When the scream came, Shiratori Rensaburo and others ran towards the direction of the sound.
Shuji Tsushima and others only accelerated their pace a little.
When they arrived, they saw a man with his wrists cuffed by a mechanism, squatting on the ground with countless swords above his head.
Those swords hang down from the hidden compartment above, and there are chains strung on the handles, so they can be put away at any time.
"This is a mechanism designed by Mr. Kiichi. There are similar mechanisms in many places in this castle. Please don't act without authorization." Butler Sawabe took out the key and saved the man's handcuffed wrist.
Gan Jiangyi was extremely frustrated when he was caught trying to steal something.
Shiratori Rensaburo rummaged through the opponent's bag and finally threw a flashlight to the opponent.
"You only need to use this." Shiratori Rensaburo said coldly, confiscating the other party's theft tools.
Gan Jiang looked at the small flashlight in his hand with an ugly expression, but did not dare to resist.
"Since there is a mechanism, does this castle have a basement?" Edogawa Conan asked curiously.
"This, I don't know, there shouldn't be any..." Butler Sawabe thought for a moment and answered.
"Is there anything special about it?" Edogawa Conan continued to ask curiously.
"A special place...Does the master's study count?" Butler Sawabe thought for a moment and said.
"Can you take us to see it?" Edogawa Conan asked.
Butler Sawabe glanced at Natsumi Koita and saw that she still had a sweet and ladylike smile and had no intention of refusing, so he nodded.
"Please come with me." he said.
He followed the others closely along the way, as if he was afraid of encountering some mechanism again.
There is nothing special about Kōita Kiichi's study, except for the many black and white photos hanging on the walls.
Most of them are from Kōita Kiichi himself, but there are also those from him and others.
For example, one of the photos is of him and a man, and there is a signature on the photo.
It looks like a man's name.
"Rasputin? Is that Grigory Yefimovich Rasputin in the photo?" Atobe Keigo looked at the figure in the photo and said.
"I think he is the only person closely related to the Romanov dynasty named Rasputin." Akashi Seijuro answered Atobe Keigo's words.
"Who is Rasputin?" Hiroki Sawada subconsciously looked at Shuji Tsushima.
Many people present also asked in confusion.
"During the Romanov dynasty, he was just a guy who was good at flattering the emperor. The reason why the Romanov dynasty was destroyed was because of that guy, so Rasputin was also called the monster monk." Kenichi mocked contemptuously. said.
Pu Siqinglan glanced at the other party.
Atobe Keigo and Akashi Seijuro were lost in thought at this moment.
"There may be something wrong with our previous guess." Keigo Atobe said in a low voice.
"If it involves Rasputin, the reliable truth is somewhat different from what we guessed." Akashi Seijuro agreed with Atobe Keigo's statement.
They had previously speculated that Shi Kaobing might be a descendant of the Romanov dynasty's royal family, so he was so obsessed with the Romanov dynasty's treasures and the egg of memories.
But the appearance of Rasputin now made them aware of another problem.
"When Rasputin died, his right eye was gouged out." Feng Jingye said.
"It is said that people at that time believed that Rasputin's right eye had a special ability to attract people, so they had his right eye gouged out just in case." Keigo Atobe's voice was low.
"And Shikaobing specializes in shooting people's right eyes..." Akashi Seijuro also said.
At first they thought it was just the other person's hobby. Famous killers all have more or less special habits to prove that the deceased was killed by them.
So they didn't think too much about the fact that Shi Kaobing had his right eye pierced, but once they thought about the history of Rasputin having his right eye gouged out...
"We probably guessed wrong." Akashi Seijuro shook his head.
"Shi Kaobing has nothing to do with the Romanov royal family. He may be a descendant of Rasputin. He may have punched his right eye in memory of Rasputin, but it is difficult to guess why the other party specifically targeted the treasures of the Romanov dynasty.
It's..." Atobe Keigo touched his tear mole and said while thinking.
If you are not a descendant of the royal family, it will be impossible to take back your family's property and memories.
In this way, it is difficult to think of the other party's reason for doing this. After all, these treasures have nothing to do with Rasputin.
The other party may simply be greedy for wealth.
"Sure enough, without enough clues, the reasoning can easily go wrong." Keigo Atobe said in a lazy voice.
"But except for the other party's true identity, in fact, our guess was not wrong in general." Akashi Seijuro said in a gentle voice.
"Pu Siqinglan is Shi Kaobing and a descendant of Rasputin." Feng Jingye said calmly and calmly.
"Why didn't you react at all? You didn't say anything when we were guessing before, and you don't say anything now. Could it be that you already knew the answer, but you watched us make wrong deductions?" Keigo Atobe
He frowned and looked at Tsushima Shuji aside.
"Well... reasoning itself is prone to errors, and the detective's conclusion will also change as clues appear..." The black-haired boy with wild eyes answered the question and changed the subject.
So the three people understood that Tsushima Shuji had indeed known the answer for a long time, but he watched silently as their reasoning was wrong.
"Then do you know the reason why she did this?" Atobe Keigo asked.
"The reason? Maybe it's greed." Shuji Tsushima said casually.
Do you think Rasputin has a better relationship with the Romanov royal family, so the royal family’s wealth should be kept by Rasputin’s descendants?
Are you kidding, such a weird reason...
In the final analysis, it's just because of greed.
And speaking of qualifications...
This lady is much more qualified than a descendant of Rasputin.
After all, he is a true descendant of the royal family.
Descendants of Princess Maria.
"Where is the secret room?" Edogawa Conan looked around with a serious expression.
He fell into a state of reasoning madness again, as if there was no one around.
Mao Lilan's eyes were complicated and melancholy.
"Miss Ran, what kind of person do you think Shinichi-senpai is?" Shuji Tsushima asked.
"Xinyi?" Mao Lilan, who had been immersed in her own thoughts, came back to her senses. Faced with such a question, she was a little confused.
"Shinichi is an obsessive-compulsive person with perfectionism and a heavy sense of responsibility..." She said this without knowing what she thought of.
"Is he so responsible for everyone?" Tsushima Shuji seemed to be just curious.
Mao Lilan fell silent.
Are all the new pairs so responsible?
In fact, there are still priorities.
"Having too much responsibility for a person means that you have extraordinary feelings for that person, right?" Shuji Tsushima asked thoughtfully, as if he was simply interested in this issue.
Mao Lilan's expression became far-fetched, and after a while, she raised her smile.
