Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Kobayashi Sumiko showed the paper to Kudo Yuki and Amuro Toru. The code read:

See Monet, attack planes, don't paint, doctors can't lie, don't burn the amulet of 8 9.

Toru Amuro folded his hands over his chest, thinking about the meaning of this.

Ai Huihara whispered behind Conan: "Well, if I find it in front of everyone, I can't take it away."

Conan blinked and muttered quietly, "It's okay. I'll find it before they do, and quietly take it out and give it to you. I'll give you the message your sister left 13 years ago."

Kobayashi Sumiko took the paper back and put one hand on her waist. "First, let's split up according to this code and look for the time capsule."

"That's true." Takumi Murata took out his phone from his pocket. "Then I'll use my phone to take a picture of the secret code and send it to everyone. Sorry, this way we can split into groups to look for it."

Ichihashi Seiko and Yanagimachi Gaku also took out their cell phones.

"Well, if one group finds the time capsule first, they can use their cell phones to notify the other groups, how about that?"

"Understood. You are not allowed to read the contents until you are notified and meet up."

Conan spoke directly: "Then, I, Huibara, Ayumi, and Mr. Murata will be in a group with Sister Yuki and Brother Amuro. Teacher Kobayashi and Mitsuhiko will be in a group with Doctor Ichihashi. And, Teacher Wakasa and Genta will be in a group with firefighter Mr. Yanagimachi. Let's divide into groups like this to search, okay?"

Mitsuhiko and Genta walked up to Conan, dissatisfaction written on their faces.

"not good."

"I object too."

"Why is Conan the only one in a group with the girls?"

"You are so cunning. And Sister Xue and Brother Amuro have also been assigned to you."

Conan smiled, but in his heart he was thinking: "Ah, so you care about this."

Kobayashi Sumiko and Wakasa Rumi reconciled with a smile.

"Oh, the teachers are girls too."

"We can just regroup later."

Amuro Toru nodded slightly, "Let's act according to this grouping first. Time is running out, and finding the time capsule as soon as possible is the key."

Then, the group walked into the teaching building, and the Junior Detectives found their own shoes and put them on. Murata Takumi, Yanagimachi Gaku, and Ichihashi Seiko slowly paced in the corridor, their eyes full of memories, looking at their childhood campus.

“It’s still the same here.”

"Yes."

"That's right."

The three of them stopped to change shoes, and their thoughts involuntarily turned to Miyano Akemi.

Conan walked over to them in small steps, "Hey, what's going on?"

"Feel sorry."

"A little distracted."

Kobayashi Sumiko and Wakasa Rumi heard the sound and turned back to find the few people.

"It turns out to be here."

"Then let's go."

Conan held his phone, looking at the screen as he walked, "First, let's go to the principal's office."

Ayumi looked confused: "Why?"

"Didn't the code start with the words 'You can see Monet'? Our principal loves the painter Monet. He decorated his office with a replica of his work and is very proud of it. So, there must be a painting somewhere."

Toru Amuro walked in front and reached out to open the door.

The door slowly opened, and everyone's eyes turned to the wall of the principal's office. However, hanging on the wall was another painting.

Conan let out a surprised "Ahhh".

Ai Huihara looked at the painting and said, "The decoration painting is not by Monet, but looks like the work of a student of this school."

Amuro Toru looked at the annotations below the painting and whispered, "It's famous."

Kudo Yukiya leaned closer to look at the label, which read: 6th grade, Class A, Takumi Murata.

Murata Takumi looked at the painting with a nostalgic expression on his face. "This is our winning work. I really miss it."

Toru Amuro wanted to check for clues further, but was stopped by Yuki Kudo. He turned around and saw Yuki Kudo gently shaking her head and whispering in Toru Amuro's ear.

"Toru, let Conan and the others look for this. We just need to know if there is anything that proves the existence of the time capsule. In addition, we can also listen to other people's impressions of Mingmei. Conan can handle it."

Amuro Toru nodded slightly, agreeing with her suggestion.

Conan lifted the decorative painting slightly to check if there was any clue on the back. "If there is any information written on the back of Monet's painting..."

Toru Amuro had been paying attention to the situation around him and noticed that there were words on the wall that were not fully displayed, but he did not raise any voice to remind them.

Huiyuan Ai continued: "Then we have to find out the whereabouts of the replica."

Ayumi walked behind Haibara Ai, a trace of worry on her face. "But the principal is not at work today."

Conan stopped when he saw there were no clues. "Anyway, let's look for something we can see."

