ChapterThe Magician at the End of the 86th Century (2)
“…… Hey, hey. Hearing the person call out his name, Conan, who was beside me, reflexively glanced at Xiaolan, then narrowed his half-moon eyes, and looked helplessly at the person who was still holding the helmet in his hand: Hattori, this guy, when will he have a better memory!
Sure enough, Conan's worries were not unreasonable, looking at Hattori Heiji who came over, Xiaolan frowned: "Mo~ Hattori, why do you call Kudo to Conan every time?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Hattori scratched his head apologetically, pointed at Conan and smiled: "Well, there's no way, because this guy's eyes really look like Kudo, and he always calls out unconsciously." ”
"Che, what an idiot! I woke up early this morning and shouted something, 'Kudo is coming, Kudo is coming!' I look at you," Yuan Yama and Ye Man, who followed behind Hattori, were all interpreting the word 'disgust' on their faces: "It's best to go to the hospital and see the doctor!
"Hey, I'm talking about you......" Hattori turned his head, dissatisfied.
Ah, sure enough, since I've come to Osaka, it's impossible not to meet this famous Kansai detective, and he's as energetic as ever.
Looking at a certain dark-skinned young detective who was happily arguing with his childhood sweetheart, I squinted and shrugged my shoulders, turned around wisely and followed Yuan Zi and the others into the main entrance of the art museum, well, just let them quarrel......
Kindness...... Anyway, I wonder if Conan told this person about me?
…………
President's Room~
"Ah, it's Mr. Maori," as soon as he walked into the president's room, he saw an uncle who looked like a typical rich man, and greeted him with a smile: "Thank you so much for coming from afar!"
"Ah, hello. He shook hands with the visitor, and Mori Kogoro was still very polite in a formal setting.
Looking at the middle-aged uncle who shook hands with Maori Kogoro, I raised my eyebrows, well, this person is Shiro Suzuki, the president of the Suzuki chaebol, is it Suzuki Sonoko's father?
"Ah, Xiaolan and Conan are here too!" After shaking hands, Shiro Suzuki showed everyone's demeanor, smiled and nodded to Kolan Conan, and then looked at Suzuki Sonoko, looked at me and Hattori Heiji and others suspiciously, and asked, "Who are these ......?"
"Ah, Dad, I'll introduce you to you. This nasty imp with a stinky face is Mochizuki Night, Conan's classmate. Suzuki Sonoko pointed at me unhappily and said. Then he continued with a smile: "What about this, it's Toyama and Ye and Hattori Heiji!Hattori Heiji~ Dad, you know him, right?"
"Oh, this little brother is Hattori Heiji?" Suzuki Shiro glanced at Hattori Heiji in surprise, as a businessman's tactfulness made Suzuki Shiro's attitude even when facing a strange little ghost: "Hattori Heiji, of course I know, known as the Kansai High School Detective, he is very famous in Kansai! Haha, great, since you are here, then this time I have to ask you!"
"Don't worry, it's on me, old man!" Hattori Heiji agreed with a big grin.
"Hey, you stinky boy, how can you call an old man at President Suzuki?" next to him, Mori Kogoro said dissatisfiedly.
"Ah~ It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Mori. Suzuki Shiro pushed his hand absently, pointed to the person sitting on the sofa, and changed the topic with a smile: "Come, let me introduce you to you, this is the first secretary of the Russian ambassador, Siru Ovchinnikov." ”
"Please advise!" Siru politely stood up and said.
"The one next door is the art dealer I found, Mr. Gan Jiangyi. Shiro Suzuki continued to introduce them one by one, "And then next to him is the Roman Dynasty researcher Pu Si Qinglan. ”
"Hello!" The woman in a blue cheongsam bowed slightly and greeted us in broken Chinese.
Chinese Maybe it's because in the past, there was a Chinese girl who grew up with me, and even though our relationship is now unrecognizable, I still unconsciously paid special attention to this woman who spoke Chinese.
"And this is a freelance video writer who applied to shoot the emperor's Easter egg, Mr. Ryu Hankawa. Shiro Suzuki pointed to the last person and made an introduction.
"Please advise!" A freelance writer is a freelance writer, and even if it is the first time they meet, they still maintain a cynical attitude, and Hankawa Ryu holds the camera in his hand and says hello with a smile.
Maori Kogoro greeted everyone one by one, then turned around and went straight to the point: "So, what is the value of the Easter eggs they identify?"
"800 million!" The art dealer in the red suit did not hesitate to make an offer.
"Eh?!What?!! 800 million !!" Mori Kogoro was shocked by what seemed to him to be a completely sky-high price.
"That's right, if you're willing to sell, I can raise the price even more. ”
"President, the Emperor's Easter eggs are a Russian thing! I think it would be better to send them to the Russian Art Museum than to sell them to this kind of black market without vision. Hearing the ambition in the cadre's tone, Xilu hurriedly interjected.
"Well, you say I don't have vision?" Listening to Xilu's unceremonious words, the anger of the cadre came up all of a sudden.
"Ahhhh Hanchuan Long removed the camera in his hand, his words were full of sarcasm, and then he stood up, squinted at Pu Siqinglan, who had not expressed his position, and said in a frivolous tone: "I said, you don't care about yourself, it stands to reason that you are a researcher of the Roman Dynasty, shouldn't you want it more than anyone else?"
"Yes, yes...... Pu Si Qinglan's face was a little ugly, but it was understandable: "But I don't have 800 million yuan ......"
