The next day after school, Amamiya Ren did not choose to go home, but first went to the canal near the Tokyo Tower.
After confirming a rough location on the map, he began to identify which abandoned building it was on the bank of the canal.
"There are so many abandoned buildings here."
There were many abandoned buildings on the bank of the canal. This place was practically a gathering place for abandoned buildings. He wondered what this place was used for before.
After searching for about ten minutes, his footsteps stopped in front of an abandoned building.
"It seems to be here."
He looked around.
This was a building on the bank of the canal, with no houses or shops around.
It was truly in the middle of nowhere.
Because there were no houses around, the probability of seeing someone enter here was very low.
Unless the local government needed to redevelop this area, it seemed that this abandoned building on the bank of the canal would not be able to attract any more people.
"A thief is quite good at hiding things."
"But now it's quite suitable for me to make a move."
Such a secluded place was indeed not easy for people to find.
Not even a single person was seen exercising here. It would be quite difficult for the police to find it and directly locate an abandoned building.
Amamiya Ren walked up to this abandoned building.
The door below was locked, but the emergency exit could be entered.
He glanced at the locked door below. Inside, there were cardboard boxes piled up for an unknown amount of time, and there was a thick layer of dust accumulated on the ground.
“It seems it’s not here.”
He walked up the emergency passage to the top floor of the building.
He took a pair of gloves out of his schoolbag and twisted the handle.
"Creak!"
The rusty door creaked open.
“It seems the thing is here.”
No one was on the rooftop.
Amamiya Ren opened his Spirit Vision. Indeed, there wasn't a single person here, even the vengeful spirits.
However, he looked up.
There were four things hanging from the ceiling, packed in thick bags and deliberately placed on the ceiling.
Standing below, Amamiya Ren extended a few wispy tendrils from his side, quickly sweeping past the four bags hanging above, taking them down.
He walked forward, looking at the four bags he had taken down. Inside were four bags of bright, golden coins. His glasses were also dyed golden by the setting sun.
"A fortune from heaven."
"Although I don’t know which fool hid it here, since it was placed here, it’s ownerless."
"Then it’s only natural for me to take the ownerless things. It’s very reasonable."
He found a reason for himself to be able to take the treasure without guilt.
Amamiya Ren didn't have that much psychological burden. He directly sent the four big bags filled with gold coins back to the "Source Castle."
As for how to sell these gold coins, that was another matter.
He walked out of the emergency exit door with a cheerful mood.
He gently closed the door and was about to leave.
Suddenly, he paused, his finger tapping on the door lock.
"The treasure room still needs attention. If some mischievous children run in, it wouldn’t be good."
"I should still "lock" it."
The extraordinary characteristic acted on the lock, sealing the entire door more securely.
Now, he could avoid the risk of mischievous children breaking in.
The treasure room wouldn’t be so easily discovered by others either.
After completing the final security measures, Amamiya Ren walked down the safety passage.
As he walked downstairs, the evening sun had begun to set, and the streetlights around had begun to light up.
But for this reason, it made the surrounding area even more deserted.
He couldn’t hear any extra sounds. It seemed eerie in the almost night.
This made Amamiya Ren even more clear why there was no one here.
"Such a spooky place, even the homeless would be scared out of their minds."
At least he could be sure that those homeless people would rather wander the streets than stay in this gloomy abandoned building area.
He tidied up his mood and prepared to go home.
Nothing happened on the way home.
No one knew he got the treasure.
As for that gloomy abandoned building area, it was indeed very scary.
Mainly because when one has the ability to kill vengeful spirits with one shot, then it’s not people that one should be afraid of, but those ignorant and fearless vengeful spirits.
On the way home, Amamiya Ren kept thinking about those gold coins.
When he got home, he suddenly had a hunch.
A strange feeling made him turn on the TV.
Then he saw a news report.
It was about the Italian gang.
The gang leader had been apprehended by the police, but the 15,000 maple leaf gold coins stolen by the gang were still missing.
"Ah..."
Seeing this news, Amamiya Ren subconsciously took out a maple leaf gold coin that he had hidden in the Source Castle.
"It’s this case."
"I was wondering why it felt a little familiar."
He didn't remember the stories that came later in Conan, but he had a vivid impression of the earlier stories.
For example, this first case related to the "Detective Boys."
Looking at the maple leaf gold coin in his hand.
"I seem to have locked the door completely."
"The seal was done using the "Apprentice"’s opening and closing extraordinary abilities. Ordinary people couldn’t open it unless they took down the whole door."
"A group of kids don’t have that ability."
"So, does that mean I’ve saved the "Detective Boys" once?"
He didn't know if it could be considered that.
Even if it wasn’t considered that, Amamiya Ren didn’t mind.
As long as the emergency exit door couldn’t be opened, and the front door couldn’t be entered either, those kids, no matter how smart they were, would only choose to give up.
Then, the gang that came after them shouldn’t attack those kids who didn’t find the gold coins.
Well, no big deal.
But he could still record it in his diary.
【Something interesting happened today.】
【I found some treasure left behind by a foolish thief near the Tokyo Tower.】
【Ah, the golden coins were so dazzling, it made my eyes go blurry.】
【Gold is truly a good thing.】
【Especially for me, who’s always been a bit tight on money.】
【Although I don’t want to rob, if a fool hides the loot he’s stolen, I won’t be polite.】
【Well, like that stupid Italian gang who hid the gold coins as treasure.】
【But it’s because of that stupid Italian gang that I remembered the first case of the "Detective Boys".】
【A detective organization led by the high school detective, Shinichi Kudo, who turned into a little kid.】
【Honestly, in the beginning, those kids still knew to be afraid. But as time goes on, those kids are becoming more and more fearless.】
【They’re starting to get more and more annoying.】
【Well, but this time they’re doomed if they want to run into the treasure room.】
【This should be considered helping them solve the first danger they faced.】
