Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

Chapter 164 163, Senior, don’t you feel disgusted?

Sano looked back at the motionless trees outside the cave, and quickly groped around the altar. In the end, he discovered that the altar did not actually have any mechanism, and was simply used to block a large hole at the back.

…Do you dare to be a little more simple?

Sano did not hesitate and got into the hole directly. After adapting to the dark environment, he discovered that there were obvious artificial steps under his feet.

Sano went down the steps, and a light appeared in front of his eyes. At the end of the steps, there was indeed a large cave near the sea on the edge of Shikishima.

It's just that this cave is empty. Not to mention the gold, there isn't even a drop of dog poop.

Sano searched the cave for a while, but found nothing except new fractures on the edge of the cave entrance.

It seems that the Shenlong must have been hidden here before. It was probably because of the storm that the cave entrance collapsed, and the Shenlong was allowed to float out.

Sano did not stay here any longer, and quickly set off back to the Navy Cave. After restoring the altar to its original state, he returned to the hotel where he had arranged to meet up with Belmode.

About an hour later, Belmod also returned to the hotel and exchanged information with Sano.

"You said that Kogoro Mori drank too much at noon and was attacked during his speech in the afternoon?"

Belmode nodded: "Well, although the village chief said it was an accident, I saw that someone put a ignition device in the colored ball. Someone should have put it in deliberately. The purpose was not to directly kill Mouri Kogoro.

Just to scare him into leaving."

Sano understood the meaning behind Belmod's words.

On this island, someone obviously knows where the billion gold is, or at least has a big clue, so they don't want Kogoro Mori to stay in order to avoid discovering something.

"It should have nothing to do with the village chief. I eavesdropped on their conversation. Mouri Kogoro wanted to leave at first, but the village chief directly told him that the navigation rights of all ships were blocked. Everyone is now trapped.

On this island.”

"The old man at the back said that he could send Mouri Kogoro and the others away, but the detective seemed to be aroused and said that he wanted to stay and find the person who attacked him and one billion gold."

Having said this, Belmod paused: "Also, I saw something strange."

"Before the attack on Kogoro Mouri, at the back door of the lecture, the guy from Tokyo had a dispute with a person on the island. The two seemed to know each other, and they seemed to have admitted their mistake. I asked about it, and who was on the island?

The guy’s name is Hamada.”

Sano rubbed his fingers and nodded: "You can't be wrong. The person who attacked Mouri Kogoro should be Hamada. He hid the Shenlong before. If you want to find one billion gold, you have to get it from him.

"

Belmode looked at Sano and nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that the other party had found something useful while collecting information in the afternoon.

"Then, action at night?"

"Operation at night."

…

Sano and Belmode slipped out of the hotel after dark, but their action failed before it even started.

"Where are the people?"

In the lighthouse, Sano and Belmod searched twice but could not find Hamada. Even before they arrived, the lighthouse seemed to have been rummaged through, and there was a mess everywhere.

If Hamada hadn't just gone out, someone might have kidnapped Hamada before Sano and Belmod.

"You were careless. You should have kept an eye on him first."

It wasn't just Sano who looked ugly, but also Belmode, especially the latter.

After all, in Bermod's view, he was already a veteran and a high-ranking member of the organization, and he even kept calling himself a senior in front of Sano.

As a result, it didn't matter that Sano didn't pay attention, but he didn't pay attention either.

Isn't this purely embarrassing?

"Are there any suspects?"

Sano answered the question: "Do you know where the guy from the travel agency in Tokyo lives?"

"Know."

Belmod didn't waste any time and quickly led the way to the travel agency man's residence.

But an accident happened again. Before the two of them could run far away, a series of rapid bells rang.

what's the situation?

Sano frowned, and Belmod on the side quickly explained: "Generally speaking, this kind of bell represents a major event happening on the island."

"Split up, I'll go find that guy, you go see what's going on."

"good."

After Belmode told Sano the specific location of the man's residence, he turned to the place where the bell rang, while Sano continued his original action.

In another hotel, Sano relied on his passerby's hat and silently stared at the target who was still asleep.

The man seemed to feel a little restless because of the sound of the bell, but because he didn't know the meaning of the bell, he didn't act rashly.

The reason why Sano did not act rashly was simply because he did not find any trace of Hamada in this hotel.

There is more than half of the tea left on the table and it is still steaming. There is a high probability that this man has not gone out before. So, he did not turn over the lighthouse in Hamada?

Having said that, whether Hamada is just not at the lighthouse or missing is another matter.

Sano frowned lightly, finally stopped watching, and was ready to take action directly, tying up this guy first.

The hammer shot out of the air, and before the man had time to react, he was knocked to the ground by the hammer. After being hammered several times, he was knocked unconscious. It seemed that he was guilty of a serious crime.

"Dong dong dong."

Sano's ears moved slightly, sensing someone approaching, and quickly hid behind the door until a figure broke into the room.

It's Belmode.

Sano calmly pushed back the hammer of justice: "Why are you here?"

Belmod was startled by the sudden voice behind him. He couldn't help but complain in his heart about why this newcomer had no sense of existence at all, and at the same time he quickly explained.

"Hamada is dead. He was suspected of being killed by this guy and wanted to frame Kogoro Mori. Now they are bringing people over. We have to hurry..."

Before Belmode finished speaking, the same footsteps from before sounded again.

It seems that it has arrived.

Sano looked at the unconscious man on the ground and felt a headache for a moment. When he was looking for Hamada before, he was too slow to start, but now he is too quick to find this guy. What the hell...

"I have no choice but to disguise myself and fool this guy."

Under Sano's somewhat surprised gaze, Belmod directly tore off his face, revealing the beautiful face of a foreign woman, and then took out another face and put it on, which looked exactly like the man on the ground.

