"It's Kyoto!"

"Kyoto is the hometown of the Japanese!"

Walking out of the station, excited elementary school students looked around.

"Thanks to the Doctor, we're here..."

"Ahem," Dr. Asasa cleared his throat with his fist to his mouth, "in that case, I'll give you another puzzle." ”

"Huh? Is it coming again? ”

"Doctor, you already went out once the day before yesterday!"

"Motota, Mitsuhiko," Ayumi whispered, "just listen to the doctor again, right?" He must have thought about it for a long time to come up with it..."

Gray Yuan Ai stood next to the doctor, listened to the whispers of the elementary school students, and then yawned, and listened to the doctor's riddle with the real elementary school students.

"Listen," said the Doctor, "you all know that Sora and Conan love to play ball, right?" ”

"It's football! We love it too! ”

"Actually," the doctor pretended to be mysterious, "and the two of them love to sing—"

"Huh? Are you sure? ”

"I've never heard them sing!"

Like Ayumi and the others, Gray Hara was also a little surprised. She hadn't heard Kaedehara or Conan sing, and she lived under the same roof as Kaedehara, and she didn't find Kaedehara's hobby of singing...

Speaking of which, in the last Belmore incident, Kaede Hara had mentioned to her that he and Conan had an absolute sense of tone...

"Just for the assumption of the riddle!" The doctor explained, "That's it, anyway! So the question is, which is their favorite place? One, Osaka; 2. Tokyo; Or three, Kyoto? ”

"Ahh I know, it's Tokyo, right? Ayumi immediately raised her hand happily, "Because we're all here!" Ayumi also likes to be where she has friends! ”

"That's right!"

"But it's a doctor's joke, Ayumi..."Mitsuhiko hesitated.

"Uhhhh Although the answer was different from what he thought, he was a little embarrassed to deny Ayumi's words.

Noticing this, Gray Yuan looked at the somewhat embarrassed doctor with interest, "Ah, doctor, it seems that you have gotten rid of it." ”

"Ahem, wrong answer!" The doctor was ruthless, and then cast a look at Gray Yuan Ai for help, "That, Xiao Ai..."

"Huh? Isn't that right? Ayumi was a little disappointed.

"Don't take it personally," Gray Yuan glared at the doctor, still choosing to help him out, "It's just a boring puzzle." The answer is Kyoto. ”

"But why?"

"I don't understand it at all!"

"Because there is a song in Kyoto based on the name of the town, the children in Kyoto can sing it, and it is called the ball song."

Gray Yuan explained that she only found out when she helped Kaedehara check the information yesterday, and the doctor probably also knew this when he checked the Kyoto tour guide with her, "The doctor also deliberately said that they like to play football, not to say that they like to play football..."

"Because it's not a thing at all..."Mitsuhiko couldn't help but shrink back, "It's really cold..."

Although they were getting used to it, Motota and Ayumi looked at the doctor speechlessly.

"Alright, don't stand here," Gray Hara urged, "it's going to stand in the way of others..."

"Oh..."

"I'm looking forward to it today~" Ayumi moved together, "I must want to see Kaedehara, right?" ”

Gray Yuan Ai glanced at Ayumi with a little surprise, and Ayumi's expression looked quite happy.

She had actually noticed that Ayumi had a slight affection for Kaedehara, but an elementary school student was an elementary school student after all...

"yes." Gray Plains replied calmly.

“… Huh? ”

The elementary school students looked at Ashbara in some surprise, even Dr. Asasa.

"Who let him and Edogawa leave us and come to Kyoto," Ashbara continued, "What? Don't you want to see their surprised looks when we suddenly appear in front of them? ”

"yes!"

"They're going to be amazed!"

The elementary school students suddenly realized, re-understood the meaning of Gray Yuan's lamentation, and looked forward to it.

Then they heard a familiar voice coming from behind them.

"I don't think Conan was a surprise at best, not to the point of being surprised."

The group subconsciously turned around and saw a familiar figure standing behind them with his hands in his pockets.

"Kaede, Kaedehara..."

"It's really funny," Kaedehara blinked, "to see your surprised expressions..."

"Sora! How do you know we're here? ”

"Because Doctor, you will definitely bring everyone with you when you come to Kyoto," Kaedehara explained, and then looked at Ayumi and them, "And with your temperament, you will definitely hurry..."

"Huh? What a foul..."

"We thought we'd surprise you both..."

"However, Conan should still be out looking into the case now," Kaedehara said, "Shall I take you to Sannoji Temple first?" I lived there with Uncle Maori. ”

Because it was difficult to take a taxi due to the large number of people, elementary school students also wanted to experience Kyoto's public transportation, so they took the train to Sannoji Temple.

