Chapter 206 Uncle Maori Plays Stable
Suzuki Museum of Contemporary Art.
Security is tight outside the museum, as well as inside.
With Suzuki Sonoko leading the way, several people were spared from being checked by the guards.
Passing through the corridor, several people came to a beautifully decorated room.
When he opened the door, he saw Shiro Suzuki in a brown suit.
At this time, Suzuki Shiro was sitting on the red sofa, talking with three other guests of different colors.
Seeing a few people coming, his bloated figure immediately stood up from the sofa, and warmly greeted him: "Detective Maori and Detective Fujino, I'm sorry to trouble you all from afar."
After a brief exchange of greetings, he casually asked who the black man following behind them was.
After learning from Sonoko that the other party was also a famous detective, he politely extended an invitation to Hattori Heiji to protect the Egg of Memory together.
There's no need to spend money anyway, so there's nothing wrong with having a detective for free.
"Oh, just leave it to me, old man."
Hattori Heiji naturally agreed readily.
"Hey!"
Before Hattori Heiji finished speaking, Mori Kogoro couldn't sit still for the first time, jumped out and shouted loudly: "You stinky brat, how dare you call the chairman of the Suzuki chaebol an old man..."
"Okay, okay, Detective Mori, it's nothing serious."
Suzuki Shiro smoothed things over in embarrassment, and began to introduce the other people sitting on the sofa beside him.
Wearing a gray suit, a large, white-haired man named Sirouf Chinnikov is the first-level secretary of the Russian Embassy in Japan.
The purpose of coming here this time should be to try to bring the Egg of Memory back to Russia.
After all, the Egg of Memories was the treasure of Emperor Nicholas II of the Romanov dynasty.
The Romanov dynasty was the last feudal dynasty in Russia. It was overthrown after February... The Romanov dynasty is a bit unfamiliar, but when it comes to Tsarist Russia, everyone should be more or less familiar with it.
Nicholas II, the last emperor of Tsarist Russia, was considered the Russian version of Aisin Giorro.
It's just that his life was not as good as Pu's. In October...he was shot with a machine gun and returned to the west.
Wearing a red suit, the old man with graying hair is named Kanshoichi, an art dealer invited by Suzuki Shiro to appraise the value of the egg of memories.
And the woman with short gray hair, earrings, a blue professional suit with some Chinese style on the suit jacket, looks very handsome, and has slender legs is named Pusi Qinglan, who is Roman An expert in the study of the Novov dynasty.
"Hello."
When Pusi Qinglan said hello, she used Chinese.
Kind of lame.
The last one to introduce is the freelance video writer who applied to come here to take pictures of treasures, Samukawa Ryu.
The price of the egg of memory is worth [-] million yen.
Everyone has a keen interest in the Egg of Memory.
But in fact, only Gan Jiangyi can get [-] million yen.
Han Chuanlong said that he spent all his wealth, but he could only take out [-] million yuan.
"How come all of them are so rich?"
Listening to the conversation of the crowd, Fujino couldn't help being speechless for a while.
He can only come up with 630 million and [-] now.
[-] million, I dare not even think about it.
Putting away his thoughts, Fujino silently fixed his gaze on Pu Siqinglan, with thousands of thoughts in his heart.
Gray pupils, gray hair color, and a suit with Chinese elements.
If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely think that this woman must be a Chinese expert who specializes in the Romanov dynasty.
He could deceive ordinary people, but he couldn't deceive Fujino, a man with Chinese blood and a soul who grew up in China.
In fact, you can tell the difference simply by distinguishing it.
The eyes of Chinese people are actually not completely black, but dark brown. Fujino is almost the same, but because his cheap father is Chinese and his cheap mother is Neon, he is a bit completely black.
Gray pupils are more common in Russia.
In fact, not many Chinese people have gray eyes, unless the pupils are abnormal.
Therefore, Pusi Qinglan is a Russian, and his name should be fake. This can be seen from the surname Pusi and the name Qinglan.
After all, there is no Chinese with the surname Pusi, let alone a name like Qinglan. If it is called Xianhua, patriotic or something, he may still believe that Qinglan is too nonsense.
That is to say, there were no Chinese people present except him, otherwise she would just take a fake look.
