Conan: Another Famous Detective

Two o'clock in the afternoon the next day.

Yu Gongming and his party came to the Rice Flower Museum.

At this time, at least hundreds of police officers were stationed throughout the museum, which can be described as being heavily guarded.

"It seems that the Metropolitan Police Department attaches great importance to this matter!" Mouri Kogoro said in surprise as he looked at the police officers coming and going.

"After all, he is a world-class thief, and he still wants to steal the world's largest black pearl. If he succeeds in stealing even though he has issued a warning letter, then the police will be embarrassed, right?" Meng Yu said.

"Mr. Mori, Detective Hanomiya, you are here!" A middle-aged man with a stout figure and a kind smile walked towards a few people.

Seeing Suzuki Sonoko next to the middle-aged man, Akira Hanomiya had some guesses about the middle-aged man's identity.

This should be Suzuki Sonoko's father, Suzuki Shiro.

Sure enough, after the middle-aged man shook hands with Akira Hanomiya and Kogoro Mouri respectively, he smiled and said:

"Thank you Detective Mouri and Detective Hanomiya for agreeing to my little girl's unreasonable request. With your joining, we will be even more powerful!"

"Hey, Mr. Suzuki, you're welcome, he's just a little thief. My famous detective, Mouri Kogoro, can catch him easily!" Mouri Kogoro said confidently.

"That couldn't be better, it's up to you from now on!" Suzuki Shiro smiled.

Immediately, the two burst into laughter amid a commercial exchange of blows.

"It's really shameless to say that you want to catch the Phantom Thief without even solving the code." Conan complained in his heart.

Several people followed Suzuki Shiro to the exhibition stand where the "Dark Stars" exhibition was held.

"Oh! This is the world's largest black pearl!" Mouri Kogoro sighed as he looked at the dazzling black pearls in the booth.

"Yes, since my grandfather collected this pearl, the fortune of our Suzuki family has begun to rise rapidly. In other words, it is the patron saint of our Suzuki family!" Shiro Suzuki said proudly.

"Well, it is indeed a rare treasure... But it should be the day before the time when the strange thief committed the crime, right? Are the security here too tight?" Mouri Kogoro asked.

"Because we didn't know where or how the phantom thieves would sneak into the museum, we had to deploy the police force the day before," Shiro Suzuki explained.

"Asshole! Didn't I tell you to deploy police force near the river?" An angry shout suddenly came from behind the crowd.

Several people turned around and saw a middle-aged man with a majestic face and a mustache reprimanding a group of police officers.

"That is Police Inspector Chagi Jintaro from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Investigation Section 2, and he is also the person in charge of this arrest."

As Suzuki Shiro spoke, he came behind Ochagi Jintaro and asked:

"Just now you said you were going to deploy police forces by the river. Have you figured out the code yet?"

"Well, with the invitation of the wave, it should mean that Kaitou Kidd will sneak into the museum from the river that flows next to the museum, so we will focus on deploying police forces in that river..." Chamu said warningly.

"Hahahaha!" A burst of laughter interrupted Chamu's vigilant narration.

Chamu frowned and looked in the direction of the laughter, and then said in surprise: "You... aren't you the Maori who used to stay in the first class?"

"Officer, you are really bad!" Mouri Kogoro said with a proud smile, very unceremoniously.

"What do you mean?" Chamu asked with a vigilant frown.

"Don't you understand? Waves refer to the sea, and when you mention the sea, you think of the wilderness, and the English name for stars is star. The translation of star means star. And tomorrow night, the big star will rush into the wild. Miss Yoko will hold a concert at the Guild Hall."

"Also, Ms. Yoko's last song has been confirmed to be Moon Girl, which also hints at the sentence that the moon separates the two."

"So, Kaitou Kidd will definitely appear near the guild hall at nine o'clock tomorrow night when Ms. Okino Yoko sings the last song to complete this crime!"

"Hey! This is all nonsense..." Conan said in his heart, speechless.

"I know it's nonsense, but it sounds reasonable to me..." Akira Yumiya complained secretly.

"That seems to make sense..." Chamu Jingjing was immediately deceived.

"Uh..." Conan didn't expect that Chagi Police would believe Kogoro Mori's lies, and he was even more speechless.

"Uncle Maori, let's not talk about the other things about your code interpretation, but there is one thing that doesn't make sense at all." Yu Gongming hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

He felt uncomfortable if he didn't speak out.

"Oh? What do you think is wrong with my impeccable reasoning?" Mouri Kogoro looked at Hanemiya Akira with an unkind look.

"Time." Yu Gongming said calmly.

"What?" Mouri Kogoro was confused.

"As far as I know, the notice letter was sent to the Suzuki family three days ago, and the information about Yoko Okino's last song was only confirmed last night."

"Yes, and it is said that this song [Moon Girl] was temporarily changed by Miss Okino Yoko. It turns out it is not this song." Mengyu also added.

"So, if Uncle Mouri's reasoning is true, then Miss Okino Yoko must be an accomplice of Kaitou Kidd."

"This... this..." Mouri Kogoro was instantly embarrassed.

He would never admit that Okino Yoko was an accomplice of Kaitou Kidd, but in this case, his reasoning would be completely untenable.

Could Kaitou Kidd have predicted that Okino Yoko would change the last song two days in advance?

"Well, that makes sense. Kaitou Kid has always been a loner. There is no sign that he has any accomplices. Moreover, it makes no sense at all to use some method to get Okino Yoko to change the song just to fulfill the secret code."

"Because if he appears near the auditorium, he will eventually come to the museum, just to complete this secret code, and let Okino Yoko enter our suspect list, and it will not help in stealing [Dark Star]. This is really not like that Guy’s style.”

After Chamu Jingjing's analysis by Yu Gongming, he gradually came back to his senses.

"And using waves to extend to the ocean, and extending from the ocean to the wilderness seems logically coherent, but the original text of the code is a wave. Using waves to directly imply the ocean and the wilderness, and then associate it with Okino Yoko, is really far-fetched." Akira Hanamiya Said again.

"It seems that this interpretation is indeed wrong..." Chaki nodded warily, and then looked at Hanemiya Akira with some hindsight.

"Wait, I haven't asked for advice yet..." Perhaps Yu Gongming's analysis just now was recognized by Chamu, and his words were obviously full of respect.

"I am Yu Gongming, a detective." Yu Gongming said with a smile.

"It turns out to be the famous detective Hanomiya. I'm sorry. So, does Detective Hanomiya have any clues about the code?" Chaki asked alertly.

"Sorry, not yet." Yu Gongming shook his head.

Although he didn't quite remember the solution to the code, Akira Hatemiya knew that Kaitou Kid would be on the roof of the Acupido Hotel near the museum.

But he didn't want to tell the police about it just yet.

He was looking forward to meeting the phantom thief. If the police went to the right place in advance, it would be difficult for him to act.
