Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing
Chapter 169 The Fire Burns
A few days passed peacefully. Nagai Mitsuru guessed that these days might be the plot of the Junior Detective League, so it would not affect himself and Mouri Kogoro.
So he felt at ease playing guitar and slacking off every day and having dinner with Professor Agasa and Haibara Ai.
On Saturday, I fulfilled my promise and took the kids to the ranch for a walk. Nothing unexpected happened.
When he got home in the evening, he was already very tired from playing, and Nagai Hikari lay on the sofa in the living room and didn't want to move. The little white horse Dorothy was very excited because she hadn't seen him for a while. The whole audience followed him. If Nagai Hikari approached other horses and showed that he wanted to ride them, it would kick its hooves wildly, and it was very angry.
So among the group of people today, only Nagai Mitsuru didn't get to ride a horse. He was dragged by Dorothy to run several laps, which was a strenuous exercise.
Nagai Hikaru lay there for a while, and Hamura Shuichi came over and squatted beside the sofa, handing her a tablet: "Miss, yesterday and tonight, there were suspicious people who were not residents of Beika Town around the door of this house."
"Ah?" Nagai Mitsuru propped himself up and looked at the video. There were two or three men, all of whom he had never seen before.
"Do you need to be alert?"
Conan, who was sitting on the sofa next to him, sat up alertly: "What suspicious person?"
"It's okay. The security system of this house is pretty good. There are cameras everywhere on the gate and the walls. If something enters the warning range, it will take a photo and send it to my and Shuichi's phones. If we don't click to confirm, it will automatically call the police." Nagai Hikaru comforted, "Nothing will happen."
Conan felt relieved after hearing this and lay back on the sofa. He was very tired from playing today and even played a game of football with Genta and the others at the horse field.
It was indeed too early to feel relieved.
Around three in the morning, Conan and Hikaru Nagai, both wearing only pajamas, were forced into a corner by a masked man in black holding a crossbow. Both of their cell phones were smashed and thrown on the ground.
"Tell me the password to the safe, little girl!" The man who seemed to be the leader pointed a crossbow at Nagai Hikaru's shoulder, "Tell me the password to the safe, or this arrow will leave a scar on you."
"No...there is no safe." Nagai Hikaru nervously hugged Conan in his arms.
"What? Lying will not end well!" The crossbow was slightly raised and aimed at Nagai Hikaru's face.
"Really not." Nagai Mitsuru looked very innocent.
"Boss!" A subordinate who was rummaging through boxes nearby shouted in surprise, "There's money here!"
In an ordinary cabinet in the corner of the room, a masked man in black opened it and found stacks of cash inside. Based on their concept of money, there must be at least 100 million yen there.
"Boss! You're worthy of being the kind of person who would pay someone a million for a casual slap. You even have so much cash at home!" The masked man was very excited.
Conan clenched his fists and looked around. In addition to the leader, there were three masked men in black. He looked at the clothes he took off before going to bed. Then he remembered that he had left his football belt on the shelf in the bathroom and he was only wearing pajamas.
"Damn it!" Conan complained in a low voice. He didn't wear his power shoes during sleep. Now he was really powerless to resist the kid.
He was still wondering why the security system didn't respond when he saw the leader patting a thin masked man and laughing, "Thanks to you, new guy, you can actually paralyze the security systems of these rich people. We don't have to come in and start burning the house, and we can have more time to find out where the money is."
The man who had found the money before started to cheer: "Boss! Boss! Look at this jewelry box!"
He had probably found the drawer of the dressing table, and all the jewels inside were poured into his pocket, making them look sparkling.
Someone touched Nagai Hikaru's handbag today and was surprised to find that there were hundreds of thousands of cash stuffed in the wallet alone.
The leader holding the crossbow laughed wildly and patted the thin masked man on the shoulder. "Not bad! Compared to robbing those celebrities whose money is in bank funds, it's better to rob the rich people you investigated. They have few family members, and they are all women and children. It's not only convenient to rob them, but also safe. Hahahaha."
Nagai Hikaru clenched his fists and tried to stand up, but Conan stopped him and whispered, "Hikaru, wait, he has a weapon, don't worry, I've called the police."
He was secretly holding a detective medal in his hand, which he had placed under his pillow. He had just secretly contacted Haibara Ai to report the incident to the police.
Thanks to Haibara Ai's habit of staying up late during holidays, she didn't miss any contact information.
The leader looked at the valuable things his men had taken out from various rooms, and laughed so hard that his mask could hardly cover his big mouth.
He saw that two of his men had already stuffed their pockets full, with the banknotes and jewels leaking out of the pockets, and were about to overflow.
"After doing this, we brothers can have fun for a long time." The leader nodded with satisfaction and patted the thin man next to him, "Thank you for your hard work. You have done a great contribution. Come on." He grabbed the thin man's hand and asked him to pull the trigger of the crossbow.
The thin man nervously let go and took a step back: "When I first joined, I said I would only rob and not kill."
"We've robbed so much this time. If they call the police and reveal any of our identities, we'll be finished."
"This is different from what was promised!"
