Selling Pokémon from Pirates
Chapter 397: This world is gradually becoming absurd
"Haha, I knew it."
Looking at the three little ones holding a comic book and giggling on the table, Conan couldn't help but reveal a silly smile.
Immediately, he stopped caring about the so-called "further study" of the three little ones, and turned around to choose the book he wanted to read.
After all, his rest time is not long.
According to the plan Bator set for him, he will start the next stage of training in ten days.
In the face of obvious training effects, although Conan will not resist training, of course he must take a good rest when he can.
However……
Just when he picked out a pure English reasoning book and was about to wash away his mental fatigue with the breath of the book...
A rapid alarm bell suddenly sounded from the window.
"Um!?"
Conan, who had a natural sense of alarm bells, suddenly turned his head, only to find that the three little ones who had brought him over were already lying next to the window.
"You guys, be careful!"
Seeing Yuanta pressing his big face against the glass and looking down, Conan quickly reminded him.
In the world of Conan at this time, technology was still stuck in the 1990s, and the glass used was only the most common and common type, which could be easily broken with a little force.
While talking, Conan also walked to the window, and together with the three little ones, they looked down.
Soon, a police car stopped at the entrance of Mihua Library, and a familiar figure of Conan stepped out from the police car.
"Officer Megure?"
Conan was suddenly startled.
But Ayumi, who was next to him, showed a sweet smile, raised her toes and said excitedly:
"It's a police car!? There shouldn't be any crime, right?"
"Did someone kill someone in the library?"
"…………"
Conan suddenly turned his head and looked at the little loli next to him.
How on earth did you say such cold words in such a lovely voice?
However, the appearance of Officer Megure still caught Conan's attention.
After all, as a member of the Metropolitan Police's Investigation Section 1, his appearance itself represented that the incident was unusual.
Thinking of this, Conan immediately jumped off the window sill and ran directly towards the elevator.
When the three children saw this, they quickly followed Conan's footsteps.
"Hey, Conan, where are you going!?"
Genta shouted behind Conan.
Several people quickly got on the elevator.
Then, just like in the original work, Conan and the others had to leave the elevator and start running down the stairs because the elevator was overweight.
With his advanced physical fitness, he even reached the first floor before the elevator.
Seeing that Officer Mumu was busy with a group of his men, Conan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he directly pulled over a familiar honest face and asked:
"Officer Takagi, what happened?"
"Hey...are you Conan next to Detective Bato?"
Takagi was suddenly stunned when he was pulled, but he didn't know what buff was triggered. As the inspection director of the First Investigation Section, he completely ignored the police department's confidentiality rules and directly informed Conan of the entire incident.
Under Takagi's explanation, Conan also understood the whole process of the incident.
A few days ago, a staff member of the Mihua Library disappeared without any reason, and no trace has been found so far.
Because this staff member has a strange habit, that is, before going home every day, he will use the landline phone of Mihua Library to call home.
Doing this every day is a blatant waste of company phone bills.
However, on the day he disappeared, his wife, the caller, did not receive a call from him at all.
Therefore, the caller believed that his husband must have been murdered in Mihua Library.
Um……
It sounds like there is no logic at all, but the police in Neon completely believed the video of the caller and determined that the person was killed in the library.
And what’s even more outrageous is…
People really were killed in the library.
All I can say is that in the world of Ke Xue, everything is possible.
After listening to Takagi's explanation, Conan's eyes flashed with a look of joy.
Looking at the busy police officers, he had a hunch...
If nothing else happens, these policemen will definitely return without success today!
As expected, the neon police did not disappoint Conan.
After dozens of people searched the entire library and still couldn't find the missing employee...
After Officer Megure said "Sorry for interrupting your work" to the library director, he also directly closed the team and began to investigate around the library.
However……
Conan, who did not miss any detail, could clearly see the joy flashing in the eyes of the library director after the police closed the team.
"Something's wrong! There's something wrong with this curator!"
Conan's spirit was suddenly shaken when he discovered this, and he began to think secretly in his heart.
…
…
At night.
The Mihua Library has not had any changes due to the arrival of the police today. It still closes on time at 5:30.
As employees went off work one after another, the lights in the entire Mihua Library disappeared and were shrouded in darkness.
But at this moment, four little heads suddenly popped out of the toilet of Mihua Library.
