While explaining the witnesses of elementary school students to Officer Takagi, Officer Takagi also learned about and told Kaedehara that their victim, Mr. Hosokoshi, had regained consciousness after the operation.

It is worth mentioning that Mr. Hosokoshi was reluctant to say who the person who stabbed him was at first, but hoped that the person would turn himself in. He wasn't willing to open his mouth until he learned that the case had been solved.

This is clearly a story of revenge.

But in any case, the case ended and the Junior Detectives managed to restore their reputation.

A few more days passed without incident.

"By the way, wasn't that big brother already a seven-time champion last time? Why do you have to compete? Yuan Tai said curiously.

Walking in the alley, because they had just seen the news of a shogi match on a public screen in a building, the young detectives talked about it.

And the big brother in Motota's mouth refers to the celebrity Haneda Hideyoshi they have seen and acquainted with in several incidents before, and he enters the final battle of the day with 3 wins and 3 losses, and is in the middle of the match.

"That's why the news says it's defending the title..."

"What is defending your title?" Motota looked at Kaedehara puzzled.

"It's a re-election championship, Genta." Mitsuhiko helped explain.

"There are seven major title battles in professional shogi," Conan said, "Today's battle is a battle of kings, and last time it was a celebrity battle, and Haneda celebrity won the title of celebrity last time and achieved seven crowns..."

"Ahh Is that the day we went together to save the sister who drove the mini patrol car? Ayumi asked.

A few weeks ago, Hideyoshi Haneda's girlfriend Yumi Miyamoto was kidnapped, and the Junior Detective Team met Hideyoshi Haneda, who asked for a long exam and temporarily left the competition, and together with him, they unlocked the code given by the prisoner and found the prisoner and Yumi Miyamoto.

"yes, that's it," said Grayplain.

"But it's a coincidence, just talking about her," Kaedehara looked not far away, "and I met it." ”

They turned a corner as they spoke, and then Kaedehara noticed two familiar figures in front of them.

The others followed Kaedehara's line of sight and saw Officer Sato and Officer Yumi Miyamoto of the Department of Transportation standing by a garbage dump near an apartment building, seemingly looking for something.

Motota, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi faintly smelled the smell of the incident and hurriedly ran forward, and Kaedehara and the others also quickened their pace to follow.

"What are you doing here?"

"Is there any case?"

Hearing the voices of the elementary school students, Officer Sato and Officer Yumi Miyamoto both looked back in some surprise.

However, Yumi Miyamoto didn't seem to be in a good mood right now, and she seemed a little impatient, but Officer Sato kindly bent over and answered their questions to the elementary school students.

"yes!" Officer Sato said, "Yumi, she threw away very important things as garbage!" ”

"Mi, Miwako..."

"Oh..."

"You're not stupid!" Motota looked at Yumi Miyamoto, "Don't throw away important things!" ”

"Oh, I said it was accidental..."

"Did you accidentally put it in a garbage bag?" Gray Plains asked.

"I tucked it up in a fashion magazine, bundled it up with other magazines and threw it away."

"Yumi, you're really sloppy," Officer Sato complained.

"I don't want to be told about it!"

"But today isn't the day to throw out recyclables?" Conan looked at the sign on the dump, which said the schedule for throwing out all kinds of garbage.

"Huh? Is it? ”

"yes. So, even if you put that bundle of magazines here, Sister Yumi, you won't be taken away," Kaedehara took Conan's words, "But now that bundle of magazines isn't here..."

"In other words, it is possible that the administrator of this apartment will take it to another place for safekeeping, right? If you find out that Sister Yumi threw it out, maybe put it back in front of Sister Yumi's house..."

Conan's words fell, and Yumi Miyamoto immediately ran towards her door. The others also hurried to follow.

When they went upstairs and came to the door of Yumi Miyamoto's room, they saw the bundle of magazines at a glance.

"Found it! That's great! Yumi Miyamoto breathed a sigh of relief.

"The serious administrator also put a piece of paper on it," Officer Sato said, looking at the bundle of magazines, "and it says recyclable garbage is going to be thrown away on Tuesday..."

Yumi Miyamoto immediately rummaged through the magazine.

"But," Mitsuhiko was a little curious, "how did the administrator know that this was the garbage thrown by Yumi's sister?" ”

"If he'd been an administrator for a long time, he would have known," Conan explained, "based on the magazines that the building's residents often bought." Whoever mixes fashion magazines and mahjong magazines is probably only Yumi's sister..."

"And looking at Yumi's sister," Kaedehara added, "it's certainly not the first time I've thrown out garbage at the wrong time." If the administrator is so serious, I don't think there will be many people who will make a mistake after being reminded..."

So it's not hard to think that it's Yumi Miyamoto's garbage.

There weren't many magazines in the bundle, so they didn't go up to help Yumi Miyamoto, but just watched her rummage.

Yumi Miyamoto looked directly at the magazine to see if there was a mezzanine, and then casually threw the magazine she had found aside. But soon, she showed a very annoyed expression.

