Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends.

Youya glanced at the three little brats.

Conan lowered his eyes with a laughing expression on his face. He was convinced.

It's obvious that these three little brats are also very scared, they just like to say this kind of things to scare themselves and others.

Don't be fooled by the smiling faces, Ayumi and Genta's calves are trembling slightly. Only Mitsuhiko is performing slightly better, but he also has sweat on his forehead.

Shine the flashlight over there, Youye carefully examined an iron door embedded in the ground and found that there was fallen rust on the handle, which was in a rather scattered position, as if it had just fallen off not long ago.

It must be that when the door was closed, the iron door vibrated and the rust fell off, causing it to become so messy.

So, someone opened this door not long ago?

It was a bit strange. He had noticed when he was looking for lime just now that the dust in the warehouse was very thick. He didn't know how many years it had been since he had been there.

But the dust near the iron gate is much thinner than other places.

So, someone had been to the old warehouse not long ago, and went straight to the basement?

Are you looking for something, or is there something hidden here?

Thinking of this, Youya handed the flashlight to Conan to ask him to help light it up, then squatted down, grabbed the handle and lifted it up with force.

The door opened and Conan took the opportunity to shine inside.

"?!"

"what!!!"

Youye took a closer look and was also shocked.

When he heard the three little kids talking about the teacher who starved to death, he thought they had heard the rumor from somewhere. He didn't expect that there was actually a skeleton here, and it had turned into bones.

"Teacher Wakasa, please call the police immediately. Genta, please hold the door for me." Yuya said.

Wakasa Rumi was frightened by the white bones. She responded subconsciously to Yuya's words and hurriedly tried to get up, but accidentally bumped her head against the iron gate, making a crisp sound.

"Okay, okay!" Yuan Tai also responded and raised his hand to close the iron door.

Because Genta was not very tall yet, the space for the door to open was limited. Yuya took the flashlight from Conan, bent down and went into the basement, going down the stairs.

Conan followed closely behind.

I took a few steps to the basement, and immediately a rotten smell came into my nose.

Youya covered his mouth and nose with his hands and shone a flashlight on the bones to observe them.

The corpse has completely turned into bones, and the clothes on the body have almost completely rotted away as if they would break at the slightest touch. Judging from the thickness of the dust around them, the bones have probably been here for 10 years.

"It seems like it's been 10 years, and no one has come to the old warehouse during this period. Did no one notice?" Youya complained speechlessly.

Conan said casually: "The old warehouse is rarely used, and it is in the most remote corner of the school. In addition, there are rumors of ghosts. Unless it is necessary, no one will come here."

Youye turned his gaze and found a piece of paper on Bai Gu's right hand. He reached out and touched it tentatively and found that the note was surprisingly well preserved.

But think about it, the warehouses here that store sports equipment will of course have things like lime, so the overall environment of the warehouse is relatively dry.

In addition, the temperature in the basement is generally lower, so it is not surprising that the paper can be preserved for so long.

He picked up the note, shone the flashlight on it, and found that one side was covered with Chinese characters, two in a row, from beginning to end.

Youya knew every word, but couldn't understand what they meant when put together.

Whether you read it horizontally or vertically, it doesn't flow smoothly.

But for some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when reading these words.

Conan stared at the words on the note, his face solemn: "Yuya, do you think the words on it are familiar? I seem to have seen them somewhere."

You was stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "You think he looks familiar too?"

Conan looked towards Yuya with surprise in his eyes.

Yuya nodded silently.

If one person feels that it looks familiar, perhaps he has seen something similar somewhere; but if two people both feel that it looks familiar, and they are two detectives, and if they found it next to a skeleton, then this matter is not simple.

Yuya studied the note carefully, and suddenly his mind flashed back to the memory that had come to him when he opened the door, and he suddenly remembered.

"I remember now. Do you remember when we were little, Xiaolan and I were planning to go into this old warehouse for adventure, but we were stopped by an old man?"

Conan was stunned, his eyes flickering, and finally nodded: "Now that you remind me, I remember it."

"If I remember correctly, that person said that this note is used to seal the terrible monster in the warehouse."

Yuya snorted and laughed: "It seems that this so-called monster..."

The two men's eyes were focused on the white bones.

Soon, Shiratori Renzaburo arrived with his subordinates.

The forensic officer briefly examined the bones, gave a preliminary report, and then took the bones back to the Metropolitan Police Department for a more detailed autopsy.

Since four little brats were involved, Shiratori Renzaburo naturally notified their class teacher Kobayashi Sumiko.

Shiratori Renzaburo stood beside Kobayashi Sumiko, looked at her openly, and then said, "This person died about 10 years ago. He didn't carry any identification with him, so it's very difficult to find out his identity."

"There was a big crack on the back of his head, and he was holding a large bag of lime in his arms. Considering the position where he fell, he probably missed a step and fell while carrying the lime up the stairs, and his back hit the jump box at the bottom of the stairs. This should be the cause of death."

"Besides, there has never been a case of teachers going missing in the school, so I guess it was a thief who came to steal the lime."

You was a little skeptical. How much could a bag of lime be worth, no matter how big it was? Was he really here to steal the lime?

Yuya suddenly discovered a bright spot: "Why are you here, Inspector Shiratori? Where's Inspector Megure?"

Shiratori Renzaburo's face flashed with embarrassment, and his eyes wandered for a moment before he said, "Inspector Megure is handling other cases, so the office asked me to come here."

"Is that so?" Yuya didn't think much about it at first. After all, Tokyo is not just Beikacho, various cases happen every day in other places.

But when he noticed that Shiratori Renzaburo would sneak a peek at Kobayashi Sumiko from time to time, he immediately realized what was going on - what was with Inspector Megure being too busy? It was actually this guy who wanted to take the opportunity to meet Kobayashi Sumiko and took on this case, right?

Yuya elbowed him and said, "Inspector Shiratori, how is the progress between you and Mr. Kobayashi?"

Shiratori Renzaburo blushed and looked away with a guilty look: "Well, it's okay for now."

After saying that, he turned to Kobayashi Sumiko and said, "Anyway, this should be an accident, so we will leave first, Teacher Kobayashi."

Kobayashi Sumiko looked at Shiratori Renzaburo and blushed: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Inspector Shiratori."

I watched Shiratori Renzaburo leave all the way, and I was reluctant to take my eyes off him even after he lost sight of the car.

Yuya glanced around and coughed softly: "The person has left, Mr. Kobayashi."

The four little brats also had teasing expressions on their faces.

Xiaolin Chengzi was so embarrassed and angry: "You guys! Go back to the classroom! Don't run around anymore!"

"Yes!" The four little kids answered, pushing and shoving each other with laughter, and prepared to leave.
