Meanwhile, on the other side.

The doctor, Conan and the three kids camped nearby.

Ayumi looked at the sky and sighed:"Well, it's a pity that we didn't find Ai, and it took a long time. It's almost dark now!"

Genta raised his fist:"But the Junior Detective Team can't give up any member! Even if we can't contact her, we can't give up on Huibara!"

Mitsuhiko was still rational,"I couldn't get through to Huibara before. I guess she has something wrong at home. It's normal that she can't be found."

Conan lowered his head and thought.

Huibara's phone has been unreachable for several days, and no one knows what happened, but looking at the situation at Kazama's house, it doesn't seem like anything really happened...

What's going on...

Conan thought of the situation when a group of people arrived at Kazama's house.

He kept ringing the doorbell but there was no movement. The door lock and the plants outside the door were intact, and it didn't look like someone had invaded directly.

He looked around the whole house and there were no signs of climbing, no ropes, no strange footprints or anything like that.

Everything looked normal, but this normality became the biggest abnormality.

Why didn't Huibara answer the phone?

In fact, the reason why Ai didn't answer the phone was because Igarashi's information made her alert for several days. In order to prevent the organization from finding her through some strange means, she really closed herself off for several days. It was not until Kazama Kazama persuaded her to go out that she put her mind at ease.

Ayumi thought for a while,"Then let's take more photos and bring them back! Show them to Ai, so that she can be considered to have been here with us!"

"Uh-huh!"

"good idea!"

"Uh... that……"

As they were talking excitedly, Dr. Agasa seemed to have been reminded and thought of something.

Conan sensed something from the doctor's hesitation and thought of the doctor's usual unreliability.……

"Doctor, did you forget to bring your tent?"

"Oh no!"

"Without the tent, our plan would be completely ruined!"

"Besides, it’s very late now, and I don’t know if I can get back before dark.……"

"I forgot the tent.……"

The doctor was full of guilt, and the children started to quarrel again, becoming more and more disappointed.

It was already disappointing that they arrived at the campsite after dark because they went to look for Ai, and now the doctor forgot the tent!

Do they have to spend the night in the car?……

"Wait, maybe we have another way!"

The few people quieted down, and Dr. Agasa, who was busy comforting them, also looked in the direction Conan was looking.

In the forest, there stood a castle!

…… this is……

"The"old lady" was walking in the secret passage when she suddenly felt as if she had stepped on something. She lowered her head and took a closer look.

Moss?!

She paused, went back to get a flashlight, and walked to this place with light steps.

Under the light of the flashlight, the traces of the two lines of moss on the wall, one high and one low, being damaged were very obvious.

As expected, they are here...

So...

She looked at the direction, went back, took a shortcut from the outside of the tunnel, and soon entered the tunnel again.

Where are you?

Oh, hoho, hoho……

……

The entire tour group finally arrived at the castle gate, and Yuan Tai excitedly jumped directly onto the gate.

"Wow! This castle is so beautiful!"

"Yuanta, be careful!"

"Come down soon!!"

""Hey, who are you?"

A man suddenly came out and saw Yuan Tai lying on the door. He shouted.

Yuan Tai hurriedly came down from the door.

"Ah, I’m a scientist, my name is Dr. Agasa. I’m traveling with a few children, and I accidentally forgot to bring a tent. I wonder if you can let us stay for one night?"

"Scientist, I'm here to stay.……"

Conan looked him up and down for a few seconds and immediately recognized the man's identity - the gardener of this castle.

"Yes! Uncle Gardener, we will definitely be good!"

"Yeah! Ayumi is very well behaved!"

The gardener looked up and down. Yuanta's appearance just now really made it hard to believe that they would be well behaved.

But thinking of the little girl who didn't talk much today and followed her brother closely, he still agreed.

"Okay, come in first, I'll take you to see the young master."

""Thank you, thank you."

Dr. Agasa thanked him hurriedly.

The children did not dare to be naughty anymore, and followed closely, discussing the castle in a low voice.

The beautiful western castle in the mountains, the chessboard-shaped lawn and chess pieces seen on the road, all aroused great curiosity among the children.

Seeing that the children were well behaved, the gardener was relieved and told them the story of the chessboard lawn, the castle treasure and several people in the family.

They listened carefully and soon met the young master Mamiya in the hall.

"A scientist who came to stay……"

After listening to the gardener's account of what happened, Mamiya looked at Dr. Agasa in surprise.

"Welcome, welcome. It's easy to stay. Please clean up a few rooms first, and ask the kitchen to prepare some food."

""Okay, young master."

The gardener replied and left.

Normally, it was not his turn to do these things, but today there were so many guests.

"I see some of you haven't had your meal yet? Please sit down and wait for a while. Dinner will be served soon."

"OK!"

"Thank you, brother!"

The little ones sat down obediently.

Conan, the fake child, became restless.

"

Brother, is there a room here where you can see the entire chessboard?

"Yes, kid, you want……"

"I want to see that chessboard!"

Conan got the answer and jumped off the chair.

For him, knowing an interesting puzzle and staying here waiting for dinner boredly is a waste of time!

"Well... then……"

Mamiya looked at the other children and Dr. Agasa, a little hesitant.

"I want to go with Conan!"

The first person to speak was Ayumi, Conan's little fangirl.

"I'm going too! The detective team must act together!"

"Then I'll go too!"

The remaining two couldn't stay still and jumped off their chairs and spoke.

"Then I'll take you there."

Takato Mamiya smiled. Dr. Agasa naturally followed.

Soon a group of people arrived at the room where they could see the entire chessboard lawn. The room was empty and nothing was decorated. Several real children immediately crowded by the window to look out.

It was dark now, but the whole layout could still be seen with the moonlight that was not too dark.

Conan looked at it for a while and silently memorized the entire chessboard, and then observed the entire room.

He had long felt that something was wrong with this castle. The thickness of the walls and the distribution of the windows all proved that there was a secret passage in this place!

He moved a chair and stood under the clock to turn the hands.

This room was empty, and this clock was the most conspicuous. If there was a secret passage, the hands must be pointing to a certain time...

Ah ah!!

Conan was flipped into the secret passage before he could shout out.

Several children outside laughed and watched the chessboard, while Dr. Agasa and Takato Mamiya chatted on the side. It was not until they calculated that it was almost time to go to dinner that everyone realized……

"Eh? Conan seems to be missing!" Ayumi looked around.

When Genta heard there was food, he didn't think much about it,"Maybe he went to the bathroom, don't worry, let's go eat first, he should be back soon."

Mitsuhiko took a look and didn't care too much,"Yeah, yeah, maybe he just hid and wanted to scare us."

"So that's it……"

Ayumi was still a little worried. She had a vague feeling that something had happened to Conan.

But she didn't say anything else, silently suppressing the feeling of uneasiness.

"" Okay!"

Several people went to eat, and no longer cared about Conan who disappeared.

Conan fell into the secret passage, adjusted to the environment, and turned on the flashlight in his watch.

The moment he turned on the flashlight, he was shocked.
