"Especially which treasures are related to gold?"
"Moreover, the other party said they went out to sea, so the treasure should be at sea or at the bottom of the sea."
Kazuha Toyama's eyes lit up: "That's right! This will give us a pretty good idea of where Lin Yu went!"
"I'll also have someone look up the relevant information."
"I can also ask Heiji; he should be very interested in these things."
"Ran, if you can get in touch with Shinichi Kudo, he'll probably know a lot of relevant information."
Ran Mouri sighed and said, "But I can't get in touch with him right now."
Just then, Ran Mouri's phone rang. Seeing that it was Shinichi Kudo, Ran excitedly answered the call: "Shinichi, where are you?"
Shinichi Kudo's voice came from the other end: "Ran, I have a tricky case outside, which may take a long time, so I won't be able to come back for a while."
Ran Mouri looked a little disappointed upon hearing this, and couldn't help but purse her lips. Another case.
She couldn't help but recall Lin Yu's words in her diary, and blurted out, "The case, the case, is the case more important than your girlfriend?"
"Aren't you too busy to take a moment to come back and see me?"
Conan, who was making a phone call from a public phone booth across the street, looked embarrassed.
He thought to himself, "How can I face you looking like this?"
He couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'll do my best to resolve things here as soon as possible."
"Xiao Lan, stop being so emotional."
Ran Mouri snorted and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."
"By the way, I have a question for you. What are some of the legends in our Kingdom of Ke about treasures of gold that are located at sea or on islands?"
"The treasure also contains a large amount of gold, worth over or close to hundreds of billions."
Chapter 47: Using a variety of methods, the female protagonists confirm Lin Yu's location.
Conan paused for a moment, then asked, "Ran, why are you suddenly interested in this?"
Ran Mouri replied, "I'm asking for a friend, you know?"
Conan replied, "There are many. As you know, before the 40s, we invaded the Xia Kingdom and plundered a great deal of wealth from that rich Eastern country."
"According to some legends, we plundered more than 3000 tons of gold from that country."
"A considerable number of ships have sunk during maritime transport."
"Especially during the World Wars, many of these transport ships were destroyed and sunk to the bottom of the sea by warships."
"If we're talking about shipwrecks in the sea that contain large amounts of gold, I know of at least five."
"However, those shipwreck locations are only approximate locations."
"Moreover, salvaging the treasure from the shipwreck would be very difficult."
Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri asked, "Is there such a treasure on an island?"
Conan thought for a moment and said, "It seems not."
"I have heard of a gold treasure on an island, but it's not worth 1000 billion, only 10 billion."
Ran Mouri asked, "Where are you? What's going on?"
Conan replied, "That's right. About forty years ago, around 1989, there was a famous tycoon who offended powerful figures in China. He converted all his assets into gold bars and then fled by sea on a cruise ship."
"However, they encountered a typhoon while fleeing, and it is said that the ship went missing and sank near Shikishima."
"It is said that the gold he was carrying at the time was worth more than 10 billion."
Ran Mouri looked a little disappointed upon hearing this: "Okay, I understand."
Sonoko Suzuki, who was standing nearby, asked, "What did Shinichi say? Did he have any information?"
Ran Mouri shook her head and said, "No!"
Sonoko Suzuki said with a troubled expression, "I haven't gathered any information either."
Kazuha Toyama also shook his head.
The three of them frowned. What was going on? Could it be that Lin Yu had said something wrong?
Impossible! The other party couldn't possibly be wrong. Lin Yuke said the information was provided to him by the diary system, so there's absolutely no way it could be wrong; it's gold worth 1000 billion—that's for sure!
Sonoko Suzuki said, "Then there's no useful information?"
Ran Mouri said, "I asked Shinichi, and he said that he only knows of one place with the legend of the gold treasure on the island. However, the gold buried there is only worth about 10 billion."
"More than 40 years ago, a super-rich man converted all his assets into gold worth 10 billion when he fled. His ship sank near Shikijima."
Hearing this, the three girls started to worry again.
But suddenly, Kazuha Toyama exclaimed, "Wait, Ran, what did you just say? Gold worth 10 billion yen, more than 40 years ago."
"Gold that was worth 10 billion more than 40 years ago is worth more than 10 billion now."
"I can't calculate the exact value now, but after 40 years of inflation, the value of this gold is definitely far beyond what we can imagine."
Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki slammed her hand on the table and said, "That's right! It's alright, it doesn't matter if you can't figure it out, our Suzuki family has a professional financial team."
"I'll find someone to calculate it."
A moment later, Sonoko Suzuki stared wide-eyed at the message on her phone and exclaimed in shock, "Gold worth 10 billion yen 40 years ago would weigh more than 1.3 tons, but now it would be worth more than 1000 billion yen."
"It matches up! It's this treasure! Xiaolan, where is it?"
Ran Mouri exclaimed with delight, "Shinichi said it's near Shikishima!"
Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki immediately picked up her phone and ordered, "Butler, prepare a luxury cruise ship for me and set sail immediately! I want to go to Okinawa Island."
"immediately!"
The three women cheered and immediately got into the Suzuki family's luxury car, heading towards the port.
Upon arriving at the port, they immediately boarded a luxury cruise ship that was over 100 meters long.
