Now that they had talked about themselves as Kudo Shinichi, Conan came over and said, "Is it because we haven't completely solved the mystery of the code text?
Because the spelling of the keyword saturn only includes one a, but Big Ben, which represents a, appears twice in the code text.
There must be other reasons, right? "
at this time.
The hotel room door opened, and a young man wearing short sleeves walked in.
"It does mean something else, but that's exactly how it's spelled."
"Detective boy? Didn't Xiaolan say that you were busy investigating other cases?" Mouri Kogoro glanced at Kudo Shinichi in front of him.
Xiaolan seemed to be immobilized from just now, her face slowly turned red, and she murmured in surprise, "Shinichi..."
Conan: "???"
Dr. A Li: "..."
Kasuga Ling sat at the laptop table, her right hand gently clenched into a fist and pressed against the side of her face, with a hint of amusement in the corners of her eyes.
"Kudo Shinichi" smiled, "The code text was indeed solved that way, but we all overlooked one point, which resulted in not completing it."
"Wait, Shinichi, you said you ignored something? What was that?" Xiaolan's eyes filled with curiosity.
The corners of Kudo Shinichi's lips curled up, and a look of confidence flashed across his face, "This Hades Shabak, I have investigated him.
According to the information, before blowing up the hospital, he had also issued a crime notice full of code words.
After the hospital was blown up, he specially recorded a video of the explosion and sent it to the police.
Also attached is a letter interpreting his code text. "
Mouri Kogoro snorted and said, "He wants to tell the police to arrest him if they have the ability."
Kudo Shinichi said calmly.
"Yes, when the hospital was blown up for the second time, the police had already deciphered the code.
But even as the bomb squad defused the bomb, he detonated it and told the police it was too late. "
"What? Doesn't that mean that he will take action regardless of whether the code is cracked or not!" Mouri Kogoro looked horrified.
Conan said solemnly, "So we must decipher the code perfectly in advance, then quietly go to the destination, secretly approach the terrible suspect, and successfully arrest him so that it can end peacefully."
Kudo Shinichi took the London map from Moori Kogoro, and he picked up a pen and drew on it.
"The final way to decipher the code is to draw the location in the code on a map.
They are Big Ben, Elephant and Castle Station, City Hall, Gherkin, Church, and then Big Ben!
The last one is Walton Avenue where the ceramics store is located!
If you connect all these places in order, it will be this, a figure similar to a tennis racket!
Look! The reason why Big Ben appears twice in the code is because the locations of the code must be connected with lines! "
He picked up the map he had drawn and showed it to everyone.
Upon seeing this, everyone's expressions changed, and a trace of panic flashed in their eyes.
Xiaolan stretched out her hand nervously, "This tennis racket...could it be..."
Mouri Kogoro said blankly, "Wimbledon Tennis Tournament! I remember today is the final of Miss Minerva, right?!"
Dr. A Li understood that the other party was Kamu after Conan's reminder, so he felt relieved.
he wondered.
"Wimbledon, but didn't the entire answer be eliminated before?"
Conan reasoned seriously after hearing Kamu's advice.
"If the prisoner had told all the children who had received the message that someone was going to die before your eyes, Wimbledon would have been impossible.
However, the police have not yet been alerted to this mass murder. From this point of view, the suspect is likely to only speak to Apollo.
Giving the code text to other children was a deliberate attempt to confuse the police investigation methods.
If someone is about to die in front of Apollo, it means that the women's singles final of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships is likely to be the target of the suspect! "
Mouri Kogoro held the map drawn by Kudo Shinichi and asked strangely, "But why would the suspect focus on Wimbledon Tennis Tournament?"
"Maybe it has something to do with tennis? The place where the suspect gave Apollo the code note was also the Wimbledon stadium." Xiaolan rubbed her chin.
At this time.
Kasuga Ling tapped the keyboard of her laptop with the five fingers of her right hand and called up the information, "I think it's probably because of gambling."
Hearing this, several people cast curious glances.
Kasuga Ling continued, "Hades's mother passed away due to a heart attack in July last year.
Hades seemed to have missed the lottery result of a game a month ago. "
Kudo Shinichi said softly, "So that's it. Miss Miniba unfortunately lost the French tennis competition last year. That final was held in June.
Except for the games she missed due to injury, Miss Mineba won the championship.
If Hades, in order to raise the medical expenses for his mother’s surgery, bet a huge amount of money on Miss Minerva to win in the Open where he had a guaranteed chance of winning..."
Hearing this, Mouri Kogoro felt a little angry and said stiffly, "As a result, he lost all his money... His mother was unable to undergo surgery and unfortunately passed away..."
Xiaolan's eyes were horrified, "If you put it this way, could the suspect's target be..."
"Queen of the meadow, Miss Minerva Glass!" Conan said solemnly.
Seeing this, Kudo Shinichi smiled and left the hotel room quietly.
Chun Riling subconsciously yawned casually, as if to hide it, and a hint of smile flashed through her eyes.
The next thing is that Conan shouted that he was a disciple of Sherlock Holmes, and some people saw it on TV and then flew to Japan, right?
A touch outside the field is also quite cute, and it depends on one's own aesthetics.
It's just that it's not easy to tease.
…
In a taxi.
Mouri Kogoro looked at his watch anxiously, "It's past two o'clock now! The game has started long ago!"
Dr. A Li said blankly, "But what if we go to Wimbledon Tennis Stadium? We don't have tickets."
Mouri Kogoro shouted, "What's the point? As long as the momentum is strong enough, there will always be a way to solve it!"
Dr. A Li choked, "Use, use momentum?"
Seeing this, Xiaolan looked at Conan who was on the phone and asked, "How is it? Did Apollo answer the phone?"
"It's not connected yet." Conan said solemnly.
Kasuga Ling held her chin and said calmly, "Maybe I was watching the game, so I didn't notice it, or maybe I muted my phone?"
Just finished.
Conan's cell phone was connected immediately, and Apollo's voice came, "Moxi Moxi?"
He was shocked and said hurriedly, "Hello, Apollo?"
At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Conan.
On the other end of the phone, Apollo asked confused, "What's wrong? Has there been any progress on the secret code? Or has the criminal been caught?"
He grinned.
"Not yet, where are you now?"
"Because you can't make phone calls in the auditorium, so I came to the passage." Apollo answered honestly, and he was a little confused when he heard that the prisoner was not caught.
If this is not the reason for the good news, what will it be?
