"I was working as a pastry chef in Paris, and I came back to sort out my grandmother's belongings. When I was sorting them out, I suddenly found a picture drawn by my great-grandfather, but it was a little torn in the middle."
Saying that, Natsumi Kasaka took out a piece of paper and spread it flat on the table.
President Suzuki looked at the picture carefully, "Memory! It is indeed the egg of memory!"
Then he was a little unsure, "But there are gems on it?"
Mouri Kogoro on the side said: "Maybe it was originally inlaid with gems, but it fell off afterward."
Conan came over and after looking at the picture for a while, he said, "Could it be that there were two eggs on it?"
Several people looked at him in surprise, and Conan continued: "Because if you look at it, if there is only one egg, the outline of the egg will not fit together, so could it be that there are two eggs in this picture originally, but the one in the middle Parts were torn off."
Having said this, Conan picked up the Egg of Memories and looked left and right. Suddenly, a piece of mirror fell off while he was playing with it.
Mouri Kogoro was a little angry, "What are you doing, kid!"
Conan quickly said: "A mirror has been dropped!"
Mouri Kogoro's eyes widened, "What!"
Xiaolan on the side was also a little anxious, "Conan!"
On the other hand, Sonoko hurriedly comforted her: "It's okay. That mirror is easy to remove. It seems to have been installed later."
Conan looked at the mirror with his eyes. Suddenly, his lenses lit up.
"Mr. Nishino, please turn off the lights."
Mouri Kogoro was a little angry, "Hey, you kid, don't mess around!"
The lights were turned off, and Conan took out a watch-shaped flashlight and shined it into the lens.
Just on the wall is an image of a castle.
Siluov said in surprise: "Why do images appear?"
The general on the side said: "It's a magic mirror!"
"Magic mirror?"
Pu Siqinglan said: "I heard that there are magical mirrors in Japan and China."
Gan Jiangyi continued: "The mirror has been specially processed. Some hidden Catholics in Japan use the cross reflected on the wall to pray."
Xiaolan looked at Shirakawa Yuki next to her with some curiosity, "Haruna, do you know this kind of mirror?"
In her eyes, if you don't understand something, you can know the answer by asking Haruna.
Hearing her voice, everyone on the side looked at the white-haired girl.
Looking at everyone's curious eyes, Shirakawa Yuki nodded, "I do know something about it. This kind of mirror should be similar to a light-transmitting mirror."
"Light-transmitting mirror?"
Shirakawa Yuki nodded, "Yes, it is the light-transmitting mirror. The light-transmitting mirror is a bronze mirror with special effects called the "magic mirror" made in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty in China. It embodies the principles of optics and mechanics and transmits light. The mirror gets its name because the pictures and texts on the back of the mirror are reflected on the wall when exposed to sunlight.
The translucent mirror was first recorded in the "Mengxi Bi Tan" written by Shen Kuo, a scientist in the Northern Song Dynasty in China: There is a translucent mirror in the world, and there are inscriptions on the back of the mirror. The characters on the two crosses are extremely ancient and cannot be read. If the sun shines through, the text on the back and the two crosses will shine through on the wall of the house, making them clear. "
Everyone nodded in understanding.
Conan on the side also lamented Shirakawa Yuki's wide range of knowledge.
Shirakawa Yuki continued: "As for its principle, it is caused by many tiny uneven curvature differences on the mirror surface. The mirror surface is slightly concave where pictures and texts are located, and the mirror surface is slightly convex where there are no pictures and texts. The light in the concave areas converges, while the light in the convex areas diverges. The bright and dark parts corresponding to the graphics on the back of the mirror appear in the image, thus forming the graphics on the back of the mirror on the wall.”
After hearing her explanation, everyone nodded, and President Suzuki looked at her in admiration: "Your knowledge is really broad, amazing!"
Shirakawa Yuki shook his head, "President Suzuki is overrated."
President Suzuki smiled, "Hey, you are Sonoko's friend, just call me Uncle Suzuki."
Shirakawa Yuki said with a smile: "Okay, Uncle Suzuki."
Then the topic returned to this pattern.
Natsumi Kasaka looked at Mr. Sawabe on the side and asked uncertainly: "Mr. Sawabe, this city?"
Sawabe nodded, "Yes, there is nothing wrong with it being Yokosuka's castle!"
After hearing what they said, Xiaolan asked curiously: "Is the castle in Yokosuka the one that often appears in advertisements?"
