The light in the corridor was dim, and no one noticed that behind the ventilation fence above the two people, a pair of human eyes with deep purple pupils and a pair of snake eyes were quietly staring at the situation.
Chi Feichi was lying in the ventilation duct, looking past the mercenary walking down the stairs. After realizing that there was no one following him, he looked away and looked down at Conan and Kuroba Kaito below.
The two people on the B deck and the air deck lost contact, and the two people in the corridor on the A deck lost contact. The mercenary leader knew that something was wrong without even thinking about it.
The walkie-talkie may fall into the hands of an invisible enemy and it is inconvenient to issue instructions. The best option is to temporarily guard the hostages by yourself, and let a companion who is also in the lounge go out and follow the short-haired female guard outside the door.
The student asked the short-haired waitress to check on the situation, while he and his companion continued to guard the hostages.
After hearing the gunfire, the short-haired waitress also lost contact. Even if the mercenary leader felt that it was not safe to guard the hostages alone, considering that there were hidden accomplices among the hostages, and the unknown threats were the most disturbing,
Therefore, we will continue to send people out to check the situation.
Until the end, it is best not to expose the hidden accomplice, so the only option is to ask the mercenary subordinate who is also guarding the lounge to come over.
At the same time, these people actually included two people who were active outside, Fujioka Takamichi, and the mercenary who went to the infirmary to release Fujioka Takamichi.
On deck A, it has been a while since he knocked out the two hanged mercenaries, then the waitress had an accident, and now. If Fujioka Takamichi was smarter and heard the gunfire, he would
He would go around and have a look with the mercenary who released him. Even if he didn't come forward, he would ask the mercenary to come around and help his fellow mercenaries catch the person who caused the trouble.
In addition, Conan and Kuroba Kaito found that the elevator had been stopped on the first floor, and they would probably go down the stairs and be blocked...
It's just that Fujioka Ryūdō was more vigilant than he thought. He seemed to be determined not to be exposed until the end, and did not follow the mercenary in the stairwell. As a result, Conan and Kuroba Kaito were not able to realize that Fujioka Ryūdō was this.
accomplices of man.
That's right, he just wanted Conan to quickly confirm that Fujioka Ryūmichi was an accomplice of these people.
If there is no confirmation and Fujioka Takamichi has been hiding, he can hit people casually, and Fujioka Takamichi can pretend to be innocent and bite him back.
But it makes sense to think about it. Fujioka Ryūdō, a mastermind behind the scenes, infiltrated among the guests. In the original plot, he wanted to give up the mercenary group. This person is a bitch to begin with. Before he was sure of the situation on deck A, he would definitely not put himself in danger.
, I'm probably hiding in a certain room now, ready to see what's going on.
This time, he used Conan and Kuroba Kaito as bait, which was a bit unkind, but he was also sure that the mercenaries surrounding and arresting people would not kill people immediately.
In an orderly criminal operation, whether or not to kill anyone, and whoever to kill, requires the permission of the commander, so as to avoid chaos and some trouble afterwards.
Just like in the operation of Gin Team, Chianti had to wait for Gin's instructions no matter how anxious he was.
If the action members kill people when they want, then such a team cannot be considered an elite team at all. It also proves that the commander cannot control the internal members. Sooner or later, they will perish due to operational errors or selfish motives.
The quality of this mercenary group is not low. After the two men below captured Conan and Kuroba Kaito, as long as Conan and Kuroba Kaito did not do anything to threaten their lives, these two people would not shoot and kill rashly.
, they will only escort the two of them back to the lounge, report the situation to the mercenary leader, and then the mercenary leader will decide whether to kill or keep them.
Below, the gun-wielding mercenaries who came down the stairs approached Conan and Kuroba Kaito step by step, and said coldly, "Throw your weapons over here! Don't move, or I will shoot you into sieves!"
Conan threw the coat he was holding in his arms over, and the blades and daggers inside clattered to the floor.
The mercenary outside the stairs heard the voice of his companions and realized that the man was under control. He stepped forward to check on the two hanged accomplices and the waitress in the corner, and reminded loudly, "Hey, CatB, the weapons on them are all gone."
It’s gone, and Miss Tomoko’s pistol is not there either!”
Conan frowned slightly.
Miss Tomoko...
Is it the short-haired waitress?
From this point of view, Chi Feichi did not mess around, and the waitress he knocked down was his accomplice.
The mercenary who was threatening with a gun stared at the two people in front of him, one large and one small, "Where's the gun?"
"Gun..." Kuroba Kaito wanted to say that they had never taken a gun at all, but now he and Conan were in trouble, and they could no longer betray Chi Feichi. He recalled that the elevator number he had just seen seemed to show the fifth floor.
"You said those things were too much to take, so I threw them into the elevator and let the elevator run to the fifth floor and stop."
It's a gamble. In order to prevent any change, the other party will not lower the elevator from the fifth floor to see the situation before solving them, let alone waste time escorting them to the fifth floor to see the elevator.
Moreover, it was very likely that Fei Chi went up to the fifth floor in the elevator. There were so many weapons that Fei Chi could not carry alone, and they might have been thrown into the elevator. Even if the other party lowered the elevator to confirm, they would still see the weapons.
In short, if you can delay it, delay it for a while. Only when you have time can you seize the opportunity to escape.
Conan stared at the mercenaries' fully armed uniforms and frowned.
Trouble 1: They can't beat each other, and the other side has dangerous weapons like machine guns.
