As Conan said the Riddle Answer and spun the Clock hands, the Clock hanging on the Dining Room Wall loosened and fell onto the Ground with a 'thud', chipping off the Paint and revealing Gold on the Edge.
Conan jumped down from the Desktop and bent down to pick up the Clock on the Ground. "Gold was revealed under the Paint. Judging by the Weight of this Clock, it should be made of Pure Gold."
Qian Jian Jiang Dai's Expression was Complex. "I Unexpectedly lost My Father's life for sothing like this. The Truth is truly Cruel..."
Outside the Door, Chi Feichei Suddenly recalled a Sentence.
"Ti is money..."
"Hmm?" Saguru Hakuba heard the low murmur Beside him and Looked Towards Chi Feichei in Doubt.
"Nothing," Chi Feichei said softly. "Making a Clock out of Gold, the Intention is probably this, which is to remind Descendants to cherish Ti."
Saguru Hakuba Nodded and replied in a low voice, "It indeed has aning, But As For Ms. Qian Jian's Father, it was truly Unjust for him to lose his life for this..."
"Alright, you Said it Before," Conan asked in the Dining Room, "Ms. Qian Jian, you Said that As Long As soone solved the Riddle, you would tell them the thod to leave here. Can you tell now?"
"That was a lie I told you from the Initially," Qian Jian Jiang Dai confessed. "I Already intended to end my life here, But Da Shang seed to believe my Statent that I would tell him the Escape Route Afterwards."
"I knew it!" Mao Mu Yao Shi pushed open the Door. "Sister Qian Jian."
"This Is my most expensive Suit," 'Mori Kogoro' Looked at the Blood Stain on his Suit, his Face full of Headache. "How are you going to compensate ?"
"I've wanted to Say this for a long Ti," Saguru Hakuba used a Handkerchief to Erase the bright red from the Corner of his Mouth. "This kind of trick to deceive Children has no aning at all."
"Oh dear," Qiang Tian Yu i revealed rcilessly, "But I See you were having a lot of fun playing it."
Saguru Hakuba choked. "Anyway, drawing out Ms. Qian Jian, who was hiding, counts as Success, right?"
Qian Jian Jiang Dai Turned Around, looking at the Group of People who had Feigned Death in surprise. "You..."
"It was Mr. Mogi who Said to draw you out," Qiang Tian Yu i directly sold him out. "As For having the Younger Brother be the one to draw you out, that was Mr. Chi's Proposal, and the Suggestion for us to Feign Death was proposed by the Younger Brother..."
"Then... when did you Notice that the Murderer was ?" Qian Jian Jiang Dai asked.
"When you chose to take the Ten Yen Coin that was furthest from you," Mao Mu Yao Shi heard the Sound of the Helicopter. "The Ti is just right. Sister Qian Jian has been drawn out, and the Helicopter Mr. Chi called has also arrived. It Seems we can go back early, take a Hot Bath, and get a good night's sleep."
"Helicopter?" Qian Jian Jiang Dai Looked at Chi Feichei in surprise. "When did you Contact the Outside World..."
"Brother Hichiji raises two Crows, and they followed us the whole way," Saguru Hakuba Said. "When you went to See the Suspension Bridge, he had one of them take a Paper Strip with the Events written on it to the Police Departnt at the Foot of the Mountain. After the Police See it, they Should imdiately send soone to Confirm the Situation of the Suspension Bridge and arrange a Police Helicopter for Rescue."
"And that Coin you Threw in the Grass," Qiang Tian Yu i added. "Although it only has your Fingerprint and that Younger Brother's, it doesn't Indicate Anything."
Conan frowned, listening to the rumbling Sound Outside. No, besides the Sound of the Helicopter, there Seemingly was another Sound.
...
Half an Hour Afterwards, the Day just broke Dawn.
The Police Helicopter carried A Group of People into the Air.
"Sister Qian Jian, wasn't it that Old Man Da Shang who wanted to use Psychological Tactics to force us?" Mao Mu Yao Shi asked in Doubt. "Why did you still Feign Death After he died?"
"Because I wanted to Know that Riddle Answer no matter what, otherwise I wouldn't be able to rest in peace," Qian Jian Jiang Dai Looked Outside the window at the Sky slowly illuminated by the Dawn, and murmured softly, "Now it Seems, the one possessed by Karasuma Renya is actually , the daughter of his Enmity..."
