The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

The secret passage was not a completely enclosed space. The smell of food coming from the vent let Conan know that it was dinner time outside.

The outside of the wall may be a kitchen, dining room, etc., so as long as...

"Hello!"

"I'm here!"

"I'm here!"

Conan roared loudly several times, but soon gave up due to exhaustion.

The hands tied behind the back cannot operate the butterfly joint voice changer, and the child's voice is limited to its limit.

Conan, who was lying on the ground, tried to raise his head, but his hands and feet were tied with ropes, and the angle at which his head could be raised was very limited.

As soon as his neck moved at an angle, Conan felt a splitting headache in his head.

hateful!

That guy's attack caused me to relapse into an old injury.

Although the back of the head was hit from behind again, causing more injuries, Conan, who was in good health, still lived strong and remembered who the person who attacked him was.

That's the one!

Now I just need to escape and tell everyone the truth.

But how to escape?

Conan fiddled with it, turned on the lighting function of the watch on his right hand, and looked around.

There was an escape route in front of him, but his body was restrained and he could only crawl forward slowly like a cocoon.

If he escaped now, he would be able to climb out a short distance, but he would not be able to climb the steps.

And I remember that when I came down, I passed by a long flight of steps and saw the words carved by the person whose identity was replaced on the steps.

There is no point in just climbing to the steps. It is better to lie here and pretend to be asleep when the person comes back. Maybe you can find a good angle to knock him down with an anesthetic needle.

This is the only way Conan can think of to save himself.

However, this method only treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. Even if he anesthetizes the prisoner, he still has to escape within a limited time.

Otherwise, when the prisoner wakes up, his result will still be the same.

Do you have to wait for someone else's rescue to get out of trouble?

Conan made such a judgment in his brain, but who could he count on?

Ayumi, Genta, Mitsuhiko?

It would be nice if they didn't give it away for free.

The Doctor is an adult, and Haihara Ai has a good mind, but the Doctor is too gullible, and Haihara Ai has the body of a child just like himself.

Sure enough, the most reliable one is Qin Zhibo.

With that person's reasoning and observation skills, he would definitely be able to figure out that person's true identity.

But if he found her, he would definitely see that she was tied up like this.

What a shame!

"hateful!"

Conan felt ashamed and angry when he thought about the scene where he was embarrassed in front of his peers.

no!

Before Qin Zhibo found me, I had to find a way to adjust to a less embarrassing posture.

Just like that, Conan began to roll on the ground, looking for a position that would make him look less embarrassed when he was found.

At the door of the kitchen, Qin Zhibo was coming to inspect the kitchen to see if there were any "additional ingredients" in today's dinner.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Matsumoto Ryohei leaning against the wall, his ears pressed against the wall.

Sun wall?

"what are you doing?"

Matsumoto Ryohei turned around and explained: "I just heard some strange noises coming from behind the wall, maybe they were mice."

mouse?

Rat in the wall?

"Are there rats in this house?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Matsumoto Ryohei turned his head and continued to sit on the operating table and work on the dishes, "Maybe, this castle was designed with many secret passages when it was first built."

"As you know, for some historical reasons, rich people's big houses have some secret passages, air-raid shelters and the like."

"By the way, have you found the little boy with glasses?"

"No."

Qin Zhibo patrolled around the operating table where the dishes were being arranged. After confirming that there were no unusual dishes, he asked: "Do you know how to enter those secret passages?"

Matsumoto Ryohei thought for a moment and said calmly: "I don't know much."

"There is one next to the clock on the wall of the showroom on the second floor."

"There is one on the left corner wall of the first floor, but it is a one-way exit."

"There is one under the wall lamp on the third pillar on the right side of the hall on the first floor."

"There is one inside the tall tower outside the castle."

"There is one behind the bookcase on the far right side of the study room on the third floor."

"besides."

Matsumoto Ryohei's words made Qin Zhibo ashamed. How could he not know much?

Maybe you are more familiar with it than I am?

"Well, you can take me into the secret passage after dinner."

"I guess there is indeed a 'little mouse' hidden in these secret passages."

At the sumptuous dining table, three little ones were feasting.

“It’s so delicious!”

“No less than a chef in a high-end restaurant!”

“It’s as delicious as eel rice!”

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta spoke highly of the food on the table.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Matsumoto, for preparing such a sumptuous dinner."

With a polite word, Dr. Ali moved forward with both knife and fork.

Hui Yuan Ai held the knife and fork in her hands. Although the fragrance had already entered her nostrils, she still hesitated.

Last time in Yokosuka, Haibara Ai didn't have a good impression of Matsumoto Ryohei, which led to him not wanting to eat the food he cooked today.

Just like she would never eat a meal cooked by Gin.

Qin Zhibo on the side noticed Hui Yuan Ai's hesitant attitude and comforted him: "Don't worry, there are no ingredients in the rice."

"Add ingredients?" Dr. Ali stopped the flying knife and fork in his hand, "What ingredients should I add?"

"Add" Qin Zhibo reacted immediately and prevaricated: "Computer accessories."

Dr. A Li: "?"

Haibara Ai:"?"

At this time, Mamiya Mitsuru also said with a smile: "It's nice to be so lively and lively sometimes. I haven't eaten Mr. Matsumoto's food for a long time."

Mamiya Mitsuru's eyes flashed with greed, and then he stabbed a piece of steak with his fork.

The noble Mamiya on the side nodded and replied: "Yes, since my mother died in the fire four years ago, we have almost no guests here."

"Fire?" Qin Zhibo, who missed some key plot points, was a little confused.

"Yes." Lord Mamiya nodded, "Four years ago, my mother who lived abroad came to celebrate my grandmother's birthday and lived in the burnt stone tower next to the castle."

"Unexpectedly, a fire broke out in the middle of the night, so"

Mamiya Takato's words stopped abruptly, and at the same time he glanced at the old lady sitting in a wheelchair next to him.

Since her mother's death, the old lady has been hit hard and she always thought that time had stopped before her daughter came back.

In order to take care of the old lady's emotions, the people in the castle acquiesced to the matter and stopped mentioning the fire in person.

But today, the old lady stayed in the restaurant to have dinner with everyone, uncharacteristically. She usually eats in her room most of the time.

and

Looking at the few empty plates placed in front of the old lady, both Mamiya Mitsuru and Mamiya Takato were a little surprised.

The old lady today seems to be very good at eating?
