Conan's other me

Chapter 179 Wrong lyrics sung

"It's Kyoto!"

“Kyoto can indeed be called the hometown of the Japanese!”

Walking out of the station, the excited primary school students looked around.

"Thanks to the Doctor, we are here..."

"Ahem," Dr. Ali put his fist against his mouth and cleared his throat, "In that case, let me give you another riddle."

"Eh? Are you coming again?"

"Doctor, you already had one the day before yesterday!"

"Genta, Mitsuhiko," Ayumi whispered, "just listen to the doctor again? He must have thought about it for a long time..."

Haibara Ai stood next to the doctor, listening to the whispers of the primary school students, then yawned, and listened to the doctor's riddles with the real primary school students.

"Listen up," the doctor said, "You all know that Sora and Conan like to play ball very much, right?"

"It's football! We like it too!"

"Actually," the doctor pretended to be mysterious, "the two of them also like to sing-"

"Huh? Really?"

"I've never heard them sing before!"

Like Ayumi and others, Haihara Ai was also a little surprised.She has never heard Kaedehara or Conan sing, and since she and Kaedehara live under the same roof, she has not discovered Kaedehara's hobby of singing...

Speaking of which, during the Belmode incident last time, Maplehara mentioned to her that he and Conan both had absolute pitch...

"It's just a hypothesis for the riddle!" the doctor explained, "That's it anyway! So the question is, which place is their favorite? One, Osaka; two, Tokyo; or three, Kyoto?"

"Ah! I know, it's Tokyo, right?" Ayumi immediately raised her hands happily, "Because we are all here! Ayumi also likes places with friends the most!"

"Yes!"

"But this is a cold joke from the doctor, Ayumi..." Mitsuhiko hesitated.

"Uh..." The doctor was stunned for a moment.Although the answer was different from what he thought, he was a little embarrassed to deny Ayumi's words.

Haiyuan Ai, who noticed this, glanced at the somewhat embarrassed Doctor with interest, "Ah, Doctor, it seems that he has lost his temper."

"Ahem, that's the wrong answer!" The doctor was determined, and then cast a pleading look at Haiyuan Ai, "Um, Xiao Ai..."

"Eh? Isn't that right?" Ayumi was a little disappointed.

"Don't take it to heart," Haiyuan Ai glared at the doctor, but still chose to help him out, "It's just a boring puzzle. The answer is Kyoto."

"But why?"

"I don't understand it at all!"

"Because there is a song in Kyoto adapted from the name of a street. Children in Kyoto can sing it. It's called the ball song."

Haibara Ai explained that she found out about it yesterday when she helped Feng Yuan look up information. The doctor probably also found out about this when he checked out Kyoto travel guide with her. "The doctor also deliberately said that they like to play ball, not that they like to play football. football…"

"Because it's not the same thing at all..." Mitsuhiko couldn't help shrinking, "It's really cold..."

Although they were almost used to it, Genta and Ayumi still looked at the doctor with speechless expressions.

"Okay, don't stand here," Hui Yuan Ai urged, "you will block others..."

"Oh…"

"Haibara is looking forward to it today~" Ayumi started moving together, "You must want to see Fengyuan, right?"

Haibara Ai glanced at Ayumi with a little surprise, Ayumi looked quite happy.

She had actually noticed that Ayumi had a slight affection for Feng Yuan, but an elementary school student was an elementary school student after all...

"Yes." Hui Yuan Ai responded calmly.

"…Eh?"

The primary school students looked at Haibara Ai with some surprise, even Dr. Ali.

"Who told him and Edogawa to abandon us and come to Kyoto?" Haibara Ai continued, "What? Don't you want to see their surprised expressions when we suddenly appeared in front of them?"

"right!"

"They will be surprised!"

The primary school students suddenly understood, re-understood the meaning of Haiyuan's sad words, and began to look forward to it.

Then, they heard a familiar voice faintly behind them.

"I think Conan will only be a little surprised at best, not a big surprise."

The group of people subconsciously turned around and saw a familiar figure standing behind them with hands in pockets.

"Kaede, Kaedehara..."

"It's indeed quite interesting," Feng Yuan winked, "seeing your surprised expressions..."

"Xiao Kong! How do you know we are here now?"

"Because Doctor, when you come to Kyoto, you will definitely bring everyone with you," Fengyuan explained, and then looked at Ayumi and the others, "And with your temperament, you will definitely rush early..."

"Eh? What a foul..."

"We thought we could surprise you both..."

"However, Conan should still be out investigating the case right now," Fengyuan said. "Shall I take you to Sanno Temple first? Uncle Mouri and I live there."

Because there were so many people and it was inconvenient to take a taxi, the elementary school students also wanted to experience Kyoto’s public transportation, so the group took the tram to Sannoji Temple.