The three women were very excited: "We caught him! We finally caught him!"
Lin Yu was unaware that by showing off a little, he had revealed his possible location.
Not only Suzuki Sonoko, but Ryuu Ryuu was also heading to Shikishima, but she was in a more distant place and it would take her some time to get there.
Koizumi Akako jumped up excitedly: "Finally, I've divined your information!"
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth: "It really wasn't easy."
"Damn you! You have your diary protecting you, and every time you do a divination, you suffer a backlash."
"But this time I finally succeeded."
Koizumi Akako was trying to use magic and witchcraft to divine Lin Yu's information?
But how could Lin Yu, protected by the diary system, possibly let her succeed?
As a result, Koizumi Akako suffered a backlash and vomited blood.
Later, I saw in the diary system that Lin Yu revealed that he and Tsunade were together.
She then divined Tsunade's information, but Tsunade was also the holder of a copy of the diary, which naturally caused Koizumi Akako to suffer a backlash and vomit blood once again.
This time, the information from Koizumi Akako's divination had nothing to do with the two of them. Instead, it was about the approximate location of the treasure worth 1000 billion that Lin Yu mentioned.
She couldn't divine the exact location, but she did get a general idea that it was on Shikijima.
So she also set off on her journey.
Lin Yu was completely unaware of this and continued writing in her diary.
"Speaking of the Golden Treasure, I can't help but think of another famous Golden Treasure that appeared in Detective Conan: Twilight Mansion."
"That was an amazing treasure."
"I was genuinely shocked when I watched the anime."
"Because it's a castle made of gold."
"It belongs to Karasuma Renya, the final boss of the Detective Conan world."
"On the surface, the Suzuki family is the richest conglomerate in the world of Detective Conan, followed by the Ooka family, but in reality, if we only consider financial resources, Karasuma Renya is number one."
"The combined wealth of the Suzuki and Ooka families may not even equal that of Karasuma Renya."
"The reason why we thought that way when we watched the anime was because of this Twilight Villa."
"But it's true that Karasuma Renya is very rich, and he's also the richest person in terms of wealth, but he's not as rich as netizens imagine."
"Today in my diary, I'll talk about this big boss in black and his wealth."
Chapter Forty-Eight: Twilight Villa
"Everyone thought this guy was incredibly wealthy, because the entire Twilight Villa was made of gold."
"Some people have inferred from this that this villa, made entirely of gold, must be incredibly valuable."
"The answer has already been given in the anime. The female detective said it might be worth hundreds of billions."
"So netizens in our Xia Kingdom spread the rumor that this villa was made entirely of pure gold and was worth hundreds of billions."
"But they forgot that this is a Japanese anime, and the hundreds of billions in it refers to Japanese yen."
"Converted to Chinese currency, it would only be a few billion. Considering that this episode aired around 2002, and after some inflationary calculations, 1000 billion yen is roughly equivalent to 76 billion Chinese currency."
"At that time, the price of gold was about 80 yuan per gram."
"At that time, 100 billion yen was roughly equivalent to more than 90 tons of gold."
"So this Twilight Villa may have been made of hundreds of tons of gold."
"But this is just the estimate given by those detectives who looked down from the sky in helicopters and thought the entire Twilight Villa was made of gold. It's hard to say what it's actually like."
"Because everyone mistakenly believed that this twilight villa was made of pure gold."
"But what I want to say is that these are all wild guesses. The value of Twilight Villa is not as high as people imagine."
"This is a huge castle covering several thousand square meters."
"Gold has a density of 19.3, which means that one cubic meter of gold weighs 19.3 tons."
"If we calculate based on a wall thickness of 20 centimeters."
"Based on the fact that this castle occupies 2500 square meters, has only one floor, and is 4 meters high."
“This castle was built entirely of pure gold. Not counting the internal structure, just the outer walls alone would require 2000 cubic meters of gold, which is about 4 tons.”
"This is utter nonsense! No country in the world has a total gold reserve of 4 tons."
"The total amount of gold in the world is only about 20 tons."
"Moreover, this is only the gold used for the outermost wall."
"If you were to build a golden villa like this, it would at least need to be surrounded by walls, have a roof, and have an internal structure, right?"
"So if it were made of pure gold, there wouldn't be enough gold in the whole world to build such a golden castle."
"There is another problem: pure gold is relatively soft, and with its extremely high density, if it were used to build a house, its own weight would collapse the house itself."
"Therefore, I personally believe that this Twilight Villa could not possibly be made of pure gold; at most, it is covered with a layer of gold."
"If it's just a layer of gold covering the surface, it's hard to say exactly how much gold was used."
"Painting a layer of gold paint on the surface can also make the entire castle look like it's made of pure gold, and it will be a dazzling golden sight."
"Applying a one-millimeter-thick sheet on the outside will achieve the same effect."
"Applying a one-centimeter-thick layer of gold-plated ceramic tiles will achieve the same effect."
"But the value is a completely different story."
"Just applying a layer of gold paint might not even require a few kilograms of gold."
"If you were to attach a thin sheet of one millimeter to the outside, it would require about two to three hundred tons of gold."
"I personally think it's impossible for it to get any thicker."
