Chapter 43 Can you call the juvenile detective team for nothing?
In the children's book and newspaper library, Conan was lying on the table bored.
Without the fun of investigating, Conan now only looks forward to getting home in time and enjoying the hot meals cooked by Xiaolan.
As for what Qin Zhibo wants to do by himself, Conan can probably guess it.
In response to the increasing crime rate in the past year, Mihua City Hall recently established a Good Citizen Award.
As long as you provide criminal clues to the police or catch the murderer directly, you will receive corresponding rewards from the city hall.
So Conan guessed that Qin Zhibo wanted to earn the bounty himself.
Naturally, Conan, who was born into a wealthy class, had no idea about the bounty, and he was not worried at all about what might happen to Qin Zhibo when he captured Director Jinchuan.
After all, Qin Zhibo has mysterious kung fu, and Conan knows this.
Compared to Conan, who has lost his glory, the other three little ones don't care much about whether there are cases to investigate.
Staying in the library after dark, this kind of excitement and excitement is enough for three primary school students.
Moreover, while staying in the library at this time, the three little ones can still do something that they absolutely cannot do during the day.
With the concerted efforts of the three little ones, half of the books on the bookshelf were emptied and then neatly stacked on the ground.
When the heights of these stacks of books are all uneven, in a dim environment they look like a common building in a tokusatsu drama.
So Genta pretended to be Gomera, a crazy monster, and wreaked havoc in these "buildings".
"Ouch! Ouch!"
Genta opened his teeth and kicked down the pile of books he had just stacked. At this moment, Mitsuhiko suddenly jumped out and pointed at Genta seriously.
"Your behavior is unjust, I must stop you!"
"Masked Superman Thunder God Fist!"
Judging from the lines, Mitsuhiko is playing Masked Superman.
At this time, Ayumi walked between the two of them.
"Please, stop fighting!"
"Gomera, can you restore calm?"
"I am Emera, please!"
Judging from the lines, Ayumi plays the little elf Emera who can comfort Gomera every time she goes berserk.
The three little ones were playing games without paying any attention to the occasion, which made Conan, who just wanted to calm down and fish for a while, lose his composure.
Gomera, Emera and Masked Superman are not in the same system at all, and they are actually playing house together.
and...
"Can you please keep your voice down?"
Conan suddenly roared out, instantly calming the three little ones.
Two seconds later, Ayumi said weakly: "Conan, you have the loudest voice..."
Conan, who realized that he was a little out of control, coughed lightly, and then said: "The police will be here soon. You have to put all these books back to their original positions before the police come."
"Hai..."
The three little ones responded weakly, and Conan turned his head and continued fishing.
In fact, Conan is not completely fishing, because the direction Conan is facing is the door of the children's book room, so he is kind of watching out.
But just after a moment of silence, three more little voices were heard.
"This book seems to have been kicked to pieces by me..."
"Something fell out inside. Pick it up and take a look."
"What is it? What is it?"
"It seems like flour?"
Conan, who has a word-sensitive mechanism in his brain, immediately realized something was wrong, and quickly ran to the middle of the bookshelf area at the back and snatched the free things from Genta's hand.
This is...
Conan wanted to take the bag of powdery objects to the still bright window to check carefully, but suddenly there was a "snap" sound in the room.
Conan woke up suddenly because there was suddenly light in the room.
Looking back, I saw that it was Ayumi standing on the chair and turning on the light.
"Idiot! Why are you lighting a lamp?"
"Close it quickly!"
Conan quickly ran to the switch, jumped up and turned off the light.
The room returned to darkness, and Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, a stern expression appeared on Conan's face.
Because just now through that moment of light, Conan had already determined the composition of this "flour".
...
In the corridor, Director Jinchuan was secretly wondering.
Director Jinchuan's original plan today was to wait until everyone in the library had left, lock the door on the first floor to prevent Qin Zhibo from escaping and others coming in, and then sneak attack Qin Zhibo to death.
As for the reason for killing Qin Zhibo, it was naturally because Qin Zhibo knew that Tamada Kazuo knew about those foreign books.
Moreover, Qin Zhibo also knew the police chief who came to search today, and he even wore the same clothes.
If Qin Zhibo reacts and provides this clue to the police, then the things he hid here and the body of Tamada Kazuo will be exposed.
So this guy named Qin must die!
But when he locked the door on the first floor, picked up the water pipe and went to the library on the second floor to find Qin Zhibo, Qin was no longer there.
So Jinchuan began a long search.
From the men's room to the women's room, from the library to the warehouse, Jinchuan searched upwards from the first floor, but Qin Zhibo could not be found.
So Jinchuan wondered, where could such a big living person go?
At this moment, Director Jinchuan faintly heard the sounds of children playing.
upstairs!
Jinchuan raised his head suddenly, then quickly ran up the stair railing, the water pipe in his hand slightly hidden by his side.
When Jinchuan ran upstairs, the sound of children's play disappeared very sensibly.
This makes Tsugawa Hideharu, a fifty-seven-year-old comrade who is a Buddhist monk, confused.
I have cleared out everyone in the museum, except for the one named Qin who should not be able to make a child's voice.
Could it be that I stared at the children's books and newspapers area for too long during the day and was brainwashed by the children's voices?
After dealing with Tamada Kazuo the day before yesterday, Tsugawa knew that the police would come to the library to search sooner or later, so he took all the foreign books in the warehouse and put them in the children's books and newspapers area.
After all, children are easier to fool.
But in order to prevent some children with weak hands from opening these foreign books, Jin Chuan spent most of the past two days guarding the children's books and newspapers area in person.
The seven- and eight-year-olds were just messing around, and they knew all the chirping sounds of children, which could annoy even good people, not to mention that Jinchuan was not a good person.
Yes! I was brainwashed by the voices of those dead children!
After confirming this reason in his mind, Jinchuan was ready to leave and continue searching for Qin Zhibo on the floor below.
In Jinchuan's understanding, the only way to leave the library now is to jump out of the window on the first floor, where the probability of finding Qin Zhibo is greatest.
Just when Jinchuan turned around, suddenly, a section of the dark corridor became bright.
Jinchuan's body, which was about to turn around, immediately froze in place, staring coldly at the bright corridor with half of his face sideways.
After waiting for a few seconds, the light suddenly disappeared.
The figure of Director Jinchuan also disappeared from where he was.
