Detective Conan: I, with my magical powers, am going to destroy the world!

Chi Chufeng curled his lip.

For solving mysteries, of course we need Conan, and it wouldn't be right to leave Ai out, so it wouldn't hurt to bring Ayumi along.

The key question is, what can Genta and Mitsuhiko do?

It's really disruptive, isn't it?

Chapter 591 The Strange Bull's Mansion

Looking at Genta, who was drooling and seemingly lost in thought, Akatsuka Kaze turned his gaze to the forest ahead.

According to the clock, Gozo Iseikawa, known as the "Bull," had a rather poor relationship with his family.

He died without a single family member visiting him until his very last moment; his end was truly tragic and lamentable.

Perhaps that's why the challenges now lie ahead for the successor.

As an outsider, Chi Chufeng couldn't really comment. Money is something you can't take with you when you die, and ultimately it's not as important as the people around you.

"The Angel's Mansion is just ahead."

As the car passed through the tunnel, a cluster of buildings soon appeared before them, scattered across the hillside, giving it a somewhat Greek architectural feel.

In addition, there are four towering pillars in different directions, each with an angel statue on it.

"At the very front are the angels of the south, then the angels of the west, the angels of the east, and then the angels of the north."

The clock stopped the car at the bottom of the slope and explained to everyone.

"They are named as such because they accurately point out the directions of east, west, south, and north. In addition, it is said that the face of each angel here is very similar to that of the master's wife who passed away early in life. The master devoted a lot of energy to recreating his wife's face."

The clock started the car again and headed towards the Angel's Mansion, saying, "Back then, for the young children, their father must have seemed very cold. So, after they grew up, they all left one after another, until only the old man was left."

"Although the children would occasionally come back to visit him, they would usually have a big argument and then leave. No one could truly understand the old man's feelings, which was truly sad..."

"Well."

Chi Chufeng silently looked at the several angel statues.

He could understand the feelings of this wealthy man.

A person who dies alone is no better off than one whose children fight over inheritance and family property in front of them.

"This way, please."

The clock stopped the car and led everyone on a tour of the road.

"The building guarded by the Southern Angels is called the South Wing, which is also where the Master passed away. The West Wing, where the Western Angels reside, was mainly where work was conducted. The North Wing was where the servants and children lived..."

Ai Ai said to Akasa Kaze, "Even though no one lives here, everything is very clean."

Clock laughed and said, "We will never slack off on cleaning and tidying up."

“But look over there,” Ai said, looking east, “why does the East Wing look like a haunted house?”

“This,” the clock looked at Chi Chufeng, “the master instructed that after he passed away, no one should approach that place.”

"why?"

"I'm not entirely sure either. Let's check other places first. The mystery won't be revealed until 9 PM tonight..."

"Uncle Clock," Conan, who had been following behind with his hands in his pockets, suddenly asked, "Is the mystery you mentioned related to time in any way?"

The clock paused for a moment, then chuckled softly without answering.

He turned and continued walking, saying, "I'll take you to see other places."

As evening approached and the sun set, the surrounding light gradually dimmed, and the searchlights around the base of the statue began to operate.

The atmosphere at the Angel's Mansion gradually changed.

The once peaceful angel statue now appears eerie and frightening from below, as if it had transformed into a witch.

"What's going on? How scary!" The children couldn't help but feel frightened.

“This is one of the security systems that the master arranged before his death,” the clock explained. “It will operate automatically when the sun goes down.”

"Mr. Iseikawa has passed away, shall we continue?"

"Yes, as long as the treasure remains in this Angel's Mansion along with the puzzle, not only will I stay here as a security guard."

Clock was still wearing sunglasses, looking all businesslike.

"Therefore, everyone must be extra careful when you move around. Among those who have come to challenge us, there have been cases of people being seriously injured or even going missing. This Angel's Mansion itself is also a huge labyrinth..."

