Chapter 710: Forgetting Righteousness for the Sake of Beauty, Bah!

"Become a monk?!"

Yuanzi understood now and let out a surprised sound.

‘You just reacted? ’

Fujino glanced at the startled Miss Suzuki speechlessly and complained silently in his heart.

On second thought, he looked at the old abbot with a sincere face, frowned, and was a little confused.

This is both the root of wisdom and the light of the Buddha, just to allow him to "escape into Buddhism" and become a monk?

He Teng has Buddha's light, is he suitable to be a monk?

Let’s just say, can a person who is as good as a shark still have Buddha’s light in him?

Is it possible that the Buddha's light is a killing halo?

"Mr. Abbot, I don't know what you mean by fate?" Ooka Hongye asked doubtfully.

The abbot still clasped his hands together, and his tone sounded unusually sincere: "The Buddha's light behind Mr. Fujino soared into the sky. The first time I saw him, I seemed to see the Buddha coming in person. If you come to my Buddhist practice, the light will surely shine on the world and make the world shine. Peace in the world and blessings to all living beings..."

Fujino stopped the old abbot: "Forget it about escaping into Buddhism or something. If you have an amulet or something, just take it out. I bought it."

Although it's not the same world, it's the same routine. Fujino is very familiar with these words.

This is how those bald donkeys deceived people in the past life, saying that you have a predestined relationship with my Buddha, buy peace, blessings, and so on.

If the price is not expensive, most people will buy it in order to avoid being discouraged. But usually the things sold by these bald donkeys are too expensive, with an item costing several thousand. If you don't buy it, you will be cursed... It is really frustrating.

"Since Donor Fujino has no intention, it is inconvenient to force it."

The old abbot Yuan Hai sighed, "If you want the amulet of this temple, I will personally pick it up for you later. You don't need these extraneous things."

Fujino looked at the old abbot who looked regretful and was startled.

I'm not selling amulets... What kind of trick is this?

Suddenly, he remembered his profession: [Immortal Monk]

One of the passives of the countless eminent monks [Innate Buddhist Physique] will make the monks feel as close to them as possible, and there is a crossed out after it: [And I hope you can convert to Buddhism as soon as possible].

It seems like this is passively triggered?

Thinking of this, Fujino realized that he seemed to have wrongly blamed the old abbot, and immediately said: "Actually, it's not unintentional, it's just unnecessary. Buddhist practice, everything in the world is practice. Since it is practice, then in the temple What’s the difference between spiritual practice and spiritual practice outside the temple?”

The old abbot Yuan Hai was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes immediately shone: "So that's it...it's the foolish monk who has taken the form."

Fujino glanced at the old monk who seemed to be enlightened, and changed the topic: "But speaking of which, your temple seems to have a commission from Brother Maori this time. Can you tell me what the commission is?"

"Let's go to the temple and talk about this."

Long Yuan walked over and led everyone into the temple behind him: "I wonder if you have heard of Medicine Master Tathagata, the main Buddha of our temple?"

"I've heard of this."

Ooka Momiji, who was following behind, responded: "It should be a secret Buddha statue that is consecrated only once every twelve years and is open to the public, right?"

Mao Lilan echoed: "I've heard about it too, and I want to pay homage when I come here."

"The time for public worship will be the day after tomorrow."

Monk Long Yuan sighed: "But the Medicine Buddha statue is not in the temple. It was stolen eight years ago, so I asked Mr. Maori to come over..."

As he spoke, he walked towards the cabinet in the center of the entrance to the temple, opened it, and revealed the two Buddha statues enshrined inside: "The one on the left is the Moonlight Bodhisattva, and the one on the right is the Sunlight Bodhisattva. The empty space in the middle was originally placed It is Medicine Buddha."

After a brief introduction, he closed the cabinet: "I originally planned to call the police directly, but was stopped by the abbot. He said: [If there is a fate, the Buddha statue may be lost and recovered, but if there is no fate, this is the only way] ”

"Then he is really open-minded..." Mouri Kogoro couldn't help complaining.

Fujino also nodded in agreement, agreeing with his brother's words.

Generally speaking, if a Buddha statue is stolen, the police should be called.

But this does the opposite...

It can only be said that it looks like there is a ghost. If he didn't know better, he would probably directly suspect that Yuan Hai was the presiding thief.

However, in his memory, the host Yuan Hai was not the real murderer.

This host is really open-minded.

"Eight years have passed like this, until five days ago, we received a letter in the temple."

Monk Ryūen invited everyone to a side room of the temple, made tea, took out a letter from the pocket of the monk's robe, and handed it to Mouri Kogoro.

"There are no stamps, no name, and no delivery address. It looks like it was stuffed into the mailbox."

"As long as you solve the puzzle, you can find the location of the Buddha statue."

Mouri Kogoro took the envelope, opened it, and recited the contents of the first letter. Looking at the second letter at the bottom, he couldn't help but complain: "But what is this painting?"

"The fifth layer at the top should be painted with cicadas, tengu, and goldfish, right?"

Conan stepped forward and took a look: "The two painted below should be chickens and loaches."

"The paintings in the middle of the second and third layers should be violets, tengu, and Mount Fuji, and the ones on the edge should be acorns."

Xiaolan came over and took a look curiously, "But why is there a black spot between the goldfish and the loach?"

