Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends.

Chapter 1096: Secret Code Trap

"Hmmmm--" Wakasa Rumi gritted her teeth, and using all her strength, slowly pulled up the iron gate.

Yuya and Conan immediately shone their flashlights downwards, so that if there was really someone below, they could blind the other person's eyes.

However, there was no one in the basement. Youye looked around and found that the room had not been searched. Apart from the footprints left by the police when they moved the body, there were no other traces.

Yuya thought for a moment, bent down and went into the basement, came to the marker, opened the lid and looked inside. The money was still there.

It seems that several of the robbers' accomplices had not had time to check the basement.

Wakasa Rumi struggled to hold it up and whispered to the bottom: "Kamiya-san, how are you down there?"

Yuya came out of the basement, brushed off the dust on his clothes, and said, "Everything is still there."

Wakasa Rumi quickly said, "Then should we call the police?"

Yuya waved his hand: "I have already informed Inspector Megure."

Conan said with some concern: "But if the police are dispatched, will it alert the enemy? What if the accomplices see the police coming and hide and don't show up?"

Yuya smiled slightly: "It's okay, you should have noticed, right? There are a lot more kids picking up students from school, they are actually plainclothes."

Conan showed an expression of "as expected", and said that those parents looked familiar.

Wakasa Rumi asked tentatively: "So what should we do next?"

Yuya stroked his chin and thought: "Since the other party did not check the basement, it means that they don't know where the stolen money is hidden. It seems that we need to provide some information."

Wakasa Rumi looked confused: "Provide...information?"

Yuya smiled and said, "Well, Mr. Wakasa, just cooperate with me."

Wakasa Rumi was stunned for a moment, then nodded obediently.

After a period of time.

Yuya and the other two walked out of the old warehouse, and Conan looked a little limping.

Yuya put his hands in his pockets, squinted at Conan, and said in a loud voice: "I told you not to follow me, now you've broken your butt in two, right?"

Conan's eyes flashed with a hint of speechlessness, and he said aggrievedly: "The buttocks are originally two pieces, okay?"

Puff! Wakasa Rumi almost couldn't hold back her laughter, but was glared at by Yuya and Conan. She quickly stopped smiling and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Should we take you to the infirmary?"

"It's okay," Youye waved his hand, "Children have thick skin, it's okay to fall a few times."

Conan suspected that Yu was seeking revenge and was taking advantage of the trap to play a trick on him.

He pulled the corner of his mouth, raised a piece of paper in his hand and said: "Brother Yuye, I just found this thing in the warehouse. Is there any code written on it? Is there a treasure?"

Wakasa Rumi bent down and looked at the note and said, "But these words don't look like they were written long ago. Were they just written?"

Yuya put his hands behind his head and said nonchalantly, "Don't overthink it. There is no treasure. It must be a prank by some kid in school. Throw it away quickly."

Conan lowered his eyes. He suspected that Youya was making a sarcastic remark about him because he was the one who wrote the note.

"That's true," Conan sighed, threw the note to the ground, and shouted in grievance, "I thought I could find treasure and get a lot of money to buy a lot of food."

"Let's go, let's go. Although there is no treasure, Brother Youye can buy you food." Youye took the lead and walked in front.

"Wow, really? That's great!" Conan "happily" chased after him and listed a series of snacks he wanted to eat.

The corner of Youya's mouth twitched slightly. Is this guy addicted to acting?

Wakasa Rumi looked at the backs of the two people with a deep gaze, and a hint of thought flashed in her eyes.

"Wakasa-sensei, what are you doing there? Come on."

"Ah, it's coming."

As the three people left, peace returned to the place.

After a while, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the note bounced a few times on the ground and suddenly flew up.

Just as it was about to fly into the sky in pursuit of freedom, a hand suddenly appeared and grabbed it.

···

Night falls.

As the security guards completed their final check, the school fell into darkness and silence.

Youya poked his head out from behind the old warehouse, looked around and saw no one, so he shrank back.

He looked behind him helplessly: "So, why did you guys follow me here?"

Mitsuhiko put his hands on his hips and said seriously, "When school was over in the evening, we found that there were several police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department among the crowd of people picking up parents, so I suspected that something might have happened in the school."

Genta continued: "So we asked Conan about this."

Yuya squinted at Conan and asked, "Did you tell them?"

Conan turned his head away with a guilty conscience. How could he dare to say that he had accidentally fallen into the trap of the three little brats and accidentally told others about it? He would probably be laughed at by Yuya.

Yuu also figured out that Conan was the traitor - but he also had a different opinion of the three brats, who were able to extract information from Conan.

Yuya lowered his gaze to the back again: "So, why is Wakasa-sensei here too?"

Teacher Wakasa smiled shyly and whispered, "This feels a bit like a courage test. I'm looking forward to it, hehe."

Yuya's mouth twitched slightly. "Aren't you a coward? Why do you say you look forward to it?"

"Don't worry," Shiratori Renzaburo appeared from behind Wakasa Rumi, "If anything happens, as a police officer, I will protect you."

He glanced at Yuya. What's more, with his brother Kamiya around, ordinary prisoners were no match for him.

Wakasa Rumi glanced at Shiratori Renzaburo and replied blankly, "Ah, okay, thank you."

She asked in confusion: "But after all, these are just Kamiya-san's speculations. The Metropolitan Police Department actually sent a police officer? A police inspector at that."

Shiratori Renzaburo's expression froze, and he laughed dryly, "That's right, Brother Kamiya has helped us solve many cases, so we still take his words very seriously. Haha, hahaha..."

Yuya and Conan looked at him with a guilty look and lowered their eyes at the same time - this guy, is he coming for Teacher Kobayashi?

It's just a pity that the Boy Detective Team didn't tell Kobayashi Sumiko about this operation, so she naturally wouldn't show up. I'm sure Shiratori Renzaburo must be very disappointed.

"By the way, Yuya-nii," Ayumi asked, tilting her head, "Conan said those accomplices will show up tonight, why is that?"

Yuya explained, "I wrote on that note, 'It's been 10 years, see you tonight at 10 o'clock, in the basement of the old warehouse'."

Now that you have mastered the solution to the other party's code, you can naturally write down the corresponding code using the same method.

Mitsuhiko suddenly realized: "I see, if they see this, they will definitely think their boss is still alive, right?"

Yuya: "I don't know if he is the boss, but at least he is the one responsible for selling the stolen goods."

"Shh!" Suddenly, Conan made a gesture to keep quiet.