But having said that, since Fujino came to this world, she hasn't seen many Chinese people... That's why she dared to be so blatant?
From a preliminary look, Fujino judged that the Pu Si Qinglan in front of him was not Chinese, but Russian.
And as a spoiler dog, he remembered that Pu Si Qinglan's true identity was the international thief Shi Kaobing.
It can be said that this Shi Kaobing is the most difficult problem in this commission.
…………
After a while, the remaining people left, and it was time for Fujino and others to appreciate the treasure they wanted to protect this time, which was the memory egg that Sonoko had used as a toy.
Masato Nishino came out of the door carrying a wooden box. Under the instructions of Shiro Suzuki, he placed the box on the coffee table.
Suzuki Shiro unpacked the box and opened the lid of the box. What came into view was an emerald green egg.
The egg is inlaid with delicate silver patterns, and there are some large black transparent gems on the top.
There is something else going on inside the egg. Shiro Suzuki opened the lid and revealed the family of Nicholas II carved in gold.
Then, he took out a key and opened the egg's mechanism. Nicholas II's seat rose and he began to flip through the golden album in his hand.
Suzuki Shiro took out a painting album from the side and put it on the coffee table next to the egg of memories. "This egg is recorded in the Romanov dynasty documents."
As he said, he pointed to the atlas in the album that was exactly the same as the egg of memory, "This egg was translated as the egg of memory, so in the notice letter of the thief, this egg was called the egg of memory." egg."
"The egg of memory?"
Mao Lilan asked doubtfully: "Is it translated from Russian to English?"
"Yes."
Suzuki Shiro nodded, "Russian is ВОСПОМИНАНИЕ (Persian Minarnia), translated into Japanese is the egg of memory."
"Hey!"
At this time, Conan suddenly asked his own question childishly: "Why is looking through the photo album called memories?"
"Stupid!"
Mouri Kogoro glanced at Conan with disdain, and then said as if he understood: "The emperor called his children to read a book. Doesn't that represent good memories?"
"Today's uncle is a bit too outrageous..."
Fujino narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Kogoro Mori, and whispered in his heart.
It must be to curry favor with Suzuki Shiro, right?
After all, Suzuki Shirou is the chairman of the Suzuki Zaibatsu, a top figure in Neon's upper class society.
As a social person, it is normal for Uncle Maori to want to be appreciated by such a top person.
It's just that this is a bit too obvious...
But in fact, think about it, it's not entirely true.
Sometimes, being more obvious is also a kind of wisdom, which can make the powerful understand that their behavior is to curry favor.
This may be the reason why Suzuki Shiro is more inclined to Uncle Maori.
Although Uncle Mao Li's ability is really hip-pull, but he knows how to please people.
As a time traveler and a systematic time traveler, Fujino is far behind in this regard.
Let him curry favor with the powerful?
He said: In front of the Hidden Sword, everyone is equal, everything is empty, and everything is allowed.
I am a red-flag materialist but dissatisfied with the powerful capitalists.
If you have the ability, come here and let me poke it with a Hidden Blade. I can see how many waists you have as a wealthy capitalist.
What's more, the person who hired him was Suzuki Tomoko. If he wanted to hug his thigh, it would be Suzuki Sono Tomoko's henpecked thigh.
"By the way, are those shiny things diamonds?"
Xiaolan pointed to the shining light spot on the top cover of the Memory Egg and asked curiously.
"It's not."
Suzuki Shiro waved his hand, "Those are just glass."
"Huh? Don't you feel weird?"
At this time, Conan started to crazily lead the topic again, "The gift made by the emperor, how could it be just ordinary glass?"
"Maybe it was because of what was caused by Bloody Sunday at that time...Russia was in turmoil at that time."
"When this egg was made, it was in February... and October... Nicholas II was ousted from power, and of course the Easter eggs will naturally be reduced."
At this time, Fujino said: "But when the country is in such a crisis, it is still making this kind of thing. It should be said that it is romantic, but it is still extravagant. It is no wonder that Tsarist Russia will perish.
Fujino's words attracted the attention of everyone present.
Conan looked at Fujino and frowned.
This kind of mourning, inexplicably, reminded him of a little mourner.
It seemed to be the same thing the last time I was in the cinema.
This guy Fujino must have been infected with some strange things by Haibara, right?
