Conan Moslin

Chapter 206: A Night Tour of the Ocean of Books (5) Switch

The elevator's soundproofing was fairly good, so the sounds echoing from the elevator shaft were intermittent, and only when the elevator was completely quiet could one barely hear a few words.

Touch by mistake...accidentally...no need to use...

But just a few words were enough to make Conan alert.

He looked at Jun Aso: "That man wanted to trap you in the elevator. What did he do?"

Hearing Conan's words, the children except Haibara all looked at her.

Their eyes were full of curiosity.

Aso Jun was in so much pain in the first few minutes after the fall that she could hardly move, but she quickly recovered her mobility, except for her arms which were still weak.

She barely raised her arm for Huibara to check and kept her mouth shut.

"..."

The children continued to look at her, their eyes full of longing.

"..."

Aso Jun felt that she couldn't continue to remain in this stalemate.

"You guys, stop looking at me like that!"

She soon couldn't resist the child's eye attack and dumped out everything she saw today in a concise and concise manner.

Mitsuhiko: "So... the people in the library hid something suspicious in the library, and you found it, big sister?"

"So, those two people we met on the third floor just now...are they here to trade?"

Conan muttered quietly, pinching his chin.

The atmosphere had just begun to deviate from this stagnant state, but was soon broken by Huihara: "Sister Aso, there's nothing wrong with your arm. It's just dislocated."

Haibara Ai felt no psychological burden in calling a girl who was one year younger than her "sister".

But what she said was obviously not like that of a child.

"Do you want to reset it now? We can probably try it together."

Aso Jun's eyes turned horrified: "...Is my bone really broken?"

Huiyuan Ai's expression remained unchanged: "No, but it will hurt."

"..."

"bring it on."

……

There was a long gap between the time when Jun Aso and the detective team were trapped in the elevator and the time when she was taken out of the elevator by three dealers.

This period of time was enough for Jun Aso to reattach his dislocated left arm with the help of several children, send the children out of the elevator, and take over the mobile phone from Haibara. He contacted Kuria when the inner door of the elevator was open.

Opening the inner door is very simple, you just need to know how to unlock it.

Kuroba Kuriyasu was not surprised that he received a call from Haibara or Conan at this time.

Although Aso Jun's lock-picking skills are not very proficient, there is Conan, the Hawaiian know-it-all, in the elevator, so there is no need to worry about such things.

Aso Jun rubbed his left arm, held the phone between his shoulders, and spoke to Li An in a low voice about the situation.

"Sister Li An, those people will be here soon. I will tell you as soon as possible."

Li An stopped the car, opened the magic box, and took out the "magic props" one by one.

Fountain pen, magic wand, magic gun, hidden line, dagger, smoke bomb...

Huh? Is there something weird mixed in there?

In addition, there are various strange gadgets from Dr. Agasa and other magic dealers, and some are small things made by himself.

Although you may not always use it, it's always good to have it with you.

There is also a black robe and a white mask in the magic box, which are from a school festival that happened who knows how long ago.

Perhaps you still remember the description of this dress in the drama: it was a long robe that dragged on the ground, and the corners of the robe seemed to be stained with starlight.

About Starlight.

——When Li was rehearsing, the junior sister who was in charge of logistics in the drama club sprayed some water on the robe and sprinkled gold powder on it.

Miss Suzuki was very disgusted with this costume, so she asked someone to make a black robe for her to wear on stage overnight, and it was not delivered to her until she was about to go on stage.

That's another dress.

"According to Conan, there are two people on the third floor. They should come together."

"But I don't know if there are any other people in the museum."

Aso Jun speaks very fast, truly racing against time.

"I asked a few kids to run to another staircase. They should be gone by now."

"…You don't understand them. They won't run away."

After hearing what Li An said, Aso Jun was silent for a moment: "I hope they won't cause me any trouble."

Li An put the mask on his face and used a dagger to cut through the overly long black robe, finding a place to cut at the bottom of the robe.

The color she wore today was relatively bright, so she should change into black clothes for night activities to hide more easily.

Even if you wear a white dress like Kaito Kidd and walk around the city, you still have to change into night clothes when you need to hide.

Li An had no black clothes at hand, only this black robe.

But it's enough.

It is very spacious, and in order to meet the needs of drama performances, several rows of pockets are sewn inside to store a variety of props.

Just wrap yourself up and you won't be able to see anything.

It’s better than Gin’s long black trench coat.

It’s just not suitable for daytime wear, it will look suspicious.

The rate of people turning back to look at it is over 200%. After looking at it once, people would rub their eyes and look at it again, and then ask their companions around them whether they are filming a movie or not. It's so suspicious.

In addition, it has a disadvantage.

It's too long.

It can hold three children stacked up before the knees are exposed. It didn't matter during performances, but it is cumbersome to wear now.

So this crudely made starry sky cloak turned into a tattered black robe and a tattered gold-powder scarf.

"I'm going into the library right now. Can you still move?"

"can."

"be careful."

Li An put on an uneven knee-length robe, put the magic wand and dagger at his waist, put on his hood, and looked up under the faint light of the rising moon.

In front of me is the library in the dark.

……

Conan and the other children climbed out of the elevator one by one and came to the second floor. As soon as they ran into the stairs, they were stopped by him and made a gesture to be quiet.

Someone is coming down.

Conan pointed in the direction of the upstairs and walked downstairs with the children at a slow pace.

Fortunately, they made no noise and made their way to the first floor, out of the separate elevator lobby partition wall, through the first floor book area and ran to the front door.

I originally wanted to run out the door to call the police, but found that the door was locked.

"Let's go to the other stairwell. There should be a window there too."

Conan whispered as he led the children to the book area in another direction, which was another staircase.

He didn't want to go back to the stairs next to the elevator, so he decided to take a longer route to the other side.

He planned to send a few children out first, and then come in to find a way to save people.

Just now.

A strange voice came from behind.

"You kids, why are you still here so late?"

Oops!

Conan turned his head and saw a long-haired woman in a red uniform. She was holding a stack of documents and holding a flashlight. She looked at them strangely, as if she was surprised but not too surprised.

Conan overlooked one thing.

The library's power control room is on the first floor, and the elevator's mechanical room is on the fifth floor.

How could an elderly man walk from the first floor to the fifth floor, turn off the power on the first floor without blushing or breathing hard, and then run to the fifth floor to open the elevator in the machine room?