"Hey! Genta, you squeezed me!"
Mitsuhiko, who was pinned down by Genta, straightened up in dissatisfaction.
"Shh!!!"
Ayumi in front of them suddenly turned around and stretched out her finger to remind the two reckless guys.
Immediately, she turned around and looked at Conan beside her. With gleaming eyes, she took Conan's arm and shook it. Under the burning eyes of Gentai and Mitsuhiko, she asked:
"Conan, Conan, what should we do next?"
"…………"
Conan looked at the three little ones behind him speechlessly.
Obviously he told them to go home, but these three guys insisted on hiding in the library with him.
In order not to let him disturb his plan, Conan had no choice but to agree.
Without immediately answering Ayumi's question, Conan slowly walked to the elevator with the three little ones and stared at the elevator door.
As the strength of his body increases, his various senses are also greatly enhanced.
There were too many people in the morning and he hadn't noticed yet.
But now that the entire Mihua Library was empty, he immediately smelled a strange smell.
This smell is very familiar to him, a detective who travels to major crime scenes all year round.
That's the smell of dark blood and rotting corpses!!!
Nothing wrong!
It’s not that there are no corpses in Mihua Library!
But this body is hidden somewhere where no one can see it!
After looking back at the three little ones and confirming that they were the only ones around him, Conan was too lazy to run again, but switched the opening and closing mode of the elevator door.
His small hands were suddenly clasped in the gap of the elevator door, and the results of the training over the past month suddenly exploded!
squeak--
Amidst a harsh friction sound, Conan used his child's body to open the entire metal door of the elevator.
"Sure enough, there are benefits to exercising regularly!"
Seeing that he could easily do things that he could usually only ask Xiaolan to do, Conan's face suddenly showed a hint of joy.
At this time, the three little ones behind him ran over and looked at
Conan's operation made his eyes widen in shock.
Ayumi even let out a voice of exclamation.
"Wow~! Conan, you are so strong~"
But in the world of children, they don't think that Conan's strength is beyond the scope of human beings...
Just a sincere sigh.
"Cut, what! Let me eat three bowls of eel rice, and I can break it up!"
Seeing that the woman he liked actually praised other men, Yuantai immediately made sour words.
Only Mitsuhiko, whose IQ is closer to normal people, saw Conan doing this and asked:
"Conan, why did you suddenly open the elevator door!?"
"What?"
Conan smiled crookedly and said to Genta, who was the tallest among them:
"So, now you try pressing the up button of the elevator."
"Huh? Is this so dangerous?"
Looking at the elevator door being opened, Yuantai muttered, but he still stood up on tiptoes and pressed the button.
All of a sudden.
The sound of gears turning suddenly came from the dark elevator shaft.
The three little ones were puzzled and looked ahead attentively.
But soon...
Their faces turned pale!
Because a corpse with a very miserable appearance was slowly appearing in everyone's eyes as the elevator went up.
"That's right!"
Seeing the appearance of the corpse, Conan's mouth became even more crooked.
The detective's blood surges through his body.
Conan, who solved a murder case, could not suppress the desire for expression in his body.
While looking at the corpse, he explained to the three little ones:
"Remember that time in the morning?"
"There are seven people in the elevator, weighing 450kg."
"However, when we got into the elevator, the elevator's overweight alarm went off."
"Although there were exactly seven people in the elevator at that time, you must know... we are children. Even Genta, who is the heaviest, does not weigh more than 50 kilograms, which is far less heavy than a normal adult..."
"But even so, the elevator is still overweight."
"In other words, there are loads on top of the elevator that we can't see!"
Conan, who expressed his reasoning, seemed to be standing in the center of the stage, with his hands in his pockets and a cool expression.
The eyes of Ayumi next to her were shining like stars.
However, at this moment...
A gloomy voice suddenly came from the feet of Conan and others.
"What a wonderful reasoning!"
"!!?"
The three little ones who were shocked by the corpse suddenly shuddered when they heard this voice.
As the elevator continued to ascend, the owner of the voice also appeared in front of everyone.
It was a face full of indifference and death. Combined with the dim light in the elevator and the dim surrounding environment, it looked like a murderous maniac emerging from the ground.
The visitor turned out to be the manager of this library—Director Jinchuan.
At the same time, he is also one of the largest drug smugglers in Tokyo.
