(づど)

While thinking, Honda Ryohei quietly approached from behind the back of Mori Ran under the rustling sound of water, and then silently raised his fist.

Ran Maori's attention is still on the faucet.

Just as she was about to turn it off, she suddenly felt something slapped in her calf - according to experience, it was a bit like a cat's claw.

Ran Maori turned around in confusion, not seeing a cat on the ground, but saw a strong man behind him, catching her with a hideous face.

“!!!”

...

The same building, in the basement.

Police and detectives are trying to find the suspect "Ryohei Honda".

At this time, through the layers of cement floors, a scream with extremely penetrating power suddenly rang upstairs.

Although it was very far apart, Conan quickly distinguished successfully. He was shocked: "Xiaolan!"

At the hearing of this terrified scream, Police Instinctively had a bad premonition. He quickly rushed upstairs, remembering something, looking at Jiang Xia who was also rushing up:

"'Xiaolan' is the high school girl who is with you, why did she enter the building? She looks pretty well-behaved, but she is also wandering around. Can you guys be more at ease? You know, that dangerous Honda Ryohei may be hiding in this building!"

Jiang Xia looked very innocent: "I think you should have sent someone to seal the building just now. After all, Xiaolan is not a detective. She may not know that it is not allowed to enter here, so when she saw that we were gone, she wanted to come in to find us."

At this time, Jiang Xia's cell phone suddenly shook and someone called.

While climbing the stairs with a group of people, he took out his cell phone and looked at it. He found that the caller was Ran Maori, so he picked it up.

"Jiang, Jiangxia..."

Maori Ran's voice trembled and he sounded very scared: "I just wanted to go into the building to find the friends, but... but I met a terrible man on the third floor."

This phone is a little bit off when using it everyday.

At the time of Inspector Asa, who was next to him, felt a thrill when he heard her words, and realized that the bad premonition had come true.

He grabbed Jiang Xia's cell phone and leaned into his ear: "Don't panic! Tell the person who coerces you to call and tell him not to hurt the hostages, everything is easy to discuss!"

Maori Ran said cowardly: "But..."

With the full speed of a group of adults and the double speed of some children with short legs, the distance between the three floors was fleeting, and while they were talking, they had already rushed to the corridor on the third floor.

As soon as he entered the corridor, Inspector Yasa swept to both sides with a serious look on his face, and saw that one of the corridors was standing...

Two people stood and lie down.

Ran Mori was holding his cell phone, pacing back and forth anxiously.

Suddenly, she noticed a group of people rushing towards her, and she was startled. When she saw the person clearly, Ran Naner of Maori put away his cell phone and lowered his head, as if he was a little guilty.

“…”

Inspector Asa ran to the front with inertia and stopped in a daze.

He looked at the intact high school girl who had not even scratched her skin at all, turned his head and looked at the treacherous and stunning Japanese man on the ground next to him, and finally his eyes fell on the wall with a spider-like crack behind the man.

Soon, the seriousness and anxiety in his eyes gradually became a little confused.

...This scene seems to be different from what he thought. What is the promised plot of "a female high school student accidentally entered the crime scene and was held hostage by the gangsters hiding in it. The police were forced to fight wits and courageously with the gangsters, and finally bravely rescued the hostages"? Why, why did the gangster suddenly lie down?

Haibara Ai pulled out the hood and looked at the scene in front of him: "..." No matter how many times he saw this scene, it was a bit difficult to get used to. The main reason was that Miss Maori looked gentle and delicate... Who would have thought that she would accidentally destroy several walls every few days?

Jiang Xia seemed to get used to it: "Is it okay, what's wrong?"

When Ran Maori saw the people he knew, he was much calmer.

She trotted to Jiang Xia and found a little security. Then she turned around and pointed to the man lying on the ground from afar:

"I just wanted to go into the building to find you, but when I reached the third floor, I suddenly saw a fire extinguisher falling out of the water room here. I thought you were investigating the case here, but I accidentally bumped into the fire extinguisher, so I came over to check the situation. Who knew that after I entered the door, I suddenly saw... Seeing him reaching out to pounce at me, I was really scared, so I accidentally kicked him."

Inspector Asa: "..." sounds miserable and innocent. But...

He glanced at the broken wall next to him, and the tragic scene of the burly man on the ground being kicked by Ran Mori, flying back like a cannonball, hitting the wall with a thunderous sound, and then sliding to the ground.

...No wonder when I was underground just now, I always felt something shocked. He almost thought someone fell from the building again, but fortunately it wasn't.

Although there were many jokes to vomit, when I saw the female high school student with fear in front of me, Inspector Asa tried to maintain a little gentlemanly demeanor: "Don't panic, Miss Maori, if the situation is really as you said, then you are considered as self-defense. But if there is another time, uh, I hope you can control the strength."

Jiang Xia explained to her cute classmate: "In fact, Xiaolan has always been very sensible in her next move. She will only effectively control those criminals who want to do evil and will not really hurt them."

Inspector Yasa: "..." He has a proper approach, so he doesn't have any steps?

Next to him, Conan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ran Mori was not taken as a hostage.

But soon, his keen observation made him suck back that breath - why did this gangster get ragged and dressed in disheveled clothes? It was more like being trampled by Jiang Xia than being knocked down by one foot. Xiaolan couldn't have learned something bad from Jiang Xia...

His heart skipped a beat, but soon, Conan rationally ruled out this possibility - the dust mark on the gangster's body did not seem to be stepped out, but more like it was stained with rain and dust. In addition, there seemed to be some traces of friction on his clothes.

Rain, stains, friction...

With several clues overlapping, Conan immediately remembered the trace of the drag that extended from the balcony to the indoors that he had just seen in the office of the fallen building.

...

Inspector Asa comforted Mori Ran a few words, before his eyes struggled to leave the striking wall and looked at the pitiful gangster who was covered in dust on the ground.
