Chapter 1028

Akaso Kaze looked at the deep-in-thought Conan and led everyone out of the North Mansion toward the central Bull Mansion.

Outside, the searchlights were still scanning everywhere, which was quite concerning.

There was also the riddle being announced at 9 o'clock, and the challenge time was only 24 hours, meaning until 9 o'clock tomorrow night...

There seemed to be some deep meaning in this.

If the code was related to time, the significance of announcing it at 9 o'clock was that everyone could wait until the sun went down and the security system was activated...

Ai walked to Akaso Kaze's side and took his hand, "You already know the answer to the riddle, don't you?"

Akaso Kaze smiled and pinched Haibara Ai's little cheek, "Hey, you should use your brain too."

Turning his head, he saw Tokei's figure flash by behind them.

"Let's go to the Bull Mansion and take a look first," Genta shouted from the side.

Passing through the corridor and going up to the central high ground, one could see through the window that the giant bull was still the same as before.

"It's still a bit scary to look at!"

Ayumi didn't dare to look directly at the bull, but she really wanted to solve the riddle, so she could only hesitate and hide behind Akaso Kaze.

Genta, on the other hand, had his competitive spirit stirred up and climbed up along the bull's leg.

"This bull is so special, there must be something... damn it, it's too slippery. If only there were a ladder!"

"Genta, be careful, will you?"

Mitsuhiko stood depressed under the bronze statue and looked at the East Mansion outside.

"But then again, isn't that East Mansion very suspicious? Saying no one is allowed to approach it... maybe the riddle is just a smokescreen, and the treasure is actually in the East Mansion."

"That's hard to say," Ai saw that Akaso Kaze had been keeping an eye on the outside, and walked with her hands behind her back to the bronze bull statue, "Since it's a challenge regarding inheritance rights, there's no reason to play a prank on the heir..."
