Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 483 The Secret of the Egg

Chinnikov first looked at the underside of the egg.

"There is also a hole underneath..." He muttered, then gently twisted the egg shell and opened the upper part of the egg.

"Huh?" Chinnikov's eyes widened.

This egg of memories is actually empty!

"Why is it empty?" Chinnikov asked with a look of disbelief.

"Isn't it possible?" Hattori Heiji also came over, staring at the empty interior, frowning slightly: "Isn't someone taking away the things inside?"

"Probably not." Yu Gongming shook his head slightly: "If someone could take away the contents of the egg before, then why not just take the egg away as well?"

"The value of the whole egg is obviously much higher than the pure contents, right?"

"Then how do you explain this egg? It can't possibly be empty, right?" Mouri Kogoro asked doubtfully.

"It was originally...empty?" Yu Gongming seemed to have thought of something. After thinking for a moment, his eyes lit up: "By the way! Could it be a Russian matryoshka doll?"

"Russian matryoshka doll?" Many people expressed doubts about this term.

"If I remember correctly..." Officer Shiratori touched his chin and said:

"The so-called Russian matryoshka doll should be a Russian modular toy, in which a smaller doll is nested inside the original doll."

"In other words, this egg actually has a similar design, is it the outer layer of a matryoshka doll?" He Ye also came over.

Hattori Heiji turned his hat and said: "It's very possible. Look..." He pointed at the bottom of the egg: "The bottom seems to be designed to fix something."

"Indeed." Chinnikov nodded in agreement.

When Mouri Kogoro heard this, he immediately showed an annoyed look: "Damn it! If only President Suzuki's egg was here!"

"There is indeed that egg." A smiling voice sounded.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then their eyes focused on Officer Shiratori.

Officer Shiratori smiled slightly and took out something from his backpack: "Because of Pu Si Qinglan's escape, we were worried that she would still target President Suzuki's eggs, so last night we found President Suzuki and asked him to He gave the egg to our police for safekeeping temporarily."

"This time I came to Yokosuka Castle to look for another memory egg. I thought this egg might be useful, so I applied to bring it here."

Mouri Kogoro stared at the memory egg in Officer Shiratori's hand, stepped forward, and said with a suspicious look on his face: "I said, you didn't get it secretly, right?"

Officer Shiratori looked at Kogoro Mouri who was approaching with a bad look on his face, took a step back, waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile: "Mr. Mouri, what are you talking about? How is this possible!"

"Anyway, let's give it a try first." Chinnikov said, taking the Egg of Memory from Officer White Bird's hand and putting it into the groove of another egg.

Click!

The egg of memory was put in perfectly.

"It's just right!" He Ye said in surprise.

"Sure enough, it's not two eggs of memories, but one egg split into two!" Hattori Heiji said with a smile.

"However, I always feel that it is too simple to say this." Yu Gongming suddenly said.

"Too simple? What do you mean?" Mouri Kogoro was puzzled.

"The meaning is that if this is the case, then this puzzle does not seem to be worthy of Mr. Xiyi's title of a magician at the end of the century, or the implication." Mengyu explained.

"That's right. If you look at it this way, this egg looks like a Russian matryoshka doll, but it's actually very ordinary!" Hattori Heiji also thought thoughtfully.

"It's so ordinary. Look, the diamonds on it are so big!" Mouri Kogoro said, pointing to the raised crystals on the surface of the eggshell.

"No, Mr. Mori, that's not a diamond, that's just glass." Natsumi Kasaka shook her head slightly.

"Huh? Glass?" Mouri Kogoro was instantly embarrassed.

"Glass..." Conan and Hattori Heiji were stunned at the same time.

The next moment, Conan immediately ran to Chinnikov, jumped up and snatched the egg.

"Please lend me the egg!" He said and ran in a certain direction.

"Hey! You little brat, what do you want to do!? I've tolerated you for a long time!" As he said this, Kogoro Mouri rushed over to teach Conan a lesson.

However, two hands clasped his arms and shoulders respectively.

"Dad! Don't make trouble!" Xiaolan complained.

"Hey! What do you mean I'm causing trouble? It's obviously this kid..."

"Okay, okay, Mr. Mori, it's okay. Conan, what do you want to do. Do you need my help?"

After Officer Shiratori saw Xiaolan controlling Mouri Kogoro, he followed Conan with a flashlight.

Hattori Heiji looked at the direction Conan was running towards: "That stand..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and curled his lips: "That's it!"

"Hamiya! Put out the candles!" he greeted.

When Yu Gongming, who was relatively close to the candle, heard this, he nodded slightly and put out the candle without asking why.

"Heiji? What's going on?" Kazuye asked doubtfully.

Hattori Heiji smiled slightly: "You'll find out later."

Conan heard the movement behind him and secretly praised Hattori for having thought of it. Then he came to a table that seemed to hold something.

There is an occasional not-so-shallow groove in the middle of the table.

"Officer Shiratori, please put the flashlight into this groove!" Conan shouted.

Officer Shiratori nodded slightly and put the flashlight up as Conan said.

The flashlight light condensed into a beam and shined upward.

"Boy! What are you going to do?" Mouri Kogoro asked.

"Don't worry, you'll see it soon!" Conan said, putting the egg on the flashlight light.

next moment. The flashlight shone along the glass at the bottom of the egg and into the egg.

"Eh? The whole egg seems to have become transparent." Xiaolan looked at the model of Emperor Nicholas' family that gradually emerged, her eyes flashing slightly.

Yu Gongming stared at the egg that was gradually changing, and said softly: "Those glasses function as mirrors, and the inside of the egg has a special design for this."

As soon as he finished speaking, the family model inside the egg slowly rose up.

"This...is this?" Chennikov looked at this scene, his eyebrows twitching.

"The inside of this egg should be designed with a photometer, which will trigger the mechanism when encountering a certain amount of light." Officer Shiratori said calmly.

As he spoke, the model doll rose completely, and the small book on the doll in the middle slowly opened.

Inside the eggshell, countless streams of light intersected, gradually converging towards the book.

The next moment, with the book as the center, the whole egg suddenly shone brightly!

Countless beams of light burst out from the egg from all angles!

"What...what's going on!?" Mouri Kogoro opened his mouth wide, so shocked by this strange sight that he was speechless.

"Look above!" Yu Gongming smiled and pointed at the tops of everyone's heads.

Everyone raised their heads subconsciously.
