My Partner is Shiina Mashiro

"Haibara, Officer Megure and the others have already controlled the corridor."

Conan, whose face was covered with sweat, also came to Zhenbai's side. Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Ai lowered his head and exuded a dangerous atmosphere.

Ben Xiaoai held the gun against his back all the way, and Conan, who was already terrified, subconsciously took two steps back. The expression of the brown-haired girl was too ferocious and terrifying.

Compared with the ferocious expression, Xiao Ai's voice was still calm, "Have the intruders been caught?! Have those bastards who hurt my family been caught?!"

"...No, no." Wiping the cold sweat off his brow, Conan leaned against the door of the small room, unable to retreat, "Officer Mumu said...the intruder seems to have run away."

"Come here..."

"Then what will Sister Shiina do..."

"Mu Mu Shisan will help me take care of Miss Zhenbai..."

Xiao Ai's voice was filled with boundless coldness.

"I don't care whether you are a famous high school detective or a little devil in the first grade of elementary school..."

"But I will only cause trouble for Police Officer Megure if I rush out now. With the body of our elementary school students, even if we find the intruder, we will just give away the head. Haibara, listen to me, please Don't be impulsive, you have to have confidence in Officer Mumu and the others!"

Conan's voice stopped abruptly, and Xiao Ai held the sand.Desert Eagle's hand rested on his lower abdomen.Conan's throat seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, and his expression seemed dejected and powerless.

"You just need to answer whether I do or don't, I don't have time to chat with you now - of course, to make sure you don't reject my offer, if we don't catch the intruder, I will destroy all information about APTH4396 .”

"I... Huiyuan! You can't do this, don't you want to change back into an adult body?!"

"It's important to become an adult..." Xiao Ai sneered, and there was a taste of wanting to be cruel in his smile, "But now, I must let those intruders know what cruelty is!"

Forcibly pulling Conan over to cooperate with him, Haibara Ai knew that it was absolutely impossible to catch the intruder by himself.

Relying on the advantage brought by the size of a child, Xiao Ai and Conan bypassed the sight of the police and returned to the playground of Zongwu High School.At this time, the playground was in chaos, and all the police were busy blocking the scene. After all, Zhenbai’s accidental injury was already a slap in the face, and the Chiba County Police Department, which had lost all face, was eager to save their face.

Xiao Ai, who was hiding in the depths of the woods, watched the police blockade the scene with gritted teeth, but for some reason, Hui Yuan Ai still felt that the possibility of the intruder escaping was quite high.

Things didn't go beyond her expectations, a steel behemoth pierced through the night, and the searchlights on the armed helicopter that descended from the sky immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Xiao Ai looked up, and saw a figure holding a sniper rifle hovering in mid-air, with short green hair flying around in the huge airflow from the propeller, but the searchlight was too dazzling Even Haibara Ai couldn't see the opponent's face clearly.

The armed helicopter descended slowly, and the huge airflow rolled up the dust all over the sky. The police who recovered from the shock desperately fired in the direction of the helicopter, but it was obvious that the opponent's control of the distance was very subtle, and the police's shooting was not at all. There is no way to deal with this giant steel beast.

Aria and Xingjia Baixue boarded the armed helicopter with the help of cables, and as soon as they stood firm, they gave Lizi who was driving the helicopter a wink.

The machine gun under the gunship's fuselage opened fire suddenly, and the continuous heavy firepower suppressed the policemen so that they couldn't lift their heads. Taking advantage of the gap of firepower suppression, the helicopter slowly rose into the blue sky.

Xiao Ai, who was hiding on a big tree, clenched her fists, stared at Conan's temple with a gun, and stuffed a high-explosive grenade into Conan's hand.

"You, use all your strength to kick this towards that helicopter!"

"So, what is this thing?"

"U.S.-made military high-explosive grenades...the killing radius is about 200 meters."

"Are you crazy?!"

"I'm not crazy, I know what I'm doing." Xiao Ai glared at Conan indifferently, his face full of ferocity, "Kick me out immediately, or I'll kill you right now!"

Conan is well aware of how powerful the high-explosive grenade is. This thing kills too much. Even if it is detonated in the air, it is very likely to accidentally injure it. But now that his life is threatened, Conan can only be Bite the bullet and go on.

"Ah!"

With a loud shout, Conan, with the help of a pair of kicking-enhancing sneakers under his feet, kicked the high-explosive grenade that pulled the ring in the direction of the armed helicopter.

