Hearing the conversation at the door, Bu Meiyuan and the other two in the villa were instantly overjoyed. Just now, they were talking about finding treasure, but someone really entrusted Brother Ye Ling to search for treasure. Could it be that we were chosen children?
Conan looked as if he had seen a ghost." That's impossible…There's really a treasure?”
Haihara Ai was also stunned." They've already entrusted it to us. It can't be a joke, right…"
Ye Ling invited the square-faced man, who called himself Mamiya Mitsuya, into the villa and let him sit on the sofa. Then, she made him some tea. The children also crowded around Ye Ling and stared at Mr. Man emotionally, making him feel uncomfortable.
"Um, may I ask if these children…"
"Ah, they are my apprentices." "Just pretend they don't exist," Ye Ling replied.”
"Oh." Mr. Man nodded and began to explain the details of the treasure.
It turned out that his father-in-law was a historian. When he died fifteen years ago, he left behind a magnificent castle and told his family,"I want to give the treasure to the person who solved the mystery of the castle." However, after searching for a long time, they could not find any trace of the treasure. These days, Mr. Man happened to see Ye Ling being interviewed on TV, so he thought of asking a detective for help.
The children's eyes lit up when they heard that. The castle and the mystery, they wanted to fly over and find the treasure immediately. Ye Ling raised her eyebrows after hearing that. Why did it feel a little familiar?
Wait, isn't this the case of the Blue Castle?
In Conan's animation, there were some cases that were particularly deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the Blue Castle was one of them. Because in this case, a maid killed an old woman and then made herself look like an old woman and left her in the castle.
It seemed that this commission would be very interesting…
The children all stared at Ye Ling with anticipation. Finally, Ye Ling said,"I'll accept this commission."”
"Oh yeah!" The children cheered excitedly.
Mr. Man was dumbfounded. Why are you guys happier than me?
Ye Ling knew that if she didn't bring these children over, she would never have peace in the future. She smiled and asked,""Mr. Man, can I bring these apprentices with me? Sometimes, they were still very useful.”
"This…I can, but my car can't fit.”Mr. Man was in a difficult position.
"It doesn't matter. I'll just rent a car.”Ye Ling answered.
In the end, the matter was settled. The children could not help but cheer.
Conan couldn't help but wonder," Don't you have a driver's license?”He remembered that Ye Ling had said that she didn't have a driver's license at the magic fan gathering not long ago. Why was she going to rent a car now? Don't tell me you want to drive without a license?
Ye Ling looked down at Conan and smiled.""When I said that I don't have a driver's license, I meant that I don't have a Japanese driver's license. But I have a driver's license from another country. I went to apply for an exemption these few days and directly took out my Japanese driver's license.”
Genta looked puzzled." Externally immune replacement? What's that?"”
Mitsuhiko explained," It's a test for people who already have a foreign driver's license. They can get a driver's license directly after passing it in one go. However, I heard that it's very difficult.”
In fact, Ye Ling did not participate in any exemption. He only obtained all the necessary documents through the form of a fake certificate. However, unlike other people's fake IDs, his fake ID could be found in the file because he directly hacked into the file management center and added a piece of information to himself.
In other words, the name " Ye Ling " had been recognized by the country.
……
The children called their parents one after another, saying that they would be staying at Dr. Ali's house for the night. Meanwhile, Ye Ling went out to rent a car. He didn't know what to choose from the dazzling array of models. After thinking about it, he finally rented a cheap and practical Wuling Hongguang seven-seater van. (Don't ask me why Nippon can rent it, I sold it to him)
However, Dr. Ali seemed to be worried about the children going out with Ye Ling, so he got into the car under the pretext of taking care of the children. Everything was ready. Wuling Hongguang followed Mr. Man's car and left Rice Flower Town.
……
The car sped away from the city and entered a forest. The gravel road in the mountains was a little bumpy. Fortunately, it hadn't rained recently, so the car drove smoothly. The surrounding green trees flashed past the window, and not long after, a castle came into view in the distance.
The castle was countless times taller than the trees in the nearby forest. It occupied a wide area and the tiles were blue, just like the forest castle in a fairy tale. After getting out of the car, Bu Mei couldn't help but look up and exclaim," What a beautiful castle!”
"Treasure, here I come!" Genta and Kazuhiko couldn't hold it in any longer.
Mr. Man hurriedly made a gesture to keep quiet." Shh! " Kid, don't mention the treasure. Mr. Ye Ling, if anyone asks, just say that you are my friend."”
Ye Ling nodded to show that she understood. The children also nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice. This kind of thing really shouldn't be said. After all, the treasure hunt was carried out in secret. If everyone knew, the treasure would definitely be snatched away by others.
Although the people living in the castle were a family, in the face of huge wealth, kinship was very fragile.
Speaking of which…Ye Ling remembered that the treasure did not exist.
……
The group of people followed Mr. Man into the castle. The courtyard was extremely empty, like a playground. The lawn in front of the main body of the castle had been trimmed into a chessboard with stone chess pieces the size of a human being placed on it.
"Wow, what is this horse head?”Genta could not help but be surprised when he saw the huge horse head statue.
"That's a chess piece in chess," Xiao Ai explained."The head of a horse represents a knight.”
"Xiangqi? Could such a huge chess set be used to play?”Bu Mei asked curiously.
"It should be used for viewing." Conan replied.
" It was designed by my father-in-law when he was alive," Mr. Man said." He told others to keep it the same at all times. There might be some secret."”
The children immediately whispered to each other, suspecting that the clue to the treasure was hidden in this chess game.
When the children were observing the chess game, they found a young man with squinty eyes squatting near the chess pieces and studying them carefully. The young man also saw the children. He was stunned at first, then walked over and asked,"Mr. Man, who are these people?”
Ye Ling and the doctor followed their agreement and called themselves Mr. Man's friends. They were here as guests today. After greeting him, the young man went back to study the chess pieces. The doctor asked,"Mr. Man, who was that young man just now?”
"He's called Noble Jian Gong, he's my son.”Mr. Man replied.
Everyone was stunned. Son? Didn't he just call you Mr. Man? Which son would call his father that?
Although they were puzzled, they did not pursue the matter. Instead, they continued to follow Mr. Man silently until they entered the castle hall. However, before entering the hall, Conan stood outside the door and glanced at the side of the castle. There was a charred stone tower there.
Ye Ling frowned from the beginning to the end. He felt that something was wrong along the way.
