Chapter 246 The curtain and the main film are about to start
Without the disturbing trio of left-behind children, everyone quickly reached the end of the underground passage, where a stone wall blocked everyone's way.
"Is there no way?" Mouri Kogoro held up the lighter and looked around, hoping to find a way to move forward. Unfortunately, the passage was only so big and he couldn't find anything.
The light of the flashlight was focused on the stone wall. In the middle of the stone wall was a two-headed vulture with a crown. Behind the two-headed vulture's head was a sun.
Two-headed eagle...crown...sun...ray?! Conan, who was staring at the mural in deep thought, suddenly thought of the connection, and then ran to Rensaburo Shiratori, who was pretending to be stupid, and said:
"Officer Shiratori, please adjust the flashlight to the same size as the sun, and then shine it directly!"
"You kid! What are you doing again!" Moori Kogoro, who was originally upset, felt his fists were itchy after hearing Conan's command, and he needed Conan's dog head to relieve the itching!
Mouri Kogoro, who was just about to start educating his children, was stopped by Jiang Yuan and said with a smile: "Uncle, let Conan give it a try. Anyway, you are idle."
Jiang Yuan didn't say the remaining part of the sentence, which was to spank the child when it was time to spank it at home. Anyway, it was just as free time~
After hearing Conan's command, Shiratori Rensaburo did as Conan said without hesitation. Ehara and Kuroba Kaito reached a rare agreement on cheating Conan.
Soon, the light of the flashlight shone directly on the sun behind the two-headed eagle, and after a few seconds, the gems on the crown burst out with colorful light!
There was another rumble, just like in the study just now, and everyone's feet cracked open again, revealing the passage to the lower level!
Conan's reasoning was verified once again. At this time, Mao Lilan looked at Conan with shock in her eyes. She knew very well that Kudo Shinichi in elementary school had absolutely no such reasoning ability!
Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuan has already thought about where to go to watch the excitement of Conan in the evening, and the photos of Dr. Ali will also be arranged for Mao Lilan later, so that she can recall the children her childhood sweetheart recruited after she became younger.
Peach blossom!
This time, what was revealed after the mechanism was opened was not the same underground passage as before, but a tomb shaped like an egg.
At the end of the tomb is a wooden Western-style coffin with a large lock on it.
Mouri Kogoro lit the candlesticks on both sides of the coffin with a lighter, then looked at the big lock on the coffin and looked back at Kasaka Natsumi
"Miss Natsumi, that key!"
When Natsumi Kasaka was cleaning up her great-grandfather's study, she once found two drawings and a huge key. However, the entire castle did not have a lock that matched the key.
But the lock on the coffin exactly corresponds to the huge key in Natsumi Kasaka's hand.
"Here, Detective Mori!" Natsumi Kasaka took out the key from the bag she carried and handed it to Kogoro Mori. Then Uncle Mori carefully put the key into the keyhole. The process was extremely smooth, and the key and the keyhole fit perfectly.
When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent.
"Click." As Mouri Kogoro turned it gently, a click came from the keyhole, and the big lock was opened by Kasaka Natsumi's key.
"It's opened!" Mouri Kogoro was very excited. Then he took off the lock on the coffin and put it at his feet. He asked Natsumi Kasaka next to him: "I wonder if it's convenient to open it?"
After obtaining the consent of Kasaka Natsumi, Mouri Kogoro and the strong clerk worked hard together. With a creaking sound, the wooden clamshell coffin was slowly opened, revealing a skeleton that had turned into white bones and a red and gold griffin.
Memory eggs in multiple colors!
"Oh! There really is another Egg of Memory!" Seeing the Egg of Memory held in the skeleton's hand, the brawny clerk looked very surprised.
"I'm sorry." Mouri Kogoro apologized to the bones lying in the coffin, then took out the egg of memory and held it in his hand. As soon as he got his hands on it, Mouri Kogoro felt that this egg was much lighter than the one from the Suzuki family.
"The one from Miss Natsumi's family looks much prettier than the one from mine..." Suzuki Sonoko looked at the egg in Mouri Kogoro's hand with some envy and said.