Takumi Murata frowned, "You'll be scolded if you look through things carelessly."

Conan continued searching under the table, "We can just explain the situation later. By the way, what kind of person is Miyano Akemi who made this code?"

"Let me think about it." Murata Takumi's brows relaxed, and he fell into memories. "She has a cheerful personality, is gentle and considerate, and is considerate of others. All the classmates in the class like her very much. The boys are all obsessed with her, right?"

Huiyuan Ai stopped looking for something and asked, "Is what you said true?"

"Well, to be honest, I was one of them. But she politely refused." Takumi Murata smiled and scratched his head.

"Is that so?" The corners of Haibara Ai's mouth rose, and she had a new understanding of her sister.

Ayumi said: "Ai, you seem very happy."

Conan's face says: Thank me!

Kudo Yuki watched the interaction between the few people and said softly, "It seems that Mingmei is a very popular person."

Amuro Toru nodded gently, "Amei has always been like this, kind and gentle."

Takumi Murata looked at the painting, a little shy. "Even this painting, in fact, is her..."

Kudo Yuki looked at Takumi Murata's reaction and leaned close to Toru Amuro's ear and whispered, "Toru, do you think Mr. Murata wants to say that the painting was also thanks to Akemi? You look so shy."

Amuro Toru tilted his head and responded softly: "It is very likely that Mingmei will always bring surprises to people inadvertently."

Conan watched their interaction, shook his head helplessly, and continued to look for clues around him. Huihara Ai listened to Takumi Murata telling the story about Miyano Akemi.

In the health room, Kobayashi Sumiko and Ichihashi Seiko were chatting leisurely.

"You are still in the internship period."

"Well, I have to rotate to various departments, so I'm busy all the time."

“It seems to be very hard.”

Ichihashi Seiko looked down at Mitsuhiko, only to see him exploring the sink. "By the way, what are you doing?"

"I'm investigating the sink. Doctors are not allowed to lie. The English word for lie is 'TELLALE'. So I suspect the sink in the health room is suspicious, although I haven't found anything yet."

"You are so smart."

Kobayashi Sumiko also smiled and murmured, "You are very smart to be a doctor, aren't you? You used to have top grades."

"Yeah." Ichihashi Seiko thought of Miyano Akemi, "But there's also a bit of...luck involved."

In the Family Medicine Department, Genta listened to Yanagimachi Gaku's story with a look of shock on his face. "Hey, is this true? Did you guys put out the fire in the apartment in Beika Town a while ago?"

"Yes, it's our Beihua Fire Department."

Wakasa Rumi interjected, "Great! That fire must be serious."

Yanagimachi Yue scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Besides, I saved two children who didn't escape in time."

Yuan Tai praised: "That's amazing, you are really a hero."

“After all, this is my job.”

Wakasa Rumi looked at the stove, "But, the code ends with "Don't burn the 8 9's guardian charm. I saw 'Don't burn it', so I think the clue is in the family department where fire is used."

Yanagimachi Yue stood in another place looking for clues, "But there is nothing."

Yuan Tai looked at the cupboard and suddenly murmured, "So, Mr. Kobayashi said that the music room almost caught fire before."

"Well, it seems to be in the music room." Wakasa Rumi stroked her chin in thought. "Some of the paper cranes prepared for the choir competition were burned. It was about 14 to 15 years ago. Do you remember?"

Yanagimachi Gaku was silent for a moment. "I don't remember the small fire in the music room."

Everyone gathered in front of the breeding hut, with Takumi Murata, Seiko Ichihashi and Gaku Yanagimachi standing together.

Murata Takumi was feeling a little disappointed. "Anyway, I searched everywhere, including the principal's office, the health room, the art room, the family planning department, the science department, and the rooftop, but to no avail."

"So are we."

"So are we."

Mitsuhiko discovered the problem: "We didn't meet anyone from other groups when we were looking for them. It turns out we were staggered."

Ayumi nodded: "Yes."

Kobayashi Sumiko showed the code paper to everyone and suggested, "Well, let's show the code to the other students in the class. How about we all find it together?"

The three of them began to hesitate again.

"Ah, but no, let's just look for it ourselves for a while."

"Well, I also thought of some clues."

"It feels like we'll find something soon," Yanagimachi Gakuya agreed.

Hearing this, Conan put his hands in his pockets and took small steps to make a suggestion: "Then, the two teachers, Sister Xue, and Brother Amuro and I will come to help find it. There is still some work left in the breeding hut, so I'm sorry to bother you."

The three little ones and Haibara Ai nodded subconsciously: "Yeah." Then, the three little ones made shocked sounds.

