Meanwhile, on the other side.
After Hui Yuan Ai fell into the secret passage, he accidentally broke the wooden guardrail that had been in disrepair for a long time. Some of the fragments happened to be stuck in the rotating mechanism, making it impossible to open the mirror again.
And she fell from the three-meter-high staircase to the bottom. In panic, before she could mentally prepare her body to hit the concrete floor, the hood of her jumpsuit was grabbed by a hand that came from the side.
Eh?
She looked up and found that it was Ye Gengyi who had disappeared for a while.
At this time, Professor Ye, who had always lacked facial expressions, still looked calm, but there was an obvious questioning look in his eyes.
"what happened?"
Ye Gengyi put her back on the ground.
The moment Hui Yuan Ai was caught, he was still a little dazed. It wasn't until he heard this question that he finally came to his senses and realized his situation.
"Uh... That's the mirror next to the sink in the women's bathroom over there. I accidentally..." Haibara pointed behind him, with a hint of embarrassment on his expression.
Originally, I wanted to help Genichi keep an eye on Edogawa, but I didn't expect that he would be the first to cause problems.
One of the exits is set up in the bathroom, or multiple entrances are set up...
Ye Gengyi had been drawing the topographic map of the secret passage in his mind. He looked up at the top of the three-meter-high staircase. Knowing that behind this entrance was the mirror of the women's bathroom, he omitted the step of exploring it.
"Let's go."
Ye Gengyi naturally took out the watch-shaped flashlight from Haihara Ai's pocket.
The movements were understated, as if taking things from here was a matter of course.
"..."
Forget it, I should have gotten used to it long ago...but...
"I thought I heard Edogawa and Ayumi calling me..."
Haiyuan Ai pointed at the top of the stairs.
"Yeah, I heard that."
Ye Geng said without looking back, "There are still a few places I haven't gone to yet. I want to keep checking. If you want to go back first, you can stay here after I leave."
Haibara Ai:"……"
How can she go back now?
A damaged revolving door cannot be repaired in a short period of time.
Seeing that she didn't move, Ye Geng turned around and looked at her again, "Huh?"
"...Okay." Haihara Ai jogged a few steps to catch up, "I'll go with you."
Because she always felt stupid to stay here and wait alone.
Goals are agreed upon.
Ye Gengyi said no more and continued walking towards the depths of the dark passage with a watch-shaped flashlight.
Haiyuan Ai looked at his back and always had a strange feeling... So, before he accidentally fell into this place, what kind of thing did Brother Geng Yi use for lighting?
Wait a minute, could it be that this Geng Yi brother in front of me...
Some urban legends appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but slow down a bit.
"how?"
Ye Gengyi still didn't look back, but seemed to be keenly aware of her abnormality.
? !
Hui Yuan Ai was shocked, but before he could turn this emotion into horror.
Ye Gengyi took out his mobile phone from his pocket and said in a calm tone: "What level of ghost do you think I am to have this..."...
[Zi——Do you like Conan? If yes, how about it】
"You! You haven't deleted it yet!"
The corner of Hui Yuan Ai's mouth twitched, and he was about to rush over to grab the phone while trembling all over.
Ye Gengyi calmly turned off the recording and put his other hand against Haihara Ai's head so that his short and useless limbs could not go any further no matter how hard he tried.
"Okay, stop making trouble. I've stored it in an encrypted space. It's very safe."
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻...Safe is a ghost! Delete it for me quickly
Lose!
Huihara Ai struggled for a while, and after realizing that it was of no use, he had no choice but to glare at someone with various threatening looks.
"It's useless," Ye Gengyi patted Haiyuan Ai's head: "I have researched that the eyes themselves do not have energy. The reason why some people can perceive it keenly is because they are sensitive to tiny light. Sensitive to color changes, as well as small changes in movements and expressions... Just like you can sense the aura emitted by me and some people, that is already considered a personal talent. The evidence is that no matter how I experiment, the doctor will not have this aspect. The feeling...otherwise I would have discovered new energy."
His mouth is so venomous... His personality is so bad... And when chatting with him, he always brings the topic to research. This is clearly a brother of Geng Yi! So...what did I doubt just now?
Hui Yuan Ai suddenly felt helpless, "I regret it very much but don't know where I regret it."
Sighing silently, she took the initiative to change the topic:
"By the way, where does this road lead to?"
Ye Gengyi answered simply: "I don't know."
He told the truth.
The Jingdang family's notebook left in the operating room only recorded the design of the mechanism, and did not draw the topographic map of the secret passage. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to visit every place like a tour.
"..."
Haihara Ai took a deep breath, "In other words, we are going to an unknown place now?"
"To say 'unknown' is not accurate. I plan to complete the last few areas."
Ye Gengyi said calmly, "If you want to leave, you can always."
"..."
The corner of Haiyuan Ai's mouth twitched again, "In other words, this place is actually not as dangerous as I thought, right?"
"As long as you don't fall down the stairs like before..."
Ye Gengyi's truthful manner once again made Haihara Ai speechless for a while, and then he proved it with actual actions - after about five minutes and walking through several forks, they came to a certain secret passage. the end of.
No traps were triggered along the way, and naturally no imaginary risks were encountered.
Ye Gengyi took a step forward, walked to the black wall, and pushed hard.
Along with a few subtle clicks, the light from outside came in.
Haihara Ai looked around and found that this was the corridor they passed before, and the door used to cover the exit was a mirror disguised as a wall.
"Go out. It just happened that I passed by there just now. Stop running around." Ye Gengyi said.
"oh……"
Hui Yuan Ai stepped forward and was about to go out subconsciously, but then seemed to remember something, retracted her feet and asked:
"Can I go to the Dark Tower from this place?"
"Okay." Ye Gengyi nodded slightly: "If you want to ask about the case, I have already gone to the top of the tower and looked at the design there. I can basically confirm that Jingtang Taozhi died in an accident."
Already been there...
Haibara Ai thought of the figure Edogawa saw when they were at the pavilion.
Well, it turns out to be Brother Gengyi...
Haiyuan Ai nodded in understanding. Just when she was about to go out to find a certain detective boy, she heard a sound of "ah" and Conan's scream from deep in the secret passage.
