The referee announced the start of today's game, took out the envelope used to seal the chess game last night, and asked the participating parties, the supervisory team, and the scorer to check the seal of the envelope. After confirming that the seal had not been opened, he cut the seal of the envelope in public and took out the paper inside.
strip.
"The move Feng Qi made last night was worth five or six silver..."
As the referee made the announcement, the current celebrity also placed the silver checker piece in the corresponding position on the chessboard.
The surrounding reporters immediately picked up their cameras and took pictures of the current distribution of chess pieces on the chessboard.
Haneda Hideyoshi looked at the chessboard and stood up with an ugly expression on his face, "I request a long examination!"
The current celebrities and others looked at Haneda Hideyoshi with blank expressions on their faces.
This move...should not be difficult to deal with, right?
This is just the most basic way to play chess. If a new chess player comes to play, they won’t feel like they can’t make the next move. Why do we need to take a long exam? Is it because I feel uncomfortable?
Haneda Hideyoshi did not explain, turned around and walked out of the Japanese-style room where the competition was held. Seeing Ike Feichi and Koshimizu Nanatsuki waiting at the door, he said hello in a low voice, "Sorry, I have to leave for a while."
"Haneda Six Crowns!" The person in charge of the organizer chased out of the Japanese room. When he saw Haneda Hideyoshi walking straight to the lobby, he quickly caught up and asked, "What happened?"
"I have some personal matters to deal with..."
Haneda Hideyoshi didn't explain too much to the organizers. He put on his shoes in front of the lobby, quickly walked out of the hotel lobby, walked through the front yard to the main entrance.
A red Lexus SC drove out of the gate and stopped on the road next to Haneda Hideyoshi.
Chi Feichi sat in the car, lowered the window and asked, "Where do you want to go?"
Koshimizu Nanatsuki sat in the passenger seat and cast a questioning look at Haneda Hideyoshi.
Haneda Hideyoshi looked at the nearby taxis and then at the car driven by Chi Feichi. He compared the performance of the two cars in his mind. Without hesitating for too long, he opened the back seat door of Chi Feichi's car and took charge of the organizer.
With people's doubtful eyes, he slid into the back seat, closed the car door, and said with a heavy expression, "Go to Tokyo, please hurry up!"
"Wait, wait a minute!" the person in charge said in surprise. Before he could ask Haneda Hideyoshi what he was doing in Tokyo, the red car in front of him was already speeding towards the intersection. He was stunned for a second, then turned around and walked back with a look of helplessness.
, said to the staff behind him, "Since Haneda Rokugan has personal matters to deal with, let's wait!"
In the Lexus SC leaving the hotel, Koshimi Nanatsuki raised his eyes and looked at Haneda Hideyoshi from the rearview mirror in the car. Seeing a trace of worry on Haneda Hideyoshi's face, he asked aloud, "Mr. Haneda, what's going on?
You suddenly have to go to Tokyo during the competition, is someone you know in trouble?"
"This..." Haneda Hideyoshi looked troubled, thinking that the letter he received said "not to be disclosed", and he didn't know whether he should tell the matter.
"Wait a minute!" Koshimizu Nanatsuki opened his carry-on bag, rummaged through it, took out a palm-sized instrument, pulled out the antenna inside the instrument, and pressed the green button on the instrument, "
This is a signal detection device that can detect the signals of various common eavesdroppers. The detection range is one meter around..."
As he spoke, Koshimizu Nanatsuki turned slightly sideways and probed the instrument antenna into the back seat. Seeing that there was no movement from the instrument, he said to Haneda Hideyoshi, "If there is no beeping sound from the instrument, it means there is no bug in the car!"
Haneda Hideyoshi: "..."
(☉_☉)
As expected of a detective, he actually carries a signal detection device with him when he goes out...
"So what happened?" Chi Feichi asked aloud.
In the original plot, Conan didn't ask much, and Haneda Hideyoshi still told Conan the situation. This shows that Haneda Hideyoshi did not have enough confidence to handle this incident, and he still tended to find helpers...
In this case, after confirming that there was no bug in the car and that their words would not be heard, Haneda Hideyoshi should not hesitate anymore.