Chi Chufeng looked back at the lights shining back and forth in four directions, his gaze settling on the fifth mansion in the center of the complex: the Manor of the Wild Bull.

880

The Bull's House is connected to houses in four directions.

There is also a long corridor leading to the North Building, which looks like a Greek temple.

In addition, you can see bronze statues of bulls at various intersections, and there is even a minotaur.

This Angel's Mansion is quite strange; it's hard to imagine what would happen if only a child like Matsunaka Yuriko came here.

Chi Chufeng glanced at the clock leading the way and continued to follow into the Manor of the Bull.

From the entrance, you can see a huge bronze bull statue in the center of the hall, which startled Ayumi and the others.

The local landlords made their fortunes in the stock market and were known as "bulls".

The stock market is said to have bull and bear markets, so it's not surprising that stock traders admire bulls.

"Lord Chichu," the clock called out to Chichu Feng, who was inspecting the bronze statue.

"It's almost time. I'll take you to your rooms to rest first. After you finish your meal, it will be time to reveal the mystery. Please head to the North Wing."

"Okay." Chi Chufeng looked away, nodded, and left the Bull's Den with Xiao Ai and the others.

Chapter 592 Why don't you use your brain too?

Because of Ayumi's connections, Akatsuka also has to act as a nanny.

“I know what you’re up to,” he said, glancing at Yuan Tai and the others. “You’re absolutely not allowed to run around later, understand?”

"it is good."

Yuan Tai and the others grinned and obediently responded, while Chi Chufeng curled his lips.

The more readily these guys agree, the more likely problems will arise...

Chi Chufeng emphasized, "I can take you with me, but no one is allowed to act alone."

"What about Conan?"

"Same."

In the North Wing, Aka Chufeng naturally has a private room.

The clock prepared a large room for the children.

The two rows of beds inside are enough for quite a few people to stay in. A group of children didn't have to worry about anything and simply picked out their favorite beds.

After a sumptuous dinner, it was already 9 p.m., and as the clock struck, it reappeared silently before everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen," the clock stopped before the table, "I shall now reveal the riddle... When the horns on the bull's head disappear and its tail becomes its head, an angel will descend from heaven and play a flute; the melody will be the location of my treasure..."

"Is that all?" Yuan Tai stared blankly at the middle-aged man who had stopped.

"Yes," the clock reminded, "you have 24 hours from now until the same time tomorrow. I hope you can solve the puzzle in time."

The clock quickly left the restaurant, leaving everyone pondering the mystery.

"But…" Mitsuhiko asked, perplexed, "which of all those cows here is it referring to?"

"Is there even a question?" Genta said confidently. "It must be that giant earth bull in that Wild Bull Pavilion. Maybe the treasure map is hidden in its horn, right, Brother Chichu?"

Chi Chufeng smiled faintly and looked at the cheerful Yuan Tai.

Even if you're completely clueless about deciphering codes, you know that what Yuan Tai said is utterly unreliable.

“Idiot,” Mitsuhiko said irritably, “if it were that simple, the previous 16 people would have found the treasure long ago.”

“However,” Conan pondered, “although 16 people have challenged it, there was no trace of them when I came over just now. Mr. Clock has obviously cleared away all the clues they left behind.”

"There's no other way; this is the only fair way for all challengers..."

“If that’s the case, those people might have found some clues on the giant bull,” Genta insisted with a snort. “There must be something hidden inside the horns of that giant bull!”

"Yuanta..."

Chi Chufeng stood up and said, "Before we go to sleep, I'll take everyone for another stroll around this Angel's Mansion."

Genta and the others cheered excitedly.

Conan frowned.

When the bull's head and horns disappear, and its tail becomes its head, an angel will descend from heaven and play a flute, the melody of which is the location of my treasure...

We don't know the meaning of the first half yet, but the second half should be related to the four angel statues around us, or perhaps there is some kind of mechanism involved.

Therefore, the first part of the sentence most likely confirms the location of that angel statue...
