While his thoughts were spinning, Ye Geng stepped into the tower.

Hey, this person is too courageous... Conan felt ashamed and followed closely behind.

I have to admit that at that moment just now, he was startled by the sound of the tower door opening.

Step into the building.

The interference of dense fog is eliminated, and the effect of the flashlight rises sharply.

Look around.

The windowless first floor of the tower feels like a storage room for sundries.

A few shelves close to the wall are full of cardboard boxes, and there are many glass shards scattered on the ground near the corner. Because they are too thoroughly broken, it is obviously impossible to restore their original appearance by visual inspection.

Conan twitched his nose and sniffed the air vigorously. It smelled like alcohol and disinfectant.

Sure enough, there is a problem.

And the wooden floor under my feet, why does it feel like new...

He moved the beam of the flashlight around, trying to get a good look at the traces of the tower.

As a result, when his eyes fell on the side of the stairs, he was speechless for a while.

I saw that the young student had already stepped up nearly one-third of the stairs. If he hadn't observed quickly enough, he might not have seen anyone at this moment.

"Brother Yaoyi, wait for me!" Conan trotted to catch up.

"oh…"

Ye Geng responded casually.

Of course he had to wait, otherwise he would have already reached the second floor. The reason why he checked the stairs first was to make sure there were no peeping eyes and possible traps.

However, his attitude was directly misunderstood by Conan.

After a certain detective boy silently complained, "Why do these people like to ignore children so much", he also stepped on this spiral staircase.

From the perspective of the environment, he had no hope of finding the missing master in this place.

But it’s all here, anyway, I have to check it out...

With such a mentality.

Conan also followed Ye Gengyi, stepping up the slightly creaking stairs, step by step.

As might be expected, the tower and the quaint villa have been built for a long time.

Otherwise, the materials could not be wood blocks and stone bricks, but more modern reinforced concrete.

But it is also based on this guess that this building must be maintained regularly, otherwise the wooden steps under the feet would not be so firm.

So, could the door panel with too much contrast be used as an early warning?

Ye Gengyi didn't think too deeply, and mainly focused on dealing with emergencies.

However, unexpectedly, until the two reached the end of the stairs, nothing happened.

"Eh? From here, I can see the front of the villa."

Conan stood in front of the window, giving out hints habitually.

Although Ye Gengyi didn't know what the kid was telling this passer-by to do, he still cast his gaze there.

After a simple investigation, no trigger mechanism was found on the top floor of the tower, but...the generator and signal base station he thought at first were not here either.

strangeness…

Since there is nothing here, what reason did the person I saw before stand here and spy on them?

Ye Gengyi tried to look in a further direction, but soon he came to the conclusion that in the current environment, unless sensors were installed at the corresponding intersections in advance, or other equipment that could provide warning, otherwise, standing No one can be seen here at all.

coincide? Or... the old man at the gas station...

"Ah, Brother Haruka, look, the shape of the top of the tower is different from what we saw outside."

Suddenly, Conan's voice brought him back to his thoughts.

The beam of the flashlight illuminated the top of the building, dispelling the darkness and revealing a rather flat ceiling.

Ye Gengyi visually measured the height of the ceiling based on the position of the window, and instantly concluded that there is a mezzanine above.

But soon his brow frowned.

No, those are rocks.

If you want to lay a mezzanine on the ceiling, you should adopt a light and strong design, and it is not the floor. How can you use rocks that are difficult to splice and fix to bear objects...

If this thing is smashed down, every floor is a tower with wooden beams, it may not be able to withstand it...

squeak—

As soon as he had this idea, the tower door on the first floor made an unpleasant loud noise.

"not good!"

Conan was shocked. Although his defense against the sense of crisis was a few beats slower than Ye Gengyi's, if he couldn't guess that someone wanted to harm them at this moment, his reaction would be too slow.

"Brother Yaoyi, let's go!"

He subconsciously prepared to rush down the stairs, but before he could finish raising his legs, Ye Geng grabbed his arm.

"Don't worry, you may fall into the trap if you go down now."

Ye Gengyi held Conan with one hand, leaned on the window with the other, and never took his eyes off the ceiling... Under his feet, there was still a pillar in the middle of the spiral staircase, but after reaching this floor, it was divided into 6 pieces. , into an umbrella-shaped load-bearing structure.

Just at the moment of crisis, he was ready to leave the window, but the rock did not fall down...

So, if there is a trap, the trigger for it is most likely on the stairs.

Although it is jokingly said that every time Conan is there, there will be a death, but do the people who live here have any brain problems? To actually kill them in such an insidious way without saying a word...

There was a slight coldness in Ye Geng's eyes, and in the black palm that stuck out the window, a mechanical eye that was constantly rotating was looking down.

no one...

Could it be that after closing the tower door, he walked around to another position close to the tower body?

Ye Gengyi lowered his voice and said, "Use a flashlight and look around for any ropes. Remember... don't touch things. I'm here to keep an eye on the stairs."

"Um…"

Conan nodded slightly~lightnovelpub.net~ He has a retractable sling, even if there is no rope on this floor, it is not a problem, but now is not the time to explain the props, after all, even if there is a rope, he still needs to find a fixed point.

Watch as this detective kid leaves with a flashlight.

Ye Gengyi casually threw a 'sub-throwing sensor' towards the direction of the stairs, and at the same time, the silver-white fluid overflowed and condensed in the palm of his hand protruding out of the window, and then mimicked into a half-palm-sized dragonfly, spreading its wings around the tower start flying.

Is it foggy?

then fly closer...

Loud propeller?

Then take the form of an insect...

Ye Gengyi wanted to see who the person who tried to kill him was.
