Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Zhu Xingda's identity is definitely not ordinary.

But no matter where this guy comes from, cooperating with him is the best course of action right now.

Furiya Ling glanced at him and said, "You go to the second floor and take a look. I'll go to the basement and then meet up on the first floor."

Akai Shuichi paused and said, "...That's a chemical laboratory. A more serious explosion or contamination could occur at any time. I suggest you leave it to professionals and don't enter rashly."

Fūya Rei sneered and ignored his words.

Akai Shuichi: "...Or, shouldn't you let a pawn like me do the search for this dangerous area?"

Furiya Ling sneered at him: "You talk too much, Mr. Moroboshi. Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Akai Shuichi looked deeply at Furutani Rei, said no more, and walked to the second floor.

If it was really an explosion in a chemical laboratory, the danger described by Moroboshi Daikou might indeed occur.

However, only at this time and place, only for the explosion caused by Fujiwara Yuto, Furuya Rei was confident that such a dangerous situation would never occur.

This is a wealthy residential area. If Fujiwara Yuto really causes a serious incident like chemical corrosion pollution here, once it is discovered that it is related to Santa Felina, it will have a huge negative impact on their business.

For Rei Furuya, this was a perfect excuse that he had been waiting for.

In this way, he could get the Metropolitan Police Department to intervene, completely shut down Santa Felina, and order them to hand over the sample of the beauty serum.

Would Fujiwara Yuto make such a low-level mistake?

impossible.

As for the possibility that the other party set a trap in the chemical laboratory to kill him directly?

If this guy really wanted to kill him, he should have done it long ago with countless opportunities before, instead of drawing a little turtle on his face with a marker like a prank!

Therefore, Fūya Rei was absolutely certain that there would definitely not be the kind of danger in the basement that Moroboshi Dai had imagined.

However, having said that, Fūya Rei still went to the bathroom first, wet a towel and covered his mouth and nose with it before entering the basement.

Under the light of the flashlight, the basement was a mess.

Broken experimental equipment was scattered all over the floor, and glass fragments were flying everywhere.

Because of the power outage, the ventilation equipment in the basement stopped working, and the smoke and dust were still filling the room and had not completely dissipated.

Furiya Rei tried to remove the wet towel, and what he smelled was indeed not the pungent smell of chemicals, but an overly strong aroma mixed with some alcohol and gunpowder.

Judging from the smell alone, this place doesn't look like a dangerous chemical laboratory, but rather a warehouse of high-end perfumes with overturned shelves...

Fūya Rei was unable to discern what this complex fragrance contained, and he sneezed twice, choking himself, and quickly covered his nose with a towel.

The power interface in the corner was charred black, with the socket and wires exposed and sparking.

It can be confirmed that this is the center of the explosion, and it was obviously disguised as an accident caused by circuit overload.

There were documents and papers scattered all over the floor.

Furutani Rei picked them up and took a look. They were all brochures on beauty products and restaurant takeout flyers, etc., completely useless.

Fōgaya Rei continued to search the house carefully with the flashlight, but did not find anything else worthy of attention.

Not to mention the sample of the beauty serum he was looking forward to, there wasn't even a complete container here; it was completely destroyed.

So Furuya Rei could only leave in disappointment.

When we returned to the first floor, Shuichi Akai just came down from the second floor with empty hands.

Seeing that the beam of light from Fūya Rei's flashlight fell on his hands and coat pockets, Akai Shuichi directly searched his pockets in front of him to show that he had nothing.

"There is no safe in the upstairs bedroom. I gave it a cursory search but found nothing of note."

After saying that, Akai Shuichi sniffed and smelled the smell on Furuya Rei's body.

"Isn't the underground a chemical laboratory, but a perfume blending factory?"

"almost."

Fūya Rei answered briefly and quickly scanned the surrounding arrangements.

After all, Akai Shuichi had been here once and had already memorized the layout of the place in his mind, so he walked straight to the door of the study.

"This is the study."

If I had known there was a study room earlier, I should have focused on it first!

If we were to guess where the secrets are hidden in this villa, it would definitely be the study or the laboratory.

Fūya Ling frowned: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Akai Shuichi was not angry, but said calmly: "Because I must obey your command first, Master Bourbon."

Furuya Rei: ...Tsk!

The two men entered the study. Shuichi Akai reached out and fumbled on the wall and found the switch, but after pressing it twice, the light still didn't come on.

"It should be the explosion just now that destroyed the power line."

Akai Shuichi pointed to several locations with his flashlight and said, "This is the desk. There is a computer on the desk and a small safe next to the desk. This is the bookcase. I'm not sure if there is anything hidden there. Which side are you responsible for?"

Fūya Rei walked directly to the desk, opened the drawer and checked it while casually asking, "How do you know so much?"

"The study door was open when I came here yesterday, and I observed it from the doorway."

"Didn't find a chance to come in and search?"

No, Mr. Fujiwara is very strict."

As Akai Shuichi checked the bookcase, he reported his search results casually: "No photos, no ornaments that symbolize faith, no albums, no folders. Drugs and medicine, genetic technology, anatomy, forensic medicine... all books of these types, most of them look new... no secret compartments found... really clean. How about yours?"

"The computer can't be opened. Half of the drawer is empty, with all sorts of odds and ends, nothing useful... The safe is open, but there's nothing inside. Fujiwara Yuto may have packed up everything he had in there and taken it away."

Akai Shuichi came over and scanned the desk twice with his flashlight, confirming Furuya Rei's judgment: "That means we found nothing. I heard sirens. It's time to go."

After saying that, Shuichi Akai walked out of the study without hesitation.

Fūya Rei could only follow in silence and return along the same route.

The stinky sweet smell in the basement was slowly spreading out.

But why does there seem to be a hint of burning smell mixed in with the fragrance?

Wait, this smell isn't coming from the basement, it's...

Fūya Rei suddenly stopped and turned around: "There is another place I need to confirm."

"Oh?"

Shuichi Akai also turned back, and when he saw Furiya Rei pick up half a piece of paper from the kitchen sink, he immediately realized what was going on and ran to recheck the bathrooms and toilets upstairs and downstairs.

When he returned to the kitchen door, there was already a police car parked at the main entrance of the villa.

Seeing Shuichi Akai coming back, Furiya Rei casually put the results of his search into his coat pocket.

"gone."

Akai Shuichi followed him out the back door: "According to your idea, I also found something interesting under the bathtub in the upstairs bathroom. Do you want to exchange information?"

Furiya Ling paused.

"…Let's get out of here first."
