How to be a great detective

Chapter 87 The Detective Step 86

Conan has always known that telling a lie may make the present and the future calm for a period of time, but when he wants to reveal the truth to the person he concealed originally, it will be the time when all the cruel punishments will pour down on him .

For example, when he recovered his real body and told Xiaolan that he was actually Conan who had been living in her house, he believed that what he welcomed was Xiaolan's karate teaching.This is not a conclusion that requires thinking and reasoning, but the common sense he possessed as Xiaolan's childhood sweetheart.

But common sense also has certain limitations. For example, Conan doesn't know how long Xiaolan will "educate" him with her karate. This answer can only be known after he survives by chance.

But Conan didn't expect that the punishment for telling another lie would fall on him first, compared to concealing that he was Kudo Shinichi.

Conan had expected that Ran would definitely ask Toru Amuro himself for confirmation, of course, not at this time.

Yayoi is still standing here, considering Yayoi's mood, Xiaolan should not ask Toru Amuro, whom she likes, in front of her, if there are other women she likes.

After all, Xiaolan is not Conan who spread this lie, and the possibility of Toru Amuro answering [yes] or [no] is [-]-[-] in her mind.It's fun to answer no, but if the answer is yes, it is equivalent to Yayoi being rejected in public.

Because everyone knows that Yayoi likes Toru Amuro.

Xiaolan took a look at Yayoi and said, "No, how could Mr. Amuro do something badly?"

Conan thanked Yayoi for being there, otherwise Xiaolan would have asked Amuro Toru for confirmation just now.

Although Conan felt that he took advantage of this time to secretly explain to Xiaolan that he had misread before, and he would inevitably be criticized and educated, but it was better than after Xiaolan asked Amuro Toru and turned around to find himself, the rumor-monger, for an explanation. .

And without being asked by Xiaolan, Toru Amuro, the victim, probably wouldn't know that he almost lost his precious love because of his own reasons.

As the person who accidentally caused the current situation, Conan also chimed in: "Yes, Mr. Amuro is so powerful."

"But everyone's attitude is still a bit strange," Toru Amuro smiled with obvious confusion, "Is it my illusion?"

"It's Mr. Amuro's illusion!" Xiaolan made a final decision.

In order to avoid Amuro Toru's further questioning, Conan walked up to Amuro Toru and asked, "Mr. Amuro, are you here to find Uncle Kogoro?"

Toru Amuro actually noticed that everyone was hiding something from him, but judging from everyone's reaction, now is not a good time to ask questions, so he followed Conan's intention and changed the topic to his intention of coming.

"Actually, it's because of the two young customers who came to our store just now. They disappeared after ordering. I thought they had something to do, or they thought it was too boring to sit on their seats and go out to play for a while." .But when I put the meal on their table, I found a note full of strange messages beside their table."

"This must be the code they left behind. Only by deciphering the code they left can we find them and discover their hidden secrets." said Wakita Kanezuri, who has mastered various reasoning routines.

Undoubtedly, the reasoning routine mastered by Wakita Kenzo is the daily experience of Yayoi and the others, and they don't think there is anything wrong with Wakita Kenzo's words.Especially Toru Amuro, if he didn't think so, he wouldn't have left Café Poirot during working hours and went upstairs to look for Kogoro Mori.

Everyone had no objection, and Wakita Kenze continued: "Mr. Amuro, please hurry up and take out that message."

Under the urging of Wakita Kennori, Toru Amuro put the message on the table, and several detectives gathered around to read it.

"What are these densely written things?" Mouri Kogoro first expressed his thoughts.

Wakita Kane stared at the paper, almost staring at a hole, but he still couldn't see what was written on it. He raised his head and said, "Even if it is classified according to different colors, if you connect them together Reading, and I have no idea what they wrote. Are you sure it's not a child's prank, last time a super troublesome kid came to our store, and it almost drove our store manager crazy."

"It shouldn't be causing trouble, because Ms. Azusa, that is, my colleague, was asked by the two guests if the sleeping Kogoro is upstairs." Considering that Wakita Kanezuri didn't know Enomoto Azusa, Toru Amuro deliberately briefed Introduced her identity.

"Then it was aimed at me. Sure enough, my reputation is known to children from 99 to one year old." Mori Kogoro swept away the irritability of not being able to decipher the code before, and began to be complacent.

Because the concentration of detectives here is too high, as the only non-detective, Xiao Lan did not join the ranks of thinking about the code, but this does not conflict with her watching the reasoning of these detectives.So after hearing what Mori Kogoro said, he stood behind him decisively and reminded him not to forget what he was going to do.

"Dad, you'd better come up with a coded answer quickly."

"Oh, I just changed my thinking a little bit to activate my brain." Mori Kogoro defended himself.

Conan, who was also at a loss for these codes, heard what Mori Kogoro said: Hehe, I believe you are a ghost.

Wakita Kenzo asked again: "Did those two children only leave these messages?"

Toru Amuro replied with great certainty: "I'm sure they only left this piece of paper."

"That's difficult." He said it was difficult, but Wakita Kennori laughed, "But difficult cases are suitable for competitions, aren't they? Since the three apprentices of Master Kogoro are already thinking If we have the answer to this code, then let’s just use this as the content of the competition. Let’s see who is the one who is the best at reasoning among Master Kogoro’s apprentices.”

"Competition? Sounds interesting." Toru Amuro was quite interested in this.

