After walking for a long time, a group of people, each with their own thoughts, finally stopped.

In front of them was an old and dirty stone wall blocking the way.

"There is no way."

"Huh? Did you take the wrong road?"

Shiratori Renzaburo, who was leading the way, turned around and denied it: "That's impossible. There should be only this one road in this place."

Conan Edogawa stared at the stone wall: "That means there is a mechanism here too."

Everyone shone flashlights everywhere, trying to see where the mechanism might be.

Kosaka Natsumi looked at the pattern on the stone wall and said in amazement: "Hey, there are so many birds here."

Suzuki Sonoko also saw the pattern in the middle of the stone wall: "Huh? That's strange, the bird in the middle has two heads."

Huiyuan Ai raised her head and said calmly: "The two-headed eagle, the symbol of the emperor."

Hiroki Sawada touched his chin and said, "There are crowns on both heads. Does the halo behind the crown represent the sun?"

sun?

Edogawa Conan vaguely grasped some clues.

sun.

light.

Ah! Could it be...

Edogawa Conan ran a few steps and was about to ask Shiratori Rensaburo who was standing in the front to verify his guess, when he heard a rumbling sound and the ground beneath his feet began to sink.

Edogawa Conan was shocked. What happened? !

He turned his head and saw a strong beam of light shining directly on the crown of the two-headed eagle from behind the crowd, making the gems on it shine brightly, much stronger than the scattered light from the flashlight in Shiratori Renzaburo's hand.

At the same time, a voice said, "Wow! This flashlight has a great ability to focus light. I can give a bonus to the technician when I get back."

Okay, no need to guess, it must have been Si Xuanyu who did it.

She solved the puzzle first again!

hateful!

However, Edogawa Conan did not retreat. Since it was Si Xuanyu who did it, it was most likely the correct mechanism.

Shiratori Rensaburo shouted at others to stay away from the sinking area, so Edogawa Conan was honored as the pioneer.

When Mao Lilan saw that Conan Edogawa was alone in the machine, she hurried forward to pull him back, but was stopped by Suzuki Sonoko.

Conan Edogawa was standing in the middle of the mechanism, and Ran Mouri couldn't pull him over, so she could only jump down and be with Conan Edogawa.

We still don’t know what’s underneath the mechanism, so it’s better not to get involved with Xiaolan anymore.

Anyway, if there is real danger, Xuan Yu will definitely take action.

At this time, Shiratori Jinzaburo also discovered the key to opening the mechanism. He suddenly realized: "So that's it, this crown is a combination of a brightness meter... Eh? Ah!!!"

Before he finished his words, Shiratori Renzaburo felt the ground beneath his feet begin to move, and it was moving in a way that it split to the sides, which frightened him so much that he stepped back in a hurry.

With quick eyes and hands, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko dragged Shiratori Jinzaburo back to a safe area.

After they had managed to stand firm, they saw another staircase leading downwards in front of them. However, this staircase was very short and the end could be seen at a glance. Edogawa Conan, who had just sunk with the ground, was standing on the flat ground under the staircase, and in front of him was an arched entrance.

Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed to Kosaka Natsumi: "Natsumi, your great-grandfather was amazing! These mechanisms are so powerful!"

Natsumi Kosaka herself also thought that these mechanisms were amazing, so she smiled and accepted Suzuki Sonoko's compliment.

Si Xuanyu said with a smile: "Oh my, that's right, such a powerful mechanism, even Officer Shiratori had to retreat to the safe area first, but Conan just stood there and went down with the ground~

Tsk tsk tsk, Xiaolan, I think Conan really needs some safety education.

Otherwise, if you keep being so reckless and foolish, you might end up in a dangerous situation someday."

Shiratori Renzaburo: ...You're implying that I'm not as brave as a child, right? Right? Right?

Edogawa Conan was looking at the dark unknown space inside the door with a serious face. After hearing what Si Xuanyu said, he immediately turned around and ran up the stairs, standing in front of Mao Li Ran with an innocent smile on his face: "Sister Xiaolan, I was just scared just now, and I didn't have time to step back.

Because Sister Xuanyu didn't say a word and suddenly the mechanism was activated!

I will definitely pay more attention to Sister Xuanyu's movements next time!"

Si Xuanyu opened his eyes wide: "Hey, don't think I can't hear you, you scheming and childish ghost, and you blame me?

Just now, Officer Shiratori was farther away from the safe area than you, but he managed to retreat back successfully, didn’t he?

I think you just want to be cool! You are so young and don't have any safety awareness!

"Xiao Lan! I'm telling you, kids of this age love to take risks and do stupid things. You have to discipline him!"

Edogawa Conan glared at Si Xuanyu, the guy who was trying to sow discord!

Mao Lilan saw that Edogawa Conan was about to jump up and down, and hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Okay, Conan, Xuan Yu is also concerned about you. Your behavior just now was indeed dangerous. Be careful next time!"

Edogawa Conan was not convinced. Why did he only talk about him? It was obviously Si Xuanyu who provoked him first!

Sure enough, neither Xiaolan nor he is the best in the world!

This guy Si Xuanyu!

No! I must quickly transform back into Kudo Shinichi so that I can win back Xiaolan's heart!

But how can I change back? !

Ahhhh!!! Damn the man in black!!!

Shiratori Renzaburo tried to hold back his laughter like crazy, then cleared his throat: "Well, let's go down first and measure the oxygen content in front of the door."

Edogawa Conan puffed out his cheeks, glanced at the smug Si Xuanyu, snorted, and walked down the stairs.

Everyone waited for a while, and used an instrument to measure the oxygen content to confirm that it was normal, before walking into the arch together.

Unlike the rough cave on the road before, inside the arch is a stone chamber that looks like it has been carefully polished and built.

The inside of the stone chamber looked somewhat similar to the emperor's chamber in the castle, but the dome was in the shape of a semicircle, looking like half an eggshell.

Edogawa Conan looked around and when he turned his head he saw a stone pillar almost as tall as him. There was a bowl-shaped groove on the stone pillar with a small round hole in the center of the groove.

Shiratori Renzaburo and Silov Chinikov took lighters and found the candles in the room, lighting them one by one.

There is also a small platform in the stone chamber, on which is placed a Western-style wooden coffin.

There are three stone statues on the wall behind the coffin, which appear to be angels or other clergy.

A lock as big as an adult's palm was hung on the wooden coffin.

Suzuki Sonoko touched it curiously and said, "This lock is really big!"

Mao Lilan looked at the lock and said, "Huh? This keyhole..."

Edogawa Conan reacted quickly: "Ms. Natsumi! That key!"

Natsumi Kosaka was stunned for a moment, then she remembered what she said on the boat, about the key that was found together with the blueprints. She hurriedly opened her handbag and walked forward to insert the key into the keyhole.
