Chapter 637 Mobius Strip Pattern
Chapter 637 Mobius Strip Pattern
Looking at the small note that appeared in his palm, Conan didn't know how to react for a moment.
But he might also know that these cases might be related to Bertrand, but... why?!
Conan took a few deep breaths and calmed down before opening the small piece of paper that was folded several times.
[Are you surprised or not? I advise you not to check that number anymore, otherwise I will get rid of all the people involved~]
The content is signed with a hand-drawn, super cute anthropomorphic cat making a "Yay" emoticon.
Conan held the note tightly and stared at its contents in silence.
How did he...know that he was looking up that number!?
A blue-haired baby looked at his finger and said: I was forced to put a little magic into your phone~
After putting the note away, Conan calmed down a bit alone, then went back to the house while thinking.
As soon as he returned, Mao Lilan hit him on the head, "Conan! Where did you go again!?"
Conan covered his head and smiled awkwardly: "I went to the toilet..."
"Really? Remember to tell me in advance next time." Mao Lilan blamed with some dissatisfaction.
"I'll definitely do that next time!" Conan rubbed his head, then looked behind her, "By the way, was anyone injured by the gunshot just now?"
"Yes, it's Mr. He Yu Xiangfu. He was shot in the abdomen and has been taken to the hospital by ambulance for emergency treatment."
Mao Lilan replied.
Conan fell silent again.
Since the organization has intervened in this case, there is no way to continue investigating. After all, the other party is unlikely to leave any clues for him to verify.
However...the deaths of the Shitara family members one after another 30 years ago should have been done by one of this family members.
But even if Conan wanted to check, he couldn't. After all, so much time had passed. Whether Maori Kogoro would cooperate with him was another matter...
Well, another unresolved case.
Several days had passed since this incident when Qianzhu and Liu Qingyao returned from their "trip".
Although Conan was really tempted by the tone of that number, he held back when he thought of the warning Bertrand left him.
Facing Conan's countless sighs, Qianzhu knew the situation but still asked him in a gentle voice: "Conan, why are you so depressed today? Have you encountered any difficult cases again?"
"You can say that, but some things just don't work for me. It's not a big deal."
Conan smiled slightly and waved his hand in reply.
"That means that a famous detective would also worry about these trivial matters. That's really rare." Haibara Ai made herself a cup of coffee with a faint smile on her face, and glanced at Conan sarcastically.
Conan: "..." Please don't talk as if the detective is not a human being.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he was too lazy to argue with Huiyuan Ai, so he turned his head to look at Qianzhu, "By the way, Qianzhu, have you had fun these days? Has anything interesting happened?"
"Yeah, it feels pretty good." Hearing this, Qianzhu replied with a chuckle, then thought for a moment and said, "As for interesting things... I don't think there are any, but if I really want to say something, it's probably because I've been with the famous detective Conan for too long. The night before I came back, a murder happened in the hotel where we stayed."
"Murder? What murder?"
When it comes to this kind of thing, Conan's interest obviously improves a lot.
Qianzhu drank a sip of tea and recalled, "I remember that the deceased was called Morita Mizuo. The cause of death seemed to be due to a treasure that was not evenly divided, so he was killed with a shotgun by his accomplices. The murderer's name was Hongo Junpei."
"I don't remember more details because there was a very good detective living in the hotel at the time, and he solved the case very quickly."
"But the murderer shot himself when he was caught by the detective. His last words left a deep impression on me."
Qianzhu said, putting down the teacup in his hand and taking a pen and a blank notebook from the side.
"He said: The origin of life, the end of death, the crimson fluid will be poured into my skull, and I will eventually be revived again."
He read the sentence aloud, wrote it down in his notebook, and drew a pattern under it.
The pattern is nine small snakes biting each other's tails in turn, and the shape connected together is a Möbius strip.
Handing the notebook to Conan, Chitake pointed to the Möbius strip formed by several small snakes and said, "Also, next to the deceased named Morita Mizuo, there is a pattern printed in blood. Although it is not very obvious, it can be seen that it is a Möbius strip composed of snakes. It probably looks like this."
Conan stared at the sentence and the pattern for a while, "I think I've seen this pattern before..."
"What?" Qianzhu picked up the teacup again and glanced at him with slight surprise.
"Isn't this the pattern on the letter we received a few days ago?"
Haibara Ai came over at some point and stood next to Conan with a cup of steaming coffee. She lowered her head slightly and glanced at the pattern on the notebook. After thinking for a moment, she continued, "And that sentence. I saw similar words inside that envelope."
"What!?"
Conan almost jumped up with excitement when he heard her words. He turned his head and looked at Dr. Agasa and shouted, "Dr. Agasa! Can you help me get the letter I received a few days ago?"
"Huh? Oh, good!"
Handing him the letter addressed to Kudo Shinichi, Dr. Agasa stood beside him with some curiosity, "Shinichi, have you discovered something new?"
Conan nodded, took out the letter and looked at it again. There was indeed an ordinary small Möbius strip drawn on the signature, but the patterns on the back of the letter, in the lower right corner of the envelope, and even on the wax seal were all Möbius strips made up of snakes.
"Why? Is this related to that case again?"
Haibara Ai was not curious about those cases, but she found it very interesting to see Conan distressed because of them.
"Yeah." Conan responded heavily, not noticing her intention to tease the little white mouse, and then said, "Habara, do you still remember the craniotomy case you encountered in Beika Park last time?"
"Remember, you mean to say that the murderer of that case is together with the guy who sent us the invitation letter?" After saying that, Huihara Ai took a sip of coffee and then moved to the chair and sat down.