On the way, Haiyuan Ai whispered to Fengyuan: "I'm not as easy to deal with as they are - you just didn't explain why you knew we were coming today...because I almost let it slip on the phone?"

"It's also because your reply to yesterday's message was too simple."

He deliberately didn't mention it to avoid putting all the "cause" on Haihara Ai, even though the elementary school students didn't actually care about it.

Yesterday, Haihara Ai completed the comparison and found nothing related to the pattern in the painting, so he used his mobile phone to reply to the message, but there was no result after just a brief chat.

"This is not like you. You usually express your thoughts..." Fengyuan glanced at the schoolbag Haiyuan Ai was carrying, "So I thought, maybe you want to say...thank you after we meet today."

"You still have cases to handle, right? Don't you use your reasoning ability where it should be used?"

"This is the place it should be used for," Maplehara held up the unopened cup of drink in his hand, which he bought together when Genta wanted to drink water. "And, thanks to you, I already have some ideas... "

……

On the other side, Mizuo Harutaro's house.

Hattori Heiji and Conan came here to investigate the situation.

Various Noh masks were hung everywhere in Mizuo's house. To their slight surprise, Ryuen En and Saijo Taiga were also here.

"Were you attacked after that?" Long Yuan asked in surprise after a moment.

"That's why I took the liberty of coming here," Hattori Heiji looked at Mizuo Harutaro, "to ask for Mr. Mizuo's alibi, because the murderer wore the Noh mask of an old man."

"The old man's mask?"

"Yes. I would like to ask Mr. Saijo and Mr. Ryuumao about their alibi. Is that convenient?"

"Do we want to?"

"It's very nerve-wracking," said Taiga Saijo. "We originally wanted to discuss the murderer of Mr. Sakura with the four of us, Ms. Chiga Rei, so we came here..."

"Oh…"

"…OK then."

Mizuo was the first to talk about his whereabouts last night, "After leaving the teahouse last night, I went straight back to sleep. However, I am still single, and my mother and my room are still far away, so I can't prove whether I have been at home all the time... "

"My situation is the same as his," Saijo Taiga spoke up for the second time, "because I live alone on the second floor of a shop on Teramachi Road."

"After reading scriptures in the hall for a while, I went back to my room to sleep, so I have no witnesses." Long Yuan said.

"That's it," Hattori thought for a while, "Then let me ask again, are the three practicing bow and arrow?"

"Did you mean bows and arrows?" Saijo Taiga replied, "No."

“I once drew the Azusa bow on the stage of a Noh opera called Maple Leaf Appreciation.”

"I have also imitated drawing a bow to exorcise demons, but I have never really practiced bow and arrow skills..."

"Then do you know if anyone in the tea house knew how to draw a bow?" Conan asked aloud.

"That being said, Yamakura seems..."

"Eh? Are you saying that Ms. Yamakura practiced bow and arrow?" Hattori looked at Saijo Taiga. Ms. Yamakura was the proprietress of the teahouse, "But she wasn't there at the time, was she?"

"No ..."

"Excuse me." At this moment, the door was opened and a young woman wearing a yellow kimono walked in.

"Ah, she's here..."

The visitor is Miss Qian Heling.

However, she changed her outfit and looked completely different from the dancer. Neither Conan nor Hattori Heiji recognized her at first.

Hattori Heiji even leaned forward to look at Chiga Rei, slightly lost in thought.

Next, a few of them discussed the murder of Ying Zhengzao last night, but they didn't gain anything. The group of people quickly said goodbye and dispersed.

There is currently no other place to collect clues. Hattori Heiji and Conan are preparing to return to Sanno Temple, and Chiga Rei joins them for a while.

"Actually, Sannoji Temple is on Rokkaku Road," Qian Heling said, "We are passing by Yichuan Road now..."

After a pause, she sang a short song to recall the route, "Maruzhu Yiji, Oshi Ochichi, sister Rokkaku... so it should be on the sixth road..."

"Ok?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly taken aback.

When he met his first love eight years ago, that person was standing under the cherry tree, singing this song while patting the ball.

"Sister, what song was that just now?" Conan asked.

"Well, we here call it the ball song, which is the song that changes the names of the roads in Kyoto from north to south..."

……

"Maruzhu Yiji, Oshiomichi, sister Rokkaku, Nishiki, Shidabuto Takamatsuman, five snow boots, jingling fish racks, walking through Rokujo Street and Seven Streets, and after passing Eight Streets is Toji Road, passing through Jiutiao Street is just around the corner…”

"Haiyuan, you sing so well!" Ayumi praised, and others agreed.

"Thank you." After singing, Hui Yuan Ai stood back to the side.