On the way, Gray Yuan whispered to Kaede Yuan, "I'm not as easy to handle as they are - you just didn't explain why you knew we came here today... Because I almost slipped out on the phone? ”

"There is also a reason why your reply to yesterday's message was too simple."

He deliberately didn't mention it so that the "reasons" would not be all on Gray Yuan's mourning, even though the elementary school students didn't really care about it.

Yesterday, Gray Yuan Wai completed the comparison, and didn't find anything related to the pattern in the painting, so he replied to the message with his mobile phone, but it was just a simple statement that there was no result.

"It's not like you, you usually bring up your own thoughts..."Kaede Yuan glanced at the schoolbag that Gray Yuan was carrying, "So I thought, maybe you want to talk about it after we meet today... Thanks. ”

"You still have a case to work on, right? Don't you use your reasoning skills where they should be used? ”

"That's where it should be," Kaedehara held up the unopened cup of drink in his hand, which he bought with Motota when he wanted to drink water, "And, thanks to you, I already have some ideas..."

……

On the other side, Harutaro Mizuo's house.

Heiji Hattori and Conan come here to investigate the situation.

Mizuo's house is full of Noh masks, and to their slight surprise, Ryuen and Saijo Taiga are also here.

"You were attacked after that?" After a moment, Long Yuan asked in surprise.

"That's why I'm here to take the liberty of coming here," Hattori Heiji looked at Harutaro Mizuo, "and ask for Mr. Mizuo's alibi, because the murderer is wearing an old man's Noh mask." ”

"The old man's mask?"

"Hmm. By the way, I would like to ask for the alibi of Mr. Saijo and Mr. Tatsuen, is it convenient? ”

"Do we want it too?"

"Nerve-wracking," said Saijo Taiga, "we were here to discuss Mr. Sakura's murderer with the four of them..."

"Oh..."

“… All right. ”

Mizuo was the first to talk about his whereabouts last night, "After I left the teahouse last night, I went straight back to sleep. But I'm still single, and my mom is some distance from my room, so I can't prove if I've been at home since then..."

"I'm in the same situation as him," said Saijo Taiga, the second to speak, "because I live alone on the second floor of the shop on Teramachi Road." ”

"After I read the scriptures in the main hall for a while, I went back to my room and went to sleep, so I had no witnesses." Long Yuan said.

"Well," Hattori thought for a moment, "then let me ask you again, are the three of you practicing bows and arrows?" ”

"Do you say bows and arrows?" Saijo Taiga replied, "No. ”

"I once pulled the Azusa bow on the stage of a Noh theater called Maple Leaf Appreciation."

"I've also imitated drawing a bow to exorcise demons, but I haven't really practiced the kung fu of bows and arrows..."

"Then do you know if any of the people in the teahouse at that time could draw bows and arrows?" Conan asked.

"So, Yamakura seems..."

"Huh? Are you saying that Ms. Yamakura practiced bowing and arrows? Hattori looked at Saijo Taiga, and Ms. Yamakura was the proprietress of the tea house, "But she wasn't there at the time, was she?" ”

"It's not..."

"Excuse me." Just then, the gate was opened, and a young woman in a yellow kimono walked in.

"Ah, she's coming..."

The person who came was Miss Rei Chiga.

However, she changed her dress and looked like a dancer, and Conan and Hattori Heiji couldn't recognize it at the first time.

Hattori Heiji leaned out to look at Qianhe Ling, slightly distracted.

Next, the few of them discussed the killing of Sakura Masazo last night, but there was nothing to gain, and the group quickly took their own leave.

There is no other place to collect clues for the time being, Hattori Heiji and Conan are preparing to return to Sannoji Temple, and Chiga Ling and them will take a while.

"Actually, Sannoji Temple is on Rokkaku Road," Senga Rei said, "We're passing through Ikawa Road right now..."

After a pause, she sang a short song to recall the route, "Marutake Iji, Oshimiike, sister Rokkaku... So it should be on the sixth road..."

"Huh?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly stunned.

When he met his first love eight years ago, he was standing under the cherry blossom tree, slapping the ball and singing the song.

"Sister, what song was that just now?" Conan asked.

"Well, we call it the ball song here, and it's a song that turns the names of Kyoto's roads from north to south..."

……

"Marutake Yiji, Oshigoike, sister Rokkaku, Koshiki, four aya Buddha Takamatsuman, five snow boots, jingle dang fish rack, walk through six streets and seven streets, after eight streets is the East Temple Road, through nine streets you will arrive..."

"Gray Plains, you're singing awesome!" Ayumi exclaimed, and the others agreed.