Trouble 2: The opponent's body and neck are protected, so his anesthesia needle may not be able to penetrate.
Trouble three: The other party has been wearing a gas mask, and Kidd's sleeping gas has no effect.
His foot-strength-enhancing shoes and football can be used, and he might be able to knock the opponent down, but there is a guy outside the stairs. If he knocks this person down rashly, the guy outside will shoot at them. He and the Kaitou Kid will
In such a narrow stairwell, it is easy to be hit by bullets.
In short, if the other party has no intention of killing them for the time being, then they can't act recklessly. Let's wait and see the timing. It would be best if we can knock them both unconscious at once. If not...
Use football to create chaos, and he and Kaitou Kidd run away!
"You'd better stop playing tricks!"
Two mercenaries surrounded them and searched them, but found no other weapons.
Kuroba Kaito hid the sleeping gas, playing card pistol, and hook and rope very well. Although he raised his hand obediently, when he raised his hand, he secretly used the thread between his fingers to constantly shift the position of the things.
The two mercenaries had no success and looked at them suspiciously.
One of them looked at Kuroba Kaito's white cloak, "Where's your hang glider?"
"Uh..." Kuroba Kaito raised his hands above his head, his tone relaxed but with a hint of helplessness, "I just used it. If you don't prepare a new skeleton after using that thing once, you can't use it again.
.”
Conan broke into a cold sweat for a certain monster thief.
Is Kaitou Kidd's glider a disposable item? Isn't this just making up nonsense because others don't know much about it?
What if the other party discovers from some of the live broadcasts of Kidd's theft that Kidd can continuously use gliders?
However, Kidd hid his things very well, and not a single item of the props he carried was found.
Fortunately, the two people's walkie-talkies soon heard voices, "CatB, CatF, how is the situation?"
"We've captured people, it's Kaitou Kidd and that kid with the eyes. They're back again. Let's take them there right now!"
After one person grabbed the walkie-talkie and answered, he had no intention of searching further. He pointed a light gun at Conan and Kuroba Kaito and said with a bad attitude, "Come forward and go to the lounge! We will keep an eye on you from behind. If you
If you mess around, I will shoot you immediately!"
…
lounge.
Suzuki Jirokichi, Suzuki Sonoko, Mao Lilan, Nakamori Ginzo, and the three children were forced to stand in the center of the room together with the crew of the flying ship, the police, and the bodyguards.
Only Mouri Kogoro was still slumped at the table, snoring in his sleep.
The mercenary leader held a machine gun and stared at a group of people with vigilance. Even when speaking on the intercom, he only temporarily freed his left hand. His right hand still held the gun tightly, and his eyes were still staring straight at the group of people.
After discovering that only the mercenary leader was guarding him, policemen such as Mao Lilan and Nakamori Ginsan were paying attention to the mercenary leader intentionally or unintentionally, but they never found an opportunity to take action.
The other party is always vigilant and keeps a certain distance from them. Once they are unable to control the other party immediately and the other party is angry and shoots, not only will they die, but the lives of everyone in the house, old and young, will be in danger.
After Lupine was comforted by Suzuki Jirokichi, he lay obediently at Suzuki Jirokichi's feet. After hearing footsteps outside the door, he hummed twice and stood up.
Suzuki Jirokichi glanced nervously at the mercenary leader and found that the other party didn't pay attention to Lupine's actions, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
For these people, killing someone may not be a big deal, let alone killing a dog.
He didn't want his Lupine to be killed by these people.
"Conan?"
Ayumi looked worriedly at the door.
Conan walked through the door with his hands raised, followed by a certain phantom thief in white, and then two mercenaries with guns.
"Kid, Lord Kidd?" Suzuki Sonoko suddenly felt a little sad when she saw Kaitou Kidd entering the door at gunpoint.
The Conan kid was thrown out of the flying ship before and was saved by Kidd-sama. Kidd-sama was so handsome at that time, but now the two of them came back and were caught. The idol fell into this situation.
She also felt sad in her heart.
"Quiet!" the mercenary leader scolded fiercely. He noticed that his companions who had walked through the door turned to help stare at a group of people, and quickly walked towards a certain white-clothed monster thief and a kid with eyes, "You two guys..."
"Bang! Bang!"
Amidst the muffled sound, the two mercenary men, who were facing away from the door and staring at the hostages, flew to both sides.
A figure stood behind Conan and Kuroba Kaito, kicked out one leg from the side, and hit the mercenary leader firmly in the face.
The mercenary leader's eyes widened, and he smashed his head and body against the table where Mouri Kogoro was sleeping.
"Bang! Bang!"
The mercenary men flew towards both sides, one hit the wall and the other hit the table.
The mercenary leader was much miserable. When he flew towards Mouri Kogoro uncontrollably, Moori Kogoro, who seemed to be sleeping soundly, suddenly jumped up and at the same time kicked him away from his original position.
trajectory.
"Wow..."
After the mercenary leader smashed three chairs and a table, he lay on his back and tried to sit up, while his right hand fumbled for the gun pressed against his body again.
"Boom!"
A bullet grazed the mercenary leader's right shoulder, leaving a fresh bullet hole on the carpet with a wisp of black smoke.
The mercenary leader struggled to support his body. When he saw Chi Feichi, who had a cold expression and pointed a gun at him, he was frightened and let out a strong breath. He threw his head back and completely fainted on the ground.
