Chapter 59



Below was a landslide and fire caused by the explosion. Jiang Lai ran up before the fire and smoke rushed up. The cell phone rang, and Jiang Lai ran while answering the call.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, Matsuda. Jingguang reminded me at the last minute, and I ran up." Jiang Lai said in a calm tone, "Don't worry about me, just retreat first. I'll find a way out later."

Matsuda Jinpei on the other side was not at peace. Just as he was about to leave with the child in his arms, a loud explosion suddenly occurred behind him, causing his heart to skip a beat!

——Jiang Lai is still behind!!

The people around were frightened and screaming and running away. Only Matsuda Jinpei felt his hands and feet getting cold. He took a few deep breaths before he dared to try to call Jiang Lai.

If he had been behind, if he had picked up the child faster, if he had not let go of those who slipped through the net at the very beginning, wouldn't it be...

With complicated thoughts running through his mind, Jinpei Matsuda gripped the phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white. It was not until the call was connected and he heard a steady and familiar voice from the other end that his anxious heart finally settled down a little.

"The road leading down has been cut off, how are you going to get out?" Matsuda Jinpei's magnetic and mature voice was still trembling a little at this time.

"Well, let's go up, there will be a way." Jiang Lai said with a smile, "And Conan and the Phantom Thief Kid are still on the top floor - anyway, hang up first! It's a bit inconvenient to run away with the phone."

"Hello, wait..." Before Jinpei Matsuda could finish his words, the other party hung up the phone.

Maybe evacuation is not that easy...but at this moment, it seems that I really can't help him.

Matsuda Jinpei gritted his teeth. He handed the unconscious child to the staff, saying that he was a lost and sleeping child that was found during the evacuation, and then he continued to walk forward holding the phone.

Damn it...If the other person died here, he would never be able to rest in peace for the rest of his life!

The phone numbers in his memory were still clear at this moment. Matsuda Jinpei paused and called Hagiwara Kenji - they had not been in touch since they said goodbye in the abandoned building.

My current number was a stranger to the other party. When the call was answered, a familiar voice came from the other side, with a polite and distant tone: "Hello, this is Kenji Hagiwara."

"..." Matsuda Jinpei was in a daze for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said, "There are still people in the Jinmi Building who cannot be evacuated... Jiang Lai is still inside! Please send someone to help as soon as possible!"

The identity revealed by his voice and the information revealed in his words were undoubtedly a double shock to Kenji Hagiwara!

Kenji Hagiwara almost couldn't help shouting out the name of the person opposite him, but he was still paying attention to his colleagues around him, so he took a deep breath and confirmed again: "Please tell me more details... sir."

Inside the building.

There were three people on the top floor at this time, Kuroba Kaito, Conan and the scar-faced man - this guy actually woke up and ran to the top floor!

Just before the explosion, Conan and Kuroba Kaito were engaged in their daily pursuit and fighting. Conan's anesthetic needle and Kid's poker gun were used up in the interaction just now.

Just as Conan jumped back to dodge Kid's last poker, a scar-faced man suddenly appeared at the staircase behind him!

"Be careful!" Hei Yu Kaito immediately reminded, and Conan rolled on the ground to avoid the attack of the scar-faced man at the critical moment!

The scar-faced man's actions at this moment were a bit like an indiscriminate revenge attack in an angry state. Although he didn't know that it was Conan and Kidd outside at the time, it did not affect him attacking them with a sharp knife.

Then there was an explosion, but the scarred man didn't seem to care at all. He continued to chase Conan and Kid and hack at them.

The opponent's intensive attack made them only able to dodge and unable to fight back. Kuroba Kaito hugged Conan and dodged to the right, but found that the opponent also slashed at him with a knife - it was a deliberate fake move! !

Kuroba was ready to block the attack, but a gunshot rang in his ears!

There were red blood splashing in front of his eyes. Heiyu Kuaidou stared blankly at the scarred man beside him falling to the ground, with bright red blood flowing out of his head.

Conan's pupils also shrank. He looked up and forward.

The black-haired young man held a gun in his hand, with the black muzzle pointing forward. His expression was calm and focused, and then he lowered his arm and walked in one step at a time.

"Sure enough, I should have gotten rid of this guy at that time." Jiang Lai exhaled, shook the gun, and then put it away, "It would also save us from any unexpected trouble later."

"..." The soul body Zhu Fu Jingguang did not expect Jiang Lai to shoot so efficiently. He looked stunned for a rare moment, as if he felt that the young man in front of him became very strange for a moment.

He stared at Jiang Lai with his blue-gray upturned eyes. The words he wanted to say rose to his throat, but the moment he saw Jiang Lai's eyes, he could not say anything.

