"Ah!!!"

A scream appeared. It was Ayumi.

It turned out that Ayumi was also frightened by the statue and sat down on the ground.

"What's wrong, Ayumi?"

Mitsuhiko and Genta heard the voice and ran over from the front. They followed Ayumi's line of sight and started laughing.

""Hahaha! It's just a statue."

Ayumi was stunned for a moment, then she carefully raised her head and took another look, then she breathed a sigh of relief and got up.

"Oh, it's a statue."

"Haha! Ayumi was actually scared by a statue! Hahahaha!"

""Hahaha! Ayumi is so timid!"

Genta and Mitsuhiko laughed even harder when they saw Ayumi like this.

Ayumi stomped her feet in anger and said,"What? Stop laughing at me!"

She ran away from this place, leaving behind the two hateful boys who kept laughing.

It seemed like something was missing?

She realized that Conan hadn't spoken for a long time.

She looked around with a flashlight and found a small figure squatting on the ground not far away, checking something.

"Conan? What did you find?

Ayumi took two steps forward curiously.

"Ah!!!!

Suddenly, a scream that almost pierced the sky came from the house. The empty house kept echoing, making it impossible to determine the direction of the sound.

Conan stood up from the ground and looked around.

""Who is it?"

Ayumi summoned up her courage and shouted loudly, but her voice soon faded away.

"……Is it Mr. Ghost?"

Ayumi said as she got scared, her voice trembling.

Genta and Mitsuhiko were also a little scared when they heard the voice, but when they heard Ayumi's scared voice, they suddenly gained some courage and comforted her loudly.

"Don't be afraid, Ayumi! I will protect you if you encounter a ghost! Ha!"

After saying this, Yuan Tai also made a striking posture, highlighting his unprofessionalism.

However, Mitsuhiko was calmer.

"No, it's definitely not a ghost. It sounds like the voice of an adult man.

Ayumi repeated blankly:"It's not a ghost!"……"

Genta's courage was instantly full,"It's not a ghost, so what's there to be afraid of! No matter what happens, our Junior Detective Team can definitely solve it!" The remaining two little ones were no longer afraid after hearing what Genta said.

Mitsuhiko:"Yes, our Junior Detective Team can solve anything! That big brother screamed so miserably, he must have met some bad guys, let's go help him now!" Ayumi

:"Yes, let's take our weapons and go help that big brother!"

She picked up a wooden stick next to her and held it tightly.

"Take your weapons and help!"

Genta and Mitsuhiko also took up sticks at Ayumi's reminder.

Conan came back to his senses at this time, and seeing the situation of the three little ones, he hurriedly spoke up to stop them.

"Wait! It's not that simple!"

"What's wrong, Conan?"

Ayumi stopped and looked at Conan, but Mitsuhiko and Genta didn't want to wait at all.

"Conan must be scared!"

"That's right! Conan, are you scared? If you are, just wait for us here! We'll go save Big Brother and be back soon!"

"No, it's not." Conan said seriously,"Do you know what I just found out?"

Ayumi asked blankly,"What did you find out?"

"It's a bunch of strange footprints!"

"footprint?"

"Yes, I observed many places, and the dust on the ground was completely inconsistent with the normal state, and there were also messy smaller footprints and traces of wheels!"

"In addition, I mentioned"smaller footprints" before because I also found something else, two sets of men's footprints!"

"Judging from the size and distance between the two sets of footprints, they should be two adult men. They are very new and almost dust-free. They obviously entered the house today. And seeing that they walked in a very chaotic manner, it is obvious that they are not familiar with this house. They must be outsiders!"

Conan used the flashlight to observe for a long time before he came to a rough conclusion. The footprints here are really too messy. If it weren't for the fact that the ground has never been cleaned and has accumulated a layer of dust, it would be impossible to see the footprints.

"There were often people walking around before, and then two men who had just arrived today entered the house... Is there a problem?"

Yuan Tai thought about it, but still didn't understand, and asked curiously

"This is a big question. If these two people came to this house for the first time today, who left the small door on the side through which we just came in?"

"The footprints I mentioned are not the footprints of the owner of the house five years ago. It is impossible to see the footprints of five years ago. The footprints left now are all caused by the movement during this period of time!"

Conan held his glasses with his hand, lowered his head and quietly said his reasoning

"I just checked, the pool in this house can still drain water! The owner of the house died in the house five years ago, and his wife and children moved away. How could anyone still pay the water bill?"

"The door on the side also had many traces of entering and exiting, and judging by how hidden that door was, it was definitely not a door that a normal resident would choose to enter and exit!"

"Conan...you mean……"

Mitsuhiko gradually came back to his senses.

"That's right, I think there is a big secret hidden in this house!"

Conan didn't say what the secret was, because he only had a guess and no evidence. There were too many possibilities.

Whether it was a rich treasure that had not been found, a person who was secretly imprisoned, or a treasure that could not be moved, it could explain the current situation.

""Conan, what should we do now?"

Ayumi gradually regarded Conan as the backbone, or rather, the three children now regarded Conan as the backbone.

"Let's speak quietly and don't make any noise to avoid alarming the people here, and then go look somewhere else!"

""Hmm!"

The three children silently separated and walked different routes to investigate the situation. They bent over and walked carefully without making any sound, just like thieves sneaking in.

Conan silently held his forehead to express his helplessness.

They are indeed children.

Suddenly! His movements paused, and his head turned sharply to the second floor, staring at a room on the second floor.

Wait, what was that light on the second floor just now?!

……

On the other side, Kazama Tsuru and Igarashi Hiro went up to the second floor.

This house is really old, and it creaks when you walk. In the completely dark house, there are only the sounds of footsteps and the creaking of wooden floors, which perfectly sets off the horror atmosphere.

"That... looks like a ghost.……"

In the silent room, there was the sound of creaking footsteps on the floor and the sound of two people's footsteps one after the other.

Feng Jianhe, who was walking behind, suddenly spoke and said something even more terrifying in a faint voice.

"Floating around, without legs……"

Igarashi Yang suddenly paused, then reacted and turned to look at Fengjian He with a helpless look on his face.

"……Don't scare me, how could there be a ghost? I'm not afraid anymore after seeing the statue just now." The voice was obviously a ghost. Can you scare people less seriously?

But to his surprise, Feng Jianhe ignored him and kept his eyes fixed on the room next to him. His body even began to tremble. Igarashi

Yang couldn't see his expression in the dark. He only saw with the residual light from the flashlight that he seemed to be really scared.

Is it really...really a ghost?

Igarashi Yang was startled and turned around to look at the room in the direction of Feng Jianhe's sight.

Through the glass covered with a layer of gray, he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a dark floating ghost shadow by the window.

Igarashi Yang was so scared that his whole body tensed up in an instant. His eyes were fixed on the shadow. His throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't say a word. His heart was blank as if his soul had lost its connection. His face turned pale in an instant, almost as pale as Feng Jianhe's.

Snap!

Something seemed to have suddenly appeared on his shoulder

"Ah... Ah!!!"

He finally managed to squeeze out a few broken sounds, and then, like a flood gate opening, a scream that pierced the roof spread out.

PS: The reasoning about the footprints is actually a bit problematic... Even if the floor is not cleaned, it is impossible to judge that there are two sets of men's footprints if they walk around frequently... But the plot requires it, please let it go TAT
