Oritis in the world of Detective Conan
Chapter 28: Blue Castle Exploration Incident (Part )
Conan was knocked unconscious by the sneak attack, while the explorer dodged the attack nimbly.
"Hehe, you are not the lady, you are just a servant who has had plastic surgery." Seeing Conan fainted, the explorer sneered.
"Don't bother me!" The fake lady was about to step forward, waving a stick, but she saw a shocking scene.
The man before her turned a pale grey, his figure suddenly growing taller, a hollow visible from his chest to his abdomen. Upon closer inspection, his body was made of nothing but rubble. The man—no, the monster—let out a slow breath, a sinister and cruel smile on his face. He pulled out a pickaxe and charged at her.
"Ah!!!" The fake lady let out a horrific scream and turned to run. She was confident she could escape the monster's pursuit. Indeed, no one was more familiar with these secret passages than she was. No one...
The prospector, or rather, Fool Gold, hummed a tune as he strode after the old woman: "That won't do! How can you yell in such a deep mine?"
"Don't you know... this will cause a landslide?" As the last syllable fell, Fool Gold quickly threw his pickaxe, smashing out a large unstable area.
After taking two collapse injuries, the fake lady crawled out of the secret passage through an exit and locked the secret door behind her, fearing that Fool Gold would chase her out and smash her head.
[Novelist: Tsk tsk tsk, that's why we shouldn't keep Fool's Gold on stairs or in narrow passages.]
[Composer: I thought you were going to kill her straight away.]
[Fool's Gold: Kill him right away. How are we going to continue playing? Hehehe~ Besides, you haven't come over to try your hand yet.]
[Novelist: Then I should thank you.]
At this time, everyone finally discovered that Conan and the explorer were missing. After searching for a while without success, everyone decided to go eat first.
During the meal, the frightened lady asked the housekeeper to send the food to her room after eating a few bites, and she wanted to go back to her room to eat.
After dinner, the three little ones anxiously went out to look for Conan and the explorer because they heard the master talk about a case where someone disappeared in a tower and was found starved to death in the woods.
Seeing that the novelist was not in a hurry, Dr. Agasa couldn't help but ask, and the novelist replied: "That guy crawled out of a dark place like a mine. Don't underestimate him, doctor."
"Do your best, Doctor. We can only count on you and Mr. Orpheus right now," Huiyuan said. "And I don't believe that guy will get into trouble so easily."
"How about this, let's go find a phone and contact the police outside." The novelist suggested to Dr. Agasa.
"Oh, that's fine too. It would be much more convenient if the police came."
"Well then, Miss Haibara, please take care of Alice."
The novelist went with Dr. Agasa to look for the phone, while the little girl stayed with the three little ones.
Soon the two found the phone at a corner, but the secret door attracted Dr. Agasa's attention.
As the two entered the secret door, the mechanism suddenly closed, and Dr. Agasa was instantly killed. The novelist confronted the fake lady.
"You don't seem to have learned your lesson."
"What are you talking about, you pretty boy? You can never be my opponent! I..." Before the fake lady finished her words, she found that the man in front of her had also undergone some changes.
Unlike Fool's Gold's transformation, a black mist surged under the novelist. After the mist dissipated, a tall figure appeared. He wore a bird-beak mask, his eyes glowed purple under the mask, his hair was disheveled, black mist flowed through his hair, and his hands were like sharp bird claws with sharp pen tips tied to their claws.
"You...you are also, no..." Seeing this scene, the fake lady turned around and ran away without hesitation.
The cry of ravens rang in her ears. Feeling that she was being targeted, the fake lady dared not breathe for a moment. Just when she was about to reach the exit of the secret passage, the sharp claw blade pierced her shoulder, and blood splattered everywhere.
Enduring the pain, she fiercely locked the secret door. Feeling that she had escaped danger, she decided to go directly to the tower.
[Explorer: The vast open space is holding back nightmares. This is hilarious.]
[Composer: If she had known to turn, Orpheus would have hit the wall.]
[Nightmare: Stop mocking my sewer strength, come and join me.]
[Explorer: Okay, I'll take Conan there right away.]
After realizing that the only two adults left were also missing, Huibara decided to explore the castle on her own with the rest of the group.
After discovering secret passages and hidden doors inside the castle, Huibara realized that the missing people must have entered the secret passages.
Following the little girl's suggestion, they arrived at the tower, only to discover the entrance was open. Surprised, Huiyuan decided to explore the way herself and asked the little girl to watch over the others.
After a while, the three little ones could no longer contain their excitement and became very worried about Huibara, so the little girl suggested that they all go together to find Huibara, and told everyone to be careful not to fall behind, after all, there was no idea what hidden secret passages might be in this tall tower.
Huibara found that the little girl brought three people in, so she had to continue exploring together, and the group also found the skeleton.
"Judging from her hair, she must be a woman. She's lost all her teeth, and her leg bones look like..."
"Oh, what are you kids doing here?" A sudden voice interrupted Huibara's analysis of the skeleton.
The little girl immediately stood in front of the three children, placed a page of the book on the spot, and then shouted: "She is the murderer, everyone run!"
The fake lady was caught off guard and was bounced away by the pages of the book. She immediately chased after everyone.
On the way to escape, Hui Yuan told them the truth about the fire four years ago and that the real identity of the fake lady should be a servant who had exchanged identities with the lady.
"Yes, the purpose of my coming to this castle is for those treasures." After the fake lady caught up with a few people, she suddenly felt that the confidence she had lost to Fool's Gold and Nightmare had returned.
"Don't worry, I won't let you kids die in the dark underground like that old woman."
The fake lady grinned and was about to attack, but the can kicked by Conan knocked the weapon out of her hand.
"Where do you want to go, old woman?" The explorer smiled maliciously, and the novelist with the same weird smile stood beside him.
Seeing these two people, the fake lady almost had a heart attack.
"Impossible, you, how could you?"
Novelist: "This is all thanks to Norton. I almost forgot to mention that he is a very experienced underground worker. Exploring mines before was no problem for him, let alone this small secret passage."
"In the final analysis, you are the more useless one. I can walk out of this secret passage with my eyes closed." The explorer said with disdain.
Conan: "Oh, are you planning to run away? Then we'll never get the treasure, okay?"
"Did you solve the puzzle?"
After learning that the secret passage leading to the treasure was behind the portrait of the Grand Master, the fake Grand Madam rushed over frantically.
When she opened the glowing door, she discovered that the so-called treasure was nothing more than a beautiful view of the entire castle from a high vantage point.
Looking at the collapsed fake lady slumped to the ground in despair, the explorer muttered to himself:
"For the sake of wealth, I'm willing to sacrifice my youth and beauty, but in the end, it's all in vain."
"I've done that myself, invested time and energy, and ended up with nothing but a pile of fool's gold."
"But it's a pity that not everyone is as lucky as me."
"The beauty you disdain is something we, struggling in the darkness, will never see in our lifetime."
"I have escaped from that dark hell, haven't I?"
