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

Chapter 282: Hakodate Mystery: The Battle for the Treasure of Toshogu Shrine

Ooka Momiji greeted, "Heiji, you finally answered the phone."

"Hongye, how did you know my number?"

"It's Iori. Check it out for me."

"Yesterday, there were a lot of calls from numbers I didn't recognize. Could it be that..."

"Yes, I called. Heiji, I went to Rehoro to look for you. I went to Otaru and Abashiri, and now I'm in Wakkanai. Can you see clearly? This place is the northernmost tip of the island country."

"Hey, I don't have time to read this right now. I'm busy investigating a case right now."

"Heiji, can you let me take a look at that whiteboard? Show it to me quickly."

Hattori Heiji had no choice but to turn the camera over to show Ooka Momiji.

Ooka Momiji looked at the content on the whiteboard and gave a direct answer: "This is related to Toshizo Hijikata's Tououhakushu."

Hattori Heiji then asked: "What is the content of the "Touyoku Hakushu"?"

“《丰玉发句集》里总共收录他作的 41 句俳句。其中提到月亮的有 6 句,第 5 句白牡丹欲以月夜染霜色、第 19 句新月映水底春之雨、第 20 句、第 22 句、第 35 句、第 36 句。”

"That's it, you've done a great job, Hongye!" After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Hattori Heiji walked back to the table and frowned slightly: "So this is a cross table. The table itself is very simple. What's important is the key to be able to decipher it."

"Those are the six haiku from the Touou Hakushu." Conan stroked his chin as if thinking, "First, the top row of the fifth haiku contains 0-9, that is, the top row represents the ones, and the left column represents the tens.

In this way, the kana corresponding to the fifth sentence is followed by the 19th sentence, where 1 and 9 correspond. Following this pattern, the 22nd, 35th, 20th, and 36th sentences, arranged in order, will give the answer. ”

Hattori Heiji looked at the information on the table. "The front part should be northeast. What about the back part?"

"Northeast, could it be..." Conan looked up and took out his phone from his pocket, "I saw it on TV before. When Goryokaku was built, the northeast direction corresponded to the ghost gate. So a shrine was built there."

Hattori Heiji suddenly realized: "The latter part means 'demon', and the star-shaped eye holes refer to Goryokaku?"

"Well, I think that's the case." Conan looked at the six swords on the table. "If you look closely, if you put the guards of these six swords together, they roughly form the shape of Goryokaku. In other words, the treasure is in that shrine."

Disguised as Kawazoe Yoshihisa, Kuroba Toichi used his phone to search for clues, “But even if it was there, it’s gone now.

Goryokaku was built in 1864. At that time, Toshogu Shrine was built to suppress the ghost gate in the northeast. However, in the subsequent Hakodate War, the main hall of the shrine was burned down.

Officer Nakamori asked, "Can't find it?"

Kudo Yuki stared at the paper spread out on the table, her eyebrows slightly frowned. "No, the treasures should have been moved away after the temple burned down. Axie Keisaburo designed this code before and during the war, much later than the Hakodate War."

Conan continued: "Could the password refer to the location of the treasure after it is moved?"

"Indeed." Kuroba Touichi continued to search for information on his phone. "Although the shrine was burned down, the statue seemed to be safe and sound. Later, it moved around the city and finally ended up at Toshogu Shrine in Hokkaido."

Officer Nakamori looked closer.

Kudo Yuki frowned, noticing something unusual. "Officer Nakamori, it looks like someone has installed something under your collar."

Officer Nakamori pulled the electronic device from under his collar and twisted it in his hand angrily. "This is a bug. When was it installed?"

The brother and sister said in unison: "It was the ward last night."

Officer Nakamori was furious: "That bastard Takuzo Axie!" After saying that, he went to find him angrily.

Upon seeing this, Hei Yu Daoyi said, "I will report this matter to Inspector Nishimura first."

After saying that, he also walked out.

When Kudo Yuki saw Kaito Kid, who was dressed as Okita Souji, gestured to her to say goodbye, she nodded slightly. Then, Kaito Kid left quietly.

Hattori Heiji rested his chin on one hand and his other hand on his elbow, muttering in annoyance, "We were tricked. He wanted us to solve the puzzle while he ran over to get the treasure first."

Conan's eyes were deep as he analyzed, "And the Kadokura gang is still eyeing Takuzo, so they should go and grab the treasure as well."

"We are completely behind now." Hattori Heiji looked up, "Hey, Chongtian is gone."

Hearing this, Conan ran to the seat where he had been sitting before, "That Kidd guy..."

