1391Okiya Subaru, do you want to be my little brother
There was a wooden coffin in the center of the hall with a huge lock hanging on it, and some burning candles were placed in the lampstands on both sides.
There is only one flashlight for lighting, which is really shabby.
Jiang Xia took out the lighter and lit the candles on both sides.
The dim candlelight danced, and the passage and wooden coffin were dyed with a faint layer of dim yellow. The environment suddenly became very atmospheric. Jiang Xia nodded with satisfaction.
The warm light dispelled the darkness, and Kasaka Natsumi finally came to her senses. She carefully stepped up the steps and came to the wooden coffin. As if she had guessed something, her heartbeat became violent.
"This lock is really big." The "White Bird Police Department" weighed the lock and looked at the keyhole. He felt a little nervous and instinctively wanted to challenge it.
But before he took out the lock-picking tool, Jiang Xia turned to look at Kasaka Natsumi: "You took it out with the blueprint before. There seems to be a key?"
"Ah, yes!" Kasaka Natsumi came back to her senses, hurriedly opened the bag and took out a huge key.
Kidd: "..."
...Forget it, it will be the same if I try again later.
He stepped aside as if nothing had happened, holding a flashlight to help Kasaka Natsumi, looking like a normal good policeman.
Natsumi Kasaka held up the lock, put in the key and turned it. With a click, the lock was opened.
She herself was a little surprised: "It's actually the key to this place."
"Would you like to open the coffin and take a look?"
Although opening the coffin without authorization seems rude to the deceased. But now they have no idea what is inside, maybe it is just an empty coffin.
Kasaka Natsumi then nodded: "Sorry to trouble you."
Jiang Xia was the closest. He walked over and looked at the dusty heavy coffin lid. He suddenly missed the vodka in the distance.
Jiang Xia: "..." It's good to have a younger brother, who can come in handy in times like this... It's a pity that Matsuda Jinpei already has the identity of "Usa", which is fine for taking the blame, but it's hard to bring him out in normal times.
Being a coffin-opening coolie. It would be nice if there was one more "assistant" on the surface.
Although he had borrowed Vodka as an assistant, this guy's identity was obviously shady. He could only cheat and squeeze out ice cream occasionally, and it was impossible to form a team on a daily basis.
As he thought about it, a face suddenly appeared in Jiang Xia's mind: squinted eyes, light hair, and something that overlapped with Vodka's professional field - Subaru Okiya, an all-purpose graduate student whose event physique is gradually awakening.
Jiang Xia: "..." It's a pity that this person is already on the line with Akai Shuichi.
But then I thought about it, there is no such thing as first-come, first-served. And doesn’t Shuichi Akai already have a loyal FBI agent? This graduate student shouldn’t be of much use to him...
While he was secretly distracted, he worked with the people next to him to lift the coffin lid and push it aside.
The flashlight shone in and revealed a skeleton lying quietly in the coffin.
The skeleton is wearing rotten clothes. After a hundred years, the people and the cloth are as old as a handful of soil. Only the position on the skull's chest is dazzling - there is a red Easter egg with a shell inlaid with gems, and the Suzuki family
The shape of the egg is very similar.
"Memory Egg! Another memory egg on the drawing!"
The ambassador was excited, and then he remembered something. He looked at the corpse and asked Natsumi Kasaka: "Is this your great-grandfather?"
Natsumi Kasaka shook her head: "It should be my great-grandmother - in the family cemetery in Yokosuka, there is only the remains of my great-grandfather. Perhaps because my great-grandmother was a foreigner, she was not buried in the family cemetery. I also doubted my great-grandmother.
Where has his body gone? I didn’t expect..." It has been hidden under the castle.
She stretched out her hand and carefully picked up the "Egg of Memory" on the corpse's chest.
The egg shell is dotted with rose-shaped gems and inlaid with golden branches, which is extremely gorgeous.
But the moment she picked it up, Natsumi Kasaka was slightly startled - compared with the simple "Egg of Memory" from the Suzuki family, although this Easter egg was larger, it seemed to be much lighter.
Jiang Xia took the egg in her hand, opened the upper half, and looked inside.
The art dealer and the ambassador also came over and looked inside excitedly.
Then he was stunned for a moment.
——There is nothing inside the easter egg.
This egg, carefully hidden in the underground coffin, turned out to be just an empty eggshell.
"Inside the other memory egg is a golden statue of the emperor's family. How could this one be so empty? Could it be that in order to build the castle, that egg was sold for the gems on its shell, and this one sold the golden statue inside?
?" The art dealer slapped his thigh sadly, "I might as well sell the whole one! At least then both of them are complete, and I can..."
Jiang Xia was so upset by his quarrel that he stepped back and interrupted tactfully: "There are two eggs, one big and one small. The big one has grooves at the bottom. Maybe there is nothing in it, and it was designed to look like Russia.
In the form of a matryoshka doll.”
"Matryoshka dolls?" The art dealer was a little far away from his childhood. It took him a few seconds to remember, "The kind of wooden dolls that after opening, there are smaller toys inside, and they are nested one by one?"
Jiang Xia nodded.
The ambassador also understood. He pointed to the bottom of the eggshell: "So the groove here is not because the original thing was taken away, but it was pre-carved to put another egg?... What a pity.
, that egg is not there, otherwise we can still combine it and see what effect it has."
Next to him, the "White Bird Police Department" heard this sentence and suddenly smiled.
"I had long thought that something like this might happen, so..." He reached into his bag and took out an egg naturally. "I asked Chairman Suzuki to borrow it."
Jiang Xia turned to look at him, thought for a while, and showed a little doubt.
Almost at the same time, Conan's eyes also fell on the "White Bird Police Department": "..." I have expected this kind of thing for a long time... How can the White Bird Police Department be so far-sighted?
Either the police department just wants to play with the "Egg of Memory", or...
Conan suddenly remembered the missing Kidd.
——If Kidd was really plotted by "Scott Soldier" the night before yesterday and fell from the sky, then he would certainly not have been defeated in such a dejected manner.
Perhaps at this time, mixed in the crowd was not only the unknown "Shi Kaobing", but also Kidd, who was good at disguise.
Thinking of this, Conan subconsciously raised his head and looked at Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia was also looking at the "White Bird Police Department" meaningfully, as if he had doubts about him.
This made Conan more confident in his judgment. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel itchy, wanting Jiang Xia to grab the face of the "White Bird Police Department" to see if there was a layer of disguise on it - of course, in fact, he was more
I wanted to uncover the mystery myself, but unfortunately there was a height difference and I couldn't reach the face of "White Bird Police Department".
