“‘LE ESCARGOT’？ Oh, I have the impression that it was reported in the news last week that the female owner of this French restaurant met a robber murderer and was killed, right? ”

Hearing the incident mentioned by Mitsuhiko, and then looking at the sign at the door of the French restaurant that should no longer open, Conan followed.

"Huh? What? Conan, what are you reading? Why do you have such a strange name? ”

And after listening to Conan read out the string of unknown characters on the store's sign, Yuan Tai asked a little strangely.

"There's nothing strange about it. The word 'escargot' refers to the edible snails in French cuisine. ”

"Huh? Can snails eat too? ”

Hearing Conan say this, Yuan Tai couldn't help but say in surprise, and then imagined the situation of a snail cooking, Yuan Tai couldn't help but feel disgusted and vomited.

In this way, noticing Yuantai's expression, Conan was helpless in his heart-

What is this guy thinking?

Then, having thought about it, Conan said:

"I heard Uncle Maori talk to Officer Twilight on the phone about this, as if the victim slept until noon and got up, and then happened to meet the robber who opened the lock and entered the house, and collided with the other party."

"In other words, the robber thought that there was no one in the store, so he opened the lock and entered it to steal."

And listening to Conan's narration, Xiao Ai couldn't help but say.

"It should be. When the deceased was found, his hands and feet were tied, and he was stabbed to death by robbers without the ability to resist. ”

Conan nodded, and continued:

"According to my guess, the robber snatched all the money after forcing him to find out where he hid it, and killed the victim before leaving."

"Hey! It's scary! ”

Hearing such a murderous incident, happening in the closed French restaurant in front of him, Yuan Tai couldn't help but shudder, and said with some fear.

"With such a murderous prisoner, it seems that our junior detective group is useless......"

And after Mitsuhiko heard this, he said this with a little regret, it seems that originally, he mentioned this robber murder case that had not yet caught the culprit, and wanted to see if there was a chance to investigate, but now after hearing what Conan said, he had to give up.

In this regard, Conan and Xiao Ai looked at them with indifferent expressions, and they didn't say anything, just like that, everyone from the Young Detective Group continued to walk forward......

……

"Jingle bell—"

In the wise house and living room, the telephone of the landline phone keeps ringing.

However, since Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai have not returned at this moment, there are almost no phone calls on this landline, so it is naturally impossible for anyone to answer.

In this way, as the phone rang for about a minute, the call finally stopped ringing and stopped ringing.

And at this moment, in a phone booth not far from the wise house, a man is wearing a motorcycle helmet on his head, sunglasses on his face, a tight coat on his body, and gloves on his hands. I couldn't see the age and appearance clearly, so I could only confirm that it was a man's figure, hung up the receiver of the public phone, canceled the missed call, and then walked out of the phone booth and looked in the direction of the wise house, and the corner of the man's mouth couldn't help but have a sneer.

Then, I saw him in this costume, carefully approached the vicinity of the Wise House, after confirming that no one had walked here, the man suddenly turned over over the wall outside the Wise House, and then squatted down, and quickly moved from the front of the Wise House to the back of the courtyard, and after coming to this place that would not be discovered by passers-by, he found a window on the first floor, and the man took out a glass cutting tool from his big pocket, and pasted it on the window, close to the position of the lock in the window, and drew a gap in the glass window. Then the man reached through the gap and opened the lock of the window, and then he could push the locked window open.

And when he had done this, the man put away his tools, lay his hands on the windowsill, and turned over and entered the house of wisdom—

So, after entering, the man found that the location he was in was a study......

……

On the other side, the juvenile detectives walking on the way out of school-

Due to the different directions of their own home, after walking through a common section of the home, one after another, Ayumi, Motota, Mitsuhiko, and Conan, also embarked on different sections.

After saying "goodbye" to each other, when they came to Rice Flower Town 2-chome, Xiao Ai was already walking alone on the last leg of the journey home.

However, at this very moment-

Alert ......

Feeling that his mobile phone kept vibrating, Xiao Ai took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and looked at the alarm information displayed on the mobile phone, Xiao Ai's brows couldn't help frowning-

This is......

Someone touched the security system of the wise house!

Thinking of this, Xiao Ai was about to open his mobile phone to check more specific information, when suddenly, a call from Gao Yuan jumped out of the mobile phone interface.

So, Xiao Ai immediately connected the phone-

"Hey! Gray Plains! Where are you now? Got home? ”

I was a little anxious, and a lofty voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Not yet...... But...... It's not far away. ”

Hearing the anxiety in Gao Yuan's tone, because of the alarm information just now, Xiao Ai probably guessed what Gao Yuan was worried about, so he said so.

In this regard, after hearing his answer, Xiao Ai clearly heard it, and Gao Yuan, who was on the other end of the phone, breathed as if relieved, and then said with relief:

"That's good...... Just now, the sensor on the study window detected that something had passed through the window, and I turned up the surveillance and found that it was a man wearing a helmet who had broken into our house. Now, since you haven't gone back yet, let's go and hide somewhere else, like Dr. Asasa's house or somebody else......"

"Don't call the police?"

With a solemn expression, hearing Gao Yuan say this, Xiao Wai couldn't help asking-

The home was broken into by an unknown person, and it is very likely that it was a burglar robber......

At this point, because I just heard about the robber murder case in a French restaurant from Conan, Xiao Wai subconsciously thinks so.

"Wait a minute, although the monitoring in several places in the room is not fully covered, but they are very hidden, wait for me to take a look and determine the purpose of the other party. If it's really just a simple burglary, it's never too late to call the police...... Anyway, the important things are not on it. ”

On the other end of the phone, Gao Yuan said:

"Anyway, I'll take care of it. You pay attention to safety......"

"Okay."

Hearing Gao Yuan say this, Xiao Ai naturally nodded with relief, and at the same time, he also understood the meaning of Gao Yuan's words in his heart-

The other party may not be a simple burglary.

After all, because of the Belmode matter, he and Gao Yuan did so much insurance yesterday before going out to investigate.

Although everything was okay yesterday and I did some wayward things because of this, it doesn't mean that today is safe.

At this time, his and Gao Yuan's home was invaded by outsiders, and it really can't be ruled out that those people did it......

However, fortunately, the facilities of the wise house are well-equipped.

No one would have expected that not only the door, but also the windows of the wise house are equipped with very hidden infrared sensors, once something passes through, the sensor senses, it will send an alarm signal to their own mobile phone, so it is almost impossible to invade the wise house silently......
