Conan Rick's Investigator

Behind the two guards, Qin Zhibo quietly stuck half of his head out to observe.

The two guards were sitting very close to each other. If one of them was attacked, the other would definitely notice it immediately. It was not realistic to deal with both of them at the same time. Conan was not tall enough to hit them with a club.

Moreover, the red alarm is right on the table. If it is not handled properly, it will be troublesome if the alarm is triggered.

In that case...

Qin Zhibo shrank back and turned to look at Conan.

Now I'm too close to the guards, even if my voice is very soft, it's possible that they will hear me.

So, Qin Zhibo stared at Conan's pupils, made various gestures with his hands, and used his skill - telepathy.

This is another special skill besides "particleization" picked up from the corpse of the Kunyang people. The Kunyang people usually do not speak, but communicate through their minds.

Qin Zhibo had not received any special training in this skill, so the meaning he conveyed could only be sporadic.

"My... slipped over..."

"Your...here...attracts..."

"You... understand?"

Conan widened his eyes slightly and looked at Qin Zhibo's messy sign language. He couldn't help but feel shocked and moved.

Have we evolved this kind of tacit understanding?

Can you vaguely guess what the other person is thinking just by looking at the strange sign language?

Although Conan has a tacit understanding and bond with his good friend Hattori Heiji, this tacit understanding is only based on a few simple and easy-to-understand keywords.

For example: Isn’t it strange…

you understood?

I don’t understand?

I understand!

I understand too!

For more complicated communication, the two still need to open their mouths to communicate.

But when discussing the battle plan with Qin Zhibo, he didn't even need to open his mouth.

Conan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and sent a look back.

I understand!

Qin Zhibo also understood that Conan understood what he meant, so he crouched down and sneaked over first.

The guard's desk was a circular control panel. Qin Zhibo squatted behind the panel, hiding in the blind spot.

Seeing Qin Zhibo in position, Conan released a football with his football belt and gently threw it to the ground in front of him.

bang, bang, bang...

The sound of the football falling to the ground attracted the two guards to turn their heads and look behind them.

"Where's the football?"

"I don't know... I'll go over and take a look."

A guard picked up the spear beside him, walked out of the circular center console, passed by Qin Zhibo from the camera's perspective, walked to the football and picked it up.

At this time, the guards who had not left also stood up and watched the situation.

"Strange……"

When the guard picked up the football, the air in it had almost been deflated, thus ruling out the possibility that it was a football bomb.

"Hey, is there anyone else?" asked the guard in the rear.

"No..." The guard who was exploring the way was about to answer subconsciously, but when he turned around, he saw a student with a strange smile on his face and colorful shoes on his feet kicking another football around the corner.

Bang!

The guard caught the ball on his face, rolled his eyes, and fainted on the ground.

The guard standing in the center console saw his companion fall to the ground, his face changed, and he turned around to press the alarm, but saw a tall mixed-race man standing behind him.

"You... poof!"

Before the guard could finish his first word, he was punched in the stomach and fell unconscious to the ground.

After dealing with the two guards, Qin Zhibo quickly took out a rope from the backpack behind him, deftly took off the uniform of one of the guards, put it on himself, then tied them together and stuffed rags in their mouths.

With this layer of clothing, it is more convenient to move around in the palace.

As for Conan, there was no way the guards had clothes in his size.

But while Qin Zhibo was doing this, Conan was not idle either. He climbed onto the chair very tacitly and operated the surveillance screen on the center console.

Using these monitors, Conan quickly discovered the imprisoned people.

"I seem to have seen these people at a banquet in Japan before..."

Qin Zhibo also came over and saw two men in black suits being imprisoned together, and two sisters in maid outfits in the cell next door.

Uh, the number of these rebels is a bit small...

Qin Zhibo originally thought that there were many rebels and rescuing them would be a great force, but now it seems that there are only two people who can be considered combat-ready.

Mi-go controls the important figure "Queen". As long as the conspiracy is not exposed in public, the guards outside will still listen to the Queen.

At this time, Conan called up other surveillance footage and pointed at one of them and said, "This person also looks familiar..."

Qin Zhibo took a look and saw three men locked in a cell in the surveillance video, wearing one red, one white and one black.

The man in red lying on the bench is Lupin the Third, who is easier to recognize.

I don’t know who the other man in a suit and a hat is, and who the other man in a Japanese-style kimono is, but since they are locked up together and don’t fight, I guess they are in the same group.

"Is there anyone else?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Conan operated the keyboard skillfully with his hands. No one knew how he knew the operating system of this place, but he just knew it.

“…There shouldn’t be any more…”

Conan did not hide the regret in his eyes at all because he did not find Ran Mouri.

