Therefore, "Inspector Shiratori" was actually more concerned about what was happening inside that building. From time to time, he secretly glanced into the ruins: There really weren't any monsters like leopards or fish in the Underground Garage, right? The Mist Tengu wasn't in there, was it? He had a feeling that even if he and Mouri Ran hadn't shown up just now, Jiang Xia probably would have had some other way to escape...
As someone else who knew about monsters, Kid intended to take the opportunity to ask about the details.
However, when he turned around, Jiang Xia was already peacefully asleep, looking as though he had no intention of answering any questions.
Kid: "..." This guy really seemed to be pretending to sleep. Could there really have been monsters underground secretly protecting him? Damn it, he wanted that monster-friendly constitution too.
Just as he was about to reach out and shake him awake to quietly ask what had happened.
His hand had barely stretched out when Conan, beside him, happened to recall something and looked at him thoughtfully. "Inspector Shiratori is so busy. Shouldn't you be leaving?—Your colleagues won't come pick you up if you're any later, will they?"
"..." "Inspector Shiratori" silently withdrew his hand. A threat—this was a naked threat! Detectives really were all bastards—who was it that had Street Raced all the way over here with you? And now that you were done using him, you were tossing him aside? Ptoo!
But on closer inspection, the enormous commotion from the building collapse had indeed drawn attention. Quite a few police cars that had been searching for Scorpion had turned toward this area, seemingly intending to check on the situation. More and more officers were gathering. Staying any longer really did carry the risk of exposure.
