Chapter 425: The Store I Went Shopping

Abandoned buildings near Mihua Commercial Street before noon on Monday, May 5.

The head of Yuantai led the other three members of the detective team, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Conan, to run back to the abandoned building. After entering it, they found a carrying basket, Xiaohong's carrying basket.

Mitsuhiko asked, "Will Xiaohong be here?"

"Then we need to find out quickly." Ayumi said, pointing to a demolition sign and said, "I heard that the demolition will start this afternoon."

Conan said, "So there's not much time left now."

"Let's go, Boys Detective Team." Yuantai walked in first, followed by Mitsuhiko and Bumi.

Conan sighed, followed in, then looked at the floor and reminded: "The floor is very fragile, everyone should be careful."

At the same moment, on the commercial street.

A patrol car stopped at the scene where the car hit a street light, and police officer Miyamoto Yumi got down from above, "Really, you can encounter incidents nearby after lunch."...

Soon after, in the abandoned building.

Yuan Tai found that Xiaohong didn't seem to be on the first floor, and said, "He doesn't seem to be here, let's climb up the stairs we saw just now to have a look."

The four members of the detective team turned back to climb the stairs, but halfway up the stairs, they found that a large section of the stairs had collapsed. Conan said, "It's impossible to go up here, which means that there will be no one on it."

Ayumi asked, "Then where will Xiaohong be?"

"The basement," Mitsuhiko said, "there must be a basement here."

Soon after, the team of detectives found the entrance to the basement and entered the basement.

Yuan Tai asked: "Will Xiaohong really be in this place?"

Mitsuhiko shouted, "Xiaohong, are you here?"

"It's so dark here, you can't see anything." Ayumi said, and then realized that something had been kicked, and after a closer look, Xiao Hiroshi was lying at his feet, and immediately screamed, "Xiao Hiroshi!" Looking again, he found A grown man lay beside Xiao Hiroshi and screamed again.

Conan hurried forward to check their situation.

Yuan Tai asked with some fear: "Dead, are you dead?"

"No, won't it?" Mitsuhiko asked in a panic.

"Xiaohong is fine, he still has a pulse, and the smell of anesthesia on his face, it seems that it was brought by a coma, and now he just passed out." Conan said, "But this man has been dead for a while Yeah, it looks like he was hit in the head from behind."

Yuan Tai asked: "But why is there a body in this place?"

Mitsuhiko said: "That's right, why did the person who kidnapped Xiaohong put Xiaohong here? He didn't see the body for no reason?"

"Because the person who kidnapped Xiaohong was the murderer of this murder," Conan said, "He killed people here because he thought the place would be demolished soon. But the murderer didn't expect Xiaohong to walk in when he committed the crime. Although Xiaohong's subsequent actions do not look like he witnessed the murder process at all. But for the murderer, as long as he is seen by anyone, he can't feel at ease, so he will go around to the commercial street first. Made two accidents and he failed, so the killer brought Hiro here to make it look like an accident."

At this time, a voice sounded from the basement door, "You are right."

"Not good!" Conan was shocked,

Immediately rushed to the outside, the detective team three hurriedly followed, but the four were a step too late, and could only watch helplessly as the door was closed.

"You little brats actually have the ability to find this place, but it's over here." The person outside the door said loudly, and then fell silent, apparently leaving.

Mitsuhiko shouted in fear: "That guy wants to kill us too."

"What! No way?" Ayumi and Yuanta shouted.

"It looks like this." Conan pushed the door hard but didn't open it, "Yuantai, come and help."

However, with Yuantai still unable to open the door, Conan asked: "By the way, do you have your badges?" It turned out that Yuantai and the other three were the same as himself, and they didn't bring them either.

Conan said: "Let's find out if there is another way out."

Soon after, the four members of the detective team found that there was no way out here, and the roar of machines came from outside.

Conan listened carefully to the sound outside, like the sound of a big iron ball demolition machine, and thought, it would be great if it could shake a road.

At this time, the big iron ball started to move, shaking the broken stones, and the whole building seemed to collapse at any time. Ayumi was so frightened that she cried, "I don't want it, I don't want to die in this place, Dad!"

"Ayumi, calm down." Conan said.

Yuan Tai said to Conan: "It's all your fault, it's all because you didn't call the police immediately."

Mitsuhiko said: "But it's you Yuantai who came here first."

"That, that's because..." Yuan Tai was speechless.

"Don't talk." Conan said, "I seem to hear the sound of water." He turned around in the basement.

"Sound of water?" Yuan Tai asked, "Is the water pipe broken?"

Mitsuhiko said: "The water here has stopped long ago."

"It's the sewer." Conan stood in front of a crack and exclaimed in surprise, "We might still be saved. Genta, Mitsuhiko, take Xiaohong with you."...

On the other hand, Lan saw that the time was past one o'clock in the afternoon, but Conan hadn't come yet, so she was a little worried, so she dragged Maori out of Mihua Park to the commercial street, and then heard the sound of the building collapsing, and followed the sound to find it. ...

