Chapter 212: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
"But boss, I still think it's strange! It stands to reason that Pisk is also the old man of our organization! Keeping communication flowing during a mission is the most basic common sense, right? Why did he leave his phone and laptop in this storage room, and he didn't know where he had gone? I always think there's something weird about this! ”
After following Gin out of the storage room, Vodka, who was standing at the door of the storage room, hesitated for a long time and still spoke out his confusion.
"Huh? Is it weird? No, no, no! It's not weird at all! Pisk is a man I know very well! Since he didn't meet us after dealing with that stupid guy who swallowed Shigehiko, but instead came here with his things, it means that he accidentally caught another surprise in addition to completing the task given to him by the organization! ”
"Ahh I understand! Boss, you mean to say! Pisk: Did he catch that traitor? But we didn't find it in the room just now! ”
"That's when she hid! In order to survive for a while longer, the humble struggled with fate! Pity! No matter how hard she struggles, she won't escape my palm! Now let's go and kill her ridiculous ideas once and for all! ”
Gin, who stood at the door and didn't hear any more movement, sneered, and walked with vodka towards the roof of the old Kakudo City Hotel, where he was going to give his prey the final blow.
And Xiao Ai, who didn't know that he had been discovered by Gin at this moment, propped himself up in the furnace wall with his hands and feet, listened carefully for a while and didn't hear Gin's other voices, Xiao Ai quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and pressed the detective badge in his hand.
"Hey, hey, hey! Conan! Are you there? Gin: They just left me! I may have escaped! ”
"Really? That's great! Yuichi also rushed over! When he arrives, you'll be completely safe! Don't go back to your room now, maybe they're waiting for you not far from the door! After all, you've almost touched what Pisk left behind! If Gin finds out, he'll be able to think you're inside! So now you'd better summon up your courage and climb out of the well like Kotilia! Hahaha! Forehead...... That's right! Now that you've gotten bigger! So your body ...... now"
"Rascals! I've got clothes on, right? It's Pisk's cleaning staff overalls that he put here! And I also have the disk with the drug information! The only pity is that I didn't find the drug here, otherwise my antidote development process would have been faster! But you should be content with all this! And when I go back, I must study this white dry carefully, this wine is really amazing! Could it be that this wine contains elements that accelerate the rate of cell proliferation? If that's the case, then the antidote is ......"
"That's it! My Great Scientist! Don't get complacent, I've tried this wine a long time ago, it only lasts about an hour, and it only works for the first time! After drinking this wine, the body will not react much! So I suggest you put away your research ideas first, and get out of that chimney before you turn back into a child! ”
Hearing that Xiao Ai has a tendency to become a science madman, Conan, who was studying the fragments of iron chains that he had obtained from the forensic staff with his head, immediately poured cold water on her.
And Xiao Ai, who also came to her senses when he said this, immediately discovered the problem she had ignored before.
"Wait! Why did Yuichi come over? Why don't you go to the hotel service staff to inquire about the wine cellar? ”
"That's right! After all, the situation was so urgent at the time, and I don't know if you had a successful seizure there! In order not to lose you, a decent comrade-in-arms, of course I have to do something! But don't worry, I said that I had a friend who was trapped in the wine cellar, not adults and children, and I used him instead of her, so even if the people from the Black Organization checked it later, they shouldn't have thought that we had become smaller, and besides, Yuichi came over and covered me again. So it shouldn't be suspicious of the organization! You can rest assured! ”
"Alright! And what about Pisk? Did you find out? ”
"Of course! I already know who Pisk is, and now I'm just building a chain of evidence, and when my reasoning logic is backed up by enough evidence, I can bring him to justice! ”
"Really? Good luck then! ”
"Haha! You too! ”
In order to save Xiao Ai's physical strength, after a few words of explanation, Conan hung up the detective badge, and within a few minutes, an officer from the forensic department walked over excitedly.
"Officer Takagi! The Kudo Police Department asked the purple handkerchief sent by this little brother to have scorch marks and gunsmoke reactions on it! In other words, the murderer used this handkerchief to cover the silenced pistol and shoot at the crystal chandelier, and on the piece of iron chain that the Kudo Police Department picked up, we also experimented with the message that the Kudo Police Department asked this little brother to bring, and it was indeed coated with phosphor, so that the murder of the Swallowing Councilor can be confirmed! And the seven suspects who are making trouble inside also have a way to get rid of it! They didn't change their clothes, just experiment with them one by one! ”
"Really? It's really worthy of the Kudo Police Department! In this way, I see how crazy those people are! Walk! Come in with me and meet the so-called gentlemen and ladies. ”
Looking at Conan, who was leaving with someone, he complained uncomfortably, "MMP, this is my idea!" He immediately followed, but he had a lot to ask Pisk, a member of the Black-Clad Organization he had captured.
Just when Conan's progress was rapid, Xiao Ai, who was struggling to survive, finally put his hand on the exit of the fireplace chimney before he was unconscious, and mustered up the last bit of strength, Xiao Ai successfully turned his whole person out of the chimney with the weight of his body.
Sitting on the roof that had been covered with snowflakes, Xiao Wai with his back against the chimney couldn't help but pull a smile at the corner of his mouth. Finally escaped from fear, and sure enough, dreams are still dreams after all!
However, just as she was about to say good news to Conan, after a sudden snort, a bloody flower bloomed on her left arm leaning against the chimney, instantly dyeing the entire cleaning staff's overalls dark red against the background of the snowflakes flying in the sky.
Then Xiao Ai, who felt the pain in her body, immediately looked up at the direction where the bullet came, and then the man who had appeared countless times in her nightmares appeared in front of him with a sneer on his face.
"Long time no see! Shirley! Do you know how much I miss you? Hey, hey, hey! ”
