When Kuroki Jin cleaned up the kitchen and came out with Edogawa Conan, he saw several people who were supposed to be cleaning or looking for things gathered around and didn't know what they were looking at.
When Kuroki Jin came closer, he heard Dr. Ari telling a story.
The protagonist of the story is Dr. Ali and a little girl 40 years ago. The little girl did not dare to move because she was afraid of the big dog that would bark at her on the way to school. Dr. Ali happened to see her and asked her to hide behind him.
, the two became very good friends after that.
Dr. A Li would wait for her to go to school every morning, and would take her to the house of a friend who raised animals to make her fall in love with animals again. She spent a very happy few months like this.
But one morning the girl stopped showing up, and when Dr. Ali went to their house after school, he was told by passers-by that their family had moved away this morning.
Before leaving, the girl left a letter to Dr. Ali, agreeing to meet him again ten years later at a place full of memories.
Conan finished reading the content of this letter:
"...To my most favorite Agasa, April 12th, Kinoshita..."
Conan tilted his head and carefully identified the remaining words, and found that they were too blurry to distinguish.
"Perhaps it was because it rained that morning and I got wet from the rain." Dr. Ali guessed.
He even remembers what the weather was like on the morning we parted. It seems that Dr. Agasa has a very deep memory of Miss Kinoshita.
Kuroki Jin was thinking about some of these, and continued to listen to Dr. Ali's memories.
They agreed in the letter to meet once every ten years, but every ten years Dr. Ali would wait in a place he thought was worth remembering, but he never waited for the other party.
It’s not that I haven’t considered that the other party has forgotten this agreement, but Dr. Ali will still go to the appointment on this day.
"It's just that I really don't know where else to go this time." Dr. Ali smiled bitterly, "It can't be the school we went to together, right? I don't think I've ever gone back to visit Didan Elementary School." p>
"Speaking of which, isn't there a code prompt on it?" Conan had been reading the letter, pointing to the bottom of the front of the letter and said: "There is a row of numbers below the recipient. Maybe it was the location left by Miss Kinoshita.
Where’s the password?”
Yuantai lay on the sofa and read the words on it: "4163,33,6,0, what does this mean."
Mitsuhiko added on the side: "It also says that the prompt is an animal."
"Doctor, what does this mean?" Ayumi said she didn't understand.
Haihara Ai said softly: "If the doctor knew what this meant, he would have gone to see her long ago."
"Hehehe..." Dr. Ali awkwardly touched his head and smiled bitterly.
Kuroki Jin took the letter from Conan and read it over and over again without finding any new clues. However, he did make a point: "With how children use passwords, this password shouldn't be difficult." Haiyuan lamented: "But it's precisely because a child came up with it that it's more unimaginable, isn't it?"
"That's right."
"And it says just wait until the sun sets. Now there are only more than four hours left before the sun sets. If the doctor really wants to go, he must hurry up."
Dr. A Li was helpless: "But I don't know where it is..."
"Conan-kun..."
"I don't know either." Edogawa Conan was also confused. He was very good at deciphering complex murder techniques, but as Kuroki Jin said, this kind of wild and unconstrained idea belongs to a child, and he would really do it for a while.
No way to start.
Then they tried to find the connection between this string of numbers and animals from various animal-related perspectives.
"Speaking of animals, don't we have many animals in our school?" Ayumi suddenly remembered, "I don't know if anyone will feed them during the holidays, otherwise we can wait until we go to school."
"Then we have to wait until we find Dr. Agasa's memory place." Mitsuhiko said, "Otherwise, let's go to the sleeping Kogoro for help."
"Uncle Maori went to watch the joint concert of Okino Yoko and Nakayama Misa."
"Weisha?" Dr. Ali suddenly muttered.
Everyone looked at him and heard Dr. Ali say: "That's what her name seems to be."
Kuroki Ren: "..."
Mouri Kogoro can't be found, and the children turn to Suzuki Sonoko. She always calls herself a high school girl detective.
"Speaking of this..." Kuroki Ren then remembered what he had forgotten, "Has anyone seen Miss Sonoko since you came back?"
Conan replied: "Xiaolan...sister went there today. I wanted to go too, but Xiaolan said Yuanzi might want to say something to her and didn't want me or my uncle to go too."
"But just now Sister Xiaolan sent me a message saying that Sister Yuanzi is fine. The two of them are now setting off to buy a brand of bags? I don't remember the details."
Kuroki Ren raised his eyebrows and quickly covered up his strange look.
The only part of this kidnapping case that he didn't connect was that Suzuki Sonoko was released. Who did the Suzuki Consortium use and at what cost did they exchange the person back?
Kuroki Jin suspected that it was an organization, because he really couldn't think of anyone else in Tokyo, Japan, who had such great energy except the organization.
But he didn't ask this time. He just suppressed the question in his heart and waited patiently for the day when he could find out this part of the truth.
Among other things, Kuroki Jin definitely has patience, otherwise he wouldn’t hide something in his heart and hold it back until he couldn’t bear to say it anymore.
Ai Haibara followed up Conan's words: "It's a commemorative product released today by designer Fusae Campbell, right?"
"Eh?"
Yuantai complained: "It's just the kind of bag with leaf patterns, I don't know what's so good about it."
Kuroki Jin didn't even need to think about it, he knew that Genta must be thinking that with this money, he could eat a lot of eel rice.
Mitsuhiko said helplessly: "That's not a leaf, it's a ginkgo leaf. It's the brand pattern painted by Fusha."
"Furthermore, Fushahui brand not only sells expensive products, but also has many reasonably priced products."
Kuroki Jin's keen intuition told him that Haihara Ai was very interested in this brand.
He took a half step back to temporarily quit the chat, and quickly clicked the phone buttons with his thumb to search for the brand with this name.
He thought about it, the name Haihara Ai mentioned just now was Fushae Campbell... Strangely, this name seemed a bit familiar.
Kuroki Jin thought about it but couldn't dig out the origin of the name from his memory. He flipped through the entries and temporarily put the matter in the back of his mind.
"What are you looking at? Let's go." Someone suddenly kicked his calf. Kuroki Ren raised his head and then lowered his head in confusion, and saw Haihara Ai walking in front of him.
"Oh, let's go." Heimuren nodded, put away his phone and asked, "Where to go?"
