Conan gave Hatsanoho a "You treat me like a fool" expression.

Chuluye pretended not to notice.

He took out his phone and pressed it, sending a message.

[I'm going to bring someone in, you guys quickly find a place to hide]

Smartphones, the only downside is that you can no longer blindly send messages by touch.

Although Chu Luye believes that even if he doesn't post this message, everyone can understand the meaning that needs to be hidden now, but posting a message to remind him will at least make it easier to communicate and better understand the current situation.

It's not a bad thing to be cautious.

As for what Conan thinks about his behavior of taking out his mobile phone to send messages at this time... This is not within the scope of Chu Luye's consideration.

In short, as long as Conan is not allowed to meet with them, then he is right to live alone.

Chuluye thought so.

And Conan saw Chu Luye sending messages in front of him openly, and he was full of complaints.

He was quite sure that he had just seen at least seven people at Chu Luye's house, and including Chu Luye, there were a total of eight.

Leaving aside how the previous "I live alone" slap in the face came so quickly, no matter how Chu Luye behaves now, it seems that he never thought that there would be such a group of people in the house suddenly, and he is urgently communicating with them, right?

Moreover, among the group of people who appeared in the other party's house, none of them looked like normal people. Compared with them, even Chu Luye's motorcycle costume, which had a high rate of turning heads on the street, became normal.

Even the moment he saw the situation inside clearly, Conan almost thought that they had broken into some large-scale themed comic exhibition - it was full of well-equipped cosplayers, everything except the camera.

Now it seems that these people should be Chu Luye's friends, at least the kind of relationship that can directly enter his house without the other party's knowledge.

... Then again, is the relationship between the current A Zhai group so close that they can collectively break into other people's homes and surprise others?

Conan was lost in thought.

Could it be... Chuluye, in fact, he must have been deceived.

Conan began to recall Chu Luye's words and deeds before, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was not impossible.

Because of lack of communication, A Zhai was cheated out of a large sum of money by netizens, and finally made it onto the social news. It seems that it happened just a few days ago.

As for Chu Luye, as a guy who lacks everything and will never be short of money, it is completely normal for him to be targeted by the gang.

A white light flashed across Conan's lens, and his eyes sharpened suddenly.

He decided to investigate thoroughly later. If this group of people really had another purpose, he must stop their actions, and he must not just watch a fraud case happen before his eyes.

Conan shut his mouth firmly, watching Chu Luye send messages to the group of people.

Originally, he wanted to pass the steps to Chuluye, and asked him to send himself to Dr. Ali, so he didn't plan to say anything, so he waited for Chuluye to open the door and let him in to investigate the case.

【received. 】

At first glance, it was Mr. Zhongli's tone.

After receiving the response, Chu Luye breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his head to look at Conan.

Then I found that Conan's expression seemed a little bit wrong.

"What's wrong?"

Chuluye asked.

"...Oh! Nothing, just wondering who those people were just now."

Conan said in a child's innocent tone, trying to get information from Hatsune.

"Brother Chuluye, can you tell me who they are?"

Chu Luye wanted to deny it, saying that he was the only one living in this repeated house, and what Conan saw just now were hallucinations.

But in this case, outright denial seems too pretentious.

Chuluye decides to open the door for Conan to see with his own eyes, to prove that the house is really the only "person" in it.

——Since there is no way to perfectly explain this matter with logic, then use non-logic and non-scientific methods to round up this matter.

It is not within his consideration to bully the small with the big, bully the few with the more, or use magic to defeat science.

Chu Luye thought so, and opened the door of the house again.

As he expected, there was nothing behind the door this time.

Whether it was the dishes that Xiangling had just prepared, the tea that Zhongli was drinking, or Master Lu's bird, all people and things disappeared behind them.

It looked as though this was the way it was.

Chu Luye was finally able to say these two words confidently:

"look."

Conan, who was about to change his shoes and go in, took a look at Hatsune, and it was clearly written on his face - "Aren't you a fool".

He had already seen Chu Luye send messages to that group of people. If Chu Luye didn't want those people to be seen by him, wouldn't it be normal for him not to see people now?

Although the speed at which they collected things was a little weird, but this made Conan's guess even more solid.

If it wasn't a professional fraud gang, how could they have the ability to clean up all traces of themselves in a short period of time.

After changing into his slippers, Conan raised his head and looked around. His eyes were immediately attracted by the huge sapphire in the display cabinet on the side of the living room, which reflected six rays of starlight.

