"Ha...it's great to drink a nice martini after exercise~"
At the bar, Terai Huangnosuke sighed while beating his back.
The ingredients are gin and spicy absinthe. I have to say that this statement is really dangerous...
Ye Gengyi picked up the V-shaped cup and drank it in one gulp, while his eyes fell on the map on the side.
He had noticed it before when he was drinking the glass of fruit wine, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Now when he looked closer, he could intuitively see the areas circled with pencils.
They are all in the suburbs...
"Mr. Terai, are you planning to go camping?" Ye Gengyi was really surprised.
Could it be that the trip to Mermaid Island caused psychological trauma to Kaito, so he planned to take the old butler and his little girlfriend with him to go for a walk in the mountains?
"Hahaha, old man, I don't have the grace to wander around anymore."
Terai Huangnosuke didn't hide it. He picked up the laptop and opened it, turning the screen to let Ye Gengyi check the contents.
This is a news report.
Putting aside those unimportant texts, there is only one key point that can be extracted.
Someone discovered a map in the warehouse of the known residence of Kichiemon Sansui, the puppet master of the Tokugawa period.
However, due to insufficient preservation, the content has long been blurred. It can only be vaguely seen that the place marked on the map is in a mountain forest surrounded by trees, and there are rivers around it.
A treasure house nestled among mountains and rivers?
Ye Gengyi printed the map in his mind, and quickly compared the scenes in his memory, and then discovered... It seemed that he had been to very few mountains and forests.
Well, not much help.
Ye Gengyi looked away and said calmly: "I can't see where it is."
"It's really hard to find..."
Terai Kinosuke first nodded in agreement, then smiled, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "However, I already have some clues."
Old man, your desire to win is too strong. Putting aside the first two rounds of billiards, I didn't beat you in the last round...
Ye Gengyi sighed secretly.
Although he was not interested in the machine puppet master or anything like that, looking at Terai Kinosuke's expression of 'Ask me, ask me, ask me quickly', he still said cooperatively:
"Oh? How did you find it?"
"Ahem... This is all thanks to Mr. Touichi's notes," Terai Kinosuke cleared his throat, "Although the puppet master and the magician sound like two professions, they rely on their techniques and props to give the audience 'The purpose of bringing novelty and shock is the same..."
Can’t you finish a sentence?
Ye Gengyi's expression was calm, and he clapped his palms twice in a serious manner, "Oh, awesome, awesome."
"Ahem..."
Terai Huangnosuke didn’t sell out anymore and explained:
"When Mr. Touichi was young, in order to improve his magic level, he searched everywhere for the props made by Kichiemon Sansui. In his notebook, he recorded a sketch of a Nioh Stone, which seemed to match the location of this map. They coincided, but because it was a sketch and the coordinates were not clearly marked, I roughly compared it with the map and found that there were 7 or 8 places that were particularly similar..."
Seven or eight?
Ye Gengyi said: "These are the places marked with pencils on the map, right?"
"Yes," Terai Kinosuke nodded, "Master Kaito was particularly concerned about this matter after seeing the news, so he asked me to help with the investigation."
"Huh? Let Mr. Terai help with the investigation?"
Ye Geng glanced at the table, but did not see the pencil on it, and asked: "Why doesn't he go directly to the scene? Although these locations are far apart, even if the luck is worse, 3 to 4 days will be enough for them all. The search is over.”
"Huh? So Mr. Ye, you don't know..."
Terai Kinosuke was startled for a moment, "Master Kaito caught a bad cold after returning from the sea. He has been resting in bed at home these days. Because the master said that this matter must be investigated personally, I will do my best to investigate it." Help collect relevant information.”
Uh...you caught a cold after returning from sea?
This child's health is too bad. It should be...well, it must have nothing to do with me, right?
Ye Gengyi was a little confused about whether he should feel guilty a little bit, but he felt that doing so was too troublesome, so he skipped this link and said seriously:
"I'll go home to see him after dawn."
…
Early morning market.
Ye Gengyi and the disguised Miyano Akemi each carried two large bags of food and left here on foot towards Kuroba Kaito's home.
"In the end...you still bought the fish."
Miyano Akemi mourned two seconds of silence for a certain thief in her heart.
"I prepared it for myself. Of course, if that kid is dishonest, I don't mind letting him use it first..."
Ye Gengyi yawned. He had not slept for two days in a row and was involved in three cases. In the early morning, he had a few drinks with Terai Huangnosuke. At this time, he was in urgent need of a can of coffee to refresh himself.
"are you OK?"
Miyano Akemi originally wanted to inquire about her sister's current situation, but when she saw the "I'm very tired" expression on Ye Gengyi's face, she suddenly didn't know how to speak.
"I'm not very good, but...your sister is not bad."
Ye Gengzhi said bluntly: "Speaking of which, I was too concerned about the shooting last time. I forgot to tell you that I have five selfies of your sister here. Well... the kind you rarely see."
"Eh? When was it taken?" Miyano Akemi hurriedly asked, "Can't you just send it to me via email?"
"What should I do if I lose it?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"Well……"
"I'm referring to the mobile phone. Don't rush to make guarantees yet..." Ye Geng glanced sideways, "Let me ask you, how many thieves did we encounter in total during the time we were buying vegetables at the market?"
"Ah?" Miyano Akemi was confused.
"2."
Although Ye Gengyi did not give any explanation for his judgment, Miyano Akemi knew that with this person's character, if he didn't want to give, he would just say no, so there was no need to make up a reason to persuade or comfort her emotions. .
"You should also be vigilant in normal times. It's very troublesome if your phone is stolen." Ye Gengyi yawned. "If you want, just buy a new phone for your own use. I will help you write a self-destruct program when you have time. Pay attention. Just don’t take it out.”
"yes!"
Miyano Akemi's eyes lit up, and she asked in a low voice with some anticipation:
"That... is Zhi... cough, what kind of photo is my sister?"
"It's forced to open for business," Ye Gengding commented: "But there are still some gambling products. If you lose, you will admit it."
All right……
In one sentence, the reason why there are those photos is explained clearly.
Miyano Akemi sweated a little.
But I’m looking forward to it even more…
