I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

"Please have them go to the Ekoda area immediately. If nothing unexpected happens, the last high-yield bomb should be planted in a school or a residential area near a school in the Ekoda area."

What? How did you arrive at that?

Superintendent General Hakuba looked puzzled.

Not only Superintendent Hakuba, but also Deputy Superintendent Moroboshi and Heiji Kuroda were filled with doubt.

However, the two of them are outsiders.

It's not appropriate to directly ask for specific details like Superintendent Hakuba did.

However, Kuroda Hyoue had some guesses in his mind. He didn't know what the two words meant, but he knew the meaning of the first word.

Adoke.

Conversely, it becomes Ekoda, which is the Japanese word for "Ekoda".

Therefore, the bomb was most likely planted somewhere in the Ekoda area, but he had no information about the residential areas near the school.

How did you obtain this?

However, Hakuba Saguru did not intend to explain at this moment, but instead looked at Superintendent Hakuba.

Seeing the determination in his son's eyes.

Superintendent General Hakuba gritted his teeth, picked up his communicator, and contacted Operations Commander Toshiro Odagiri to issue the operational order.

Then he turned off the communicator, looked at Hakuba Saguru, and said seriously.

"Tan, how did you know?"

Now, Hakuba Saguru has finally explained.

"The so-called 'Adoke HAUSA' is misleading."

"The second word is a popular language in Africa. If you use this popular language to infer the meaning of the first word, you will get the meaning of 'wise man' or 'wise man'."

Obviously, this couldn't be the location of the bomb.

A knowledgeable person can see the surface meaning of a bomb at a glance, and then they will think about its specific location.

This should be seen as a form of mockery.

The wise man can understand the meaning behind the bomb's hints, but he cannot immediately discern its true location.

The bomber's statement was likely a sarcastic remark directed at one or two individuals.

Hakuba Saguru suspects that the target of his mockery should be either him or Batman, because only the two of them can be considered true wise men.

This is not self-praise.

There are only two decent detectives in the entire city of Tokyo, and Shinichi Kudo merged into the group after he became a child.

Senma Kōdai, his tea ceremony teacher, was renowned, but still fell short.

Only Batman can be compared to him.

However, Hakuba Saguru did not reveal his thoughts.

Instead, he went on to explain why he came to this conclusion.

The code begins with "Major Leagues" (Major League Baseball), implying that the following content needs to be translated into English. "Extra" becomes "EXTRA".

"High-quality brakes" refers to pitchers with high ERA (Earned Run Average). "Earned Run Average" is a baseball term, abbreviated as "ERA". "Useless" means removing "ERA" from "EXTRA", leaving "XT".

"Reversal" refers to reversing the order of "XT" after arranging them vertically.

"First, arrange 'XT' vertically (X on top, T on the bottom). Then, reverse the order (flip it vertically) so that T is on top and X is on the bottom."

“The shape of the T is similar to the Chinese character “丁”, and the part below the X can be regarded as a secondary element to emphasize the outline of “丁”.

"Therefore, the 'T' shape formed after the 'reversal' represents the residential area marker on the map."

"Similarly, if we change our approach and reverse the order of XT, we can get the Chinese character '文', which is the school symbol on the map. Therefore, the search target is the school and the residential area near the school."

"And [Ekoda] pointed out the location to us..."

"That's my reasoning."

White Horse Scout concludes his remarks.

Superintendent General Hakuba, Deputy Superintendent General Moroboshi, and Heiwa Kuroda: ?

what are you saying?

No, a riddle with two solutions? Can you guys who like solving word puzzles just get out of Beika Town?

This anime is popular only in Japan.

It's all because you guys who love playing word puzzles used a lot of Japanese word puzzles as the key to solving them!

"I have to admit it."

"You are indeed stronger now."

Superintendent General Hakuba sighed.

He felt increasingly powerless, especially with the growing number of superhuman criminals in Beika Town.

If Hakuba Saguru had become a police officer instead of a detective, he might have been able to take over his job in the future.

How do you say that?

A banker's son is still a banker, a politician's son is still a politician, and a superintendent of police's son is naturally still a superintendent of police.

“Compared to this, Mr. Kuroda.”

Hakuba Saguru looked up at Kuroda Heibei and said.

"You can now explain your question."

"If you're coming to see Father at this crucial time, there must be something important you want to tell him, right?"

Kuroda Hyōe: ?

Why do I feel like you're the Superintendent General of Police?

And aren't you trying to take advantage of me by saying that?

Chapter 647 The King of Speed, Each One Stronger Than the Last

Hakuba Saguru has solved the mystery.

When the puzzle was first released, Chen En had already noticed its unusual nature and concluded that the bomb should be placed in a residential area near the school.

However, he couldn't determine where the bomb was.

Tokyo is a metropolis with a population of twelve million and countless schools. This is the timeframe for when the second fax was sent.

He was no longer allowed to investigate one by one, so he had to either obtain the clues about the second bomb or find the bomber.

"The bomb puzzle this time isn't difficult."

"If we were to think like a child, we could easily conclude that the bomb in this case should have been planted..."

Ai Haibara was making her own deductions from the side.

However, her reasoning came to an abrupt halt, not for any other reason than she suddenly remembered that Chen En seemed to have come from the tram station area.

If the bomb really is over at the tram station.

So Chen En wouldn't be in such a rush to ask him to help track down the bomber's location and then take her on a high-speed car ride.

Ai Haibara had ridden in his car once before.

Its speed was fast enough to make her, who rides a Harley, get carsick.

Now, riding in his car again, she could barely bear it if she was mentally prepared, but it seemed that Kazami Yuya couldn't.

"My God!"

"Batman, I think you should also pay attention to your driving safety when you're driving!"

Kazami Yuya said loudly.

He looked at Batman in the driver's seat with a pained expression and said earnestly.

"What will happen to your driver's license if this continues?"

"Don't you worry about having to retake your driver's license test because you've accumulated 12 demerit points?"

Chen En: ?

Holy crap, if you can say something like that, then I really need to slow down.

It's obvious she's carsick and confused.

How could they possibly make me retake my driver's license test? I'm wearing a mask, how could they possibly find my license?

Moreover, the prerequisite for finding a driver's license is

"Fun Facts About Bats"

"I don't have a driver's license, so you don't need to worry about my license being revoked."

Chen En replied.

Upon hearing this...

Kazami Yuya typed a question mark.

Kazami Yuya: ?

When I type a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.

What does it mean to not have a driver's license?

Without a driver's license, how dare you drive this modified car, and at such a high speed?

Even if you don't care about me, you should at least think about the little sister behind me.

"Keep quiet while driving."
