"Ah~, looking at them, they probably don't have any valuable clues." Xingchen leaned lazily against the car door, yawned, and looked at the three little ones circling around the periphery.

"They have already gone around so many times, maybe it's time to take a break." Huibara Ai muttered to herself as she thought of the previous incident in the castle.

"I think so too. I wonder how Conan's situation is going." Xingchen leaned against the car door, turned his head to look at the magnificent castle next to him, and murmured in a low voice.

On the other side, among the people who were visiting, Qian Jiangyi found an excuse and hurried out.

He ran to the lady's room and kept looking anxiously for the treasure behind the photos hanging on the wall.

After his unremitting efforts, he finally found a safe embedded in the wall. He then quickly took out professional lock-picking tools and tried to open the safe door that was full of traces of time.

With a click, his eyes lit up instantly and he opened the safe with excitement on his face. The moment it was opened, the glittering golden jewels inside were revealed and he couldn't wait to reach in.

With just a "click", the hand was locked firmly on it.

Qian Jiang tried his best to pull his hand out, but he couldn't. At this moment, a subtle sound of a mechanism was heard.

He looked up in panic and saw a hole slowly opening up in the ceiling.

Several swords flashing with cold silver light fell straight down from the ceiling, and suddenly he let out a shrill scream.

When the others heard the noise, they hurried in.

As soon as they came in, they saw Qian Jiangyi slumped on the ground, gasping for breath, with a sword only one centimeter away from him.

"What on earth is going on!" Kogoro Mori exclaimed loudly when he saw this scene.

"Eighty years ago, Master Xiyi designed an anti-theft device."

"There are other mechanisms inside the castle, so please be careful." Mr. Sawabe took out a key from his pocket slowly and said as usual, then opened the device that locked Qian Jiangyi's hand.

"In other words, please do not act on your own." Shiratori Renzaburo walked over and carefully searched his backpack, which was full of tools used for theft.

Things like a hand saw, a small electric drill, etc.

"You only need a flashlight." Shiratori Renzaburo threw a flashlight to Qian Jiangyi, and asked Mr. Sawabe to collect the other things and return them to him after the expedition. Of course, inviting him to visit the police station after returning them would also be a good choice.

When Conan saw these things, he couldn't help but think of the ancient castle.

Generally speaking, these castles hide mysterious secret passages.

"Hey, does this castle have a basement?" Conan asked curiously, holding his hands in his pockets and looking up at Mr. Sawabe.

"No." Mr. Sawabe shook his head without hesitation.

"Is there a room for my great-grandfather on the first floor?" Conan asked in a different way.

"There is indeed an office." Mr. Sawabe said after thinking for a moment.

Then, Mr. Sawabe led everyone out of the room and came to Kiichi's office room.

Mr. Sawabe gently opened the door, welcomed everyone in and said, "Here are photos of the master and some of his photographic works."

"Everyone, feel free to take a look around."

After circling around, Conan turned to look at Kosaka Natsumi and asked curiously, "Ms. Natsumi, where is the photo of your great-grandmother?"

"There's not a single photo, so I don't know what my great-grandmother looked like." Natsumi Kosaka walked forward and bent down to say to Conan.

"Eh~" Conan was very surprised why there was only Mr. Kiichi's.

"Hey, this man is Rasputin." Qian Jiang pointed at the photo on the wall and said loudly.

After hearing this, Siruov-Chiennikov walked over quickly, took a look and said, "Yes, there is his signature on it."

"J. Rasputin"

"J. Rasputin." Conan heard this and wondered where he had heard it before.

"Dad, who is Rasputin?" asked Mao Lilan curiously.

"Well." Maori Kogoro was embarrassed for a moment, racked his brains and thought for a while before saying, "I only know that he is an unforgivable villain."

When Pu Si Qinglan heard this, she silently looked at Maori Kogoro.

"He was also known as the evil monk Rasputin. He was also the culprit who caused the demise of the Romanov dynasty. He once held power, but was later killed by his royal relative, Duke Yous."

"His body was found in the river with a dented skull and one of his eyes gouged out."

"Hmm!" Kogoro Mouri lit a cigarette while listening.

"Mr. Qian, I think it is more important to find the eggs right now." said Shiratori Renzaburo.

"Huff." Maori Kogoro took a puff of cigarette and exhaled it. He put down his hand with the cigarette between two fingers, turned his head to look at Shiratori Renzaburo and said, "That's right."

"Where should I start looking for such a big house?"

Conan looked at the cigarette in Kogoro Mouri's hand. The ash floated up for a while before falling down.

Then he looked down at the ground, and Conan instantly thought of the tunnel. Only in the tunnel could air flow up from below.

"Uncle, lend it to me." Conan snatched the cigarette and said, instantly forgetting what Xingchen had told him.

"What are you doing?" Kogoro Mouri said with his clenched fists. If he didn't give a reasonable explanation, his ruthless iron fist would fall again.

"There's wind coming up from below."

"There may be a secret basement down there." Conan moved the cigarette closer to the ground, and sure enough, the unburned cigarette fragments floated up before falling down.

This was exactly what he expected.

"What?!" Everyone looked at Conan in surprise.

"So that's what I mean." Conan said as he put out the cigarette in the ashtray. He didn't realize that the ashtray was handed to him by Mouri Ran.

Conan's action made Mao Li Ran suspicious again, thinking that he was probably pretending last time.

"Mr. Kiichi, who likes to make mechanisms, must have hidden the switch." Conan lowered his head and began to look for it carefully.

"It must be hidden somewhere!" Conan saw a groove on the wall, reached out and opened it, revealing something that looked like a calculator.

There are many buttons on it, and each button has Russian words on it.

"What is that!" said Kogoro Mouri in surprise.

Shiratori Renzaburo continued, "Those should be Russian letters."

"Can this be used to open the door of the secret room?" Qian Jiang guessed with his face flushed with excitement.

"There should be a password." Conan said thoughtfully, stroking his chin.