It's too late to change other aspects, so I can only show up like this, hoping to fool him.

Belmod glared at Sano: "What are you doing? Why don't you take him and hide him!"

Sano didn't waste any time, just grabbed the man beside him and hid him in the closet nearby.

In the gap, Sano watched the situation outside. The old man who was responsible for picking up Mouri Kogoro walked into the room and came alone.

"Talk to me Uehara."

Uehara was probably the name of the man who was knocked unconscious by Sano.

The Uehara pretended by Belmode had a calm expression: "Do you have a problem with me?"

"Stop pretending, Uehara. I already know that you are here for the gold."

The old man breathed out: "Hamada, no, that guy Aoki has confessed everything to me before. He was greedy and threw the captain and you into the sea for gold. I think you must hate him very much.

."

This old man is actually an insider?

Is Hamada’s real surname Aoki? And this Uehara, it turned out that he was thrown off the Shenlong...

Sano and Bermod were surprised at the same time, but Bermod had to continue to pretend, showing a slightly angry look: "What does this have to do with you."

"Aoki was killed!"

The old man shouted coldly: "The only suspect now is you. The police and villagers are waiting outside to arrest you. It was hard for me to convince them to let me come in to negotiate with you first. Once you are arrested, don't say...

That gold, whether you will be arrested and imprisoned for murder is another matter!"

If it was the real Uehara, he would probably have been bluffed by the old man by now, but not Belmode. After being silent for a few seconds, she asked.

"Why are you helping me?"

"Is now the time to talk about this? People from outside can break in at any time!"

The old man stretched out his big hand: "You still have a gun on you. Put it here with me first, and then quickly go to the back of the navy cave to wait for me. Otherwise, if you are caught with a gun on you, you really won't be able to tell.

Already."

gun?

Hiding in the closet, Sano touched Uehara's body and actually touched a gun, but...

Why does this old man feel like he's trying to cheat?

Of course, Sano was not the only one who had this idea. Bellmode also had the same idea. She glanced at the gap in the closet with her peripheral vision. When she saw Sano's eyes rising and falling, she understood that the other person was nodding, so she put on her clothes.

He took out the gun and gave it to the old man.

"Okay, let's go quickly!"

The old man took the gun, and Belmode could only choose to believe Sano, turned around and climbed out of the window to go to the Navy Cave.

After Belmode left, the old man also sat down, put the gun against his arm, banged it, and put the gun into his arms with a cold sweat on his face.

As soon as the gunshots were fired, people outside immediately broke in, including Conan, Mouri Kogoro and others.

"The guy shot me once and ran away."

The old man said so.

"Damn it, are you planning to abscond in fear of crime? Don't be stunned and chase him quickly!"

The group of people ran out in a panic again. Although the old man's arm seemed to be just a scratch, he was still sent to the hospital.

When the hotel became empty, the closet door was immediately opened, Sano got out, and Uehara, who was also unconscious, was dragged out.

A few seconds later, a figure came in through the window again. Although the face was changed to another uncle's face, judging from the clothes, it was indeed the Belmod who left before.

Does this guy actually know how to disguise himself? No wonder his reaction was so small when he saw himself switching vests at first, and he didn't ask further.

Sano looked at Belmod, his thoughts were flowing, but he was also a little speechless.

Didn't Kudo Yukiko say that there is no one in the world who can slap people with this kind of disguise technique so much? Then why did she meet three of them in such a short period of time?

Isn’t this just a bad street skill?

"Senior actually prepared Uehara's human skin mask in advance. Could it be that he also prepared mine?"

Faced with Sano's teasing, Bellmode chuckled: "After all, your face is fake, what else should I use it for?"

This time, Belmod spoke in a female voice, and Sano was certain that the face of the foreign woman he saw before was most likely Belmod's real face.

Of course, it is also possible that Belmode did it deliberately to confuse Sano's vision.

"It's really surprising. I didn't expect that senior is actually a great beauty."

Sano pretended to tease again, while Belmod raised his hand with charming eyes and touched Sano's neck: "What, are you feeling excited?"

"Tsk, senior, don't you think it would be disgusting to say such words and do such actions with a man's face?"

Belmod's hand froze.

nausea?

I have always been praised by others, but I was called disgusting by others??

Belmode was about to get angry, but in the next second, a scene of his current face matching his own voice, and then performing such an action appeared in his mind.

...it seems a little disgusting.

Belmode shuddered, retracted his hand as if nothing had happened, and his voice turned into a man's voice again: "What should we do next?"

"What else can be done?"

Sano looked down at Uehara with cold eyes: "Of course, I will reveal everything that the insiders know."

Then... Belmode, who was forced to work as a porter, had no choice but to carry Uehara to the Navy Cave.

After putting down Uehara, Bermod looked at Sano with resentful eyes: "I said, don't you have any gentlemanly manners? How can you let a woman do such a thing, not to mention that I am your senior?"

Sano Yuya pushed away the altar leisurely: "Is there nothing I can do? I'm so delicate and frail that I can't carry him."

Belmode couldn't help but twitch when he remembered the scene just now where Sano was panting from exhaustion after carrying Uehara for only ten meters, and he almost didn't get discovered by the villagers who were searching.

"I'm not talking about you. You are a cadre after all, and you are not a scientific researcher. Why are your physical strength so poor?"

In fact, Belmode suspected that Sano's performance just now was purely fake.

After all, people who know how to disguise themselves are not bad at acting, so it is not impossible for the other party to deliberately act exhausted in order to offload the hard work to him.

To put it bluntly, I just want to paddle and be lazy!

As for Belmode's suspicion, Sano just shrugged: "There's nothing you can do about it, it's natural."
