Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

We need to find a solution.

If all else fails, it's not a big deal to go back to all the places they've been together.

After all, that was the time.

They are still young and need to go to school, so there aren't many places they can go.

There will always be a place where it is.

This is still better than him waiting aimlessly.

If that doesn't work...

If he had hired a detective, perhaps everything would have been resolved.

That's all I can say.

For Professor Agasa, that girl wasn't a particularly vivid memory.

Zhiyong once read a passage.

During the days they spent together.

There are always unforgettable moments for them.

Perhaps what happened at that moment.

To others, it was nothing out of the ordinary.

Because it was neither heart-wrenching nor earth-shattering, the reason it was unforgettable was that the moment touched the deepest strings of their hearts.

Even if at that moment, the entire message consists of just a glance, a sentence, or a smile.

After experiencing the ups and downs of life, perhaps the things of the past have gradually lost their color in their memories.

But the genuine feelings expressed in that moment will forever remain radiant.

Just like Professor Agasa is now.

For that girl...

Perhaps one of Professor Agasa's actions touched the softest part of her heart, which is why it left such a deep impression on her.

But at that moment.

For Professor Agasa, it was just an ordinary moment.

Right at this moment.

Conan smiled and said, "Actually, there are still clues!"

After hearing what Conan said.

Everyone stared at Conan in astonishment.

Mitsuhiko asked, "You said you have a clue, what kind of clue?"

Conan picked up the postcard.

He pointed to the other side, the one with Professor Agasa's name on it, and said, "Look, below the recipient's name, there's a row of numbers, right? Maybe these numbers are a code that hints at that place."

"Really?"

"But what does this mean?"

Ayumi and the other two were completely bewildered as they looked at the numbers on the postcard.

Yuan Tai read aloud: "These numbers are 4163, 33, 6, 0."

Mitsuhiko also said, "It also says that the hint is 'animal'."

Ayumi asked in confusion, "Doctor, what does this mean?"

Dr. Agasa hesitated and said, "This..."

Ai Haibara chimed in, "If he knew, he would have already met Ms. Kinoshita."

……

Chapter 605 Analyzing the Cipher

Dr. Agasa was speechless.

Ayumi added, "If it were Conan..."

Conan also said, "No, I don't understand it at all, and I don't know what it means."

Ayumi asked again, "Is that so?"

Suddenly, she saw Zhiyong drinking coffee.

She said, "Brother Zhiyong, do you know?"

Zhiyong heard what Bumei asked.

After thinking for a moment.

He then said, "The girl wasn't very old back then, so the codes she left behind aren't overly complicated. They're codes that only children like you could come up with."

Ayumi asked疑惑地, "A code that we kids came up with? What is it?"

Ai said, "If that girl waits until sunset, then there will only be four hours left. If you know this, you should tell her sooner rather than later, so as not to waste time and have to wait until the fifth decade."

Zhiyong shrugged and said, "All I know right now is that the code should be very simple, but we are still missing a clue, which is why we don't know what it means."

Ai snorted coldly and said, "It's pointless to say anything."

Don't know why.

During this period of time.

Ai's attitude towards him is unpredictable, sometimes warm and sometimes cold, leaving people puzzled.

"Let me take another look."

Ayumi took the postcard from Conan's hand.

Conan asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Ayumi?"

I looked at the postcard for a while.

Ayumi said, "Perhaps these numbers refer to the number of animals in our school."

"what?"

Ayumi continued, "Look, there are six rabbits, a rooster, a hen, a canary, and a pigeon at the school. There are exactly thirty-three birds in total."

Conan asked, "What about Zero?"

Ayumi's expression darkened before she said, "It was the turtle that died during the summer vacation."

Professor Agasa laughed and said, "That's impossible. When I was in elementary school, turtles were still alive and well. Besides, back then, the school only kept turtles and chickens. And the number 4163 is inexplicable."

Zhiyong added, "Yes, Ayumi, even if you're right, how could that Ms. Kinoshita have known about the turtle that died during summer vacation forty years ago?"

Ayumi said, "Is that so?"

Yuan Tai asked in confusion, "Turtles are very long-lived; they can actually live forty years."

Mitsuhiko replied, "No, the tortoise is already the third generation. It's said that every time a tortoise dies, the school takes one from the zoo."

Professor Agasa nodded and said, "Yes, the tortoise is a graduate of the school. Mr. Obata Yoichiro, the first director of the Tokyo Zoo, gave the school this as a gift because he hoped that the children could live as long as the tortoise. It is said that tortoises can live for 10,000 years."

Zhiyong thought to himself, "Couldn't it mean something else entirely?"

Of course, he was facing several children.

Zhiyong would definitely not say what was on his mind.

Ayumi suddenly asked, "Doctor, what did you just say?"

Professor Agasa asked in confusion, "Turtles can live for ten thousand years, what's wrong?"

Mitsuhiko said, "No, that's not it. Ayumi was talking about the name of the first director of the Tokyo Zoo."

Genta also said, "It seems to be something like Obata?"

Dr. Agasa replied: "Mr. Obata and Ichiro?"

"and."

"Ichiro."

"gentlemen."

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta all said in unison, "It's him."

Zhiyong said, "You guessed wrong. That's impossible. Putting aside whether Ms. Kinoshita knows Mr. Obata Yoichiro or not, even if she does, she wouldn't use such a code. After all, if Mr. Yoichiro's code is 4163, then what is Obata's code?"

Mitsuhiko said, "Our guess must be right. 4163 is Mr. Ichiro. The answer to the following 33, 6, and 0 must be found in the Tokyo Zoo."

Genta also said, "Yes, there's definitely no mistake."

Zhiyong continued, "Since Kinoshita is going to create a code, it should at least be something that Professor Agasa can guess. In other words, this code must be something that the professor knows. The reason he hasn't guessed it yet is simply because he hasn't thought of it. But the code is set as the name of the first director of the Tokyo Zoo. Could it be that she has a relationship with the director?"

Ayumi asked, "If that's not right, then what is it?"

Zhiyong asked, "Let's put it another way. If it were you, would you use the name of someone you don't know well as a code?"

Professor Agasa nodded and said, "That's right. I will remember Mr. Obata Yoichiro's name because some time ago, I designed an installation for the zoo, and the current director mentioned the name of the first director. So, I will remember that forty years ago, we were all very young and had no idea of ​​Mr. Obata Yoichiro's name."

Ayumi added, "But his name happens to be 4163. It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

Zhiyong said, "We should think more simply. Besides, it also says that it's related to animals. If it were a person's name, I think Ms. Kinoshita would have noted it as well. Otherwise, how could anyone guess?"

Mitsuhiko said, "It's neither this nor that, so what does it mean?"

Genta also said, "Yes, maybe it's at the Tokyo Zoo. Why don't we go and take a look?"

Zhiyong shook his head and said, "Our time is limited. There are less than four hours left until sunset. The Dongdu Zoo is so big. If we don't search with a purpose, even if the clues are really in the Dongdu Zoo, we don't have enough time to search carefully. Therefore, it's better to decipher the real meaning based on these numbers."

Ayumi said, "But right now, we can't understand the meaning of these numbers at all."

Zhiyong asked, "Doctor, is Ms. Kinoshita of mixed race? Or is her English very good?"

Dr. Agasa asked, puzzled, "Why do you think that?"