In the Rear Seat, 'Mori Kogoro' had a Look of Sigh. Suddenly, he felt a Hand on his Shoulder. He Turned Head in Doubt, Looking Towards Chi Feichei sitting on his right.
Chi Feichei tilted his Head slightly, Looking Towards the side of the Cabin. His scattered Bangs cast a Shadow near his Eyes. "Cypress Wood burning has a Cypress Scent, Machilus Nanmu burning has a Fresh Scent, Birch Wood burning has a nthol Scent, Star Anise Tree burning has an Anise Scent, Agarwood burning has an Agarwood Scent, Sandalwood burning has a Sandalwood Scent. They are all Good Wood. Which kind do you like?"
Kuroba Kaito thought of the Words Chi Feichei had Said Before, like 'Seize Kid and Judge him', and then heard this pile of Wood. He Imdiately Understood, stiffening in his Seat, sweating profusely.
On the Seat Beside Chi Feichei, Conan was sideways, his Watch-Type Anesthetic Needle already aid at Kuroba Kaito, a Malice Smile on his Face. "I Think Machilus Nanmu is Good!"
"Star Anise Tree is Better," Saguru Hakuba sat on Kuroba Kaito's Left Hand side, Pointing at his Chin, Intentionally putting on a serious Analysis Expression. "As Long As it's cooked thoroughly, the Spices can be flavored."
"Oh, By the Way, I Almost forgot, there's one more Person, Mr. Mori, you Seemingly haven't Smoked since you entered the Annex..." Mao Mu Yao Shi in the Front Turned Head, sizing up Kuroba Kaito's Disguise Mask, Smilingly Said, "But it Seems a Bit Cruel to Judge you as a Heretic right After escaping the Predicant together. How about this... I'll vote for Star Anise Tree!"
Behind him, Qiang Tian Yu i watched Kuroba Kaito's Back with a playful Smile. "I prefer the Scent of Agarwood burning."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
Now he was surrounded by Detectives in the Front, Rear, Left, and Right. In the Helicopter, the Venue was narrow, and there were few People. It was Impossible to Manufacture Chaos. How could he Run Away?
Moreover, being aid at by an Anesthetic Needle and having Brother Hichiji's Hand on his Shoulder, Brother Hichiji Probably wouldn't let him off too Obviously. How else could he Run Away?
Qian Jian Jiang Dai sighed in her Heart. While the others were Unaware, she pulled open the Helicopter Cabin Door and jumped out.
The others heard the Sound of the Sliding Door and Imdiately Turned Around to Look. Upon Seeing Qian Jian Jiang Dai jump out, their Faces changed drastically in unison.
"Sister Qian Jian!" Mao Mu Yao Shi wanted to Step Forward But it was Already too late.
"Get out of the way!" Kuroba Kaito Imdiately slipped out from under Chi Feichei's Hand, rushed out of the Cabin, and jumped off the Helicopter. As he fell Beside Qian Jian Jiang Dai, he Reached Out and Caught Qian Jian Jiang Dai, deploying his Hang Glider. His Disguise was also 'puff' blown off behind him by the strong Wind.
On the Helicopter, Conan, who had rushed to the Cabin Door Edge, breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his Watch-Type Anesthetic Needle. "This Fellow..."
Now the Hang Glider relied on Kid's control. If he shot an Anesthetic Needle, those two People would fall Downwards, and both would die... Never Mind, let this Fellow go this once.
"It Seems he Ran Away Again this Ti." Saguru Hakuba Smiled. Seeing Chi Feichei also follow to the Side, his Heart broke out in a sweat.
Uh-huh, Brother Hichiji Should Don't Know Kid's Identity, and he Seemingly has so Tangle with him. Soone Probably wouldn't dare to Say it... No, not only wouldn't dare to Say it, but also had to be Careful to hide his Identity well.
Having such an Older Brother is truly Too Miserable.
...
In the Air, After the Hang Glider stabilized, Kuroba Kaito breathed a sigh of relief. He Lowered his Head to Look at Qian Jian Jiang Dai whom he had Caught. "You weren't Intentionally Helping , were you?"
