Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 1729 Toyokawa’s Secret House

After reaching an agreement, everyone took action immediately.

Mouri Kogoro drove the rented car and took the two guys who were knocked unconscious to leave first, while Hanomiya Akira and others found the two people's car.

Mengyu used instruments to check the black Mazda by herself, and after confirming that no locator was installed on it, the few of them got into the car.

"Wear your disguise and try not to leave any traces of yourself in the car." Yu Gongming reminded.

"Understood!" Brother Kudo also responded solemnly.

When Yumiya Akira and Mengyu attended the charity dinner, they did not show their true colors. They put on makeup and wigs. Conan was already wearing a disguise during the operation of Jiumei Company in the morning, and he has not taken it off until now.

When the three people participating in this kind of action basically defaulted to wearing gloves, they also wore clothes that covered their skin as much as possible.

Therefore, as long as they pay a little attention, they will basically leave no biological traces for detection.

Yu Gongming inserted the key, glanced at the driver's seat, and after roughly familiarizing himself with the locations of various instruments, started the car and quickly drove away.

"I'll leave the route planning to you." Yu Gongming looked at Mengyu through the rearview mirror in the car.

"Well, just follow my instructions." Meng Yu replied with a smile.

…………

Half an hour later, everyone arrived near the first secret property.

After getting out of the car, Akira Hanamong looked up at the slightly old apartment in front of him and frowned slightly: "Toyokawa's house is just one of the apartments in this apartment, not the entire apartment?"

It's no wonder that Yu Gongming asked this question. The style of this apartment is really different from the previous villa.

"It can't be wrong." Meng Yu affirmed: "The account that paid for the house payment received a transfer slightly higher than the house payment not long ago. I followed the flow of funds and checked, and finally found a leather bag company. That company is actually controlled by a relative of Toyokawa."

"Even more interesting is that less than a month after the property was purchased, the company was deregistered."

"Oh?" Yu Gongming raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "It seems that Toyokawa doesn't want this house to be noticed..."

Conan also smiled slightly: "The more you want to hide it, the bigger the secret inside it is!"

"Then let's go and have a look!" Meng Yu also showed an interested expression.

"Yes!" Yu Gongming nodded slightly: "Conan, you are responsible for watching outside, Mengyu and I will go in."

"No problem!" Conan nodded without any dissatisfaction.

The situation in the apartment was unknown, so it would be too conspicuous for a child like him to follow.

After a simple division of labor, Conan found a place to hang out, while Yu Gongming and Meng Yu entered the apartment.

"His room is on the fourth floor." Mengyu introduced.

The two climbed up to the fourth floor and arrived at the innermost door. The door lock of the room was very consistent with the style of the apartment - at least it didn't look very advanced.

Meng Yu spread her hands: "It's not an electronic lock, I can only leave it to you."

"Okay, let me try, give me a light." Yu Gongming took out some tools and began to tinker with the lock under the light of Mengyu's flashlight.

Since he decided to fight against the organization, he has never relaxed in training his various abilities. Naturally, the practical skill of unlocking is also within the scope of training.

For this reason, he also took the time to go to Kuroba Kaito and ask the Kaito for advice.

Kuroba Kaito was initially reluctant, but in exchange for Hamamiya Akira doing him a favor within his ability, he agreed.

Akira Hanomiya had been self-taught for a period of time and had a strong learning ability. Under the guidance of Kuroba Kaito, his lock-picking skills improved by leaps and bounds, and he soon became incapable of being taught by Kuroba Kaito.

A minute later, with a click, Yu Gongming slowly opened the door.

"It looks unremarkable, but there is something inside." Yu Gongming commented in his heart.

The two of them entered the house silently without much communication and locked the door out of habit.

Yu Gongming also took out a flashlight and scanned the surroundings. He saw that the house was empty from the entrance to the living room, without any furniture, the floor was covered with dust, and more than one cluster of spider webs could be seen on the wall.

Yu Gongming suddenly frowned.

"This...has no one lived there at all? Or did someone get there first?" Meng Yu was also surprised.

Yu Gongming swept the flashlight towards the ground, observed it for a while, and said: "The dust on the ground is quite evenly distributed. There is no difference in some places where furniture may be placed. It should be because there was no furniture in the first place."

Meng Yu also frowned slightly when she heard this: "Tsk! Such heavy dust, it will be troublesome to clean up the traces after leaving."

Yu Gongming pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Since there is no way to clean up the traces, we can only distort the traces as much as possible."

"What to do?" Mengyu asked.

Akira Hanomiya explained: "Some professionals can roughly judge a person's height and weight through the shape and spacing of footprints, and what we have to do is naturally change the shape and spacing of our own footprints."

"I have practiced this, and it is not difficult to do this."

Mengyu blinked: "What about me? I haven't practiced before! One step or two steps is okay. If I want to enter the house to search, I may subconsciously resume my usual pace."

Yu Gongming smiled slightly: "Don't worry, we only need to move around the entrance."

"Eh? Why?" Mengyu was puzzled.

Yu Gongming smiled and said: "Think about it, if you hide a secret in the house, do you have to come back from time to time to check if there is anything wrong with the secret?"

Meng Yu was startled, and then nodded: "If it were me, I would definitely not be at ease if there really was such a place. I would have to come and visit regularly."

"Right?" Yu Gongming said with a smile: "The degree of dust accumulation on the ground can be determined. If you enter the room more than once to check the secrets, the route taken and the shape of the dust should be somewhat different from other places. For example, it will be different during a stampede. It’s compacted a little bit.”

"That's right!" Meng Yu also reacted and swept the flashlight towards the ground: "The dust on the ground in the entire living room is very loose, and there are no traces of being stepped on many times!"

"Yes, in comparison, the dust near the entrance is a bit uneven." Yu Gongming turned around slightly, swept towards both sides of the entrance, and even reached out to tap the walls on both sides.

Seeing this, Meng Yu followed suit and started knocking on the wall.

The two of them beat for a while, not even leaving the area around the ground where they were standing.

After a moment, the two stood up, Meng Yu showed hesitation: "Strange, could it be that we overlooked something?"

Yu Gongming also fell into thinking, ignored? They just knocked all over the walls and the ground on both sides, what else could they ignore?

No, wait a minute!

Yu Gongming suddenly turned his head and pointed his flashlight at the door behind him!

Looking at the wall above the door, which was slightly thicker than that of an ordinary apartment, Yu Gongming smiled.

It’s really... dark under the light!
