Conan: Naruto

"Ah, sorry!"

The startled Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi hurriedly looked back at the middle-aged man, gradually regained their composure, and apologized sheepishly:

"We'll put it back immediately!"

"Don't bother, just leave the book to me. You can go and read next to me."

The middle-aged man smiled gently, bent over, and took the book handed by Kudo Shinichi in a leisurely manner.

Dongfang Haoyue quickly pulled Shinichi to take three steps to the left, politely making room for the man.

The middle-aged man took a step forward, knelt on the ground, took out the cardboard box, put in the books, closed the box, closed the door of the wooden cabinet, and stood up happily holding the cardboard box.

suddenly!

"Hey!"

It was Moto Kojima’s polite call.

He stood on tiptoes in front of the wooden cabinet one meter to the left of Dongfang Haoyue, pressing his left hand on the top of the wooden cabinet, looking eagerly at Kudo Shinichi and Haoyue.

Moto Kojima raised his right hand straight out to the right and gestured anxiously:

"Conan, Haoyue, come and see!"

"what?"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at Moto Kojima and subconsciously expressed surprise.

"That is......"

Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko flew to the left of Kojima Genta and to the left of Yoshida Ayumi, with his hands folded to support the top of the wooden cabinet, his head lowered, and he looked downstairs through the window glass.

Mitsuhiko gestured excitedly:

"Police car, it's a police car!"

"It seems like something bad happened?"

Yoshida Ayumi raised her feet in the air, folded her hands to support the top of the wooden cabinet, and looked downstairs with curiosity.

next second.

"let me see!"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi ran to the right of Moto Kojima, jumped high in a uniform manner, supported the top of the wooden cabinet with their hands folded, looked downstairs, and discovered...

Four police cars were parked outside the gate of the library building. Officer Mu Mu, who was dressed in orange and had never changed forever, got out of the police car first, stepped onto the concrete floor, and ran straight to the library gate.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya excitedly described:

"Police officers entered the library!"

"A major case must have occurred in the library!"

The corner of Genta Kojima's mouth evoked an arc destined to show off the power of the young detective team, and he looked at the police car with confidence.

"curator!"

A beautiful woman wearing a red coat and yellow sweater rushed into the library with short steps.

She stopped far behind Dongfang Haoyue, to the left of the middle-aged man holding a cardboard box, and to the left of the curator. She spread her left hand in front of her collar and looked at the curator slightly panicked.

The beautiful woman reminded with an uneasy look:

"Police officers are downstairs."

"Ok?"

The curator who put down the cardboard box on the desk in front of him was slightly startled, a drop of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He looked at the beautiful woman in panic and quickly regained his composure.

The curator picked up the cardboard box calmly and walked towards the open door farther to the right rear of Dongfang Haoyue with quick and powerful steps.

Four seconds later.

Kudo Shinichi grabbed Dongfang Haoyue and jumped back to his original position, turned around, ran towards the door with rapid steps, and told without looking back:

"Haoyue and I will go check out the situation!"

"Conan, Haoyue, wait for us!"

The trio of elementary school students jumped back to their original positions and hurriedly chased Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi.

--------

Eight seconds later.

Third floor, corridor outside the elevator.

"wait wait wait!"

Kudo Shinichi dragged Dongfang Haoyue on the left and ran down the corridor. He was keenly aware that the curator was about to enter the open elevator door not far to the left with a cardboard box in his arms.

In the flash of lightning, Shinichi quickly glanced at the three slender young women standing in the elevator.

next second.

Kudo Shinichi locked his eyes on the young woman standing in front of the elevator switch on the left side of the door, wearing an open brown coat and a red sweater, and said politely and quickly:

"Auntie, please hold down the elevator door button. Thank you!"

"Oh."

The woman in brown clothes stared at Kudou Shinichi with some annoyance, and reluctantly reached out and pressed the elevator door button.

Shinichi dragged the helpless Dongfang Haoyue with one hand to his forehead without any scruples and ran into the elevator. He stopped in front of the curator who was facing the corridor. He turned to look at the corridor and took a few breaths.

At the same time, a trio of primary school students rushed over in a hurry.

After two seconds.

Ayumi Yoshida and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stepped into the elevator first, while Genta Kojima was still running in the corridor.

"drop."

It's the continuous sound of the elevator alarm.

Kojima Genta instantly stopped walking into the elevator and looked at the inside of the elevator at a loss.

Dongfang Haoyue looked around, his eyes locked on the small rectangular sign with black characters on a white background and in the middle of the stainless steel elevator wall [-] meters to the rear left, and reminded melancholy:

"The elevator is overloaded...!"

"It says it can seat up to seven people and the weight limit is 450 kilograms."

Kudo Shinichi turned his head to the left and rear, and meticulously explained the meaning of the sign.

He looked at the trio of primary school students in front of him who didn't understand what was going on, and seriously echoed:

"It's really overloaded."

"Let me count them first."

Genta Kojima retracted his gaze from Kudou Shinichi, pointed to the many members in the elevator one by one, and counted them word by word:

"One, two...seven, eight..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Moto Kojima looked at the four elementary school students excitedly, as if he had discovered a new world and admitted:

"The elevator is indeed overloaded!"

"Where is the need for Yuan Taishu... The elevator clearly sounded an alarm..."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stared at Genta Kojima expressionlessly.

Yuan Tai was about to refute.

"Hey, don't waste time!"

Dongfang Haoyue grabbed Kudo Shinichi with his right hand, pushed Ayumi Yoshida in front of him with his left hand, and pushed Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's Shinichi past Genta Kojima and ran to the stairs not far to the right.

Haoyue urged angrily:

"I'm still waiting to find out what Officer Megure wants when he comes here. Now I'd better go down the stairs!"

"Hey, hey!!"

Yoshida Ayumi and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko ran unsteadily in front of Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, and stopped them hastily:

"Too fast!!!"

"Ow!"

Dongfang Haoyue responded happily and slowed down slightly.

At this time, Kojima Genta, who was slightly slow to react and stayed on the spot, chased the group of four elementary school students who were descending the stairs, and asked urgently and loudly:

"Wait for me!!"

--------

after a while.

Lobby.

Officer Megure stood on the pure white tiles in the middle of the hall. While rummaging through the inner pocket of his jacket, he stared at the curator one meter in front of him and solemnly confirmed:

"Are you the director of the library?"