Just when the grenade was about to detonate in the air, a cold light flashed in the cold eyes of the green-haired girl guarding the cabin door.

Without too much thinking or too much aiming, Lei Ji pulled the trigger of the SVD decisively. Before the high-explosive grenade was about to detonate close to the armed helicopter, the bullets of the SVD hit its target accurately.

The strong light and loud noise took away everyone's vision and hearing. By the time Xiao Ai regained her sight, the armed helicopter had already disappeared without a trace.

Chapter 250 Three

a few days later.

Entrance to the small room in the basement warehouse of Sobu High School, Chiba Prefecture.

Hui Yuanai stared at the damaged door at the entrance of the small room. Behind the door, the blood stains left by Mashiro's wound had not been wiped off, and under the gloomy red light emitted by the LEDs, it looked a little bloody.

In protective clothing, masks and white gloves, Haibara Ai and Conan, who were fully armed, used watch-type anesthesia needles to anesthetize the policemen guarding the corridor, and then secretly entered the small room for investigation.

In just a few days, Xiao Ai's family members fell down one by one.Liu Sen, who was facing the explosion, is still awake. Gilgamesh, who was shot in the lower abdomen by a sniper rifle, and Mabai, who was shot in the shoulder blade by a pistol, have just been hospitalized not long ago.

Just yesterday, Zhenbai, who had just regained consciousness after the operation, handed a notebook full of materials to Xiao Ai, and told her to find out the murderer behind the serial killings in Zongwu Gao.

I don't really understand why Zhenbai is obsessed with solving the case, but as long as it is arranged and ordered by his family, Hui Yuanai will follow it without asking why.

"From now on, you need to cooperate with me." Xiao Ai looked up at the ceiling of the small room full of metallic tones, with endless coldness in his eyes, "If you want to get the antidote, you should use it well The brains of the famous detective Kudo Shinichi."

Conan's expression froze.

I have to admit that the tea-haired girl's words were too attractive to him, and he had no other choice. Maybe it would be an effective way to tell the police everything, but Hui Yuanai had already told him clearly that the police internally There may also be undercover agents of the Men in Black organization.It was such a message that made Conan completely give up the idea of ​​revealing his identity to the world. In order to protect the safety of those around him and obtain an antidote, Conan had no choice but to cooperate with Xiao Ai.

Conan actually wanted to tell Haibara Ai that he might not be able to find anything if he came to the scene again, but when Haibara Ai saw that Conan was about to speak, he immediately turned his head away, as if he was angry.

Conan probably could understand her mood too.Although I don't know the very specific reason, but the people closest to me were seriously injured one after another in a short period of time. If it were him, he might not be better than this tea-haired girl.

But it's useless to think about it now, with Haibara Ai's look of making up his mind, Conan knew that he said too much and it was just in vain.

As soon as he entered the scene, Xiao Ai immediately entered the serious mode. When investigating the Miura Yumiko poisoning case, Liu Sen once jokingly said that it would be great if he could have a professional forensic doctor by his side.

At that time, Xiao Ai deliberately did not answer Liu Sen's question in order to cover up herself, but to be honest, Xiao Ai's forensic level can be said to be no less than that perverted DR Fashion.

APTH4896 is a special drug for the inside of the human body, and Xiao Ai, who has been developing this drug for a long time, is quite familiar with the internal conditions of the human body. As long as she can see the corpse, she has a way to decipher the mystery of the corpse like a professional forensic doctor. real cause of death.

"You can investigate on the spot now."

Xiao Ai instructed Conan.

"I want to redo the autopsy."

Squatting next to the still-removed corpse of Hikigaya Hachiman, Haibara Ai took out some professional instruments from his backpack—these were borrowed by Conan from Dr. Agata, the only one who knew his true identity. There were a lot of them The equipment is not available in the market.

Xiao Ai was concentrating on the investigation and analysis of the corpse, and the data fed back from the instrument also showed that the information on the corpse was similar to the autopsy report provided by DR Fashion.

There was an obvious injury at the back of the head, but because the body was burned too severely, it was impossible to determine whether this injury was the real cause of Hikigu Hachiman's death.

If it weren't for a tooth that was not completely burned, it would not even be possible to determine the identity of the corpse as Hiki Valley Hachiman.

"The carbon content seems to be a bit high?"

Xiao Ai frowned. After the second autopsy, she still didn't find any information that she hadn't found before... except for one thing, except that the charred corpse had a high carbon content. Nothing special anymore.