The eight of them headed to the teaching building together, and Yanagimachi Gaku murmured, "First of all, the one at the beginning of the code can see Monet, right? Speaking of Monet."

Ichihashi Seiko added: "I think of the principal's office."

Takumi Murata explained: "But the paintings hanging inside now are my paintings."

Conan turned around and asked the two teachers: "Well, did the teacher call the principal?"

"Yes." Kobayashi Sumiko replied, "He said the painting is in his home, but there is nothing written on the painting."

Yanagimachi Gaku pretended to think: "If it's not on the back of the painting, then could it be on the wall?"

Ichihashi Seiko entered the principal's office and moved the painting with one hand. "Sure enough, there are words on the wall behind the painting."

"Really?" Yanagimachi Gaku leaned in to read the words, an excited look on his face.

Takumi Murata sighed: “I never noticed it before.”

Ichihashi Seiko asked everyone to look at the characters, "You can see it is Hiragana, and the letters marked are YO."

Kobayashi Sumiko and Wakasa Rumi were standing by the door.

“That’s a step forward.”

"Ah."

Ichihashi Shengzi was very excited, "If we continue like this, we can also solve the other codes."

Conan half-closed his eyes and looked at the three people in the room, secretly thinking about his next move.

Kudo Yuki squatted down and said to Conan with a smile: "Come on, little detective!"

Conan nodded in response to Kudo Yuki's encouragement.

Yanagimachi Gaku walked briskly with a ladder and opened the door. "The next code is to attack the plane. When we talk about attacking the plane, we think of the English word hijack, which can also be pronounced as high jack. In addition, jack also means socket. So the power socket with the clock plug inserted high up in the lecture hall is very suspicious."

Ichihashi Seiko and Murata Takumi looked at Yanagimachi Gaku's actions with worry in their eyes.

"Can it be done?"

"Don't fall down."

As they talked, they held the ladder, providing solid support for Yanagimachi-dake.

Yanagimachi Yue held the ladder handrails with both hands and climbed up step by step. "It's said that firefighters are the best at climbing high."

Takumi Murata looked up. "Is there anything written on it?"

Yanagimachi Gaku squinted his eyes and tried to make out. "It's all gray and a little hard to see clearly, but there's a hiragana U written on it."

Kobayashi Sumiko looked puzzled. "When spelled together with the first one we found, it's YOU. What does it mean?"

Yanagimachi Yue came down from the ladder and said, "It's okay. We'll know once we find the remaining three."

Takumi Murata led everyone to the art room. "Because the third code is not to paint, we came to the art room to look for it before."

Ichihashi Seiko was confused. "Where should I look for it?"

Conan squatted down and looked at the clock, and he took a picture of it with his mobile phone.

Yanagimachi Gaku noticed Conan's action and said, "Little boy, did you find anything?"

Conan quickly stuffed his phone back into his pocket, "Still looking."

Takumi Murata looked around the art room, recalling the clues in his mind. "Oh, yeah, speaking of places where you can't draw. I remember that we were forbidden to draw on the rooftop."

Ichihashi Seiko also reacted immediately, "I remember it too. It seems that a classmate's drawing board was blown over by the wind, and he almost fell off the rooftop. Since he was not going to paint, there might be something written on the door leading to the rooftop."

Ichihashi Seiko walked quickly to the door, and Murata Takumi turned back and reminded him, "Yanagimachi, come and take a look too."

Yanagimachi Gaku nodded, and the five of them went upstairs together.

Conan was the last one to come in, cell phone in hand.

Kobayashi Sumiko said anxiously, "Hurry up, Conan should follow too."

Amuro Toru saw Conan lost in thought, and looked at the photos he had taken on his phone with Kudo Yuki. They saw the hiragana letters GU next to the 7 o'clock position on the clock face.

When Takumi Murata reached the rooftop, he squatted on the ground, his eyes fixed on the bottom of the door handle. "It's GU, it's GU. There's a GU written under the door handle of the door to the rooftop."

When Toru Amuro and his siblings heard Takumi Murata's call, they immediately quickened their pace and followed him upstairs.

Ichihashi Seiko looked at the words on the door handle, with a hint of emotion in his tone. "However, it has been thirteen years, and the words are still there."

Kobayashi Sumiko explained, "Maybe it's because this place has been locked up since that incident. Not many people go to the rooftop, so not many people touch the door handle here."

"I see." Ichihashi Seiko stood up straight, his eyes full of admiration. "Akira even anticipated this, how amazing."
