Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1353 [Kidd without conscience]

Conan and Hattori Heiji were taken aback.

Mentioning the failed reasoning just now, their attention was indeed attracted, and they unconsciously repeated Jiang Xia's words: "Cross?"

Jiang Xia nodded: "Why must it be [-]:[-]—isn't it okay to be [-]:[-]?"

"!"

Conan and Hattori Heiji understood something, looked down at the watch, and suddenly realized that it was already ten past eight: "...Why didn't you say it earlier!!"

Just looking at the sentence on the notice letter, it is actually difficult to determine what it is referring to - in addition to the No. 12 words on the paper, there may be other complicated solutions.

So just now, after a flash of inspiration, Conan and Hattori Heiji were not so sure about the answer they got in their hearts. After all, detectives should always remain suspicious of everything.Then the two of them ran to Tongtian Pavilion to have a look, but they really didn't see Kidd, and immediately felt that they had guessed wrong.

But now, Jiang Xia's reference answer actually said such a sentence...

Could it be that Kidd will really appear in Tsutenkaku, just an hour later than they expected?
...Cunning Kidd!If I had known earlier, I would have waited a little longer!
……

The top of the castle tower.

Kidd looked at the time and laughed to himself: "It's time for the performance to begin."

He suddenly snapped his fingers handsomely.

At the same time, the other hand quietly pressed the switch without being so handsome.

In the next second, around the castle tower in the distance, countless fireworks rose into the sky in the blink of an eye, exploding splendidly, like a festival.

——The castle tower of Osaka Castle is exactly the "location where Kidd appeared" initially identified by the police and detectives.At this time, it seemed calm there, but in fact, there were dense policemen ambushing in the building.

Suddenly hearing the sound of fireworks exploding, they hid in their hiding place, looked at the fireworks outside the window, and couldn't help but wonder: "Kid Kidd, do you want the fireworks to attract our attention, and then sneak into the building while taking advantage of the chaos?  … Oh, naive!"

……

When the police are on alert.

In a nearby high-end restaurant.

Suzuki Shiro is happy to be free as the police have taken over all matters concerning Kidd.

He poured a glass of wine and drank it comfortably.Suddenly he turned his head and saw the fireworks outside, and he bent his eyes happily: "There is a festival in Osaka today? The quality of the fireworks is really good. I knew I would join in the fun."

But calculating the distance, by the time he passes by, the fireworks may have already been set off.

So after a while, Suzuki Shiro looked down at the food and drink in front of him, and continued to bury his head in eating.

……

In the Suzuki Modern Art Exhibition Hall, you can also see fireworks in the distance.

Three female high school students heard the movement, walked out of the small family bar, and went to the front of the building to enjoy it.

Suzuki Sonoko brought an extra cup of hot coffee, passed by the door, and handed it to Jiang Xia: "Come here, I will keep you refreshed until tomorrow!" Although drinking coffee at night is easy to cause insomnia, but today I have to stay up late to catch Kidd, which is just right for insomnia.

Mao Lilan also came over with another cup of coffee.She raised her head to see the scene outside, and was a little surprised: "It's such a luxurious firework. It's really generous for Osaka to hold a festival."

Yuan Shan and Ye raised their heads proudly.

After a while, I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, and touched my chin quietly: "Wait, I didn't hear that there is a festival today, it's still such a luxurious festival... Is there something wrong?"

……

Everyone who sees the fireworks enjoys it.

But in the distance, in a hidden building.

The Nakamori Police Department did not appreciate it at all.

He was sitting at the table, staring at the egg worth [-] million on the table, with a deep expression on his face, and he couldn't help laughing from time to time: Although the duel has not officially started yet, he already has the idea of ​​the police's drastic change of operations in his mind. The bleak sight of Kidd returning empty-handed after the ploy.

Nakamori Police Department: "..." Although the ultimate goal is to catch Kidd, the food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and the road needs to be taken step by step—in short, a small phased goal must be achieved first, so that Kidd cannot steal it from the police. thing.

After reaching this point, will it be far from catching him?

Next to him, the two loyal subordinates who were picked by the Zhongsen Police Department were a little worried.

They saw the fireworks set off at the "police-certified place where Kidd appeared" at the castle tower, and they couldn't figure out where Kidd was going. They also saw that the Nakamori police department did not respond, so they had to remind them: "Police department, there is a firework going off in the direction of Osaka Castle." Lots of fireworks!"

"What are you panicking about? That's not Kidd. Kidd is always on time when he comes on stage." Police Department Nakamori said calmly and firmly, "Since it is stated in the notice that he will appear on stage at three or four o'clock in the morning, then he will never come earlier. ——And, so what if it is him? There is no egg he wants in Osaka City, hahahahaha!"

……

The time identified by the Nakamori police department is obviously different from that identified by several detectives.

I just heard from Jiang Xia that Kidd will appear on stage at [-]:[-], and immediately after that, I saw fireworks going off at Osaka Castle.

Hattori Heiji couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "Could it be that I made a mistake, his appearance is not Tsutenkaku, where the weather is forecasted, but Osaka Castle, where the police first guessed?"

... It's fine to guess the time wrong, but I can't even guess the location of the flash of inspiration.It's frustrating to think about it that way.

Conan usually lives in Tokyo and has more dealings with Kidd. He thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, maybe when Kidd wrote the notice letter, he had already thought that this would mislead us—he did it on purpose. That's what it says."

Jiang Xia nodded: "That is indeed a very flexible and flexible monster." And he can lose his conscience when necessary...

Realizing that he had guessed correctly, Hattori Heiji immediately stood up again.He looked at the time: "It's too late to go to Tongtian Pavilion to catch him, let's ambush here."

At this time, it happened that Secretary Nishino had reached an agreement with the mixed-race lady and was leading people to the living room.

Jiang Xia stopped him and asked meaningfully, "Which room is the Egg of Memories? —— Kidd's appearance may be earlier than we speculated before. He may be coming soon."

Secretary Nishino was startled, a little embarrassed: Logically speaking, this is a secret from the police and the boss...

It happened that a few girls also heard it, and Suzuki Sonoko waved his hand: "Say it quickly, it's okay, if you lose it, you lose it, it's not your responsibility."

Even she said so, Secretary Nishino had no choice but to compromise.

He looked around, avoided the two guests, and whispered to the high school students: "In the afternoon, the Nakamori Police Department took the 'Egg of Memory' away, and he said it would be safer."

"Take it away?" The two detectives were stunned, "Bring it back to the police station?"

The secretary shook his head and brought a very bad news: "No, it is hidden in a place that is said to be known only to him."