Although the rescue team had a division of labor before the operation, it was based on the intelligence they had previously obtained, such as the Maori family being imprisoned in the royal palace.

But the Maori family may have escaped once and been transferred to an underground prison with stricter security, and were found by Qin Zhibo and Conan's group.

"Forget it..." Qin Zhibo patted Conan's shoulder, "Let's save these people first."

Conan turned his head and nodded firmly.

At this point, I can only believe in "myself" and "Dad" in this world.

……

Vespaña Palace, first floor side gallery.

A gorgeous square floor tile raised a corner slightly. As the angle increased, a pair of eyes emerged from the darkness and observed the surroundings.

"no one……"

After checking the surrounding situation, Kudo Yusaku was the first to get up, then reached out and pulled "Conan" up behind him.

Before taking action, the two had memorized the map of the palace, so they naturally knew where they were. They hurried towards the place where the Maori family had been imprisoned before.

After climbing to the third floor and crossing the corridor bridge in the atrium, the two came to the room where Conan and Mori Goro had escaped before.

At this time, there were two guards standing guard at the door of the room.

It was obvious that Goro Mori and Ran Mori were still imprisoned inside and had not been transferred elsewhere.

This made Conan look happy, knowing that he would be able to rescue his future wife and future father-in-law soon.

The two exchanged tactics at the corner of the stairs and then began to act.

Conan used the bow voice changer to adjust his voice to that of Duke Gerard and made some noises at the corner of the corridor.

"Cough cough..."

"Hey, come and help me..."

Just as the guard was about to raise his spear, he heard the voice of Duke Girard and quickly ran over.

However, Kudo Yusaku had already come up the stairs on the other side from the second floor and appeared behind the two guards.

"Don't move."

The two guards were so frightened that their shoulders trembled. Looking back, they saw the black muzzle of a gun pointed at them.

The AUG in Kudo Yusaku's hand was still very intimidating to ordinary people. The guards had no choice but to put down their spears and be knocked unconscious by Kudo Yusaku with the butt of his gun.

Looking at his father's handsome and sharp movements, Conan was a little dazed in surprise.

At this time, Kudo Yusaku had taken the key from the guard's waist and unlocked the door.

Pushing open the door, Kudo Yusaku walked in and stood still. He scanned the room for only 0.5 seconds and immediately realized something was wrong.

"ah!"

Kudo Yusaku turned around and saw Mori Goro hiding behind the door, holding up a metal ornament and about to smash it on Kudo Yusaku's head.

At the critical moment, Conan quickly shouted, "Uncle Maori!"

Goro Mori's face was shocked, and he subconsciously stopped what he was doing. He turned around and saw Conan standing next to him.

"Conan! Why are you back again?"

"I and the old..." Conan almost gave himself away, and quickly changed the subject: "And this gentleman came to save you, uncle."

Goro Mori turned around and looked at the man in work clothes in front of him. He looked familiar at first glance, but he couldn't remember where he was for a moment.

It wasn't until he squinted his eyes and carefully identified it for two seconds that he remembered, "It's you! Kudo Yusaku!"

No matter how much Goro Mori planned, he would never have thought that Yusaku Kudo would come. Yusaku Kudo did not graduate from their Teitan High School, and they had not had many opportunities to meet before.

Unlike Eri Kisaki and Yukiko, these two were the important link maintaining the relationship between the two parents.

"Long time no see, Mori Goro."

Kudo Yusaku smiled and nodded, then asked, "Where is Lan?"

But at this moment, Maori Goro shook his head seriously, "Lan is not here. After the guards took her away, she never came back..."

Hearing this, Conan next to him felt a chill in his heart.

Oops!

It has been 24 hours since Lan was taken away yesterday!

What kind of interrogation takes so long?

Conan gritted his teeth angrily. If he had known that the leader of this country was so shameless, he would have resisted everything!

Kudo Yusaku's face also darkened as he thought about what to do next.

What the few people didn't know was that while Mao Li Ran was being transported yesterday, she was almost rescued by Conan, which also caused a commotion in the palace.

Just when Kudo Yusaku remained silent, Mori Goro seriously expressed his attitude.

"I won't leave until I find Lan!"

Kudo Yusaku glanced at Goro Mori's burning gaze and nodded, indicating his understanding.

And there is no need to ask too much about this, Conan will not give up on Ran Mouri and leave.

"I know... Let me ask about the progress over there first."

Kudo Yusaku took out the walkie-talkie.

……

Vesbania Palace, underground prison.

Qin Zhibo and Conan got the key and were the first to find the location where the "rebels" were imprisoned.

Chis and his crewmate with a crew cut frowned in confusion as they looked at the masked duo in guard uniforms who appeared outside the iron railings.

A second later, Chis was the first to react.

"Are you really going to execute us early? To prevent any further complications..."
