Chapter 274 Treasure
Then he met Conan.
As soon as he touched him, Kawasho Machi threw himself on him and whimpered, "Conan! This is so scary, there was a strange person chasing me just now!"
"A strange person?" Conan quickly supported him and was about to ask him when he heard his words, and his attention was instantly diverted.
"Yeah, yeah! But as soon as she appeared, she chased me and I didn't even get a clear look at what she looked like." Kawasei Machi nodded repeatedly, hiding behind Conan and following him closely as he continued to move forward.
Conan used a flashlight to look at the secret passage, and glanced sideways at the pink-haired boy, "But how did you find this secret passage?"
"Because the position of the windows is weird. They are so close to the wall, but they are so far away from each other! And the clock on the wall that doesn't move is also weird. I turned the hour hand of the clock and came in."
Zhenzhi revealed the speech he had prepared long ago.
Hearing this, Conan nodded in appreciation.
It is very impressive for such a young child to have such observation ability.
"By the way, Conan, whose body did you see after coming down the stairs?"
Kawasei Machi grabbed Conan's shoulders and asked in a low voice while looking at the dark surroundings.
"Ah, judging from the corpse's foot bones, she probably hasn't walked for a long time. Judging from the gender and age, the most suitable identity of the corpse should be the body of the eldest lady here." Conan explained, his face solemn.
Zhenzhi's eyes widened in surprise, "Huh? Since the eldest wife is dead, who was the person we just saw?"
Conan shook his head, indicating that he didn't know yet.
Just as they were looking for an exit in the secret passage, Professor Agasa and others who had just finished dinner came to look for them.
But after searching the courtyard and the castle, even the burned tower, they could not be found.
As it got darker, a light drizzle fell from the sky. They had no choice but to wait until daybreak and then seek help from the police to enter the forest to search.
Kawasho Machi sat on the stairs and yawned tiredly, "Conan, do you think the person who replaced the first wife is after the treasure in this castle?"
Conan used the flashlight to look at the chess situation he had recorded. He nodded in disbelief when he heard his words. "Indeed, otherwise no one would make themselves look old."
He propped his chin with both hands and yawned again, his eyes half closed. "Oh... I'm really curious, what exactly is that treasure?"
"EGG HEAD."
Conan suddenly read out a few letters, and a confident smile appeared on his handsome and cute little face.
"What? Is this the secret code of the chess representatives?" Zhenzhi suddenly came to his senses, then jumped up and walked to his side to look at the small notebook in his hand.
"Well, what he meant was the intellectuals who only speak nonsense, the one who came up with the code, the master himself." Conan nodded, as if emitting the aura of a detective.
"If we just rotate the portrait of the master in the hall to the right as the black chess piece indicates, we should be able to find where the treasure is!"
Zhenzhi's eyes lit up, and then he grabbed Conan's hand and ran, "Wow! Great! Treasure, treasure! It's okay for us to go and take a look first!"