"Nope! Can't find it! I can't find it anywhere! ”

"What the hell are you looking for?" Mitsuhiko couldn't help but ask her.

"100 million yen!" Yumi Miyamoto turned around and shouted.

"Huh!?"

"She's bookmarking a very important envelope in a fashion magazine," Officer Sato explained.

"Ah," Gray Hara looked up at Officer Sato, "it's the envelope with the marriage application, right?" ”

"Well, well, it should be..."

"Gray Plains, how do you know?" Kaedehara was a little curious.

"Ah, it turns out that there are areas that you are not familiar with..."Gray Yuan looked at Kaedehara, a little proud, "It's intuition." ”

"Intuition..."

"Could it be that another woman picked it up, wrote her name in the wife's column, and handed it over to the Civil Affairs Bureau?" Mitsuhiko guessed.

"No, it won't!"

"If the husband is that Taiko celebrity," Ai Gray Hara agreed with Mitsuhiko's words, "It's normal for people who pick it up to be excited..."

"And that's 100 million yen," Kaedehara added.

"What!?"

"Anyway, let's go to the administrator first!" Conan suggested, "Maybe he found out that it was an important envelope and kept it for you?" ”

There is no other way, Miyamoto Yumi is as good as flowing. Soon they were outside the Administrator's room. Yumi Miyamoto went to ring the doorbell and expressed her intentions.

The people in the room also responded immediately.

"Here we go!" The answer to the door was an elderly man about seventy years old, "You're finally here, Cha Cha!" ”

"Cha Cha?" Yuan Tai wondered.

"I think it refers to the Asai Chacha Bar, which is the side room of Hideyoshi Toyoda," Kaedehara explained in a low voice, "Judging by the attitude of that old man, he seems to have some opinions about Yumi's sister and Haneda's celebrity relationship..."

Speaking of which, Kaedehara himself is not sure what his attitude is towards the relationship between Akemi's sister and Shuichi Akai...

At the same time, Yumi Miyamoto, who was in front, crossed her waist and expressed her dissatisfaction to the administrator, Mr. Tororoku Hatsuka: "Didn't you say that you should not call me like that?" Sounds uncomfortable..."

"What do you mean?" Police Sato apparently didn't hear what Kaedehara had just said.

"I don't know! When Stinkyoshi came to my house to play, he happened to run into the administrator..."Yumi Miyamoto looked at Mr. Yatsuka unhappily, "Since then, he has been calling me Chacha..."

"Aren't you just a vicious woman who made Taige lose her ambition?"

"Grandpa, do you like shogi too?" Conan asked.

"yes, I'm a professional! "More than ten years ago, at an event in the mall, I invited a professional junior high school chess player, and I went to participate.

I was fascinated by his crisp and neat chess style, and I am a huge admirer of Taiko celebrities until now! Every time he wins the championship, I am as happy as if I won the championship myself, and I live a leisurely life like this..."

"Until I was caught by this Chacha," he said, and he looked at Yumi Miyamoto again.

"Catch?"

"This uncle used to be a habitual pickpocket!" Yumi Miyamoto explained to Officer Sato, "I tried to steal my wallet from the train, but I grabbed it and threw it directly into the police station... He didn't have a job after he was released from prison, so I introduced him here to be the caretaker of this apartment! ”

"Oh, that's it..."

"Tell me more than that!" Yumi Miyamoto urges Mr. Yatsuka, "Caught in the magazine I threw away as garbage today..."

"Ahh

Mr. Yatsuka took out his phone, and showed a photo of it to Yumi Miyamoto. Kaedehara also looked over curiously and found that the photo was indeed a marriage application with Hideyoshi Haneda's name written on it.

"You're looking for this, aren't you?" Mr. Yatsuka asked.

"Y-Did you read the contents of the envelope!?"

"What does it matter? Didn't you throw away the garbage? ”

"Bad old man! Hurry up and give it back to me! My marriage application! ”

"Huh?" Mr. Yatsuka pretended to be thoughtful, "Where did I put it?" he glanced back at the room inside, "I guess it's in the room inside, right?" I don't have a good memory lately..."

"Get out of the way!" Yumi Miyamoto walked in impatiently and bumped into Mr. Yatsuka, who was deliberately blocking the door, "I'll find it myself!" ”

She pushed the door open and walked into the room inside.

Mr. Yatsuka doesn't seem to mind this, and he doesn't even mind that the Junior Detectives will follow in. So Kaedehara and the others also walked into this room with little space.

It's a bedroom compactly furnished with a bed, a set of tables and chairs, and a bookcase. There was also a laptop on the table, and Kaedehara could hear that it was still running, but he just closed the lid.

When he walked into the room, Yumi Miyamoto, who had come in first, had already opened the drawer of the table and looked at it, "Hey, hey! It's not on the table or in the drawers! ”

"I guess it's in this room," Mr. Yatsuka said.

"Won't you just go back and wait for him to find it?"

"Yes, yes..."Yumi Miyamoto felt that Officer Sato was right.

"You don't have time to hesitate." Mr. Hatsuka continued, "On the marriage application, the husband's occupation column says chess player and seven-time champion - that requires extraordinary awareness and determination! ”

"Yes, yes?"

