Chapter 1011: 7 sins, years of resentment
Yuya asked back, "Mio, do you know the seven deadly sins?"
Miyano Shiho thought for a moment and said, "Pride, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust?"
Yuya nodded and added, "In fact, there were originally eight of the Seven Deadly Sins, namely gluttony, lust, greed, wrath, laziness, depression, vanity, and pride."
"In the late sixth century, Pope Gregory I reduced the eight sins to seven, merging vanity with pride, melancholy with laziness, and adding envy to form the current seven deadly sins."
Miyano Shiho was a little confused: "What does this have to do with the meaning of the chessboard?"
Yuya explained, "There are eight pieces in total, right? But now the Rook and the Corner, the Gold and Silver are nailed together, making it six pieces, and with the addition of a Corner, it becomes seven pieces."
"Aren't the two completely consistent?"
Mitsuhiko asked curiously, "What crime does each chess piece represent?"
Ayumi also raised a question: "Aren't there two horns? Each of the seven deadly sins is different, right?"
"It's different, but," Youya shook his head, "The coin nailed to the flying car has the word bluff written on it, so that coin represents vanity."
"The other horn is placed abruptly far away from the other pieces. Judging from its position, it should be the newly joined Envy. Am I right, Celebrity?"
Hideyoshi Haneda was too lazy to argue about the title of Meijin. No matter how he explained that he was not a Meijin because he had not won the Meijin battle, Yuya and his companions as well as the masses all called him Taiko Meijin.
Hideyoshi Haneda naturally had the confidence to win the game, but this was a bit too high-profile.
So he wisely chose to avoid the topic: "Yes, the squares that the corner row can move to are fixed, and there is no way to appear in that position.
So it should have been moved to that position after it was upgraded to a dragon horse and the opponent's chess piece was captured, so it symbolizes the newly added jealousy. "
"I see," Miyano Shiho also understood, "Then the golden general with the word lazy man on it represents laziness, and the one nailed together with it is melancholy; and the one nailed together with the horn of vanity is arrogance, right?"
"That's right." Youya nodded.
The three little brats' eyes were rolling in circles. What arrogance and vanity were they talking about? They didn't understand anything at all!
Yuan Tai couldn't help but ask: "So where are we going?"
Yuya said, "Of course it's the pawn that's nailed down."
"But the corner line says bluff, which means it's unreliable, so the location represents the arrogant speedster."
"Pride is the English word for pride, and the only place with the word pride in its name around here is the Beihu Grand Hotel..."
Wait, come to think of it, it seems that Sera Masumi is staying in that hotel now?
"But, is Sister Yumi really there? Is there going to be another puzzle?" Ayumi asked worriedly.
"No, it won't happen." Haneda Hideyoshi clenched his fists. "We have solved three puzzles and won three rounds. If it is a celebrity match, then the fourth round will be the decisive match!"
Yuya interrupted, "Sister Yumi, everyone including the criminal is there, right? It seems that you already know who the criminal is."
Haneda Hideyoshi remained silent, seemingly unwilling to answer this question.
You didn't push him, he would know the answer soon anyway.
Soon, everyone arrived at the Beihu Grand Hotel.
As soon as I entered the door, I was recognized by the waiter and taken to a room.
The waiter knocked on the door, but no one answered.
Conan had a good angle and saw at a glance that there was a piece of tape stuck on the crack of the door. He pulled the door tentatively and found that it was correct.
"Are you asking us to go in by ourselves?" Youye raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the other party was very confident in himself and opened the door just like that.
He wasn't afraid that Haneda Hideyoshi would come with the police.
Oh, the other side has hostages, that’s okay.
When Hideyoshi Haneda saw that the door was not locked, he rushed in without thinking.
"Yumi, are you in there? Answer me now!"
Hideyoshi Haneda pushed two doors and finally saw Yumi Miyamoto who was tied to the sofa and unconscious.
Just as he was about to rush over, a man's voice rang out in the room: "Oh Duo, don't go any further, no one except Haneda Hideyoshi is allowed to enter, otherwise I will detonate the bomb on the sofa."
When Youye heard this, he quickly retracted his foot that was halfway in and stopped a few other people.
There was a sofa in the room and Yumi Miyamoto was lying on it.
Next to the sofa, there was a chessboard. A bearded man was kneeling in front of it, looking at everyone with a sneer.
He looked at the people behind the door and sneered, "I clearly warned you not to tell anyone else, but you brought people here anyway. But they don't look like police officers, so forget it."
Seeing this man, Haneda Hideyoshi showed no surprise and said in a deep voice: "It is you, Mr. Tanimori."
Tani Mori Shunji smiled coldly, gestured and said, "Come and sit down here, let's continue the game that was not completed ten years ago."
Yuya and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that today's case would involve the past ten years ago? This person really holds a grudge.
Ten years ago, Hideyoshi Haneda and Shunji Tanimori had a game.
That game was the key to whether Shunji Tanimori could advance.
If he could advance, he would get enough bonus to allow his seriously ill wife, who was hospitalized, to be transferred to a better hospital for treatment.
otherwise···
However, in that game, Hideyoshi Haneda's habit of fiddling with the chess pieces while thinking caused the distracted Shunji Tanimori to mistakenly think that he had made the next move.
Shunji Tanimori immediately used the ultimate move he had prepared for a long time, but he didn't expect that because of this misunderstanding, he made consecutive fouls and lost his qualification for the competition.
Hideyoshi Haneda took a few steps forward but did not sit down.
Tani Mori Shunji didn't care and started placing the pieces on the chessboard, muttering to himself.
"I think you may have forgotten that at that time I used 4% of my gold to prepare for the general..."
"Tongyu." Haneda Hideyoshi suddenly interrupted him.
Tani Mori Shunji was stunned and looked at Haneda Hideyoshi in surprise.
Haneda Hideyoshi said slowly: "I haven't forgotten that game... Then, please use my king to capture your Chengjin." (Chengjin is the upgraded chess piece infantry. When an upgradeable chess piece enters the three rows farthest from the main camp (i.e. the enemy camp) or moves within these three rows, captures pieces, or leaves these three rows, the player can choose whether to upgrade the chess piece (to X) - excerpted from Baidu Encyclopedia.)
Tani Mori Shunji raised his hand and made the move according to Haneda Hideyoshi's instructions, then smiled sinisterly, "I knew you would do this. In this case, I can only use this sure-win 4- flying move to show my power!"
"That's it, checkmate. I win!"
However, instead of being ecstatic, Tani Mori Shunji, who had become a successful general, burst into tears.
"Guizi, I finally made that move!"
Keiko was the wife of Shunji Tanimori, who died of illness ten years ago.
