The seemingly heavy wooden door actually didn't take much effort to open. It opened with just a slight push, and the door shaft squeaked and turned as it opened.

Walking into it, it was surprisingly clean inside, with nothing else but a few bunches of hay on the stone floor.

Looking upward, several vertical ladders connect several circles of platforms to the top of the tower. Since the platforms are all circular, as long as you look up from the bottom, you can basically have an unobstructed view of the entire inside of the tower.

"What, it turns out there is nothing."

Genta, who did not see the expected treasure chest or anything like that, curled his lips and complained.

"No one said there must be something in here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hui Yuan Ai walked in from the rear door, looked around and said.

Mitsuhiko and Ayumi were also a little discouraged: "It's a pity, I originally thought I could find a secret passage to the castle..."

"You... you guys... it's almost time to go back..."

Intermittent sounds came from outside the tower door. The children turned their heads and looked back. It turned out to be Dr. Ali.

The distance from the top to the bottom of the tower is actually not that long, but I don’t know if it’s because he ran too fast, or because he was poisoned by fried chicken and cola all the time and his obese body was dragged down by a serious lack of exercise. This distance alone was too long. Dr. A Li's waist was almost broken.

When I finally reached the door at the bottom of the tower, I could only hold on to the wall and gasp.

click -

It was like the sound of some mechanism loosening. The moment Dr. A Li pressed his palm on the stone wall beside the door, the stone where he happened to press his hand was suddenly pushed in, swallowing half of his arm.

"Ughhhhh!"

Dr. A Li was startled and subconsciously exclaimed.

At the same time, the mechanism was activated, and a large, dark, bottomless hole suddenly opened on the ground at the bottom of the tower. The completely unprepared Haihara Ai and the others felt that their feet were empty, and then fell into it.

“Big, something bad is going to happen!!!”

……

Time will reach now, in the study of Kasaka Kiichi on the first floor.

"The passage to, downward...is open!"

Seeing the machine door slowly opening, Ganjiang's voice trembled when he spoke excitedly. His old eyes were fixed on the dark stairs going down, as if he had already seen the treasure right in front of him.

Serabel threw the utility knife back to the desk and smoothed her clothes.

"Okay, just get down from here."

Eh?

Conan was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

"Brother Sera, won't you go down with us?"

"Well, I won't go with him. It seems that although Mr. Kiichi Kasaka likes to do tricks, he is basically puzzle-solving and has no lethality, so I won't accompany him."

Serabel turned towards the door of the room. Just as she was about to lift her legs to leave, she stopped and said to the old housekeeper.

"But just in case, Mr. Butler, please lock the door of this study after I leave."

"I understand." The old housekeeper obeyed.

"Okay, see you all then."

After saying this, Serabel left the study.

After leaving the room, she heard the cumbersome sound of the door closing behind her. Serabel took out her mobile phone from her body, took out the phone book and dialed Dr. Ali's number.

The call was quickly connected, and the sound of Dr. A Li driving was heard on the other end.

"Hello, this is Dr. A Li..."

"it's me."

Serabel interrupted him with an absolutely calm tone.

"I saw before, doctors, that something happened to you at the west tower. Did something happen?"

"Oh, it's Sera-kun!"

Upon hearing Serabel's voice, Dr. Ali was surprised at first, and then became regretful.

"To put it bluntly, it's my fault that I didn't think much of them..."

Just like this, this, and that.

"That means they fell, right?"

Serabel quickly figured out the cause and effect.

Dr. A Li hummed twice: "That's it. I'm going back now to get tools to come to the rescue. Sera-kun, please don't act impulsively!"

"Don't worry, I'm not impulsive."

Serabel added.

"I just went to save them."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

……

At the same time, in the dark underground space below the tower, the three little ones, Mitsuhiko Ayumuta, were leaning on each other and crowded beside the slope they had previously slid down.

"Speaking of how long we have been here, we are not going to die here..."

"It's not like you'll die. You'll probably be hungry for a while at most."

Hui Yuan Ai's voice sounded faintly.

"Doctor, he should be on his way back to get tools to find a way to save us now. All we have to do is stay here and don't run around, so as not to make the search and rescue more difficult."

"B-But it took us almost two hours on the way here. If the doctor goes back and comes here again, wouldn't it take four hours?"

Ayumi felt a little frightened at the thought of staying in such a dark and cold place for four hours.

"That's why I told you not to run around. Now you know the consequences."

