Conan's First Love is a Profiler

Chapter 169 The location of the final puzzle
“Could it be that this liquid is…”

"You and that idiot, answer my next question together. If you don't answer correctly."

"Whatever the puzzle is, bring it on!"

Now that I have shouldered this responsibility, I will try my best to break the other party's conspiracy.

I swear by the Sakura Police Badge!
"You have a good understanding. Now let's start asking questions. There are ten coins in each of the five pockets over there. However, the coins in one of the bags are fake."

The real coin weighs ten grams each, while the fake coin weighs eleven grams.

"Use a scale to find the fake coins, but you can only use the scale once. The number written on the bag of fake coins is the code number that will stop that machine."

The timer on the side is set to five minutes, and this is the time limit.

Finally, the prisoner uttered the lengthy "time is money" again and hung up the phone.

锦袋上的数字, 分别是109、705、260、409、302。

On the corridor inside the Dongdu Art Museum, the Qinghai begonias were walking slowly, calling out "chirp".

I was thinking about the puzzle the prisoner had given me: there were five bags, but they could only be weighed once.
"That's it for now."

After saying this to a cleaning staff, Muro Rumi left.

"Sorry to bother you."

Qinghai Chuantang walked over and asked, "Have you seen any parrots around here?"

"Parrot?" The other party showed a puzzled expression.

"Yes."

The cleaning man shook his head.

At this time, Qinghai Chuantang noticed a garbage recycling bag nearby, which contained a flat-plate-like object with a fork-shaped tape on it.

Some curiously asked: "Excuse me, what is this?"

The man took a look and explained, "This one was broken, so I was asked to throw it away."

"That's it"

Now, there are three minutes left.

Inside the office, everyone found brocade bags and coins to simulate; on the tarmac, Takagi and Yakusho were thinking, but their thinking was restricted by the condition that they could only weigh it once.

"Officer Takagi."

A male voice came, sounding very immature.

"you are?"

"I'm sorry I can't answer this question. But I know the answer to the question raised by the other party."

In the office, everyone held their breath, waiting for his answer.

Someone wanted to take this opportunity to find out the identity of the person who invaded the dialogue system, but was stopped by Jingtian.

"First, open the bags. From bag number one, take out one. From bag number two, take out two. From bag number three, take out three, and so on."

In this way, fifteen pieces can be taken out from five bags.

If they were all the same weight, the total would be one hundred and fifty grams.

However, if bag number one contains coins weighing 11 grams, the total weight will be 151 grams.

If it is placed in bag number 2, the total weight will be 152 grams, and so on.
As soon as the words were spoken, the other party cut off contact.

After hearing this, Gao Mu suddenly felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

Once people are bound by habitual thinking, it becomes difficult to break out of this circle.

They limit themselves to the rule that a scale can only be used once; but they forget what to do if there is no scale?

Takagi picked up the brocade bag and prepared to do as the man had just said.

But at this moment, a sandstorm suddenly blew up, blinding me for a moment, and I subconsciously reached out to rub my eyes.

The brocade bag was not sealed to begin with, and because of his action, all the coins inside fell to the ground, making a crisp sound that was very pleasant to hear.

The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.

"Senior Takagi," Ye Jiusheng turned his head stiffly and looked at him: "What should we do now?"

Time was running out, with only five seconds left.

Both of them were wailing in their hearts: It's over!
When the countdown reached zero, the machine spewed out white gas.

"Hold your breath! Hold your breath!"

A few seconds later, Takagi and Yakusho got up from the ground and looked at each other, both of them were intact.

"I was shocked. It turned out to be just smoke." Ye Jiusheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He patted his own heart gently to comfort himself.

At this time, Takagi's cell phone rang again.

"What happened just now was just a warm-up. But if you fail again, Takagi, your failure will lead to the death of thousands of people. This is not something that can be underestimated."

"Let's go to Akihabara and buy twenty-four anime figures of Sakura Kinomoto."

Sakura Kinomoto is the protagonist of the manga "Cardcaptor Sakura" and its derivative works.

"So after the purchase, what do you plan to have me do?"

The other party did not answer him immediately, but laughed a few times and said mysteriously: "Then please look forward to it."

The deadline given this time is before 2 p.m.

At the end, the other party once again uttered the long-winded sentence "time is money".

"Let's go, Takagi-senpai."

Ye Jiusheng's expression was slightly agitated and excited. He grabbed the other's wrist and said impatiently: "Let's go to the holy land Akihabara!"

After the two left, the surrounding investigators came to the roof and finally found out how the criminal monitored Takagi - CCD monitor.

You can use a computer to transfer images via wireless LAN.

