Chapter 233 Marriage Application
While explaining the witness statements of the elementary school students to Officer Takagi, Officer Takagi also learned and told Maplehara that the victim, Mr. Hosoetsu, had regained consciousness after surgery.
It is worth mentioning that Mr. Xiyue was initially unwilling to say who the person who stabbed him was, but hoped that the person would surrender. He was unwilling to speak until he learned that the case had been solved.
This is obviously a story of revenge.
But in any case, the case ended like this, and the Young Detective Team successfully restored its reputation.
A few more uneventful days followed.
"By the way, wasn't that big brother already a seven-time champion last time? Why are we still competing?" Yuantai asked curiously.
While walking in the streets, the young detective team started chatting about this topic because they saw the news of a shogi match on a public screen in a certain building not long ago.
The big brother Gentai refers to is the famous Haneda Hideyoshi whom they have met and become familiar with in several incidents before. He entered today's final battle with three wins and three losses and is currently competing.
"That's why it was said in the news that he was defending the title..."
"What is defending the title?" Genta looked at Fengyuan in confusion.
"It means winning the championship again, Genta." Mitsuhiko explained helpfully.
"There are seven major title matches in professional shogi," Conan said. "Today's battle is the king-shogi battle, and the last one was a celebrity battle. Meimei Haneda won the title of celebrity last time and achieved seven crowns..."
"Ah! Is this the day we went to rescue the sister who drove the mini patrol car?" Ayumi asked.
A few weeks ago, Haneda Hideyoshi's girlfriend, police officer Yumi Miyamoto, was kidnapped. The young detective team met Haneda Hideyoshi, who asked for a long exam and temporarily left the competition. Together with him, they solved the code given by the prisoner and found the prisoner and Miyamoto. Moto Yumi.
"Yes, it was that time..." Haiyuan Ai said.
"But what a coincidence, we just happened to talk about her," Fengyuan looked not far away, "and we met her."
As they spoke, they turned a corner, and then Feng Yuan noticed two familiar figures in front of them.
Others followed Maplehara's line of sight and saw Officer Sato and Officer Yumi Miyamoto from the Traffic Department standing by the garbage dump near an apartment building, seemingly looking for something.
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi faintly smelled the atmosphere of the incident and ran forward quickly. Feng Yuan and others also quickened their pace to follow.
"What are you doing here?"
"What's the case?"
Hearing the voices of the elementary school students, Officer Sato and Officer Yumi Miyamoto both looked back in surprise.
However, Miyamoto Yumi seemed to be in a bad mood now and looked a little impatient. However, Officer Sato kindly bent over and answered the students' questions.
"Yes!" Officer Sato said, "Yumi threw away something very important as trash!"
"Mei, Miwako..."
"oh…"
"Are you stupid?" Genta looked at Miyamoto Yumi, "Don't throw away important things!"
"Oh, I said it was an accident..."
"Did you accidentally put it in the garbage bag?" Haiyuan Ai asked.
"I put it in a fashion magazine and bundled it with other magazines and threw it away."
"Yumi, you are so sloppy..." Officer Sato complained.
"I don't want to be told by you!"
"But today is not the day to throw out recyclable garbage?" Conan looked at the sign on the garbage dump, which said the schedule for throwing out various types of garbage.
"Ah? Really?"
"Yes. So, even if you put that bundle of magazines here, Sister Yumi, they won't be taken away," Maplehara took over Conan's words, "But, the bundle of magazines is not here now..."
"That is to say, it is possible that the manager of this apartment took it to another place for safekeeping, right? If it is found that it was Yumi-san who threw it out, maybe it will be put back at the door of Yumi-san's house..."
As soon as Conan finished speaking, Miyamoto Yumi ran towards the door of her house. Others quickly followed.
After going upstairs and arriving at the door of Yumi Miyamoto's room, they saw the bundle of magazines at a glance.
"Found it! Great!" Miyamoto Yumi breathed a sigh of relief.
"The serious administrator also posted a piece of paper on it," Officer Sato looked at the bundle of magazines, "it said that recyclable garbage must be thrown away on Tuesday..."
Miyamoto Yumi immediately looked through the magazine.
"But," Mitsuhiko was a little curious, "how did the administrator know that this was the garbage thrown by sister Yumi?"
"If he has been an administrator for a long time, he should know it," Conan explained. "You can judge it based on the magazines that the residents in the building often buy. Most of the people who mix fashion magazines and mahjong magazines are the only ones who mix fashion magazines and mahjong magazines. Sister Yumi, right?”
"And judging by Yumi-sama's appearance," Maplehara added, "it's definitely not the first time I've thrown out the trash at the wrong time. If the administrator is so serious, I think there won't be anyone who makes a mistake again after being reminded. many…"
So it is not difficult to think that it was Miyamoto Yumi who threw the garbage.
There were not many magazines in the bundle, so they did not go up to help Miyamoto Yumi, but just watched her rummaging through it.
Miyamoto Yumi looked directly at the magazine to see if it had an interlayer, and then threw the magazine she was looking for aside. But soon, she showed a very annoyed expression.
