The words that appeared together shocked the Megure Police Department: "Could it be that he was imprisoned somewhere and had to resort to this method to quietly ask for help from the outside world? ... That's right. I remember that Mr. Shinname has a lot of fanaticism.
Fans, the editorial department called the police before, saying that someone threatened to burn this place down.
"In addition, it is not ruled out that some outlaws are interested in Mr. Shinmei's royalties, so they arrested him and locked him up and made him work part-time. In this way, he could see the novel and get royalties at the same time... Hey, it's like killing two birds with one stone."
When the editor heard this, he couldn't help but interject in a low voice: "But we haven't paid the royalties yet - Mr. Shinname said that the royalties will be remitted to him after all the copies are completed."
Next to him, Conan was dialing the phone silently, but the person on the other end didn't answer the phone.
Conan looked at his phone suspiciously: "..." Answer it, why not? That guy Hattori, doesn't he trust his brother?
While continuing to dial, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice: Fortunately, he had already seen what Jiang Xia just said.
Compared with this, what is puzzling is the lines in the second and third paragraphs - they seem to be no longer able to simply use "the vertex of 1/2" as the key to solving the puzzle, because after solving it this way, what appears is a paragraph
Weird lines that make no sense at all.
"I he ka i he present residence, white re no offender wa... what is this?"
"I originally wanted to call Hattori to discuss it, but this guy hid quickly." Conan snorted in his heart, "But you are too underestimated. Today I will call you until you are willing to answer the phone."
With this thought in mind, he changed his number and began to secretly call Hattori Heiji's home landline - mobile phones can easily do not disturb, but landlines are not so easy.
Of course, Conan was not idle during the dialing period. He found a pen, wrote and drew on the lines, tried various combinations, and even used many advanced formulas.
However, no matter how I arrange them, I can never get a coherent meaning.
"Don't these two paragraphs actually have any other meanings?" Conan touched his chin and speculated secretly, "That's true. If the gangster who kidnapped Mr. Shinname is a fan of his, then he must be very familiar with the author's writing style.
He also has a certain level of reasoning ability... Maybe he understood the first code, so he promptly stopped Mr. Shinname from passing on the message."
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Xia's voice came from the side. He said to the Memu Police Department: "In addition to the '1/2 pinnacle', to answer the code sent by Mr. Shinname, we actually need a second key - France."
The police department was confused: "France?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Mr. Xinming often travels to France, so he should know some French. In the novel, he also happens to be in France - there is a silent 'H' in French, so when deciphering word puzzles, everything begins with H
The letters of , that is, the five letters of the 'ha' line, are all to be removed from this passage."
Niina Kahoori held the second script and softly interpreted the message her father wanted to convey: "'The place I am now is'..."
There is no more behind.
Shinname Xiangbaoli: "..." At this time, my father actually breaks the chapter! Why don't you just write the location? Of course we can guess that is where you are!
She clenched her fists, but she could only grit her teeth and take the third script, and began to spell out: "'Kido Municipal Hotel'...Kido? Where is this?"
After a moment of confusion, she suddenly thought of something and said to Jiang Xia: "Could this be a mark of Japanese Romaji? 'hu' is written as 'fu', so what dad wants to express is not 'Kido', but '
Cupido'!"
Conan, who hadn't made the call yet, fell silent.
After a second, he silently stared at the phone: "..." Damn this phone call, hurry up! Let Hattori also hear the fresh answer to this mystery!
While dialing, Conan grabbed the fourth manuscript next to him, lowered his head and spelled out: "Room 2407."
"Together, it's Room 2407 of the Aipido Municipal Hotel." The Megure Police Department breathed a sigh of relief. With the specific location, things became simpler. He waved his hand, "Go and have a look! Takagi, call Sato and let him know.
She dispatched her men and prepared for the rescue!"
…
The two cars rushed out of the street and drove quickly towards the Abeido Municipal Hotel.
In the car, Conan pressed his fingers and quietly sent an email to Hattori Heiji.
After doing the bad thing, he put away his phone with a guilty conscience and looked around.
Suddenly his eyes stopped at the side, and he was slightly startled: "..." Is it an illusion? An author was captured by kidnappers and was about to die, but why did Jiang Xia not seem to be in a hurry?
While watching, Jiang Xia suddenly asked: "What's wrong?"
"!" Conan's heart thumped for some reason, and he changed the topic as if nothing had happened, "I don't know when Hattori will see the email I sent."
Jiang Xia: "What email?"
Conan: "..." Oops, I lost my mind and let it slip.
He cleared his throat and said seriously: "Of course it's an email discussing how to solve the case."
While chatting, the group arrived at the hotel and went straight to the front desk.
Jiang Xia's eyes moved to another place. He reached out and grabbed a dark-skinned employee who was passing by in a hurry: "Boss? This is also your place of work."
Toru Amuro: "..."
...Why are you everywhere!
He took a deep breath, took a second to adjust his emotions, and then glanced at the police who were arriving one after another with some confusion: "What are you doing?"
Jiang Xia: "Play a mystery game with a writer."
"Writer?" Toru Amuro recalled the suspicious guests coming and going in this hotel, "The one on the 24th floor?"
Just as he was talking, the elevator door suddenly opened, and a slightly older woman walked out with a USB flash drive and a worried look on her face.
When she looked up and saw the police in the lobby, she was stunned, and instinctively wanted to shrink back into the elevator. However, at this time, Shinname Kahori happened to look this way. When their eyes met, the young woman blurted out: "Mom?!"
"Huh?!" Megure Police Department was shocked: How could Mrs. Shinina, who was kidnapped together with her husband, appear here alone?
But I was surprised. Since Niina Kahori shouted that, it must be true. The Megure Police Department strode forward, grabbed Mrs. Niina and threw her back: "Protect her!"
"Yes!" Officer Takagi and several police officers who had just arrived surrounded the people.
"No, I..." Mrs. Shinname waved her hands anxiously, as if she wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start.
Before she could think of words, several police officers filed in and rushed into the elevator.
Jiang Xia also walked in before the door was closed, and Conan quickly followed.
Toru Amuro looked at this posture and hesitated for a moment. Finally, curiosity took over. He turned to one side and squeezed into the elevator through the gap in the door that was about to close.