Natsumi Kasaka nodded, "Yes, that castle was built by my great-grandfather and managed by my great-grandmother."
Mouri Kogoro suddenly said: "By the way, Miss Natsumi, as far as I know these two eggs were made by your great-grandfather, right?
Your great-grandfather made these two eggs with your great-grandmother after the Russian Revolution and brought them back to Japan.
Maybe the gems on the second egg were sold and the Yokosuka castle was built. As for the first egg, it was hidden in the castle, and the magic mirror was used to tell us this information. "
I have to say that Kogoro Mouri’s reasoning makes sense.
Natsumi Kasaka searched for a while in her bag, "Actually, besides the pictures, there is also this old key. Is this what you are talking about?"
Mouri Kogoro said firmly: "In my opinion, this is the key to where the second egg is hidden."
Sirouf touched his chin and said, "The dream egg encrusted with gems!"
The go-getter Yiyi on the side also said: "If you find something worth one billion, oh no, it must be worth more than 1.5 billion!"
At this moment, Natsumi Kasaka sent an invitation to Kogoro Mori, "Mr. Mori, when we arrive in Tokyo, I hope you can come to the castle with me, okay?"
Mouri Kogoro agreed: "Of course, no problem!"
Hearing this, Siroufu, Kanshouichi, Samkawa Ryu and Ushi Qinglan were all vying to go, but Kasaka Natsumi agreed.
…
"Be obedient and don't move!"
In the room, Xiaolan was gently bandaging the wound of Kidd's pigeon.
Xiaolan said with a smile: "The bleeding has stopped. As long as the injury is healed, I can still fly."
Conan was also very happy, "Really? That's great!"
Xiaolan sat down, "I don't know if Kidd is dead."
Shirakawa Yuki said with a smile: "That guy won't die so easily, don't worry!"
There was a knock on the door.
Xiaolan opened the door and saw Hanchuan standing at the door holding a camera, "Not bad, that's the expression, I took it!"
After that, he turned around and left.
Looking at his back, I really couldn't figure out what he was doing.
At this time, Sonoko's voice came from behind, "Hi, Xiaolan, and Haruna, I'm here to play with you!"
Looking back, I found Sonoko, Natsumi Kasaka and Secretary Nishino.
Xiaolan invited them to enter the room together.
But for some unknown reason, Secretary Nishino left in a hurry as soon as he entered the room, leaving Xiaolan confused.
Yuanzi joked: "It seems that we have too many beauties here, and he is shy! He is so cute."
Then, she said: "By the way, there's Miss Qinglan, I'll call her!"
As for what the "magic mirror" is in The Magician at the End of the Century, I didn't find any information on the Internet, so I checked it myself and found that this kind of light-transmitting mirror made in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty in my country is most similar. At the same time, coincidentally, , the light-transmitting mirror is also called the "magic mirror".
It is called a translucent mirror because when light shines on the mirror, the pattern on the back of the mirror is reflected on the wall facing the mirror. According to relevant expert research, it is believed that during the casting process of this kind of bronze mirror, the concave and convex patterns on the back of the mirror are different in thickness and shrink during solidification, resulting in casting stress. After casting, grinding produces compressive stress, thus forming physical elasticity. deformation. When polished to a certain extent, this elastic deformation acts additively to produce a corresponding curvature between the mirror surface and the mirror back pattern, resulting in this light transmission effect.
Shen Kuo, a scientist in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote in "Mengxi Bi Tan·Usage": There is a translucent mirror in the world, and there are inscriptions on the back of the mirror. The characters on the two crosses are extremely ancient and cannot be read. If the sun shines through, the text on the back and the two crosses will shine through on the wall of the house, making them clear. People have their own theory, saying that when casting, the thin areas are cold first, but the thickness on the back is different, and the copper shrinks more when it is cold. Although the writing is on the back, there are faint traces on the inspection surface, so it appears in the light. In my opinion, it is true. However, the Yu family has three mirrors, and I also see that the ones collected by other families are all the same. There are no subtle differences in the calligraphy, painting, and inscriptions, and the shape and form are very ancient. Only this light is transparent, and no other mirror, no matter how thin, can penetrate it. The ancients had their own skills.
I am just saying this to express my appreciation for the wisdom of our ancient Chinese people. The Shanghai History Museum has two translucent mirrors from the Western Han Dynasty in its collection.