"Fujino-senpai, you know a lot..."
Under everyone's gaze, Xiaolan was the first to ask Fujino, "Isn't it mentioned in these textbooks?"
"Didn't you tell me?"
Fujino was taken aback when he heard this.
It took him a while to realize that there seemed to be no such things in the textbooks of Neon.
Neon is always a world ruled by capitalists and powerful people. The history textbooks in this world will not have this kind of history about red. Even if it does, it will be adapted.
So much so that neither Xiaolan nor Conan knew this.
It is precisely because of this that Fujino was unable to directly crush Teidan High School and win the first place in the test score list.
Even if he knew some of the answers, he would not write them down.
Putting away his thoughts, Fujino explained: "I only learned about this when I read books about this period of history. As a detective, you need to learn more useful knowledge."
"But speaking of it strange, Kaitou Kid's warning letter is more strange, right?"
Hattori Heiji interrupted loudly, holding his chin and thinking: "Why is the glowing sky pavilion a castle tower?"
"Fool."
Toyama and Ye teased Hattori Heiji, raised their heads and said: "Mr. Taikaku, who built Osaka, thinks that the development of Osaka is like the light of Osaka, and you don't even know this."
"Taiko Toyotomi Hideyoshi?"
Fujino's chin dropped when he heard this.
To be honest, when he was watching this plot in his previous life, he felt a little confused about who Tai Ge was.
But after traveling through time, his doubts were cleared.
Taiko is the self-proclaimed name of Toyota Hideyoshi. Of course, it can also be used to call Toyota Hideyoshi.
"There is absolutely nothing wrong with the fact that Kaitou Kidd will appear at the castle tower."
At this time, Ochagi Shintaro and Nakamori Ginzo pushed the door in, followed by two police officers in suits.
"But we still haven't figured out what it means when a clock without a second hand reaches No. 12."
Nakamori Ginzo helplessly spread his hands.
"Isn't that the 12th Japanese syllable?"
At this time, Yuan Shan and Ye suddenly said.
"I don't think so."
Fujino interrupted: "It's summer now, if it's a lion at dusk, four o'clock obviously doesn't match the dusk in the code."
"Do you think it might be the No. 12 word in the notice letter?"
After a pause, he continued: "From the lion at dusk to the maiden at dawn, the No. 12 character in it is ヘ. When combined with the clock, it is eight o'clock."
Conan and Hattori Heiji both nodded when they heard this, thinking that Fujino's words made sense, and they also agreed.
So I didn't think about going up to grab the limelight.
The two of them still care about the limelight.
After all, being a detective is even a high school detective. If it’s not for money, then of course it’s for fame.
"Hmph! Brother Fujino, you guessed wrong this time!"
But just after Fujino finished speaking, before anyone else could respond, Uncle Maori suddenly laughed and said, "It is impossible for Kaitou Kidd to leave such an obvious code!"
"really."
Chaki Shintaro nodded, and agreed: "If it is really No. 12, it would be too obvious."
"Actually, I already know the real time!"
Uncle Mao Li suddenly looked mysterious, "The code is not about the Japanese syllabary, nor is it No. 12, but the English alphabet."
Uncle Maori raised his watch and showed it to everyone, and then said: "The No. 12 number of the English alphabet is L, that is to say, Kaitou Kidd will be at three o'clock in the evening."
After being fooled by Uncle Mori, Suzuki Shiro and Chaki Shintaro were successfully fooled into lameness, and they all thought that Kaito Kidd would come at three o'clock in the morning.
Ginzo Nakamori clenched his jaw, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Hahahaha!"
Uncle Maori smiled triumphantly.
Fujino: "..."
Conan: "..."
Hattori Heiji:"…………"
Conan and Hattori Heiji showed their dead eyes. Conan and Hattori Heiji cast their eyes on Fujino, full of sympathy.
The two of them agreed with Fujino's reasoning.
He was the first to deduce a more reasonable answer, but his limelight was stolen by Uncle Maori.
Not to mention grabbing it, it's still so far-fetched.
This is no different from the Japanese fifty syllabary!
What English letters, the one that Fujino just said is more reasonable, right?
It doesn’t matter if it’s even a bit outrageous. You two, a president, and a senior police officer all believe it...