As a library director, he can secretly transport drugs to the library by purchasing books overseas every time.
Then, through some means, the drugs were hidden in the middle of the two rows of books.
Yes.
As a man in a high position and with a lot of experience in drug trafficking, he didn't know what was wrong with his head, but he chose to hide the drugs in a place where everyone could touch them.
The drugs were then discovered by a library staff member.
Director Jinchuan had no choice but to kill the man, hide him in the elevator shaft, and kill him.
Let's wait until things calm down before disposing of the body.
All I can say is...
If the neon police had any effect, Jinchuan would not be alive now.
Because a new batch of "goods" happened to be delivered today, Jinchuan quietly returned to the library at night when no one was around, preparing to hide the goods first.
Unexpectedly...
When he came here, he unexpectedly gained something unexpected!
"Children, it's so late for you, why don't you go home?"
Director Jinchuan walked out of the elevator, showed a kind expression, and asked Conan and others.
If it weren't for the steel pipe he was holding in his hand behind his back that was reflected on the elevator door in the faint light, someone might actually be deceived by his demeanor.
"Conan..."
When Ayumi and the other three saw the appearance of Director Tsukawa, they immediately trembled and stepped back.
When Conan saw the person coming, he didn't flinch at all. Instead, he raised his head, a pair of confident eyes shining behind his transparent lenses.
"Oh? It's so late and I have to go back to the library."
"I think you are the murderer, Director Tsugawa!?"
Conan's eyes released an aggressive gaze.
However, as a veteran drug smuggling and trafficking "businessman", how could he be frightened by Conan's eyes.
I saw him stepping out of the elevator and continuing to walk towards Conan.
As he walked, he smiled kindly and said:
"Hehehe, kid, what are you talking about..."
"Why can't I understand what a murderer is?"
Director Jinchuan continued to pretend to be dumbfounded, but the moment he approached Conan, he suddenly raised his hands, grasped the steel pipe tightly, and smashed it hard on Conan's head!
"Ah! Conan!!!"
Ayumi let out a scream.
Mitsuhiko was frightened and dumbfounded, and he also shouted a reminder to Conan.
Genta, who had always been clumsy, was as "reckless" as ever at this moment and ran forward to save Conan.
However……
Cang!!!!
A crisp metal collision sound suddenly echoed in the dim corridor.
The expressions on the faces of the three little ones and Director Jinchuan suddenly became very interesting at this moment.
And under their eyes...
I saw Conan raising his calf high, putting his foot above his head, and then easily stopped the steel pipe in Director Jinchuan's hand.
Even on the steel pipe, there is a curved mark the size of Conan's shoe.
"This...how is this possible!?"
Seeing such an incredible scene in front of him, Director Jinchuan's eyes suddenly flashed with fear.
He looked at the steel pipe in his hand, and then at Conan's slender legs and feet...
Suddenly, he felt that his world view seemed to have collapsed.
Conan, who blocked the blow, quietly lowered his leg.
Even though his physical fitness has only reached the peak of a normal human being, but because he has to learn Lanjiao, Bato also paid special attention to his leg skills.
Although it hurts after kicking a steel pipe or something, how could Conan let go of such a handsome scene!
Pretending is like the wind, always by my side!
Ignoring the pain coming from his feet, Conan raised his head, looked at Director Jinchuan with a smile and said:
"You really attack without hesitation!"
"To be so cruel to a child..."
"It seems that the death of that staff member was not an ordinary vendetta."
"Maybe he saw something he shouldn't have seen..."
"Am I right?"
"You...who are you!?"
Witness Conan kicking and bending a steel pipe
After regaining his strength, Director Jinchuan suddenly did not dare to launch a second attack and even began to retreat.
"My name is Edogawa Conan, and I am a detective!"
Looking at the curator who was forced to retreat, Conan pushed up his glasses, announced his name very handsomely, and then continued:
"I was doubting it in the morning..."
"Why are there so many foreign language books in the children's book section?"
"Just now I suddenly understood..."
"In those foreign language books, there should be a secret that Mr. Tsukawa, the curator, doesn't want to be known..."
"Am I right?"
Conan took a step forward and showed a devilish smile in Director Jinchuan's eyes.
For some reason, Director Jinchuan suddenly regretted not being caught by the police and taken away.
If that were the case, he would never encounter such a scene that directly shattered his outlook on life again!!!
