Detective Conan no Miya Yuzu

【57】Christmas song

December has arrived, but the streets have not become desolate because of the arrival of winter.Walking on the street, you can see Christmas posters plastered on the facade of the store, and there are also Christmas trees in front of the store, decorated with lights and festoons, which is very lively.Christmas carols were also uttered from the mouths of passing children, with a festive atmosphere that added a touch of warmth to this cold day.

one two three children

four five six kids

seven eight cute children

Let's hold hands and be friends

"Ayumi, where did you hear this song?" Conan was curious, but he had never heard this song.

"Huh?" Ayumi shook her head, "I don't know where I heard it, I just remembered it suddenly."

Conan didn't care either, only that Ayumi heard it from other places.

It's just, why did everyone around know this song within two days, and they only knew these three lines, but they couldn't sing the rest.

On the day he heard the fourth sentence, when Conan returned home, he saw a missing person notice on the page of the newspaper. A family's child had disappeared.

"Did you see it?"

The next day, Ayumi asked Mitsuhiko and Genta who were around Conan, "Is that kid from the newspaper yesterday Koike from our next class?"

"Yes, yes, I was also surprised when I saw it." Mitsuhiko echoed.

"You mean that our classmate from the class next door disappeared?" Conan always felt that this matter was a bit strange.

Seeing that Conan was so interested, the children became excited, "Conan, is there any case?"

The three pairs of eyes looked at Conan brightly, leaving Conan speechless, aren't you afraid?

"Do you have this home address named Koike?" Conan asked.

"Yeah." Ayumi laughed, "The Koike family lives next to my house."

What a coincidence.Conan narrowed his eyes, and he would know if he went to have a look.

-

"Are you Xiaochi's friends?" It was a woman who opened the door, her face was haggard, and she could see how much Xiaochi's disappearance had brought her a blow.

"Yes." The crisp voices of the four children made the woman see her son in a trance, her eyes were moist, and she turned around to let the four children in.

The four children sat on the sofa and looked around. Conan regretted bringing these three people here. They are really bear children.

"Wow, this doll is so cute." Ayumi saw the doll next to the sofa and hugged it happily.

"One, two, three children, four, five, six children, seven, eight cute children, we all hold hands and become friends, and give a doll to the children"

A familiar ballad sounded, and Conan was keenly aware that this ballad was a little different from the previous ones.

"Mother Xiaochi, who is this doll?"

While the woman brought the juice, Conan pointed to the doll in Ayumi's arms and asked.

"This doll..." The woman stared at it for a long time, "When was it here?" After a long time, she shook her head, "I don't remember either, I just remember that Xiaochi liked it very much."

Without any useful information from Xiaochi's mother, the few of them could only go back home.

"Ayumi, where did you hear this song?" Conan asked again.

"I don't remember, but I heard it on the road one day, and then I remembered it." Ayumi shook her head, "Conan, what's wrong with this song?"

"The song you sing is known to be cute, but today's doll's song has the next line." Conan stared at Ayumi, "Can you remember anything else?"

"I saw a man in black clothes, and the song came from him." Ayumi suddenly thought of something and said anxiously.

The person in black is a black organization?Conan only felt that the blood all over his body was frozen, and he was completely lost in the cold.

A few days later, another child disappeared, also a child from Didan Primary School.

Conan and the three children go to the missing family.

Conan saw the music box on the piano in the corner of the living room at first sight, and intuitively told him what clues the music box would tell him.

"One, two, three children, four, five, six children, seven, eight cute children, we all become friends hand in hand, a doll is given to the children, a music box is put in half, and a book is read to the eighth. Page.."

Put it here, the music box stopped, the front is the same as before, but this time there is an extra sentence.

Conan memorized the lyrics, the song should not end here.

"Ke, Conan..." Ayumi tugged at Conan's clothes in fear.

Children are very smart, and the smartest of the three is Mitsuhiko. "Conan, the lyrics in this song say that the people involved are missing, so the next one is the kid who got the book?" Mitsuhiko couldn't help trembling.

"Yeah." Conan nodded, "Very likely."

However, with only this clue, how to determine the next victim?

Conan scratched his head irritably, this matter is very tricky.

-

Yuzu didn't know about Le Mandi's troubles, but it didn't prevent her from worrying about Conan's safety.

"Conan, Xiao Ai, I heard that children in your school often go missing recently?" Yuzu asked worriedly.

"Yeah." Conan nodded, Xiao Ai ate quietly beside her, but her chopsticks paused.

