Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 266 Amuro Toru is a Good Hostage

  Goatee always felt that with the wisdom of the leader, the puzzles he set should not be solved so quickly.

   Since it has been solved so quickly now, the puzzles here may actually be like those written in mystery novels. One link is solved, and there is another link.

   In short, if the detective who was sent to the door is released at this time, if they cannot solve the remaining puzzles, they will be very blind.

  Amuro Toru has no other arrangements today. After all, in the schedule, this is the time that belongs to the Izu Mystery Tour. He reckons others will too.

   He was about to agree, but suddenly he heard Jiang Xia's suggestion: "It will take more than six hours before it gets dark, which is a long time. Why don't you try it now."

   For the two groups of ordinary quality murderousness, I felt a little bit of a loss for a whole day.

   Half a day is fine.

  Conan and Amuro were a little surprised when they heard this, and turned to look at Jiang Xia.

Whether it was the "mirror in the armrest" mentioned by Ai Haibara when he was at the door before, or the hole in the wall of the study at this time, or the vanity mirror fixed on the table, it all explains one point - this villa The mysterious mechanism in it is related to "light".

The two detectives have even drawn a simulation map in their hearts - at night, strong light shines from the lion's title ring at the door, the light will be reflected by various mirrors hidden inside and outside the villa, and finally a beam of light will be formed. Enter the Cuckoo Clock and activate that mechanism.

Since many mirrors are installed outside the house and interfered by sunlight, this mechanism cannot be activated during the day... They remember that Jiang Xia noticed the mirrors everywhere before the devil probe in the Cuckoo Clock, and put them into place. They are connected, it is impossible not to think of this.

   As he was thinking about it, he saw Jiang Xia walking to the window and drawing the curtains.

  Amuro Toru and Conan looked at his action, stunned for a moment, suddenly understood what Jiang Xia meant, and their eyes jumped: "You shouldn't..."

   Jiang Xia carefully put the two curtains together.

   What used to hang here were ordinary cloth curtains. In recent days, the unfortunate granddaughter who inherited the villa felt that someone was peeping, so she replaced the curtains with more dense blackout models.

   As soon as the curtains were drawn, the room suddenly became dark.

   Jiang Xia picked up the strong light flashlight on the cabinet, turned it on, turned the knob, and gathered the light into a stronger bundle.

   He did not go out to find the lion title ring, but walked to the Cuckoo Clock and observed the mirror fixed on the desk and the hole in the wall of the villa.

   Then calculate the angle and illuminate it.

  ——The reflection of the bells and whistles is a photo, and it is also a photo to directly use the flashlight to face.

  Under the light of the flashlight, the Cuckoo Clock hung silently on the wall without moving.

  Jiang Xia was not surprised. He raised his hand and beckoned, calling out to Huiyuan, and plugging the flashlight into her: "Hold it, don't move, keep this angle."

  Haihara Ai was a little puzzled, but she still held on to the flashlight and stood still as Jiang Xia said.

  The light hits the Cuckoo Clock directly.

   The attention of others also focused on it. Jiang Xia took the opportunity to glance at the position in the room at this time. Look back.

   There is a reason why Haibara Ai specially asked him to help him with the flashlight.

   - If all goes well, then that jewel-encrusted watch will appear right away.

   At that time, the two gangsters are likely to turn against them and **** the gem watch.

   The robbers are not good at solving puzzles, and now they are asking others for help. They are afraid that they will get in the way, so they subconsciously left Jiangxia a distance and stood at the door.

   And Haibara Ai was not very interested in solving puzzles, and was a little far away, but just now he was closer to the robber.

   If you continue to let her poke there like just now, in a minute, she will likely be honorably promoted to the hostage.

  Don't worry about Conan, he is the most reassuring. He has long been interested in standing under the Cuckoo Clock, looking up and waiting to witness the miracle.

   In short, after summoning Haibara Ai, the closest to the robbers, the most suitable one to take as a hostage, became Toru Amuro...

   Come on boss.

   Jiang Xia silently waved him two pull-down **** in his heart, the same style as Miyano Akemi.

After   , he glanced at the plastered hand of the man in the middle, and when the other party realized something was wrong and stared back vigilantly, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the Cuckoo Clock on the wall again.

   He raised his hand and moved the minute hand, making the time continue to fast-forward.

  According to the "Night" clue provided by the devil triplets, the mechanism in the villa can only be triggered at night. According to the situation here, Jiang Xia felt that the conditions for controlling this were nothing more than time and light.

   Just now, he drew the peep-proof blackout curtain of his unfortunate granddaughter. The light in the room was very dark, but he still failed to trigger the cuckoo clock.

   So time is probably one of the trigger elements.

   And the mechanical cuckoo clock on the wall in front of me does not have the function of automatic network calibration. When it is dialed, it thinks it is the time, which is very easy to fool. Therefore, Jiang Xia felt that shading + fast forward should be able to meet the trigger requirements.

Of course, there is another situation, that is, those mirrors used for reflection have been made with some precise Ke learning hands and feet. After the light passes through them, the properties will change. Only that special abnormal light can turn on the cuckoo clock and so on. ...

   Fortunately, the grandfather who set up the mechanism did not expect that someone would solve his exquisite puzzle so carelessly, and he did not leave such a backhand.

  If he stayed, Jiang Xia would have to take down the clock directly...

  ——When it was more than seven o'clock, the Cuckoo Clock responded.

   The small window on the watch clicked open, and what popped out was no longer a ferocious ghost, but a friendly-looking pigeon. The timekeeping sound from the clock was no longer a shrill "squeak--", "squeak--", but a series of pleasant cooing sounds.

   The jewel-encrusted watch, like a ribbon, was slung across the pigeon.

   Jiang Xia raised his hand and took it off.

  The excited voice of the middle-pointed man came from behind, and he saw the gem that kept flashing under the flashlight: "Grandfather left me such a great gift, thank you for helping me find it!"

"It is indeed a great gift." Jiang Xia shook the watch in his hand, and suddenly said, "——The stolen goods that the 'Goblin' bandit group has not recovered, I heard that each piece is a treasure with an estimated value of tens of millions. "

   The expressions of the two robbers suddenly changed.

   Haibara Ai was also startled, and hugged the flashlight vigilantly.

Amuro Toru had an expectant look - the goblin bandit was once famous for a while, and the devil that popped out of the cuckoo clock in the study just now happened to be the same toy that the goblin band would leave on the scene every time they committed a crime. Again, this is express.

  Conan also thought about it, but he still couldn't say anything. He could only listen by the side, looking gloomy.

If there were no strangers around, he would be able to open his reasoning, but not now, he must be honest as a first-year elementary school student... The main reason is that the boss Jiang Xia is very difficult to fool, and there is always a kind of daring to float in front of him. The sense of crisis that the vest will be stripped off in minutes.

   In short, the organization of all evil...
