to tremble and make a dull sound.
Only for a moment.
The pillar in the center of the room cracked about 1.7 meters from bottom to top, revealing a bronze statue of a unicorn. The tawny gemstone inlaid on top of its head was called a unicorn from the shape. horn of amber.
Do they need to be rotated at the same time? Well... the countdown slogan, even if there is an error, should not be more than 1 second.
Kaito obviously couldn't do it alone.
So...there should be other ways to open this mechanism. No signal or timing device was detected under the floor...Ye Gengdai thought about it.
If it were him, he would definitely play tricks on the mechanism linkage under the floor in case of emergency.
"Hey! Go, go, don't let anyone get too close to the gem!"
Nakamori Ginzo appeared in the camera screen, made a driving gesture towards the camera, and then shouted to the mobile team:
"Okay, close it quickly."
This kid...
Judging from various signs, Ye Gengyi is more than 90% sure that the Nakamori Ginzo in front of him is Kuroba Kaito in disguise.
However, he did not exchange signals with the other party, and instead pointed the camera lens at a certain detective boy:
"Kid, what are you looking at?"
"There are words here..."
Conan stepped aside, revealing a text carved under the pillar:
[Those who do not follow the right path and desire Kirin must devote themselves to the transmission of transmission - Sansui Kichiemon. 】
He looked at Suzuki Jirokichi:
"Do you know what this means?"
"Haha, I don't know, but as long as these four keys are in my hand, the thief will definitely not be able to succeed!"
Suzuki Jirokichi said with a smile: "No matter what, that guy can't transform into four people to open this mechanism!"
"Hey...this old man is really leisurely."
Nakamori Ginzo said with a somewhat unhappy tone: "Suppose there happen to be three of Kaito Kidd's accomplices in this room, then he only needs to plunge the place into darkness and then take away the key to easily steal the gems."
"yes……"
Guided by the words, Haiyuan Ai raised her head and looked at the ceiling, "Lights like this without any protective measures should be extinguished immediately with Kaitou Kid's methods."
The vulnerability is too serious.
She wondered if Suzuki Jirokichi trusted that agency too much?
"Huh, let me see, even the current under those pedestals is not safe. I don't know if my subordinates have been replaced by Kaitou Kidd's associates. Also...the people from these three TV stations are also very suspicious. …”
Kuroba Kaito looked at Nakamori Ginzo's face and showed an annoyed expression: "Damn it, why did you choose to be in such a deep mountain forest? And there are 4 keyholes. If there is only one, I will Just stick to it!"
His words immediately made the eyes of the three children, who were eager to do something big, brighten up.
The three people said one after another:
"Then let us help you protect the gem!"
"No matter how powerful Kaitou Kidd is, he can't pretend to be a child!"
"Yes, yes, we are the most reliable candidates!"
"If we can protect the gems from being stolen by Kaitou Kidd, that situation would be quite good." Haibara Ai said.
When Kuroba Kaito saw this scene, he knew that half of his plan had succeeded, but he still frowned:
"Leave it to you?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Conan who was squatting in front of the pillar, studying the text, and continued:
"Can you really do that? If you touch the pedestal before the current is cut off, you will definitely be electrocuted."
Regardless of his expression or actions, he showed his distrust of the four people around him.
The adults really seemed to only believe in Conan... Mitsuhiko was aroused to be competitive:
"Don't worry, as long as you don't get the order wrong, it'll be fine."
"Then do you still remember the order of power outage?" Kuroba Kaito glanced at Ayumi and Genta.
"Uh, this..." Yuantai really didn't remember.
"It seems green, red..." Ayumi hesitated.
"Every time it rings, the current will be cut off in the order of green, red, white, and black, right?" Haihara Ai said that there is no difficulty in remembering it.
Have you been fooled? Lack of crisis awareness...
Ye Gengyi shook his head calmly.
In his opinion, Kaito was obviously intentionally leading the four of them to accept the job of protecting the gems.
Because of his impatience, he even exposed several flaws that could not withstand scrutiny.
The colors are deliberately emphasized by the sound of electricity... green, red, white, black.
But... the four of them shouldn't be able to perform too complicated operations. The only effect they can have is to touch the pedestal...
so……
The key is not the key. Another way to activate the mechanism is on the four pedestals.