Kudo Yuki leaned against the wall calmly, with a slight smile on her face. "He left a long time ago. He said hello to me before he left! Don't you two plan to go to Hokkaido Toshogu Shrine to check out the situation first? If you don't leave now, Kaito Kid will be the first to take the treasure."

Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other and immediately took action.

At this time, Shushu poked his little head out of her pocket. Kudo Xue gently touched Shushu's fur, with a mysterious smile on her lips.

Shushu muttered, "Xiaoxue, find a place to sit down and watch the show."

Kudo Yuki responded with telepathy: "Well, Rat has chosen a perfect location, and maybe he can help Conan in the dark!"

"Okay, I'll do it right away." After saying that, it started to calculate with its auxiliary function. "Xiaoxue, the best location right now is next to the nearest railway track."

Kudo Yuki continued the telepathic conversation: "Okay, I'll find a taxi over there." As she said that, she waved to call a taxi and rushed to the railway track.

At the same time, Takuzo Axe walked out of the ward with his bodyguards, holding the phone to his ear and listening to the bodyguards' reports.

"Got it." After Fujiang Takuzo hung up the phone, he took off the gauze wrapped around his head with one hand and laughed triumphantly: "Hahaha, let's go to Hokkaido Toshogu Shrine right away."

Brian D. Kadokura was sitting in a luxurious car, and several other cars were escorting him. He was also listening to his subordinates' reports: "He's finally going to take action. Just keep a close eye on Axe Takuzo."

After hanging up the phone, Brian D. Monkura smiled smugly: "Humph, the treasure must be mine."

Kudo Yuki came to the railway track, found a secluded spot and sat down, observing the surroundings. Shushu was moving restlessly in her pocket.

"Xiaoxue, I feel like something is going to happen." Shushu muttered softly.

Kudo Yuki had the same premonition in her heart. She knew that this battle for the treasure would not end so easily.

Shushu placed the system screen in front of Kudo Yuki, and the location on the screen was exactly Toshogu Shrine in Hokkaido.

Near Toshogu Shrine in Hokkaido, Kaito Kid has arrived in advance. He dressed up as Kogoro Mori and knocked on the gate of the shrine.

A shrine maiden turned around upon hearing the voice and asked, "Excuse me, are you here to pay your respects?"

"I'm sorry to bother you so suddenly. My name is Maori Kogoro, and I'm a detective. Actually, I was commissioned to find something related to Axie Keisaburo. I wonder if you have such a thing here?"

The witch clenched her hands slightly, and her delicate fingers seemed to reveal her inner tension. "No, we don't have that kind of thing in our shrine."

"Yeah, that's how it is." Kaito Kid scratched his head and gave an apologetic smile, "Oh, you see, I was so abrupt. I'm so sorry."

As he spoke, he slowly closed the door and turned to leave through the main entrance.

There was a small house in the bushes not far away. Kaito Kidd appeared quietly, his eyes fell on a wooden board right below. "The material is different."

He gently pressed the wooden board, and a mechanism appeared inside. His finger pressed the button, triggering the mechanism, and an entrance appeared directly below. "Found it."

Kaito Kidd climbed the stairs to the bottom.

In the dim passage, only the flashlight in his hand emitted a faint light, illuminating the unknown road ahead.

The real Kogoro Mori was in an empty room in the Hakodate Police Station. He was leaning back in a chair alone, snoring evenly and sleeping soundly.

Kaito Kid changed his costume and took a flashlight to illuminate the surroundings. He walked to the place where the treasure was placed and gently picked up the wooden box. "Finally, I saw the treasure hidden by Fu Jiang."

Suddenly, Conan and Hattori Heiji arrived.

"That's enough, Kidd."

"I won't let you take that treasure away, Kidd."

Kaito Kid turned around and smiled, "That's great. If you want, come and give it a try." After he finished speaking, he stepped on the ground and used his cloak to block his vision.

A dazzling white light came out from the place where they had just stepped on. Conan and Hattori Heiji immediately closed their eyes to avoid the strong light.

Kaito Kid took this opportunity to run to the exit and put the wooden box next to the exit. "It's a piece of cake."

Just as he was about to stand up, he saw Fujiang Takuzo standing there waiting with his hand outstretched. "Thank you for your hard work. Give it to me."

Takuzo Axe's eyes were full of expectation and greed.

The next second, several cars of Brian D. Menkura arrived and stopped. The harsh sound of brakes broke the silence and made people feel nervous.

Seeing this, Kaito Kid immediately hugged the wooden box, jumped up, stepped on Axie Takuzo's shoulder, and ran away along the roof.

