"That's fine," Hattori Heiji was also worried about the safety of Toyama, Ye, and Mao Lilan. He reminded Kogoro Maori before he made the call, "By the way, uncle, just call me and say I'm worried." The next exam is not going well, and I want to hang an ema for studying at Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, but I heard that Kitano Tenmangu Shrine will not sell ema to the public this afternoon. I may not be able to make it, so I want to ask Kazuha to take my place. Let's go and ask Xiaolan to accompany He Ye to have a look... As long as I say so, they should go back to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine to find other people, because if I tell them directly that the painter is related to the murderer, I'm worried about Ye You will try to be brave and want to help, but you won’t want to go back, so please just say so!”
"Know it……"
Mouri Kogoro looked troubled, but he didn't want to joke about his daughter's safety. After getting through the phone call, he followed Hattori Heiji's excuse and deliberately told Maori Ran in a nonchalant tone.
During this period, Mouri Kogoro also handed the mobile phone to Hattori Heiji, and asked Hattori Heiji to chat with Toyama and Ye. After the two girls agreed to return to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine immediately, they hung up the phone worriedly.
"Okay, uncle," Hattori Heiji handed the phone back to Mori Kogoro, "They said they had found out the name of the painter and would go back to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine to help me hang the Ema. I also asked Kazuha to hang them The personal information of the painter that I found was sent to me because I was a little curious about that painter..."
Conan was relieved and found that Chi Feichi, who was sitting by the car window next to him, had not participated in the discussion. He lowered his eyes and looked at the notepad and looked at the notepad curiously. I’ve been writing and drawing, and now I keep looking at my notepad to get distracted, what on earth are you doing?”
Chi Feichi put the notepad on his lap so that Conan could read the contents clearly without pulling his arm. Seeing that Mouri Kogoro and others were also with him, he explained, "I was trying to decipher the code on the letter. Just now It’s recalling Dozen’s poems about red maples.”
Hattori Heiji excitedly leaned forward to look at the notepad, "Then have you unlocked it? That secret code!"
Chi Feichi nodded calmly, "Untied."
Hattori Heiji looked at Chi Feichi's face, and his excited expression became a little stiff.
At this time, he should be happy and indeed a little surprised, but...
Why can Brother Fei Chi figure out the code so quickly? He had seen the code the day before yesterday and still had no clue. It would have been too fast if Brother Chi had figured out the code so quickly!
Moreover, Brother Fei Chi didn't seem to be very happy, which made him feel a little unhappy. It was like a toy that brought him countless happiness went to someone else's place, and they put it aside after just one look. He would replace his beloved The toy feels aggrieved!
Conan looked at the change in Hattori Heiji's expression and laughed inwardly.
Hattori usually investigates cases in Kansai, but the pressure is too low, so he doesn't suffer the blows from Chi Feichi like he did in Tokyo.
If Hattori had suffered as many blows as he did, he probably wouldn't be showing such an expression now.
Wasn't it Chi Feichi who figured out the secret code by dividing three times, five and two? Isn't this a normal thing? He didn't find it strange at all.
Hattori Heiji came back to his senses, like an innocent young man who had been deceived by an evil person. He pointed at Conan with grief and anger and said, "Brother Chi, I remember Conan said that you said that you are not very good at deciphering codes!"
"That's right," Chi Feichi emphasized again calmly, "I'm not very good at deciphering secret codes, so I don't understand why you haven't deciphered the secret code when you saw it the day before yesterday..."
Conan gasped and looked up at Hattori Heiji's expression.
The meaning of this kind of statement is clearly, 'I'm just not good at deciphering codes, so you're not as good as me, and I don't understand why you're so bad at it.'
For Hattori, a famous Kansai high school detective who has solved thousands of mysteries and solved thousands of cases, this kind of statement is really...
Well, Brother Chi is really gentle to him.
Probably because he was still a child, Brother Chi would never hit him like this. He would also use excuses like 'because you don't understand this' and 'because you haven't done this' to coax him.
"I..." Hattori Heiji's mouth twitched again and again. He took a deep breath to try to stabilize his emotions. He looked at Chi Feichi and asked, "Do you mean that this code is actually very simple?"
Chi Feichi nodded.
If he hadn't discovered that the code was actually very simple, he wouldn't have wondered why Hattori Heiji hadn't solved the code yet...
Hattori Heiji:"……"
Brother Fei Chi is so direct. Smile.JPG.
Chi Fei noticed that Hattori Heiji's facial muscles kept twitching. He was worried that Hattori Heiji's excessive emotional turmoil would lead to physical problems. He used a pen to draw circles on the code numbers copied on the notepad, and used puzzle solving to stimulate Hattori Heiji's emotions. Attention, "On that letter, the numbers in each row from top to bottom are '5-0', '7-1+2', '5-3', '7-0', '7-0', '5- 1+2'…”
Place the tip of the ballpoint pen on the numbers and circle the first number in each row of numbers.
