The man in Conan is the mastermind behind the scenes

After a while, Xiaolan came back with a vine. Knowing that Conan was under the cliff, she threw the vine down.

"Conan, hold on, I'll pull you up."

"No, sister Xiaolan, can you split the vine into two strands so I can tie the rope." Conan replied from under the cliff.

"Really, you're too naughty."

Xiaolan pulled back a long vine, split it into two strands, tied a noose at the end, put it on the wooden stake at the end of the bridge, tested its strength, grabbed the vine with one hand, grabbed the rope of the broken bridge with the other hand, and slid down.

This shocked everyone again, but thanks to Xiaolan's previous performance, no one was as panicked as before.

Xiaolan came down to Conan's side, and Conan looked at her blankly, and was about to speak.

"Ouch!"

He was hit hard on the forehead.

Conan covered his forehead with one hand, his eyes full of grievance. What he originally wanted to say, "Just wait for me up there, no need to come down." Now it has become:

"Why did you hit me?"

"Because you are a reckless kid, you are just showing off, and it has already reached a very dangerous level."

Xiaolan raised the vine in her hand: "This is alive, and it is as thick as the rope. Look at your right hand, you can barely hold the rope, and you still want to tie a knot with one hand? What if you risk using both hands and fall down?"

Xiaolan looked down, it was pitch black, without any light, and there was a faint gust of cold wind blowing.

Boo——!

"It hurts! Sister Xiaolan, what are you doing."

Conan just let go of his forehead and quickly covered it again, and his eyes were about to burst into tears.

"If you fall down here, you will definitely be doomed. I have to make you, a reckless person, remember this." Xiaolan handed the two vines in her hand to Conan, "You should try with one hand. Remember to fall slowly, otherwise I can't catch you." "Humph, I won't." Conan was quite annoyed by Xiaolan, who had obviously needed his care in the past, and planned to let Xiaolan take a good look at how he could easily complete it. As a result, as Xiaolan said, he couldn't complete it when tying the knot because his hands were too small. This made Conan realize that he was indeed too arrogant before, and this body after shrinking was far less strong and powerful than before. Conan tried several times in a row without success, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and secretly went to see Xiaolan. Xiaolan looked at him calmly, without any expression, but Conan just felt a burst of ridicule. "I told you, arrogant little detective." Conan guessed that Xiaolan must be thinking this sentence in her heart at this time. This made him quite unwilling, and he made up his mind and bit the end of the vine. Fresh juice burst into his mouth, bitter and astringent.

But he still tied a knot with all his strength and showed it to Xiaolan with a proud look on his face.

"How about it, I'm done."

Xiaolan shook her head and sighed, asking him to let go, and stepped lightly on the hanging rope.

Snap!

The knot loosened instantly, and the elastic end of the vine hit Conan's face. Conan dodged quickly, and the vine passed by his mouth.

Conan felt a burning pain on his lips, and just as he was breathing with his teeth bared, he heard Xiaolan laugh "Puchi~~".

Conan was angry, this guy was so hateful, and he immediately glared at him.

The next second, he was stunned.

Xiaolan's blue eyes flashed with the soft light of the morning sun, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, outlining a breathtaking arc.

In a trance, Conan saw the Sakura class thirteen years ago...

No, it was even more beautiful and gorgeous than then.

Xiaolan now had a light that he had never seen before, pure and stunning.

His hand loosened unconsciously.

Snap!

Xiaolan barely let Conan fall an inch, and immediately grabbed his collar.

"Sorry, I'm rude, but now Conan, your lip glaze is really beautiful."

"…………"

Conan was speechless, pursed his lips lightly, and was hot. He guessed that he must have a pair of big sausage lips now.

"Come back to your senses, grab the rope, let me tie the knot, you tied it too loose."

Xiaolan's hand shook, and Conan quickly grabbed the rope of the broken bridge with both hands, and couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

"It's dangerous. I button my clothes."

