Conan: When I Be Gin's Brother

After dealing with several members of the bandit group, Kurosawa Rin and Kaito became less nervous and walked toward the underground floor while chatting leisurely.

"cut"

Kaito curled his lips, "In the end, my bottom was clearly touched, but I have no idea who you are."

"Hongzi must have told you that I am Kaitou Kidd."

Kurosawa Rin paused. He knew that the reason why he knew Kaito's identity was because he was not from this world and knew the plot of the story. It was not what Koizumi Anko told him at all.

But he couldn't say this, and even if he did, no one would believe him, so he had no choice but to borrow Poxia Donkey and rely on Koizumi Hongzi for everything.

He smiled and nodded, "Yes, it was indeed Senior Hongzi who told me."

"I guess that's the case." Kaito said with a sure expression on his face, gritting his teeth: "Only someone with a high level of magic like her can find out from clues that I am Kaitou Kidd."

The corner of Kurosawa Rin's mouth twitched, and he suddenly didn't know which point in this sentence to complain about first...

There are still time-travelers like me who know about this, and Koizumi Anko doesn’t know magic at all...

Walking along the stairs until near the first floor, there seemed to be the sound of high heels clicking from the stairs on the underground floor.

Someone!

Are there any remaining bandits?

Kurosawa Rin and Kaito looked at each other, held their breath, stopped and waited for the man to approach.

The sound of heels hitting the tile floor was very clear in the quiet and deserted department store at night. After a few clicks, the people downstairs finally appeared in front of Kurosawa Rin and Kaito.

"Ah, it's very dangerous here, haven't you left yet?"

The person who spoke was wearing a red uniform and shorts, with a department store name tag on his chest. Looking at this somewhat familiar face, Kurosawa Rin immediately thought of this person.

It turned out to be the elevator lady in this department store. She was the one who helped me when I was carrying a lot of things and it was inconvenient to press the elevator button.

But...if the elevator lady doesn't go home after get off work, what is she doing here?

Also, how did she, a woman, break free from the rope and escape? If she escaped, what about the security guards who were tied up together? Why didn't they come out together?

Many doubts made Kurosawa Rin's heart slightly think that there must be something wrong with this woman, but...

He lowered his head and looked at his hands, which were still shaking slightly, with anxious eyes.

The battle just now was the limit of his sickly body. Whether it was accelerating and dodging when he rushed towards the cheater or cutting off the robber's arm with a banquet later, it was just a momentary burst that exhausted all his physical strength.

.

Up to now, the hand he had held the knife in was still trembling and it was difficult to move, and his arm had lost its strength. Although there seemed to be nothing wrong on the surface, it was just a pretense to hide it from Kaito.

Before Kurosawa Rin could say anything, Kaito saw that the person who came was not a robber. Kaito's tense nerves instantly relaxed and he replied without thinking: "It doesn't matter, we have dealt with those robbers. The top priority now is to make a phone call."

Call the police... that's right." Kaito thought of something, "Do you have a mobile phone with you?"

The elevator lady was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "No, but I know there is a public payphone on the first floor that should work."

Thinking that they were leading the way, the elevator lady naturally joined the two of them. However, Kurosawa Rin had always been suspicious and followed Kaito and the elevator lady, watching her in case she made any moves.

Robber, department store, elevator lady.

When these words are put together, they always seem familiar, but Kurosawa Rin just can't remember the specific plot.

Damn it, if you were still in the same state as in your previous life, you wouldn't have to worry about these things.

Kurosawa Rin scratched his hair with a headache.

From the front, Kaito felt very relieved and exposed his back to the suspicious elevator lady.

When they came to the coin-operated telephones, all the telephone lines here had been cut off. Although Kurosawa Rin had expected it, Kaito still lost a few coins because of this without knowing it.

"No, the phone lines here are all disconnected. You don't have to look at other places to know that they are like this." Kaito was dejected. He thought he could contact the police earlier and go home earlier.

"I think we still..." Kaito turned around and was stunned, "Hey, why are you all standing at the door and not coming in?"

The elevator lady cursed in her mind. It wasn't because the blond boy was too sensitive and refused to turn his back to her that she didn't find the opportunity to strike.

And the kid in front of me threw tear gas into the security room without caring about the feelings of himself and the hostages.

Forget about those bandits, they were tied there and choked to death by tear gas canisters.

Recalling the uncomfortable feeling of being persecuted by tear gas, the more the elevator lady thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't bear it. She was the real leader of the department store bandits. After suffering this kind of injustice, how could she swallow her anger and let go of these two people who had destroyed her?

Planning boy?

Can……

She secretly looked at Kurosawa Rin, who was also standing at the door but far away from her, feeling worried.

This kid has been guarding himself. If he doesn't take action, he may really have to let them go.

The elevator lady's eyes flashed with a stern look. She turned her back to Kurosawa Rin and took out a compact pistol from her handbag...

"Kaito! Rin!"

"Where are you?"

Koizumi Hongzi's voice suddenly sounded in the lobby on the first floor. The elevator lady was stunned and put the pistol back into her handbag again.

"It's Anko!" Kaito changed his previous dejection, looked at Kurosawa Rin, and followed Anko's voice.

Kurosawa Rin followed Kaito with a somewhat slow pace.

When they arrived at the door on the first floor, they realized that the door had been tightly closed when they entered just now.

"Anko!" Kaito shouted.

"Kaito!" Koizumi Hongzi's voice came from the platform on the second floor, "This place seems to be occupied by a bandit group. You haven't encountered any danger, have you?"

Kaito felt a little awkward, shouldn't we be asking this for you, a weak woman?

Ignoring these irrelevant matters, Kaito quickly replied: "We already know about this, and we also captured four bandits!"

Koizumi Hongzi's voice was solemn: "Only four? The robber I just met said..."

"...Besides the five robbers here, there should be a woman who helped them invade the mall."

woman?!!

The intermittent clues in my mind were instantly connected by this sentence.

"Not good!" Kurosawa Rin's pupils shrank.

Turn around and look.

He just didn't notice for a moment, but the elevator lady who was in front of him just now ran behind him and Kaito at some point.

There was a sinister smile on her face.

The muzzle of the black hole was pointed directly at him.