Because Wakita Kenze didn't talk about Yayoi's reaction just now when he mentioned the game, and just as he said, the three of them have already gathered here to conduct their own reasoning, and now they just added a name of the game stop.Therefore, Yayoi did not express her resistance as before, and nodded yes, agreeing to participate in this competition.

However, the announcement of the start of the competition did not make the three contestants suddenly have a flash of inspiration and come up with the secret code for the answer.

Conan, who was not able to participate in this game because he was not Mori Kogoro's apprentice, but he didn't care at all, thought for a long time.

"Mr. Amuro, since you said they are young guests, how young are they?"

"The older one should be in the third or fourth grade of elementary school, and the younger one is about the same age as you, Conan."

Although Yayoi knew from seeing the color of the crayon on the message that the person who made this message would not be too old, but she didn't expect to be so young, she was a complete child.

How would a child leave a code?

Yayoi really didn't understand the children nowadays, so she had to squat down and ask Conan who was at this age: "Conan, do you use some special methods when chatting with your classmates? For example, to prevent adults from knowing your In the content of the chat, some words were deliberately changed."

Although Conan was mixed among a group of elementary school students, he was completely beyond the standard for his own age. It can only be said that he knew a little better than Yayoi, but he still couldn't understand what the children of today were thinking about every day.

Oh, except Yuantai, who basically wants to eat eel rice as soon as he arrives at the restaurant.

Seeing Conan shaking his head, Yayoi felt that he had lost his mind, and was about to think about it in a different way. Before he stood up straight again, he heard Conan in front of him yell.

"I see!"

Successfully attracted everyone's attention.

"What do you know?" Wakita Kenze looked at Conan with interest.

Conan also realized that his actions just now were too eye-catching, so he laughed dryly, "My friends seem to have used similar methods to write letters to each other. I thought about asking them, maybe I can get the answer."

At that time, Conan was actually invited, but Conan felt that it was too boring and childish, so he rejected the invitation of the three of them as coldly as Xiao Ai.

It also led to a problem now that Conan had to seek their help to learn the information that the code wanted to convey to them.This is completely different from normal reasoning, because young children use their unique communication system.

This is the same as giving a sentence of English to a person who can't speak English at all to translate. Even if he can reason, he still can't understand it if he doesn't understand it.

Before sending a text message to the three real kids of the Detective Boys, Conan took another piece of white paper and a pen from Mori Kogoro's desk, and rearranged the content of the code.Grouping is by color, arrangement is also by color, but not the order in which they appear on the paper.

Yayoi saw the clues from Conan's arrangement, "Red, orange, green, blue, purple, it's in the order of the colors of the rainbow."

"The lack of yellow may be because writing in yellow is easy for people to see clearly. If it is cyan, it may be because the colored pens in their hands do not have this color." Toru Amuro added his guess.

"But it's hard to think of a rainbow when there are only five colors. How did you think of it?" Wakita Kenze asked.

Conan quickly moved out his art teacher, "Because the art teacher taught us to draw rainbows some time ago, so I just thought of it. But it doesn't have to be in this order."

Conan is very humble on the surface, but in fact he doesn't think his reasoning is wrong.

Soon, Yuantai and the others told Conan the correct answer over the phone.Of course, in addition to telling the answer, they also laughed at Conan, to the effect that they told him not to play this game with them. Now they can't even master the simplest communication method among children.

Conan: Haha.

But Conan didn't argue with them on this topic, so it wasn't necessary.

What he needs to do now is to go to the address left in the code and ask the two children what their purpose for leaving the code is.

A group of people drove to their destination and knocked on the door of their house, only to realize that they hoped that Mori Kogoro would persuade his parents not to continue gambling.Because Mori Kogoro is a big man who often appears on TV, he claims that any problem can be solved as long as he is found.

As for why they left after leaving a message, it was because of a very simple reason, they did not have the ability to pay Kogoro Mori's commission fee.In fact, the amount ordered at Café Poirot was already a huge sum for the two of them.

Can a detective change a person's character?

Of course not.

Especially those who are addicted to gambling, it is even more difficult to persuade, but under the expectant eyes of the two children, Mori Kogoro patted his chest and said to them: "Leave it to me, there is nothing in the world. Difficulties can stump the sleeping Kogoro, hahahaha."

Mori Kogoro often gives people a very unreliable feeling (Yayoi has a filter that does not belong to this category), and is prone to pride and arrogance, but he is not stingy in giving others kindness.

There are many troubles in the world, which may not be solved, but someone needs to stand up.

This time Mori Kogoro stood up.

He's not helpless either.Among the commissions he resolved while he was sober, the majority were affair investigations.Although gambling has nothing to do with having an affair, both require the use of the technology of stalking.

When it comes to stalking, I'm the best guy in the world.

When Mori Kogoro thought this way, he decisively ignored the big bug on Yayoi.

And he has also been a policeman, and he has also encountered gamblers similar to the parents of the two children in front of him, and he has mastered some coping methods.

"Two children, I found the note you left after you ordered the meal before, so we haven't cooked your meal yet. Next time you pass by Poirot, please come in and taste the meal you ordered before."

From the environment of their home, Toru Amuro can be sure that the parents of the two children don't go home very much.Today's spending in Poirot is likely to affect their food choices for some time to come.It would hurt the self-esteem of the child to directly say that I invite you to dinner, so it is better to choose such a roundabout way.

Yayoi remembered that Toru Amuro said that he only found the note when he was serving the meal, so she naturally understood that Toru Amuro planned to use her salary to advance the food expenses of the two children next time.

She recalled what she saw at the ball last time, as if two Amuro Toru appeared in front of her.

One is an angel and the other is a demon.
