The Twilight Police Department introduced the Otaki Police Department in Osaka Prefecture and the Ayakoji Police Department in Kyoto Prefecture to Officer Sato and others.

"Recently, there have been three homicides in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, involving a total of five lives, and based on some of the objects found in the homes of the five deceased, we deduce that the five deceased were all members of the thief group Hotaru Genji," the Shiratori Police Department said. ”

The Twilight Police Department said, "The Genji Hotaru Thieves all wear masks when they commit crimes, and we have limited information at the moment, but we know that the largest number of people they committed at one time was eight people, and they called each other by their names in the Yoshitsune, so we called them the Genji Hotaru Thieves." ”

The Shiratori Police Department said, "The nicknames of these eight people are called Yoshitsune, Benkei, Suruga Jiro, Ise Saburo, Bizen Heishiro, Kamei Rokuro, Washio Shichiro, and Kataoka Hachiro. ”

The Otaki Police Department said, "Based on the photos in the Genji Hotaru Thieves Group data, judging from the figure, it is speculated that Hirashiro Bizen is the boss of Osaka Takotaira. ”

The Ayakoji Police Department said, "The owner of the Kyoto Jiro bar who was killed may be Jiro Suruga. ”

The Shiratori Police Department said, "We don't know who the three people killed in Tokyo were, or if they were one of the eight, so we still think that there are five more people in the Genji Hotaru Thieves Troupe." ”

"The targets of the Genji Hotaru Thieves are small antiques, especially Buddha statues, and the scope of the crime is concentrated in the Kanto region and the region, so this time, we, the Metropolitan Police Department, will conduct a joint investigation with the Osaka Prefectural Police and the Kyoto Prefectural Police, and we will not only catch the murderer, but also arrest all the Genji Hotaru Bandits." ”

"Yes!" Officer Sato and the others responded. ……

In the afternoon, the Maori Detective Agency.

When Ran came back from school, he found a letter from Kyoto's Sannoji Temple in his mailbox, and Mori opened it to find that it was a letter of entrustment inviting him to Kyoto to investigate the incident, and the time was tomorrow.

"By the way, Lan, do you have plans to go to Kyoto to see the Golden City during the break?" said Maori, "Then we can go together tomorrow." ”

"No, this year, May 3rd is a Saturday, and there is a three-day gap in between, so this year's holiday starts on Saturday, May 3rd, and then ends on May 6th. Lan said dejectedly.

"Then I'll go alone tomorrow. Maori said.

"And how many days are you going to be there?" Lan asked.

"How do I know that. Maori said.

"Alright then, I'll help you get a few more clothes. Lan said. ……

Tuesday, April 29, morning, Kyoto Station of the Shinkansen Shinkansen in Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto City.

A monk in his thirties with hair received Mori, "Mr. Mori, it's really hard for you to come all the way, I'm Ryuen of Sanno Temple." ”

Maori asked, "Ah, hello, I don't know if you asked me to come over ......"

"Let's go back to the temple about this matter. The monk's face was embarrassed.

"Of course, of course. "Maori is a little embarrassed, and other people's privacy is really not good to talk about in public. ……

Sanno Temple.

The temple is located in the middle of the city, and the old temple does not fit in with the modern buildings around it, but it is a reflection of the temple's long history.

The cherry blossom trees inside the door are in full bloom, and the oncoming fragrance of flowers, accompanied by the cherry blossom petals blowing in the wind, washes away the dust of the beginners, and makes the laity also add a trace of Zen.

The four chattering people in the court greeted him, and the old monk led by him said: "Mr. Maori, the old Na Yuanhai, there is a long way to go." ”

"Master, you're welcome. Maori replied.

Monk Ryuen introduced, "These three gentlemen are all regular visitors to the temple, Mr. Sakura Masazo, an antique dealer, Mr. Harutaro Mizuo, the heir to Noh Mizuo, and Mr. Saijo Taiga, the owner of an antique bookstore. ”

"Hello everyone. Maori said.

