Conan: The Mechanic

In the early morning, Dr. Agasa sent Chiba and Haibara Ai to the door of the Tachibana mansion.

"Children, hurry up and go back to sleep." Dr. Li urged. "Remember to lock the doors and windows."

"Well..." Qianyu pinched the bridge of her nose and nodded. "I'm so sleepy... I need to get some sleep."

"Hmm—" Haibara Ai also yawned. "sleepy……"

At this moment, Qianyu suddenly heard the sound of rustling footsteps—in terms of intensity, it seemed that it was not a human being, but a small animal, probably...

The cat Chiba and the others took in ran past and stopped by Ai Haibara-before they left, they booked a cabin for the cat, and also taught the cat to sleep in the cabin at night. And the cat has reached the age to eat solid food, so Chiba and the others handmade an automatic feeding machine for the cat and went out. (A tray transformed by a balance plus a food can, when the cat food in the tray is low to a certain level, it will trigger the mechanism, open the food can, and refill the cat food in the tray.)

"Have you woken up the little guy?" Haiyuan Ai squatted down and patted the cat's head with a smile, but her expression suddenly froze, "Huh?"

"?" The drowsiness that Qianyu originally had was instantly awakened by Haibara Ai's surprised voice. "What's wrong?"

"It's on its neck..." Haiyuan said in a mournful voice. "There are scars..."

"It must have been scratched by something, right? I have to check if it is injured." Qian Yu frowned, released the box in her hand, and came to the cat, squatting down to check. "This--"

This wound looks like a streak. It must have been something that was tightly wrapped around the cat's neck, which caused such a scar.

But they didn't find this scar on the cat's body before, did they? And they didn't put something like that on the cat that would hurt it.

"Let's go back first," Qianyu pursed her lips and said to Haibara Ai. "Go back to the room first, it must be safe there."

…………

After letting Haibara go back to the house to rest, Qianyu slowly walked in the courtyard with a traceless umbrella. The visual aid system and auditory aid system of the auxiliary unit have been fully turned on; any received visual images and bells and whistles will be directly submitted to the computing system of the auxiliary unit for investigation and calculation, in case there are any hidden agencies or enemies.

There were no footprints on the ground, so no one came over the wall—but if they came over from the front door, there would be no way...?

Chiba came to the front door and looked at the situation on the railing.

They haven't cleaned the dust on the railings for more than ten days. If someone really turned over from the main door, even if the intruder could climb over the top of the door covered with a layer of glass **** through a ladder, he would have to grab the railing and slide. down, so the railing that the intruder grabbed must have a somewhat different level of dust accumulation than the other railings.

However, no... After comparison, Chiba confirmed that the dust on the railings was completely in a normal state of deposition, and there was no trace of human invasion.

Could it be that he was just over-hearted... Qianyu sighed, and after looking around for a week, she turned around and prepared to return to the house.

Need to install monitoring facilities... This feeling of facing the unknown fear is really scary...

At this moment, Qianyu suddenly found that the curtains upstairs had been drawn - Haibara Ai was looking through the window, looking at him with some worry.

…………

"Did you find anything?" Haibara asked sadly when Qianyu returned to the house.

"No," Qianyu shook her head. "I've checked and nothing is out of the ordinary, but I'm still going to get a set of surveillance probes to supplement the safety measures."

"Do you think if someone comes to trouble us, is it the Vermouth of the organization, or the Police Department you told me about?" Ai Haibara asked softly.

"What's wrong?" Qian Yu raised her eyebrows. "If you ask me, I guess it's mostly the National Police Agency. After all, if the organization executes operations there, it will definitely touch Hoshino's intelligence network. It is impossible for him not to notify me."

"It's alright..." Haiyuan Ai shook her head.

"It's alright," Chiyu looked at Haibara Ai's eyes and comforted. "It'll be fine, trust me."

"But I'm worried," Haibara Ai also looked into Qianyu's eyes. "You and I are in the same situation as spies - the day of exposure, the time of death."

"It's okay," Qianyu squeezed a smile from the corner of her mouth. "The Police Department is definitely here for me. Even if everything is over, as long as you hide in the secret passage, you will be fine."

"I'm not worried about myself, but you!" Haibara Ai suddenly interrupted Qianyu's comfort. Immediately, she lowered her head, and Qianyu couldn't see her expression.

"As long as you're safe, that's fine," Qianyu's shocked expression lasted for a while, then changed to a smile. "That's enough for me."

"I don't need to live by myself!" Haibara Ai interrupted Qianyu again, and there was a little sob in her voice. "No matter what~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I also hope you are well! This is my only hope!"

"..." Qian Yu was stunned.

"..." Haiyuan Ai covered her face, as if adjusting her emotions, and it took a long time to sort out her emotions. "Forget it... Don't discuss this topic for now. It's almost dawn. Let's go to catch up on sleep and restore energy. There will be a sports meeting the day after tomorrow."

…………

Chiyu lay on the bed, thinking about the unusual trace on the cat.

What caused that?

——At the same time, somewhere.

"This is obviously a good opportunity to search, why should you miss it?" Judy looked at Shuichi Akai and said dissatisfied. "As long as we go in, we can conduct a detailed search and get the information we need!"

"That kid was already prepared for this," Akai Shuichi replied. "Our people handed out a warning, and someone was already monitoring the place during the first search."

"What?" Judy was shocked.

"That kid is not simple." A bit of solemnity flashed in Akai Shuichi's eyes. "It's not easy."

————The same time, another place.

[I have found their residence, and I think there is a very high probability that this is the correct address. ] The long, female fingers tapped on the keyboard and sent out such an email.

After typing the email, the owner of Finger tore open a white ice cream bag next to it.

[Give a written report, and at the same time submit the data you used to infer this for us to review, and if it passes, you can start work. 】

"Haha~" The corners of the woman's mouth twitched, and she took out the ice cream from the packaging bag. The flexible tongue rubbed the milk ice cream for a moment, and left the ice cream with a cloud of milky white liquid.
