A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 111 Your Wish Is Quite Realistic
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder between the two was getting stronger, Suzuki Shiro hurried forward to stop them, after all, they were all guests invited by him.

"Don't be impatient, both of you. We will discuss in detail after this incident with Kidd is over."

"Don't worry, I will guard the treasure this time, and it will be safe."

Three people walked in again, led by Nakamori Ginzo, whose lifelong goal was to capture Kidd, and his two subordinates.

"Officer Nakamori, I still have to trouble your police this time."

This time Kidd's arrest operation was jointly formulated by the Metropolitan Police Departments of Tokyo and Osaka, and the leader was Ginzo Nakamori in front of him.

"Officer Nakamori, can we have a look at that notice letter?"

Hattori couldn't hold back his curiosity at first, and immediately asked, Officer Nakamori looked at him seriously.

"You are not from the Metropolitan Police Department, so don't get involved in this matter."

"What's the air, isn't it just a notice letter, I'll ask my dad and the others for it later."

Heye was dissatisfied with Officer Nakamori's scolding tone to Hattori, and fought back disdainfully.

"Who is your father? Is he also a policeman? How dare he tell you such a thing? I want to dismiss him."

"Officer Nakamori, her father is Toyama Ginshiro, and the father who asked you is Hattori Heizo."

……

Hearing Mori Kogoro's answer whispered in his ear, Nakamori Ginzo was embarrassed. These two people's positions were much higher than his own, so it would be good if he didn't dismiss himself.

He took out the notice letter in his arms and threw it to the uncle. Anyway, these people could also find out the content of the notice letter from other sources.

It's good to show them in advance, maybe they can help to crack it, Officer Zhong Mori can only comfort himself in this way.

"From the lion at dusk to the girl at dawn, when the clock without a second hand reaches No. 12, I will descend from the luminous sky pavilion and accept the egg of memory—the magician at the end of the century."

"This is not called the Egg of Resurrection. Why is Kidd not stealing this, but another egg of memory?"

"No, because in Japan, this egg is called the egg of resurrection. In the history of the Romanov dynasty, it is also called the egg of memory."

Hearing the uncle's doubts, the Russian clerk next to him explained the history of the egg.

"The content of this notice letter is quite detailed, and the time, place and purpose are all covered."

"The time is between [-]:[-] pm and [-]:[-] am. The place where it appears should be the castle tower."

Seeing that Hattori and Conan interpreted the content of the notice letter in a few words, Officer Nakamori and his subordinates looked at each other.

The answer they had spent the whole night figuring out was so easily given by these two people. They didn't care about the embarrassment, and hurriedly expressed their doubts.

"Have you seen the exact time?"

"Not yet, but what is certain is that the specific time must be contained in the second sentence."

Everyone present discussed the notice letter, English, Russian, Chinese, and all the time-related aspects of ranking twelve were all brought up.

Then they were rejected one by one, feeling that something was missing. In the end, Officer Nakamori took away the egg of memory for protection.

……

Since Kidd came at night, and Yuanzi came to Osaka for the first time, Xiaolan decided to take her girlfriends for a walk.

"I'll take you to a good place. I originally wanted to take Xiaolan there this time, but it was delayed. I just happen to be free today."

He and Ye Xing excitedly pulled Xiaolan's arm and walked forward, what she was going to was not far from this place.

Looking at the shrine in front of him, Hattori complained in a low voice, Kazuha likes to bring him here every time he comes out to play.

"The most famous thing about this shrine is to ask for lottery. The lottery you ask for here will usually come true, which is very accurate."

He brought Xiaolan and Yuanzi to the statue, and greeted the priest skillfully with Ye, it seemed that there were indeed many visits.

"When you're asking for a lottery, just say what you think in your heart, and then reach out and draw lots."

"I'm coming, I'm coming."

Yuanzi was also very keen on this kind of thing. He was the first to stand in front of the lottery table, closed his eyes and made a wish, reached out to take the lottery, and walked aside to study with a mysterious face.

The next person who stepped forward was Xiaolan, full of anticipation, thinking about her own wish, and took the lottery and walked aside.

Next was Hui Yuan, who walked forward to take the lottery with relish.

"Why, scientists also believe in this stuff?"

Pushing aside Noah who wanted to take a peek, Haibara carefully opened the lottery in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face when he saw the content on it.

Conan, who didn't believe in ghosts and gods, also drew a lottery at the instigation of Hattori. Noah and Hattori stretched their heads to see the lottery in Conan's hand.

"Xiaoji, it's quite satisfactory, neither good nor bad."

"That's not necessarily true."

Noah pointed to the prediction in the travel column, which said that the secret will eventually be known.

Conan, who suddenly saw this sentence, was shocked. He thought of his identity being discovered.

Shaking his head, he suddenly smiled, how could it be such a coincidence, and he didn't believe in this thing, probably he was too nervous.

Noah saw that several people had drawn, so he all came by himself, so he also drew one by the way.

Hattori and Conan turned their heads to see what was written on the paper, Haibara saw Noah drawing lots, and also came over to watch.

"Get rich overnight"

Simple and clear, at a glance, hit the point.

"Your lottery can be regarded as a top lottery, so ridiculous."

"What were you thinking when you made your wish?"

"I just thought that the cost is relatively high recently, and I will spend some money from the sky."

...Not afraid of smashing you to death, Huiyuan gave Noah a strange look, why doesn't this person think about other things, only thinking about money.

After visiting the shrine, several people parted ways.Women want to go shopping, and men want to go to other places.

"Do you have any new ideas about the time implied by that notice letter?"

As soon as they parted, Hattori couldn't help but ask the two about Kidd's notice letter, and they couldn't hide it at all.

Conan still didn't understand the meaning of that sentence, and shook his head to express that he didn't know.

"I have an idea. Isn't there a strange number at the end of that sentence? The time displayed on the clock should be three o'clock in the morning."

Noah didn't know how to explain the Japanese writing, he could only describe the symbol like this, a crooked number seven.

After saying these words, Hattori and Conan lowered their heads and thought about it, and the more they thought about it, the brighter their eyes became.

Not agreeing with Noah's time, but because of Noah's prompt, they came up with the real time.

"That symbol does represent the time, but it's not three o'clock in the morning, but seven o'clock in the evening."

After figuring it out, the two quickly rushed to the castle tower, where they were going to wait for Kidd's arrival.

Noah didn't go after the two of them. He had promised Kidd not to trouble him, so he just pretended he didn't see him this time.

Whistling, wandering the streets of Osaka like a hooligan.

……

The uncle was very comfortable at this time, because the egg of memory was hidden in a mysterious place by Police Officer Nakamori and his subordinates, so he had nothing to do.

Now I am sitting at the wine table with Suzuki Shiro, tasting the fine wine of Suzuki's house, chatting with Suzuki Shiro while drinking.

"President Suzuki, where is the egg of memory hidden by Police Officer Nakamori now?"

"Even I don't know about this. He said that only people who he is sure of know about that place."

"Forget it, Officer Zhongsen must have prepared so well, there must be no mistakes. Let's wait here for the victory."

The uncle raised his wine glass and Shiro Suzuki plunged into the ocean of fine wine, completely unaware that on the glass of his house, a pigeon with red dots on its feet was watching them.

In a certain hotel in Osaka, Kaito was listening to the messages from the bug he had set up with his earphones.

As the information was continuously collected and summarized, the smug smile on his face was useless wherever he hid it.

Time passed bit by bit, and it was getting closer to six o'clock in the evening in Kidd's notice letter. Everyone was ready, and Conan and Hattori had hidden on the top of the castle tower.
