Chapter 173: Blue Castle 2
Gao Cheng had a headache, and the group unconsciously arrived at the room on the second floor in front of the chessboard in the courtyard.
I didn't feel anything when I looked at the chess pieces in the courtyard, but when I looked at it from above, I found that the seemingly scattered chess pieces seemed to have some mystery, but Gao Cheng himself couldn't see the reason at all.
Looking at Conan, who was holding a small notebook and carefully recording the chessboard, Gao Cheng turned to the gray plain standing next to him.
The red hooded jacket, the short pleated skirt, and the black stockings are just wearing a cute and mature little adult feeling, and it is a new dress that I bought with my salary a few days ago, and it seems that I bought a wallet and put it in the office, and I spent my entire salary at once, without blinking.
It's really a complicated woman, but her IQ is really high, and her puzzle-solving ability is not necessarily worse than Conan......
"What?" Gray Yuan's eyelids collapsed, and he raised his head speechlessly to meet Gao Cheng's gaze, "I don't know anything, besides, isn't there the most suitable person here?" ”
Gray Yuan looked at Conan, who was contemplative by the window, "If anyone can solve the code, it's probably this guy." ”
Gao Cheng's face was slightly bitter, of course he knew that Conan was powerful, but was it too faceless to hand it over to Conan? Now he, Conan and Hattori are not only friends, but also competitors, and if that guy at Hattori knows, he will definitely die of laughter. .....................
"Xiao Ai, you still need the latest leather bag from Pudala, right? This time, the commission fee is 1.5 million. ”
“……”
"Detective Joto, can you talk about it?" A young man in a suit appeared at the door, unusually similar to the old man in the portrait of the hall, his eyes narrowed into a slit.
This person is called the nobleman of the palace, and he is the only son of the couple of Sadaaki.
Gao Cheng followed the young man to the corner of the aisle, not knowing what the eldest young master was looking for him.
"Actually," the nobles of the palace specially avoided everyone and became enlightened towards Gao, "about the fire ...... four years ago"
"Your nobleman," Miya Mitsuru suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs, "Have you seen your mother-in-law and others?" ”
"Grandma, she seems to have gone back to her room, saying that she would call her when her mother arrived."
"She's still like this, she thinks your mother is alive......"
Mamiya Man sighed lightly and left, and the nobles of Mamiya who stayed behind opened their mouths, but did not continue to say anything to Gao Cheng.
"Detective Chenghu, it's not too early, I think your friends will stay today."
"Thank you."
Gao Cheng frowned as he watched the young man who wanted to stop talking walk away.
The relationship between the family is strange, on the surface harmonious, but they are defensive of each other.
The treasure left by the old man 15 years ago should be one of the reasons, and the other is the bizarre fire four years ago, which seems to have something hidden......
"Young Master Nobleman?" When the gardener was found by Gao Cheng, he recalled, "The young master was sent to study abroad since he was a child, and he came back two or three days before the fire, and he stayed with Master Aman after the incident......"
"Hey!" Suddenly, the shouts of the nobles of the palace came from upstairs, "How can you mess around? ”
"What's wrong?" Gao Cheng and Dr. Asa return to the second floor and find that the nobleman of the palace is reprimanding the children.
"It's nothing," Mamiya said, looking back, "it's just a prank." ”
"Not really!" Ayumi said anxiously, "It's because Conan suddenly disappeared, and we're looking for him!" ”
"Conan is gone?"
"Probably to the bathroom," the gardener said, "the bathroom is downstairs." ”
Gao Cheng looked at the room suspiciously, and found that Gray Yuan was standing silently behind, with a hint of solemnity between his eyebrows, as if he knew something.
"Let's go down and have a look," the nobleman of the palace led everyone downstairs, "This castle is still quite large, and it is easy to get lost." ”
Gao Cheng and Gray Yuan fell behind.
"Haven't you been with Conan all the time? What the hell is going on? Gao Cheng asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, it seems to have fallen into some kind of mechanism," a thoughtful look flashed in Gray Yuan's eyes, "Don't you think it's weird here?" Be careful......"
"I'm fine, it's you guys."
Gao Cheng looked helplessly at the few bear children in front of him, he had enough ability to deal with danger, but with Dr. Asa and these little ghosts, he couldn't.
"And Conan, who always likes to mess around alone, and never has a long memory...... I'll go find him later, and the doctor and Ayumi will trouble you. ”
"He must have turned the clock hand in that room just now, probably some kind of secret passage, hiding in this castle to get the secret ......passage," Gray Yuan reminded.
"Strange, not here," the gardener searched in the bathroom, but found no Conan, "where would it go?" ”
"Are there any other toilets?" Dr. Asasa worried.
"It's rarely used here, so it's the only ......."
"Young Master," a waiter walked in, "dinner is ready." ”
"It's already time for dinner," the nobleman of Mamiya was stunned and turned to Ayumi and the others, "I have also prepared your portion, do you want to eat together?" ”
"Really?" As soon as Yuan Tai heard about eating, his whole person became energetic.
"But we're still looking for Conan......"
"No problem," Mamiya chuckled, "when he is too hungry to stand it, he will naturally come out...... Let's come with the Joto detectives. ”
"Oh, good."
Gao Cheng couldn't pull out, so he had to follow to the restaurant first.
Although I don't know what the Mamiya family relies on for a living, it doesn't look like it's short of money, and a simple dinner is extraordinarily luxurious, with a long dining table full of delicacies, and Ayumi is instantly attracted by the fragrance.
"It seems to be delicious!"
"Let's go!"
Gao Cheng looked at the excited people and shed a trace of cold sweat, and his eyes swept over the opposite palace man and the nobles of the palace.
"I heard you've been here since the fire, is it because of the treasure?"
"I can't say that," Manomiya said with an embarrassed smile, "Actually, I originally planned to go back to this castle after graduating from university. ”
"Haha," Mamiya laughed to himself, "It would be hypocritical to say that I didn't care about my father-in-law's last words at all, but I was worried about my mother-in-law's loss at first, so I stayed, and then I gradually fell in love with the castle where my mother-in-law grew up." ”
"Oh," Gao Cheng nodded, seeing that the old woman had not appeared, and said strangely, "Doesn't the old lady eat dinner?" ”
"She'll be in the room later."
Ma Miya Man didn't seem to pay much attention to his mother-in-law, but just looked at Gao Chengdao with concern: "By the way, Detective Chenghu, how is the puzzle solved?" ”
Gao Cheng frowned slightly: "There are still some questions, don't worry, I will help you solve them." ”
"It's all in your troubles." The palace was full of joy in his eyes.
