Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 122 116. Conan: Everyone look at me!
"I understand now!" Maori Kogoro shouted excitedly, and then said to everyone:

"Don't you understand? Waves refer to the ocean, and when we mention the ocean, we think of the wilderness."

[Huh?] With just two sentences, Maori Kogoro made Hayashi Ryoma fall into deep confusion.

No, why do we think of wilderness when we mention the ocean? Shouldn’t normal people think of blue sky, white clouds, beaches and bikinis when they mention the ocean?

Who would think of the wilderness?!
Ignoring everyone's doubts, Maori Kogoro continued, "Star means star, and it refers to the idol star who will be holding a concert at the nearby Beika Public Hall starting tomorrow, Ms. Okino Yoko!"

【? ? ? 】

Maori Kogoro became more and more excited as he spoke, and he even clenched a fist and placed it on his chest: "Also, Ms. Yoko's last song has been confirmed to be "Moon Girl".

This is a hint of "When the moon separates the two"! So Kaito Kid must have appeared near the Beika Public Hall at 9pm when the concert ended and committed the theft! "

"How about it, Mr. Okami, are you convinced by my reasoning?"

Kogoro Mouri crossed his arms smugly and looked at Okami Zhushan with disdain - this gourmet detective is no good at all!
Well, Lin Longma didn’t know whether Dashang Zhushan was convinced or not, but he could see that Dashang Zhushan was actually quite helpless at the moment.

What kind of reasoning is this?

Why can a theft case be linked to Okino Yoko? And she appeared near the Beika Public Hall at 9pm after the concert.
What’s going on? Does Kaito Kid have to go to the Beika Public Hall to watch a concert before committing a crime?

Isn't this thief a bit too weird?

No one would believe such outrageous reasoning.
"So that's it!" Just when Lin Ryoma was speechless, the excited voice of Chaki, the management officer of the Metropolitan Police Department's Second Investigation Division, rang in everyone's ears.

At this moment, Manager Chaki seemed to have been enlightened and was overjoyed after hearing Kogoro Mori's reasoning.

"Everyone, have you heard Mr. Maori's reasoning? Be on guard according to Mr. Maori's reasoning!

This time we must bring the damned Kaito Kidd to justice!"

[Fuck, he actually believed it!] Conan's pupils trembled. He couldn't believe that there would be people who actually believed Maori Kogoro's outrageous reasoning.

Compared to Conan who was so shocked that he was speechless, Hayashi Ryoma was only slightly shocked and then reacted immediately.

He and Vermouth looked at each other, and each could see what they meant from the other's eyes.

With managers like this in the Metropolitan Police Department, this island country’s police force will be doomed sooner or later!
The island nation's political arena or workplace pays attention to one's origin, background, and qualifications, and ultimately what matters is ability.

It is conceivable that one must have very capable people to climb over the three mountains ahead.
What people emphasize is that if you do not make mistakes, you will achieve success. What does it mean to do not make mistakes?

Like this time when Kaito Kid targeted the Suzuki family's heirloom, the incident was handled properly and Kaito Kid was not allowed to succeed, which is flawless.

If you can successfully arrest Kaito Kidd, it will be a great achievement.

So the question is, can Administrator Chaki really...not to mention arresting Kaito Kidd, can he really protect the Dark Star?
Obviously that's not possible.

Looking at the "duel" between Kaito Kidd and Investigation Section 2, it basically ends with Kaito Kidd's victory.

Although the jewels stolen by Kaito Kidd will eventually return to the owner, it is Kaito Kidd who returns them, not the Investigation Section 2 who successfully protects them. For Officer Chamu, the theft of the jewels is a crime.

Now, there are two famous detectives on the scene, and one of them has made a deduction. No matter how outrageous this deduction is, it is still a deduction made by a famous detective.

As long as Manager Chamu can show that he deployed the defenses based on the advice of professionals, he cannot be held responsible even if the Black Star is lost.

He is just a "puppet" who obeys orders! Isn't it a tradition for the Metropolitan Police Department to listen to detectives at the scene?

What does the loss of the Black Star have to do with Officer Chamu? The police force cannot hold Maori Kogoro responsible, nor can they hold Officer Chamu responsible.

Isn't this mistake gone now?
According to the unspoken rules of the island nation's workplace, not making any mistakes is a merit!
After all, there are only a few people who react as quickly as Hayashi Ryoma and Vermouth. Under Hayashi Ryoma's observation, he found that President Suzuki and his wife should also be aware of Administrator Chaki's thoughts.

But they said nothing.

As for others.
Okami Zhushan looked at Maori Kogoro, then at the tea tree manager, then looked at Maori Kogoro again, and then looked at the tea tree manager again.

His expressions are amazing!

At this moment, Da Shang Zhu Shan suddenly felt a little desperate - can he really handle this incident and improve the public security in Tokyo by working with this group of insects?

No wonder Tokyo has become more and more chaotic recently, it turns out there is a reason for it!
Da Shang Zhushan originally wanted to remain silent, but the detective's self-esteem did not allow him to turn a blind eye to such a shitty thing.

"Now that Detective Maori has finished explaining his theory, why not listen to my guess as well?"

Da Shang Zhu Shan didn't even look at the two people, but just said to Lin Longma and President Suzuki:

“April fool refers to April Fools’ Day, of course;

I think the phrase "the moon separates the two" refers to the time when the moon's orbit is between the satellite and the sun, causing a lunar eclipse.

"Ah?" There was clear stupidity in Kogoro Maori's eyes at this moment. What about the moon's orbit and artificial satellite?

And what exactly is a lunar eclipse?
Okami Zhushan continued to ignore Maori Kogoro: "The abbreviation of Black Star is BS, so I think Kidd will appear between 0:4 and : in the morning when the BS satellite broadcast is interrupted!"

Okami Zhushan said a lot of obscure professional terms that sound powerful but not to mention whether his reasoning is correct or not, but it sounds more reliable than Mori Kogoro's!
Lin Longma understood what Dashang Zhushan meant, but even though he understood it he still felt a headache.

Is the preview letter of Kaito Kid so complicated?
Unlike Lin Longma who was having a headache, Okami Zhushan's reasoning at this moment flashed through Conan's mind like a flash of lightning!

A flash of lightning flashed across the dark sea, and Conan suddenly had a burst of inspiration! He understood, he understood, he knew all the contents of Kidd's notice!

At this moment, inspiration surged like a wave, and Conan completely forgot his identity. Subconsciously, he ignored his own reasoning Jinchūriki Maori Kogoro, and perhaps Maori Kogoro's reasoning just now also made Conan a little embarrassed.

So Conan chose to come out and reason on his own!
"I know what the remaining code in the notice letter means!"
