Conan: Above force, everything is truth!

The next day

Conan and his friends were walking on the way home.

Unlike Mitsuhiko and his friends, Conan kept his head down all the way, frowning as he thought about something.

Seeing this, Huihara Ai shook her head and said nothing.

She had heard about what happened from Ryunosuke at home, and she could probably guess what Conan was thinking at the moment.

If Ryunosuke wasn't there, she might be more anxious than Conan now.

After all, when you know that the organization you want to defeat so much actually has someone on top, anyone would be shocked and doubt their life.

But when she thought of Ryunosuke, Huihara Ai smiled and shook her head.

For some reason, she had an inexplicable confidence in Ryunosuke.

——"Let's play hide-and-seek!"

At this moment, Ayumi said excitedly.

"Hide-and-seek?" Huihara Ai blinked in confusion.

"Yes! Anyway, I have a day off tomorrow, so I can go home late tonight!" Ayumi nodded heavily.

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko on the side immediately raised the empty can in his hand: "I just happened to have a can of juice that Yuanta just drank. We can play hide-and-seek by kicking the can!"

Just when Conan wanted to refuse, Yuanta pressed Conan's shoulder and excitedly said: "If you want to play, I know a good place! Let's go!"

Conan: "..."

Soon after, several people came to a building under Yuanta's leadership.

Although the iron door of the building was closed, there was still a wide gap below.

"I looked in through the gap of this iron door before, and there was no one inside." Yuanta put his hands on his hips and said, "It must be fun to play hide-and-seek here!"

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko exclaimed: "Hey! Yuanta, you can actually find such a good place! This place is like a secret base!"

Without waiting for Conan to object, Mitsuhiko and the other two had already entered the building through the gap under the iron door.

Seeing this, Conan quickly picked up his schoolbag and followed him in.

Huihara sighed and also went in.

After deciding the rules, several people played rock-paper-scissors.

Conan, who had the worst luck, successfully became the 'ghost' and was responsible for catching people.

Seeing that Conan was chosen as the 'ghost', Mitsuhiko and the other two laughed:

"As expected of Conan, it's you!"

"Conan's luck has always been bad~"

"It's okay, Conan, you can change people when you catch us~"

Conan squinted his eyes, sighed helplessly, and accepted the reality.

For some reason, he always lost when playing rock-paper-scissors with these people.

It was the same when he was in school, and he seemed to have hardly won the game of rock-paper-scissors.

"Okay! Let's hide!" With Yuanta's shout, everyone scattered in the building.

Conan turned around and walked to the wall, counting numbers loudly with his back to everyone.

After counting ten numbers, the "dejection" on Conan's face had long disappeared, revealing a joyful smile: "Okay! Let me find you quickly~"

In less than three minutes, Conan found Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Huihara.

Seeing that Huihara Ai was also found, Ayumi was surprised: "Eh? Little Ai was found so quickly?!"

"There is no way, after all, the guy who is a ghost is a detective who likes to chase, flee and hide the most, and he will dig out his opponent even if he chases him relentlessly." Huihara Ai said lightly.

"What are you talking about?!" Conan looked at Huihara Ai with dissatisfaction.

If he didn't know her background, Conan would think that Huihara might really be Ryunosuke's child.

In terms of sarcasm and making people's mentality, they are exactly the same...

Just then, the detective badge in Conan's pocket suddenly heard Genta's call.

——"Can you hear Conan?"

"What's wrong Genta?" Conan took out the badge and responded.

Huihara Ai and the other two also came forward to check the situation.

At this time, Yuan Tai's cautious voice came from the badge again: "It seems that someone is here! I just heard a sound, like someone is knocking on the wall!"

Just when he said this, Yuan Tai heard the knocking sound again, and said in panic: "It's coming again! I heard it again! There is indeed someone in the building!"

Conan hurriedly comforted Yuan Tai, and after Yuan Tai's emotions stabilized, he continued: "Don't worry, we will find you now. By the way, is that sound still continuing now?"

"No, it seems to be gone now. The first time it was two, then five, and finally it rang two more times and stopped." Yuan Tai recalled.

Hearing this, Conan and Mitsuhiko all showed nervous expressions.

If Yuan Tai heard it correctly, then 252 means-'someone needs rescue'.

"Isn't that the emergency rescue call code issued by the Fire Department?! My sister taught me not long ago that 252 is the code for someone requesting rescue..."After listening to it, Ayumi was surprised and said, "Isn't that the knocking code that Conan used when we were in the sushi restaurant last time?!"

"Yes, if Genta heard it correctly, it means that someone is in this building and is asking us for help." Conan said seriously, "In short, let's meet up with Genta first, and then we'll talk about it later!"

A minute later, everyone ran up the stairs and reunited with Genta smoothly.

"Didn't the sound disappear before we got here?" Conan asked.

Genta nodded.

"Then there's nothing we can do. Since Genta doesn't know which room the sound came from, we can only look for it one by one." Mitsuhiko frowned.

Just as everyone was about to start searching, the knocking sound suddenly sounded again.

This time, everyone heard the knocking sound clearly.

After listening to the sound carefully for a while, Conan wondered, "The sound should come from upstairs, but it sounds... not 252? It seems that we can only go to confirm it."

Hearing this, everyone nodded and walked up the stairs together.

Soon, everyone came to the door of the room where the knocking sound came from.

After asking everyone to move a little further away, Conan nervously opened the door.

The scene inside the room was beyond Conan's expectations.

Two men in light green work clothes stood in front of the pillar. One of the thin men was knocking on the pillar with a hammer in his hand, and the other fatter man was holding a notebook and recording something.

Seeing this, the nervousness on Conan's face instantly disappeared.

Seeing this, Huiyuan and the other two on the side also came to the door and looked into the room curiously.

After hearing the sound of the door opening, the two men stopped their actions and turned to look at Conan and the others.

"What's wrong, you kids?"

"This won't work. How can you just break into this building?"

Hearing this, Conan pushed the door open and asked, "Uncles, what are you doing here?"

"Because we are going to demolish this building, we need someone to knock on the wall to confirm the strength of the building." The thin man with a hammer replied.

The fatter man turned his head to look at the thinner man and smiled: "This guy got carried away and started to beat the music to the rhythm~ Please, you should be more serious!"

After listening to the conversation between the two, Mitsuhiko and the other two couldn't help but let out a "Huh?" sound.

"So, the 252 that Yuanta heard before was not a rescue signal~" Mitsuhiko looked at Yuanta and said with relief.

Yuanta also breathed a sigh of relief and was no longer nervous.

At this time, Conan squatted in front of the plastic bag on the ground, reached out and opened the plastic bag, and asked: "Are you two the only ones in this building?"

"Yes, there are only two of us."

"But the empty lunch box in this plastic bag... This was just bought at noon today, and there are three lunch boxes in it?" Conan looked at the receipt of the convenience store in his hand and asked in confusion.

The thin man's eyes flashed with panic, and he immediately pointed at the fatter man next to him and explained with a smile: "Haha, this guy can eat two portions by himself~"

"Yeah, I can finish two portions of lunch in an instant!" The fat man patted his belly and responded.

After that, without waiting for Conan and the others to speak again, the two men continued:

"By the way, children, this place is forbidden to enter, you should get out quickly."

"Yeah, go home and do your homework quickly, if it's too late, your parents will be worried~"

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko and the other two immediately nodded and smiled: "Okay, we got it!"

Conan also turned and walked towards Mitsuhiko and the others, and after saying goodbye to the two men, he prepared to close the door.