"It's gratifying to have admired Mr. Maori's name for a long time, and it's better to hear it than to see it. Chubby Sakura laughed.

"Am I that famous?" said Maori.

Harutaro Mizuo said to Master Yenkai, "Then, let's go back first today." ”

Saijo Taiga said, "That's right, there are a lot of times to learn kendo, and that is still the most important thing. ”

Maori asked, "That thing is ......"

"Let Master Yen Hai tell you," Sakura said with a smile, "I really have something to do today, I'll come back in a few days to pick up the wind for you, Mr. Mori, and ask Mr. Mori to stay here for a few more days." Then, without waiting for Mori's answer, he bowed to Hiromi and left.

Then, Harutaro Mizuo and Saijo Taiga also left after saluting Master Enkai.

"Mr. Maori, please follow me. Master Ran Hai said.

"You please. Maori said politely.

Moments later, Tsunokai and Ryuen Monk took Mori to an offering hall.

The monk said: "Yamanoji Temple has been handed down to this day, there are three Buddha statues of Zhenji Temple, which are the Buddha statue of Yakushi Nyorai, the statue of Nikko Bodhisattva, and the statue of Moonlight Bodhisattva, these three Buddha statues appear once every 12 years, and they are one of the symbols of Shannoji Temple. ”

"Well, they can't have been stolen, right?" Maori guessed.

"That's right," said the monk, "but the thieves didn't take all the three statues, but only the statue of Yakushi Nyorai. ”

As he spoke, Maori saw a Buddhist shrine with two Buddha statues about one meter high on the left and one on the right, and one missing in the middle.

Maori asked, "When did this happen?"

"It's been a long time," said the monk, "I had given up hope, but a few days ago, someone sent me a letter saying that if we cracked the code on it, we could find the Buddha statue, and we couldn't see it, so we asked you to come over." ”

"I see," Maori laughed, "I'll leave this matter to me." ”

The monk handed over a letter, and Mori looked at it, and there was a picture inside, but he couldn't understand it for a while.

Maori asked, "Well, what day is the consecration?"

"May 5th. Master Yen Hai said, "There are seven days left even today. ”

"Seven days to go. Maori smiled, "Please rest assured, I will definitely be able to get the Buddha statue back." ”

"Then please. The monk said. ……

Friday, May 2, morning, Metropolitan Police Department.

Since the search for several days was fruitless, the Twilight Police Department, Shiratori Police Department, Otaki Police Department, and Ayakoji Police Department decided to hold a press conference today after deliberation.

Take the initiative to uncover the Genji Hotaru Thieves, describe the deaths of the five Genji Hotaru Thieves as infighting, and encourage the other members to voluntarily surrender to the police for their own lives, so that the other members of the Genji Hotaru Thieves Group are wary of each other, and if there is friction between them, it may be exposed. ……

In the evening, Kyoto Station.

Sonoko, Ran, and Conan walked out of the platform and took a taxi to Yamanoji Temple to find Mori.

Seeing Maori's headache, Conan couldn't wait to ask Maori about the commission.

Maori said that the Buddha statue was stolen, and he also took out the code.

There is a large pattern like a five-story staircase on the code, and there are some small patterns on the plane and right angle of the stairs.

There are three small patterns on the fifth floor at the top of the stairs, from left to right, red cicadas, green tengu masks, and red goldfish.

In the right-angled plane between the fifth and fourth floors of the staircase, there is a black dot on the right that resembles a brush dot.

There are two small patterns in the plane of the fourth floor of the stairs, a golden rooster and a yellow loach.

There are three patterns on the right-angled face between the third and second floors of the stairs, Violet, another green Tengu mask, and Mt. Fuji.

And next to this small Mt. Fuji pattern, next to the whole step pattern, there is also a brown oak chestnut pattern.

Completely clueless, Lan and Yuanzi went to the night market, and Conan stayed to continue thinking under the banner of staying with Maori. ……