A masked man walked in and kicked Shuichi Hamura, whose hands were tied behind his back, into the house, and he fell next to Hikaru Nagai and Conan.
The people behind came in with oil drums and poured them all over the house.
Conan was surprised and said, "Are you that Su Luo?" The robber group Su Luo that had burned, killed and looted three families. They were in the news recently, but several of the crimes were committed in the port area. Conan didn't expect that they would suddenly change to Mihua.
Shuichi Hamura fell to the ground, his glasses fell to the side, and he finally bent over and sat up, his tone still very calm: "I'm so sorry, Miss, the security system has been hacked somehow, and there is no response."
Nagai Mitsuru was holding Conan and trying to move closer to Hamura Shuichi, when an arrow grazed his thigh and hit the ground, causing Conan to break out in a cold sweat.
"Don't move, Miss, or you will die now." The leader's eyes were full of arrogance.
The thin man next to him saw that the leader's attention was diverted, so he turned around and started running out.
The other men who were still pouring oil on the ground paused when they saw this.
The leader cursed and ordered the man who forced Hamura Shuichi to come in to aim at Nagai Mitsuru with another crossbow, while he himself raised the crossbow and chased after him.
The newcomer pointed a crossbow at Conan and Hikaru Nagai.
Nagai Hikaru carefully put Conan down on the ground, pushed him to stand behind him, and said to the man who was still holding the crossbow: "You have already taken the money, and you have achieved your goal, right? There is no need to kill anyone anymore, right?"
The man snorted twice: "One or two more won't make a difference."
Nagai Hikaru's body completely covered Conan: "Let the child go. He can't take revenge at such a young age. There's no need, right?"
"Yeah, but killing one less person won't do us any good. Unless..." The guy holding the crossbow laughed evilly.
"I still have money in my bank card."
"No need. Taking money is a dangerous job. Cash and jewelry are enough for us."
"Then what do you want?"
"Girl, I want..."
The masked man next to him reminded: "Stop playing, the boss wants to light the fire."
The man holding the crossbow spread his hands: "Forget it, I don't have time to play with you."
An arrow shot out, and Nagai Hikaru grabbed Conan's clothes and rolled to the side, avoiding the arrow. But the lighter dropped by the other masked man had already ignited the gasoline spilled in the house, and a fire suddenly broke out.
Several masked men left the room in an orderly manner, carrying the stolen bag.
Nagai Mitsuru hurriedly pulled out the arrow that had shot into the floor in front of him, stood up and ran to Shuichi Hamura, and began to cut his tied hands.
Only then did Conan notice that there was a broken arrow on Hide Hamura's thigh, and the blood had soaked the carpet underneath.
The fire in the room was almost reaching the door. Hamura Shuichi's wrists were untied and he pushed Nagai Hikaru: "Miss, you and Conan should run, the fire is burning too fast."
"What a joke! I can't live well without you." He picked up Conan next to him and threw him out of the door, "Go call the police first."
The force used was quite strong, and Conan was thrown out of the bedroom door, which was nearly ten meters away. The fire had already touched the curtains and burned up to the roof. Conan wanted to rush in, but found that the door had also been doused with gasoline, and the fire had quickly spread to this side.
"Conan?!" a voice came from below. Amuro Toru ran over from the other end of the corridor, looked at the situation at the bedroom door, and threw Conan to the corridor stairs first, "You go out first, I'll go in to save people."
Then he took a deep breath, kicked open the burning bedroom door, and rushed into the fire.
Conan gritted his teeth and ran downstairs.
He thought he could still get out from the second-floor window, so he had to find something to cushion the bottom.
The fire was very big. When Amuro Toru went in, he saw Nagai Mitsuru supporting Hamura Shu and dragging him towards the window.
He rushed over and supported Shuichi Hamura, looked at the injury on his leg, picked him up on his back, grabbed Mitsuru Nagai, and rushed to the window together.
The curtains were almost burnt, and the room was filled with thick smoke. In just a few minutes, Nagai Mitsuru felt suffocated.
Toru Amuro kicked open the closed window, and thick smoke and fire burst out of the window. The three of them jumped out.
The white inflatable cushion below was just filled up when they jumped down, and the three of them landed safely on the cushion. Then they all started coughing, breathing heavily, and their faces and bodies were covered with traces of ash from the smoke.
Although it was only the second floor, the house was designed with a high ceiling, and the first floor was already four or five meters high. If there was no cushion, they would most likely get injured if they jumped from the second floor, not to mention Shuichi Hamura who was already injured.
Conan stood under the mat panting. He just remembered the inflatable safety mat that Professor Agasa had installed under the seat of Nagai Hikaru's motorcycle. He ran down quickly to activate the mat, and rushed over while inflating it.
At this time, the sounds of police cars and fire trucks gradually came. Toru Amuro supported Shuichi Hamura, who had an injured leg, and Hikaru Nagai, who was pulling Conan barefoot, and walked to the door of Nagai's house in embarrassment.
By the time the firefighters rushed into the garden and found the fire hydrant, the entire house was already on fire, and all they could do was prevent the fire from spreading to the neighbors next door.
