Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

"call out--!"

In the middle of the night on the street, Hattori drove a motorcycle with Kazuha and was about to return to Osaka after leaving Sannoji Temple. Suddenly, an arrow shot from behind, passing by the two of them dangerously and knocking out the rearview mirror. In horror, a guy wearing a bow and arrow chased him up from behind the car.

"It's that guy again!"

Hattori's expression changed, and he turned around an intersection and chased after him: "Kazuba, hurry up!"

Two locomotives passed the construction site one after the other like speeding, and finally stopped outside the park forest.

Hattori glanced at the motorcycle abandoned by the murderer, then turned his gaze to the woods ahead, and hurriedly took off his helmet to follow after explaining to Kazuba.

"You stay here, you know?"

"Pingji!"

The forest in the park is quiet, and the stone-paved creek reflects waves under the moonlight. A tram rumbles past nearby. When Hattori rushed over, he saw the masked man who attacked him waiting leisurely on the other side of the man-made creek, holding a Holding two wooden knives, he immediately threw one over when he saw him.

"Hmph, do you want to compete with me? No problem!"

Hattori chuckled and picked up the wooden knife. He was not afraid of swordsmanship, but he couldn't help frowning when he saw the posture of the masked man.

The whole body is full of flaws...

"Drink!"

Hattori tightened his grip on the wooden knife, stepped across the water and launched an attack intently.

"boom!"

...

At Sanneng Temple, Uncle Mori had a lot of thoughts about the murder of the tea house, but when he thought that the Buddha statue would be consecrated the day after tomorrow, he immediately became discouraged and sighed sadly behind Xiaolan's back.

"If this continues, it will definitely be too late..."

"Who said there's no hurry?"

After Xiao Ai went to bed and rested, Gao Cheng and Conan still stayed in the meditation room to help the uncle study the treasure map.

Uncle, this guy just deserves it. Even Conan and Hattori couldn't solve the puzzle for a while, and this guy is still in the mood to run to the tea house.

After wandering around for a long time, this meeting is like a dead dog again. If it weren't for the treasure map, it might be related to the Genji Hotaru case, so Gao Chengcheng didn't bother to worry about it here.

"It's bad!" Sonoko hurried over in his pajamas, out of breath, "Fu, Hattori has been attacked!"

"what?"

"He is injured now and was sent to Meixiaolu Hospital by He Ye!"

At Umekoji Hospital, when Gao Cheng and Conan rushed to the hospital with Xiaolan, Hattori was still unconscious. Officer Ayanokoji and Officer Otaki who received the news came with him.

The injury was not serious but not minor, mainly because the sharp blade wound on the shoulder bled a lot. As for the murder weapon, the dagger, because it is very likely to be the murder weapon that killed Sakura Masa, has been taken away by the police for testing...

Gao Cheng stood aside silently, looking at Hattori who was unconscious on the hospital bed, his expression darkened.

The murderer's purpose does not seem to be as simple as Hattori thought.

He was negligent, and he didn't expect that the opponent's swordsmanship was not even a match for Hattori...

It was already noon the next day when Hattori woke up again, but this guy didn't learn a lesson at all, so he sneaked out of the hospital when he found a chance.

"You really don't need to stay in the hospital to recuperate?" Conan and Gao Cheng followed Hattori.

"I'm fine."

Hattori got on the Kyoto tram and put on a hat to cover the bandage on his head without admitting defeat.

"I haven't asked yet," Gao Cheng asked curiously, "Even if you were attacked, why did you act like this?"

"What can I do, that guy is really weird," Hattori said with his arms crossed, "It seems that he deliberately led me into the woods to fight with me with a wooden knife at the beginning... I have never seen his swordsmanship like that before, He also seems to have iron bars in his wristbands to serve as a shield, and when He Ye pretended to bring the police over to chase that guy away, he actually left the dagger at the scene..."

"A sword technique you've never seen before?" Gao Cheng was taken aback.

"It's not just that." Hattori took out a cloth bag, "When I was duel with him, that guy actually wanted to pick up the cloth bag I dropped. The more I thought about it, the more I felt confused..."

"Is there anything special about this?"

"Oh, there is a crystal bead inside," Hattori held the cloth bag carefully, "This bead belonged to my first love when I was young, because I only saw her once, so I bring this with me every time I come to Kyoto..."

"You only saw someone once before you became your first love?" Gao Cheng took the cloth bag to check the crystal beads inside, "But why did that girl give you this?"

"No, actually at that time I sneaked into a temple to explore, and then I saw it through the lattice window once." Hattori's face showed a look of longing, "She was singing under the cherry blossom tree in the yard, but Soon I didn't know where I went, I ran over and only found this bead she dropped...Although it was like a dream, I think we will meet again one day..."

Gao Cheng held back his smile and patted Hattori: "You guys have a deep obsession, don't you really like that girl? What about Kazuya then?"

"I..." Hattori opened his mouth, and snatched back the cloth bag angrily, "Stop talking!"

"Although I don't want to hurt you," Gao Cheng said with a serious smile, "but does this crystal bead really belong to your first love?"

"what?"

"The temple you sneaked into back then should be Sanneng Temple, right?"

"How do you know?" Hattori looked at Gao Cheng like a ghost.

"What's so strange, don't you think this crystal bead looks familiar?" Gao Cheng put the stolen photo of the main Buddha statue of Sanneng Temple in front of Hattori and Conan, "Have you not found it yet? Buddha statues are often decorated with crystal beads. Make the pekoe in the middle of the forehead, this crystal bead is probably dropped under the cherry blossom tree when Genji Hotaru stole the Buddha statue eight years ago..."

"Why, why is this?" Hattori's eyes trembled, trying to refute, but his mind was quickly occupied by the same thought.

"Although there are still many doubts, it should be certain that there is something wrong with the Buddha statue stolen eight years ago," Gao Cheng continued, "It just so happened that your photo was published in a magazine recently, not only the photo of the crystal bead, but also the The photos of you when you were young... I think the other party should have looked for you back then, but they couldn't find it."

"That's why the other party attacked Hattori?" Conan stared at Gao Cheng strangely. "It's so strange. In the past, reasoning was left until the end. Why is it so early this time?"

Gao Cheng's face darkened: "What are you talking about? Hattori has been attacked twice, of course I have to find out the murderer soon... What should I do next? Any clues?"

"Of course, ask those people. Those guys are really suspicious."

At Sanneng Temple, Uncle Mori called Saijo Taihe and others with a sullen face, and the dancer Qiangaling also had her adoptive mother Sankura, Mizuo, and even Ayanokoji came here.

Xiao Ai looked at the crowd, stepped aside and called Gao Cheng: "Yes, there is a new clue... That uncle called everyone over..."

"Huh?" Gao Cheng was bewildered, "Did that uncle ignore the Buddha statue?"

"If you say that you can find the Buddha statue if you find the murderer," Xiao Ai glanced at the uncle and said flatly, "In short, come here quickly, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen."
