The identity of the traitor was actually very obvious, and Xia Xi could guess it without any reasoning: a group of guards were tied together, and the elevator lady was tied alone. Doesn't this clearly show that this person is different from the others?

Although their faces could not be seen clearly, these guards obviously had ordinary looks, and this elevator lady was obviously different from them. You know, generally speaking, the author would not spend too much time on unimportant characters, which also shows that this elevator lady is not simple.

"Um...are you here to rescue...um..." The elevator lady seemed to have noticed something and asked.

Xia Xi didn't wait for the elevator lady to finish her question and knocked her out. She had no interest in listening to the criminal's nonsense, as he was just trying to deceive her anyway.

Of course, the ropes on the hands and feet of the other guards were not loosened.

Although I am basically sure who the accomplice is, just in case, I'd better wait for the police to arrive before untying them.

Xia Xi also called the police using the security room's phone and told them about the situation at the department store.

After calling the police, Xia Xi turned her attention to the surveillance footage that the robbers had just watched, preparing to find out where the remaining robbers and Conan were.

"Hey, what happened over there? What was that noise just now?"

A voice suddenly came from the intercom on the table. Xia Xi did not answer. She looked at the surveillance camera. Sure enough, a robber was anxiously talking on the intercom. It was the robber in the Kamen Rider costume. He seemed to realize something, said a few words to his companions, and then split into two groups and walked away from the surveillance camera.

Xia Xi looked at other surveillance cameras again and found that there was no sign of Conan and Genta and the others. She knew that they were probably intentionally avoiding surveillance to prevent their location from being discovered by their accomplices in the guard room.

Xia Xi thought about the location of the robber in the surveillance video just now. It should be in the clothing department on the 3rd floor. The troops just split into two groups. Someone should be going back to the surveillance room to check the situation. The robber can only go down by stairs or elevator. There are surveillance cameras in the elevator. Now the situation is unclear, they should choose to avoid surveillance as much as possible. Moreover, the elevator is too easy to be ambushed. As long as it moves, you will know that there is someone inside. Therefore, they should take the stairs now.

Xia Xi came to the stairs, hid aside with her back against the wall, closed her eyes and listened carefully.

Not long after, there were light and slow footsteps coming from the stairs. They must have deliberately lowered their footsteps to prevent others from noticing. Xia Xi listened carefully and found that the footsteps did not overlap, so there should be only one person.

She did not act in a hurry. She waited until the robber reached the stairs and was about to see her, then she rushed forward and kicked him away. The robber in the Kamen Rider uniform was kicked away and hit the wall, knocking him unconscious. Of course, he might not have been knocked unconscious. After all, in order to knock the robber unconscious, Xia Xi used a little more force in this kick. The robber might have broken some ribs and might have fainted from the pain, but it didn't matter.

Three have been dealt with so far. According to the surveillance footage just now, there should be two robbers left who are now fighting wits and courage with Conan and the others.

At this time, on the other side, Conan and his friends were using the clothing models in the clothing area to deceive the robbers, but the sound of Genta's hunger broke their disguise, and they had to escape immediately.

Conan ran and looked back at the number of robbers - strange, there were three people just now, why are there only two chasing us now? Is the other one planning to surround us from another place?

No, from the beginning, these robbers had no idea of ​​their whereabouts. Although I tried to avoid surveillance, the situation was urgent and Yuantai and his friends were all children, so sometimes they would be caught by surveillance accidentally. But from the beginning, even if they accidentally appeared in the surveillance range, the robbers did not immediately prepare to catch me - there must be something wrong with the guard room, and the other robber who disappeared must have returned to the guard room to check the situation.

Could it be that someone saw the distress signal they left on the window and came in? Conan planned to deal with the two robbers first, and then go to the guard room to see what happened.

Conan and his companions ran to the liquor area and were about to shake the bottles to open them and spray the robbers with liquor when they suddenly heard the sound of a body falling behind them.

"Sister Xia Xi!" Yuantai, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi shouted in unison.

Turning around, it was indeed Xia Xi. She smiled and comforted Yuan Tai and the others, then threw the baseball she had just been throwing directly at another robber who was still awake. There was a "bang" sound, and the robber fell to the ground after his head and the baseball made close contact.

Paimon couldn't help but praise in Xia Xi's mind: "Traveler, good shot!"

Conan turned his head and looked at the robber who fell first on the other side, and sure enough, there was a baseball next to him.

Conan was stunned. How much strength does it take to knock a human unconscious by throwing a baseball with his hands?

But Ayumi and the others didn't care about this at all. When they saw that all the robbers were dealt with, they immediately rushed to Xia Xi happily, and asked her why her sister Xia Xi suddenly appeared. After knowing that her sister Xia Xi knew something happened here based on the signal they left on the window and came in to check, they excitedly talked about how they discovered the robbers and their subsequent feat of dealing with the robbers.

After the matter was settled, Xia Xi took the children back to the guard room to wait for the police to arrive.

"Sister Xia Xi, these guards and the girls in the elevator have not been untied yet. Let me help them untie the ropes." When they arrived at the guard room, Ayumi saw that the elevator girls and guards she had seen in the guard room during the day were still tied to the corner of the wall, so she wanted to go up and help Sister Xia Xi untie them.

Xia Xi grabbed Ayumi in time and explained, "Don't untie her. This lady is the robber's accomplice in the department store."

Conan's mind lit up. So that's it. He had wondered how the robber knew how many members there were in the Junior Detective Team before, but now he understood. She must have entered this department store as an elevator girl earlier to conduct investigations and guide operations. This young lady had seen the Junior Detective Team during the day before, so she naturally knew how many people there were.

Now, this accomplice lady is obviously unconscious. She must have been knocked out by Sister Xia Xi. Conan is a little confused - Sister Xia Xi really has a habit of knocking out criminals.