5, 7, 5, 7, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 7...
Hattori Heiji looked at the first circled number, was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise, "57577...c-could this be..."
In the front seat, Koshimizu Nanatsuki also turned around and looked at the notepad Chi Feichi put on his lap, and said seriously, "It's the kana number for each line of the waka."
"But isn't '575' the kana number of Hiku?" Mouri Kogoro asked in memory.
"'575' is the kana number of Feiku, but '57577' is the kana number of waka. Waka generally has five lines, and the number of kana in each line is 5, 7, 5, 7, 7," Conan looked at Chi The pseudonym listed on Feichi's notepad, "This code has three sets of cyclic '57577', which should correspond to three Japanese songs..."
"Take the first number of each line as the serial number of the waka sentence. Only look at the numbers after the '-' number, and then correspond to the waka left by the murderer at the two scenes. In other words, the first line of the code 5-0', '5' is the serial number used to represent the first line of the first waka, but because it is followed by '0', we do not select any kana in this waka," Chi Feichi wrote on his notebook with a pen Draw a line and connect the kana you just solved with the secret code in each line one by one. "The second line of the secret code is '7-1+2'. '7' is the serial number that represents the second line of the first waka. Only look at the content after the '-' sign, that is, only look at '1+2'. I have tried various combinations. '1+2' should refer to the first kana and the second kana in this waka. In this way, by substituting the two waka left by the murderer at the scene, another waka can be formed..."
Conan decoded each line of code and made sure that the pseudonym written by Chi Feichi was correct. He softly connected the pseudonyms written by Chi Feichi and read out, "The sea, the heart without thoughts."
"It's a waka for Michizane," Hattori Heiji thought seriously, "The content of the whole waka is, 'The sea, the mind without thoughts, the journey to nothing, heading to the place of red maples, such as the will of God', but currently we only I know the two waka left by the murderer, so the last group of '57577' in the code does not have a corresponding kana, so I can only decipher the sentence 'the sea, the heart of no thought', but this is enough, among all waka , only Michizane’s waka has such a line.”
"And the third victim has been discovered. If there is still a waka left at the scene of the third crime, then as long as we pick out some pseudonyms from each line of the waka at the scene of the third crime, we should be able to gather them. "The journey to nothingness, to the place where red maples are, such as the will of God," Yuesui Nanatsuki looked at Chi Feichi and recalled, "No wonder you were thinking about the poems related to red maples written by Daozhen just now. , I remember Daozhen wrote a similar song..."
"I didn't bring any money or silk, and I was traveling in a hurry. The mountains were covered with maples, and I had the right to offer to the gods... This was also Daozhen's work selected for "One Hundred Poems of Ogura"." Chi Feichi wrote this poem next to it. According to the The last group of 57577 in the code circled the corresponding kana in the code, "Follow the prompts of the code, pick out the second, third, and fourth kana in the first sentence of this waka, and the kana in the second sentence. Seven kana, the first, second, third, and fourth kana in the third sentence... can finally form a "journey to nothing, to the red maple place, such as the will of God."
The taxi has stopped outside the art museum.
Hattori Heiji looked up at the police car outside the car and said with a serious expression, "In other words, if a third Japanese song was left at the scene of the crime, and the Japanese song was 'I didn't bring any money or silk, the hurried journey was full of maples,' The song "Quan Ke Xian God" can prove that Brother Fei Chi's idea of solving the puzzle is correct."
Others believed in their hearts that the code deciphered by Chi Feichi was correct.
Because the waka left at the scene of the first two crimes, after corresponding with the code, can be solved to "the sea, the heart of no thought". This is the first half of the waka written by Michizane, so it cannot be a coincidence.
However, they haven't seen the third song yet. Once they see the third song, it won't be too late to confirm the answer to the code.
The taxi driver listened to a group of people chatting all the way, and then saw three police cars parked outside the art museum. He wanted to ask what happened, but he was worried that his question would offend the guests, so he suppressed his curiosity. go back.
A group of people paid and got out of the car and entered the art gallery.
There are many Buddhist paintings hanging in the art gallery, and most of the exhibits are Buddhist statues, sculptures and scriptures. It is an art gallery with a Buddhist theme.
At this moment, there were police officers searching for clues around the museum. Ayanokouji Fumimaro, Otaki Goro and two police officers were standing next to a corpse.
The deceased was a man in his sixties. He had no hair on his head and a long gray beard on his chin. He fell on his back on the ground. He was wearing pajamas and was wrapped around a disconnected wire. There was a large puddle under his body. There were water stains, the muscles of his body were tense due to the electric shock during his life, and his hands were curled up on his chest.
Hattori Heiji walked quickly to Otaki Goro, looked past Otaki Goro, and looked at the body on the ground, "Officer Otaki, what is going on?"