The main components of the human body are mainly oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus and other trace elements, of which the proportion of carbon is about 18.00%.If a large living person is heated and burned at high temperature, the oxygen and hydrogen elements in the human body will float into the air, leaving most of the carbon elements.

Theoretically, according to the principle of conservation of matter, in any material system isolated from the surroundings, no matter what changes or processes occur, its total mass will always remain unchanged.

After death, the internal circulatory system can be seen as a relatively isolated system, so after high-temperature incineration, the carbon element in the body should remain relatively unchanged, fluctuating slightly from the value of 18.00%.

However, the carbon content of this charred corpse has reached 20.00% five, which is already a bit exaggerated.Whether there is any kind of mystery hidden in it is still unknown, and she needs more professional instruments to completely unlock the real secret of this charred corpse.

"Brother Liu Sen, Sister Zhenbai, Sister Jill, you just take good care of your injuries, and I will definitely not let you down."

Xiao Ai clenched her fists, secretly making up her mind.

Those who saw the stars together yesterday may not be around today, but the stars are always watching us.Xiao Ai doesn't know if her parents who are far away in the sky will bless her now, but Xiao Ai knows that there are three people in this world who have been looking forward to her.

"So, my great detective, have you found anything special over there?"

After brushing her brown hair, Xiao Ai wiped the sweat off her face, and asked Conan a question.

"I have a general answer to the questions listed by Sister Shiina, but there is still one point that I haven't fully figured out."

"Huh? Let's talk about it. I still have a lot of confidence in you, a famous high school detective."

"There is only a little evidence that can be found at the scene, and the search work in the basement has come to an end."

Conan pondered for a while, pinching his chin with his left hand and supporting the elbow of his left hand with his right hand, making a thinking posture.

"Well...Although all the evidence has been collected, the only point, that is, the point of doubt in Sister Shiina's heart, is still unclear."

"Indeed." Xiao Ai nodded, agreeing with Conan's point of view, "There is one question that puzzles me more than that charred mummy."

"Based on the judgment and analysis of the instruments, according to the degree of damage to the corpse, the fire lasted for at least an hour..."

"But... that's very strange, isn't it?"

"Yeah, that's the only thing I can't figure out—could the fire really last that long?"

Indeed, according to the general logic, the fire will go out naturally soon after burning, because the oxygen as a combustion aid is absolutely insufficient.

As I have said before, the unique structure of this room leads to the lack of oxygen circulation, but if a certain point can be achieved, the whole situation will be completely different.

The thoughts in his mind were intermittent, and Conan knew that he only needed to find a key point to press the switch in his brain.He slowly walked to the corner of the wall, and after squatting down, a bright light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"I understand, I already know how the fire lasted for more than an hour!" Conan said loudly while supporting Xiao Ai's shoulder.

"What do you understand?" Xiao Ai asked subconsciously after being caught by Conan's actions.

"What if I say... at the time of the fire, the door of this water storage tank was open?"

There was a flash of light on the lens, Conan said confidently.

"If the water storage tank doors were open while the fire was burning, it would be like this."

Conan took out a notebook and drew what was in his mind on the paper.

"In that case, the storage room no longer has only one opening like a bottle, but has two openings, one upper and one lower, like an older stove."

"The rise of the hot air lowers the air pressure in the storage room, which draws in fresh air from the drain - so that the oxygen needed for combustion is continuously supplied."

It was like a vivid and unique physics class. After explaining all this, Xiao Ai also had a high opinion of Conan.

After wasting a lot of effort, Xiao Ai and Conan finally figured out the outline of the case.Just when Conan wanted to leave the small room, Xiao Ai stayed where he was and said.

"Then there is still a problem that has not been explained clearly. Was Hikigaya Hachiman's death a suicide or a homicide?"

"I don't think the deceased committed suicide." Conan shook his head, "If he really chose such a cruel way of death, and went to the basement on purpose, it would make no sense at all...The situation at the scene is so abnormal Even if the surveillance video didn’t capture the scene of him entering the basement, I don’t think the possibility of suicide is really high.”

"Is it possible that the murderer was someone outside the school?"

Xiao Ai continued to ask questions.

"For example, Miss Yukinoshita Yono, if I say that she secretly entered Sowu High last night, and then started to lurk... there is a possibility."

"Having been lurking in the school since last night?"

"Because the surveillance video is not omnipotent. Since Hikigu Hachiman can also enter the basement without anyone noticing, of course Yokinoshita Yono has a way to sneak into Sobu High."