Outside the abandoned building, a middle-aged man watched the abandoned building slowly collapsed by the big iron ball, showing a relieved smile, then turned around and wanted to leave here, but did not want a sewer cover at his feet to be pushed open from below. A fat child crawled out, and the middle-aged man immediately showed a panicked expression.

It was Genta who came up, and Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Conan also followed him out.

Conan said to the middle-aged man: "It seems that the prisoner is you."

Mitsuhiko smiled and said, "Let's scare you."

Ayumi smiled and said, "Don't underestimate us."

Yuan Tai smiled and said, "We are from the Boys' Detective Team."

"It's a pity, uncle, although you originally planned to put us under the whole building together with that body, but thanks to the crooked door of the basement, the walls of the basement have collapsed long ago, the basement There is a sewer not far outside," Conan said with a smile, "so I came out again."

"Stop talking, Conan," Ayumi said, "Go and call someone to bring Xiao Hiro up." Then he found Xiao Hiroshi climbing up from the sewer by himself, and shouted in surprise, "Xiao Hiroshi!"

Mitsuhiko smiled and said, "It's great that you're awake."

Xiaohong took out his shopping list and smiled at the middle-aged man, "It's great that you're still here, Uncle. I want fried tofu and a toothbrush."

Seeing that the middle-aged man was stunned, Yuan Tai asked, "What's going on, what's going on?"

"By the way, Uncle," Ayumi said, "You are the manager of the convenience store that was here."

"That's right." The middle-aged man said painfully, "But I was cheated by a vicious loan shark, and afterwards I was left with a debt that I would never pay off for the rest of my life. My shop was robbed by the loan shark. I couldn’t open it, and even my wife left me with their children. I killed the loan shark.” Then he said with a mockery, “Anyway, it won’t be as popular as the store in the commercial street. people will forget about this store in no time.”

"But Xiaohong still remembers your store." Conan said, "Whenever he thinks of shopping, he thinks of your store, that's why he came here."

"So that's how it is." The middle-aged man's expression changed.

Conan accused: "But you, you just want to kill Xiaohong."

"I'm sorry, little brother," the middle-aged man knelt in front of Xiao Hong and cried bitterly, "everything is my fault."

At this time, Lan pulled Maori over, seeing that Conan and the others were covered in dust and mud, and smelled a strange smell when they got close, Lan couldn't help but shouted: "Conan, you can do it all!" What is it!"

Looking at the open sewer cover next to him, Maori said angrily, "What else can I do? Dive into the sewer."

Genta raised his right hand and shouted: "Boys of Detectives, big victory!" Seeing that Ayumi and Mitsuhiko immediately agreed, but Conan didn't move, he grabbed Conan's hand with his left hand and raised it up.

Maori was taken aback, and then said: "I'm going to go back and take a bath and have a drink, and then I'll go to sleep."

"Wait a minute, uncle, there is an incident," Conan said.

"Go, what's going on with you little brats." Mao Li left without looking back.

Lan said: "What's the matter, you tell me, I'll tell him." He took out a handkerchief and wiped the children's faces.

Genta, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko told the incident one by one.

Glancing at the nearby ruins, thinking about the children being crushed underneath, Queen Lan said in fear, "It's really scary that this kind of thing happened." Then she praised, "You are really amazing." Then she spoke softly to the four detectives. The man said, "However, you are all a group of children. Next time you have something to inform the adults, do you understand?"

"Yes." Genta, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko were not as excited as before.

Conan thought to himself, it would be nice if he would really remember. Then he found that Lan and the detective team were all looking at him, and he came to his senses and responded.

Lan said: "I'll call the police right away, you guys wait here." Then he went to the phone booth.

After waiting for a while, Ayumi found that Hiro had disappeared again, looked around and found Hiro walking towards the commercial street, and immediately greeted Conan and the others.

Mitsuhiko said, "He must have gone shopping." Then he asked, "What are the two left?"

Ayumi said, "It's fried tofu and a toothbrush."

Yuan Tai said: "Then let's hurry up and shoot."

Ayumi asked: "But what should this person do?"

The middle-aged man said, "I won't leave here."

Looking into the distance, Ayumi said: "Ah, Sister Lan is back, and there is a patrol car."

"It seems that we don't need to watch him here." Conan shouted, "Okay, the Boys Detective Team has set off." After saying that, he ran away first, and the three members of the detective team followed.

At this time, the horn of the patrol car blared, "Cough! The kid in the blue suit and gray shorts in front please stop."

uh, mean me? Conan stopped and said to the three detectives, "Go first, I'll be right there." Then he turned around and ran back.

Mitsuhiko asked, "What should I do?"

Yuan Tai said: "There is no other way, let's do the task first."

Ayumi said, "Then let's go."

And Conan ran close to the patrol car and found that it was the police officer Yumei, who immediately had a bad feeling. ...