But in this battle between the kings and generals, the Taige celebrities fell into a bitter battle, and the reason is probably this marriage application. In an interview with a magazine, he accidentally said that my most important person has not yet answered, and now is really not the time to play chess. That is to say—"

Mr. Yatsuka paused and re-showed the photo on his phone to Yumi Miyamoto.

"-If Taige fails to defend his title in the battle of kings and generals like this, this marriage application with the seven crowns written on it will be invalid!"

"Huh?"

"Then call him now!" Officer Sato hurriedly said to Yumi Miyamoto, "Tell him - let's get married!" ”

"What!?"

"It's useless, the chess players in the game don't have mobile phones. The only chance to meet him is to take a break from the competition site for lunch. If Cha Cha shows up there with the marriage application, he will be able to gain the power of ten thousand jun, and no matter what kind of opponent he is, he can defeat it..."

Mr. Yatsuka said, looking at his watch again, "It's still an hour before the lunch break. ”

"You must know where the envelope is, right?" Yumi Miyamoto said loudly to Mr. Yatsuka, "Where the hell is it?" Where are you hiding? ”

"Then you can show me your enlightenment!"

"Enlightenment, enlightenment?"

"That is, no matter what happens, you will follow the enlightenment of Taige celebrities! As long as you have such a firm belief, you can find an envelope or two in no time! ”

Yumi Miyamoto was a little stunned, and Officer Sato and the elementary school students were also a little incomprehensible. But soon they heard other voices coming from the side.

"Could this be it?" Conan asked.

When he came in, he happened to see Kaedehara looking at the computer, so he looked over as well, and the computer seemed to be a bit old-fashioned, and even he could hear the sound of it running when it was stationary, so he curiously opened the closed lid of the computer.

On the screen is an interface to enter the password.

"It's written here, please enter an 8-digit password!" Conan continued, "And it says [Yodo-kun input only]! ”

"Who is Yodo-kun?" Ayumi said curiously.

"It's Taiko Hideyoshi's wife, it's Chacha." Gray Plains replied.

"But what number are you going to enter?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"As long as you try this one by one, you can always try it!"

"It's an eight-digit password," Kaedehara said, "If you try them one by one, when you try them out, let alone the competition, Sister Yumi may have already married a Haneda celebrity..."

"yes!" Yumi Miyamoto nodded, not hiding at all that she wanted to marry Hideyoshi Haneda, which was completely different from how Kaedehara behaved when they saw her with Hideyoshi Haneda before.

"And it says you can't make a mistake," Conan added.

"In other words, if you lose wrong once, you won't be able to open again?"

"So what the hell are we going to do?"

"It's very simple, just find the eight numbers hidden in this room, and then let Sister Yumi enter this computer, you can know the location of the envelope." Conan looked at Mr. Yatsuka, "That's it, right?" Bad-hearted old man? ”

"yes, yes..."

"In that case, let's split up!"

"Yay!"

The elementary school students immediately searched for them, and Officer Sato and Yumi Miyamoto then joined the battlefield. Mr. Yatsuka didn't care at all about his room being rummaged through, on the contrary, he was in a good mood.

Soon, Motota searched for a very empty trash can and found a somewhat strange piece of paper.

It's a boxy piece of paper, full of strange patterns made up of various minimalist lines. The junior detectives each took a picture and remembered, and Yumi Miyamoto held the original.

"Hey, hey... What is this? Yumi Miyamoto said, "I don't have a clue at all!" ”

"It's okay," Grayplain comforted, "This code is very similar to the dancing villain in Sherlock Holmes's story..."

She said as she looked at Kaedehara, "And we have two super Sherlock Holmes fans here, it must be..."

Her words didn't go on.

Things weren't quite what she thought.

She saw that Kaede Yuan was indeed looking at the photo of the piece of paper she had just taken on her phone, but she was frowning slightly.

He rarely expresses his emotions so bluntly...

And—

In the sight of Gray Yuan, Kaedehara raised his hand and pressed his own temple.

He suddenly had some headaches, physical headaches.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? You okay? Gray Yuan Wai hurriedly walked to Kaedehara's side and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay..."Kaede Yuan hesitated for a moment and shook his head slightly, "I just felt a sudden stinging in my head... It's okay now..."

Gray Yuan Wai is still a little worried.

But at this time, Ayumi and the others had already come to them curiously, and she didn't want to say anything more.

"Can't even Conan and Kaedehara untie it?" Mitsuhiko asked.

Hearing Mitsuhiko's words, Gray Yuan looked at Kaedehara again, and then looked at Conan, noticing Conan's tangled expression...

But Conan didn't look like he had a headache.

"Really?" Yuan Tai was surprised.

"Is it that hard?" Ayumi was also a little surprised.

"yes," Kaedehara replied, "I don't have a clue at all... And Conan is better at this kind of thing than I am..."

Conan gave Kaedehara an angry look, then grabbed his hair, and then looked at the photo on his phone.

He didn't even know if it was numbers, words, or graphics.
