Chapter 167 Ou Huang let me go QAQ

After finishing the meal and packing the lunch box, Shiraishi put down the letter and said that he already had an idea, but if he wanted to successfully find the treasure, he might have to wait until night.

Facing two curious faces, he memorized the principles and starting methods of the cuckoo clock with a calm expression.

Mao Lilan was not surprised that he could solve the puzzle. After all, she was also at the scene when "Sleeping Baishi" solved the case several times before, and she always had full confidence in Baishi's mind.

After listening, Mao Lilan also became curious about the mechanism. She walked into the studio on the side of the living room and looked up at the cuckoo clock that had only spit out ugly goblins before: "Can I take a look too?"

Shiraishi thought for a moment and made up an excuse: "Since she invited you to solve the puzzle, she probably won't mind you activating the mechanism. And as expected, this mechanism can be activated repeatedly and will not affect her research on the house."

"That's great!" Although she experienced a small incident, Mao Lilan was in a good mood to see so many exquisite clocks and mysterious mechanisms.

Thinking of waiting until night, she decided to find something to do.

Mao Lilan returned to the living room, looked around, and soon found an old deck of playing cards in front of the TV.

In fact, Shiraishi, who was bored and wanted to find someone to play cards with, put it there. Even if the Maori didn't notice, he would make this suggestion himself after a while.

Mao Lilan did not disappoint him. She looked at her watch and said, "There are still about four or five hours until dark. Why don't we play poker and have fun? Time will fly by."

Shiraishi nodded reservedly in agreement.

Mouri Kogoro looked a little reluctant, but soon he was pushed to the dining table by his gentle and slender daughter, and he had to pick up the cards with a grimace.

Shiraishi pulled out the chair next to him and sat down.

Now, his life safety can be guaranteed through money, and the money problem has been basically solved after embracing the winery.

There is no need to worry about life. Although I still have to live in obscurity, I can occasionally enrich my spare time life.

How can I say that he committed a crime under the nose of the protagonist group?

Quite addictive.

This time, we just need to try to clarify the relationship between the body and the mask.

As for whether the two vests could be regarded as the same person... Shiraishi felt that after Conan secretly conducted several inspections, the protagonist had probably denied this possibility.

Shiraishi looked at his watch and briefly thought about the order of actions for the evening.

When night falls, after taking out the gem, Conan will almost wake up.

Before that, we had to go to the attic to refill the anesthesia needles for the two gangsters, and then put Nakamura Sada into the attic together - the rescue skills of the protagonists were all full, so Shiraishi didn't have to work hard anymore.

Thinking about how to send her to the hospital.

After Conan wakes up, he will definitely ask to check the attic first.

Shiraishi had already put the two pistols back beside the gangster. Of course, to be on the safe side, he damaged the guns.

——A few days ago, after completing the task of Agasa Villa, Shiraishi drew a "Broken Crowbar".

This small stick is defined as "a carving tool that fails to inherit the spirit of craftsmanship." It has no other use. Its only effect is to repair whatever is damaged.

Although it sounds useless at first, sometimes it can be surprisingly useful.

In short, after the protagonists see Nakamura Sadao and the gunman, no matter how curious they are about the person who brought them down, they will definitely call the police and ambulance first.

The two gangsters may not reveal their identity as big thieves. Even if they tell the police about the gang of thieves and the treasure hidden in the villa due to the "confess as soon as they are exposed" mode of action in this world, due to the anesthesia effect, at least time has passed.

Twelve hours.

Although Nakamura Sada looks miserable, it won't take long for her to regain consciousness after receiving timely and effective rescue.

During this time gap, you can show her the watch.

Anyway, the mission only requires taking a look. After the mission is completed, even if the watch is taken away again, it is none of his business.

Shiraishi was distracted while playing cards and lost several hands without paying attention.

After thinking about things, he came back to his senses, began to concentrate, and then...

Lost several more rounds.

"..."

Something seems not right?

Taking a secret look at Mouri Kogoro, who was also losing all the time and looking disheveled, Shiraishi suddenly realized that he had overlooked a very important point.

——Mao Lilan, she is a peerless European emperor!

"Oh, I can't post it anymore."

After another round, Mao Lilan held the punishment sticker and circled around Mao Li Kogoro. She really didn't know where to stick it, so she could only press it on the back of her father's head.

Shiraishi has been posted less often than Mouri Kogoro, but the hand holding the cards is also trembling slightly with regret.

After pretending to sleep for a while, Shiraishi finally managed to hold on until dark. He breathed a sigh of relief, found a flashlight, walked outside the door with Mouri Kogoro, and asked him to point the light at a hidden mechanism on the door.

Then Shiraishi returned to the house and turned off the light.

The flashlight light was quickly condensed into a line by the mechanism, then reflected back and forth by the mirrors fixed inside and outside the house, and finally accurately injected into the cuckoo clock on the wall of the studio.

The clock that had spewed out the terrifying goblin before with strange sounds of "squeak--" and "squeak--" finally became normal this time and made a harmless "cuckoo" sound.

A plump and lovely pigeon statue poked out from the small door on the clock, with a watch slung across its body like a bright ribbon.

There are countless jewels inlaid on the dial and bracelet. Although I don’t know how to appreciate them and can’t guess the value, they are indeed beautiful.

Shiraishi took it off with a handkerchief and handed it to Mao Lilan who was standing aside: "Here, your commission will be considered completed."

Mao Lilan was obviously very curious about the watch, but after hesitating for a moment, she waved her hand: "It is not appropriate for outsiders to keep such a valuable thing. You know Miss Nakamura's parents, so you should keep it."

If he forced it on her, she probably wouldn't dare to accept it. Baishi took back his hand and returned to the table with the watch.

Mouri Kogoro heard them walking back to the living room, put away the flashlight and walked through the door, turning on the light at the same time: "Success?"

Shiraishi nodded and pointed to the watch on the dining table. Mouri Kogoro rushed towards it curiously. He was not as reserved as his daughter, so he got closer and took a closer look.

After admiring it for a while, the interest of Maori and his daughter finally faded away.

Mao Lilan picked up poker again. It was rare that someone was willing to play cards with her today. She had a great time.

Baishi looked at her hand holding the card, his heart skipped a beat, he secretly hid his hand under the table, took out the elf ball, then he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes uneasily.

Mao Lilan was shuffling the cards when she suddenly felt something black moving under her feet.

Startled, she quickly retracted her legs, bent down and looked under the table, and saw a black cat jumping onto the white stone stool, picking up an object in its mouth, and ran away.

"...Ah, wait!" Although he likes cats very much, it seems to have kidnapped something from Shiraishi. Mao Lilan quickly stood up and wanted to stop her, but because she didn't dare to use too much force, the cat feinted her.

She stumbled slightly and supported the back of a Shiraishi chair. The stool was shaken by her tug, and the person sitting on the chair slipped to one side.

Seeing that Bai Shi was about to fall to the ground, Mao Lilan could only stop and hold him up.

When I looked up again, the cat had already disappeared.

Mao Lilan sighed and had to give up.

The thing just now was blocked by the cat's body, and Mao Lilan couldn't see what it looked like, but fortunately, judging from its approximate size, it didn't look like a wallet or a mobile phone.