Hui Yuan Ai's tone was still light. Although she said these words, there was not much blame in her voice.

"Isn't this mainly because I want to find the treasure before Conan does?" Mitsuhiko scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Then it became like this..."

Haibara suddenly stopped midway through his lament.

As if she heard something, she looked up with breathless concentration.

hiss--

It was the sound of clothes rubbing against stone slabs.

Is someone coming down again? !

Realizing a certain possibility, the brown-haired girl's expression changed slightly, she pursed her lips and waved to the three people who were still hugging each other for warmth.

It means - find a place to hide quickly!

But it was too late.

The next second, a figure slipped down the slope. At the moment when it was about to hit the bottom, he pulled out two strangely shaped sharp blades from the boxes on the outside of his legs. He held them behind his back and stabbed them into the ground beneath him, stopping the car.

Serabel looked back, his eyes intersected with the brown-haired girl and a certain boy's death group in mid-air, and he waved with one hand.

"Hey, we meet again."?

Chapter 145 Don't spoil the kids!

To be honest, this reunion scene was a bit weird.

Just imagine, under a dark bulge, a few children who accidentally stepped on a trap and fell here were huddled in a corner and shivering, and the next second a man with two axes rushed down from above.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a scene in a horror movie where a murderer chases a child.

According to the plot, the children should disperse in a hurry, and only the smartest children can escape in the end.

In theory it should be like this...

But in fact, it was the three little ones whose eyes lit up the first time they saw Serabel appear.

"You are the big brother I saw above!" This is Ayumi.

"Are you here to rescue us?" This is Mitsuhiko.

"Wow, what a handsome knife. Can you lend it to me to play with?" This was Yuanta who not only came up to him but was also ready to use it directly.

"Ah, this won't work..."

Seeing that this little fat man with a head that looked like a Japanese rice ball was about to grab the edge of the knife, Serabel quickly pulled it out of the ground, spun the silver knife in the air and put it in the box.

"Tch, big brother is so stingy..."

The fat hand grabbed nothing, and Genta curled his lips in disappointment.

A few black threads hung from Serabel's forehead, wondering if this was a matter of stinginess.

Seeing this, Hui Yuan Ai coughed lightly: "Then what's going on up there now?"

"The situation is... very good."

Serabel recalled what Dr. Ali said on the phone earlier.

"Uncle Maori and the others have already found the entrance and went down. Dr. Ali is rushing to Tokyo after seeing you fall, and is preparing to go back to get tools to rescue you."

"Wait, wait a minute, you said they have found the entrance and gone down?" The brown-haired girl was stunned.

"Yes."

Serabel's tone was strange and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Hui Yuan Ai stayed for a while, then stretched out his index finger to point upward.

"Does that mean there's no one up there now?"

"correct."

Serabel continued to nod.

Hui Yuan Ai pursed her lips a few times, and after going back and forth between wanting to speak and then stopping, she spoke word by word.

"That means if Shi Kaobing comes, no one will know about it?"

"She can't even come in...?"

Serabel spread her hands needlessly.

"Uncle Maori asked the housekeeper to lock all the doors and windows when we first entered. If she didn't want to attract attention and conduct an explosive invasion, she would have to climb to the second floor. There is still a window open there, and she can get in there. Yes, provided she dares... Because the location is close to a cliff, if she accidentally slips, she may fall and break her neck. "

"...Then how did you get out?"

Haihara Ai realized another more serious problem.

Serabel said matter-of-factly: "Of course it came out of the second-floor window I mentioned."

"what……"

The brown-haired girl opened her mouth silently.

Did you say you would break your neck?

"I have good skills." London Glory Executioner said plausibly.

Mitsuhiko raised his hand and asked: "Then, how are we going to get up now?"

Serabel did not answer immediately, but took out her mobile phone and turned on its built-in flashlight function.

His mobile phone had just been fully charged when he got off the cruise ship in Tokyo Bay. After being on standby for so long and calling Dr. Agasa before, he still had 90.00% of the battery left, almost fully charged.

As soon as the lights were turned on, the dark underground space suddenly brightened up, as if someone had smashed a huge lighting flower seed underground in the Hyrule continent of Tears of the Kingdom.

Just like the clean and tidy painting above, the underground of the tower is also clean.

There were no traces of dried blood, no horrible instruments of torture, and no mutilated bones. There was just a broken rope ladder, which looked like it should have connected the upper and lower parts. However, due to its age, the connection to the upper part was eroded by weathering. It looks like it finally broke and fell down here.
