Conan: Naruto

"That's it."

Xiaolan nodded without doubt, straightened up, held Dongfang Haoyue and Kudou Shinichi one by one, stepped forward lightly, and looked back and forth at the cute and cute Haoyue and Shinichi.

Xiaolan smiled gently and warned:

"You must tell me the next time you see that gentleman. I want to thank him properly."

"Uh-huh!"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi tilted their heads and looked at Xiaolan, choosing to agree without any hesitation.

--------

5 minutes later.

Seventh floor, corridor.

Xiaolan held Dongfang Haoyue in her left hand and Kudo Shinichi in her right hand, walking on the cold tiles with an uneasy expression.

Shinichi, who was immersed in thinking, lowered his head slightly, looked ahead without focusing on anything, and calmly analyzed in his heart:

"Xiaolan mentioned the maze just now. I think... there should be a shortcut to the TV station that is unknown to everyone, that is...

An imaginary road that can travel between the conference room and the studio in 4 minutes. "

Dongfang Haoyue put his left hand in his pocket, raised his head and glanced at the surveillance camera installed on the ceiling of the corridor, and thought casually in his heart:

"First of all, rule out the possibility of Matsuo Takashi taking the elevator to go up and down the stairs. After all, the elevator is equipped with surveillance and outsiders can take it at any time.

Secondly, excluding the long corridor that must be passed from the seventh floor to the sixth floor, it is also equipped with surveillance and has more passers-by.

In this way...the only section that has the shortest distance, is not subject to surveillance, and is unlikely to be seen...is the staircase from the ninth floor to the seventh floor. "

Dongfang Haoyue thought of this, and looked sharply at the steps leading to the seventh floor two meters ahead to the right.

next second.

"Eh?!"

Xiaolan, whose thoughts were wandering, suddenly stopped, looked around in a panic, and said with some fear:

"I...I've arrived at a strange place again..."

"Don't worry~"

Dongfang Haoyue raised her head to look at Xiaolan, and comforted her with a smile:

"With us by Sister Xiaolan's side, Sister Xiaolan will definitely not encounter ghosts~!"

"Ah...um...!"

Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, looked at Dongfang Haoyue with an increasingly uneasy expression, and said with a horrifying fantasy in her heart:

"What ghosts like to eat most...are children like Haoyue with tender skin and tender flesh..."

Dongfang Haoyue suddenly felt horrified, and an icy air arose spontaneously.

He looked around in extreme panic, trying his best to find the source of the strange aura, and finally looked at the pale-faced Xiaolan with fear.

Dongfang Haoyue's little hand gently placed on Xiaolan's left hand, feeling the coolness transmitted by Xiaolan, her body stiffened, and she said with trembling fear in her heart:

"Such...such a terrifying mysterious aura...

What is Xiaolan thinking...I...as the strongest ninja, how can I feel scared..."

The thought just fell.

Kudo Shinichi's eyes were fixed on the warehouse one meter ahead on the left, with a door plate with the words "Seventh Warehouse" hanging above the door.

Without hesitation, he dragged Xiaolan, who was thinking there was a ghost here and there a ghost there, and rushed towards the warehouse door.

"ah!!"

Xiaolan was frightened.

She was forced to drag Dongfang Haoyue to follow Kudo Shinichi to the left, looked at Shinichi in panic, and called out hastily:

"Conan!"

Following Xiaolan's tender cry, Dongfang Haoyue, who was immersed in fear, suddenly came back to his senses. He looked up at the door number of the warehouse that was getting closer and closer, and analyzed with surprise in his heart:

"The seventh warehouse?

Could it be that the key clues to solving this case are located here?

Well, it’s very possible!

Didn’t Detective Mori hint before that we leave the crime scene~? "

At the same time, Kudo Shinichi, who was parked outside the warehouse gate, ignored Xiaolan for the time being.

Shinichi stood on tiptoes, reached for the door handle with his right hand, turned it gently, and cautiously pushed the door open.

He dragged Xiaolan with his left hand and stepped into the spacious warehouse where the bright moonlight shined through the glass window far in front of the door.

Kudo Shinichi stopped one meter inside the door and calmly glanced at the spotless and slightly dim warehouse stacked with numerous debris.

Dongfang Haoyue stopped on the left side of Xiaolan on the left side of Xinyi, looked around the warehouse seriously, and commented seriously in his heart:

"Although the items are a bit messy, there is not much dust. Someone must have cleaned the warehouse recently."

"This...where is this..."

Xiaolan, who had not yet figured out the situation, held Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi's small hands with both hands, looked at the wooden cabinets and wooden boxes stacked on the left and right sides of the warehouse with shudder, and whispered in a frightened voice:

"So dark...so scary..."

The voice did not fall.

Kudo Shinichi let go of Xiaolan without any hesitation, ran calmly to the inside of the left-right movable glass window, and jumped onto the shorter rectangular wooden box leaning against the window.

Shinichi pushed the unlocked window completely to the right, grabbed the window edge with both hands, looked downstairs, and gradually fell into a state of thinking.

Dongfang Haoyue saw that Kudou Shinichi was looking so seriously, so he decisively let go of Xiaolan, jumped to Shinichi's left, pulled the window edge with both hands, lowered his head and looked downstairs, and found...

Directly below and far away is the memory room on the fourth floor that belonged to the crime scene. You can still see the broken glass windows with large blood stains.

"New One."

Dongfang Haoyue leaned into the ear of Kudo Shinichi, who was frowning, and quietly asked for advice in a low voice:

"Can the prisoner use a rope to climb down and sneak into the conference room through the window?"

"The probability is almost zero."

Kudo Shinichi stared at the broken glass window below and explained in a calm voice:

“The victim was coerced by the prisoner to retreat to the window. If the prisoner really sneaked into the conference room through the window, the victim should retreat to the door.

Moreover, after committing the crime, the prisoner definitely did not want his appearance and body shape to be seen by people and surveillance, so he would have to use a rope to climb back to the warehouse. "

"Oh...that would be even more of a waste of time..."

Dongfang Haoyue nodded belatedly and looked at the glass window of the conference room with a confused expression.

During this period.

"You...you..."

Xiaolan stared blankly at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudou Shinichi, who were in perfect harmony. She somehow forgot her fear, and for a while, she had the thought that I shouldn't be here, should be outside.
