When Director Jinchuan turned around with an ugly expression, the elevator had already reached the floor below.
He stared angrily at the changing numbers on the display screen, and rushed towards the stairs, intending to go to the first floor to block people.
When Director Jinchuan competed with the elevator for speed,
In the elevator, Conan praised the children, "Well done!" while pressing the button of the elevator, intending to make it stop midway.
According to Conan's prediction, the curator will definitely go to the first floor to block people.
Even if the curator can't run out of the elevator, if he comes prepared and has already locked the door on the first floor, then they can't escape even if they get down to the first floor.
It is better to go downstairs in the middle and use the complex environment in the library to deal with the librarian.
Conan thought clearly.
However, before he pressed the button, the downward trend of the elevator had slowed down and was about to stop.
Conan’s first reaction was that the students finally got smart and knew they couldn’t go to the first floor without him having to say anything.
But if you look carefully, you can see that the floor button on the inside is not lit up.
Conan's heart skipped a beat.
…This shows that the elevator will stop on the second floor not because they chose the second floor, but because someone outside chose the second floor for them!
Conan pictured the curator's smiling face in his mind, and a cold air rushed up from his back.
He thought his plan was enough to fool the angry Director Jinchuan.
Unexpectedly, the curator actually predicted his prediction, saw through his plan to get off the elevator midway, and waited leisurely here!
Conan's face was livid, and he slapped the door button, trying to prevent the elevator from opening.
However, it was of no use. I could only grit my teeth and watch the elevator stop.
At this time, Conan deeply realized what it means to use a book only when it is used.
——If he had just picked up a large book, he no longer had to face the dilemma of having nothing to kick with but strength-enhancing shoes.
The elevator door finally opened.
Conan squatted down and turned on the switch of his sneakers.
——There is no other way. Since there is nothing to kick, we can only try sliding tackle again.
This time, as long as you pass by Director Jinchuan's crotch and kick his legs with a strength-enhancing shoe, or somewhere else, there may be a chance of survival.
Thinking of this, Conan leaned against the back of the elevator car while the three children looked at them as idiots. Then when the door opened, he kicked off the wall and slid out.
However, before Conan could make a long-planned kick, a swinging stick lightly struck him.
Conan's trajectory suddenly deviated greatly. He slid out and slammed into the wall next to him.
Conan: “……”
……etc.
Why does the stick that poked him look so familiar?
Conan jumped up and was surprised to see Jiang Xia standing at the elevator entrance.
Jiang Xia was carrying an unfolded swing stick and didn't ask Conan why he wanted to appear as a fully automatic mopping machine.
He looked at the three children in the elevator and said succinctly: "Come out."
Mitsuhiko and Genta huddled together. Looking at Conan who was defeated in an instant, they felt that they were no match and walked out tremblingly.
Ayumi is much calmer than the two boys.
She recognized Jiang Xia as the person who rescued her and Conan in the dungeon last time.
This time when he encountered danger, he actually appeared again... Ayumi thought about it, with kilakila stars in her eyes.
Jiang Xia passed by a few naughty kids and entered the elevator.
Then pressed the button on the 1st floor.
The elevator door gradually closed under the blank stares of the children.
Before the door was completely closed, Jiang Xia glanced at them through the crack of the door: "Stay where you are and don't make any sound."
The four children subconsciously stood at attention and nodded in unison.
…
Director Jinchuan carried the metal water pipe and went straight to the first floor with a ferocious expression.
When he arrived at the elevator, he was surprised to find that the elevator was still going from the second floor to the first floor.
He didn't think too deeply about why he could run so fast. He just thought that his extreme anger activated his unlimited potential.
Soon, with a ding, the elevator stopped on the first floor.
Director Jinchuan couldn't wait to reach out and grab the elevator door that had just opened a crack: "Let me see where you are going this time..."
咚——
A slender black shadow crossed the crack of the door and struck the curator accurately on the forehead.
Director Jinchuan was dizzy, and then he was hit hard in the abdomen.
He flew backwards, hit the wall and slipped. In the chaos, the curator saw a person walking down the elevator with a backlight - he was not the weak little kid he thought he was, but looked taller than him.
…When did this person enter the library?!
How much does he know about the drugs and corpses? What does it have to do with those children? Is there still time to silence them?!
Director Jinchuan looked at the approaching Jiang Xia, then at the stick he raised, and panicked: "...What do you want to do?!"
Jiang Xia threw the detective manual at him and said casually: "I'll return the book."
With the sound of book pages flying, the elevator door closed behind Jiang Xia. The light source in the elevator car disappeared, and the surroundings returned to darkness.
Before the last ray of light disappeared, Director Jinchuan saw the "ordinary citizen who came to return the book" swinging the swing stick in his hand and making a whooshing sound, and then looked down at him, with a smile on his face that made people laugh behind his back.
Cool smile.
…
Fifteen minutes later, people from the Mumu Police Department arrived and picked up a purple pig head on the second floor...
Ah, no, I picked up a Tsukawa Curator on the second floor.
“…” Officer Sato stretched out his hand and poked Director Tsukawa lightly, and heard a painful cry from the other party.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that she was still alive.
Beside them, three children stood as quiet as chickens with their eyes wandering.
When Jiang Xia moved, they all shivered, huddled together, and looked over warily.
However, Jiang Xia did not go towards them.
He just walked up to Sato and whispered apologetically: "Sorry, he shouted that he wanted to silence several children. It was very dark in the corridor at that time, and he was very familiar with the library. I was afraid that he would escape later.
To hurt the children, I was in a hurry and accidentally struck too hard..."
A word came to the lips of the "several children" at the same time—liar!
Then he swallowed it silently.
I dare not say.
Furthermore, although Jiang Xia was a little cruel, he did save them.
A few children, relying on their simple emotions, felt that they could not do such a thing as stabbing their benefactor in the back.
Sato patted Jiang Xia on the shoulder and encouraged, "You did nothing wrong."
To be honest, after learning what Director Tsukawa did, Sato wanted to praise Jiang Xia for "a good fight."
But unfortunately, as a police officer, I cannot say such things.
So she could only remind her kindly: "However, don't be so impulsive in the future, otherwise you will be in trouble if the prisoner dies."
“Yeah.” Jiang Xia nodded gently, “Be careful next time.”
