Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 375 The elevator is overloaded, don't hang up the phone

"How is it? Knowing that you can change back to the original form, are you already ready to move!"

Conan narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, waiting for Xiao Ai's response.

In this regard, Xiao Ai's expression was slightly indifferent, and she did not respond.

Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but straighten his face, and said depressedly:
"What, boring."

As he said that, Conan continued to casually check the bookshelves, and then suddenly saw a pile of books in the open cabinet next to the window, so he walked over curiously, squatted down, and put the books in the cabinet I took out the book and looked at it——

"The original book imported from abroad?"

Looking at the cover of the book that was still sealed in Conan's hand, Xiao Ai who came over couldn't help saying.

"Strange, these imported books, why are the backs of the books facing inwards, have they been turned upside down? But they are still wrapped in plastic sleeves?"

Slightly puzzled, Conan couldn't help saying.

"Little friend, this is not the book you should read!"

While thinking, suddenly a figure came behind Conan and said to Conan.

Turning around and looking, there is an old man in a suit who looks to be in his fifties. He is the curator of the Mihua Library, and his name is Hideji Tsugawa.

"Ah! I'm sorry."

Replied politely, Conan returned the book in his hand to Hideji Tsugawa, and then saw him take out the box containing these imported books from the cabinet, and put the few books that Conan gave him into it. After the box, he closed the door of the cabinet, and moved the box to prepare to leave.

At this time, Xiao Ai walked towards the toilet beside her with an indifferent expression. Seeing this, Ayumi, who was still reading, couldn't help but put down the book and followed Xiao Ai to the toilet, leaving only Mitsuhiko and Yuanta in their seats Waiting for Ayumi to come back.

"Haihara-san, wait for me!"

Following Xiao Ai to the women's toilet, Ayumi called Xiao Ai to stop her.

"Yoshida-san, what's the matter?"

Somewhat unexpectedly, Xiao Ai asked.

"that……"

A little hesitant, the words in Ayumi's heart were a little hard to say for a while, but after thinking about it, she was still a little embarrassed, and summoned up the courage to ask:
"Why do you know Conan so well, Haibara-san?"

"what?"

Puzzled, Xiao Ai said unexpectedly.

"Because, when you are alone with Conan, you can chat with Conan very speculatively every time..."

Lowering her head slightly, Ayumi avoided Xiao Ai's sight.

"You, do you like Conan!"

Gathering up her courage, Ayumi raised her head, looked at Xiao Ai, and asked this question seriously.

Hearing this, Xiao Ai couldn't help being a little surprised, and then showed a mysterious smile:

"If yes?"

It's like asking rhetorically.

"what?"

Ayumi's tone couldn't help but weaken a little, and then said intermittently:
"No... can't..."

"Don't worry, I still don't like that guy."

Seeing the little girl in front of her say so coyly, Xiao Ai didn't do much teasing, and said this sentence in a flat tone.

Regarding this, Ayumi, who was still a little downcast, immediately beamed with joy——

"That's great!"

Saying that, he ran out of the women's room full of joy——

"really!"

Walking out of the door of the women's toilet, Ayumi did not forget to turn her head and say something.

Seeing this, Xiao Ai couldn't help showing a faint smile——Edogawa, what are you going to do?

However, at this moment, outside the library, there was a rush of sirens.

Hearing this sound, Motota and Mitsuhiko, who were still waiting for Ayumi to come back to read, couldn't help but ran to the window curiously, tiptoed and looked downstairs——

"Ah! Come and see Conan!"

After Yuantai saw the scene downstairs, he couldn't help but said to Conan who was also in front of the window:

"There is a police car! It seems that something happened!"

While talking, suddenly a female staff member ran over in a panic, came to this reading room, found Tsugawa Hideji, and said:

"Curator! The police are downstairs..."

"The police are coming in!"

Seeing the policeman coming out of the police car downstairs and walking into the library, Mitsuhiko couldn't help but said.

"Could it be that something happened!"

Ayumi was originally in a good mood. After hearing that the police were coming, she immediately came over and said excitedly.

"I'll take a look!"

Seeing this, Conan knew that there must be an incident, and he couldn't help but ran towards the elevator beside him. At this time, Hideji Tsugawa just walked into the elevator with the box——

"Wait a minute, Conan!"

In response to this, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi couldn't help but ran up, and came out of the toilet, watching them all run towards the elevator, sighed, and followed.

However, just after walking a few steps, Xiao Ai's cell phone rang, took it out to check, and found that it was Gao Yuan calling——

"Hello? What's the matter?"

After answering the phone, Xiao Ai asked with a cold expression.

"Huihara, I'm sorry, I may have to stay in the hospital for an infusion until night...cough cough...you don't have to wait for me for dinner...cough cough..."

On the phone, Gao Yuan coughed non-stop, with a somewhat hoarse voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Ai couldn't help but cast a blank look:
"Ah, why is your condition getting worse..."

While talking, Xiao Ai also followed the detective team to the elevator entrance, and saw that just after they ran into the elevator, the elevator made a "ding ding ding" sound, indicating that it was overloaded——

"It's overloaded!"

Mitsuhiko couldn't help shouting, "The passenger capacity is only seven!"

Looking at the text sign in the elevator, Mitsuhiko said.

"1, 2, 3..."

In this regard, Yuan Tai began to count the number of people in the elevator——

"Strange, there are exactly seven people!"

Yuan Tai was a little flustered, and she snapped her fingers, fearing that she had made a wrong calculation.

"Idiot! You forgot to count it yourself!"

Conan couldn't help complaining.

So, seeing that the elevator was overloaded, Xiao Ai stood outside the elevator and did not go in, but seeing the staffing in the elevator at this time, four adults and four children, Xiao Ai couldn't help blinking, feeling something was wrong ——

"Hui Yuan, where are you now?"

Suddenly, Gao Yuan's calm tone on the other end of the phone became a little serious and asked.

"Mihua Library, what's wrong?"

Sensing the change in Gao Yuan's tone, Xiao Ai asked suspiciously.

"Don't hang up the phone yet!"

Gao Yuan suddenly said seriously.

At this time, because the elevator was overloaded, several members of the detective team had no choice but to get out of the elevator and ran downstairs from the stairs beside it, while Xiao Ai continued to answer the phone and followed Conan and the others.

At this point, the elevator overload warning stopped, and the elevator door closed smoothly——

"I listen to you. I didn't get into the elevator. What's wrong?"

When she came to the stairwell, Xiao Ai continued to ask puzzledly.

"Ahem... When it's overloaded, how many adults and how many children are in the elevator?"

On the day of the phone call, Gao Yuan asked.

"Four adults, and Conan and his four..."

Saying that, Xiao Ai finally realized what was wrong just now:

"Hey! Gao Yuan! What's going on! You didn't let me into the elevator, did you notice something!"

"Leave that aside, I heard sirens in the background. Is there a policeman here? Don't hang up the phone, go and listen to what the police are here for."

Gao Yuan instructed.

So, Xiao Ai nodded, did not hang up the call, and followed Conan and the others down the stairs to the first floor of the library.

At this time, the police officer Megure who led the team was already here, and began to ask some questions to the library director Hideji Tsugawa who just came downstairs...
