……

Inside this castle, there is a layer of smoke like a mystery, false and false news, which makes people unable to see the facts at all.

Now it can be said that there is a useful evidence, that is, those chess pieces in the courtyard, which is not only too much to think about, but even Conan has thought of it.

"Chess !! in the Yard"

……………

After finding a spot where you can observe the chess pieces in the yard, you can look down from the window of the villa.

When you look at the chess pieces from above, they are indeed very beautifully arranged. Ayumi and the others are very surprised by those chess scenes.

Motota and Mitsuhiko were quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery in the courtyard from one window to another.

After taking a closer look, Taiyi still didn't find any rules contained in this chess.

However, when I saw Conan's vigorous writing and drawing in a small notebook, although I couldn't figure it out for a while, one thing I can be sure of is that there must be some secret in it!

After watching it for a few minutes, Taiyi was not interested in facing the chess game below, especially when he saw Xiao Ai, standing by the window with a peaceful face.

"Uh-huh~~~" Taiyi walked to Xiao Ai's side quietly, cleared his throat, and before he could speak, he couldn't speak at all.

After all, when Xiao Ai's cold gaze looked at him, Taiyi suddenly didn't know what to say, so he had to turn his head away in embarrassment.

Conan, on the other side, sat on the ground with a small notebook, concentrating on what secrets were contained in those chess.

“…… Is there any special meaning to the way these chess pieces are played? Or ........."

"Please, what the hell are you two doing?" Taiyi inadvertently turned his head, and saw Yuan Tai, a little fat man, lying on the window, both legs went down, and almost fell off the balcony.

Taiyi hurriedly ran to the next room and directly dragged Yuantai, the little fat man, up.

"Huh~~~" The clothes on Yuantai's body were completely soaked with sweat. "I almost fell just now."

"Now I'm saved."

Today's Taiyi was completely annoyed by Yuan Tai, and according to this little fat man, he was beaten violently, and he was beaten with his head.

Taiyi, who was staging a full martial arts, inadvertently turned around and found that Conan had disappeared from this room.

"Huh~~~ Where's Conan?"

After hearing Taiyi's words, Mitsuhiko and the others also noticed that something was wrong with the situation in the room, and before they knew it, Conan disappeared from this room.

"Strange, wasn't he still here? In the blink of an eye, why is it gone. ”

………………

In fact, during that moment, what Taiyi didn't know was that after Conan ran over with Taiyi, he found that there was a large space in the middle wall of these two rooms.

This made Conan suspicious. After observing for a while, as the wall groped inch by inch, I found that one place was empty.

After seeing this design, especially the fact that there is a clock hanging on the wall, Conan can see at a glance the mechanism contained here.

“…… In the past, there used to be such a secret passage, turning the dial of the clock, as long as the hands turned to a certain time, it was ........."

Conan, who was happily studying the secret passage of the mechanism, did not expect that in a careless manner, the wall turned over and locked him in directly, which also caused him to be completely unable to see where Conan went.

………………

For Taiyi, who was looking for Conan outside, he himself was very excited to discover this hidden secret passage.

"As I expected, this castle is not simple at all!"

After turning on his flashlight again, Conan himself is now in a state of boiling blood, after all, there is nothing better for this crime-solving maniac than solving secrets.

"It's getting more and more interesting."

After turning on the flashlight on his watch, Conan slowly walked forward along the secret passage.

"This is the staircase? It seems to be quite deep. Conan walked down the staircase, step by step.

"I wonder where this staircase will end?"

"Hey, this is ~~~"

At the bottom of this staircase, Conan found a skeleton in it, which must have been dead for a long time.

Conan, who was only looking at the skeleton intently, didn't notice that a man in black touched him behind him.

……………

"You say Conan is gone?"

Ayumi and Xiao Ai, after hearing Taiyi's words, were a little incredible, "Conan, wasn't he still there just now, in that room?" ”

"How do I know where that little imp has gone?"

Taiyi still feels a little puzzled, UU reading the book .et "It's just a blink of an eye, we just turned our heads, and he disappeared all of a sudden."

Xiao Ai, after hearing Taiyi's words, looked carefully at the furnishings in this room, "The chair that fell on the ground, the book was scattered on the ground again, the lid of the clock was opened like that, and even the clock was broken." ”

Looking at the things scattered in front of him, Xiao Ai felt as if he had grasped something, and walked directly into the room to help up the chair.

Then she did the same thing as Conan had just done, standing on the chair with the book, and just put her hand on the clock.

"Messing around~~~"

At this time, a person suddenly broke in, it was that noble young master. He stood on the chair with the book facing Xiao Ai, his face a little gloomy.

"You're really pranksters!"

"Prank???

Taiyi's straight temper couldn't stand this little mourning lord who said him, but before he could say anything, Xiao mourning silently took his hand and shook his head.

Looking at Xiao Ai's expression of motioning to Taiyi not to speak, he immediately fell silent, although it may take a while and a half, and he can't find Conan.

However, Taiyi thinks that as Conan who is the protagonist in this world, there shouldn't be anything major.

Of course, the more important thing is that Lord Xiao Wai finally ignored him, although he just gave him a look, and didn't say anything, but this is more important than anything else, after all, this is a good start.

So at this important moment for Taiyi, he could only say sorry to Conan silently, after all, at this critical time, he could only stand aside.
