Chapter 101 - Finding the Needle? Blowing Soot. (I'm not dead yet!)

The next morning, the hotel's cafeteria.

"You..." Qianyu was holding two slices of bread with bacon in his mouth when he saw Kaede Hoshino walking into the restaurant calmly, looking nothing unusual. "Is everything okay?"

"If everything is completely fine, it will still take a few hours," Hoshino Kaede made a gesture of spreading his hands with his left hand. "But at least it is much better now than before. However, you can actually get used to the bread here..."

"Hell if you get used to it..." Qianyu glanced at the bread in his hand speechlessly - this was not finely ground high-quality white bread, but rye bread, and it was obviously not very high-quality.

It can leave a smell of leaven. "I feel like I'm going to be burned by St. Anthony's fire..." (It means St. Anthony's fire, which is what we now call ergotism, which is a serious disease.

It is often spread through a fungus that lives on ergot on rye and is extremely vicious. The reason why this disease is called St. Anthony's Fire is because some people were cured of the disease after making a pilgrimage to St. Anthony.

This principle is because during the pilgrimage, they will eat the same diet as the monks there, which is white bread, and the symptoms will naturally be alleviated.)

"But modern processing technology has been able to perfectly remove ergot, so you don't have to worry about this disease, right?" Conan held a dinner plate with some food and sat across from Qianyu. "Brother Hoshino, please wait a moment.

Come and sit down too, we can fill up the table with the doctor."

...

"Ignacio," while the four of them were eating, Hoshino Kaede glanced around and threw a full-length photo from his sleeve to the dining table. "German, 23 years old, able to speak English, Japanese, German and Spanish

Yu. He is 183 centimeters tall and weighs 83 kilograms. He has no special habits."

"Is this his daily photo or did you ask him to stage it?" Qianyu raised his eyebrows.

"Daily photos," Hoshino Kaede replied. "This is a natural reflection of his character."

"Quite traditional," Qianyu raised his eyebrows. "Does he have any personality traits?"

"He likes to play it safe," Hoshino Kaede put the photo back in his palm and put it back in his sleeve. "So I guess he may have found some danger, so he found a safe place to hide.

"Is it possible to monitor the place where you pick up the mail?" Qianyu raised the possibility. "That way he can see you."

"Then he should choose to contact me," Hoshino Kaede frowned slightly. "But he didn't."

"Could it be that there is no phone..." Qianyu rejected his opinion. "This is almost impossible. If he is indoors at night, he can only be in a hotel. There must be a phone in that kind of place."

"If he's not in the hotel, he must be waiting for me to arrive in a hidden place. But if that's the case, he should be able to contact me directly in person." Hoshino Kaede shook his head.

"So, he's not around there," Conan concluded. "It's more likely that he was discovered, so he couldn't protect himself. Where did you get the evidence?"

"In the grass under a sculpture," Hoshino Kaede replied. "We were supposed to meet there, but I didn't see him."

"I'm afraid, it's not that he doesn't want to come..." Qianyu frowned. "If he can't come to a place like this to wait for you, I'm afraid he won't be able to come... Is he being targeted?"

"That should be the case," Hoshino Kaede nodded. "What's even more troublesome is that he didn't tell me where he was. So now I don't even have a clue where to look for him."

"Where can he go?" Conan asked suddenly. "If he came here from Barcelona, ​​there seems to be only one flight, which is the one we saw last night..."

"!!!" Kaede Hoshino was surprised and immediately began to think. "It seems so... there is only one flight a day from Barcelona to here!"

"You mean that our informant arrived the night before yesterday?" Qianyu glanced in the direction of the entrance of the cafeteria not far away - not far outside the door is the front desk of the hotel. "At this time,

, it is very possible that he did not choose to live outside, but stayed in this airport hotel. Perhaps, we can check the front desk record."

...

"Keep it secret?" Kaede Hoshino said in disbelief. "Why? We came here just to find the friend we just mentioned. Something may have happened to him now!"

"I'm sorry," the staff explained. "We don't have a roster either. A big shot stayed in the hotel today, so the manager didn't give us the roster, but kept it in his hands."

"Big shot..." Conan thought for a moment and said thoughtfully. "Could it be..."

"Barcelona?" Qianyu also murmured.

Thinking about it this way, if the Barcelona team came to Athens via that flight last night, then staying in a hotel would definitely be the best choice - the team's forward Romario is not suitable for walking through a hotel where there may be extreme racists at night.

street.

"These guys are really haunted..." Hoshino Kaede smiled bitterly and shook his head. "What should I do now..."

"They can't always be here," Qianyu sighed - because now he can only use stupid methods. "The competition is coming soon. They must move to their hotel today, otherwise they will not have time to step on the field. Wait.

After they leave, let’s check again.”

"Sir," Conan suddenly pointed to a tray of medicine on the table and asked, "Which room are these medicines for treating fever going to be sent to?"

"Burning medicine?" Hoshino Kaede blinked before realizing Conan's thinking circuit.

If it is said that the informant did not encounter an accident - as a German, walking at night should not be dangerous, so he probably encountered some force majeure, so he could not wait for Hoshino Kaede to contact him.

One of the most likely situations is physical discomfort, and what is the most common disease that can make people incapacitated?

Of course it's a fever! This kind of disease that can occur at any time, but can cause a splitting headache and confusion, can definitely force the informant to go back to recuperate.

"221," the staff member was stunned and gave the answer. "Room 221 was requested by a gentleman who called and asked for some fever medicine this morning."

"This is it!" The three of them all showed excitement on their faces, and they ran towards room 221 together.

When Ignacio weakly opened the door and was hugged tightly by Kaede Hoshino, who was filled with a relaxed smile, both Chiba and Conan's faces were full of smiles.

Some things don't have to be done only if you have hope, but you will have hope only if you do them. Things that seem like finding a needle in a haystack can probably be done without any effort.
