Pretend To Be a Good Person In the World of Conan

After Hattori Heiji said excitedly, he suddenly realized something and was very embarrassed.

He cleared his throat, put down his hands, and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

—Although Shiraishi used the word "perhaps".

But in Hattori Heiji's view, if Shiraishi really couldn't be sure that the treasure was related to the old man, he would definitely not just give the answer. Instead, like other detectives, he will explain the reasoning process from the beginning, so that his companions can help to see which part of the reasoning is wrong.

However, Shiraishi came to the conclusion directly.

...which means that in his mind, the answer to this question is so obvious that it doesn't even require much explanation.

But it took me several minutes to figure it out, and I accidentally said it... It's too embarrassing for detective Osaka!

Hattori Heiji was unwilling.

After a second, he suddenly felt more embarrassed this way - Shiraishi didn't know what he was thinking just now, so he could pretend that he would say "So it is" because he solved other mysteries.

So Hattori Heiji immediately raised his face again. At the same time, I thought fortunately, fortunately it was dark here, and Shiraishi couldn't see his expression clearly.

Shiraishi actually saw it clearly.

However, he is not very interested in the process of repairing the self-esteem of high school students. He only knows that this teammate finally understands the situation. When the police arrive, he can be a qualified commentator.

Besides... it's almost time to send information to the old lady.

Shiraishi followed the ghosts' directions, and while Hattori Heiji's mood was fluctuating, he inadvertently took him to the exit, intending to have a wonderful encounter.

The two soon came to the end of a road.

Hattori Heiji looked around and stopped without using Shiraishi's intentional reminder. Judging from the terrain, this place is likely to be connected to the corridor of the castle.

Thinking like this, Hattori Heiji plans to knock on the wall first to see if the back is hollow or solid. If it is hollow, you can find the mechanism with confidence.

However, as soon as he lifted the folding stick, he didn't wait for a knock when he suddenly saw Bai Shi approaching the door, carefully searching for something, but unfortunately blocked the landing spot of his stick.

Hattori Heiji thought to himself that the hero sees the same thing, that it is easy to do white work like Shiraishi.

He changed the direction of the folding stick in his hand and continued to knock on the place that was not blocked by Shiraishi.

If it's empty, look for the mechanism with Shiraishi.

If it is solid, it directly excludes a wrong answer.

But Shiraishi found the switch faster than he could knock on the wall.

- Before the stick hit the wall, Hattori Heiji saw Shiraishi raise his hand and press it against the wall, and then the wall in front of him suddenly flipped open.

The outside is indeed the corridor of the castle.

But to Hattori Heiji's surprise, there was a person standing in the corridor. The man turned his head in horror and happened to meet them in the eye.

- "Old Madam" has gray and messy hair hanging down to her waist, her face is full of pits and wrinkles, and she wears an old-fashioned hat on her head, her appearance has not changed.

But she, who should be disabled, didn't have a wheelchair by her side at this time, she was standing by herself, and her figure was obviously much taller than before.

Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, thinking that his luck was really good today, whatever he wanted—just about to find "Old Madam" to inquire about the situation, she brought it to the door by herself.

And in this way, it can be completely determined - the real old lady, who has long been unable to walk due to leg problems, but the person in front of her is standing so stably, she must be a fake!

The revolving door is now exactly 90° to the wall.

Hattori Heiji reacted very quickly, and rushed out from the side where there was no Shiraishi.

Nishikawa Suimei shivered, turned her head and ran to the other wall, trying to trigger the mechanism to hide in the secret passage, but before that, Hattori Heiji swooped in and knocked the person down from behind.

"..." Shiraishi sighed inwardly. Too weak, this childhood shadow is really too weak, obviously not proportional to her terrifying appearance.

In the original plot, she could be so scary, probably all because of the juvenile detective team... Now that she has suddenly changed people, even if Ma Lilan has been put away by herself, and the Hattori Heiji alone, it is not a violent customs clearance in seconds.

However, as a good employee with only tasks in mind, Shiraishi has not forgotten his mission of maintaining balance.

As soon as Hattori Heiji held the person down, Shiraishi consciously followed, and said anxiously, "Where is Conan?"

"!" Hattori Heiji put a finger on his lips while he was busy, and secretly gave Shiraishi a secret signal.

His temporary teammate glanced at him, and after a moment of surprise, he understood and stopped talking.

However, Nishikawa Suimei has successfully got something.

She rolled her eyes, laughed sinisterly twice, and began to make things out of nothing: "I let my companions watch him, and once I lose contact, he will be torn up immediately!"

"Calm down, don't mess around." Shiraishi negotiated with her sincerely, "We can tell you where the treasures of the castle are, but on condition that you release them first."

"..." Hattori Heiji sighed inwardly.

In fact, it is still not certain that Kudo was caught by this old lady.

Maybe Conan also discovered the strange traces in the secret passage, and then in order to find out the truth, he indulged in solving puzzles, leaving aside the lingering and forgetting of his companions in the secret passage - this kind of thing, Kudo can completely do it.

There is another possibility.

- Judging from the two doors that he and Shiraishi had contacted with, the position of the secret door switch is usually set higher.

Without something to step on, Conan can't reach the mechanism at all, so he will be trapped in the tunnel and it will be difficult to escape.

So originally, Hattori Heiji wanted to make a roundabout test first.

If Conan is really in the hands of this fake old man, then continue to test whether she has any accomplices, and if so, how the two communicated and contacted, so that the time difference may be used to rescue Conan.

If all of the above were the worst answers, then it would be too late to negotiate with her.

And if the old lady has never seen Conan at all, things will be even better - catch her and her accomplices together, and then ask Mamiya Mitsuo to help send some people to find someone together in the secret passage.

Who knew that the abacus was playing well, but before he could speak, his teammates threw out the hole cards.

In this way, whether Conan is in the hands of the fake old man or not, she will use this as a bargaining chip, because it is difficult for her to verify.

...Well, Kudo is right, a good character can sometimes be a hindrance - not enough dogs, and it is easy to lose his composure because he is worried about his companions.

Hattori Heiji's mood is a bit complicated.

But up to now, we can only do as the old lady said.

Nishikawa Suimei saw Hattori Heiji let go of the hand holding her, and suddenly heaved a sigh of relief and got up from the ground.

She actually had no help at all.

On the one hand, she doesn't want to share the treasure with other people, on the other hand, she also knows that what she has done is too exaggerated - killing so many people, if the "helper" wants to sell her, as long as she calls the police, she will probably be in prison. The old lady who lives here may even be sentenced to death.
