The special features of these star-shaped knives had already been thoroughly understood by his father's generation.

One is a specially made hilt.

Another difference is that the eye pin holes of each star-shaped knife are slightly different.

Even knowing these things, neither he nor his father had been able to connect them and find the whereabouts of the treasure all these years.

But he did think that the eye pin was a relatively important part, which is why he sold the two star-shaped knives that didn't have eye pins.

He dared not say such a thing directly, lest the young lady of the Suzuki family be unhappy.

However, the fact that Sonoko Suzuki discovered the problem with the eyepiece hole so quickly is almost equivalent to the results of her father's decades of hard work. It seems that this Miss Suzuki is indeed quite capable.

He removed the eyelets from several knives and laid them together.

Both are semi-circular eyelets.

The only difference is that one is a left semicircle and the other is a right semicircle.

Seeing this, Conan was pretty much certain that the secret of the Star Prism Blade was probably related to the shape of the eyelet hole.

Meanwhile, Takuzo Akie blinked, as if he knew nothing at all.

"Is there a problem with the eye bolt hole? Actually, I seem to remember the eye bolt holes on the two star-shaped knives from the Fukushiro family as well."

He drew a five-pointed star and a circle on a piece of white paper.

Four different eyepiece holes appeared before them.

Now, the four types of eyelets on the six ordinary star-shaped knives were all in front of them.

The only thing that remains unknown is the eye pin hole of the real Star Prism Blade.

Because the photos Jiang Hang sent them did not contain any detailed descriptions of the eye spikes.

Sonoko Suzuki glanced at Conan and Kogoro Mouri, who were studying the device, and muttered to herself, "Since Jiang Hang hasn't sent over any photos of the eye spikes, does that mean he hasn't realized the problem with them yet?"

It's clear that Sonoko Suzuki was somewhat pleased when she said that.

After all, her relationship with Jiang Hang could only be considered as ordinary friendship. In this competition of wits, she, known as the "Sleeping Queen of Deduction," and Kogoro, who is known as the Sleeping One, have now formed an alliance, naturally wanting to outdo Jiang Hang.

Sonoko Suzuki, who shares the same thick skin as Kogoro Mouri, is completely unaware that their reputations as "famous detectives" both rely on Conan's abilities.

As for Conan himself?

His idea from the beginning was all about participation.

After all, during their investigation along the way, they already knew that there were only six Star Prism Blades in existence. It was said that Jiang Hang's true Star Prism Blade was used once by Hijikata Toshizo, and then passed into the hands of Axe Jiangkusaburō. After that, no one knew its current whereabouts.

Even Fukushiro Yoshie, who has been by Tokie Tadashi's side for over twenty years, said he had never seen the true appearance of the Star Prism Blade.

The last owner of the True Star Prism Blade was Saburo Axewa.

During the war, Saburo Fuewa hid an item that was said to be able to rewrite the world order.

Meanwhile, the true Star Prism Blade also disappeared without a trace after that.

So, where did the real Star Prism Blade go?

The answer to this question is really hard to guess.

However, Conan discovered that everyone he knew was indeed more outstanding than the last.

They are still grappling with the secret of the six star-shaped blades.

Jiang Hang, who had no idea that he could use the real Star Prism Blade as a treasure map, was probably already far ahead of them from the very beginning.

However, because he realized this, Conan was no longer so obsessed with the mystery.

Since everyone is so eager to uncover the secret of the six star-shaped blades, let them be.

Because Maki is still hospitalized, their Hakodate victory trip was ruined from the start. Now, let's find some time for them to pass the time with a puzzle activity that seems somewhat interesting.

In a sense, Conan now places Kogoro Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki on the same level as the Detective Boys.

Anyway, Professor Agasa's usual habit during his outings was to inexplicably come up with some puzzles to test the Junior Detective League kids, and that's how he played the supporting role.

Now it's just that Jiang Hang has taken over, and the treasure looks a bit more high-end.

Conan was quite relaxed, letting Sonoko Suzuki and Kogoro Mouri praise each other, saying that he would definitely surpass Jiang Hang this time.

On the other hand, it was different for Takuzo Fue.

Upon hearing the name Jiang Hang, Fu Jiang Tuo San subconsciously gritted his teeth, revealing a hint of lingering fear.

Conan, who was standing nearby, also noticed the other person's appearance.

Could it be that Jiang Hang has already come to see Fu Jiang Tuo San?

Judging from Tokie Takuzo's expression, could it be that Jiang Hang did something to him?

No, while Jiang Hang's personality is indeed quite awful, he generally doesn't cause trouble for no reason.

It's only possible that this Jiang Hang was provoked by Jiang Tuosan, so Jiang Hang came to retaliate.

Thinking back to the subtle atmosphere he had sensed ever since he first entered the Fue family home, Conan began to ponder.

The Fujiang family's financial situation is now very bad.

The family's financial situation was evident in many places in their home, suggesting they had likely sold a number of decorations to make ends meet.

The reason for currying favor with Sonoko Suzuki is that the Suzuki family is acquiring the assets of the Fue family.

