Stay away from Conan

"Then...could this be what...the so-called 'Tōkubo Eiryu's dagger' that Kaitou Kidd targeted was left here? After all, it can be placed in these collections, so it can be seen that the two daggers are also with it. Hijikata Toshizo has something to do with it..."

Listening to Hattori Heiji's analysis, Conan couldn't help but subconsciously combine this matter with the situation of Kaitou Kidd and think about it.

But in response, Hattori Heiji shook his head and denied:

"Probably not. The two swords owned by Tokubo Eiryu are short swords and wakizashi, and the knife that left marks on the screen, judging from the thickness and width of the blade, should not be left by short swords, but normal "The long knife."

In this way, Conan lost interest after hearing what Hattori Heiji said. Although the marks of the five-pointed star-shaped sword are a bit rare, since it has nothing to do with Kaitou Kidd's goal, Conan no longer pays too much attention to it. After all, In the age of Hijikata Toshisan, it was not unexpected to encounter such incidents of killing and bleeding with samurai swords. Therefore, since he had no idea of ​​delving into history, he did not need to pay attention to other things. It was better to find the two swords first.

In this way, Conan and Hattori Heiji continued to search in this warehouse seriously.

And just after they started searching, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai also arrived belatedly. After receiving the news from Yuanzi, they rushed here. After passing the police investigation outside the villa, they also met Nakamori Ginzo who met here. After saying hello, he entered the warehouse and saw Sonoko, Xiaolan, and Heye chatting here, as well as Conan and Hattori Heiji who were rummaging through the warehouse——

"Ah! Mr. Akechi, you are finally here!"

Seeing Gao Yuan, Yuanzi and others greeted him politely.

Immediately, Gao Yuan greeted him in return, and then asked about the current situation of the garden:

"How's it going? I heard that Kaitou Kidd is also eyeing the Axe Consortium's collection purchased by your Suzuki Consortium this time. Now... looking at the security outside, it seems to be complete enough."

"Hehe, it doesn't matter! Even if Kidd-sama successfully steals it... it would be better to let Kidd-sama take it away! Anyway, it's just two daggers, and it's not an important thing. In short, it's better to let Kidd-sama steal it successfully! It would be great to see Lord Kidd here!”

In this way, Sonoko really didn't attach much importance to the treasure being stolen by Kaitou Kidd. On the contrary, being able to see Kidd was more important to her.

In this way, Gao Yuan was not so surprised when he saw Yuanzi's reaction. After all, Yuanzi was such a person. But other than that, Gao Yuan probably read a hint of something else from Yuanzi's reaction——

"It's not something important." Does that mean Sonoko doesn't know the hidden meaning behind these two daggers?

So, tentatively, Gao Yuan smiled naturally and bitterly, and then asked:

"Ah...yeah...but why did Kidd focus on these two daggers this time? Tokubo Eiryu, I tried to investigate before coming here. Isn't he a famous swordsmith? He is specifically targeting them. Take these two short knives...

"Well, there shouldn't be any deep meaning, right?"

In this way, as if thinking, Gao Yuan said this, waiting for Yuanzi to pick him up to see if she knew that the name "Dongwa Ronglong" might be related to finding the treasure hidden by the first head of the Fujiang Consortium.

As a result, after listening to what Gao Yuan said, Yuanzi still said indifferently:

"That's even better! If Lord Kidd really needs these two daggers for another purpose, then let him take them away! In this way, I can be considered a favor to Lord Kidd!"

In this way, as soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but Gao Yuan. Even Xiaolan, Heye and Xiaoai were speechless at Yuanzi's attitude.

But from this, Gao Yuan also understood from Sonoko's words. It seemed that Sonoko didn't know about the treasure of the Axe Consortium. So, according to Kuroba Kaito, a note with the name "Tōkubo Eiryu" appeared. The timing of this clue seemed to coincide with the time when the Suzuki Consortium and the Siling Consortium were preparing to auction off the collections of the Fujiang Consortium. After that, the Siling Consortium voluntarily gave up the auction, allowing the Suzuki Consortium to successfully purchase these collections. Taste.

So from this point of view, there is a high probability that the Suzuki Foundation does not know about this, that is, it does not know what it means to buy these collections and accept the two short swords forged by "Tōkubo Eiryu", then...

What about the Mitsubishi Consortium? Do they know about this? Is their abandonment of this auction related to this clue that will appear?

So, we don’t know for the time being, so let’s look at the situation now.

Ever since Kuroba Kaito made the phone call that day, he and Kuroba Kaito had tacitly cut off contact. Therefore, he only knew that Kuroba Kaito was going to take action against the two daggers collected by the Axie Foundation, but It's unclear when and how he plans to take action.

Therefore, facing the current situation, Gao Yuan also knows nothing about the whereabouts of Kuroba Kaito, so he needs to look at this matter from the perspective of a normal detective——

"Then... is it possible that the two daggers that Kaito Kidd promised to steal this time were actually sent by someone who imitated Kaitou Kidd?"

At this point, after briefly thinking about it, Gao Yuan felt that this possibility was possible——

"After all, Kaitou Kidd has never expressed curiosity about things like katana swords before, and the sword of 'Higashikubo Eiryu' is not a famous collection. It feels a bit unlike Kaitou Kidd's usual style."

In this way, Gao Yuan analyzed the matter from a normal outsider's perspective and made such a guess.

But in addition, Gao Yuan, who knew some secrets, actually felt that this matter was not impossible. After all, the Fujiang Consortium was currently short of funds due to poor management. In order to raise funds, the current head of the Fujiang Consortium, Fujiang Takuzo, chose to sell his grandfather's collection. .

However, just because of the lack of funds, didn't Takuzo Takuzo covet those treasures?

In fact, it was something that his own grandfather had hidden. Is it normal for him to want to find it out and alleviate the current crisis of the Ax River Consortium?

So, in this way, he wants to find out one of the key clues that may be the treasure——

It is a reasonable choice to keep two of the six short swords forged by "Tōkubo Eiryu" in your hands!

However, when the clue of "Tōwa Eiryu" appeared, the Fujiang Consortium had already begun to pack up and sell all the collections, and the buyer was still a giant like the Suzuki Foundation. The already somewhat declining Fujiang Consortium was bound to disappear. There is no way to suspend the transaction at this time, then...

Isn’t it impossible that the Ax River Consortium would be careful to guard themselves against theft?

Anyway, there are a total of six daggers forged by Tokubo Eiryu, and no one has ever seen them. The Fue Consortium can definitely give the fakes to the Suzuki Consortium. Even if the incident happens later, they can also blame the incident on Kaitou Kidd. Isn't it?
