Chapter 100: Four, Five, Six...... Choose one
In the café, Shiraishi props his head on, ostensibly studying a copy of the manuscript spread out on the table, but in fact peeking at his own light screen.
[Fulfill the last wish of the old naughty writer who wants to see his daughter before he dies]
[Countdown to 15:32:41]
【Mission Details:】
【Recommended Item: New Naka Pauli x1】
Just now, when Shiraishi excused himself to go back to the room to get a pen and paper, he had checked the details of the mission.
The Twilight Police Department, which has always been confused, was right this time - the new couple was not kidnapped.
Two or three months ago, the new name Rentaro was unwell and went to the hospital for examination, but it was found that it was already terminal cancer. Realizing that his time was short, he patted his head and an idea popped into him.
"I don't have any regrets in my life, but after more than 40 years of writing, there is one thing I haven't been able to experience."
In the detailed clip replayed by the system, the white-haired old man smiled and twisted his beard and said, "I really hope to see that some readers can guess the truth of the case before I publish the answer." ”
- and then the big guy moved into a hotel with his wife, pretended to be kidnapped, and appeared in "Resurrection! The manuscript of Detective Left Text left a series of distress signals, hinting at his current location.
Considering that her daughter is different from the old man and the old lady, she has her own work and social interaction, and the new name Rentaro did not bring her daughter into the hotel.
At the same time, he felt that the new name Kahori was too upright and not very good at lying, and if he told her the truth, once she was questioned by the police and detectives, it would be easy to show her feet, so the new name Ren Taro was stunned and even hid his own daughter.
However, until his condition deteriorated, he did not wait for anyone to solve the case he directed and acted in.
The new old gentleman finally regretted it a little, and in a drowsy mood, he really wanted to see his well-behaved and sensible daughter again.
But it was hard for him to stay awake, and his words were so slurred that neither his wife nor his private doctor understood what he meant, and they did not tell anyone else what they were here, as they had done before.
After reading the details speechlessly, Shiraishi felt that this old man was really capable of tossing.
His death was not within the scope of Baishi's rescue, so the goal of this mission was not to bring the old man back to life, but to fulfill his unfulfilled wish.
Shiraishi guesses that the life of the new name Rentaro will probably stop at the last second of the countdown to the mission.
In this mission, the "recommended props" have already come to the door by themselves, and the remaining problem is the hiding place of the new name Rentaro.
Shiraishi sighed inwardly, knowing that he didn't light up the puzzle-solving skills, and didn't directly write the location into the mission details, did he hope that he would fulfill the last wish of the new name Rentaro "hoping to be challenged successfully"......
The new name Kaori also has some talent in reasoning, but now she is very confused, and she is not open like the protagonist group, and in the end she just deduces from the style and title page content and so on, that her father may have hidden information in the text.
As for where and what was hidden, she couldn't think of it at all.
Shiraishi returned to the café and scratched the manuscript paper for a while, he tried the common hidden head and tail progressive interpretation, but he couldn't solve the words of a person who was enough to write it.
When he watched the original work of this world, he was still too young, and the puzzle-solving cases were mainly related to Japanese, and at that time he neither knew Japanese, nor was his IQ mature, so his attention was focused on the plot.
As for the solution to the word puzzle, not to mention that it has been a few years, even if he is asked to repeat it as soon as he reads it, he may not be able to say much.
…… Now it's regret, very much regret.
If you can't solve puzzles, you can only start with what you're good at.
Shiraishi looked serious and began to guess.
Judging from the details of the case, the new name Rentaro later moved into a hotel.
Hotel Words...... A big writer, who is not in good health and wants to live for a long time, the place he chooses will definitely not be too bad, so it should not be a small hotel on the side of the road, but a more comfortable and safer hotel.
I asked the new name Kaori and learned that she had been investigating near Rice Flower Town. Shiraishi guessed again that in the original world line, the place where this case occurred was also likely to be around here.
Shiraishi turned his pen and touched the map, originally wanting to draw a circle on the town of rice flower and the town of Kakudo, but after thinking about it before starting the pen, he felt that it was too wasteful, and the map would definitely be useful in the future.
In the end, he just poked it with his finger and drew a circle, which looked very high-ranking - there are circles in his heart, and there are circles in his eyes.
There are many hotels in this area, but only four or five are upscale enough.
Thinking about the image projected when he checked the details of the mission, Shiraishi had an idea: he could sneak in and check the room style to compare it with the room in the projection, or find a way to peek at the guest registration form.
It's around twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and judging from the deadline of the mission, it will be too late to find a place before three o'clock in the morning tomorrow.
In other words, you can open the mask state up to six times, and each time you can open it for more than an hour, so there is plenty of time.
In addition, if this plan does not go well, then he has an alternative - find Conan or Yusaku Kudo and try to get the two reasoning machines to help solve the puzzle.
After making up his mind, Shiraishi ranked the hotels in order from near to far.
This unconventional and somewhat unpredictable means of finding the prophet is certainly not for the parties to see. Shiraishi was ready to wait until he found a place before contacting her.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and asked if the new name Kahori had a big brother, and wanted her to carry it with him for the next 24 hours.
As a result, after the girl was stunned, she took out a flip phone with an antenna from her clothes pocket, and asked carefully: "Is this okay?" ”
“?!”
Technology actually evolved secretly from him!
Shiraishi glanced at her phone in shock, cleared his throat slightly embarrassed, and nodded at her inquiring gaze.
After jotting down the mobile phone number of her new name, Kahori, Shiraishi sent her away, after which he changed into clothes that would keep him warm, took his map, and set off as planned.
However, since mobile phones have begun to be updated, the foyer of the big hotel may also begin to install monitoring.
After a long struggle between looking through the wall in a bokeh state, tearfully observing in each hotel, and sneaking in as a cat to slowly peep, Shiraishi finally chose the last one.
The time of the virtual state is too short, and the body must be very close to the scene, plus he doesn't know which room there are people, if he can't find a suitable place to appear after entering, he is forced to return to the body, and consumes the number of times, it will be too much to lose.
The second one goes without saying. In contrast, it is best to sneak in in the form of a cat.
……
Half an hour later, Shiraishi opened his eyes in the box of a small Internet café and crossed out the list of new hotels in Mihua City.
Next...... He glanced at the map and quickly fixed his gaze on the pencil (2).
- Rice Flower Luxury Hotel.
