Chapter 1312 1320 [Pick me up. Pick me up quickly! ]
Vodka was silent for a little while, and Gin heard the clue and said coldly: "Continue."
Vodka could only bite the bullet and say, "Well, it's like this. Although the 'treasure' is in his house, that treasure is not the 'Senari Hyotan' left by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but a small jar of gold coins left by Kajisuke."
"Kajisuke?" Gin initially thought that this was another peripheral member who had hidden the results.
But considering what happened before and after, he quickly realized it and frowned: "Is it the legendary thief from the Edo period?"
"Kajisuke" is a celebrity, famous for his successful theft from the treasury of Osaka Castle.
In his time, Osaka Castle was still the base used by the Tokugawa shogunate to control the west. Tributes collected from all over the west and the profits from Nagasaki trade were piled here. There were several vaults in the city to store money.
The vault is tightly guarded, with a heavy door, windows and vents sealed with iron mesh, and the floor sealed with stones. The gaps between the stones are firmly poured, eliminating the risk of tunnels being dug.
But even so, Kajisuke, who was on duty in Osaka Castle at the time, still used his identity as an insider and his superb door-breaking skills to steal 4,000 taels of gold from inside.
Vodka's voice soon sounded from the phone again:
"The Dragon and Tiger Scroll that appeared in the two charred corpse cases just now, also known as the 'treasure map', seems to have been left by Kajisuke. When later generations saw the Thousand Hyotan recorded on the 'Dragon Scroll', they easily thought that the 'Tiger Scroll' recorded the burial place of the treasure. But in fact, the Tiger Scroll only had one nonsense sentence written on it: 'The things recorded in the Dragon Scroll are indeed one thousand - Kajisuke'."
…
As we all know, whether there are one thousand or nine hundred and ninety-nine golden gourds on the Qiancheng gourd basket is not the point at all. What is important is its location.
But Kajisuke obviously didn't intend to tell it to anyone who had seen the scroll, he just wanted to show it to subsequent treasure hunters.
A crack appeared on Gin's phone silently: "..."
Next to him, the hungry cat's eyes lit up, and at an angle where Gin couldn't see, it quietly stretched out its claws towards him.
…
As Gin slowly accepted the cruel fact that "a thousand golden gourds from the Azuchi-Momoyama period turned into a small jar of gold coins in the Edo period."
The main river on the other side.
On a small, pitch-black boat, someone was holding a telescope, silently looking around and carefully observing every remote corner.
Tomorrow, there will be a lively event in Osaka Castle Park - the opening of the Suzuki Museum of Art.
At the same time, they received a warning letter from "Kaito Kid".
According to the statistics of the Metropolitan Police Department, Kidd has committed 134 crimes, 15 of which were committed abroad, covering 12 countries, stealing a total of 152 treasures, with a total theft amount of 38.725 billion yen. He is a thief that the police are afraid of.
And the person on the boat at this time was another terrible thief.
——The mysterious internationally renowned wanted criminal, Shi Kaobing.
Famous thieves usually have their own preferences.
For example, Kidd is particularly keen on stealing gems.
As for Shi Kaobing, he was specifically targeting the secret treasure of the Romanov dynasty - the Romanov dynasty was the last dynasty of Tsarist Russia. Before its demise, there was a legendary evil monk named "Rasputin". He was deeply trusted by the Tsar and his wife and had great power in the government.
"Skobing" is the descendant of Rasputin. She madly worships this legendary ancestor and firmly believes that the secret treasures left by the Romanov dynasty should all belong to Rasputin.
Of course, since Rasputin was dead, the treasure should be collected by her, his descendant.
It was also to commemorate Rasputin who was assassinated and lost his right eye. Every time Skovby killed someone, he would shoot the victim in the right eye.
…
The "Egg of Memories" which will be exhibited at the Suzuki Museum of Art tomorrow has unfortunately attracted these two thieves at the same time.
The "Egg of Memory" is also called the "Emperor's Easter Egg". It was a treasure given by the Russian emperor to the empress during Easter, from 1885 to 1916, with a total of 50 eggs.
This time, the one that the Suzuki family accidentally found in the warehouse and planned to send for exhibition was the 51st one.
…
Thinking of this, Shi Kaobing glanced down at his cell phone.
In the cold light of the screen, Kidd's notice was spread out:
[From the lion at dusk to the girl at dawn
When the clock without a second hand reaches the 12th word
I will come from the shining tower and collect the egg of memory.]
With a quick glance, Scoobing sneered silently: Kidd's puzzles are always confusing and difficult to solve, and there is often more than one way to understand them, but the only right of interpretation lies in Kidd's hands.
So she was too lazy to solve the puzzle, and there was no need to do so - as an international thief, she knew which way the people would leave after they succeeded.
It just so happens that she is not very good at this kind of delicate theft. So Scoobing decided that after Kidd stole the "Egg of Memories", she would defeat the "Magician of the Moonlight" and pick up the treasure he dropped. By then, the police would be wanted by Kidd, and Scoobing could leave calmly.
and……
Scoobing thought of the legends about Kidd, and his light grey eyes were filled with disdain and interest: it would be more fun to snipe a famous thief. It was a pity that Kidd didn't seem to have any other treasures about the Romanov dynasty, otherwise he would have had an extra reward.
…
As Scoob was thinking, he raised the telescope in his hand and looked around, speculating on Kidd's possible escape route and looking for the most suitable sniper spot on that route.
As she was watching carefully, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She lowered her head sharply and looked over warily.
I saw a figure appear in the dark water beside the boat without knowing when.
It seemed to be a young man, most of his body was submerged in the water, only a small part of him was above the water. He closed his eyes and drifted slowly to a place that he could reach with an oar.
Shi Kaobing: “……?”
...The person whose body was dumped?
Is Osaka so unsafe?
...No, if you look closely, this person doesn't look like a dead person. His chest seems to be slightly moving. Rather than dumping a body, it looks more like an attempted murder.
If another boatman was here, he might have rescued the person and called the police or an ambulance at the same time.
But Shi Kaobing didn't have such an idea: it didn't matter if he was still alive, he would die if he soaked for a while longer.
She didn't pay much attention to it, and carefully moved to a place where she would not be seen by people in the water, and continued to observe.
…
After two minutes, Scott finally found a good sniping position and withdrew his sights.
The next moment, her hand holding the telescope suddenly froze.
——In the river, it’s still the same person, the same posture, and the same distance.
The unfortunate guy who was thrown into the water by someone floated quietly past her eyes again.