When the two of them finished buying figures in Akihabara, there were only ten minutes left.

They didn't understand what the criminal's intention was.

"Please take care of me. I'm from the Kuro Cafe."

A woman with long black hair dressed as a maid was distributing flyers to the people gathered in front of her.

Without exception, they were all men, and they were holding various equipment in their hands, clicking the shutter non-stop as if they were free.

Finally, the cell phone rang.

"Did you buy the anime model of Sakura Kinomoto?"

"I bought it. But why did you ask us to buy it?"

Chiba said: If you don’t want this good thing, you can actually give it to me.

"You don't seem to be happy at all? It's almost there, please take a dip in the wind of nerve gas."

As soon as the threatening words were spoken, the attitudes of the two men took a 180-degree turn.

Gao Mu smiled and said, "I'm sorry, we are actually so happy. Please give us the next instructions as soon as possible so that we can take action immediately."

The other party seemed to laugh.

"Then, let's do something interesting."

"Something interesting?"

"If everyone over there applauds you, I will forgive you."

Takagi glanced back secretly. Did she want him to wear a maid outfit as well?
He said awkwardly, "Well, we are criminal police, so we are not very good at telling interesting things."

"If you don't want to do it, forget it." The other party's mood seemed to become very low.

At this time, Megure Jusan's voice came from the headset: "Come on, Takagi, you can do it!"

"Takagi, I believe in you!" This was Sato's comfort and encouragement to him.

After hearing the familiar and lengthy "time is money" at the end, Takagi couldn't help but sigh. What should he do?
When he turned around, he was startled.

Before they knew it, the group of people were behind them.

Seeing the two people turning around and facing him, his mobile phone and SLR camera instantly made clicking sounds, recording the interesting scene.

At this time, Qinghai Chuantang ran outside after searching in vain in the art museum.

Fortunately, Conan was contacted in advance.

Using Rum's clues as bait, they successfully made the other party take the bait and become a member of the "Chiu Chiu Search Team".

Conan didn't know the proverb that Rum used every time he sent an email. He only knew that one of Rum's eyes was an artificial eye. This was the information provided to him by Haibara Ai.

Now, Qinghai Chuantang has provided new information and also claimed that the criminal in this nerve gas case has a catchphrase that is the same as Rum's.

Does this mean that he is one step closer to becoming the second-in-command of the organization?
After arriving at the security room near the parking lot, Qing Hai Chuantang looked at the guard inside and said cautiously: "That."

"Is there a problem?"

"Has a bird escaped around here? Its name is Chirp."

"Chirp," the guard thought for a moment, "this is a really good name for a parrot."

After he finished speaking, the guard raised his head and smiled at her, "If I find anything while on patrol, I'll contact you, okay?"

Qinghai Chuantang smiled and responded: "Thank you so much."

Poor Conan, because of his height, couldn't touch the window frame and fell into the blind spot.

In Akihabara, Takagi and Yokusho were on stage at this time, showing off their acrobatics.

Everyone in the audience looked at them expressionlessly.

If there were no rotten eggs in my hand.
The acrobatics performed by the two were so clumsy that it was embarrassing. After all, they just used some tricks and people could see the flaws at a glance.

It's not as exciting as what we see on TV or on stage.

"Takagi-senpai, what should we do now?"

The two turned their backs and began to discuss countermeasures in a low voice.

"It seems that the only thing left is to perform a short play."

When Qinghai Chuantang listened to their performance in the headphones, he was stunned for a moment.

Even in the office, everyone stopped at the same time.

The word "shock" is not enough to describe their feelings at the moment; the word "soul-struck" seems to be more appropriate.

This was perhaps the most embarrassing and unremarkable skit they had ever heard.

The crowd in the audience looked at the two with a mixture of “are you kidding me” and “that’s it” expressions on their faces.

"Clap clap-"

The waiter from the maid cafe clapped in the back.

The people around consciously made way.

When he came to the front, the clerk clapped and praised with a smile: "That's amazing!"

Following her lead, the men behind her also applauded.

It seems that if I had chosen women's clothing at that time, I might have
Gao Mu couldn't help but think of this.

The cell phone rang in time, and the other party seemed to have been in the dark, silently observing their every move.

"Where is the place where the officiant coaxes children 24 hours a day?"

"what?"

This sentence left Gao Mu confused.

"The nerve gas is hidden there, and the deadline is before 3 p.m. Time is money—"

The main priest means the one who presides over the sacrifice.

In other words, the location is a shrine somewhere.

Officer Takagi, this is not a matter of wearing women's clothes or not...wait, does that make some sense?
