Chapter 53: Little Black × 2

Met so soon? Murderers roaming the library!

Conan was startled and looked around trying to find something that he could kick out with his foot-boosting shoes.

It's a pity that Conan was in the toilet at this time, and there were no "weapons" around him that could be sacrificed except for a few children.

So do you want to use an anesthetic watch?

Conan took out his watch and tried to point it at the black shadow, but found that the black shadow had disappeared from his field of vision in a moment of stunned time.

So fast! Where did he go? Did he find us?

Conan's brain was racing at high speed, and he quickly backed his head back and held his breath in the toilet for a few moments before carefully poking his head out again to look around.

The dim light from the window barely allowed Conan to see the library hall in front of him.

Conan looked around, and the figure was moving so fast that it had completely disappeared into the hall on this floor.

Yes, have you already gone back?

Conan tried to calm the children, and waited quietly a little longer, but still did not see the strange figure reappear.

That person must have left......

It's better to investigate the body first, Conan quickly made a decision.

If you stay like this any longer, these troublesome children will probably make a fuss.

Although Conan didn't spend too much time with these children when it came to time, Conan already clearly felt the trouble of the children.

It's a hassle for little ones...... Conan didn't know how many times he complained, making a plan in his head.

First of all, you should start with the box that contains the strange books, and if there is no problem there, then go and investigate the staircase and floor on the second floor that are damaged for some reason.

If you want to cause such tragic damage to the ground, you can't do it with a chandelier......

Conan pondered all the anomalies he had encountered today, and cautiously walked towards the children's reading room with a few children.

-------------------------------------

In the hallway, Director Tsugawa was sulking alone.

Originally, Director Tsugawa's plan was to follow these two people for the time being, and then find the opportunity to sneak away and use this weapon to sneak attack to solve those two troubles, and it seemed that Toru Amamiya, the only one who had a little bit of combat power.

As for Kotoko Iwanaga, who is like a middle school student, in the expectation of Director Tsukawa, he naturally concocted it as much as he wanted after solving the problem of Toru Amamiya.

It's just that to the surprise of Director Tsugawa, he made an excuse to slip away for less than two minutes, and when he came back, he couldn't find any trace of these two people at all.

Director Tsukawa observed a little, and the door on the first floor showed no signs of opening, and the two troublesome detectives should still be in the library.

So...... Is it probably because he noticed a little bit of his abnormality, but he couldn't bear to give up the truth that was close to him, so he started playing hide and seek with himself in the library?

Based on the experience gained from newspapers and various detective novels, Director Tsukawa judged so.

Although it is not clear why Toru Amamiya and Kotoko Iwanaga do not investigate the case during the day and read books and fish, they look panicked at night.

But it doesn't matter, Director Tsugawa thought to himself, this library is only so big, and his familiarity with the library is far better than that of the other party, so he just needs to prevent these two people from escaping from the first floor.

Although there will definitely be a little delay.

But is this putting yourself so likely to lose?

If this overturns, I'll eat all the books on the first floor of the library!

Director Tsukawa carefully locked the door on the first floor, and then dragged over a heavy bookshelf to block it, ensuring that even if the two hapless detectives found an opportunity to sneak to the door, they would not be able to escape immediately.

Then he began his own path to find a detective.

Along the men's toilet to the women's restroom, from the first floor library to the third floor reading room, but the strange thing is that no matter how he looks, he just can't find any trace of these two detectives.

And just as Director Tsugawa wondered why he couldn't find these two detectives anywhere, he suddenly saw a slender shadow rushing into the stairs from the edge of his vision.

It's the male detective!

Director Tsugawa was overjoyed, weighed the crowbar in his hand, and went straight down the stairs.

It's not that easy to hide from my eyes, little detective...... Director Tsukawa let out a "rebellious" laugh unique to villains in his head.

And just as the happy Curator Tsukawa was about to arrive on the first floor, he keenly saw a dark figure standing next to him......

"Bang!"

Director Tsukawa waved the crowbar in his hand for the first time, and under the excitement, the force of the blunt instrument was more than a worm, and even exceeded the limit that a normal person could reach!

But unfortunately, the opponent he faced was also an unscientific being who exceeded the limits of normal human beings.

The shadow reached out and took the stick effortlessly.

The wind whistled again, but in a second or two, there was no trace of Director Tsukawa at the exit of the stairs.

-------------------------------------

In the children's reading room, Conan and a few children kept rummaging.

Conan quickly found the large suspicious box from earlier.

But the strange thing is that in the suspicious box found by the former Conan, all the previous foreign books have disappeared, and only a few book jackets remain.

Could it be that the suspect has already taken it away?

Conan thought carefully, and then refuted his own speculation.

When I accidentally turned over this box before, this box was full of foreign language books, and it was difficult for a person to take everything with the capacity of this box.

If two or more people are involved in the case, it is undoubtedly inconsistent with my own speculation.

The library was dressed in a secretive way, and it smelled strange, and it should be the only one who could do it, Conan recalled his guess.

So, these foreign language books are indeed quirky, and Conan confirmed his own speculation.

And the books must have been stored on the shelves of the children's reading room, Conan deduced further.

Then, in the same way, since a person can't take all these foreign documents away, then he can't take all these foreign documents to a farther place.

So these suspicious foreign books must still be in this children's reading room.

Conan, concluding that, Conan quickly beckoned a few children to help find clues to the books.

After emptying the bookshelf, I quickly found it, and several children also quickly found out.

On the shelves, where each floor should have two rows of books, there was an extra third line of books, and the middle row of books had strangely no spine.

In this way, it is guaranteed that whoever pulls out the book will see the front and side of the book on the other side.

Conan opened one of the books hidden in the third row, and a whole bag of sealed white powder confirmed his guess.

This director of Tsukawa, who has a strange sour smell and deliberately covers the skin of his wrists, is indeed a dog, and it is a big dog who is organizing the smuggling of goods!

Quickly chaining the existing clues in his head, Conan understood what was going on in this library.

It makes perfect sense that Dog killed the clerk who found the product.

So, the next step is to find Yutian's corpse!

Conan thought of the staircase under repair from the first floor to the second floor, and instantly seemed to have figured out something, and rushed away with his friends.

And at this moment, a small figure suddenly appeared behind them.

The figure looked at the children galloping away, with his back to the dim neon of the city outside the window, his cane tapping lightly on the ground, revealing a cute but ill-intentioned smile.