Takuzo Axe's bodyguards saw him running away and immediately chased after him.

Kaito Kidd fled into the woods, and Brian D. Kadokura's men chased him and fired at him. The sound of the gunshots echoed in the woods, making people tremble with fear.

Kaito Kidd jumped onto a tree branch holding a wooden box, raised the Magic Pistol in his hand and pulled the trigger. Then he was aimed at the branch under his feet and dropped into the air, and the wooden box fell into the grass.

"Go to hell! Kaito Kidd." The shouts of his men were filled with murderous intent.

Kaito Kid used the rope of his Magic Pistol to wrap around a nearby branch and ran behind the tree trunk to avoid the bullets. "Damn it, they're serious."

Brian D. Kadokura's men saw the wooden box and reached out to take it.

Just at this moment, Hattori Heiji appeared here riding a motorcycle with Conan on his back.

Conan held the intercepted wooden box in his arms.

The subordinate was stunned and asked, "What is going on?"

The other men stepped forward and continued to chase. "Don't just stand there, come over here."

Kaito Kidd hid behind a tree, "Please work harder, detectives."

Hattori Heiji rode his motorcycle through the bushes and across the road.

Several cars behind were chasing closely.

Hattori Heiji looked ahead. "Are they chasing us?"

"Yes." Conan hugged the wooden box tightly.

Hattori Heiji passed through the Hakodate City High School Men's Kendo Tournament, and several cars followed closely behind. He glanced back, his eyes full of vigilance.

Conan saw a car in front of him about to hit him. He shouted loudly: "Heiji."

Hattori Heiji dodged on his motorcycle and missed the car. The thrilling scene made people's hearts rise to their throats.

Seeing this, the cars behind had to change their route and continue chasing.

Conan was thrown out holding the wooden box, and was caught by Fucheng Sheng and put on the back seat of the motorcycle. He opened his eyes and said, "Brother Sheng, why are you here?"

Fucheng Sheng drove forward on his motorcycle. "I saw you guys chasing each other in a big way before, so I wanted to see what was going on. I was also thinking about Xiao Heye..."

A smile appeared on his face, but before he could finish his words, another car came running up the road.

Fu Chengsheng dodged, and several cars behind him followed closely. He twisted the accelerator to increase speed. "It seems that now is not the time."

Hattori Heiji pressed the pedal ignition switch of the motorcycle. "Damn it, that guy is here."

Fukjo-sei kept going forward until he was blocked by several cars from the front and back and then he stopped his motorcycle. He put Conan on the steps behind him.

The bodyguards got out of the car, all holding guns. "Hey, kid, give us the box."

Fucheng Sheng held the wooden sword. "Leave this to me, you go quickly."

"But..." Conan hesitated.

"But in exchange, you must tell Xiao Heye that I saved you."

Conan turned and ran away.

A bodyguard said, "Stop right there."

Fukjo Sei blocked their way with a wooden sword, "Looks like I have to get serious."

Conan walked through the crowd and came to the location where Kudo Yuki was hiding. A car was chasing him from behind.

Kudo Yuki silently said in her heart: [Sign in.]

"Ding, congratulations to Xiaoxue for signing in successfully today and getting +200 mall points and 10 Huidie bulletproof darts.

The current mall points are 2100, and the system space contains: healing elixir, recent information on the winery organization, location distribution map of the winery base, and 10 Huidie bulletproof darts. Please continue to sign in daily, Xiaoxue."

Then, 10 Huidie bulletproof darts fell into Kudo Yuki's hands. She looked around and saw that the person in the car was Brian D. Kadokura, and next to him sat his men who were about to shoot Conan.

Kudo Yuki's eyes flashed, and without caring about anything else, she directly threw out 6 Huidie bulletproof darts to help Conan block the fatal bullets.

Conan looked up with his helmet on and saw the darts shot by his sister. He dodged the bullets from behind by leaning sideways. He ran while holding the wooden box and shouted, "Everyone, run, run quickly."

However, a bullet hit the wooden box, and Conan fell backwards. Hattori Heiji caught him with one hand, placed him on the motorcycle, and continued to move forward.

Brian D. Kadokura in the car immediately grabbed the gun from his men and said, "You can't even deal with a little kid."

The subordinate apologized: "I'm sorry, boss."

"Let me do it." Brian D. Kadokura shot at Hattori Heiji's tire.

Bullets were fired and the motorcycle tire burst.

Hattori Heiji urgently protected Conan, and the wooden box was thrown out. Before the train arrived, the two were thrown out to the other side of the train track.

The train came and crushed the wooden box to pieces.