"No! I can't find it! I can't find it anywhere!"
"What are you looking for?" Mitsuhiko couldn't help but ask her.
"One hundred million yen!" Yumi Miyamoto turned around and shouted.
"ah!?"
"She put a very important envelope in a fashion magazine as a bookmark..." Officer Sato explained helpfully.
"Ah," Haihara Ai raised his head and looked at Officer Sato, "It's the envelope containing the marriage application, right?"
"Well, well, it should be..."
"Haiyuan, how did you know?" Fengyuan was a little curious.
"Ah, it turns out there are areas you are not familiar with..." Haiyuan Ai looked at Feng Yuan, feeling a little proud, "It's just intuition."
"intuition…"
"Could it be that another woman picked it up, wrote her name in the wife's column, and then handed it over to the Civil Affairs Bureau..." Guangyan guessed.
"No way!"
"If your husband is that famous person from Taige," Haibara Ai agreed with Mitsuhiko's words, "it's normal for the person you found to have a heartbeat..."
"And that's 100 million yen..." Maplehara added.
"What!?"
"Anyway, let's go ask the administrator first!" Conan suggested. "Maybe he found out that it was a very important envelope and kept it for you?"
There is no other way, Miyamoto Yumei follows the good and the good. Soon they arrived outside the administrator's room together. Miyamoto Yumi went to ring the doorbell and expressed her intention to come.
People in the room responded immediately.
"Here you come!" The person who answered the door was an elderly man in his seventies, "You're finally here, Chacha!"
"Chacha?" Yuantai asked doubtfully.
"It should refer to the Asai Chacha Bar, which is Toyoda Hideyoshi's side room," Maplehara explained in a low voice. "Judging from the attitude of the old man, he seems to have some opinions on the relationship between Yumi sister and Haneda celebrity..."
Speaking of which, Maplehara himself is not sure what his attitude is towards the relationship between Akemi's sister and Akai Shuichi...
At the same time, Miyamoto Yumi in front expressed her dissatisfaction to the administrator, Mr. Yatsuka Toroku, with her hands on her hips: "Didn't I tell you not to call me that? It sounds very uncomfortable..."
"What do you mean?" Police Officer Sato obviously didn't hear what Maplehara just said.
"I don't know either! When Shouji came to my house to play, he happened to meet the administrator..." Yumi Miyamoto looked at Mr. Yazuka unhappily, "Since then, he has been calling me Chacha..."
"Aren't you just a vicious woman who made Taige lose his ambition?"
"Grandpa, do you also like shogi?" Conan asked.
"Yes, I am a professional! However, I learned a lesson once..." Mr. Yazuka recalled, "That was more than ten years ago, at an event in a shopping mall, a junior high school student professional chess player was invited. I also went to participate. I thought I could kill the little kid without leaving any trace, but in the end I was completely defeated...
I was deeply attracted by his crisp and neat chess style, and to this day I am a huge admirer of Taige celebrities! Every time he wins the championship, I am as happy as if I had won the championship myself, and I live a leisurely and contented life like this..."
"Until I get caught by this Chacha..." As he said that, he looked at Miyamoto Yumi again.
"catch?"
"This uncle used to be a habitual pickpocket!" Yumi Miyamoto explained to Officer Sato, "He tried to steal my wallet on the train, but I caught him and threw him directly into the police station... He had no job after he was released from prison, so I Introduce him here to be the manager of this apartment!"
"Oh, that's how it is…"
"Compared with these, tell me quickly!" Yumi Miyamoto urged Mr. Yazuka, "It's stuck in the magazine I threw away as trash today..."
"ah…"
Mr. Yatsuka took out his mobile phone and showed a photo on his mobile phone to Miyamoto Yumi. Maplehara also looked over curiously and found that the photo was indeed a marriage application with Haneda Hideyoshi's name written on it.
"Are you looking for this?" Mr. Yazuka asked.
"Did you, did you read what was in the envelope!?"
"What does it matter? Didn't you throw it away as garbage?"
"Bad old man! Return it to me quickly! My marriage application!"
"Huh?" Mr. Yazuka pretended to be thinking, "Where did I put it..." He turned back and glanced at the room inside, "Maybe it was placed in the room inside, right? My memory is not very good recently... "
"Get out of the way!" Miyamoto Yumi walked in impatiently and bumped into Mr. Yatsuka who was deliberately blocking the door. "I'll go find it myself!"
She pushed open the door and walked into the room inside.
Mr. Yazuka didn't seem to mind this, and he didn't even mind that the young detective team followed him in. So Fengyuan and the others also walked into this small room.
This is a bedroom, compactly furnished with a bed, a set of tables and chairs, and a bookcase. There was also a laptop on the table. Maplehara could hear that the computer was still running, but the lid was closed.
When he walked into the room, Miyamoto Yumi, who came in first, had already opened the drawer of the table and looked at it, "Hey! There's nothing on the table or in the drawer!"
"It should be in this room..." Mr. Yazuka said.
"Wouldn't it be better to wait until he finds it and return it to you?"
"Yes, yes..." Yumi Miyamoto felt that Officer Sato was right.
