"Wow! If you look closer, this clock tower is so high? It's really magnificent! ”

As the first puzzle was solved at Shimizu Shizu's speed, Maori and his party were among the first to arrive at the clock tower.

Mao Lilan looked up and stood in front of the Western-style clock tower in front of him, which was almost ten stories high, and couldn't help but admire.

"Indeed." Sonoko Suzuki nodded and said, "I read the navigation app before, and this clock tower was originally built by foreigners in the Edo period, and now it has been restored and remodeled, and it has become the most special symbol of this Edo street. ”

"No wonder we set the first mystery here, it seems that the organizers really want us to come and see this tower......" Mori Kogoro walked over slowly with his hands in his trouser pockets.

"If you look at it this way, this reasoning event was really specially planned by the organizers so that we, the guests, can fully understand the various buildings of this Edo Street......

Ayako Suzuki said, walking up to everyone with Shimizu Shizu, and also looking up at the tall clock tower in front of her.

However, unlike her who was smiling all over her face, Qing Shui Jing seemed to have encountered something urgent, her hands kept pressing on her mobile phone, her head was lowered, and her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.

"Anyway, shall we go in first and have a look?" Sonoko Suzuki couldn't help but ask.

"There's no need for that, just follow the rhythm of the organizers." Mori Kogoro waved his hand and replied casually: "Anyway, this is a group activity, even if we go in first, there will be no special prompts......

"Then take this opportunity, I'll go to the store next door and buy some drinks for everyone!" Maolilan suggested with a smile.

Attracted by the government's plan, there are many shops on this rice flower Edo street, selling all kinds of snacks.

In keeping with the theme of Edo Town, even the clerks in the shops wore different styles of kimonos, as if they had really traveled back in time to the Edo period.

"Well, then I'll trouble Xiaolan for you."

While a few people were standing outside the tower talking, more and more guests who had solved the puzzle were walking towards the street behind them.

Over time, most of the guests flocked here, and the few who didn't make it were probably halfway to other parts of Edo Street.

Since it was not mandatory for all guests to participate in this event, Xue Ding, who was in charge of the event, also walked out of the crowd after waiting for about the time when everyone arrived.

She stood in front of the clock tower, holding a large horn in her hand, and shouted to the crowd:

"Attention everyone! Attention! We have now arrived at the location designated by the first puzzle, which is the clock tower, the tallest building in our Edo street!

Now, join me inside the clock tower and get ready to take on the next puzzle and catch the abominable thief with your own hands! Be careful not to be attacked by strange thieves? ”

As the words of Xue Dingding fell, everyone entered the clock tower through the main entrance.

The area inside the tower is not very large, but it is more than enough to accommodate dozens of people.

"Good! Here we go! Damn the Monster Thief! Let's get caught! ”

"Huh? It's strange that the thief isn't here......"

However, there is no such thing as the Clock Tower, except for a large screen in front of the staircase leading to the upper floor.

"Buzz."

With the sound of electricity, the screen suddenly lit up, and a picture appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"What is this?"

"It's all brick houses, it looks like an ancient place?"

"Somewhere in Edo Street, right? The image is not very clear......"

"But there's a river and a stone bridge on the screen......"

While everyone was discussing with each other, a male figure suddenly appeared in the picture, wearing a cloak, a top hat, and a mask on his face...... It was clear that he was the man who played the strange thief.

"Hey, hey, hey? Can you hear me? Well, it seems to be fine......"

Standing beside the stone bridge in the picture, the strange thief clenched his fists and coughed dryly, and continued to say in that frivolous and pretentious tone:

"So, how many people have come to this clock tower? Oh, it's a shame not to be able to see the brave ones with your own eyes......"

"Humph! Sure enough, it's you! Belt Monster Thief! Are we still a step too late? ”

With an angry expression on his face, Xue Ding was about to point to the strange thief on the screen and shouted, "Wait there for me!" We'll be over there to catch you in a moment! ”

"Oh? If you tell me to wait, will I have to wait? ”

The thief put his hands in his pockets and made a deep expression.

"However, in order to continue our game without suspense, I would like to give you a little more hint......

"Huh?"

"Next, I will leave another code in the place where I stand, and whoever can solve this code will have the opportunity to directly confront me.

Of course, this time the code is not as easy to crack as before! How many people will come to me in the end? Just let me wait and see! Hahahaha! ”

With a wild laugh, the picture on the screen was interrupted.

At this time, Xue Ding also turned to look at the people in the tower, with a lovely smile on his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, did you hear what you just said? The thief seems to have left the last hint in the place in the picture just now, so let's rush over to it!

Don't worry, I'll follow you when everyone decides on a place! Of course, I won't give a hint, right? ”

"It's easy!"

Sonoko Suzuki clicked on the navigation software and found the icon of a bridge on it.

"The stone bridge appeared on the screen just now, and the strange thief must be at the location of the glasses bridge in Edo Street!"

The Glasses Bridge, the only stone bridge in Rice Flower Edo Street, is named after the two arches under the bridge that reflect off the water and form a pattern that resembles glasses.

"The name is really casual enough......" Mori Kogoro looked at the introduction on the navigation software and couldn't help but complain.

There is no difficulty in this, basically as long as you carefully look at the map on the navigation software, you can judge the location of the monster thief on the screen.

"That's amazing! Worthy of everyone! I found the location of the thief so quickly! Then next! Let's set off towards the Spectacle Bridge together! Xue must laugh and exclaim.

With her shouting, everyone left the clock tower and walked towards the location on the navigation in twos and threes.
