In the lobby of the Guest House, as the little drama came to an end, staff began to distribute special bracelets to the guests in the lobby.
"Thanks."
Taking two bracelets from a staff member, Suzuki Ayako handed one of them to Shimizu Shizu next to her.
"Jingjun, the design of this bracelet looks pretty good."
"Indeed." Putting on the bracelet, Qing Shuijing followed her words and said: "The design with historical charm also fits the theme of this Edo Street."
"I feel that this design can actually go the high-end luxury route..." Suzuki Ayako said, with a thoughtful expression on her face.
Hearing this, Qing Shuijing turned to look at her and asked curiously: "I remember that the family's industry does not involve the field of luxury goods, right?"
The family he talks about naturally refers to the Suzuki Consortium.
As one of the largest conglomerates in Japan today, the Suzuki Consortium has invested in many areas of Japanese society, but it does not include the field of luxury goods.
"We always have to expand our business..." Suzuki Ayako explained with a smile: "After all, if possible, I still want to make some achievements before officially inheriting the consortium.
When the time comes, Jingjun, you have to come and help me, but you can’t just suddenly 'disappear' like you did some time ago..."
Suzuki Ayako feels that her fiancé is good in every way. The only bad thing about her is that he occasionally "disappears" suddenly for a few days and cannot be contacted.
Of course, "missing" was Suzuki Ayako's own statement. In fact, according to Shimizu Shizu, he just received commissions from some wealthy businessmen to paint for them. Because he needed to get rid of distracting thoughts when creating, he did not contact her... …
Suzuki Ayako did not doubt Qing Shuijing, but every time Qing Shuijing accepted a commission, she would feel a little disappointed...
"Okay." Qing Shuijing smiled and nodded without saying anything more.
At this moment, a male voice suddenly came from not far away from him.
"Thank you, little sister."
"Hehehe~ You are too polite, little brother~ Please hold the bracelet carefully~"
There was a hint of smile in the male's voice, and he sounded like a sunny and cheerful boy. Other than that, there was nothing too special about him.
However, when Qing Shuijing heard this voice, his pupils suddenly shrank, and a look of extreme shock appeared on his originally calm face.
Because he knows this voice.
【Father? 】
This is Bai Heqing's voice.
Qing Shuijing turned her head in disbelief and looked in the direction of the male voice.
But he only saw the female staff member who had just spoken. She was still smiling and distributing bracelets to the crowd.
Among them, there was no figure found that Qing Shuijing thought fit Bai Heqing's image.
Is it disguised?
【Why? 】
His eyes swept over the surrounding crowd repeatedly, and the expression on Qing Shuijing's face gradually returned to calm.
[No, this was not part of the original plan, but...]
"Jingjun, what's wrong?" Suddenly, Suzuki Ayako's voice interrupted Qingshui Jing's thinking.
"It's okay, I was just a little distracted..." Quickly recovering, Qing Shuijing looked back and replied with a smile.
Did he hear it wrong?
However, the voice just now was clearly...
"Hey, hey, the guy on the screen just said something about giving us hints, but in the end he gave us nothing..."
The movement on Shimizu Shizu's side did not attract anyone's attention. At the same time, on the other side, Mouri Kogoro doubtfully took the special bracelet handed over by the staff and said loudly to the host Yukisada on the stage.
"Hey, don't worry about this~"
Xue Ding smiled cutely, raised her right hand with a bracelet on it, and shouted to everyone:
"Everyone, you should have got the bracelet, right? Please press and hold the start button on the surface of the bracelet, and then follow the above prompts to download the corresponding software on your phone.
Just like this, wait for it to be installed, clang ~ In this way, our Edo Street navigation software is installed!
This software not only records a complete map of Edo Street, but also uses satellites for real-time positioning, so even the most wanderlust-free children don’t have to worry about getting lost in our Edo Street~
So, the basic introduction ends here, and then we will officially start to catch that abominable Phantom Thief! Is everyone ready? "
Xue Ding asked with a smile on the stage. Everyone off the stage was quiet, with only a few sporadic responses.
"Really, you should be more enthusiastic at least..."
Xueding stuck out his tongue and continued to say in a cute tone:
"On our navigation software, you will receive puzzles and prompts about the Phantom Thief in a while. After solving these puzzles, you can get close to the Phantom Thief's location. Next, let us all work together to catch him. Bar!"
As Xue Dingyao's words fell, the event officially began.
"Oh? This event is quite carefully designed..." Mouri Kogoro said as he tinkered with the software on his phone.
At this time, several lines of text appeared on the software.
[The place where the Phantom Thief is hiding is locked, and a password is needed to open the lock. The password that can unlock the lock is an English letter. 】
"Oh! It's started, it's started!" Lingmu Yuanzi looked at this prompt, came to Mao Lilan's side, and asked curiously: "Xiaolan! Did you think of anything?"
"No, no, I'm not a detective..." A helpless smile appeared on Mao Lilan's face.
"Damn it! Which English letters can be used as passwords? It would be great if that guy Shinichi is still here at this time. If not, even that little devil Conan can do it!"
Suzuki Sonoko stared at these few lines of prompts on the software, her eyes widening a lot. It was obvious that she was very interested in this event.
Behind the two of them, Hui Yuan Ai, who was originally quiet, hesitated for a moment when he heard these words, and then said intentionally or unintentionally:
"If we interpret it completely in English, will we be able to solve the mystery..."
Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko to hear.
"English?"
Unfortunately, both of them still had puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Jing Jun, have you solved the puzzle?" On the side, Suzuki Ayako looked at Qing Shui Jing beside her.
"Um?"
Seemingly thinking about something, Qing Shuijing seemed to be a little distracted. It was after hearing Suzuki Ayako's voice that he reacted and quickly lowered his head to look at the prompts on the software.
"Well, it's untied."
After just one glance, he pointed to somewhere on the software map with a smile and said: "The answer to the mystery is here, the clock tower."
There is a clock tower built in this Mihua Edo Street.