Because of the doctor's cold joke, they curiously learned about the ball song, and then walked on the road and took turns singing.

"Then it's Genta's turn next..." "Huh?" Genta took a sip of the juice, wiped his mouth, and then sang without a tune, "Maruzhu Yiji, Oshi Ochichi, the bride Rokkaku... "

"It's my sister Rokkaku, Genta..."

Feng Yuan laughed softly.

But although no one else noticed it, Haihara Ai noticed it immediately, "Ah, you seem to be very happy..."

"I just happened to think of something funny..."

Fengyuan just explained something, and Yuantai over there has already finished singing and looked at him, "Then it's Fengyuan's turn!"

Also because of the doctor's cold joke, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Haibara Ai all looked at Maplehara with curiosity and expectation.

Feng Yuan hesitated for a moment, "How about I forget it?"

"No!"

"We agreed that everyone will sing!"

"…OK then."

There was no other way, so Fengyuan had no choice but to sing.

……

On the way back to Sannoji Temple, Hattori Heiji received a call from Officer Otaki.

From the phone call, he learned that the handle of the knife left by the man who attacked him last night had a small amount of blood with the same blood type as Mr. Sakura Masazo, and the shape of the knife was also the same as Mr. Sakura Masazo's. The wounds fit.

"In this way, we can confirm that the person who attacked me is the murderer of Mr. Sakura."

"If that's the case," Conan responded, "then the four people who couldn't get rid of the murder weapon should not be the murderers."

While they were talking, they came to the back door of Sanno Temple, where a cherry blossom tree stood. It was the place where Hattori Heiji met his first love eight years ago.

Hattori Heiji was slightly lost in thought, lost in memories, and then was interrupted by a voice next to him.

"Ah, it's Conan! What are you doing?"

"Why are you here?" Conan looked in surprise.

Just like Feng Yuan said, it's not that surprising... Ayumi thought to herself, and then replied: "We answered Dr. Agasa's question correctly, so he brought us here."

"Both you and Fengyuan are too cunning..."

"That's right…"

Genta and Mitsuhiko complained feebly, and Conan noticed the doctor, Maplehara and Haibara Ai walking behind.

"This guy Fengyuan turned out to be with you. I thought he was secretly investigating the case... But then again, why do you all look so listless..."

It is still morning, the elementary school students must have just arrived in Kyoto, and they should be full of energy at this time.

However, except for Ayumi who seemed to have cheered up after meeting him, everyone else looked a little melancholy. Even Haiyuan Ai, who was standing with Feng Yuan, looked a little ugly...

this is not normal...

"Because Feng Yuan's singing is so ugly!" Mitsuhiko said unceremoniously, and Haihara Ai nodded in agreement, "I never thought that someone could sing so ugly..."

"I didn't expect that there was something you were so bad at..." Haiyuan Ai glanced at Fengyuan.

"I told you I won't sing..." Fengyuan defended.

"Hey, hey," Conan, who understood the reason, helped to defend, "I think I can still sing..."

"What are you talking about, Conan, we are talking about Maplehara!"

"I'm not talking about you!"

"Yes, yes..."

"Oh, so you guys are walking and singing at the same time?" Hattori Heiji interjected, "It's quite interesting."

"It's a football song!" Ayumi looked at her dark-skinned brother, "The doctor said that all the children in Kyoto can sing it..."

"Ball ball song?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly startled.

It's not that he forgot the name, it's just that Qian Heling just sang it in front of him and happened to be two years older than him. He now thinks that Qian Heling is the first love he met eight years ago.

"Yes, we just learned it today!" After saying that, Ayumi sang a verse, "Maruzhu Yiji..."

"It's really amazing. I can sing so well just after I learned it..."

"Haihara and Mitsuhiko also sing very well! Genta always has trouble remembering the lyrics..."

As for Feng Yuan, it’s okay not to mention it.

"Because it's too hard to remember!" Yuan Tai argued.

"Yuta always sings sister Rokkaku as bride Rokkaku..."

"Pfft-"

Under everyone's surprised gazes, Conan suddenly laughed out loud, and even continued to hold his stomach and laugh non-stop.

"Conan, you are so exaggerated! I just remembered the wrong words——"

"Sorry, sorry, I wasn't laughing at you, Yuanta, I just happened to think of something funny..."

Haiyuan Ai glanced at Fengyuan.

Conan and Maplehara both laughed at this moment, and even the reasons they explained were exactly the same...

Is there something I don't know about?
And because it was still difficult to explain, although Fengyuan noticed Haiyuan Ai's gaze, he had no intention of actively explaining it for the time being.

On the other side, Hattori Heiji, who stared at Conan suspiciously for a while, remembered something, his face darkened immediately, and he directly pulled Conan to the side, and brought Fengbara with him.