"Thank you." After singing, Gray Yuan Wai stood back to the side.

Because of the Doctor's sneering jokes, they curiously learned about the ball song, and then walked down the road and sang it in turns.

"Then it's Genta's turn next..."

"Huh?" Yuantai took a sip of the juice and wiped her mouth, before she sang without any key, "Marutake Yiji, Oshigoike, Bride Rokkaku..."

"It's my sister's hexagon, Yuantai..."

Kaedehara chuckled.

But although no one else noticed, Gray Yuan Ai suddenly found out, "Ah, you seem to be very happy..."

"I just happened to think of something funny..."

Kaedehara had just explained, and Yuantai over there had already finished singing hastily and looked at him, "Then it's Kaedehara's turn next!" ”

Also because of the doctor's sneering jokes, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Ash Hara all looked at Kaedehara with curiosity and expectation.

Kaedehara hesitated, "Otherwise, I'd better forget it, right?" ”

"No!"

"It's okay, everybody has to sing!"

“… All right. ”

There was no way, Kaede had no choice but to sing.

……

On the way back to Sannoji Temple, Heiji Hattori receives a call from Officer Otaki.

From the phone call, he learned that the knife left by the man who attacked him last night had a small amount of blood with the same blood type as Mr. Sakura's blood type, and the knife shape also matched Mr. Sakura's wound.

"In this way, I can be sure that the person who attacked me is the murderer of Mr. Sakura."

"If that's the case," replied Conan, "then the four men who had no way to dispose of the murder weapon should not be the murderers." ”

As they spoke, they came to the back gate of Sannoji Temple, where a cherry blossom tree stood, where Hattori Heiji met his first love eight years ago.

Heiji Hattori was slightly distracted, lost in memory, and then interrupted by a voice next to him.

"Ah, it's Conan! What are you doing? ”

"Why are you here?" Conan looked at it in surprise.

As Kaedehara said, I wasn't so surprised... Ayumi thought to herself, and then replied, "We got Dr. Asasa right, so he brought us here." ”

"You and Kaedehara are too cunning..."

"That's right..."

Motota and Mitsuhiko complained weakly, and Conan noticed the Doctor, Kaedehara, and Gray Hara, who were walking behind.

"This guy Kaedehara was originally looking to be with you, I thought he was secretly investigating the case... But then again, you all look listless..."

It's still morning, and elementary school students should have just arrived in Kyoto, so they should be full of energy.

However, at this time, except for Ayumi, who seemed to be a little energetic after meeting him, everyone else's expressions were a little melancholy, and even the face of Gray Hara, who was standing with Kaedehara, was a little ugly...

This is not normal...

"Because Kaedehara sings so badly!" Mitsuhiko was unceremonious, and Gray Yuan nodded in agreement, "I never thought that someone would sing so badly..."

"I didn't expect that there would be something you're not good at..."Gray Yuan glanced at Kaedehara.

"I don't sing," Kaedehara argued.

"Hey," Conan, who understood the reason, helped to defend himself, "I think I can still sing..."

"What are you talking about, Conan, we're talking about Kaedehara!"

"I'm not talking about you!"

"Yes, yes..."

"Oh, so you're singing while walking?" Hattori interjected, "It's pretty interesting." ”

"It's a ball song!" Ayumi looked at her dark-skinned brother, "The doctor said that all children in Kyoto can sing..."

"Ball song?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly stunned.

It's not that he forgot the name, it's just that he just sang it in front of him, and he happens to be two years older than him, and he now thinks that Qianhe Ling is the first love he met eight years ago.

"yes, we just learned it today!" Saying that, Ayumi also sang a paragraph, "Marutake Yiji..."

"It's really amazing, I just learned to sing so well..."

"Gray Yuan and Mitsuhiko also sing very well! Yuantai, he can't always remember words..."

As for Kaedehara, don't mention it.

"Because it's so hard to remember!" Yuan Tai argued.

"Yuantai, he always sings his sister's hexagon as the bride's hexagon..."

"Poof—"

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Conan suddenly laughed, and even continued to hold his stomach and laugh.

"Conan, you're too much! It's just a misreciprocal word—"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you, Motota, I just happened to think of something funny..."

Gray Yuan glanced at Kaedehara.

Conan and Kaedehara both laughed at this time, and even the reason for the explanation was exactly the same...

Is there something you don't know about?

And because it was not easy to explain, although Kaede Yuan noticed Gray Yuan's gaze, he did not have the idea of taking the initiative to explain for the time being.

On the other side, Hattori Heiji, who had been staring at Conan suspiciously for a while, remembered something, his face darkened suddenly, and he directly pulled Conan to the side, and brought Kaedehara with him.

