Chapter 238 Another Egg



acting.

This is a required course for every detective (serious face).

From acting to tricking criminals and setting traps, to acting cute in daily life to hide it from his girlfriend.

These are the skills that detectives rely on to survive.

For Tang Ze, he needs to act more often in daily life to guide the case.

There are some things you clearly know, but you just have to act out the process in front of others.

Just like in the college entrance examination, even though you know the final answer to the math problem, you still have to write down all the steps, otherwise you will only get a pitiful score.

What Tang Ze is acting out at this moment is the process of discovering the secret contained in the small mirror.

As expected, Tang Ze's words attracted everyone's attention.

"What's wrong, Genichi? Did you discover something?" Seeing Tang Ze's actions, Ayako asked curiously.

"Nani, Nani? Does this thing have any secrets that I don't know?"

As someone who played with this egg as a toy when she was little, she thought she knew this egg well enough.

But even Tang Ze noticed something that she didn't know in a short while, which made Yuanzi curious about what secret he had discovered.

"Mr. Nishino, please turn off the lights first."

Secretary Nishino was a little confused when he heard this, but he still turned off the lights as Tang Ze said, and the room fell into darkness.

"Conan, turn on the light of your watch and point it at this lens." Tang Ze called Conan over.

At this point, Conan also understood the secret hidden in the lens, and was somewhat depressed to find that he had lost another game without realizing it.

The light passed through the lens and hit the wall, forming a black and white picture like a projector.

The projected scene looked like an ancient castle.

"What's going on? An image appeared in the mirror?" asked Siluofu Chinikov, the first-class clerk of the Russian Embassy, ​​in a somewhat awkward tone.

Obviously, the fighting nation was shocked and puzzled by the images presented by this delicate and small lens.

The art dealer Gan Jiangyi was also shocked. He looked at the scene in front of him and exclaimed, "This... This is a magic mirror."

Looking at the pattern formed by the small lens on the wall of the dim room, it aroused everyone's curiosity.

Especially after hearing Gan Jiangyi say the word "magic mirror", this curiosity grew even more.

"This is called a translucent mirror. It has undergone a very sophisticated and detailed process so that the mirror can produce images under light. It is a complex craft technology passed down from flower growers." Tang Ze explained.

Gan Jiang nodded in agreement upon hearing this and said, "That's right. During the period when Toyotomi Hideyoshi chose to exterminate Catholicism, those Catholics who had been hiding would use this magic mirror to reflect the cross on the wall and pray."

Compared to the others, Kosaka Natsumi was more shocked when she saw the image reflected on the wall. "Sawabe-san, this city in the image is..."

The old butler was also surprised and looked at the projected image with his mouth open. After hearing what Kosaka Natsumi said, he nodded repeatedly and confirmed: "Yes, it is Yokosuka Castle!"

"The castle in Yokosuka?" Ran heard the conversation and couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Is that the castle that often appears in advertisements?"

"Well, it was designed by my great-grandfather himself when he was alive, and it was managed by my great-grandmother after he passed away."

"In that case, the scene in the image is the castle of the Kosaka family." Sonoko said in surprise as she looked at the image.

"By the way, Xia Mei-san, the drawings of these two eggs were left by your great-grandfather, right?"

Maori Kogoro analyzed: "After the outbreak of the Russian Revolution, your great-grandfather and your great-grandmother made these two eggs together, and then they returned to Neon.

It is very likely that the gem from the second egg was sold to raise funds to build this castle."

Maori Kogoro shook the blueprint on the table and reasoned seriously, "The content reflected by the magic mirror on the egg in our hand is Yokosuka Castle.

If so, I wonder if it's a reference to another egg, possibly hidden within the castle."

Hearing this, Kosaka Natsumi revealed a look of sudden realization and quickly pulled out an ancient copper-yellow key from her closet. "In fact, besides these two broken blueprints, there is also an old key. Could it be that..."

"That's it!" Maori Kogoro stretched out his index finger, "This might be the key to where the second egg is hidden!"

"Well, Mori-san, Karasawa-san, I wonder if I could invite you to the castle after we return to Tokyo," Kosaka Natsumi invited.

"No problem, I'd be happy to!" Kogoro Mouri agreed immediately.

"That's an interesting invitation. It feels like a treasure hunt." Tang Ze smiled and nodded, "I agree."

Looking at the castle key in Natsumi Kosaka's hand, which was much larger than an ordinary key, the faces of those who were interested in the "Egg of Memories" immediately became attentive when they heard that Natsumi Kosaka planned to explore the castle.

"A dream egg studded with jewels?!" Siluofu Chinikov placed a hand on his chest and pleaded, "Please let me go with you!"

"Me too." Gan Jiang Yiye immediately echoed.

Hanchuan Long, standing by, was not to be outdone and said, "Please let me accompany you on the shoot. This will be invaluable footage!"

Faced with the three people's somewhat fanatical request, before Kosaka Natsumi could agree, Tang Ze stood up and looked at Kankawa Ryu and said bluntly: "The rest of you are fine, but you can't go."

"What do you mean?! If I remember correctly, we hadn't met before yesterday, right?"

Han Chuanlong stood up immediately after hearing this, and said with a stern expression: "Besides, why can't I go? Besides, it's not up to you to decide whether I can go or not."

"It's the first time we meet, but I really don't welcome you."

Tang Ze looked at the other party with an equally unfriendly tone, "After discovering yesterday that Shi Kaobing was Pu Siqinglan, to prevent any accidents, I specifically asked my colleagues to investigate all of you.

I unexpectedly discovered that you actually used the footage of a girl crying because her house was burned down as your photography material. A scum like you has no right to talk to me.

I will contact reporters to expose your ugly deeds to the media, and disappear from my sight once you get off the boat."

Tang Ze's words were spoken with great arrogance, and the content of his words shocked everyone. They did not expect that the other party was such a bad guy.

"Ah!! I remember now!"

At this moment, Secretary Nishino suddenly exclaimed: "What Mr. Tang Ze said is what I experienced three years ago!

At that time, I even had a fight with him because I tried to stop him!"
