Vol 3 Chapter 15 underground secret passage
Entering the castle, everyone visited the various rooms in the castle under the leadership of Butler Kasaka Natsumi, but could not find any clues related to another egg of memory.
On the contrary, Gan Jiang Yi used to use the toilet to sneak away in the middle of the way, but ended up taking a series of props that looked like special thieves, came to a room they had visited before, and found and opened the hidden safe. , trying to steal valuable jewels from it.
It’s just that Kasaka Natsumi’s great-grandfather seemed to be a very skilled mechanism designer. He designed the mechanism in the safe and directly locked Gan Jiangyi’s sinful right hand. At the same time, several swords fell from the roof. If it weren’t for the fact that the go-getter was short in stature and dodged in time, he would have been fired.
“Master Kiichi’s mechanism design can be regarded as a contemporary masterpiece, and is known as the greatest mechanism designer after Sansui Yoshiemon, so please pay attention to your behavior.”
Kasaka Natsumi’s housekeeper took out a key from another secret compartment, and opened the lock for the go-getter. Behavior like his is basically equivalent to being caught stealing, and can be sent directly to the police station. But everyone is still focusing on finding clues for the second egg of memory, and decided to call the police for the time being, and keep the cadre by his side to monitor, and his messy tools are naturally confiscated, leaving only the The next harmless flashlight.
“Since Mr. Xiyi is very good at traps, will there be traps or hidden basements in this castle?” Conan asked Mr. Butler.
“Well… I only learned about some anti-theft mechanisms in this castle from the deceased old lady. But there should be no such design.” The butler thought after hearing the words, “However, the study and office of Mr. Xiyi is on the first floor. There might be some clues that even I don’t know about.”
So, everyone came to Mr. Xiyi’s office. Although it has long been unused, it has been cleaned and maintained by the cleaning staff, and the things inside do not feel run down and outdated.
“Oh, so many pictures.”
In Mr. Kiichi’s office, in addition to the books on the shelf, there are many black and white photos. The above are some group photos of Mr. Xiyi with various people, ranging from princes and nobles to social celebrities. It seems that Mr. Xiyi was still a good communicator.
“There is still a group photo with Rasputin…” The go-getter who was caught on the scene was not ashamed at this time, looking at a photo on the wall and sighing.
“Rasputin? Who is that?” Xiaolan asked.
“Rasputin was a weird person in the time of Tsarist Russia, some people called it Rasputin the weird monk. In addition to the messy life style, it can be said that it indirectly led to the downfall of Tsarist Russia to some extent. Even death is very interesting. It is said that he has experienced many kinds of injuries that are enough to cause death, and his remains are taken for research after death…” Guan Dounan explained to Xiaolan, “Many people think that this guy may be He is not a human at all, or he has some strange disease that has caused his mental disorder, so he is a relatively well-known person in the sense of evil.”
“Ah, there is one more thing, he is called a Russian-like poison, but this knowledge point is not something that an underage girl like Xiao Lan should know.” Guan Dounan deliberately said the poison in standard Chinese. name.
Daluo
After saying these words, Guan Dounan obviously felt that a sharp gaze had been fixed on him, so he smiled slightly and changed the subject very naturally.
“Speaking of which, since Mr. Xiyi had such a deep relationship with Tsarist Russia, would he also use Russian elements in the design of the agency? For example, Russian ciphers and the like.”
“This, it’s possible. When I was a child, I often heard my grandmother repeat a strange word, which seemed to be…” Kasaka Natsumi recalled, “‘Balushini Kukadameka’ or something, is this in Russian? ?”
“Barusher…” Sergey, the only authentic Russian diplomat present, thought, “could this be Russian? It feels a bit like, but…”
“Could it be because of punctuation or different accents?” Pu Siqinglan asked.
“Balusher…Balushepnik Kanzhimei?” Sergey suddenly realized, “Yes, it should be this.”
“Well, this Russian sentence is…”
“In translation, it is ‘the magician at the end of the century’. Mr. Xiyi’s activities were mainly around 1900, which is also regarded as the end of the century, and his exquisite craftsmanship does not seem to be a problem for him to be a magician.” Xie Sergey explained.
“I see…”
“Everyone, the floor here seems to be leaking air!” When everyone was surprised to find a clue, Conan’s pretentious voice sounded, and he was lying on the ground, pointing to a floor and said excitedly.
“Because I’m short, I can feel it!”
“Is there really a mechanism?”
Everyone was excited ~www.readmtl.com~ After some operations, they found a password input disk with Russian letters under the raised floor, which should be the key to opening the mechanism.
After the Russian text of “Magician at the end of the century” was entered, the whole room emitted a low roar brought about by the operation of the machine, and a large enough room for Dr. A hole for people of all sizes to enter and exit.
“It’s really yours…” Guan Dounan rubbed Conan’s head without a trace, and the latter rolled his eyes in return.
Who just tapped on the ground with their toes a few times to hint? Let you cut the identity of the fortune teller and the identity of the actor, and then you can only rely on others.
Without further ado, after confirming that there is no poisonous gas in the underground passage and that the oxygen content is sufficient, everyone entered the passage. Rely on a flashlight, a lighter, or a black-tech watch produced by a certain A Li to move forward.
After going down from the entrance, the width of the underground passage suddenly widened a lot, enough for two or three people to walk side by side. The crowd did not strictly form any formation, but just walked together slightly loosely.
Guan Dounan and Amuro Toru used the excuse of “framing”, slightly behind the crowd and hiding in the shadows.
“It’s better to strike first?” Amuro asked in a low voice while walking on the stairs that rotated downwards.
“No, wait for her to be single, or…” Guan Dounan, who took off his sunglasses, shook his head, and was suddenly stunned, feeling as if he had been dazed just now.
“She’s going first.” Anshitou was also stunned for a moment, but he immediately realized what happened and shouted out, but in the next second, he disappeared from Guan Dounan’s sight.
What appeared in front of him at this time was a black muzzle.
