But things backfired—soon, the tip of its nose moved, suddenly alert.

Conan was slightly taken aback when he saw the fox's fur suddenly exploded.

Soon he realized something, looked up from the varnished cabinet, and saw a figure appearing behind him.

... Why does this person walk without moving at all! ?

Realizing that something was wrong, Conan pulled the cover of the watch and turned around suddenly, but before he could turn around, his wrist suddenly tightened.

The mask with the dark pattern of the skull appeared in front of his eyes again. The mute grabbed his wrist with one hand like a chicken, stretched out the other hand, clasped the mechanism on the side of the watch, and pressed it lightly.

Under Conan's horrified gaze, the anesthesia needle was fired and stuck firmly on his forehead, and he quickly lost his strength and fell backwards.

Bai Shi looked down at him, this expression, no matter how many times he saw it, made people want to pound the table and laugh.

He let go of his hand, took out the anesthesia syringe, looked at the scale on it, counted the time, and injected most of the syringe into Conan.

The hidden gemstone watch cannot be taken out until night, and before that, it will take a long time to wait.

If Conan is allowed to wake up, this house will not know how many secrets he will reveal.

Anyway, get off the assembly line, detective.

Chapter 166 What a Coincidentally It's You Again

On the second floor near the stairs, there was a study room. Shiraishi put Conan on the carpet there, and stuffed a magazine into his arms.

Returning to the room at the end, Shiraishi lowered his head and saw the fox lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

He approached and poked at the fox cake, saw it whimpering and turning over and getting up, holding a pen as if thinking hard, and then got up.

He walked to the door, locked the door again, and waited for a while in the form of a cat, paying attention to the movement on the first floor.

Afterwards, with a few seconds remaining from the anesthesia buff, Shiraishi released his form and returned to his body.

……

Mori Kogoro and Mao Lilan were fascinated by the dazzling array of clocks and watches. After admiring all the handicrafts on the four walls and wanting to express their shock to the owner, they turned around and found that the "owner" was gone.

On closer inspection, Conan was gone too.

The nervous father and daughter glanced at each other, realizing that the other party didn't know where the person was, they called out a few times, but they didn't hear Conan's reply, nor did they see the owner come out.

They slowly realized something was wrong.

At this time, normal people will give priority to it. The "missing person" may have gone out to play in the yard, or because of other things, they went out temporarily.

But after all, Mao Li and his daughter have experienced great storms, and the two looked at each other again, feeling bad in their hearts.

They started from the first floor and searched room by room. When they came to the bedroom near the stairs, Mao Lilan wanted to push the door in just like before, but failed.

The door is locked.

"Conan? Are you in there?" After Mao Lilan called him, she wanted to call the silent owner again. She forgot to ask the other party's name, but he said that the letter was written by his sister, so his surname should also be Nakamura Okay, "Mr. Nakamura? Is anyone there?"

Kogoro Mori heard the movement, and came over and knocked a few times.

As we all know, in this world, locked doors are very dangerous, and there are often various corpses or victims who are dying behind the door.

Still failing to get a response, Mori Kogoro's expression slowly became serious. He asked his daughter to stand a little further away, and was about to knock on the door. Just as he was lucky enough, the door lock clicked, and someone opened it from the inside.

Mao Lilan turned her head to look, and was stunned—she never thought that her downstairs neighbor would yawn and stand behind this door as if she hadn't woken up.

The neighbor looked at them blankly for a while, raised his hand to straighten out his messy hair, and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

"This should be our line!"

Kogoro Mori dragged Shiraishi out of the crack of the door, walked into the room vigilantly, and checked around.

Fortunately, the room was clean and tidy, there were no dead bodies, and no uninvited guests were hiding in the room. The door should have been locked by Shiraishi himself, not some criminal who slipped in.

Um?and many more.

Speaking of unexpected guests...

Mori Kogoro walked out of the bedroom and looked at Shiraishi, whose surname was definitely not "Nakamura", and Mori Ran, the three of them faced each other in a daze for a while.

After a while, realizing that Shiraishi seemed to be the most confused of the three, Mori Kogoro and Mori Ran began to explain the situation to him.

After listening carefully, Baishi pressed the center of his eyebrows solemnly, and explained his experience today very frankly:

"I don't know any self-made mute who loves to wear a mask. I came here today because my mother's friend asked me to help look after his daughter.

"However, when I came, Ms. Nakamura seemed to have gone out-her father said that she would not go out for a month, and once she went out, she would shop until dark and buy enough supplies for a month before returning.

"I knocked on the door and no one answered, so I followed what Uncle Nakamura said, and came in after finding the spare key. But after waiting for a while, I suddenly felt sleepy, and I was worried about sleeping in the living room of the villa in the suburbs - I heard that this would attract passers-by The criminals broke into the house and robbed, and temporarily occupied the bedroom."

After hearing this, Mori Kogoro said clearly: "No wonder...Miss Nakamura moves so regularly and lives alone. It is indeed easy to attract thieves. In her letter, she did say that she felt someone peeping around. It must be here. A squatting little thief.

"This little girl really doesn't pay attention to precautions. Fortunately, we came over suddenly and scared the thief away."

At this time, thinking of the mute who had slipped away suddenly, Mouri Kogoro finally had some doubts about his identity as a "reporter".

Thinking about it carefully, it is impossible for people who have been carrying microphones and cameras to interview frontlines all year round to have such clean hands.

Maybe it was because of the thief's fear of the authorities that he evaded the police station's record before?