"Now you know how dangerous it is. What was I thinking before? I wanted to let you try to tie the knot with both hands and wait for you to fall a little deeper before catching you. But Senior Kyogoku is here. Business matters are more important. Let Inspector Megure teach you a lesson."

Xiaolan said while tying the knot with one hand.

Conan looked at the other side of the cliff and saw a dark figure in the backlight bandaging his left arm.

"Haha, they really did play too much before, and they are all injured."

"It's normal for warriors to get injured. Compared with your recklessness, that level is nothing."

"...Aren't you worried about Brother Shuiyue, Xiaolan?"

"Because Shuiyue will be fine."

"Sister Xiaolan trusts Brother Shuiyue so much?"

"Yes, you are too precocious to ask so many questions, right? Did you have a girlfriend in elementary school?"

The more Xiaolan knows about Yingsheng, the more she feels that Yingsheng is too powerful, and there is no limit to her. She can only try her best to get close to him.

But she herself is not sure about the effect.

"Ahaha..."

Conan scratched his head awkwardly: "I'm just curious, girlfriend or something..."

Haha, I don't want to go to elementary school again.

Conan was eager to change the subject. He looked at Xiaolan's knotting technique for a few times, and his eyes lit up: "Sister Xiaolan, is it a fisherman's knot? The one that will be more secure the more force it bears?"

Xiaolan nodded: "Conan is indeed a little genius, knowledgeable, this is what Shuiyue taught me."

"Hey, it's Brother Shuiyue."

Conan's interest was inexplicably weak, but he still asked casually: "Why did you suddenly teach me about knots? Is there any use for it?"

"No, it's just that when we were chatting about knots, Shuiyue told me which knots are useful, such as the fisherman's knot..."

Xiaolan paused, and suddenly remembered that when Yingsheng taught her how to use this knot, the first example he cited was:

-"Use this knot to tie someone up. As long as the quality of the rope is good, the person will definitely not be able to escape."

"…………"

When Xiaolan thought of this, she was speechless now as before. Shuiyue was indeed an outlaw.

He wouldn't tie someone up now, right?

Seeing Conan's curiosity, Xiaolan continued with a smile: "Mr. Shuiyue said that this kind of knot is very suitable for emergency rescue and will not cause any accidents. The current situation is just right. As for why we are talking about this, well... have you read "The Sign of Four"? There is a special knot mentioned in it."

"The Sign of Four?!"

Conan was not very interested at first, thinking that Yingsheng was indeed much more attentive to Xiaolan than he was. When he heard Xiaolan's last sentence, he immediately became shocked as if he had been electrocuted, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

"The Sign of Four by Conan Doyle?!"

No!

How is this possible!

Xiaolan actually read Sherlock Holmes? !

"Are you so surprised?" Xiaolan frowned slightly, "Is there anything wrong with me reading this novel?"

"Of course not!"

Conan also felt that he was overreacting, and quickly pretended to be a child's silly, giggled twice, and scratched his head.

"I just rarely see people who read Sherlock Holmes, and I can't find anyone to chat with. I didn't expect that Xiaolan and Suiyue would talk about detective novels, so I was a little surprised."

"Is that so? There may be very few people of your age who read detective novels." Xiaolan suddenly thought of something and smiled with interest, "Conan, have you heard of Kudo Shinichi?"

Conan's heart skipped a beat, and he thought he was discovered, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

But with the previous experience, he immediately pretended to be innocent and supported the joke, with stars in his eyes.

"Is it the famous high school detective? The savior of the Metropolitan Police Department? He is my idol!"

"That's even better."

After tying the knot, Xiaolan rubbed Conan's fluffy hair and smiled and expressed his thoughts.

"Shinichi also likes to read mystery novels, and he can't find anyone to chat with. How about I introduce you to him?"

"What?"

Conan was completely stunned.

Myself, know yourself? !
