"Okay, now you should be able to tell me what you and the dark-skinned boy from Osaka discovered in that person's home today, right?"
After finalizing the details of the secretive plan for the Didan High School Academy Festival, Haihara Ai sat on the sofa, held up a cup of hot tea, and looked at Conan opposite.
When he mentioned the home in Yuanhuaiyu that he went to today, Conan's first reaction was to grin and asked with some toothache:
"Haiyuan, I want to ask you a question, where does that organization's activity funds come from?"
He was really surprised by Yuanhuaiyu's home.
"Is there anything strange about this?" Haiyuan Ai took a sip of tea, "There are many peripheral members and even cadres with wine names in the organization who are famous figures from all walks of life."
She gave an example casually: "Take Pisco as an example. His superficial identity is Kenzo Masayama, the chairman of an automobile company. His ability to sit in that position must have been inseparable from the support of the organization. The energy of the organization is evident."
"But even for such a big shot who is well-known in Japan's upper class society, our Mr. Yuan just kills him at his word."
Haibara Ai recalled the conversation she overheard in the wine cellar at that time: "And the boss of the organization didn't seem to show any objection to him casually killing members with wine names. Gin also had a faint intention of bowing his head in front of him.
.”
"I understand..." Conan nodded, "It seems that Teacher Yuan's status in that organization is higher than I thought before..."
"It's not just high." Haibara Ai added, "You may not know what Gin's status is in the organization. He is the most loyal subordinate of BOSS, and he is also a cadre with extremely high authority in the organization."
"The people who can make the ruthless Gin take the initiative to make concessions, even if they are not the highest-ranking people in the organization, are probably not far behind."
Conan took a breath of cold air and became even more fearful of Yuanhuaiyu in his heart.
"Then what? You didn't just find out that that person was extremely rich, right?" Hui Yuan Ai frowned.
When Conan heard this, he also said seriously: "Of course it's more than that."
"I had a secret discussion with Hattori while having dinner. We always thought that three pieces of information could be analyzed from the various arrangements in Mr. Minamoto's home."
Hui Yuan Ai put down her tea cup and looked like she was listening attentively.
"First, Teacher Yuan's home is very tidy." Conan said, "From the time I met him, he always gave me the impression of being serious but a little out of tune..."
"But now I suspect that that inconsistency is just his deliberate disguise."
"To be able to keep such a large villa spotless and orderly by one person, his self-discipline and seriousness are definitely beyond our imagination, and he even has a bit of a mysophobia."
"This means that it is extremely difficult for us to find a breakthrough from him. People who have high demands on themselves tend to pay great attention to details."
"In retrospect, was it really a coincidence that we were able to steal those pills from the laboratory? Would such a meticulous person really put that pill in such a conspicuous place?"
When he said this, Hui Yuan Ai was already breaking out in a cold sweat: "You mean, he put this medicine there intentionally?"
"It's possible." Conan nodded solemnly, "I guess because he doesn't know my identity, he might want to test your reaction?"
"...I hope that's the case." Haiyuan Ai took two deep breaths and decided to be careful when studying these pills in the future.
"The second point is that we didn't find anything related to the organization in his home, except for the bottle of medicine."
Conan held his chin with a solemn look on his face: "After that, I quietly asked Mitsuhiko and the others, and they said it seemed like there was a safe in Mr. Yuan's bedroom..."
"safe?"
"Yes. The safe is placed beside the bed. There is probably something extremely important in it. It would be great if we could open the safe and see what's inside..."
Conan shook his head as he said this. He felt that this was basically impossible.
"Almost impossible." Haihara Ai also had no hope at all for this clue.
Let's not talk about whether it is possible for them to go to Yuan Huaiyu's home again. Even if they can go again, it is difficult to secretly crack the password of the safe and check the items inside without Yuan Huaiyu's attention. This series of operations can be said to be extremely difficult.
Ascend to heaven.
They did not believe that Yuanhuaiyu would give them this opportunity, especially when they knew in advance that Huihara Ai was Shirley.
"What about the third point?" Haiyuan Ai picked up the tea cup again.
"As for the third point...it's the four locked rooms on the second floor."
Conan said: "There is nothing much to say about the first study room. It can only mean that he or his elders have people who love collecting. They collected these age-related and meaningful books and materials together. The one Mr. Yuan gave me before
A signed copy of "A Study in Scarlet" must have been one of the collections in his study."
"But if there is a next time, we can look in those books to see if there is any information hidden in them."
[I think it’s more likely that after you get to that study, you’ll cling to the pile of Sherlock Holmes books and read them all day long...] Haibara Ai complained in her heart.
"As for the second laboratory... it stands to reason that if he is a researcher, it is possible for you, Haiyuan, to know him..."
"I have never seen him before." Hui Yuan Ai pursed his lips, "There is also a very important point. You may have been focused on stealing the medicine and did not hear what he said. He said, those
Among the experimental animals, those who can use knives are definitely not cute. Of course, the cute ones are left here for fun."
Hui Yuan Ai closed her eyes and opened them after a long time: "Don't you think he meant something?"
"...You mean, this might be the reason why he didn't reveal your true identity?!" Conan felt a cold breath rushing to his head.
"I can't rule out this possibility." Haiyuan Ai's face was calm, but his voice was trembling. "Go on."
Conan cleared his throat and continued: "And the third gym and the fourth model workshop..."
"It is not difficult to deduce that he must have some training in physical fitness and fighting, and he has quite good attainments. But such a person also likes to do delicate work such as handicrafts..."
There was a strange sense of dissonance lingering in Conan's mind, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't find a very reasonable explanation.
He smiled bitterly and looked at Haihara Ai, who had a serious face: "What I want to know most now is that he still has to take care of his work as a teacher, do experiments, exercise and make models, and even occasionally work part-time as a private detective...
