The Tree of Ahippis18
Another locker.
Ai Huihara sighed in front of the locker. The clues left by Alvin were simple and pointed out that it was a locker at a station in Tokyo. But until the detective team got on the train, they still didn't find any clues about the locker key. Although the technical difficulty of opening this type of locker is not high, they still want to abide by the law if possible...
"You can go back and check Watson's collar," the girl's voice came from above. Huiyuan Ai's pupils shrank. She looked in the direction of the voice and caught a glimpse of a determined face that was mostly covered by a baseball cap. The other person was holding a white mobile phone and seemed to be browsing something while sliding his fingers. "Cats are good friends of detectives."
"...Uncle," Huihara Ai took two steps to the side, pursing her lips tightly. The person who just reminded her was the middleman arranged by the water plant to contact Miyano Akemi, "You..."
What do you know?
Akai Tsutomu put away his phone. "Be patient, girl." He said gently, "I am not the one who is responsible for answering your questions."
"Habara," Edogawa Conan's voice came from the side, and a furry figure flashed through the zipper of the schoolbag, "I haven't found it yet--"
At the moment when Haibara Ai split, the man she was talking to disappeared without a trace. She looked around anxiously, but still couldn't find him among the crowd. "What's wrong?" Edogawa Conan ran to her side and asked vigilantly, "Is there anything wrong?"
"No," Huihara Ai's silence was fleeting, "Edogawa-kun, you block it first."
She carefully used Edogawa Conan's cover to avoid the station manager's sight and took Watson out of the bag. The cat was as well-behaved as a rag doll. The red collar was a gift placed in the cat's bag. Because the black fur was so concealed, they often put this bright collar on Watson. Haibara Ai adjusted Watson's posture and aimed the collar at the sensing area with some difficulty.
With a ticking sound, the cabinet door opened.
Conan Edogawa swallowed, reached in with his gloved hand, and took out the only item in the cabinet - a white cell phone with yellow and black marks like burnt marks on the corners. Haibara Ai frowned, feeling that this was similar to the one that Akai Mumu had in his hand before.
After they confirmed that there was nothing else in the locker, they hurriedly left the station. After returning to the car, Edogawa Conan couldn't wait to charge it and try to turn it on. "Fingerprint unlocking," the little detective studied it for a while and expressed a little regretfully, "Habara, do you have any clues--"
Watson, who was squatting beside him, tilted his head and slapped the phone with his paw. The screen immediately showed that the verification was passed.
"Cats are good friends of detectives," even in such a tense atmosphere, Huihara Ai couldn't help laughing, "Who would have thought that the fingerprint for unlocking the phone would be a cat... Ha..."
"I haven't heard of this in the detective novel," Edogawa Conan was speechless. Huihara Ai came to the screen and they watched it together. "Anyway, let's see what that person left behind..."
Haibara Ai opened a document processing app, and the pinned file name instantly caught her eye.
