In the dark and damp underground space, Sudeng Yunzou led everyone to trigger the mechanism and entered a long passage, and the sound of water flow could be faintly heard.

"Kiroto," Conan found Gao Cheng behind him, and whispered, "Did you find out just now? That woman should be..."

"Leave it alone."

Gao Cheng shook his head slightly, and looked at the wooden boards on the top of the passage by the light of the flashlight.

"The floor here is wet, there is water..." Ayumi who was walking in front suddenly shouted.

"It's because the boards on the top are misaligned." Sudou Yunzou looked at the water leak on the ceiling. "It is said that there was an earthquake here before, and the foundation of the house was shaken, so groundwater gushed out..."

"earthquake?"

"Hmph," the old woman laughed, "Just like what Yoshitakaemon said, maybe this is Nioh-sama's anger. It's better not to look for any treasure, and go back quickly!"

"You're the old lady who wants to go back, right?" The short-haired woman walked over the shady old lady, ignoring the water-soaked floor.

"Hey, Kido," Xiao Ai, who was carrying Yujing Terushang's notebook, retreated to Gao Cheng's side, "The notebook seems to be dry, 'meeting a bad guy...will be killed...if you don't put the piece you found The stone will be killed if it is hidden...by the poisonous rat who wants to kill his companions and steal the treasure...', the following page was torn off..."

Conan frowned slightly: "So the poisonous rat is..."

"It's hard to say until the end."

Gao Cheng stepped forward and continued to keep up with Sudeng Yunzo.

After seeing so much and hearing so much, a thread gradually became connected in his mind.

The treasure, the treasure hunter who was killed by his companions, Kidd mentioned in the notes...

If he wasn't mistaken, Kidd might have been here before, and he had unlocked the code and found the treasure, but there seemed to be some accident in the middle.

"Boom!" Suddenly there was a sound of waterfalls flowing ahead, and eight red waterfalls gushed out of the caves outside the passage and gathered together, steaming.

"It's a hot spring waterfall..."

The people descended the stone steps,

Follow Sudo Unzo to find the exit hidden by steam.

"Why is the water red?" Yuan Tai walked to the pool in astonishment.

"Maybe it contains more iron."

Gao Cheng crossed his hands and looked at the forked water flow. Like the waterfall, there are a total of eight forked paths leading to the unknown cave.

"City... this little brother, the exit is here." The old lady stood by the exit and reminded.

"Wait a minute first," Gao Cheng led Conan to look around, "I remember you in Japan... there is a legendary monster in Japan called Yamato no Orochi, right?"

"Hachigi no Orochi?"

"That's right," Conan continued, "it's the giant snake with eight heads and eight tails in the legend. You should have heard of it? The story about the younger brother of Amaterasu who got drunk and subdued a monster in order to help Qi Inada Ji. , What came out of the tail of Yamato no Orochi was the sword of the sky, which was later called the grass pheasant sword."

"so……"

Sudeng Yunzo suddenly looked at the whole hot spring with hindsight.

"Ju, it's Yagi snake, the waterfall is the head of the snake, and the tributary is the tail? Damn, I didn't find it when I passed by here!"

"In this case, the Grass Pheasant Sword is somewhere in the tributary?"

"Yes, the myth says that the sword is the tail that appears in the middle, so it is either the fourth or the fifth branch, and there should be a grass pheasant sword hidden in it..."

"Hey, are you going to dive into the hot spring?" Sudou Yunzo swallowed softly while looking at Conan who was groping.

Is this really just a bunch of normal kids? I am willing to be burdened like this...

"Little devil," the old woman urged, "it's just a coincidence, if the valley below is the bottom, people will die..."

"No," Conan walked to the side of the stone wall to check, "There seems to be a mechanism here."

"Brat!"

"Crack!"

Conan inspected for a while, then calmly pressed a stone, and suddenly the water in a tributary in the middle gradually became shallower, and stopped when a stone slab was pushed up, revealing a dark cave at the end.

"There is no water!" Yuan Tai walked towards the dry passage in surprise, "It seems that you can go in..."

"Yuan Tai!"

"Step aside!!"

The old woman pushed Yuantai away violently, and rushed into the cave as if possessed.

"Haha! It's really the Grass Pheasant Sword!"

"What are you doing?" the short-haired girl snorted coldly, "This old woman really came here for the treasure!"

The inside of the cave was also a basement, and there was a stone sword stuck on the stone tablet opposite, but the old woman didn't manage to rush over, but just stepped into the stone room when she was hit by flying axes from all directions, and was almost torn into pieces.

Gao Cheng followed behind the crowd, and he saw the old woman lying on the ground gasping for breath at a glance.

Facing the dangerous predicament, Conan walked into the stone room with ease, grabbed the hidden handle on the top when the flying ax came from all sides, and jumped across the stone room to the stone tablet with the returning flying axe.

"What's the word on it?" Gao Cheng asked.

"Dragon, the word 'Dragon' is engraved on the sword."

Conan saw Shi Jian, and silently returned to everyone with the throwing axe.

"Dragon?" Sudou Yunzo looked nervously at Conan, "Little friend, do you have any ideas? Yong, Yan, and dragons..."

"Isn't it written on that tombstone?" Conan thought for a while and smiled, "'Confused people, enshrine to me an artifact'... So the key is Sanshui, Ei, En and Ryu who belonged to Misui Kichimataemon. If you add Sanshui..."

"Ying, Dan, Taki?"

After a while, everyone followed Sudeng Yunzo and left the ground, appearing outside the old house, thinking hard about the meaning of the code.

"Okay, it's just that Yoshitami is just joking," the old woman muttered and said to Yekong, "It's so late, hurry up and go down the mountain, this kind of ghost place shouldn't be here at all..."

"That's right," the short-haired girl agreed, "I'm leaving here..."

"Don't be so careful," Gao Cheng called to stop them, "I think you should all unlock the codes, right?"

The short-haired girl stopped with a slightly changed face: "How could it be..."

"If not, why do you want to send other people away?" Gao Cheng laughed, "You don't seem like treasure hunters who give up so easily..."

The short-haired woman's eyes trembled: "Hmph, as expected of the famous detective Kido Kosei... This kind of secret code is really hard for you, since it's like this, there's nothing to hide."

Xiao Ai glanced at Gao Cheng lightly.

It's nothing to others, it's strange that Gao Cheng can unlock the password...

"That's right," Xiao Ai walked up to Gao Cheng and met the short-haired woman's gaze, "Now that I know the key information, there is nothing to hide about the secret code. Mercury is the closest to the sun, and old people are bearded carps. The land is where the sound of the water never stops, that is to say, the treasure is right next to a waterfall in fresh water where many carp swim..."

"Little sister is very good," the short-haired girl walked to the edge of the pond and waterfall noncommittally, "However, it seems that we have been working in vain. It seems that that guy has preempted us. Look here."

"A card nailed to a stone with a knife...it's Kaitou Kid!"

Sudeng Yunzo sighed regretfully: "It was actually taken a step ahead by that guy!"

"Kidd?"

Gao Cheng quietly walked to the side, and also found a card that said "The Stone of King Ren has been worshiped".

Glancing over the treasure hunters who were about to leave, Gao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you going to give up now? I think the treasure should not have been taken away by Kidd..."

"What?!" The old woman's expression changed drastically, and everyone looked at Gao Cheng together.

"Not taken by Kidd? What, what does this mean, Detective Kido?"
