Chapter 368 The Ancient House (5)

“???”

“???”

This shout made Lu Yuan and Xiaolan both confused. Lu Yuan quickly took out a flashlight and illuminated the thing.

Sure enough, it was a cat, a wild cat, all over. Although it was a wild cat, it was quite chubby. The eyes of the two cats were flashing green in the dark, but at this time they were full of fear. Xiaolan's hand was just holding the cat's neck, making the cat's four legs stretched straight. There were big words in the air, and the cat's tongue was clanging outside, looking like it was scared.

"This..." Xiaolan also saw clearly the cat she was holding in her hand, frowned awkwardly, and was surreptitious, and it was difficult to continue pinching the cat, so she put it on the ground.

"Woooo~" a very aggrieved scream. The cat probably was so scared that his legs were weak. After being put on the ground, he couldn't even leave the road. He could only tremble and shrank in place, looking pitiful.

"So it's a cat." Lu Yuan muttered, thinking: "So, the previous battery was probably the cat that ran away. After all, cats are willing to play with it when they see a little thing."

"I think that's the case." Xiaolan said. Although she was relieved that the green dot was just a cat's eyes, not a god, but in contrast, it was just a cat, so this was too boring to unfold, as if it had no help in the case.

Just then.

"Hey? Wait, what is this?" Lu Yuan suddenly wondered.

Xiaolan was stunned and looked closely. It turned out that there was something tied to one of the cat's back feet. Xiaolan lowered her body and pulled the thing down and found that it turned out to be a small button.

"This is..." Xiaolan's eyes lit up: "This is the button on Conan's clothes!" he shouted.

"What?!" Lu Yuan was also shocked and quickly took the button over.

In fact, there is nothing special about this button, but anyone who has read Conan's comics knows that Conan wears that children's suit almost 70% of the year, and there is only one button in the middle of the suit.

"This is the signal Conan gave us." Lu Yuan came to this conclusion very directly.

Xiaolan was not stupid either. She naturally understood, but asked again: "But...but how can we find him?"

Lu Yuan thought about it: "What can be confirmed for the time being is that this cat has been with Conan and others, and it should not be far from here. There should be no paper, pen and cloth where they are, otherwise they would just tie a small note."

After hearing this, Xiaolan nodded in agreement: "But it's still the same problem, how can we find them?"

Without answering, Lu Yuan put the chubby wild cat on the ground and made a "shhh" ban on Xiaolan. Then, he took Xiaolan to the corner of the central hall.

"What are we doing?" Xiaolan said in confusion.

"Shh~" Lu Yuan signaled her not to speak, and then pointed to the black cat.

At this time, the black cat was still trembling on the ground, not daring to move. After a long time, he barely stood up. The two green eyes kept flashing in the darkness. Then, the cat walked towards one corridor.

I guess he was shocked by Xiaolan's amazing blow. The cat has not recovered yet and is walking tremblingly. Xiaolan and Lu Yuan calculated the distance and followed the cat quietly.

I saw the cat enter the study room at the end of the corridor, which is the room with carpets, bookshelfs, and paintings hanging on the walls.

"There must be a problem there." Although Lu Yuan could not explain the specific reason, at this time, the cat should subconsciously walk to a safer place, so Lu Yuan followed.

After entering the study room, Lu Yuan observed the surroundings again and found that nothing special was the same as when he came before, but the difference was that the cat was gone.

"Huh? Where is Xiao Hei?" Xiaolan couldn't help but frowned.

"Xiao Hei?" Lu Yuan was puzzled.

"Oh, it's the black cat just now."

After hearing Xiaolan's explanation, Lu Yuan didn't know what to say. He thought that you took the cat half of his life just now. Why did he name him in a blink of an eye? Are you such a good relationship?

Lu Yuan must not say this kind of groove. He just responded: "There should be some hiding place here. Cats and other creatures especially like places such as corners and small holes."

As he said that, Lu Yuan was about to search in the study, but he didn't find anything useful.

Just when he felt it was strange, suddenly... he seemed to step on something, and the foreign object under his feet was very obvious.

Lu Yuan lowered his head and found that he was stepping on the edge of the street stall at this time, and there was something obviously under the carpet.

Lu Yuan bent down, lifted up the carpet, and found a small thing underneath...the battery.

It was the battery he took out from the flashlight before.

"Why is this thing here?"

Lu Yuan looked at the battery and for a moment, he seemed to suddenly think of something.

He put down the battery and looked at the surrounding environment. The study was not big, with bookshelf all around it, and there was only a carpet in the middle. From the location, he probably wanted someone to take a look at the paintings on the wall, and placed them there specially.

By chance, Xiaolan had just looked around other places and found that there was nothing special, so she came to the front of the painting and looked at it carefully. She was also stepping on the street stall.

She just looked at it.

Immediately afterwards, she seemed to have discovered something, and walked a few steps towards the painting, while walking, and talking...

"This painting seems a bit crooked." After saying that, she came to the front of the painting, reached out to move the painting and straighten it.

In an instant, Lu Yuan felt his mind being penetrated by a beam of inspiration.

The specific picture is that he felt that he seemed to be in a completely black scene. Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and a light passed through his background board, slanting 45 degrees across his brain.

At this moment, all his doubts were cleared.

Lu Yuan shouted quickly.

"Don't touch that painting."

Then, he still said a step slower, and saw that Xiaolan had already placed her hand on the drawing board, shook it, and then looked at Lu Yuan in confusion.

"What did you say?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a click.

“Ahhhh————”

Xiaolan exclaimed, and then fell to the ground.

And a hole happened to appear under her feet.

The hole should be a loose leaf, covered by a carpet, so it can't be seen. Then, the loose leaf door clicked again and closed.
