Chapter 1117 Chapter 1125 [Case Closed]
Above the basement, in a hidden corner on the first floor.
Considering that the construction team might enter the building soon, Jiang Xia subconsciously knocked the person a little harder this time.
Nishimura Akiichi was a 8-foot tall man, but in reality he was not as tough as he looked. Only the first few howls were particularly miserable.
By the time the crane outside stopped operating, his eyes had rolled back and he was no longer as energetic as before. After a while, he lay flat on the ground without even struggling.
"You fainted so quickly, you must be faking it."
Jiang Xia knocked a few more times, then stopped the baton suspiciously and poked the man on the ground with it, but Nishimura Akira had no reaction at all.
Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, looking at the tip of the baton thoughtfully: I wonder if I can ask Dr. Agasa to add an electric shock function to enrich the user experience of the baton.
"..." Well, Dr. Agasa might not agree. I'd better get some relevant books and let Matsuda Jinpei study them overtime...
Vermouth stood by with her arms folded and watched.
Seeing Jiang Xia's dissatisfied look, she squatted down, pulled Nishimura Akira to look at him, and said with a little regret: "He is indeed fainted."
Thinking of Nishimura Akira's plan to lock Conan in the building and crush him to death, and also thinking of Jiang Xia beating people with a stick just now, Vermouth actually felt quite comfortable.
It’s a pity that I can’t say it out loud.
Not only that, in order to prevent Wu Zuo from noticing the clues, she also said in a very "Vermouth" way, half tentatively and half mockingly: "You are very special to those children. It seems that you have done many "heroic deeds" for them in the past - is this the legendary conscience that has not been extinguished?"
Jiang Xia snorted, as if it was a matter of course: "Children are precious treasures. It is a waste to let them die in the hands of such trash. Of course I have to help if I can. And I have always had a conscience."
Vermouth glanced at his righteous look and remembered the information about Uzo that Gin had sent her before. The unlucky child was stuffed into a bag and cremated by Fold after he had just helped Uzo.
Think about the kid downstairs who has narrowly escaped death several times...
“…”
…
The other side.
One minute ago.
After a brief discussion with the construction team, Mao Lilan borrowed a spare safety helmet and entered the building.
They weren't actually sure where the naughty kids were.
However, after entering the building, the leader of the construction team listened for a while, and his eyes suddenly fell in one direction. He hesitated and said: "I seem to hear strange movements over there... Is there anyone there?"
In fact, Mao Lilan had heard it a long time ago. Although the sound was not clear due to several walls, the bang bang bang rhythm sounded inexplicably familiar.
Mao Lilan: "..." Based on experience, there is a high probability that the criminals trapped the children and tried to escape, but unfortunately they were intercepted by Jiang Xia on the way and were being dragged away and hidden somewhere.
Doctor Shinde didn't even try to stop him... But come to think of it, although Doctor Shinde is tall, he looks very weak, so maybe he can't be stopped at all...
Scenes of Jiang Xia beating people flashed through Mao Lilan's mind, and her eyes couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
Seeing the construction team leader trying to find the source of the sound, she instinctively grabbed him and said, "In the basement—the children must be in the basement!"
They happened to pass a fork in the road, which went diagonally downward and was the entrance to the basement.
Mao Lilan ran down first.
The others didn't know where to go, and when they saw Mao Lilan speaking so loudly and looking very confident, they all followed her downstairs.
…
Then I saw a tightly closed iron door in front of me.
"It's locked." The construction team leader took a closer look and turned to leave, "I'll go get an unlocker..."
boom--!
Mao Lilan has already kicked him.
The door wasn't open, but it was visibly sunken inward.
Mao Lilan jumped back a bit, put down her numb legs, and said in surprise: "This door is so solid."
“…”
A huge bang echoed in the corridor. The construction team was shocked for a moment before they came to their senses: "This reinforced warehouse door is hard to break open. Let's go back and get it..."
Mao Lilan's ears twitched, fearing that on their way back, they would accidentally run into Jiang Xia who was dragging a prisoner to dump a corpse... ahem, dumping a prisoner. She quietly rejected him, "No, no."
As he spoke, he kicked it quickly and seriously.
There was a loud bang.
This time, the entire door frame fell off the wall, and the door and frame fell to the ground, splashing a thick cloud of dust.
Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief, covered her mouth and nose and ran into the basement: "Conan? Are you here?"
Behind her, the workers looked at her legs, then at the door on the ground, and finally at the door frame that was dropping pieces of dirt and rocks: "..."
"…This building is too old. The walls must not be strong enough."
"After all, it's going to be demolished. The door might be broken and the surrounding area might be rusted, so..."
A group of strong men gathered together, whispered for a while, and barely saved their correct understanding of "slender high school girl".
…
When Mao Lilan kicked the door, Conan had already experienced enough to lead people away from the door, so no one was accidentally injured by the door.
The children were successfully rescued and their bodies were found.
It wasn't long before the police arrived at the scene.
The team leader, Miwako Sato, pushed the door and got out of the car, then ran quickly into the yard where the abandoned building was.
The moment she entered the door, she felt something crawling towards her from the corner of her eye.
“…”
Before she could see clearly what it was, Sato Miwako had already skillfully raised her leg, dodged the man who was trying to throw himself into the police's arms, and retreated to the side.
After doing all this, she lowered her head and saw that it was indeed a burly man with a bruised face and nose.
The strong man just woke up from a coma and found that the devil who stepped on him was gone. He looked up and saw the police, and was immediately moved and said: "I plead guilty! Take me to the Metropolitan Police Department! Go right now!"
“……”Officer Sato’s eyes twitched slightly and he raised his hand.
Two criminal police officers who had also cooperated with Jiang Xia came running over and dragged the man into the car skillfully.
Sato Miwako looked around and saw Jiang Xia and another person walking towards the intersection from afar.
"..." Heh, you've made progress. You even know not to stay at the scene after beating someone up, but to take a detour and pretend to have just arrived...
…
Although the process was not harmonious, it was still a heroic act, and Nishimura Akira recovered quickly. The police certainly did not deliberately make trouble for the detective and quickly took him away.
Vermouth stood in the shade of the tree, watching Conan whispering to Jiang Xia about the case from a distance. She found that the cool guy seemed very happy, as if he was enjoying the same joy as when he successfully solved a case independently for the first time.
Vermouth: “…” It seems that cool guy really likes this gift from Uzo… I hope he will never discover the truth behind it.
