Conan: If I Know Magic, I Will Destroy The World

"Mr Mouri!"

A young monk noticed Mouri Kogoro and hurriedly came up to shake his hand and introduce him.

"Thank you for coming from afar. I am Long Yuan who is in contact with you, and this is Yuan Hai, the abbot of this temple."

"These three here are benefactors of this temple~"

Monk Longyuan continued to introduce several other guests-.

"Mr. Shozo Sakura is an ancient art dealer. He runs an antique shop on Teramachi Street. Next to him is Mr. Harutaro Mizuo, the master of the Noh drama Mizuo Ryu [the last one is Mr. Taiga Saijo who runs a second-hand bookstore."

The ancient art merchant Yingzheng who was introduced had a wide body and a fat body, wearing glasses, and the fat on his face revealed the smoothness of a businessman. He casually complimented Mouri Kogoro, but the two next to him were neither sought after nor indifferent.

The young master of Shuiweiliu is a young man with short and medium hair, wearing a kimono, and nodded slightly to Mouri Kogoro, with a bit of a young master's air.

And the old bookstore owner named Saijo Taihe looks like a nerd, with a pair of round glasses on his long and thin face, he looks the most friendly.

"Hehe," the old monk said with a smile, "These three benefactors are actually just like us, they are all good at swordsmanship."

"You are all practicing kendo," Mouri Kogoro said in amazement, "No wonder the abbot's body is so tough.

Chichu Feng stood behind with his arms around Tōyama Kazuha, without any intention of introducing himself.

Of course Mouri Kogoro would not introduce him, if he knew the identity of Chichu Feng, who would care about him?

"Then, Mr. Mouri," Long Yuan took the initiative to lead the way, "I will take you to see the situation."

"Also."

"That..." Xitiao Dahe looked at Chichu Feng who passed by, and opened his mouth, but he couldn't ask.

"That young man looks familiar," Ying Zhengzao's expression flashed with doubt, "Where did you see him?"

"Maybe." Xitiao Dahe frowned slightly.

After separating from Sakura Shozo and others, Mouri Kogoro followed Ryuuen into the main hall, "What? The main Buddha was stolen?!"

"Yeah, it was 8 years ago,"

Long Yuan opened the altar, revealing the only two remaining Buddha statues.

"The one on the left is the statue of the Sunlight Bodhisattva, and the one on the right is the statue of the Moonlight Bodhisattva. The Medicine Buddha Tathagata that was originally placed in the middle was stolen."

"At first, I advocated calling the police immediately, but was stopped by the abbot, who said that if there is a destiny, maybe one day I can meet the Medicine Buddha Tathagata again.

"He really can think about it," Mouri Kogoro complained, "but the day after tomorrow will let the public visit it? It is too tight to find the Buddha statue that has been missing for 8 years in these few days."

Long Yuan led the crowd to the side hall meditation room, and handed a letter without a stamp to Mouri Kogoro: "Actually, I found a letter in the mailbox of the temple just five days ago."

"There is no postage stamp, and there is no description of who the sender is. It's just pretending to be a ghost."

Mouri Kogoro opened the envelope and took out two pieces of letter paper, which said: "As long as you solve the mystery of this painting, you will know where the Buddha statue is."

The next piece of paper is painted with some strange things, and by the way, the original photo of Medicine Buddha Tathagata is also attached.

"What is this drawing?"

After Long Yuan poured the tea and went out, Mouri Kogoro frowned and put the picture in front of Chichu Feng.

Chichu Feng had a black line on his forehead.

You guys are too lazy, you are the one who charged commission fees.

With a push, he pushed the picture in front of Conan.

...asking for flowers...

Don't say I didn't give you a chance in the future.

Conan really got excited and looked at the tissue paper.

The whole picture looks like the steps of a pyramid.

The top five layers are Red's cicada, Green's tengu and Red's goldfish, and the fourth layer is a yellow chicken and a yellow loach, with a black dot next to it.

Below that is between the second and third floors, painted with purple Roland, Green Tengu and Purple Mount Fuji, with an acorn outside.

It is very likely that Genji Hotaru stole the Buddha statue from Sannoji back then, but why did he send such a letter 8 years later?

......0

Conan murmured inwardly.

I don't know if it will be related to the recent murders.

"Kazuha, did you get the bead you asked Hattori for?" Chichu Feng asked.

"got it."

Tōyama Kazuha took out a crystal bead.

It's crystal clear and pretty.

Chichu Feng smiled slightly.

With this bead, you don't have to look for it yourself, the criminal will take the initiative to send it up.

He threaded a string of spider silk and hung the beads around his neck.

At night, Pontocho.

Like Kabukicho, the banks of Pontocho, which is located on the Kamogawa River, are full of tea houses and wine houses, which are particularly lively at night.

Especially in this season when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, sitting on the teahouse across the river to enjoy the cherry blossoms has a special flavor.

There is a small river under the teahouse, and across the embankment is the wide Kamogawa River. You can see the night cherry blossoms blooming on the opposite bank from a distance, which is quite dreamy under the city lights.

Pedestrians by the Kamogawa River are attracted by the beautiful scenery in twos and threes. Many couples lean on the Kamogawa River to enjoy the cherry blossoms, which is very interesting.

Chichu Feng pulled Tōyama Kazuha to an empty cherry tree. .
