Chapter 101The Magician at the End of the Century (10)
"Well...... That, big brother ......" I thought about it bored for a while, and after a few children finished discussing, I finally remembered me who was being pushed aside, and Ayumi looked at me with some hesitation.
Although Xiao Ai explained to himself Yuan Tai and Guangyan just now, he didn't clearly say who this handsome big brother who suddenly appeared was, and he hadn't even told his name, and the Cointreau who Xiao Ai screamed before, I heard Wai Chan say that it wasn't a name......
"I'm a cousin from afar in Xiao Ai, so you can just call me Brother Soma like Xiao Ai. I looked at Ayumi who was struggling, and before I finished speaking, I guessed what she wanted to say, and said a surname at random, I looked at Ayumi and smiled, made a secret gesture, and smiled: "As for Cointreau, this is the secret between me and Xiao Ai, you are not allowed to scream." ”
"Well...... The secret~~" The three children got together again, looking like that, they should be making up something in their brains......
With a full understanding of these little boys, I shrugged my shoulders helplessly, and I turned my head to look at Shiho.
"Hmph!" Shiho turned his head and ignored me.
I touched my nose and laughed dryly, why did I suddenly feel as if I had returned to the time when I was a child when I was 'bullied' by Shiho and Black Cherry......
Black Cherry ......
Thinking of this name again, I couldn't help but be stunned, remembering the pretty girl I just saw not long ago, the smile on the corner of my mouth slowly faded, she should, didn't notice me......
Shaking his head uncertainly, his ears moved, and a slight movement caught my attention, it was the sound ...... Muffler?
"Shhhh......h
"Eh, did something happen?" Mitsuhiko looked at me suspiciously, but in the next second, it was probably because my face scared him, and the three little ghosts were rarely obedient.
Shiho gently walked up behind me, tugged at the corner of my coat, and looked up at me.
I was stunned for a moment, first with a reassuring smile at Shiho and signaling to her, 'Don't worry, I'm here', and then with my eyes motioning for her to hide with the three imps.
It's fine if it's an ordinary person, but after all, I met Black Cherry not long ago, and there is such a killer here called Shi Kaobing, I'm afraid that there is danger and I won't be able to take care of Zhibao...... Let alone...... The movement just now was a gun......
Although the words were not spoken, through the eyes of Shiho, he still understood what I meant, glanced at me and signaled me to be careful, and Shiho obediently walked away.
Looking at the departing Shiho, my heart warmed, in the eyes just now, I clearly understood Shiho's desire to advance and retreat with me, but Shiho is still that intimate Shiho, knowing that his existence will distract me, Shiho has always known how to protect himself.
The footsteps are getting closer, carefully standing at a corner of the tunnel, and the body is ready to make a fighting state, my heart is a little hesitant, if it's really an enemy, do you really want to do it in front of Ayumi's three children?
After listening quietly for a while, the footsteps were light and heavy, it should be two people, after hearing a familiar footfootsteps, my expression was relaxed, and my body was no longer tense, and I waved to Shiho, and I smiled: "It's Conan." ”
As soon as the words fell, a light shone through, and two figures, one large and one small, appeared one after another.
"Ahh
Shiho, on the other hand, looked at me and didn't say anything.
Eh...... Am I saying the wrong thing......
Realizing the question of how 'Cointreau' could have known 'Conan', I regret it infinitely...... That's a habit......
"It's you!" Conan didn't seem to expect that he had already locked the door of the castle, and he would meet these members of the Junior Detective Corps here, and his face was also surprised, but he immediately turned his puzzled eyes to me.
"Isn't this Conan? It's been a long time, have you missed Brother Soma?" Before Conan could express his doubts, I leaned in, glanced at Conan and signaled my identity, and then continued: "Isn't it a surprise? I called you this morning, I didn't expect me to be here, right?"
Conan looked blankly at the strange young man in front of him, and then realized in the next second, ah, who else had called him this morning? Isn't it his cousin Yeyu?
Is this man a night talker?
Conan first looked at the person in front of him suspiciously, and didn't see anything in common with Yeyu's appearance, but when he saw the young man's eyes, he was sure.
