Chapter 11 Ten, seven major weapons

The boy Xiao Lin stayed in a daze for twenty minutes, kept in the darkness underground, maintaining the posture when he fell, and hurt his waist when he landed, causing him to be unable to move due to the pain. After Twenty Faces taunted him from above his head, the lid of the trap was tightly closed.It was hopeless, he became a prisoner, and there was no possibility of seeing the light of day again.If the Kaitou didn't give him food like this, he would starve to death silently in the basement of the abandoned house that no one knew about. Faced with such a terrible experience at a young age, how can you bear it?If it was an ordinary teenager, in this kind of loneliness and fear, I am afraid that he would not be able to survive despair, and could only cry bitterly.

However, young Lin Xiao not only did not cry, nor did he despair.He is strong and doesn't feel like he has lost to Twenty Faces. After the back pain gradually subsided, the first thing the boy did was to lightly touch the small canvas bag that was slung over his shoulder and hidden under the rags. "Beep, are you alright?" While speaking strange words, he stroked gently through the cloth bag.So the little thing in the schoolbag squirmed slightly. "Ah, Beep, you didn't hurt anything. As long as you're here, I don't feel lonely at all." After confirming that Bebo was safe and sound, young boy Xiaolin sat in the dark, took off the small cloth bag from his shoulder, took out a pen-shaped flashlight from inside, and picked up the six diamonds and the pistol scattered on the ground by the light of the flashlight , Received in the cloth bag, by the way, carefully check whether the various items in the cloth bag are missing.

The seven weapons of the young detective are intact, and they are all inside.It is said that in ancient times, there was a hero named Musashibo Benkei who carried all the self-defense weapons on his back. That set of weapons was called "Seven Weapons of Benkei" and has been handed down to this day.And Kobayashi's "Seven Detective Weapons" are not real weapons, his "weapons" are small things that can be grasped together with two hands, but when it comes to functions, they are definitely not inferior to Benkei's Seven Great Weapons. arms. First up is the penlight.Lighting is very important when surveying at night.In addition, this flashlight can sometimes be used to signal.

Second, is the small universal knife.There are also different blades such as saws, scissors, and pointed cones in this folding knife. Next, it is a rope ladder made of tough thread, which is only the size of a palm when folded.In addition, there are pen-shaped binoculars, clocks, compasses, small notepads and pencils, and the miniature pistol that was used to threaten the Kaitou not long ago. In addition, don't forget that there is a beep.I took a photo with a flashlight and it turned out that it was a pigeon.This time, the lovely pigeon is folding its wings and shrinking its body, nestling meekly in a corner of the schoolbag.

"Beep. It's a bit crowded, but you have to be patient. Otherwise, it will be bad if the bad uncle finds out." As the boy Xiaolin said, he patted the pigeon's head, and the pigeon beeped back as if he understood. Bee Bo is the mascot of the Boy Detectives.He believes from the bottom of his heart that as long as he is with this mascot, even if he encounters a great crisis, he can save himself from danger. Not only that, but this pigeon also played an important role.In the detective business, just like in war, communication equipment is more important than anything else. The military has radio teams, and the police have radio vans, but private investigators don't have that kind of thing.It would be best if there was a small transmitter that could be hidden under the clothes, but it was a pity that he couldn't get such a high-end gadget, so the boy Xiaolin came up with the interesting method of carrier pigeons.

This is indeed a childish idea.However, the child's innocence can sometimes have the effect of surprising adults. "In this cloth bag, I have my radio and my plane." Xiaolin boy once said to himself triumphantly.It turns out that the carrier pigeon is not only a radio, but also an airplane. Well, after checking the seven major weapons, he contentedly hid the cloth bag under his clothes, then picked up the flashlight, and began to inspect the basement.Since you want to fight, you have to scout the terrain first. The basement is about ten tatami mats in size, with concrete walls on all sides, and seems to have been used as a storage room in the past.He guessed that there should be stairs, but after looking for it, he found a large wooden ladder hanging from a corner of the ceiling of the room.It's a pity that not only the entrances and exits were sealed, but even the stairs were pulled up. It must be said that the guards of this strange thief were very strict and cautious.Judging from this situation, it is absolutely impossible to escape from the basement.

In the corner of the room was a bench that was about to be scrapped. Apart from a crumpled old blanket, there was nothing that could be considered as furniture.It's like a prison here. Young Lin looked at the bench and suddenly thought of something. "Soji Hashiba must have been locked in this basement before. And, he must have slept on this bench." Thinking of it this way, an inexplicable sense of intimacy suddenly rose in my heart.He approached the bench, pressed the upholstery, and lifted the blanket. "Then I'll sleep on this bed too." The brave young detective was talking to himself, and then lay down on the bench.

Everything will be discussed after dawn. Before that, we must recharge our batteries.Indeed, this is true in theory, but in such a terrible situation, it is not possible for ordinary teenagers to be able to sleep so calmly. "Beep, let's go to bed. And, I have an interesting dream." Junior Kobayashi carefully held the cloth bag containing Beep on his chest, and closed his eyes in the darkness. Soon, from the direction of the "bed" on the bench, came the sound of the boy's even breathing.
