Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 564: Unconquerable Treasure

"If the diamonds were really taken away," Gao Cheng observed the pond with his back turned to the crowd, "that bumbling guy would definitely not leave so easily, and..."

"And what?" The old women stared at Gao Cheng closely.

Gao Cheng smiled: "It's nothing, even if the Kaitou Kidd didn't take it, we can't take the diamonds here, we'd better call the police."

"Hey," Sudeng Yunzo said anxiously, "What do you mean, it took so much effort..."

"It's not just about the treasure," Gao Cheng interrupted, "We also found a dead body when we came here, so I would like to trouble everyone to go to the police station..."

"stop!"

The short-haired girl suddenly took out a pistol and pointed at Gao Cheng with a sneer: "A detective is a detective, he just likes to meddle in other people's business...Okay, obediently go and get the diamonds, or I'll kill these brats."

The short-haired girl turned her gun on Ayumi and the others sarcastically: "I have to say, it seems that you, a detective, are really naive..."

"The murderer is indeed you."

Gao Cheng's face was calm: "You are the poisonous rat mentioned in the notes that killed Tamai Teruho, right?"

"You already knew?"

"When we only said that we found the stone artifact, you knew that ours was not a stone sword but a Gouyu. You must have read that notebook beforehand, right?"

Gao Cheng looked at Conan.

"One page of the notes was torn at the end, but because of the pencil recording, there were very shallow traces printed on the other page, and the torn page was the one with the Yan character Gouyu on it."

The short-haired woman frowned slightly: "Just because of this?"

"It's just that I can't be sure that you are the murderer," Gao Cheng continued, "So I have been following you all the time, and I have taken the initiative to help you find the treasure. At least I can be sure that Mr. Sudou is not a poisonous rat..."

"Hmph!" the short-haired girl laughed, "Detective Chenghu, do you want to procrastinate? Or honestly find the diamond..."

"I think you made a mistake," Gao Cheng held the wooden knife against the drizzle and breeze, "I can't swim, so I can't get diamonds at all, and..."

"Huh?" The short-haired goddess' expression changed.

The gun suddenly turned towards Gao Cheng again, but suddenly an anesthesia needle was added to his forehead. In a daze, he saw Conan approaching at some point, and the watch cover on his wrist was still open to aim at himself.

"And I'm not stalling."

Gao Cheng drew an arc of light from the wooden knife in his hand and shot down the pistol held by the short-haired woman. He glanced at the short-haired woman who was unwilling to fall, and turned to the other side to look at Sudeng Yunzo, who was about to move in the pond and was shocked by the sudden change.

"Detective Kido, Kido," Sudou swallowed, "Leave it alone? At least take out the diamond first, right?"

Gao Cheng said with a smile: "Do you know why Kidd didn't take it away? Yoshitakamon probably didn't intend to let anyone take away the treasure here. The slightly raised walls of the mechanism room, the leaky underground passage, and the earthquake once happened There are rumors about it... I am afraid that someone found the diamond more than once, but they failed to take it away in the end."

"Could it be an agency?!"

"If it's just the organs inside, don't you think there is something missing in this house?"

Gao Cheng turned around and looked at Kidd: "If my guess is correct, once the diamond is taken out, the biggest mechanism will be activated, and then everything here will be swallowed by the flood, and the flood will wash everyone to the bottom of the valley, and everyone will escape. Don't go, will you, old lady?"

"Huh?" The old woman staggered and took a step back.

"You have already taken the diamond once, but activated the mechanism, so you stayed here to stop others. You also left a piece of paper saying 'There is no silver three hundred taels here', to let everyone leave."

Sudeng Yunzoo and Yuanta followed and looked at the old woman: "Could it be... Kaitou Kidd?"

"Hmph," the old woman was silent for a while, smiled lightly and stood up straight, rather helplessly returning to her original figure, "I can meet you everywhere, you can't get rid of them like shadows..."

"What shadow?" Conan looked angrily at Kidd who tore off his disguise and revealed his white clothes. "It's obvious that you are always haunted. Anyway, I thank you for saving Yuanta at the hot spring just now."

"Thanks for the compliment," Kidd smiled while supporting the brim of his hat, "However, the reason why I didn't take the diamond was because it wasn't the gemstone I wanted, and I just helped you along the way... So, see you next time, everyone !"

"Boom!"

As a burst of smoke exploded, Kidd disappeared in front of everyone again.

"I really like to put on a show..." Conan curled his lips, but he didn't chase after him.

"What?" Yuan Tai snorted, "When did he save me? He obviously pushed me down and wanted to grab that sword first..."

"That's because he has to go in to trigger the organ first, or you will die," Gao Cheng grabbed Yuan Tai's ear, "What did I say before?!"

"It hurts, Brother Kido! Lightly lightly..."

"We'll go back to Tokyo immediately after the things here are over!"

"Ah?" Mitsuhiko and the others wailed at the same time, "No way?"

"Brother Kido..."

"You guys should have had enough, right?"

"Huh!" The night wind blew, and the air in the deep mountain after the rain was a little bit fresher, with a faint earthy smell, and the gloomy old house didn't look so scary.

Sudeng Yunzo sighed softly, lifted his backpack and looked at Gao Cheng who was taking care of a group of children, with a wry smile on his face.

This feeling of being mastered is really terrible, and it really shouldn't be the attention of famous detectives. Treasure hunters are no match for these perverted guys.

Looking back at the dilapidated house under the night, this place should be closed in the future, and it will be silent together with the treasure hunters who died in the basement.

"Mr. Sudou," Gao Cheng called to stop Sudou, "Let's tie this woman up with a rope first, and if possible, find the hidden body of Tamai Teruho."

"Okay...Okay," Sudou Yunzo recovered, and quickly took out the rope from his backpack to help, "But, Detective Kido, why do you think I'm not a poisonous rat?"

"If it were, you'd be in a different way in the basement."

After Gao Cheng tied up the short-haired girl, he clapped his hands and put away the pistol as evidence, and turned to Conan by the pond.

"Let's go, Conan."

"It turns out that the last two sentences of the code mean this," Conan murmured, "Diamond is also a stone that cannot be conquered, so I said the eternal truth, that is, diamonds will never be stolen... For those who support the shogunate... Speaking of Emon, it’s not surprising that he has such an idea in order to prevent the property from being confiscated by the shogunate faction at the end of the Shogunate period.”

"If that's the case, why did you leave the map and the code?" Ayumi couldn't figure it out.

"Maybe this place itself is a trap, a trap to vent unwillingness."

Gao Cheng shook his head.

If he wasn't afraid of accidents, he really wanted to see the large-scale mechanism called "Rage of the King of Ren". This kind of magical mechanism combined with nature is a treasure in itself.