"Ocean Star", the "world's largest sapphire" photographed by the Suzuki Consortium some time ago, was returned by Kaitou Kidd after he walked away for a while.

To put this kind of thing in the living room as an decoration in the new house, is it worthy of being the eldest son of the Suzuki Foundation?

Conan complained in his heart.

Well, now even the suspected fraud/stealing target of the fraud gang has been found, and the next step is field investigation to find clues.

"Brother Chuluye, I want to visit your house, can I?"

Conan turned around and asked sweetly.

Still standing by the door, Chu Luye, who was silently reflecting on his childish behavior just now, raised his head.

"……Can."

He looked at Conan like a cannonball with the launch button pressed, and rushed out with a "Thank you!" the moment he finished speaking.

...Let's follow up and have a look.

Chu Luye lowered his head and changed his shoes silently, guessing that Conan probably went to find someone who was hiding.

Although Chuluye is very confident in his partners who have experienced countless hide-and-seek trainings with him, seeing Conan's aggressive appearance, it is still difficult for him not to worry that some people who are not hiding well will be found by Conan.

If he was by the side, at least he could provide a cover and hide his feet for those who didn't hide well.

Chu Luye thought about it, and followed the direction Conan rushed out.

Then he realized how strong the energy of today's elementary school students is.

Chu Luye leaned against the door frame, watching Conan seemingly tirelessly observing every corner of the kitchen, and from time to time rubbed his fingers against traces or powders that he thought were suspicious—most likely the spilled seasoning.

It was the first time that Chu Luye felt that his home was so big, so big that only the first floor could be explored, but Conan could take him inside and turn him to exhaustion.

From the beginning of looking closely together, to the present leaning against the door frame to watch, it has only been a short 10 to [-] minutes.

Mainly tired.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, Conan can't go up to the upstairs bedroom, as long as the first floor is finished, this detective game should be over.

Chu Luye struggled to cheer up, thinking about the games, comics, light and figurines after taking care of the children, he felt another surge of energy surged from his body.

In the future, you must not accept the errands of bringing children!

Chu Luye thought regretfully, his eyes wandering aimlessly in the kitchen.

... The investigation on the first floor is about to be completed, and the mission is about to end, as long as everyone hides in the room well, no one hides on the first floor...

Chu Luye glanced at the yellow corner of the clothes exposed behind the glass jars of peppers stored on the cabinet.

——If I remember correctly, the peppers in it seem to be imported dried peppers that Xiangling bought specially.

Then who is hiding behind the glass jar seems to be very clear.

Chuluye quickly changed from a leaning posture to a standing posture, and glanced at the progress of Conan's investigation.

The elementary school students at a low altitude are carefully observing the traces left on the ground, and they will not be able to see such a high place for a while.

But Conan's position is already very close to the cabinet where Xiangling is, and he seems to be moving there.

Chu Luye took a few quick steps and got between Conan and the cabinet.

Taking advantage of Conan's doubts and raising his head for a short period of time, Chu Luye pulled the cabinet open with his backhand, and at the same time picked up a can of unknown things on the counter under the cabinet with his other hand.

Sure enough, Conan's eyes were subconsciously attracted by the hand in front of him, and he didn't notice the gap in the cabinet that Hatsune opened quietly.

"Brother Chuluye, what are you doing?"

Conan asked suspiciously.

"I am here……"

Chu Luye glanced down at the thing in his hand—fortunately, it was a jar of honey for seasoning.

"Suddenly, I want to eat, honey."

Chu Luye replied, naturally pulled out a spoon, and walked back towards the living room.

At the same time, he also carried the Q version of Xiangling who quietly hid in Conan's hood while Conan was not paying attention.

Conan glanced suspiciously at Chu Luye's back, and felt that he seemed to be hiding something, but he couldn't find the answer in him.

In the living room, Chu Luye, who was out of Conan's sight, put down the honey pot in his hand, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiang Ling turned out of the hood behind him, and gliding to the coffee table in front of Chu Luye with the wings of the wind.

"Thank you, Traveler."

Xiangling also breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked Chu Luye in a low voice.

"fine."

Chu Luye shook his head and asked, "On the first floor, there are, other people?"

"other people……"

Xiangling thought for a while, and found out the movements of several people from the chaotic scene in his memory.

"The mandrill seems to have gone out of the window, and Mona seems to have carried my food upstairs, and Dadalia and Di Luke don't know."

"But Mr. Zhongli, it seems that he is hiding on the first floor because he has to take care of the drunk Wendy."

Chu Luye didn't know what to say for a moment.
