Detective Conan - Rachel: Kidnapped
Chapter 2
Cough… Gasp…
She couldn't breath well.
W-What… What is… going on…? W-Where… am I…?
Her air supply was slowly being taken away. In just an hour, there wouldn't be enough air left to survive. She would die. She would die if someone didn't save her.
---
"RACHEL!" Conan yelled.
"Damn it… How can we save her!?" Richard exclaimed.
Conan and Richard had been thrown into a second prison. They weren't going to be killed--they had all the air they needed. The man that was taking away Rachel's air supply had set a timer so that they'd be freed from their prison one hour later--right after Rachel would have died.
"LET US OUT!" Conan screamed as loud as he could, but he didn't realize that the man wasn't there.
The man was leaving on a private plane to America. He was going to get away with murdering Rachel.
"Why would he think I killed his daughter!? I don't even know what he's talking about!" Richard yelled, talking to himself.
Hm… I wonder why this man is murdering Rachel…? What is he getting revenge on Richard for…? Richard obviously didn't kill his daughter… Unless… he killed her indirectly…? Conan wondered.
"Did you somehow accidentally cause the death of his daughter?" Conan asked.
"What the Hell do you mean!?" Richard yelled as he smacked Conan on the head, "I'm not a murderer, I'm a detective! That's the complete opposite!"
"What I mean is, did you somehow indirectly kill his daughter?"
"Shut up! What does it matter!? Rachel's going to die even if we find out why he's killing her!"
He's right… We should just find a way to save her for now… but how…?
The room was small, and the walls were plain. They were behind bars and a door was outside the bars. Conan looked around the room for anything that could allow them to escape. Then, Conan noticed a camera that was watching them.
Hm…
"Lift me up to that camera!" Conan told Richard.
"What!? Whatever…"
Richard lifted him up to the camera and Conan ripped it right out of the wall.
"What's that going to do!?" Richard exclaimed.
"You'll see…"
About a minute later, a guard showed up.
"Stupid brat, ripping out that camera…" the guard grumbled, "Now I have to watch the prisoners from here…"
The guard set a chair down and sat there.
Just as I thought… He has the keys to get us out of here. Now… I just have to get him in the right position…
"Hey, mister, what are those?" Conan asked curiously as he pointed at the keys hanging out of the guard's pocket.
"Just what are you doing…?" Richard whispered.
Conan ignored him.
"These? They're keys to unlock the prison you're in," the guard replied as he pulled them out of his pocket and waved them in front of himself, taunting Conan.
Heh… What an idiot…
Conan lifted his wrist watch stun gun to his eye level, aimed, and shot the guard in the neck. He fell forward, the keys sliding right under the bars and into the prison.
"Eh!? How'd you do that!?" Richard exclaimed.
"Forget it, just unlock it," Conan answered while he gave the keys to Richard, who unlocked the prison by reaching between two bars.
And they ran through the house--or, better yet, the mansion--in search of the prison Rachel was in. They ran through room after room after room but still didn't find Rachel's prison.
"W-Where… is she…!?" Richard coughed out, exhausted from running.
Where could she be…?
Conan wondered Unless… she's not in this house!?Then, a second guard walked in front them.
"Hahaha… You really think she's in this house!? Of course, Master Kaidou took her with him on his private plane!"
"K-Kaidou…!?" Richard exclaimed.
"Yes, Master Kaidou. So now you know why he's getting revenge for killing Rachel? HAHAHAHAHA!"
I… killed Kaidou's daughter!? Richard realized.
