The shrine where the murder occurred just now is not too far from the Suzuki Art Museum.
A few people quickly drove to the entrance of the art museum.
After getting off the car, Suzuki Sonoko breathed in the police-concentrated air, stretched, turned to look at a few classmates: "I remember there is a small bar in the reception room, let's go have something to drink to refresh ourselves."
——After all, I have to stay up late tonight to watch Jiang Xia and Kidd fight over her... family treasure. How can I do it without being energetic?
Several female high school students walked to the reception room chatting and laughing.
Jiang Xia also followed. After walking a few steps, he suddenly heard movement at the door.
He was startled, turned around and saw Conan and Hattori Heiji entering the yard while chatting about something.
Jiang Xia thought for a while, stopped and waited in the corridor.
…
Conan and Hattori Heiji returned to the exhibition hall and saw a police car leaving.
Although there were many police cars coming and going here, Hattori Heiji was still keenly aware that something was wrong: "The driver in the police car just now seemed familiar? Why does he look so much like the Otaki Police Department?"
Conan looked back at the direction of the police car and was silent for a moment.
He actually didn't see anything just now, he wasn't tall enough.
Fortunately, we can still guess: "Could it be that Jiang Xia and the others encountered another case, so they came back in a police car after finishing the case."
"Impossible!" Hattori Heiji didn't want to admit that his trip was in vain and he didn't catch Kidd and missed the case. "They must have been tired from wandering outside and happened to meet someone familiar with the police department, so they asked someone to send them back.
——Tsk, this guy Heye always abuses police power like this."
Conan: "..." You seem to have commanded the police and police cars a lot.
As they were talking, someone suddenly approached and stopped in front of them.
The two of them were startled, then raised their heads and saw the person clearly: "Jiang Xia?"
Jiang Xia looked them over: "How are you doing there? Did you successfully capture Kidd?"
Hattori Heiji's eyes twitched. He felt a little embarrassed and didn't want to bring up this topic.
Conan was very communicative as always and shook his head: "No."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh: "On the way back, we suddenly had an inspiration - I guess the 'twelfth word' in the second sentence of the notice refers to the twelfth word in the first line.
The character 'へ', when placed on the dial, is 'seven-twenty'.
"In addition, the third sentence of the notice said that he 'will appear in the shining tower.' Hattori said that this should not refer to the castle tower, but to Tsutenkaku."
Tsutenkaku is a landmark building in Osaka. It looks like a very tall tower. At night, the main building at the top of it lights up, and the lights have different colors every month. In addition, it sometimes temporarily changes the color of the lights.
Remind citizens of some urgent matters. For example, use red when alert is needed, yellow when need to be reminded, and green when returning to normal.
In addition to the main lights, the lights on the top column of Tsutenkaku will also change different colors to predict the weather for the next day - white represents sunny days, red represents cloudy days, blue represents rainy days, and if there are two different
The combination of colors, such as blue above + red below, means the rain will turn overcast.
"There is a clock-like dial on the top of Tsutenkaku tower, which can correspond to the 'clock' in the previous sentence. In addition, the lights that change every day are more in line with the 'I will appear from the shining pavilion.'"
Flash'. That should be where he's going to appear."
Jiang Xia nodded congratulatingly: "It's a reasonable guess."
Conan touched his chin and frowned, thinking: "It's a pity that when I went to take a look, there was no one at Tongten Pavilion, and then we were kicked off by the staff - Kidd couldn't be late. There must be something wrong with this reasoning.
Something went wrong."
Jiang Xia: "..." In fact, there is no problem anywhere, it's just that Kidd stayed away for a while under the advice of some people.
"So that's it." But it's not easy to talk about this kind of thing to the victim, so Jiang Xia turned to talk about other happy things, "We are not idle here either, we just solved a complicated and interesting case.
I also met my former assistant.”
Hattori Heiji:"……?"
...While their trip was in vain, Jiang Xia was actually happily solving the case. Damn it, how could this guy be so lucky!
"..." No, when it comes to a case, it seems like luck shouldn't be used to describe it.
Hattori Heiji silently changed the word in his mind: - Why is this guy's physique so strong!
Conan also felt sad for a while, and gradually felt that something was not right.
He blurted out: "Previous assistant?!"
While speaking, a huge silhouette flashed in Conan's mind: "Could this assistant you are talking about be..."
Soon, he heard the answer he least wanted to hear:
Jiang Xia said casually: "By the way, you have seen him before, that is Mr. Yamada - we saw him near the crime scene.
"Speaking of it, it was really a false alarm. It was dark around the shrine at that time, and we almost thought he was the murderer of the case, because when we arrived, the murderer had just escaped from the crime scene, and Yamada was nearby. Fortunately, later
It turns out he was just passing through."
Conan: "..." No, no, no, he might really be the murderer!!
Although Jiang Xia will not make mistakes in reasoning, if the organization behind Vodka threatens the murderer, or uses some other method to guide the occurrence of the case, it will be difficult for the detective to find out what is going on behind the scenes.
For that terrible organization, I'm afraid it's not that difficult.
When it comes to the Black Organization, Conan can't relax.
Countless thoughts ran through his mind in an instant: What is the purpose of vodka?! At this time, he suddenly came to Osaka. Could it be that he was also eyeing the Egg of Memory?
Conan: "..." But what's the point of an organization asking for a delicate golden egg?
And why did he use the so-called "assistant" identity to appear next to Jiang Xia?
A series of questions flashed through his mind. Conan looked at Jiang Xia and hesitated: "Um, has anyone invited you to join any strange organization recently?"
Jiang Xia was startled, as if he remembered something because of this question.
"Really?!" Conan was shocked and grabbed him... He originally wanted to grab his collar to show the importance and urgency of the matter, but he couldn't reach it.
So he had no choice but to grab Jiang Xia's arm: "Don't go!"
"I didn't go. I have already rejected those clients who invited me." Jiang Xia seemed a little embarrassed and sighed, "The organization of 'Ladies' Afternoon Tea' is not suitable for me no matter how you look at it. And
What's the 'popcorn cat group'? Although I often help them find cats, I don't have a cat at home," at least I don't have a cat to feed. "It's hard to insert it..."