"Eh, does Conan know Brother Soma?" Ayumi looked at Conan and me in surprise.
"Heh, actually, we've met before, but you may have forgotten it. I said.
"Huh?" the three detectives looked at Conan blankly.
Conan glanced at me, as if thinking about it for a moment, and then reminded a few of the little ghosts in the Junior Detective Group, "Well, it's someone I knew from a previous case, Ayumi, you should also have an impression, right? It's the case we encountered when we were in an ice cream shop one day." ”
"Huh, have you ever been?"
"Ice cream shop? I only remember the eel shop......"
"Ahh
"Oh!
"It's the big brother. ”
The two imps also remembered.
"Well, that's when I met Conan. I said ominously, then glanced at Shiho, actually explaining to her why I knew Conan.
Why did I suddenly change my appearance on a whim? I think I probably expected this situation in my heart before I came back......
"Well~ Okay, okay, since it's someone you know, let's go with us. "The tall man who has been ignored has finally had a chance to interject.
I turned my head to look, and I noticed it before, it was Officer Shiratori, huh...... Uncooked.
After a casual chat, I followed Conan and Shiratori to find the main army, and explained my identity to everyone (Shiho's distant cousin), and everyone who was not suspicious quickly accepted the fact that there was an inexplicable group of children and a young man.
"Hey," he walked at the end, glancing at Shiho, who was some distance away from us, and under the cover of the unbridled singing of the three imps, Conan whispered to me.
"Huh?" I turned to look at Conan.
"You confessed to Gray Plains?" Conan looked at me hesitantly, Conan felt strange when he heard Night Whisper say that he was Gray Plains's cousin, but because it was inconvenient at the time, he didn't ask about it.
"Ah...... Sort of. I was silent for a moment, looking at Shiho with a pain in my heart, "However, she only knows that I am Cointreau." ”
"That's ......"
"En......" nodded, looked around at everyone around, I frowned and looked at Conan and asked, "Don't talk about this, Na, Conan, didn't you hear any strange movements before?"
"Strange movements?" Conan looked at me suspiciously.
"It's ...... before"
"Eh, strange ......" In the middle of speaking, the singing of the three imps in front of him suddenly stopped.
"Hey, there's no way out. Mori Kogoro walked over and found the problem.
"Did you go the wrong way?" Natsumi asked curiously.
"It's impossible, there should be only one way. Shiratori received.
I glanced at Shiratori, was it my delusion? I always felt that he was familiar with this place? Looking at Shiratori's back, I frowned slightly, and before, this person seemed to be very curious about me, and kept asking me questions as if he was checking my household registration, and always felt that this person was a little strange......
"Ah, there are so many birds!" Ayumi looked at the painting wall in front of her with novelty and sighed.
"Strange, only the big bird has two heads. Mitsuhiko also raised his head and quickly noticed the difference.
"Two-headed bird...... It is the symbol of the emperor. Shiho said lightly on the side, explaining Mitsuhiko's question.
"Emperor, is it the sun behind the crown?" When Shiho said this, he seemed to think of something, and Conan whispered to himself beside me, "The sun...... Ray...... Ahh......h
Conan looked suddenly enlightened, and turned his head to look at Shiratori: "Mr. Shiratori, please use a flashlight to shine the crown on the head of the two-headed bird." ”
Shiratori was stunned for a moment, then did as he was told, and soon, the effect appeared.
It's the principle of a photometer...... Looking at the slowly sinking floor, I raised an eyebrow when I thought of the era when this castle was built, and I couldn't help but feel a little admiration for the person who had completed the design of this mechanism in the first place.
Walking through the cracked passageway, we soon came to a hall again. There was a coffin in the hall, and when it was opened, it was the body of Natsumi's great-grandmother, but these were not my concerns, what I cared about was that in addition to the body, there was another thing in the coffin - a combined 'egg'.
"Ah...... If only I had brought the egg of my memory. Seeing the things in front of him, Mori Kogoro sighed regretfully.
"Ah, I brought it. "Unexpectedly, there are really people who have a stubble......
Kindness. It's this white bird again...... squinted his eyes slightly, and always felt that there seemed to be a good show about to be staged......