Although they were already very familiar with each other, Zhu Fu Jingguang suddenly understood at this moment -

There is no need to always treat the other person as a harmless little white rabbit that needs care. The other person really has claws and teeth, hidden under his gentle and cheerful shell.

Conan and Kuroba Kaito were both stunned. They just stared at the approaching black-haired young man. The other party smiled brightly at them: "Hi, are you okay?"

"...Jiang, Jiang Lai brother?"

"Yeah, it's me." Jiang Lai stopped in front of them and glanced at the scarred man. "When the fire starts, it will probably destroy the bodies and all traces."

“…”

The black-haired young man tilted his head slightly and said, "By the way...you two won't report me, right? Even though you don't have any evidence." He raised the corner of his mouth, "But don't repay kindness with enmity. I saved you once."

Although it was a smiling face, there was a faint sense of oppression and murderous intent.

"..." Conan and Kuroba Kaito both fell into a brief period of brain blankness and just nodded subconsciously.

"That's good~" Jiang Lai quickly gathered his momentum and didn't intend to continue to scare them, so he returned to his normal state and said, "Okay, next we should think about how to escape from here."

"...Why did you come up again?" Conan asked with an unsure mood.

"Hey?" Jiang Lai said half-seriously, "I'm concerned about you. After all, there was an explosion."

"..." Is this true? Did the other party deliberately give up the way to escape and come to find them?

Are you kidding me? The other party's identity and personality are obviously... Conan's thoughts suddenly stopped. However, the other party did save them just now, even at the cost of exposing himself.

The detective felt somewhat confused. He really couldn't understand or figure out Jiang Lai anymore.

There was another loud explosion downstairs, and thick black smoke was creeping up the stairs to the top floor, with a pungent smell every time you breathed in.

——Time is limited, we can’t delay any longer!

"How many people can your hang glider carry?" Jiang Lai looked at Heiyu Kuaidou with a calm expression and asked.

Kuroba Kaito hesitated for a moment and said, "At most, I can only bring one person."

"..." As expected. In fact, Jiang Lai had expected this result, so he just said casually, "Next time, please try to upgrade the load-bearing capacity, Mr. Thief."

"Okay, you've heard the new password before, but I still remember it." Jiang Lai said quickly, "Then Kidd, carry Conan and go quickly."

Eh? Conan subconsciously asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Of course I have to find another way. The hang glider can't carry two people." Jiang Lai frowned, "What's the matter, Detective? Do you want me to leave you behind and let Kidd take me away?"

Without waiting for Conan and Kuroba Kaito to say anything, Jiang Lai continued, "Okay, let's stop chatting here. Let's just arrange it like that. You guys go first."

"..." Hei Yu Kuai Dou paused for a second, "Okay...you should be careful too."

At this point, Conan no longer cared about the exposure issue. He directly handed Jiang Lai his retractable belt and said, "This belt is specially developed and has a strong retractable ability. Maybe you can use it."

Jiang Lai certainly didn't refuse: "Okay. I'll return it to you when I get out."

"..." Conan pursed his lips, his sapphire eyes were firm, "Please, you must come back." No matter whether Jiang Lai's identity is good or bad, he doesn't want him to die here.

"Okay, with the blessing of the child of destiny, I will definitely return safely." Jiang Lai said half-jokingly, "No matter what, I have to return this high-tech belt to you."

There was no time to continue chatting, Hei Yu quickly adjusted his equipment and got ready, hugged Conan, and signaled Jiang Lai that he could open the window.

Jiang Lai quickly entered the password, and he helped to hold up the window to prevent it from closing automatically due to the internal and external pressure.

"Goodbye." Jiang Lai said goodbye to them in a calm tone.

Conan poked his head out from Kid's arms, and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just whispered, "...Jiang Lai."

"It's Brother Jiang Lai." The black-haired young man straightened his eyebrows and waved his hand, "Okay, don't be like this. See you later. Bye bye~"

Kuroba Kaito held Conan in his arms, counting five seconds in his heart, and before that, he jumped down with Conan in his arms! With his wings spread out, he looked like a big white bird, escaping from the prison of the sea of ​​fire with the hope of life.

Almost within a second of Hei Yu Kuai Dou flying out, the window closed automatically. In the closed environment, the smell of smoke became even more pungent, causing Jiang Lai to cough twice.

"What are you going to do, Jiang Lai?" Zhu Fu Jingguang floated to Jiang Lai's side, his face serious and a little anxious, "You must leave here quickly! The fire is about to burn up!"

Jiang Lai glanced down from the closed window and said, "I plan to use this retractable belt, whether it's to call for the password or to crack it on the spot - jump from a window to the corridor. But this little rooftop is a bit off."

"I think I have to go down one floor at least." Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief.