"Hey, Kudo," Hattori Heiji asked, "Are you thinking about something very rude?"

"How is that possible!" Conan denied it decisively, but still held back his laughter and explained to Fengyuan, "This guy Hattori said that his first love also made the mistake of singing in the same way..."

"Oh...so, Genta is your first love?" Feng Yuan said to Hattori.

"Ah, that's it! Thanks to you two, I finally found my first love..." Hattori Heiji said, and then punched Conan on the head, "Idiot!"

"Pain, pain..."

The gender doesn't match, let alone Genta didn't even exist eight years ago.Maplehara and Conan just couldn't help but want to laugh.

"But, Hattori," Maplehara said, "since they are all sung wrong, the girl you met eight years ago is probably not from Kyoto, right? Because children in Kyoto generally don't sing wrong, she should I just heard someone else sing it once and I misremembered it..."

"Impossible! I have confirmed that Miss Chiga Rei is who she was eight years ago..." Hattori Heiji said, and then returned to the topic, "Speaking of which, Kudo, you didn't go to investigate the case, but we learned important clues... "

"Maybe I put a bug in your clothes?"

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, then started groping around on his body.

"Idiot, such a long distance..." Conan immediately realized that Feng was joking, but he was stunned for a moment when he said it.

Looking up towards Feng Yuan, Conan saw that Feng Yuan had handed the juice in his hand to him, "You noticed it too, didn't you?"

"Ah, as expected of you..."

"Hey Kudo, what did you find?"

"Hattori, I told you before that I have a listening device, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Hattori Heiji asked confused.

"Bugs and transmitters go together."

"Sender?" Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, then looked at the drink in Maplehara's hand that Conan didn't take.

Since Kudo handed this drink to his other self to remind him, that means...

"That's it! Last night, the prisoner put the murder weapon and transmitter into a plastic water bottle, and then threw it into the river..."

“The water bottle recycling is then found through the tracking device.”

"Probably a tracker used by security companies to track children..."

And that kind of tracker can be found by just logging into the security company's website.

Thinking of this, he asked the doctor to take the children to meet Uncle Mori and others. Hattori Heiji and Conan dragged Maplehara to the riverside under the tea house to check it out and determined the feasibility of this plan.

Combined with the sound of something falling into the water that both Maplehara and Sonoko heard at that time, this means that Hattori Heiji and Conan's recent inferences have been overturned again, and the prisoner is most likely still one of the four.

By the time they returned to Sannoji Temple, it was already noon, and Officer Shiratori happened to be here to introduce the latest situation to Uncle Maori and others.

"Miss Chiga Rei's mother used to be a geisha in Miyagawa Town, and later died of illness when she was five years old. Her mother was an unmarried mother, so Miss Chiga Rei was adopted by the teahouse proprietress, Ms. Yamakura, and raised her alone. Adult…”

"What is an unmarried mother?" Genta asked, standing at the railing.

"It's a woman who gives birth to a child without getting married." Hui Yuan Ai replied casually.

Hattori and Conan sat in the room and listened, and she and Maplehara listened with the elementary school students while looking at the cherry blossom trees outside.

"Although I don't know who her biological father is," Officer Shiratori continued, "However, people send money to the teahouse anonymously every month, but since three months ago, there has been no more money sent. coming."

"Well," Uncle Maori thought, "That does sound strange..."

"But Officer Shiratori, how do you know?"

"Did that noble police officer tell you?" Hattori Heiji was referring to Police Officer Ayanokouji.

"No, don't look at me like this. I'm quite famous in Gion." Officer Shiratori was a little proud. "Although everyone says he is my competitor, I don't want to be with someone who carries him around every day." Squirrel guy on par.”

"Squirrel?" Xiaolan asked curiously.

"Well, he'll keep it in his pocket."

"Fortunately, we didn't bring the squirrel to the murder scene." Hattori Heiji complained. When police officer Ayanokouji arrived at the scene last night, the squirrel was not there.

At this time, Officer Shiratori's phone rang, and he got up and went to answer the phone. The person on the other side of the phone was the Megure Police Department.

The Memu Police Department conveyed to him the latest possibility that the Metropolitan Police Department had thought of.

Because the first three members of Genji Hotaru to die were each wearing a pair of gloves, a scarf and a hat, and all three were beige and seemed to be a set, so under the unintentional prompting of Officer Takagi, the Megure Police Department Think this may be dividing the relics equally.

Therefore, they further speculated that one of Yoshitsune or Benkei may have died.

Officer Shiratori delivered the news to everyone.

Uncle Maoli suddenly stood up and slammed the table excitedly.

"I see!"

Uncle Maori is obviously about to start his own reasoning.
