Chapter 43 Huiyuan Ai VS Xiaohei
From this afternoon till now, Dong Ye Ning first read the transcript and surveillance video of Masuo Kayo, and then went to visit her.
He concluded that this woman had something to hide, but he did not have any substantial evidence.
The investigation of his colleagues has not yet produced any results, and this case will most likely be dragged on for a long time.
However, no matter how much he wants to improve, he should go home and rest now.
In terms of performance alone, there are those who successfully promoted by performance, such as Yamamura Sou, and those who failed to be promoted by performance, such as Megure Jusan.
This matter still depends on chance.
Sister Tongzi never revealed how she wanted to circumvent the existing promotion system, so Dong Ye Ning could only do what he could step by step.
When he returned home, he usually had a bento as a midnight snack and a bottle of wisp to help him sleep.
Speaking of which, he now has a little money on hand, with a total of 1.5 million in bonuses from the headquarters and extra bonuses. How about getting some other wine to drink?
Well... let's talk about it later!
At the same time
Ai Huihara and others also slept in the guest room that was arranged.
But no one really slept.
If the phone is not repaired, the police will not come. If the police do not come, it means that there is no way to win by waiting.
Since the hidden person has already taken action and cut off their contact with the outside world, it basically means that the other party intends to solve everything at once.
Ai Huihara really can't understand why it was fine here before she came, but there was a life-and-death crisis immediately after she came.
After thinking about it, she can only attribute the reason to Conan accidentally triggering the mechanism, causing the other party to continue to take action.
As for the mechanism, she actually has some clues.
She found it not long after Conan disappeared in the afternoon, but she was stopped by others when she was about to restart the switch, and she didn't have a chance to try again later.
Now is a very good opportunity.
But does she really want to rush out alone?
Can she find Edogawa smoothly and seize the opportunity after going out?
Or, just use herself as bait to lure the other party out, and then let Dr. Agasa and the three children ambush the other party together.
When she subdued the criminal at Ayumi's house yesterday, she had cooperated with Genta and Mitsuhiko. If they were targeting an adult with premeditation, their chances of winning were not small.
Just as she was thinking, she heard a conversation outside the door.
"Grandma, why are you still here so late?"
"My daughter hasn't come yet, I'm going to pick her up."
"Leave your mother's affairs to us, you should go back to your room and have a good rest."
Because the door was closed, the conversation was very quiet.
Huihara Ai couldn't help but frown.
It seemed that the people talking outside the door were the old lady who was said to have Alzheimer's disease and the young master of this family.
"It's strange, we live in the guest room, even if she went to pick up her daughter according to her past memory, she shouldn't have come here, right?"
"No matter what, it's more reasonable to go to the main door downstairs."
Wait...
Huihara Ai suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be that there was something wrong with this old lady?
Indeed, the only person who was out of sight most of the time was this old lady.
Considering that no one else in the restaurant had any problems, the possibility that the old lady had problems naturally increased accordingly.
The other party was not only the wife of the master who designed the castle and the mechanism, but also had so many years to explore the mechanism. It would be easy to sneak attack and knock out or even kill Edogawa.
But the other party was just a disabled old lady who could only move in a wheelchair. This was the biggest contradiction.
The room was so quiet that you could hear the air flow.
Huiyuan Ai suddenly chuckled, "Exclude all the impossible, and the remaining ones, even if they are impossible, are the truth. Right, detective?"
The old lady might be pretending to be disabled, or even she might not be the original old lady, but Huiyuan Ai didn't need to consider these.
She only needed to eliminate those impossible points and find the only conclusion.
After all, the other party had revealed enough doubts, and she only needed to look for them again...hiss~~yes.
Huiyuan Ai suddenly thought of the scene when she first met the old lady.
The other party once said: "I have long been accustomed to the days without him. It's just like the pattern of banknotes and the size of passports have changed. I was not used to it at first, but after a while, I felt nothing strange."
How can you, who haven't been abroad for more than ten years, know that the size of the passport has changed?
And I think you probably haven't had the opportunity to use or see coins in these years of living a luxurious life without going out?
Another thing, when she heard that Dr. Agasa was a scientist, she immediately expressed her hope that the other party could solve the mystery of the treasure in the castle.
"Is it you...?"
The more Huiyuan Ai thought about it, the more she felt that there was a big problem with the other party. In comparison, the others were just normal.
Okay, that's it!
She or the doctor will lure the other party to take action, and then the others will ambush and subdue him!
If it's a real old lady, it will be easy and stress-free.
If it's not an old lady but a young man pretending to be one, it's not without experience. Inspector Megure said that the guy who broke into Ayumi's house was tall and strong!
And the person pretending to be an old lady must be a woman, and women do not have an advantage in terms of strength.
With a person like Yuan Tai whose quality determines strength, there is only one word: stable!
Suddenly.
There was a light sound of a door opening.
Ai Haibara was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly raised her head, just in time to see Genta's butt disappear at the door.
Turning her head, where are the three little ones here?
"These three children...!"
Ai Haibara threw back the quilt, woke up Dr. Agasa first, and then chased them out together.
Fortunately, it was too dark outside and the three little ones walked slowly, so they were caught up by Ai Haibara in a few seconds.
Things like scolding children should be left to Dr. Agasa, but the three little ones have always had their own way of being stubborn.
As soon as the reason of "caring about Conan" was brought out, Dr. Agasa was speechless.
Now Ai Haibara was not sure whether the old lady had left. If the other party came here on purpose, it must be for a purpose, and the possibility of returning is very high.
So she couldn't tell her plan directly now.
After thinking for a while, she turned cold and said, "Let's go back to the room first. I know where Edogawa is, who the criminal is, and the target person. I have also found the secret passage. The most important thing is that I have also cracked the location of the so-called treasure."
"In addition, I have a complete plan. You will look for it separately according to what I said later."
"Now, let's go back to the room and make arrangements. You must remember your respective tasks, otherwise you will die."
Graybara Ai said it seriously, and the three children believed it, and Dr. Agasa also believed it.
So everyone walked towards the guest room together.
Graybara Ai secretly stared at the end of the corridor opposite, with a barely detectable smile at the corner of her mouth.
Now it depends on whether the other party will take the bait.
If not, I will take people to the secret passage at dawn.
Other things may be fake, but I really know the entrance to the secret passage!
