Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1390 1390 [Better to be a ghost]

Next door, the dry rice cat who was lying in Mao Lilan's arms half-closed his eyes, suddenly moved his nose and became more energetic.

But before it tried to squeeze out its murderous aura, the mermaid and Miss Spider had already drifted past, leaving only two afterimages.

Dry Rice Cat: "..."

... having an entity is just inconvenient.

Although its ghost form is not as fast as the mermaid and Miss Spider, but at least it is free enough...

Ganfanmao touched his ears and sighed sadly.

……

Next to the password disk.

People's goals are not the same.Some people are paddling, but others are eager to push the progress.

Pusi Qinglan saw that the ambassador couldn't think of it for a long time, so she couldn't help but ask herself: "Could it be ВОЛШЕБНИКОНЦАВЕКА?"

Mao Lilan asked curiously, "What word is this?"

"It's really like what Ms. Kasaka said!" The ambassador nodded, with a look of sudden realization, he explained to a few people who didn't understand Russian, "In English, it's The Last Wizard Of The Century— —the magician of the end of the century."

While speaking, he pressed down.

As the last letter was typed, the room fell silent, and everyone stared at the dial with bated breath.

It was quiet.

Just when they thought they had failed again, the sound of gears turning suddenly came from under the floor.

"...It succeeded, it succeeded!"

The mechanism that had been dusty for a hundred years started to rotate again, and the floor near the code disk suddenly moved.

Jiang Xia stood up and backed away, picking up Conan.Soon, the complete wooden floor slid to one side, dust was flying, and a hole was separated on the ground, revealing a staircase leading to the deep underground.

"I didn't expect that there really is an underground secret passage." The few people were pleasantly surprised, looking at the entrance of the cave, a little embarrassed, "I should have prepared a few more flashlights."

As soon as the words were finished, they turned their heads in unison, looking at the flashlight that the art dealer had taken out, their eyes lit up.

Art dealer: "..."

He didn't come here today to hunt for treasure with these guys, he wanted to secretly find the treasure and take it away.

... But judging from the previous situation, the puzzles and mechanisms here seem to be beyond his knowledge, and his desire to fly solo has been shattered.

Like an excellent treasure hunter, the art dealer handed the flashlight to the only "policeman" present, and asked the "Shiratori Police Department" to control the lighting.

He himself, together with others, descended into this newly discovered secret passage.

……

Several people went down the stone steps all the way, and the surrounding temperature gradually became lower.

The underground passage is quite shady, but fortunately there is not much musty smell. It looks well preserved and very ventilated.

At the bottom of the stone steps is a secret road. The road is fairly wide and stretches straight forward. There is no fork in the road for the time being. It seems that they don't have to worry about which way to go.

You don't need to think, just walk, and everything suddenly becomes easier.

A few people walked forward along the underground passage, while replaying with some doubts: "Why is the password 'the magician at the end of the century'?"

Kasaka Natsumi guessed: "It may be the title that my great-grandfather once won - I heard that when he was 16 years old, he took his work to participate in the 1900 World Expo."

"So that's how it was. At that time, it was indeed called the 'end of the century'."

Just as he was talking, the flashlight in front of him suddenly stopped.

Jiang Xia came back to his senses, looked up, and saw that the "White Bird Police Department" had found something, and scanned the wall next to him with a flashlight.

On closer inspection, there was a small caved-in hole in the wall that looked like a fork in the road.

"White Bird Police Department" looked at the road: "Which way?"

Jiang Xia pointed to the normal road: "If it's just for hiding the treasure, the treasure may be designed on an unexpected trail, but since this is reserved for future generations, we can try the front road first."

The Russian ambassador also nodded: "Compared to the side road, it always feels more like a hollow in the stone wall. It's not safe, let's take the main road."

A group of people quickly reached a consensus, temporarily ignored the fork in the road, and continued to move forward.

……

There are very few forks in the ground, and everyone has been walking along the main road in the middle.

However, as he walked, a wall suddenly appeared in front of him.

The art dealer frowned: "Why is there no way?"

Jiang Xia looked up at the "wall" in the middle of the road.It is actually in the shape of a gate with many birds painted on it.In the middle is a huge eagle with two heads and a crown on both heads.

"The double-headed eagle, this is the symbol of the royal family in the past. Why did you draw this on the door?" The ambassador was taken aback, "Oh, speaking of it, the 'Egg of Memories' was indeed a gift intended for the royal family...but for the sake of Store it, make such a big place specially..."

The mural has been quietly placed underground for a hundred years, and it looks a little faded.But the jewels on the crown are still extremely eye-catching, and even reflect light when illuminated by the flashlight.

"It doesn't look like a painting." After Jiang Xia asked Kasaka Natsumi, he took a few photos.

——It may be the narrow underground secret passage, which makes the people in black who come and go like the wind very insecure.Judging from the location of the murderous aura, the two non-staff tourists who followed behind did not go down to the ground together.

Jiang Xia: "..." Take some photos and go back to show off, there will probably be extra gains.Even if the photos can't squeeze the murderous look, just the act of "showing off and expressing sympathy for the two people not being able to come in" is enough to attract several groups.

……

Some unscrupulous detectives are paddling, while others are serious about solving puzzles.

Conan stared at the "sun" pattern on the back of the double-headed eagle's head, and started his association: "Sun... light... mechanism-hmm? Is it a brightness meter? White Bird Police Department, try to focus the beam on the crown !"

"Shiratori Police Department" nodded.The flashlight he picked up from the art dealer was quite functional. He turned the dial, and quickly gathered the cone-shaped light into a thin beam, which shone on the crown above the double-headed eagle's head.

As the crown was illuminated, under the expectant gaze of everyone, there was a dull sound of gears gnashing around through the stone wall.

Soon, the whole piece of ground near the mural slowly descended, and the ground next to it was divided into two halves, revealing a section of downward steps.

The steps are not too long, and when you go down to the end, a magnificent dome hall appears in front of you.

"This kind of building can be built underground." The ambassador was full of excitement, as if he wanted to say something.However, remembering that the person who covered it was a Japanese, and this kind of thing could not be recycled, he was silent for a moment, swallowed his words again, and concentrated on watching.

Jiang Xia looked around, and his eyes quickly fell on the center of the hall like everyone else.
