"Give it back to me! Give it back to me! That's the treasure we found!"
Genta's eyes widened, and he glared angrily at the three men in black who had suddenly appeared. He charged straight at the leader of the men in black, grabbing him tightly and refusing to let go.
"This kid, how can he be so strong!"
The leader of the men in black tried to break free, but it was useless. He simply raised his fist and savagely punched Genta. After a few punches, Genta's face was bruised and swollen.
"Genta!"
At this moment, Conan also realized that something was wrong. When he saw the three men in black walk out, he instantly understood the so-called treasure and the true identities of these people.
"Don't move! All of you stand still!"
The dark muzzles of guns pointed at Conan and the others, who could only surrender obediently and were tied up securely.
"Are you okay, Genta?" Ayumi looked worriedly at Genta, who had several large bumps on his head.
"Mm... I'm fine," Genta replied through gritted teeth.
"Damn it!"
Watching the three men in black rummaging around for something, Conan observed their every move, his mind racing, desperately trying to think of a way to escape: "Fortunately, they don't know the exact location of the maple leaf gold coins yet..."
"No, boss, searching blindly like this is too time-consuming!"
After a long fruitless search, one of the blonde men in black finally couldn't suppress his anxious emotions and questioned their boss.
The black-haired boss with a mustache pondered for a moment, then, holding a firearm, walked directly to where Conan and the others were.
"Hey, you little rascals listen up. If you don't want to suffer, you'd better tell me the whereabouts of the maple leaf gold coins. Otherwise... hehe, I'll throw you down!" The mustached man threatened fiercely, taking a few steps forward, ready to pick a target to pressure.
After his gaze swept over Genta, the mustached man unhesitatingly abandoned that option and instead fixed his eyes on Mitsuhiko.
"Mommy! Daddy! Mommy! We're going to die!" Hearing the mustached man's threat, Ayumi and the other two children immediately burst into tears.
Looking at the scene before him, Conan couldn't help but scold, "Damn it! Do you only bully children? How shameless!"
Facing Conan's rebuke, the mustached man not only showed no guilt or intention to restrain himself, but instead let out a burst of wild laughter: "Hahaha, this is called the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Now I'm giving you a chance to think clearly, who is willing to be the first one to be thrown downstairs?" He finished with a playful smile.
"Damn it! Damn it! What should I do? I must think of a solution quickly!" Looking at the mustached man gradually approaching, Conan frantically pondered a countermeasure.
"Oh? So you think you're the clever oriole, but have you ever considered that the hunter's gun is already aimed at you?"
These sudden words exploded like thunder, astonishing the mustached man and the other two.
"Who? Who's speaking?" They looked around in horror, trying to find the source of the voice. However, no matter how hard they strained their eyes, they still couldn't find anyone.
The tied-up individuals also looked puzzled, all turning their gaze to the three people who inexplicably claimed to have heard a voice.
And at this moment, Hanyu Nan was quietly standing beside the three men, calmly applying the air gun liquid.
In fact, he had been here for some time. After activating the Snake Talisman, he had been quietly standing behind these three guys, watching the show for a while.
"Alright, your time is up," Hanyu Nan whispered softly.
"Who is it, come out!"
Only hearing voices but seeing no one, fear spread among the three men, who finally couldn't help but shoot wildly in all directions.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Hanyu Nan aimed at the three men, counted to three in his heart, and fired three air gun shots.
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"
Under the astonished gazes of Conan and San Xiao Zhi, the three men in black, as if struck violently by a high-speed car, flew into the air, directly broke through the fragile wooden attic, and then fell heavily.
"What happened!"
Upon seeing this, Conan immediately stood up and rushed to the scene without hesitation, eager to find out what bizarre situation had just occurred.
"Damn it, what on earth is going on? How could this happen?"
While everyone's attention was completely focused downstairs, Hanyu Nan looked up, his gaze falling on the maple leaf gold coins above the ceiling.
Looking at the glittering maple leaf gold coins, Hanyu Nan thought to himself, "Hmm, they're quite pretty. Although they don't have much practical use if I take them back, giving them to Haibara Ai to play with would be a good choice. After all, girls like shiny things like this."
Thinking of this, Hanyu Nan proceeded to select 8888 maple leaf gold coins from the total of 15,000.
"Hmm, he's not greedy, he'll leave a little something for the 'Death-Seeking Squad' as a reward for a hard day's work..." "Ayumi, Conan, are you here?" Conan, who was by the window opening, meticulously searching for clues with a grim expression, suddenly heard Hanyu Nan's call.
"It's Yuusheng, we're saved!" Ayumi exclaimed excitedly.
Hanyu Nan came to the three tied-up individuals, and while untying them, he asked, feigning ignorance, "So you ran into robbers from Italy, where are they now?"
Ayumi and the other two, having narrowly escaped death, clung to Hanyu Nan and cried loudly, while Conan stared at Hanyu Nan with a suspicious expression.
"Yuusheng, how did you know we were here?" Conan questioned.
Noticing Conan's suspicious gaze, Hanyu Nan smiled slightly and explained, "Haha, I guessed this address, so of course I knew. I just finished eating and dropped by to see if you had found the treasure."
After hearing Hanyu Nan's explanation, Conan's previously tense expression gradually relaxed, thinking that it might indeed be true, as he was the first to guess this location.
"So, you just said those three robbers fell from upstairs for no reason?" Hanyu Nan continued to press.
"Yes, Yuusheng, they were shouting about some sound, but we didn't hear anything or see anyone," Ayumi said, pulling on Hanyu Nan's sleeve with a look of lingering fear.
"In that case, we can only call the police first."
"Ah! What about our treasure?" Genta said, unwilling to give up.
"Genta, those are stolen goods."
"Alright, I was just saying."
...Beep ~ Beep ~ Beep ~
After calling the police, soon, a dozen police cars arrived downstairs.
The Italian authorities were very concerned about this robbery and offered a very high reward to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
The one leading the team this time was none other than Inspector Megure, who, upon seeing the group, walked over with a look of surprise.
"Yuusheng, it's actually you. What happened here?"
After understanding the situation from the children and Hanyu Nan, the police also found the three deceased individuals downstairs.
With Conan's help, the police also found the maple leaf gold coins, but the number didn't match. After confirming that no one had hidden any, they could only report the truth.
"Damn it, what on earth did they hear, and what attacked them!"
Conan had already run to the side of the three men in black's bodies downstairs, and strangely, all the police officers seemed to ignore him.
Conan stared at the gruesome wounds on the deceased's chests, as if they had been violently struck by a huge iron hammer, his mind a blank.
He was clearly at the crime scene at the time, yet he hadn't noticed any clues. This feeling of being completely clueless was something he had never experienced before.
