"Mysterious man?"

Hearing this, Mr. Kobayashi and everyone in the Junior Detective Group were stunned, and then immediately asked anxiously:

"What kind of person is it?"

"A sturdy middle-aged man wearing a hat and a face that could not be seen clearly, but the voice was probably about thirty years old."

Conan thought back to the situation at that time and said:

"He was sitting directly on the top of the bookshelf, reading a copy of "The Gentleman of the Strange Thief" in his hand, and then after talking to us, he turned over directly, and his figure looked very athletic......"

"We?"

Suddenly, when Conan was seriously recalling and talking, this slightly inattentive remark immediately attracted the attention of Mitsuhiko and the others, and he couldn't help asking.

In this regard, Conan immediately realized that something was wrong and hurriedly changed his words:

"Ahh Brother Shinichi and Sister Xiaolan! That's how the mysterious man appeared so suddenly, and said this to the new brother. ”

"Hmm...... Although I don't know who the mysterious man is, listening to what he said, my evaluation of Kudo Shinichi at that time was really to the point. ”

At this time, after listening to this, Xiao Ai held his hands in front of him and tasted the words of the mysterious man retold by Conan, and couldn't help but make such an evaluation.

In this regard, Conan seemed to be no longer interested in Xiao Ai's teasing words from time to time, so he simply ignored her and continued:

"At that time, Shinichi's brother asked who the man was with a serious face, and then ......"

……

"Do you say me?"

Ten years ago, on the night of the full moon, in the library of Teidan Elementary School, when the figure wearing a hat jumped down from the bookshelf easily, looking at the nervous and serious appearance of Shinigo in front of Xiaolan, chuckling, this mysterious man unexpectedly said:

"I'm yours...... Brother! ”

"What?"

For a while, this answer made Shinichi stunned in surprise.

But then, the man's answer shocked Shinichi even more-

"No, it's your brother."

As he spoke, he saw that the man put the book "Strange Thief Gentleman" in his hand on the table, and looked down at Shinichi:

"Although the two of us are a little bit older."

"My brother?"

Some nervously took a step back, and Shinichi couldn't help but be a little apprehensive, but with Xiaolan behind him having no way back, Shinichi still pretended to be shocked and retorted:

"Humph! What nonsense are you talking about? Xiaolan, go and call the security uncle over! ”

With that, Shinichi tried to let Xiaolan go first, and then dragged the man in front of him himself......

……

"He just let that girl call someone?"

Hearing this, I feel that the Shinichi ten years ago and the current Conan, although his abilities in all aspects have changed with the growth of time, but to a certain extent, it seems that the logic of behavior is exactly the same, and he is essentially a little boy who loves to be in the limelight.

In this way, this made Xiao Ai feel a little speechless, feeling that even if Conan experienced such a thing now, he would probably make a move to resist adults with the body of a child.

It's just that......

At that time, the person Kudo Shinichi was facing was just two real children, he and Mao Lilan, could he stop him?

In this regard, Xiao Ai has doubts.

Faced with this problem, Conan waved his hand and said helplessly:

"Nope. At the time, I didn't know why, the door to the library couldn't be opened at all. And the mysterious man's claim for this is ......"

……

"It's useless, that door has been controlled by my spell, and it is now listening to me alone."

After Xiaolan tried to open the door to no avail and was about to come out, Shinichi was shocked at the same time, only to see the mysterious man put his index finger up in front of his mouth, and said mysteriously.

Seeing this, Shinichi was also completely anxious, and shouted:

"What did you say?"

"Oh? I'm not here to quarrel with you. ”

However, after seeing Shinichi's reaction, the man's mood was still very calm, and he said with his somewhat mysterious gesture:

"I'm just here to challenge you."

As he said this, the man took out a black zippered wallet from his pocket and walked towards Shinichi.

In this regard, seeing that the other party moved, Shinichi hurriedly came to the door to protect Xiaolan, who was very scared at this time.

But the man just walked up to the two of them quietly, took the wallet and said:

"Let's see if you have a way to find the treasure that lies here. If you find it, you win, and the treasure will be given to you. In addition, I will let you know my true face.

"It's your freedom to accept this challenge or not, and if you do, I'll unlock the spell to let you out. But if you don't want to, you're going to live your whole life in this room that's so cold that your blood freezes.

"Oh, yes. By the way, I'm a big fan of blood! ”

As he spoke, he saw the man's palm flip, and a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand......

……

"What! Treasure! ”

Hearing this, Yuan Tai was immediately excited and asked in surprise:

"Is it a treasure?"

"So, Kudo Shinichi accepted the challenge at the time, right? Did he get the treasure? ”

Mitsuhiko also said curiously.

"It seems that judging from the word 'thank you' written on the last note left in this wallet, I should have found it, so I wrote it, right?"

And Xiao Ai probably thought of something, so analyzed.

In this regard, Conan looked at Xiao Ai, nodded and said:

"Well, I found it. According to the secret message left by the mysterious man, Shinichi and Sister Xiaolan found the so-called treasure. ”

"Cipher?"

When Mr. Kobayashi heard this, he asked with some concern:

"Then who is that person? It feels strange to hide in the library at night and scare children like this. And his so-called spells...... What the hell is it that keeps the door open? ”

Thinking about it a little seriously, it seems that Mr. Kobayashi has been addicted to this story.

In this regard, Conan smiled and explained:

"There's no spell. It's just a ruse made with mops and fishing line. Use the fishing line to control the mop against the door, so that the door will not be opened, and then use the fishing line to remove the mop, and of course the door will open again. ”

"Really? Does that sound like a mischievous weird uncle? And it's weird to challenge an elementary school student, right? ”

Xiao Ai said strangely, and then asked:

"So...... What kind of code is that? ”

And so Conan continued, and as a result—

"Hahahaha! At that time, Kudo Shinichi actually mispronounced the word 'calm'! It's so cute! ”

After listening to Conan's story, because the Chinese characters in the cipher were not known to me at the time, he relied on what he saw and guessed every day to read the text, and this situation attracted laughter from everyone.

Among them, Yuan Tai even said:

"It's stupid! The guy called Shinichi. ”

"I can't help it, he was only in the first grade of elementary school at that time."

couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile, Xiao Ai said so, but at the same time, he was surprised in his heart-

The challenge for children is to use such difficult Chinese characters, who is it? (End of chapter)
