"Conan, you're running too fast, wait for us!"

Ayumi was wearing a plush little dress, and she was sweating from the ample heating in the library, and she raised her hand to wipe the corners of her forehead.

"You guys ran down from the children's library?" , Bai Shu took out a tissue and handed it to her, "Such a high floor, just take the elevator, if you can't press the button, you can ask the adult next to you for help." ”

"We can press it!" , Yuan Tai has begun to care about height at a young age, patted his chest, and explained for himself:

"It's because it's overloaded, the elevator can only carry 7 people, and after we go in, it's 8 people, one more - hum, such a big library, but the elevator is so small."

"Don't make noise, it's a public place." , The Twilight Police Department made a silent gesture to reassure the children, while still caring to answer Conan's question just now:

It is said that Mr. Tamada is a very dedicated person, and when he can't finish his work, he often takes the initiative to stay and work overtime, so every day before leaving work, he will call his wife in the library so that she can prepare dinner.

But the night before, he didn't call, and he has been missing since then. That is, it is likely that he had an accident before leaving work. ”

"Meaning...... Accidentally? ”

The primary school students who have seen the murder are different from other primary school students, and they easily understand what this "accident" means, and they look at each other and are a lot quieter.

Conan mingled in the pile of children, frowning and rubbing his chin, using the extremely limited clues to wonder what this would be.

After all, Tsukawa is the curator, and there are a lot of things, so he stood with him for a short time before being called away by the staff.

Shiraki took the opportunity to come to the side of the Twilight Police Department, and stopped talking, but this appearance successfully attracted Twilight's attention, "What's the matter?" ”

"I think the elevator should be a key check."

The children's hearts of death are like weeds in the field, and they can't be burned clean - in order to prevent the bonus from being deducted, the simplest thing is to solve the danger in advance.

The Twilight Police Department followed his line of sight and looked at the elevator in the corridor, the elevator was obviously running, and there were people coming in and out from time to time, he was a little speechless, "...... There's no hiding anyone in there. ”

"I mean, the top of the elevator." , Bai Shu pointed to the top of his head:

"Didn't Mrs. Yuan just say that they were overloaded when they took the elevator, and there was one more person, so they could only run down the stairs?"

"He said it." "But what does this have to do with hiding people in the elevator?" ”

There was a sudden snap next to him, and Conan smashed his fist into the palm of his hand, looking like he suddenly realized, and shouted to Twilight, "Quick, go control the mechanical room of the elevator!" ”

"Oh, good!" Twilight subconsciously ran out, and after a few steps, he realized that something was wrong and stopped a little awkwardly.

What's the matter, why do you have to listen to a child like this!

Conan saw that he didn't move, and considering that he might be stopped by the staff in the past, he had to stop and explain to him:

"Although the capacity limit of that elevator is 7 people, we have four children, and the other passengers are all slender people, this combination, even if it is 8 people, will not be overloaded!"

"In other words, the extra weight ......", to the point of explanation, the Twilight Police Department finally understood, and was shocked by this bold conjecture with a thin layer of sweat.

His expression became serious, patted the shoulder of Bai Shu, who first proposed this idea, and looked at him deeply with a look of "you are really a talent".

Then he summoned a few police officers and went to the library's mechanical room to switch the elevator switch to manual mode.

After that, the officers pulled the elevator door open, revealing steel cables and some complex machinery behind the door.

Under the control of the mechanical room, with a slight friction sound, the cable pulled the elevator up, and a corpse with protruding eyeballs and a wide open mouth appeared in front of everyone.

Although the deceased had a hideous face, with corpse spots and slight decay, after comparison of characteristics, it was still possible to recognize that this was the missing Kazuo Tamada.

He had a few loops of rope around his neck, a trail of blood spread out on the back of his head, and he looked like he had been strangled and pushed off the elevator - it was a very rushed murder scene, and the prisoner was sure to leave a lot of evidence.

As the director of the library and the last person to work overtime with the deceased, Tsukawa undoubtedly attracted the attention of the police.

He couldn't give enough alibi, his behavior was a little suspicious, and a few hours later, the forensic department gave many clues against him.

At the same time, the police officers searched for drugs from the plastic books in the library, and Tsugawa had no choice but to admit that Kazuo Tamada was killed because he found drugs.

As he was taken away by the police, the murder was over.

When the police left with Tsukawa and the body, it was already dark.

Bai Shu led a group of children who had just died and were ready to send them home.

On the way, Conan put his hands behind his head, looked at the street lamp with unfinished eyes, and sighed, "This case was solved too quickly." ”

Bai Shu heard the regret hidden in his words, and looked over with great disgust, "Otherwise? When the police return in vain, how many of you kids will go to fight the murderer? I'm not exaggerating - Curator Tsugawa can knock your heads off with a stick. ”

Yuan Tai patted his body unhappily, "Nonsense, I'm strong!" ”

Mitsuhiko glanced at Yuan Tai disapprovingly, and seriously defended to Bai Shu, "We will defeat him with our brains." ”

"Uh-huh!" , Ayumi nodded.

"......", Conan uncomfortably deviated his gaze.

He did think that if the police couldn't find anyone, he would secretly hide and look for the body at night, when there was no one," he said...... If you don't study psychology, you're really burying talent. ”

"I've been teaching myself." , Bai Shu showed the book in his hand, it was a very common and unprofessional-looking "Criminal Psychology".

He didn't look at it, he was just making excuses for coming to the library - he couldn't say that he had a premonition that there was a murder, so he came here.

"Wow, it seems to be very powerful, I want to see it too!" , Ayumi and Mitsuhiko's eyes lit up, and they came over and looked at the book with interest.

Bai Shu touched their heads, "Come on and recognize words, after learning Chinese characters, you can read them yourself." ”

"Good!"

……

Finally, after sending Ayumi home, Conan waved his hand at Ayumi who entered the door, "Goodbye." ”

Ayumi looked at him and was stunned for a few seconds before waving her hand, "...... Good bye? ”

On the way back to the Maori Detective Agency, Shiraki looked down at him, "Your 'goodbye' is like 'goodbye', don't scare the child." ”

Conan exhaled heartily and laughed, "Farewell, indeed. Today's case is also the last case I have experienced as 'Edogawa Conan'. ”

When he finishes drinking that bottle of wine, he will be able to regain his identity as Shinichi Kudo!

It was only then that Conan discovered that having an insider by his side was indeed very helpful: not only practical help, but also conducive to the relief of psychological pressure.

…… Unfortunately, he discovered this a little too late: when he drank that bottle of wine, he would be Shinichi Kudo again.

After returning home, White Tree helped Conan take down the bottle of wine that Xiaolan had put on a high place and handed it to him.

Conan hugged the wine bottle with one hand, reached over with the other, and shook him twice, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time, the next time we meet, we will be together." ”

“…… Okay. Alas, it's good if you're happy.

Conan left with the bottle, presumably hiding at the doctor's house to drink.

There was a sound of fire in the kitchen, Xiaolan put the pot away, wiped her hands and walked out, "Brother Naoki, you're back, the meal is almost ready...... Hey, what about Conan? ”

Bai Shu lied without any fluctuations in his heart, "He went to the doctor's house to play, and I heard that the doctor made some new toys." ”

"That's what a playfulness." Xiaolan nodded, and turned back to the kitchen.
