Chapter 459: Jewel Thief (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)

Da. Da. Da.

Rushing footsteps rippled in the darkness.

Gan Jiang rushed into the stone room and shone his flashlight around excitedly.

Sakaki Cheng and others followed closely.

There was a faint burnt smell floating in the air, and it was difficult to identify the source for a while.

"Hush, there's a sound of water!"

With his ears perked up, Conan looked around, his eyes resting on the stone platform in front of him.

On the stone platform, there is a coffin with complicated patterns carved on it. On both sides of the coffin, there are clear underground springs flowing.

This is where the sound of water comes from.

electric light

Of course it's impossible.

But on both sides of the stone platform, there were two simple oil lamps.

Taking out a lighter, Sakaki stepped forward and lit the wick.

Crack!

The swaying orange-red flame rose and illuminated the stone chamber.

"hiss"

With Huo Miao's generous contribution, everyone saw clearly the scene in front of them.

The light, exposed ridges and flying ribs frame the dome above the head, giving people a sense of tension and solemnity.

Downward is a huge coffin, sitting on the top of the stone platform, followed by three statues covered with cloaks. Judging from the wings behind the statues

It should be an angel in Christianity, just like what Sakaki saw when he looked up at the dome in the hall, the Virgin Mary being worshiped by believers.

The magnificent statue did not attract Sakaki's attention.

Staring at the candlestick with fluttering flames, thoughtfully.

Wax will melt when heated, but there is always a process.

why

A lot of melted wax oil has accumulated under this candlestick?

Immediately, his pupils shrank, and he turned around suddenly, shining the flashlight beam

A dark figure was quietly walking along the path they came from.

When the beam of light shone on him, the black shadow realized that he was exposed, no longer lowered his steps, and began to run wildly.

"Made!"

Cursing secretly, Sakaki immediately chased after him.

He should have discovered it right away!

It's all because of that old guy Gan Jiang Yi, who covered up the other party's breathing and footsteps!

This is also why Sakaki likes to act alone.

Extra teammates will not only fail to bring him a sense of security, but will also become a burden for him.

Seeing Sakaki Cheng rushing out, everyone was a little puzzled. Only Shiratori Rensaburo reacted the fastest. He picked up a flashlight and was about to follow, but...

"You stay!"

Sakaki shouted without looking back:

"I'll chase him!"

Shi Kaobing is in the stone room, how can Sakaki Cheng trust him to act alone?

Of all the people present, the only one who could go 1v1 with Shi Kaobing was Kidd.

If even Kidd leaves, who else can control Shi Kaobing?

Rensaburo Shiratori froze his figure, looked at Sakaki's retreating back, gritted his teeth, and turned to look at the coffin.

Except for him, Mouri Kogoro, Conan, and Kasaka Natsumi, no one cared about the thief.

Everyone knows that the second memory egg is placed in the coffin.

The generals and others gathered around the coffin and were discussing how to open the lock on it.

With their technology, even if they don't have the key, it's only a matter of time before they can pick the lock.

but.

"Please give way."

Shiratori Rensaburo squeezed between them:

"The people lying in the coffin should be Miss Natsumi's relatives. As a police officer, I have the obligation to guard the coffin for her."

"No one is allowed to destroy the coffin without Miss Natsumi's permission!"

Time, how long can it be delayed?

Kidd doesn't know, but he understands

It takes one second to delay.

If the second memory egg is really in the coffin, Shi Kaobing will definitely take action to snatch it.

Pu Siqinglan frowned but said nothing.

On the contrary, Gan Jiangyi was not happy:

"I'm talking about the White Bird Police Department, in your eyes, are we grave robbers?"

"For the second memory egg, Miss Natsumi will definitely allow us to open the coffin!"

“Otherwise, we’d be so idle that we’d come all the way here to see the scenery?”

"Who forced you to come?"

Mouri Kogoro came forward and looked at him coldly:

"I am so shy that I insist on following you. Why do you say that hard work is worth the effort now?"

"Even if the coffin contains memory eggs, does it have anything to do with you?"

Kogoro Mouri, who has always had a very high emotional intelligence, would not say such offensive words under normal circumstances.

But Gan Jiang's attempt to pry open the coffin had already touched his bottom line.

"you!"

The general's face turned red as soon as he was told that, and he opened his mouth to get angry.

"Okay, okay."

First-class clerk Sirouov quickly came out to smooth things over:

"This is Miss Natsumi's castle. We really are not qualified to make decisions for her."

"If Miss Natsumi does not agree to open the coffin, let this matter end here."

Seeing that Pu Si Qinglan was silent, Gan Jiangyi did not dare to offend the public. He turned his head and sat down on the raised edge of the stone platform, thinking about how to get the second memory egg.

Natsumi Kasaka looked thoughtfully at the copper lock on the coffin. She picked up her bag and started rummaging through it.

Just when her eyes lit up and she wanted to take out something.

Shiratori Rensaburo walked up to her and whispered a few words in her ear.

With a slight tremor in her body, Natsumi Kasaka hesitated briefly and put down her bag.

Bang!

At this moment, a gunshot was heard in the corridor, and everyone looked around.

In the darkness, smoke was still rising from the muzzle of the gun. Sakaki stared coldly at the black figure that fell to the ground in front of him, and slowly stepped forward.

"Ah, no."

The shadow's eyes were full of fear. Seeing Sakaki approaching step by step, he knew that the opponent had an absolute advantage.

He covered his bleeding right thigh, waved his hands repeatedly, and threw out a satchel:

"Don't shoot."

"The jewelry is all here."

Sakaki Cheng kicked his bag and sent it flying, causing the colorful jewelry 'Dingling Bells' to scatter on the ground.

With the gun pointed at the black shadow's head, Sakaki's eyes were cold and he interrogated in a voice without any emotion:

"name?"

"Dignified Ben Yimu."

Move the muzzle down and aim at the second leg.

Bang!

"ah!!!"

The black shadow let out a violent scream, covered his legs, and shivered in pain:

"You you."

"name."

Sakaki asked again.

"I told you my name is Kazuki Domoto!!!"

"Profession."

"Yes, I used to work as a servant at the Kasaka family, but now I am unemployed."

Domoto Kazuki swallowed, and his nervous heart was about to explode.

he.

I have no idea what the man in front of me is thinking.

The opponent doesn't play according to the routine at all.

"I've given you all the jewelry, can't you let me go?"

Domoto Kazuki was a little unwilling to give up:

"I, I'm just a thief."

"How did you know the password to the secret room?"

Without answering his question, Sakaki pointed the gun at his head coldly:

"You only have one chance, don't challenge my patience."

"I said it, I said it!"

Afraid that the other party would shoot him if he disagreed, Domoto Kazuki shouted:

"Someone sent me an email two days ago, telling me the location and password of the secret room, and also said"

"As long as I steal the things hidden in the coffin, I can get 1.5 billion!"
