Conan: Another Famous Detective

Emperor Moritani smiled a little more when he saw Xiaolan and Akira Hanamiya both praising the dim sum.

"As long as you like it. In this way, all the hard work I put in last night will be rewarded."

"Wow! Professor, can you still cook?" a female guest asked in surprise.

"Of course, I'm still single now. The snacks here, whether they are biscuits or sandwiches, are all made by me. This is my personality. If I didn't make them myself, I wouldn't be at ease." Moritani Teiji smiled.

"I see. Is it because of this spirit that Professor Moritani can design such a beautiful building?" A male guest came up to talk.

"Of course, if it doesn't meet the conditions of beauty, I won't recognize it as a building!" Moritani Teiji's originally elegant and warm expression suddenly turned serious:

"There are many young architects nowadays who simply lack the understanding of beauty. They should have a stronger sense of responsibility for their works!"

"For example, blow up a work that you are not satisfied with?" Akira Hanomiya complained silently.

After Moritani Teiji said this, he seemed to realize that it might be inappropriate to say this at such an afternoon tea party, so he quickly changed the subject:

"By the way, Mr. Mori, and Mr. Hanomiya, I have a question to ask you two famous detectives, is it okay?"

"Uh...what's the problem?" Mouri Kogoro was confused.

Akira Hanamiya, who was tasting a piece of snack, also cast a questioning look.

"Oh! That's it. I'm currently helping an Internet company run by three people to deduce the Internet network communication password. As well-known detectives, Mr. Mori and Mr. Hanomiya should be able to solve it right away, right?" When Er said this, he showed an unexplainable smile.

"Wait... Could it be that he is the famous detective Mouri Kogoro?" a guest exclaimed.

"So that person is the young detective Akira Hanomiya who is as famous as him? I didn't expect that there would be two famous detectives at this afternoon tea party!" Another guest said.

At this time, most of the guests' eyes were focused on Mouri Kogoro and Hanomiya Akira.

"This guy... definitely did it on purpose..." Yu Gongming cursed in his heart.

When Mouri Kogoro saw that almost everyone was looking over here, he immediately straightened his suit with some restraint, controlled his expression, and said calmly:

"No problem, please tell me, Professor Moritani."

Seeing that Mouri Kogoro had already agreed, Hanomiya Akira would lose his standing if he refused, so he had no choice but to nod and agree.

There was a burst of cheers all around.

"You people..." Yu Gongming was speechless.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Emperor Moritani smiled and took out a stack of notes from his arms:

"This is the information of those three people. The pass code is a noun composed of the information of the three of them. There are five hiragana in total..."

As Moritani Teiji said, he handed the note paper to Mouri Kogoro and Hanomiya Akira, and came to Xiaolan and Mengyu at the same time: "Miss Xiaolan, Miss Mengyu, you should also try it."

Then, he distributed the sticky notes to everyone: "Let's try it together. The time limit is three minutes."

Moritani Teiji placed a small hourglass on the edge of the long table:

"Then, the timer starts!"

As a result, the backyard fell into a brief silence.

Moritani Teiji came to the side of the backyard, held a pipe in his mouth, struck a match, lit the filled tobacco, and started smoking leisurely.

Yu Gongming frowned and looked at the note in front of him:

"Here, who in the theatrical version remembers the secret code that just opened... The nature of this secret code is the same as the riddle at the beginning of the Doctor in the later theatrical version. There is no value in remembering it. Could it be that we can only rely on that guy Kudo to reason? ?”

"No, if you don't remember the plot and panic, how can you become a qualified detective?"

Yu Gongming forced himself to calm down, thoughts flying in his mind:

"First of all, this is obviously a deduction game, and as the code is shortly after the opening of the theatrical version, it must not be too complicated."

"Since it is an uncomplicated code, there must be an obvious pattern in the code..."

Yu Gongming looked at the note again:

"The name... I don't see the connection, the hobbies... there are so many contents, and there are too many possibilities. It shouldn't be... the date of birth... eh? Yes! Their birth dates are Showa 31 and 32, 33 years!”

"Adjacent years, this should be a clue...the answer to the password is a noun, converted into a noun using the year number, the first thing that comes to mind is the zodiac..."

When Yu Gongming thought of this, he began to calculate silently.

"Yes! Showa 31, 32, and 33 correspond to the year of the monkey, the year of the rooster, and the year of the dog respectively." Extract the keywords, that is, monkey, rooster, and dog! "

"The difficulty of this code is not too high. After deciphering it to this extent, the next step should be relatively obvious. Let me see, the five hiragana nouns related to monkey, chicken, and dog are..."

"I see, it's Momotaro. The monkey, chicken, and dog happen to be Momotaro's three followers, and Momotaro's hiragana is ももたろう, and there are exactly five of them!"

"I understand, the answer is..." Yu Gongming smiled.

"The answer is..." Conan's voice sounded almost at the same time as Yumiya Akira:

"Momotaro!" The two said the answer in unison.

Hearing the two voices, all the guests focused their attention.

Moritani Teiji, who was smoking on the side of the backyard, also changed his expression and walked back into the crowd.

"Sure enough, as expected of Conan, I still used the perspective of some time travellers, and saw the content of the note earlier than Conan. As a result, the gap between the answers we gave together is still huge..." Hanemiya Akira sighed in his heart.

Conan glanced at Yu Gongming, with a slight smile on his lips:

"Sure enough, a puzzle of this level is not difficult for Hanomiya..." He turned to look at Mouri Kogoro again.

Mouri Kogoro seemed to be startled by the two voices, his body suddenly trembled, and then he looked at Hanomiya Akira and Conan subconsciously:

"Kid Hanomiya, Conan, did you just say Momotaro?"

"Oh, uncle is still an uncle..." Conan was speechless in his heart, but he explained in his childish voice.

"Yes, those three people were born in adjacent years, and their corresponding zodiac signs are Shen, You, and Xu, which are monkey, rooster, and dog..."

"Monkeys, chickens, and dogs are Momotaro's three followers in folklore. Combined with the hints of the five hiragana, the answer is self-evident." Akira Hanamiya said with a smile.

Moritani Teiji was silent for a while, and then said loudly: "The answers of this little brother and Detective Hanomiya... are correct!"

Bang bang bang...

The guests present immediately applauded.

Moritani Teiji glanced at the hourglass on the edge of the long table and said with a smile:

"As expected of a detective, he solved the code in only half the time. This little brother is also very good!"

When Mouri Kogoro heard this, his face suddenly fell.

As both famous detectives, Akira Hanamong has figured out the answer, but he hasn't. Doesn't this make him inferior to Akira Hanamiya?

Moritani Niji came to Hanomiya Akira and Conan:

"You two have cracked the code. As a reward, let me invite you to visit my exhibition room."

"Can I go with Sister Xiaolan?" Conan asked.

"Mengyu, please come too, Professor Moritani, okay?" Hanomiya Akiya said.

As for Mouri Kogoro? Sorry, both Hanemiya Akira and Conan thought it was superfluous for him to go.

"Haha, of course it's no problem." Moritani Teji nodded in agreement.
