Halfway up the mountain.
After a drive of about ten minutes, the people in the car finally caught a glimpse of the general outline of the suspension bridge.
However, the scene that unfolded before their eyes was like a heavy hammer blow, instantly plunging everyone's hearts into an abyss.
The suspension bridge had been completely destroyed, leaving only a few broken ropes swaying helplessly in the raging wind and rain. The bottomless abyss below the bridge resembled a huge, gaping maw, as if it could mercilessly devour everything at any moment.
"Wow, it's completely destroyed!" Kogoro Mouri got out of the car, bent down to examine the condition of the suspension bridge, and couldn't help but click his tongue.
"It seems they're determined to trap us here." Mogi Harufumi put his hands in his pockets, a flash of barely suppressed anger crossing his eyes.
Hattori Heiji remained silent, his eyes fixed on the broken suspension bridge, his mind racing as he considered a solution.
While the three of them were focused on checking the situation, Chima Kazuyo, sitting in the driver's seat, looked at the three figures in front of him, and a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on his withered face.
"Grandma Senma, could you please switch the headlights to low beams? I'd like to check the situation around my feet..."
"boom!!!"
Just as Hattori Heiji turned around, wanting to ask Senma Furuyo to switch the lights, he heard an extremely loud explosion before he could even finish speaking.
The powerful shockwave from the explosion nearly caused the three people in front of the suspension bridge to slip and fall.
Before they could even regain their footing, they saw that the yellow sedan driven by Chima Kazuyo had been reduced to a raging inferno in the explosion.
Moreover, the sea of fire was rushing towards them with overwhelming force.
Fortunately, the three reacted extremely quickly.
After successfully dodging the oncoming car, they could only watch helplessly as the car carrying Chika Kazuyo plunged off the cliff. They then rushed to the edge of the broken bridge and peered down the cliff to check the situation.
"Ms. Sen...Ms. Sen!!" Kogoro Mori, bewildered, frantically shouted towards the bottom of the cliff.
Heiji Hattori and Harufumi Mogi exchanged a glance, both lost in thought, and simultaneously gave each other a meaningful, cold smile.
at the same time,
In the dense forest nearby, a dark figure was silently watching the three people by the broken bridge.
...
...
"Where is the treasure? Treasure, treasure, come out quickly!"
"La la la la la la la la la~"
Kazuha and Ran were holding hands, looking around excitedly, their eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Is there really treasure here?
"Of course."
Yuzuru smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over the antique furniture and the faded oil paintings on the walls of the hall. "However, treasures are not so easy to find."
Ai followed beside him and asked in a low voice, "Do you already know where the treasure is?"
Yuzuru didn't answer directly, but gently squeezed her hand, signaling her to calm down.
Behind them, Kuroba Chikage, disguised as Yata Ikumi, looked at Hanyu Nanami and Haibara Ai, who were talking with their heads turned to the side, pursed her red lips, and seemed to be thinking about something.
Conan cautiously looked around.
Meanwhile, Kaito Kuroba, disguised as Hakuba Saguru, and his maid Ami Ishihara have disappeared since returning to the villa.
"Let's split up and look for clues," Yuzuru clapped his hands and suggested. "But be careful, there might be quite a few hidden traps in this villa."
Although it wasn't mentioned in the anime, such a massive Twilight Villa is definitely not just made of gold.
"Charge! Charge! Charge!"
"Here comes the treasure!"
With Yuzuru Nan's permission, Ye Li grabbed Xiao Lan and happily ran upstairs.
They came here today to search for treasure.
Conan glanced at Kusanagi Hanyu, who was leisurely eating a plate of snacks with Ai Haibara beside him, and walked away while pondering why Hattori and the others had not yet returned.
Everyone took on their assigned tasks and began searching throughout the annex.
Kuroba Chikage was also carrying a flask of luminol reagent, spraying it here and there.
Maintaining the persona you're currently playing is a fundamental rule for phantom thieves.
Before he had even finished his plate of snacks, Yuzuru heard Ran calling from upstairs.
"Nan, come quick, I think I've found a mechanism."
Before Yuzuru could react to the shout, a figure beside him, as if being chased by a vicious dog, had already dashed towards the second floor at lightning speed.
"..."
"Has he always been this brave?"
Ai looked at the number one guinea pig that had already run up to the second floor and muttered a speechless complaint.
"Otherwise what?"
Yuzuru shrugged, unsurprised.
...
...
On the second floor, in a spacious study.
Ran and Kazuha were standing excitedly in front of a huge bookshelf, with a pile of books that had been taken down lying casually on the ground. Conan, standing on tiptoe, peered out, trying to see what was going on.
Noticing Yuzuru Nanasu walking in, Ran turned around excitedly, "Nanasu, come and see, there seems to be something here."
She pointed to a hidden compartment behind the bookshelf, her eyes shining with delight. She had discovered it while searching for clues, when she accidentally picked up a book that looked like it hadn't been touched in a long time.