Only when Sonoko Suzuki first mentioned the family's secret treasure did Takuzo Onoe show a hint of resistance on his face, as if he was very unwilling to let Sonoko Suzuki get involved in the matter.

However, due to the power and influence of the Suzuki family, he quickly adjusted his mindset and prepared to share the treasure equally with the Suzuki family.

In other words, the other party was actually unwilling at first.

This reluctance probably reached its peak after Sonoko Suzuki mentioned that Jiang Hang would also take a share.

Come to think of it, although the original Fue Takuzo couldn't find the whereabouts of the treasure, it still belonged to the Fue family and was entirely their property.

The Suzuki Group is wealthy and powerful. If the other party can really find the whereabouts of the treasure, then they can't help but take half of it.

However, in the heart of Takuzo Fue, there is probably more dissatisfaction with Jiang Hang.

They questioned why one person could share the treasure equally with the Suzuki Group.

In other words, the other party may have sent people to cause trouble for Jiang Hang during this period?

Thinking about this, Conan couldn't help but wonder how Takumi Onoe had provoked Jiang Hang, and how Jiang Hang had retaliated against him.

Thinking this, Conan's gaze fell on the opened bottle of red wine.

He also has some knowledge of red wine. Although he is not like Jiang Hang, who is a cheat code, he can distinguish the types and quality of wines in the world just by their color and smell. He doesn't drink alcohol at all and uses his own juice that can simulate the taste of wine to fool others when he attends banquets.

But he could still tell that it must have been a bottle of fine wine worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Given that Sonoko Suzuki had already indicated that she probably wouldn't be staying for dinner that night, and considering her current financial situation, she probably wouldn't bring out such good wine to drink prematurely.

So, Jiang Hang's revenge on him was to open a bottle of red wine worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Conan frowned slightly.

He didn't think the punishment was excessive.

He felt that this kind of punishment was completely out of character for Jiang Hang.

Think about that guy who provoked Jiang Hang a while ago.

She's the woman who was saved by Jiang Hang, yet still accused him of threatening her with a dangerous knife.

Jiang Hang first instructed everyone to include this incident in his casebook, meticulously recording how the other party had accidentally run over and killed a child while driving in high heels, which ultimately led to the child's father's revenge.

Then I heard that Jiang Hang bought several film studios and made the editors of Ultraman, who were filming there, work overtime to write a profound script based on that woman's appearance and personality, and speed up the filming process.

In the end, he even took the initiative to help the rich second-generation guy who wanted to stand up for his girlfriend get together with that woman, forcing the rich second-generation father, who had always disagreed with his son's marriage, to grit his teeth and set a wedding date for the two. According to Jiang Hang, the rich man seems to have completely given up on his son and is preparing to start a new account when he is over fifty years old.

Thinking about Jiang Hang's methods, Conan felt a pang of sympathy for the poor rich kid.

It would be truly strange if Jiang Hang let Axe Jiang Tuo San off so easily.

Then, Conan saw a bodyguard beckoning to Takumi Onoe with a strange expression.

As for Takuzo Fue, he said he had something to do and told Sonoko Suzuki to look around as she pleased, then turned and walked outside.

Driven by curiosity, he secretly took advantage of his small stature and low profile to quietly follow them.

At a deserted bend in the road, the bodyguard handed the surveillance footage he had pulled up to Takumi Fue.

"Young Master Fu Jiang, this, this is the surveillance footage you requested, but we really couldn't find anyone else in it?"

"Are you kidding me? That bottle of wine is right here in the living room. Didn't the security cameras capture who took it out?"

The bodyguard looked at the agitated Takumi Axe with an even stranger expression.

He didn't dare to speak, but instead showed the surveillance video to Takumi Fue.

"Let me see what this is all about," Takuzo Akie muttered to himself, then took one look and started sweating profusely again.

Because there was no one else in the surveillance video.

He did everything himself!

The surveillance video clearly captured the entire process of him retrieving wine from the cellar, and the whole process was very natural.

Even he himself felt that this person's demeanor and actions seemed to be the real him.

Fue Takuzo stared blankly at himself in the video, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

So, he went to the wine cellar and took the bottle out himself?

But why doesn't he have any recollection of it?

That wasn't all. The next segment the bodyguard played for him was a scene of him playing two roles in the living room, a scene of his split personality.

All I saw was him first opening a bottle of red wine on the sofa, taking a quick sip, and then running a few meters away to make a shocked expression, questioning the air.

Throughout the entire process, although no sound could be heard, Takuzo Axe couldn't find anything wrong with the surveillance footage even with his eyes wide open.

Could it be that he has recently developed symptoms of schizophrenia due to the excessive financial pressure on the Fujiang family?

At that moment, seeing the bodyguard's sympathetic gaze, Takuzo Axe began to panic.

Impossible. Everything just now seemed so real. How could it be schizophrenia?

Takuzo Axe took out his phone again, wanting to find those photos to confirm that everything he had just experienced was not an illusion.
