Chapter 745 If you are hungry, then eat a title
Miyano Shiho said thoughtfully: "The Book of Revelation is usually a warning about the future. In other words, this is his criminal plan?"
"Although I can't be sure yet, it's probably true."
Maori Kogoro crossed his arms and said disdainfully, "Never mind. I think this is probably some lunatic's prank."
Youye shook his head: "Even if it's just a prank, we can't just sit there and do nothing. What if someone really gets killed? Then wouldn't we be accomplices if we knew about it but didn't report it? And I promised that kid that I would help him."
"Anyway, let's tell the police about this and see if they can provide some useful information. Otherwise, even if we can decipher the code, it will be difficult for us to handle such a matter alone. After all, this is not Neon."
Several people came to Scotland Yard, which is the police station in London.
Youya went in with the note and soon came back with a serious expression.
"What's wrong? Why do you look so scary?" Miyano Shiho asked worriedly.
Youye sighed: "When I went in just now, I saw a lot of children and their parents holding the same notes and calling the police. The place was crowded..."
"They said a dark-skinned man with a hat and braids was handing out notes to them at different places, such as the roadside and the park."
"And they were told that someone was going to die in London."
"What?" Several people were surprised and couldn't help but look at each other.
If there was only one note it could be a prank, but how many kids would it take to fill up a police station? This note was probably a preview of a real crime.
Conan said in a deep voice, "Wait, Apollo just said that, and that person also told him that someone would die in front of him, right?"
Maori Kogoro also realized the seriousness of the matter: "Wait, if other children hear the same thing..."
Conan nodded heavily: "Yes, someone will be killed in front of every child, which means that a large number of people may be killed. This is more than just a crime..."
"Mass murder? In London?"
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
Maori Kogoro pinched his chin and analyzed: "In that case, the possibility of the murder happening in a crowded place is the highest."
"At this time, the most likely event should be the Wimbledon tennis tournament, right?"
"Yes!" Mao Lilan suddenly thought of something, "During the game, everyone will watch the game in person or on TV, so..."
"No," Yuya denied Mao Lilan's guess, "There are quite a few children wearing protective helmets used when riding bicycles. They should be watching the Tour de France. This game and the Wimbledon tennis tournament are broadcast live at the same time. There is no way to watch them at the same time."
Maori Kogoro pondered and said, "In this case, we have to consider places like the British Museum where crowds tend to gather."
Yuya suggested: "Anyway, before the agreed time in the evening, let's go to where the crowds gather and observe to see if there are any clues."
Miyano Shiho asked hesitantly: "But, with so many places, do we have to search for them one by one?"
Maori Kogoro's face immediately frowned, and he said in distress: "This is indeed not very realistic... There are so many places, and we are only a few people, how can we run over?"
"Of course not," Youya said immediately, "According to the children's eyewitness testimony, the person who gave them the notes was the same man, so the possibility of a gang committing the crime is relatively low. Of course, we cannot rule out that he was the one responsible for sending the advance notice."
Yuya thought for a while and suggested: "How about this, let Conan and I decipher the code, and Uncle Kogoro, you guys go around those places to see if there are any suspicious people, and you can also treat it as sightseeing."
"Besides, Uncle Kogoro is better at finding people."
Maori Kogoro heard this and immediately puffed out his chest proudly: "Of course, leave this matter to me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro!"
You also smiled, it's so easy to fool...
Several people acted separately.
Yuya and Conan first found a bookstore and bought a detailed map of London.
It's difficult to get around without a map when you are unfamiliar with the place.
"Well, let's take a look at this code."
The two found a bench and sat down. Yuya spread out the map and then placed the note on it.
"First, the first sentence... A rolling bell rises me. The alarm clock? No, considering this is London, maybe Big Ben? Well, let's make that a priority."
Conan nodded in agreement, although his first thought was the alarm clock.
"I'm a long nosed wizard in a castle... should it be a castle? No, when it comes to long noses, what is the first thing that comes to mind?" Yuya suddenly looked at Conan.
Conan was stunned: "Elephant? You mean... Elephant Castle?"
Yuya nodded slightly: "Maybe it has something to do with that place, so let's list it as an alternative answer."
"Then there are the next few sentences. There is no special meaning. What people care about are these dishes, boiled eggs, cucumbers and cakes. The interpretation of the code usually follows a trace, so it should also refer to a place, a restaurant or something like that? Conan, do you have any ideas?"
Conan pondered for a while and shook his head: "I think the same as you, I can't think of anything else for now."
“Okay, look at the following. It rings again for my hatred. This sentence… also refers to the sound of a bell, or maybe it refers to another bell?”
Conan nodded in agreement.
"The last line, "It tells me to finish everything piercing a white back ords," means "to finish everything, to pierce the white back with two swords." Does it refer to the weapon shop or something like that?
"Hmm..." Conan nodded after thinking for a moment, took away the note and looked at the map. "While we still have time, let's go to the castle-like building and take a look."
"Then let's go here." Youya pointed to the nearest castle marked on the map.
