Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Nightmare Repeats (5) The Children Who Work Together

"You look so much better when you smile than you did just now. Kurosawa glanced at Gray Yuan and his tightened hand, smiled slightly, and withdrew his hand without a trace, "So keep your mind and don't show that sad expression just now." ”

Sorry, it's not the time to know each other, so please pretend you don't know each other.

"I will. Gray Yuan nodded in understanding, this voice not only showed his mentality, but also showed that he had understood the meaning of Kurosawa's words.

Kurosawa Silver nodded reassuringly, and then shifted his gaze to Conan, seeing that Conan was looking at him blankly, he couldn't help but laugh: "Are you frightened by my ability to comfort girls? I am very good at pleasing people, which is also an important reason why I can live alone until now!"

"Ahh......h At this time, what he was thinking about was actually the origin of the "Asti" that Gray Yuan called out to Kurosawa, but now was obviously not the time to ask. He was going to find a chance to talk to Gray Yuan.

Kurosawa Silver saw what he was thinking, and changed the subject: "Did you find the key from that uncle?"

"The key......" Conan turned his head.

Not far away, a group of children had almost stripped the scar man on the ground. The other party's fair skin was exposed, and his disheveled appearance looked really unsightly. But the good news is that their search has paid off.

"Find, find!" Yuan Taixing raised his hand, holding a bunch of keys in his hand, "but there are a lot of ......"

"It would be a waste of time to try one by one......" Kenta couldn't help but mutter.

"You don't have to try. Conan said without hesitation, "The paint on the door is very new, it must have just been renovated like that, so just look for the brand new key - the other keys are very old, and you can tell that they have been used for a long time." ”

"Really!" Motota, who was holding up the key, quickly found the key according to Conan's words, and ran to the door with it in his hand, eager to open the lock and escape. A group of friends naturally followed suit.

The man with the scar who fell to the ground still showed no signs of waking up......

"It seems that Dr. Asasa has strengthened the effect of the anesthetic needle again. After muttering, Conan was already standing in front of Scarman. He squinted at Scarman's body, his gaze back and forth between Scarman's face and body.

The color of the skin is not right.

The face is so dark, but the skin of the body is so white, and even the hands that should be as bare as the face all the year round are too white......

"Edogawa. At this time, Gray Yuan also seemed to have noticed something, and stepped forward, "Tear the mask off his face." ”

Conan was already in action almost the moment she spoke.

It turned out as they expected.

Conan pinched a delicate mask and looked at the ordinary-looking man lying on the ground with a cold face.

Transfiguration!

Over there, Yuan Tai had already taken the lead in opening the door and even pushed the door to go out, and when he turned around, he was about to greet Conan and the other three who were still standing next to the scar man and left quickly, but they were caught off guard and saw what Conan was carrying.

"Wow!" Hotaru was startled, "What is that?human skin? It's like acting in a horror movie!"

"That's a mask! you can put it on and make up for another person!" Ayumi was much better than Hotaru in this matter, she glanced at Hotaru and snorted softly, "Have you heard of Kidd the Strange Thief? He's the best at this!"

"Of course I've heard of it......," Hotaru struggled with a face, "but why is it here?"

"Could it be that the thief Kidd is the murderer who kidnapped us?" Gan Yan touched his nose and weakly uttered a terrible guess.

"No way, the strange thief Kidd has always been a thief, how would he do such a thing as kidnapping. Mitsuhiko vetoed it without thinking about it, "And there is not only one person in this world who is good at disguise Kidd, but Brother Kurosawa is also good at it!"

"Are you saying that Brother Kurosawa is a kidnapper?" Ayumi puffed out her cheeks.

Mitsuhiko was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his head like a rattle: "How can it be ...... if not"

As the group of children raised questions about transfiguration, Conan on the other side slowly tightened his grip on the mask in his hand.

The well-made mask lying in the palm of his hand gave him a silky and warm touch, but Conan's heart was cold.

