A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 285 First Love
"He Ye, take the two of them around, Conan and I have to leave beforehand."

"Heiji, you..."

However, before He Ye could finish talking, Hattori had already dragged Conan far away, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The happy smile on Kazuha's original face gradually faded, and he lost interest, which made Xiaolan and Sonoko curious. When Hattori left before, he had never seen Kazuha so depressed.

"He Ye, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Xiaolan and Yuanzi's expressions of concern, Heye sighed lightly, thinking that it would be good to say it.

"Hatori has a first love..."

"What? First love?"

"Isn't it you?"

As soon as he and Ye started talking, they were interrupted by Xiaolan and Yuanzi's exclamation. They never thought that there was such a past.

"The two of us are not together yet. I guess it is because of this first love that Hattori has been hesitant."

For Xiaolan and Yuanzi, Heye didn't have any embarrassment, and said everything in his heart.

"First love is indeed the most memorable."

"Garden!"

Xiaolan glared at Yuanzi, causing Yuanzi's face to stagnate, and he laughed awkwardly. It was obviously inappropriate to say such things at this time.

He Ye didn't care, she also knew Yuanzi's character, she was a little careless, and continued.

"His first love was in Kyoto. Although Hattori didn't tell me, I know that he often came to Kyoto to look for it, but he never found it."

"So you haven't seen Hattori's so-called first love?"

"It's not just me, even Hattori himself only met once when he was a child, but it was that one-sided relationship that made Hattori think about it for eight years."

Talking with Ye became more and more angry, and finally became extremely depressed. She and Hattori have known each other for a long time than her first love, but Hattori still misses her first love.

"After such a long time, I'm afraid that woman has grown up and changed her appearance, and she may have left Kyoto long ago."

Seeing He Ye's expression, Xiaolan tried to comfort her, because what she said was true.

"There is a crystal bead in Hattori's hand, which was left by the woman back then. Hattori once mentioned this matter in the newspaper in a vague way, and even put a photo of the crystal bead on it, hoping that the woman would see it after seeing it. Can take the initiative to contact the service department."

"Don't think too much, I feel that Hattori has a deep affection for you. This first love is just an obsession of his, and it may not disappear any day."

"maybe."

He Ye didn't become happy because of Xiaolan's persuasion, and his face was still a bit bitter, because she always comforted herself like this.

……

"Why did you drag me out alone? Why didn't you go around with Xiaolan and the others?"

"Of course there is something. This time I need your help."

Hattori saw the press conference on the way here. He knew one of the deceased and had helped him.

As soon as the announcement was over, he called Officer Otaki to ask about the progress of the matter. Although the other party was a member of Genji Hotaru's organization, he still wanted to avenge him.

Officer Otaki told him that according to the clues obtained, the murderer was probably in Kyoto, but he was afraid of causing panic and did not announce it to the public.

"There are eight members of Genji Hotaru. In addition to the five who died, there are also Yoshitsune, Benkei, and Ise Saburo. We need to find them."

"Hey, hey, the two of us don't have any clues, and we don't know where to look."

Conan interrupted Hattori's high spirits by saying something, let alone them, the Metropolitan Police Department probably doesn't have many clues so far.

"Then try to find it, you can't wait for clues to come to your door."

"Then do you have a goal?"

"No."

Conan staggered a bit, not as confident as he said.

"Let's go, look for it, and take you for a ride by the way."

"For a ride?"

Conan's doubts were quickly resolved. When Hattori came, he asked Police Officer Otaki to transport his motorcycle from Osaka. It is estimated that it is now parked at the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department.

When they came to the police station to pick up the motorcycle, a figure stood quietly in front of the two, staring at them coldly.

"Is there a problem?"

"I've heard of you, Hattori Heiji."

As soon as this remark came out, a smile appeared on Hattori's face. Unexpectedly, the police department of the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department knew about him.

That's right, this person is the policeman who appeared on TV just now, sitting side by side with Officer Megure.

However, the other party's next words made Hattori's smile froze on his face.

"I know you want to investigate Genji Hotaru, but this is not Osaka, I hope you'd better not be too self-righteous."

After all, before Hattori responded, he turned and left. When Hattori reacted and wanted to refute, he was stopped by Conan. This is his territory, so don't look for excitement.

"Who is that person? Do you know him? How does he know that you are investigating Genji Hotaru?"

"Ayanokōji Wengong, the police department of the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department. It is rumored that it is Hou Yi, an ancient courtier. He is known as a noble police officer. It is said that he has a very weird personality. He probably learned about me from Uncle Otaki."

Conan stared at Ayanokōji Fumiya's back thoughtfully, and suddenly saw a small thing popping out of the opponent's pocket, quickly crawled onto the opponent's shoulder, and said in surprise.

"what is that?"

"A rare species of squirrel, I heard it is his partner, leave him alone, we should investigate."

……

The uncle here rushed to Sanneng Temple in Kyoto non-stop. As soon as he entered the temple, monks immediately greeted him.

"Mr. Maori, I'm really sorry to trouble you. I'm Longyuan calling you. If it's not urgent, I should pay a visit."

"You're welcome, it's my job to help clients deal with things, who are these?"

The uncle looked at the figures behind the monks and asked, some of them didn't look like people from the temple.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the host Yuan Hai, and the others are pilgrims from our temple."

Sakura Shozo, owner of an antique shop.

Taiga Saijo, the owner of the bookstore.

Mizuo Harutaro, owner of the sword shop.

They also heard a little about the uncle's reputation, and they all said hello.

Long Yuan did not tell the commission in front of the pilgrims, but after sending them away, he brought the uncle to the backyard to tell the story.

There are three most famous Buddha statues in Sanneng Temple, which are consecrated every 12 years, so they attract many tourists every time.

However, the most precious of the three Buddha statues, Medicine Master Tathagata, was lost eight years ago.

Seeing that the day of consecration was approaching, but Medicine Master Tathagata was still missing, a letter quietly fell into the temple.

"Pharmacist Tathagata is in our hands. If you want to get it back, you must decipher the code attached to this letter, and we will return it afterwards."

The uncle stared at the code on the paper, his eyes were dazed. What the hell is this? There are many patterns drawn on it. He knows every pattern, but he doesn't recognize all the patterns together.

"It seems that you need help, uncle."

The voice suddenly sounded from behind startled the uncle. He was about to scold him, but when he turned around and saw the person coming, his face suddenly became puzzled.

"Why are you two little ghosts here, what about Xiaolan and the others?"

That's right, it was Conan and Hattori who came here. They came to find clues. Most of the temples in Kyoto are related to Benkei, so they came here to try their luck.

"They went shopping, uncle, can you let me see the codes and letters in your hand?"

"Here, I don't see any tricks, and it's even more impossible for you."

The uncle thought he was better than Hattori, so he handed over the letter casually, not thinking he could find any clues.