Qian Jian Jiang Dai's Expression was as usual, still speaking slowly and calmly, "I used your Na to set up the Invitation for them. I had to find a thod to Apology to you. If I didn't do this, you wouldn't have been able to escape at all, right..."
Kuroba Kaito's Corner of Mouth lifted in a Smile. "Then thank you very much. This Is a sufficient Apology."
Qian Jian Jiang Dai Looked Towards the three People Beside the Helicopter Cabin Door above. "Just who are they?"
"I Should Say they are the ones I least want to See..." Kuroba Kaito, who had transford into Kaito Kid, said slowly with Grace and a Smile, "My Lovers!"
"Then you have to be Careful. These Lovers of yours are very Dangerous, especially Mr. Chi," Qian Jian Jiang Dai Sigh. "Before the Helicopter even landed, that Younger Brother had Already aid an Anesthetic Needle at you once, But Mr. Chi stopped him and Looked at the Helicopter. I guessed that they would Take Action against you on the Helicopter... Do you really not have any Deep Enmity with him?"
Brother Hichiji, that Scher!
The Smile on Kuroba Kaito's Face stiffened a Bit. A string of words flashed quickly through his mind:
Severing ties, falling apart, turning against each other, brothers fighting within the Wall, internal strife, kin killing kin...
Uh, these Ideas are a Bit Dangerous.
"But he's truly a terrifying Person, isn't he? He was also the first to see through my thod and solve the Riddle, right?" Qian Jian Jiang Dai Sigh, and then asked, "Are you here for the Treasure? Isn't it a Pity to leave like this?"
"Hmm... Originally, that was the case, But I Think I'll just Forget it," Kuroba Kaito Lowered his Head and Looked at the Location of the Twilight Mansion. He tied Qian Jian Jiang Dai to the Rope hanging from the Helicopter, let go of his Hands, controlled the Hang Glider to fly into the distance, and waved at Qian Jian Jiang Dai. "My little thief's Nest can't fit those Things, and those Things can't be used to pave the Floor of the Great Thief's Ho... It's Better to go steal that Chi Feichei Fellow's Treasure!"
Still saying there's no Enmity? He's Already eyeing other People's Things...
Qian Jian Jiang Dai was Speechless. She Looked Towards the Location of the Twilight Mansion and was Instantly stunned.
Amidst the rumbling Sound, the Wall Paint of the Twilight Mansion gradually peeled off, revealing the Golden Wall Body Below.
Under the Early Morning Sunshine, it reflected dazzling Golden Light, illuminating even the Surrounding Area Sky and Trees with brilliance.
On the Helicopter, Mao Mu Yao Shi was surprised. "After the Wall Paint peeled off, the Inside was Actually all Gold!"
"That Clock was Probably a Fuse that caused the Wall to collapse..." Saguru Hakuba Sigh.
"The Twilight Mansion truly lives up to its Na," Qiang Tian Yu i also lay on her Seat and Looked Down. "This Ti it's not just a few hundred billion anymore."
Saguru Hakuba couldn't help but Look Towards Chi Feichei Beside him and Smiled, "It's all luxurious Gold. There's nothing more Baroque Style than this, right?"
Chi Feichei Nodded, feeling a Bit heavy-hearted.
A few Hours Before, he had voluntarily given up at least a hundred billion.
Although Da Shang Zhushan had the Idea of getting rich overnight, Even If he offered a High Price, he might not have been able to buy the Twilight Mansion. The Higher the Price he offered, the more it would prove that the Twilight Mansion had hidden imnse Wealth and that he Definitely Know Sothing. At that Ti, not only would he not get any Benefit, but he would also attract a lot of Troubleso...
"Conan..."
"Hmm?" Conan Looked Up at Chi Feichei in Doubt.
"Don't you Think sothing is missing?" Chi Feichei asked.
Conan Pondered, "Is there?"
Chi Feichei Turned Around and returned to his own Seat. "Where did I Throw my Teacher?"
Mouri Ran didn't co. He was worried that if he didn't Help remind them, his Teacher might not even be rembered by anyone until they returned to Tokyo...
This...
Conan sweated. He had completely forgotten about the Uncle. "He Should... be at the Gas Station..."
