Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1299 1299 [Outlaw maniac joins group chat]

Conan was startled, the connection failed: "Dragon Tiger Stone? What is that?"

Yuan Shan and Ye heard this with sharp ears, and came over happily: "Look, I said it is still necessary to visit the scenic spots! - It is over the Sakura Gate. It is said that there are two stone walls guarding the castle tower. Most of the time they look ordinary, but when it rains, a pattern of a tiger and a dragon will appear on them."

Hearing these words, the two detectives suddenly thought of a possibility.

The next moment, Hattori Heiji grabbed the scroll in the hands of Otaki Police Department and stood in the heavy rain.

Otaki Police Department was stunned: "This is an important piece of evidence, it can't be exposed to the rain!"

He hurriedly wanted to chase him, but accidentally bumped into Jiang Xia who happened to be passing by, and bounced back as soon as he got up. Jiang Xia glanced at him in surprise: "Are you okay?"

Then the Osaka police were pulled up in a friendly manner.

"..." The Otaki Police Department always felt that he was blocking the road on purpose, but there seemed to be no evidence.

Taking a closer look, Jiang Xia looked normal and could not see much intentionality.

Otaki Police Department: "..." Did I think too much?

...It is true that this place is a bit narrow and crowded. Jiang Xia heard the movement and wanted to come over to look at the scroll, but he was bumped into it. Sounds very reasonable.

...No, now is not the time to think about this!

He woke up with a start, remembering the unfortunate physical evidence.

When I rushed there and took a look, the Otaki Police Department was startled:

After being soaked by the rain, some new content actually appeared on the originally blank scroll.

The edges of the scroll were burned unevenly, and on the tattered paper, the shape of a gourd could be vaguely seen on the left side, with vertical and horizontal dimensions marked on both sides.

On the right side of the scroll, there are a few lines of scrawled text.

"Gourds, pottery pieces with numbers within a thousand printed on them, and gold powder..." Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they asked excitedly: Could it be that legendary treasure, a thousand ladles? !

——Who doesn’t love treasure hunting? Not to mention the issue of money, just the process of solving countless puzzles and finding this legendary treasure is enough to make them yearn for it.

A few meters away.

The four people in the tour group stood in the shadows, looking at them with different expressions.

Among them, "Akechi Mitsuhide" looked salivating, while "Lord" Oda Nobunaga turned his back, took out a piece of ceramic shard from his pocket, looked at it, and then carefully put it back and hid it.

The old man "Tokugawa Ieyasu" walked away a few steps, took out his mobile phone, turned his back and made a call: "It's me, don't act rashly, the police haven't left yet - what we are looking for is right in front of you, call me." Cheer up!"

"Ning Ning" fits her identity very well. She stares at all this and smiles without saying a word.

Jiang Xia stared at the scroll for a while and couldn't help but look up at them.

Unsurprisingly, I saw several balls of murderous intent.

Jiang Xia: "..." Although the number of murders caused by Conan alone was large, the proportion of murderous intent among the participants did not seem to be as high as it is now.

Hattori Heiji is really useful.

With this in mind, he looked at the enthusiastic and cheerful Osaka classmate kindly.

Hattori Heiji was thinking about the treasure when he suddenly noticed a look with a strong presence. He was startled and looked back warily. Leng Buding and Jiang Xia met their eyes.

"..." After looking at each other in silence for a moment, Hattori Heiji took a deep breath and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Jiang Xia came back to his senses and said politely, "I just want to admire your heroic appearance in solving the case."

"???" Hattori Heiji thought of the past, a flash of escape flashed in his eyes, he grabbed Conan and pushed it forward, "Your Tokyo classmate is here, treat him as your opponent, don't take advantage of the Osaka people!"

Conan: "..." Cunning Osaka people!

"Tokyo-san?" Mao Lilan looked at Conan and then at Hattori Heiji.

After a moment, she was silent for a moment under Conan's horrified gaze: Jiang Xia and Conan both went to school in Tokyo. If the age gap was ignored, they could barely be regarded as "classmates."

Mao Lilan: "..." In order to avoid being spoiled by Jiang Xia, Hattori even spared the children. How could this be? Children also have a winning mentality! She had seen Conan secretly put earplugs in his pocket...

As she thought about it, her gaze towards Hattori Heiji became full of condemnation.

Hattori Heiji resisted her gaze and said: "..." This guy Kudo actually turned into a child to evade responsibility...

In the chaos, only the Otaki Police Department, who didn't want to work overtime, was still thinking seriously about the matter at hand.

He stared at the scroll for a long time, but couldn't see anything: "Is this really related to the treasure?"

Jiang Xia took a closer look at the material of the scroll and thought: "It should be that after the writer left a specific content, he covered the piece of paper with other thin papers. In this way, once the paper on it gets wet, , the hidden writing will emerge - this method was deliberately used to cover up the content, and it does seem to be somewhat related to the word 'treasure'."

The Otaki Police Department couldn't help but look at him with relief. The detective who had a good reputation among the Tokyo police was indeed different from ordinary high school detectives. He actually remembered business like a policeman.

He looked at the scroll again: "But the important sentences were burned to pieces, and you can't see what was written."

Conan heard them discussing the case and came over.

As the only "person" present who had seen other fragments, he guessed: "These pottery fragments found from the corpse are probably fragments of pottery gourds. Coupled with the dimensions marked on the scroll and the gold powder inside, No matter how you think about it, it looks very much like Toyotomi Hideyoshi's horse seal - Qian Cheng Lao Dao."

"Qian Cheng Lao Chan?!" Of course the Otaki Police Department had also heard of it, and looked at the scroll again in shock.

Although the size of the gourd marked on the scroll is not large, if Toyotomi Hideyoshi is like the legend, he added a golden gourd every time he achieved a victory, and finally added a thousand gourds conscientiously... Then the value of this treasure , simply inestimable.

"This, this..." Otaki Police Department suddenly felt that the scroll became hot to the touch, "This is impossible."

Next to them, the four people in the tour group had obviously known about Qian Cheng Lao Cao for a long time.

They could not restrain their excitement and actually got into the chat between the detectives and the police: "How is it impossible? - It is said that Toyotomi Hideyoshi had a huge treasure. After his death, even Tokugawa Ieyasu was shocked by his wealth. And there were rumors that Toyotomi Hideyoshi poured a large amount of gold into the Kinmei well in front of the castle tower in order to purify the water."

"In this case." Jiang Xia suddenly remembered something and looked at them thoughtfully, "The motive for killing someone for such a treasure is very sufficient."

"..." Several suspects who came to the door were stunned.