"You don't have time to hesitate." Mr. Yazuka continued, "In the marriage application, the husband's occupation column said chess player and seven-time champion - that requires extraordinary consciousness and determination. !”
"Y-really?"
"But in this battle between kings and generals, Taige celebrities are in a tough fight, and the reason is probably this marriage application. When he was interviewed by a magazine, he accidentally said - my most important person has not replied yet, and now it really This is not the time to play chess. In other words—"
Mr. Yatsuka paused and showed the photo on his phone to Yumi Miyamoto again.
"——If Taige fails to defend his title in the battle between kings and generals, this marriage application with Seven Crowns on it will be invalid!"
"Aha?"
"Then call him now!" Officer Sato said quickly to Miyamoto Yumi, "Tell him - let's get married!"
"What!?"
"It's useless. The chess players in the match don't carry mobile phones. The only chance to see him is to leave the competition site to have lunch. If Chacha shows up there with the marriage application, he You can gain immense power and be able to defeat any opponent..."
Mr. Yazuka said and looked at his watch again, "There is still one hour before the lunch break."
"You must know where the envelope is, right?" Miyamoto Yumi shouted to Mr. Yazuka, "Where is it? Where did you hide it?"
"Then show me your consciousness!"
"Awakening?"
"No matter what happens, you will follow the enlightenment of the Taige celebrities! As long as you have such a firm belief, you can find one or two envelopes or something very quickly!"
Miyamoto Yumi was a little dazed, and Officer Sato and the elementary school students were also a little hard to understand. But immediately they heard other voices coming from the side.
"Could this be it?" Conan asked.
When he came in, he happened to see Feng Yuan looking at the computer, so he also looked over. The computer seemed a bit old-fashioned, and even he could hear the sound of it running when it was standing still, so he turned it on curiously. The closed lid of the computer.
On the screen is an interface for entering a password.
"It says please enter an 8-digit password here!" Conan continued, "And it also says [Only Yodo-kun can enter]!"
"Who is Yodo-kun?" Ayumi asked curiously.
"She is Taige Hideyoshi's wife, Chacha." Haibara Ai replied.
"But what number do you need to enter?" Mitsuhiko asked.
"As long as you try this one by one, you can always try it!"
"This is an eight-digit password," Maplehara said. "If you try it one by one, by the time you try it out, let alone the competition, sister Yumi may have already married a famous Haneda..."
"Yes!" Miyamoto Yumi nodded, not being secretive at all about her desire to marry Haneda Hideyoshi, which was completely different from her behavior when Maplehara and the others saw her and Haneda Hideyoshi together before.
"And it says you can't make a mistake..." Conan added.
"Does that mean that if you make a mistake once, you won't be able to open it again?"
"Then what should we do?"
"It's very simple. As long as you find the eight numbers hidden in this room and ask Sister Yumi to input them into this computer, you can know the location of the envelope." Conan looked at Mr. Yazuka, "That's what it is, right? Bad?" A thoughtful old man?"
"Well, that's right..."
"In that case, let's look for it separately!"
"Great!"
The elementary school students immediately started looking for them, and Officer Sato and Yumi Miyamoto later joined the battlefield. Mr. Yazuka didn't care at all that his room was being searched. On the contrary, he was in a good mood.
Soon, Yuanta searched in the empty trash can and found a strange piece of paper.
This is a square piece of paper, covered with strange patterns composed of various simple lines. The young detective team each took a photo and thought about it, while Miyamoto Yumi held the original.
"Hey...what is this!" Yumi Miyamoto said, "I have no clue at all!"
"It's okay..." Haiyuan Ai comforted, "This code is very similar to the dancing little man in the story of Sherlock Holmes..."
As she spoke, she looked at Fengyuan, "And we have two super Sherlock Holmes fans here, so they must..."
She didn't finish her sentence.
Things were not what she thought.
She saw that Fengyuan was indeed looking at the photo of the piece of paper he had just taken on his phone, but he was frowning slightly.
He rarely expresses his emotions so openly...
and--
In the sight of Haiyuan Ai, Fengyuan raised his hand and pressed his own temple.
He suddenly had a headache, a physical headache.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Hui Yuan Ai quickly walked to Feng Yuan and asked in a low voice.
"It's okay..." Fengyuan hesitated and shook his head slightly, "I just felt a sudden sting in my head...I'm fine now..."
Huihara Ai was still a little worried.
But at this time, Ayumi and others had already gathered around them curiously, and she couldn't say anything else.
"Can't you even untie Conan and Fengyuan?" Mitsuhiko asked.
Hearing Mitsuhiko's words, Haibara Ai looked at Fengyuan again, and then looked at Conan, noticing the tangled expression on Conan's face...
But Conan didn't look like he had a headache.
"Is it true?" Yuantai asked in surprise.
"Is it that difficult?" Ayumi was also a little surprised.
"Yeah..." Fengyuan replied, "I have no clue at all...and when it comes to this kind of thing, Conan is better at it than me..."
Conan rolled his eyes at Fengyuan angrily, then scratched his hair, and then looked at the photos on his phone.
He didn't even know if it was a number, word, or graphic.