He remembers that before he was kidnapped, Mori was investigating a 16-year-old kidnapping involving Kurosawa Gin.

He remembered the panic and nervousness of Ashbara when he realized his situation, the fear on Ashbara's face when he saw the face of the scarred man lying on the ground, and the "Asti" that Ashbara blurted out when he saw Kurosawa.

He remembered that there were four or five scarecrows littered with numbered labels scattered all over the basement, and that he had seen a lot of straw scattered in the basement not long ago—and that remained by the door.

He remembered the door that had been deliberately painted to look like it had been painted off, but it was actually very new, and the lock that paired it with the key, which was also very new.

Then he held a disguised mask in his hand......

Someone, brought them here, wants to repeat the case of sixteen years ago.

"Your expression is a little scary. Kurosawa Silver, who was not far away, reminded.

Conan woke up from his own world, looked at Kurosawa, who was urging him to hurry up, and smiled casually: "Sorry, I thought of something else, let's go." ”

He quickened his pace past Kurosawa and followed the Junior Detectives and the three children out of the basement.

Outside the door is a long corridor that passes from an unknown place and goes towards an unknown place. The corridor is flanked by walls, and with the exception of a door and a window in the basement, there are torches that are flapped at a certain distance. The flames danced quietly in the corridor, and the dim light made everyone's shadows sway in the wind, which was quite eerie.

Ayumi couldn't help but shrink behind Conan, and even if Hotarumi, who was also a girl, was bold, her face was a little pale at this time.

Of course, it's okay to get used to it.

Conan didn't have to get used to it, he went out, found the person lying outside the window, walked over, and picked up his watch.

He really didn't have anything to play just now, so he had to use his watch as a football, and the effect was quite good.

But there are also coincidences.

For example, the window had to be opened to see what was inside—they could hear the window opening and closing all the time when they couldn't see, and for example, there was only one person on patrol—there was only one person on patrol before.

If you can see without opening the window, if there are two or more people on patrol, then Conan will not be able to solve the obstacle outside the window so easily, and have the capital to meet the next challenge.

The next challenge is here.

The footsteps are soft, but what can't be heard in this silent environment?

The subtle thing is that this corridor has a design corner, so that the basement exit can become a blind spot.

The footsteps were getting closer, closer and closer, a man and a woman talking and walking around the corner, relaxed and unaware that they would encounter a trap.

"It's now!"

The emaciated Mihiko and Mitsuhiko pressed against the wall, and when Ayumi was not far away, she made a hand pressing posture and strained the rope in her hand.

The woman walked in front, caught off guard and was hooked, the lower body lost balance and was about to be planted forward, the instinctive hand slapped the ground, a side flip was not finished, she was directly hit in the back by a shoe, and fainted with a muffled snort.

The man's calf didn't touch the rope before he saw the woman's gaffe, his face changed and he quickly reached out to the right side, and when the arm was about to touch the wall by Mitsuhiko, Mitsuhiko's short body slid directly from the man's armpit like a loach, and the man didn't have time to adjust his body at this time, and his head was hit.

After a short encounter, the children's side won a big victory!

Conan moved his ankle, and Motota ran up to pick up his two shoes, showing off his shoes as he put them on.

"What......" Hotaru couldn't help but pout, "It's obviously this bespectacled kick that is good, what is he proud of?" Witnessing Conan's footwork three times, Hotaru's impression of Conan has also improved to a certain extent, but her attitude is still not very gentle.

After defeating the bad guys, the experienced young detective team first pulled up a man and a woman and tied them up with ropes, and then began to pick up their clothes inhumanely, and Mihiko and Kenta also came to help.

In addition, under Conan's orders, they have one more task.

Ayumi took the two torn masks and handed them to Conan.

When Conan took it, he glanced at the silent Gray Plains next to him, and then he turned his face and held the mask, the expression on his face was calm, but his eyes kept flickering.