It's not that I envy this egg, but mainly because I think the color is pretty... Suzuki Sonoko's speech once again inadvertently seriously hurt Ehara beside him.
Learning the lesson from Conan before, Kogoro Mouri moved very gently this time, and gently opened the memory egg in his hand. The moment he opened it, Uncle Mouri's eyes widened in disbelief:
"It's actually empty inside?!"
After hearing this, everyone hurriedly gathered around and stood next to Mouri Kogoro. Everyone was confused. Logically speaking, even if it was full of diamonds, they wouldn't be surprised at all, but it was actually empty.
Conan noticed that there were several card slots in the Kasaka family's eggs and couldn't help but think of the Suzuki family's eggs. He then speculated that the two eggs were probably two in one, which made sense from the size.
"Damn it, I would have borrowed the eggs from Chairman Suzuki if I had known earlier!" Mouri Kogoro looked regretful.
"There is an egg," Shiratori Rensaburo said suddenly, and then took out the memory egg of the Suzuki family's Slytherin color from the bag: "Before I come again, I specially borrowed this memory egg from President Suzuki."
"I didn't expect it would actually be used..."
Seeing the unscrupulous Kuroba Kaito Ehara in front of him, he really wanted to throw a cup and shout that Kid was here, and then everyone swarmed up and captured the Kaito Kid who was traveling across Tokyo and Osaka in one fell swoop.
However, considering the extra income in the future, Jiang Yuan gave up this very tempting idea.
Hey, it's a life-saving grace at least. It should be reasonable to let Kaitou Kid take some unclothed photos in the future so that Ewon can use it to supplement the family income, right?
Under the gaze of everyone, Mouri Kogoro carefully combined the two eggs into one, and the two memory eggs instantly became one, as if they had always been in this form.
The onlookers sighed for a moment. They did not expect that the 51st Emperor's Easter egg would be in this form. A group of people shouted that they had learned a lot.
Only Conan was still frowning and thinking. He always felt that something was missing. As a magician at the end of the century, Kasaka Kiichi would definitely have more amazing tricks than before!
Then Conan thought of the round platform he passed by without knowing its function, and associated it with the mechanism he just passed. Conan instantly understood everything!
"Sister Mariko, Brother Ewara, please put out the candlestick!" Conan snatched the Egg of Memory from Kogoro Mori's hand, then ran to the round platform with Shiratori Rensaburo and signaled Officer Shiratori to turn the light of the flashlight to direct light and then let it go.
Go into the groove of the changer.
Then place the memory egg in your hand on top of the flashlight.
Ehara and Suzuki Sonoko followed their instructions and extinguished the candlesticks. Instantly, the inside of the tomb became pitch black, with only the round platform being the only source of light in the entire tomb.
Then a faint light flashed across the egg, and the two layers of the egg of memories gradually became transparent. The golden statue of the emperor's family inside was not wound but slowly rose up.
As a few rays of light refracted in the photo album in the statue's hand, the gem at the top of the egg of memory bloomed with intense light, and then several photos were projected on the wall above the tomb by the egg of memory!
"This, this is!" Mouri Kogoro was shocked, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously.
"This is the design of the photometer..." Shiratori Rensaburo said calmly.
"This is a photo of Emperor Nikolai's family!" The strong man secretary was a civil servant after all, and he could tell the origin of the photo on the wall at a glance.
"That's..." The strong man's secretary suddenly saw a group photo of the emperor's family and then noticed the princess Maria. The secretary then looked at Kasaka Natsumi next to him. The two people looked so similar.
Already...
"Hey, Sister Natsumi, is that your great-grandfather on the picture?" Conan pointed to one of the pictures and said. Conan had seen a picture of Kasaka Kiichi in the study.
"So the person next to my great-grandfather is my great-grandmother?" Looking at the gentle woman beside her great-grandfather, Natsumi Kasaka showed a smile from the bottom of her heart. This was the first time she saw a photo of her great-grandmother.
"No wonder..." The brawny secretary showed such an expression after hearing the conversation between Conan and Natsumi Kasaka, and then secretly made up his mind.
At this time, the photos on the wall slowly disappeared, the statue that had been raised slowly fell down, and the egg of memories once again returned to its ordinary appearance.