"Hey, Kudo," Hattori Heiji asked, "You guys aren't thinking about rudeness, are you?" ”

"How so!" Conan decisively denied it, but he still couldn't help but laugh and explained to Kaedehara, "This guy Hattori said that his first love was also wrong in the first place..."

"Oh... So, Yuan Tai is your first love? Kaedehara said to Hattori.

"Ah, I see! Thanks to the two of you, I've finally found my first love..."Heiji Hattori said, and then punched Conan in the head, "Stupid! ”

"It hurts, it hurts..."

The gender doesn't match, not to mention that Yuan Tai didn't even exist eight years ago. Kaedehara and Conan just couldn't help but want to laugh.

"But, Hattori," said Kaedehara, "since it's all a mistake, it's likely that the girl you met eight years ago wasn't from Kyoto, right?" Because children in Kyoto generally don't sing wrong, she should just listen to someone else sing it once, and remember it wrong..."

"Impossible! I've already determined that Miss Chiga Rei is the same person she was eight years ago..."Heiji Hattori said, and then returned to the topic, "Then again, Kudo, you didn't actually go to investigate the case, but we learned important clues..."

"Maybe I have a bugging device in your clothes?"

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, and then groped around his body.

"Stupid, such a long distance..."Conan immediately reacted that Kaedehara was joking, but was stunned for a moment as he spoke.

Looking up at Kaedehara, Conan found that Kaedehara had handed the juice in his hand in front of him, "You found it too, didn't you?" ”

"Ah, it's you..."

"Hey, Kudo, what did you find?"

"Hattori, I told you I had a bug, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Hattori Heiji was puzzled.

"The bugging and transmitter are compatible."

"Transmitter?" Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the drink in Kaedehara's hand, which Conan didn't take.

Since Kudo handed the drink to his other self to remind him, that is...

"I see! Last night, the prisoner put both the murder weapon and the transmitter into a plastic water bottle, and then threw them into the river..."

"Then we can track the water bottle to be recycled."

"Presumably a tracker used by a security company to track children..."

And that kind of tracker can be found by simply logging into the security company's website.

Thinking of this, Dr. Hattori took the children to meet Uncle Mori and others, and Heiji Hattori and Conan dragged Kaedehara to the river under the teahouse to check and determine the feasibility of this plan.

Combined with the sound of something falling into the water that both Kaedehara and Sonoko heard at the time, this means that the inference of Heiji Hattori and Conan not long ago has been overturned again, and the prisoner is most likely still one of the four.

By the time they returned to Sannoji Temple, it was already noon, and Officer Shiratori happened to be here to brief Uncle Mori and the others on the latest information.

"Rei Chiga's mother worked as a geisha in Miyagawa Town, but she fell ill and died when she was five years old. Her mother was an unwed mother, and Miss Chiga was adopted by Ms. Yamakura, the proprietress of the tea house, and raised her alone..."

"What is an unwed mother?" Genta, who was standing at the railing, asked.

"It's a woman who has children without getting married." Gray Yuan replied casually.

Hattori and Conan sat in the room and listened, and she and Kaedehara listened with the elementary school students while looking at the cherry blossom trees outside.

"I don't know who her biological father is," Officer Shiratori continued, "but every month people send money anonymously to the teahouse, but since three months ago, there has been a sudden non-return of money. ”

"Well," Uncle Maori thought, "that sounds strange..."

"But Officer Shiratori, how do you know?"

"The noble officer told you that, right?" Heiji Hattori refers to Officer Ayakoji.

"No, don't look at me like this, I'm quite famous in Gion." Officer Shiratori was a little smug, "Everyone says he's my rival, but I don't want to be compared to the guy who carries a squirrel every day. ”

"Squirrel?" Xiaolan said curiously.

"Well, he'll keep it in his pocket."

"It's good that I didn't bring the squirrel to the scene of the murder." Hattori complained that the squirrel wasn't there when Officer Ayakoji arrived at the scene last night.

At this moment, Officer Shiratori's phone rang, and he got up and went to the side to answer the phone, and on the other side of the phone was the Twilight Police Department.

The Twilight Police Department conveyed to him the latest possible situation from the Metropolitan Police Department.

Because the first three members of Genji Hotaru to die were each wearing a glove, scarf, and hat at the time, and all three of them were beige, which seemed to be a set, so under Officer Takagi's unintentional prompting, the Twilight Police Department thought that it might be dividing the relics equally.

They then speculated that one of the Yoshitsune or Benkei might have died.

Officer Shiratori relayed the news to the crowd.

Uncle Maori stood up and slapped the table excitedly.

"I see!"

Uncle Maori is obviously about to start his own reasoning.