Haneda Hideyoshi was silent for a moment, took out an envelope from his arms, and told the story, "Before the game started this morning..."
Before the game started, the hotel staff handed a letter to Haneda Hideyoshi, saying that it was a letter sent by a man yesterday morning, and asked them to hand the letter to Haneda Hideyoshi before the game started today. In addition, the letter was sent by
People also said that as long as the letter is given to Haneda Hideyoshi, after Haneda Hideyoshi sees the signature on the letter, he will definitely accept it.
Haneda Hideyoshi saw Miyamoto Yumi's name written on the envelope, and the handwriting was consistent with Miyamoto Yumi's writing habit. He wondered whether Miyamoto Yumi had asked someone to send this letter, and he opened the envelope expectantly.
, but inside the envelope was a letter with a strange code and a photo of Yumi Miyamoto being kidnapped.
There are two cards in the envelope.
There is a sentence printed on the first card:
[Your woman is in my hands. If you want to save her, please interpret my chess record. I will wait until the moment your time runs out. This matter cannot be spread outside. In addition, calling the police is forbidden. - Headless
chess player]
On the second card, another paragraph was printed:
【First game
One of the seven shrines was attacked by thieves. The treasures in the palace were looted within two days, and even the daughter of the shrine hidden in the well was taken away.】
In addition to these two cards, the letter also contained a photo of Miyamoto Yumi being tied with ropes, her mouth taped, and unconscious on the sofa.
Haneda Hideyoshi explained what happened, handed the entire letter to Koshimizu Nanatsuki, and asked Koshimizu Nanatsuki to look at the two cards and photos.
Koshizui Nanatsuki read the card and photos, read the contents of the card aloud so that Chi Feichi who was driving the car could also know the contents of the card, then put the card and photos into an envelope and handed them back to Haneda Hideyoshi in the back seat.
"The other party asked you to interpret the chess record. It should be a secret code. If you call the police, you will be banned. It means that if you call the police, you will violate the rules and you will be eliminated directly, right?"
"Yes," Haneda Hideyoshi took the envelope and took out a photo of Miyamoto Yumi. He looked down at the photo with worry on his face, "If you violate the rules, you will be eliminated directly. In addition, the letter also mentioned that you will wait until my time is up.
, the only time that is meaningful to me recently is the chess time of this celebrity title match, and the letter also mentioned chess game terms such as chess records, chess players, and forbidden hands. I think the time the other party is referring to should be
During my playing time in this competition, the opponent will only wait for me until the moment my playing time ends."
Koshimizu Nanatsuki carefully recalled the time spent in Haneda Hideyoshi's game, "I remember that the playing time you spent yesterday was three hours and two minutes. Each game of the celebrity title match lasted nine hours for each side. In other words, you spent today
There are still five hours and fifty-eight minutes left to play..."
"It takes about two hours to drive from here to Tokyo normally. If you speed up, it will take about an hour and a half," Haneda Hideyoshi looked up at Chi Feichi in the front seat and said seriously, "So I want to ask Mr. Chi to drive faster.
.”
"Isn't it fast enough now?" Chi Feichi asked aloud.
Haneda Hideyoshi looked out the window at the road scene blurred by the speed of the car, and sweated, "No... I'm sorry, I was too worried about Yumi just now, so I didn't look out the window. Looking at the current speed, it is indeed very fast..."
"There are often cars on the nearby roads, and accidents can easily occur if the speed is too fast," Chi Feichi said calmly, "I know a road with few cars and where it is not easy to encounter traffic police. Although it is only a short distance from that road to Tokyo.
It's a little longer than the normal way to Tokyo, but you can drive as fast as you can on that road, which will make it faster. You can definitely get to Tokyo in an hour and a half. If you don't mind, I'll choose that one later.
A road.”
"Are you sure?" Haneda Hideyoshi asked seriously.
"I'm sure," Chi Feichi affirmed, "There will be no traffic jams on that road, and the road has not been closed for any reason in the past two days. As long as the road is clear, I am sure that I will arrive in Tokyo within an hour and a half."
