Conan used the excuse of playing a word game to ask the teacher to help him with the text of the note.

Then he used scissors to cut out an identical note.

Yuan Tai was puzzled and asked: "Conan, what are you doing?"

"Crack the code." Conan took out several pens of different thicknesses.

Mitsuhiko asked, "Is this note a code?"

Most of the characters on the note are not Japanese kana, but more like part of Chinese characters.

Conan explained: "To be precise, this is the code of the code stick."

"Sukiyaki sauce?" Yuantai misheard.

Conan looked at Genta speechlessly. This kid always thinks about food when doing anything.

"A code stick is a tool that allows the order of letters in a message to be changed and was used by the Spartans 2500 years ago as a code.

Prepare a long piece of paper and wrap it around a wooden stick. Then write the message you want to convey on it. Finally, take the paper off and the order of the letters on it will change.

The recipient of the code would need to use a stick of the same size to decipher the message on the note."

Conan was wrapping the note around the pen while doing some scientific research.

Yuan Tai took a closer look and asked: "What are these written on?"

"Hmm..." Mitsuhiko said, "The second character is 'Jiang'. I don't know the others!"

"Maybe the stick is the wrong thickness."

Conan tried several other pens of various sizes from other people, but still couldn't get the correct information.

Yuan Tai questioned: "Conan, are you wrong?"

Mitsuhiko asked, "Isn't there a '.!' symbol on the note?"

"That's what comma, period, and exclamation point mean."

Conan stared at the note in his hand.

The characters above are basically arranged in a left-right structure, which is very similar to the radicals and components of Chinese characters.

That's why he thought of the code stick as a form of secret code.

But he doesn't understand Chinese very well, but he knows Japanese kanji.

He remembered that Kitagawa Taki could speak Chinese, but he still believed that he could decipher the code.

"Dingling bell~"

The break was over, but Conan had no intention of listening to the class.

He always felt that something was missing.

……

Ayumi looked at Conan, who was frowning, and said worriedly: "Conan, you've been staring at this all afternoon. Are you possessed?"

Conan twitched his lips, "Ayumi... where did you learn the word 'possessed'?"

"Hey, I saw it on TV!"

Ayumi replied as she packed her bag.

"Conan, stop looking and pack your bag!" Genta slapped Conan on the back.

"Yes, yes." Conan packed up absentmindedly.

At this time, Wakasa Rumi walked into the classroom: "Children, let's go, I'll take you there!"

……

In the car.

Wakasa Rumi asked the three children, "Mr. Kitagawa, where does he live?"

Ayumi spoke first: "Yika-cho 2-chome."

Ayumi often visits Haibara Ai, so she knows the new address of Kitagawa Taki's house.

Conan raised his head in thought. His home was also in Beika-cho 2-chome. When did Kitagawa Taki move there?

In Conan's thoughts, the car soon arrived at Kitagawa's house.

Looking at the villa in front of him, Conan deeply doubted whether Kitagawa Taki could really afford it?

Even if he charges a high fee, it would be difficult to collect hundreds of millions of yen in a limited time, right?

Is it rented?

After Wakasa Rumi rang the doorbell, the door opened soon.

The one who opened the door was Kitagawa Taki.

"It's you!" Kitagawa Taki saw the three little ones, Conan, and a strange woman.

"Brother Beichuan!" The three little ones greeted in unison.

"Hello, Kitagawa-san! I'm their vice-homeroom teacher, Wakasa Rumi. Sorry to bother you with my visit!"

Wakasa Rumi bowed deeply.

"Hello, Mr. Wakasa!"

Kitagawa Taki took a look at Wakasa Rumi, who was wearing a green dress, gray tights, and black high heels.

But what caught his attention was not her attire, but the evil aura she exuded.

If it was someone else, then it would be fine.

But the situation is different if Wakasa Rumi is Conan's teacher.

A teacher who has killed many people is still okay.

Kitagawa Taki invited several people into the house.

Ayumi looked around and asked, "Brother Beichuan, why is Xiao Ai not here?"

"Xiao Ai is out."

Ai Haibara is actually in the underground laboratory.

Kitagawa Taki brought a bottle of drink to each of the three children and Conan, and then asked Wakasa Rumi: "Wakasa teacher, what would you like to drink?"

"No, no need!" Wakasa Rumi waved her hands quickly.

Kitagawa Taki poured a glass of water for Wakasa Rumi.

"Thank you!" Wakasa Rumi quickly took the cup with both hands.

If it weren't for the evil aura around her, Kitagawa Taki would have thought she was just an ordinary elementary school teacher.

"Brother Beichuan, did you just buy this place recently?"

Conan just observed the decoration of the house and it didn't look cheap.

"Yes!" Kitagawa Taki said with a smile.

Conan was looking around just now, and he saw it.

"That must have cost a lot of money, right?" Conan asked tentatively.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Kitagawa Taki knew that Conan was probably suspicious about where he got so much money, but he was not afraid of Conan checking his money.

He likes to see Conan looking at him as if he is unhappy with him, but he can't do anything about it and still has to call him brother.

"Conan, why are you asking these questions? Show that note to Brother Kitagawa!" Ayumi urged.

Ayumi can be considered a small wealthy woman.

Kitagawa Taki asked curiously, "What note?"

Ayumi explained everything to Kitagawa Taki in detail.

Conan handed the note to Kitagawa Taki.

Kitagawa Taki took it and took a look, then explained, "Ayumi, this isn't a seal or anything."

"Eh? Isn't it?!" Ayumi was a little disappointed.

Mitsuhiko asked: "Brother Beichuan, Conan said this is the code of the password stick, what do you think it is?"

Kitagawa Taki spread out the note and looked at it carefully. The words on it were neither Chinese characters nor Japanese kana.

However, the right half is basically "moon, fire, wood, metal, earth, sun", and there is also a "ミ", which should be the remaining "water".

"Monday, Tuesday...Sunday" refer to Monday to Sunday respectively.

Beichuan Taki pointed at the note and said, "To the right of the words above are the moon, Mars... and sun."

Conan's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this. He realized that he had been prejudiced and ignored a key clue.

"Ayumi, where's the class schedule you found in the old warehouse?"

"It's still with me."

Ayumi took out the tattered schedule.

Conan looked at the schedule carefully and now he understood.

"You don't have so many classes in a day, right?" Kitagawa Taki counted and found that there were seven classes in a day.

Mitsuhiko nodded and said, "Yes, even senior students don't have seven classes!"

"Brother Beichuan, have you figured out the code?" Conan said with a smile on his face.

Kitagawa Taki saw Conan's expression. This kid Conan still wants to provoke him?
