It happened that the president and secretary were having a quarrel and were taking a break. This noise was so prominent that several people inside and outside the room were startled at the same time.
Kinoshita Yoko was stunned at first, and then her heart began to beat violently. She didn't expect that such an accident would happen the first time she secretly became an outlaw, and she froze in place for a moment.
At this moment, Jiang Xia pushed the towering sculpture next to him and put Conan on the ground with the clatter of the stone sculpture shaking. Then he grabbed Kinoshita Yoko and pulled her into the next room with a swish.
The moment the door closed, from the study next door, Katsuhiko Takei pushed the door open aggressively: "Who is outside!"
In the corridor, Conan, the only one left, had just gotten up from the ground when he met the eyes of a fierce-looking middle-aged man.
Behind him, his two companions had left him and disappeared without knowing when.
Conan: "..." Jiang Xia!! Why don't you run with me!
Katsuhiko Takei's expression was a little scary. Conan panicked for a moment because of his guilty conscience, but he quickly understood Jiang Xia's intention - it was obvious that someone was eavesdropping outside, and the two people in the study would definitely come out to look for it. In order to prevent everyone from being caught,
We can only throw in a child who will not be held accountable to take the blame.
...It just so happened that they would be discovered, and it was also because Conan touched the window. The one who was in the pot was not unjust.
Conan: "..." Fortunately, President Takei and the others will only temporarily control his actions because they are worried that he will leak the information and alert the kidnappers. They will not silence innocent children passing by.
Even if they really want to be destroyed, Jiang Xia is still behind and can catch them on the spot.
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. Conan quickly calmed down, showed an awkward smile, and explained: "I, I have never seen such a beautiful garden and house, and I can't help but want to come over and play... I'm sorry! I'm leaving now.
!”
Before he turned around and ran away, Katsuhiko Takei picked him up with a gloomy look on his face: "Aren't you the kid next to Jiang Xia? Did you hear the conversation we just had?"
Secretary Hanai said anxiously: "Don't tell the police what you heard, and don't tell your detective brother, otherwise Naoko will really be killed!"
Conan was lifted in the air and nodded obediently.
But Katsuhiko Takei was still worried. He threw him to Secretary Hanai: "Lock this kid up first, and don't let him leave until the matter is over!"
Secretary Hanai sighed and took Conan.
Suddenly she became a little suspicious: "How did this child reach the window?"
"!" Yoko Kinoshita was hiding in the next room, leaning against the door and overhearing this sentence. She was so nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Jiang Xia glanced at her and made a silent gesture to remind her.
Kinoshita Yoko came back to her senses, nodded repeatedly, and carefully covered her mouth to avoid making any noise that would alarm people outside: "..." Today's experience was too exciting! The field practice was indeed different from the on-set performance. She felt that she
Her acting career seems to have broadened again. If she plays the role of an unlucky heroine who is chased into a desperate situation by a murderous maniac, or a newbie and stupid thief, she will definitely fit into the script perfectly.
Fortunately, Secretary Hanai's suspicion was not amplified. President Takei quickly gave an explanation. He snorted coldly: "When I went out, the statue was shaking. This kid must have stepped on the statue and climbed up, and then he didn't.
He fell down after standing still... He actually dared to step on my newly bought ornaments. When the matter is over, I must have a good chat with his parents!"
Although he was angry, now was not the time to argue with the child. Katsuhiko Takei left him to Secretary Hanai and returned to the study to continue collecting the ransom money.
Secretary Huajing glanced down at Conan, touched his head, and pulled him to the next room, intending to lock him up here temporarily.
In the next room, two detectives and their accomplices who broke into someone else's house were hiding.
Yoko Kinoshita heard the approaching footsteps and was stunned for a moment. She suddenly lost her mind about the script and blinked at Jiang Xia crazily.
Jiang Xia looked at this celebrity who was not professional at all in breaking the law, sighed, and silently pointed to the door next to the two of them.
The door here opens inward, so Jiang Xia specially led people to hide behind the door. As long as Secretary Huajing doesn't go deeper, it will be difficult to find their presence.
As soon as they finished pointing, the door was pushed open. The door opened to nearly 90 degrees, standing between them and Secretary Huajing.
As expected, Secretary Huajing did not go deep. She pushed Conan gently into the room and whispered: "Sorry, please stay here for a while. I will let you go when the transaction is over tonight. It won't take too long."
Conan looked up at her, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a skirt behind the door.
Only then did he remember that Jiang Xia and Kinoshita Yoko seemed to be hiding in the direction of this room just now.
Secretary Huajing did not leave. She seemed to want to close the door and say something. Conan was startled and hurriedly grabbed her before she closed the door and asked without saying anything: "What did the kidnapper want you to do?"
Secretary Huajing was more patient with children, so he ignored the door and knelt down to answer his question: "Same as last time, use money to redeem people."
As she spoke, her face became gloomy uncontrollably: "It's a pity that for that bastard, only money is the most important thing."
Kinoshita Yoko was startled by her sudden tone. In fact, she was not so startled usually, but this time she really had a guilty conscience. She trembled and hid behind the door with Jiang Xia, looking like everyone in a horror movie.
boss.
Jiang Xia tilted her head to listen to Secretary Hanai's voice, calculated her position, and then her eyes followed the route and landed on Kinoshita Yoko's skirt.
This skirt is relatively fluffy, and is the kind of long skirt with tulle that is popular among young girls recently. It looks great when worn outside, but it is not convenient when hiding from others.
Kinoshita Yoko saw Jiang Xia's gaze and realized the problem belatedly. She quickly pressed down the hem of her skirt and pushed down the corners of her skirt that might be exposed to Secretary Hanai's view.
The skirt made a little scraping sound of fabric.
Jiang Xia: "..."
Secretary Huajing was talking to Conan. Her own voice covered up most of the noise, but she still felt vaguely that something was wrong.
Seeing that she was about to look back, Xiaobai became anxious, and with Jiang Xia's tacit approval, he raised his hand and used the forced confession skill.
Secretary Huajing's heart beat violently, as if an invisible electric current was passing through her.
The next moment, she lowered her head and looked at Conan in front of her, suddenly wanting to hug the child.
Conan was stared at by her with a strange expression, and cold sweat broke out: "?"
Secretary Huajing's eyes became gentle. She shouldn't have mentioned this matter at this time, but for some reason she couldn't control it and blurted out: "I once had a brother who was as old as you. But he died in 4