"Ah, that's what I'm saying, I only got 200 million ......" Han Chuanlong looked nerve-wracked, as if he had given up.
But...... I sneered at the people who had been ordered to be evicted by Chairman Suzuki and were about to leave. Desire, but it's endless......
When everyone was leaving, they happened to meet Mr. Nishino, who had been missing, and walked in with a beautifully packaged box in his hand: "President, I brought the eggs." ”
"Ah, here?" Shiro Suzuki nodded casually, "Put it on the table." ”
Huh, the ...... Is that what Kidd is aiming for?
Looking at the easter eggs carefully placed in the box, I didn't feel anything, but I just scratched my head slightly, but Xiaolan, looking at the small artwork in front of me, the girl's face was curious: "Eh, this is the emperor's Easter egg?"
"It's not as beautiful as I imagined. There was a hint of disappointment in Hattori's tone.
"It's like an ostrich egg. Yuan Shan and Ye spat casually.
"Now, uncle, can this be opened?" Conan stared at the egg for a moment, and saw the clue.
"yes, you know that!" Shiro Suzuki glanced at Conan approvingly, and then opened the lid above the Egg of Memory: "Here is a model of Emperor Nichola's family, all made of gold. ”
"Wow-"
"That's amazing!"
"It's beautiful!"
The lid was opened, and the internal structure of the Egg of Memories succeeded in winning the exclamations of everyone present.
Next, Shiro Suzuki briefly introduced this valuable egg of memories to everyone, because I wasn't interested, so I didn't care, but later, the topic was talked about, and I talked about the teaser letter from Kidd the Strange Thief, which caught my attention.
I've read Kidd's teaser letter, but to be honest, even though I don't think I'm stupid, I'm still insensitive to solving puzzles. What's more, there are two young detectives by his side, so it's better to leave this kind of matter to them.
"Hey, you say, that teaser letter from Kidd, the glowing sky attic...... Why is Osaka Castle shining?" It seems that Heiji Hattori is still confused about Kidd's notice letter.
"Eight~Ga!" Toyama Kazuha looked at Hattori Heiji with disdain, worried about his IQ: "Of course, it's because Mr. Taiko, who built Osaka Castle, thinks that the development of Osaka is like the light of Osaka." ”
"That's right, Kidd will be in the castle tower of Osaka Castle, that's absolutely right," As soon as Kazuha's words fell, a somewhat unfamiliar-sounding voice came from far and near outside the door, but the people who came were also puzzled: "But when the clock without a second hand goes to the 12th character, I just don't understand this sentence!"
Isn't this the Nakamori Police Department?
Looking at the menacing police officer who walked in, I shook my head, ah, I almost forgot, this person has been tracking down the strange thief Kidd for a long time, and I didn't expect to meet this old acquaintance here this time.
Well, well, I'm not very familiar with each other, but I've known each other for a long time. Nakamori Ginzo, the Department of Metropolitan Police Metropolitan Police Criminal Department Investigation Division 2 Intelligent Crime Search Department Police Department, more than ten years ago, when I was really just a child, I had an intersection with this police officer because of the first strange thief Kidd, but, more than ten years have passed, I didn't expect him to still hold on to the case of the strange thief Kidd.
"Well, when the clock without a second hand goes to the 12th character, doesn't it mean the 12th character in Japanese with 50 sounds?" And Ye also seem to know the Nakamori Police Department, so they are not surprised by his sudden intrusion.
"The twelfth?a,i,u,e,o......" Xiaolan tilted her head and counted them one by one, "Is it si?"
"That's four o'clock?" asked the garden, of course.
"No, Kidd's code won't be that simple. However, the Nakamori Police Department did not hesitate to deny the speculation of the garden.
"Ahh......h
"English letters?"
"That's right! is the 12th word L, which is ......"
"Three o'clock?" Officer Chaki, who came in with the Nakamori Police Department, asked hesitantly, and then quickly nodded affirmatively, "Yes, that's right, it's still before dawn at three o'clock in the morning, which is exactly the same as the "Dawn Girl". ”
"Ah, it's worthy of a detective!" he gave Maori Kogoro an admiring look, and with a positive answer, the mood of the Nakamori Police Department began to rise: "Ha! Strange thief Kidd, this time I must bring you to justice!"
Ha, that's a familiar phrase.
Looking at the emotional officer Nakamori, he remembered what happened more than ten years ago, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a slight arc.
"Wow wow!! you actually laughed! I read that right!!" The matter of the notice letter was solved, Suzuki Sonoko somehow fell his eyes on me, looking at Suzuki Sonoko who jumped in front of me in shock, I slowly put away the small arc of my face, speechless.
"Huh, this kid, have we met somewhere?" Because of Suzuki Sonoko, Nakamori Ginzo, who was already immersed in his own beautiful fantasies, suddenly woke up from unreality, and then noticed me, and after looking at it for a long time, Nakamori Ginzo asked hesitantly.
"Uncle officer, you recognize the wrong person, I haven't seen you. I looked at him quietly, slightly surprised in my heart, this guy, won't it be ten years, remember me? But think about it, it was really a bit too much at that time, and it won't leave any shadow on this police officer, right?
"Ah, is it?" the Nakamori Police Department scratched his head, thought for a long time to no avail, and gave up, "I should have misremembered...... Hahahaha!Kidd, you're waiting!!"
Ha...... It's really as easy to deceive as ever......
Looking at Ginzo Nakamori, who was once again immersed in his endless fantasies, I sighed lowly, but is Mori Kogoro's reasoning really correct?