With Conan's nod, Yuzu looked at the two seriously, "You two should be careful these days, this matter is definitely not that simple."

"Yeah." Conan was surprised by Yuzu's sharpness.

"En." Xiao Ai nodded slightly.

Yuzu patted the heads of the two of them casually, "My sister is also worried about you, that's why she's so serious."

I don't know what Conan is thinking, but Xiao Ai knows that her heart is warm.

-

The missing child this time is a very quiet girl in their class who usually likes to read books.

When Conan knew it, he felt a burst of rudeness.If he had been more careful, he would not have let the child disappear.

This time even Haibara, who was not interested, joined in.I found the book at the child's house, and even the lyrics behind it.On the eighth page of the book, someone reprinted and posted it:

one two three children

four five six kids

seven eight cute children

Let's hold hands and be friends

a doll for a child

put a music box in half

A book reads to page eight

five kids left

A kite rises into the air

After losing a pair of slippers

There are three children left

After biting off half of a candy

A small car rides to the intersection of the road

one child left

A story has not yet begun

A child opens his eyes

All the words of the song are there, and Conan copied them down.If the ballad is followed, eight more children will be missing next.

"Mitsuhiko, Yuantai, I seem to have seen those missing children somewhere."

Ayumi's nonsense made Conan raise his head from the ballad, "Ayumi, please speak clearly."

"It seems that I have seen them together somewhere before." Ayumi said to herself, but she couldn't think of it.

"Hearing what you said, I also feel as if I have seen them somewhere." Mitsuhiko echoed from the side.

The two of them couldn't get to the point, and Conan was a little anxious.

-

Conan's guess was correct, and three more children disappeared one after another.

Yuzu picks up Conan and Xiaoai every day, and because of this, Yuzu obviously has dark circles under her eyes.Conan was very distressed, but Yuzu was very stubborn. No matter what Conan said, Yuzu insisted on sending the two of them to and from school.

-

"Ah, I finally know where I saw these children." Mitsuhiko ran into the classroom with a photo and put it in front of Conan.

"How did you have a group photo of these people?" Conan couldn't hide his surprise when he saw the missing children one after another.

"This is a photo of our kindergarten forehead." Mitsuhiko said.

"Kindergarten?" Conan caught the point and asked.

"Yes, this is a group photo of our class next door."

"Seeing this, I thought of one thing." Ayumi suddenly stopped talking, "It's the child in the middle of this photo. He died during that outing."

"Dead?" Conan wondered.

"Yes!" Mitsuhiko added, "It seems that this child was mischievous, ignored the teacher's dissuasion, went to a dangerous place, then stumbled and fell from a high place, and fell to his death."

"It seems that the parents who bought a child made trouble at the school. My mother also said that it was because the parents did not educate well." Ayumi frowned.

"There are exactly eight people in this photo." Yuan Tai interrupted several people with one sentence.

Conan also discovered this, and there is only one child left in this photo who is not missing.Several children searched all over the first grade, but they didn't find the child.

The clue was broken again, and Conan was unwilling.Why, broke again?

Something flashed through his mind, Conan read the ballad again, why are the last two lines so weird?

But the child in the middle died first. Why did he open his eyes at the end of the song?

Conan asked the doctor to check the father of the child. He actually admired the Yin and Yang in China, so it is understandable why the song was sung like this in the end.He actually wants to use the flesh and blood of seven children to resurrect his child?

According to the address searched by the doctor, I found that the person had already moved away.what to do?

"Yin and Yang pay attention to the right time, place and people. Now that he lacks his seventh child, and it's not yet an auspicious day, how could he do it?" Hui Yuan flipped through the book he didn't know where to find it.

"So what is the nearest auspicious day?" Conan rubbed his temples and asked.

"Next Sunday." Haibara looked up at Conan, "I also know where he hid the child."

"Where?" Conan asked.

"Tokyo is in the suburbs, but I don't know exactly where." Haibara turned his attention to the book again.

In the suburbs, is this range a bit too big?Conan frowned. Could it be that the murderer really wanted to hurt the seven children and make him have a dream that would never come true?

Conan thought of a way and called Police Officer Megure.Now it can only be handed over to the police.

-

Conan has never felt that time passes so slowly, and Sunday has finally arrived after Conan's left and right expectations.

After another day, Conan finally received a call from Police Officer Megure. The seven children were safe and they had contacted their parents a few days ago. Conan was relieved.

The author has something to say:

On the new day of breaking the shell, send Wenwen congratulations