Yuanzi touched his chin: "It must be a stain that accidentally dripped while writing, right?"

Xiaolan nodded and said hesitantly: "Speaking of dad, can you find the Buddha statue before the day after tomorrow?"

Mouri Kogoro said bravely: "Of course, I can definitely solve this kind of puzzle in just a few clicks!"

Yuanzi suddenly said at this time: "Uncle, do you have any clues?"

Mouri Kogoro felt a little guilty: "Of course... of course!"

Yuanzi curled his lips: "It looks like there is none."

Mouri Kogoro was ridiculed, and he suddenly said unhappy and resentful: "You said it really easily. How could you figure out such an inexplicable code so quickly?"

"That's just uncle, you just don't have it."

Suzuki Sonoko crossed her arms and transformed into the famous detective Sonoko on the spot, saying proudly: "I already have some clues."

Xiaolan was surprised: "Yuanzi, have you found any clues?"

"Um!"

Yuanzi nodded and asked, "Look at the shelf in this painting, does it look familiar?"

"look familiar……?"

"It was the last time I went to Izu."

Sonoko explained: "Look at that shelf, does it look like a shelf? There are tengu masks, goldfish, cicadas..."

"I remembered!"

Xiaolan thought about it for a moment, and then she suddenly had an idea: "It's a fireworks festival. Last time we went to Izu for the fireworks festival, there were these things there."

As she said that, she glanced at the tips of Haiyuan Ai's hair: "There are violets in it, which may be hairpins. After all, the hairpin Xiao Ai is wearing is the prize she got at the last fireworks festival!"

Hui Yuan Ai silently touched her hairpin, not understanding what these people were talking about.

She looked at the content on the painting and had no clue.

Thinking that this time it was not Fujino's commission, I finally stopped thinking too much and decided to fish.

"So this is ah!"

Mouri Kogoro thought for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly realized: "If it is a fireworks festival, that means that the Buddha statue is hidden in a place where fireworks festivals are often held!"

Monk Long Yuan also thought thoughtfully when he heard this: "If this is the case, it is indeed possible. After all, there are indeed cuffed loaches at the fireworks festival..."

Conan: "..."

He looked at the people who were gradually convinced of this with dead eyes.

To be honest, he was a little confused as to how these people came up with the idea of ​​having a fireworks festival...

That's right, it does make sense, but why does he always feel a little outrageous?

What’s even more outrageous is that these people actually believe it!

"Um!"

Sonoko nodded and agreed seriously: "If you think about it this way, it must be like this, that stand is the stand for the ring game, and the chicken may be a doll, just like the dinosaur doll that Fujino-senpai gave me! "

"Um……?"

Ooka Hongye frowned when he heard this. He didn't think about the reasoning everyone said. He just noticed the key word-dinosaur doll.

Blinking, she felt something was wrong. First she glanced at Fujino, and then at the proud Sonoko, with a hint of suspicion gradually appearing in her eyes.

Yuanzi noticed the gaze lingering on him and was quite satisfied with his ability to kill two birds with one stone.

To be honest, she didn't expect that she could actually deduce this secret code.

Well, maybe she can become a high school detective someday.

I’ve already thought of a nickname, so I’ll call her the Queen of Reasoning Sonoko!

As expected, this young lady is a genius!

Sonoko felt a little proud in her heart, and asked Fujino: "Fujino-senpai, do you think my reasoning is correct?"

Fujino: "..."

You alone have led everyone astray. What should I say? What else can I say?

Are you sure she's not Brother Maori's illegitimate daughter, or maybe she was carried wrongly in the hospital?

After all, he has only seen this skill in Brother Maori so far...

Fujino was helpless for a moment and then said: "But if it is a place where a fireworks festival is held, it is really unrealistic. I don't think it is a fireworks festival. These codes must have other deep meanings."

Ooka Momiji withdrew his gaze at this time and echoed: "Yes, there are many places where fireworks festivals are held every year in Kyoto, and the locations are uncertain. In addition to the fireworks festivals, there are also these activities at night markets."

"Hey, is that so?"

Yuanzi frowned and murmured thoughtfully: "If you think about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the case..."

"Did you guess wrong?"

At this time, Mouri Kogoro suddenly said: "I'm just talking about such a complicated code. How could you, a layman, come up with any clues?"

"What are you talking about!"

Yuanzi's face was bluffing: "Uncle, didn't you think it should be a place where fireworks festivals are often held?"

"I was disturbed by you!"

"alright!"

Seeing that her father was quarreling with her best friend, Xiaolan quickly changed the topic with a smile: "Fujino-senpai, do you have any clues?"

"I don't have either at the moment."

Fujino shook his head slightly. To be honest, he had never been very good at passwords or anything like that.

Although I still vaguely remember this theatrical version of the case, I really can’t recall the details...

Fujino thought for a while and looked at Haihara Ai beside him.

The secret assistant also shook his head slightly helplessly, having no clue about this.

Everyone thought for a while.

Suzuki Sonoko couldn't sit still for the first time, stood up and suggested: "Well, let's leave the job of finding Buddha statues to the uncle who was entrusted with it. Anyway, he is an expert who will definitely be able to find it right away. Let's go and visit Kyoto. ”

"It's best this way, so that you don't hinder my work here." Mouri Kogoro nodded and stared at the code in his hand seriously.

"Actually speaking, I contacted He Ye before coming here."

Xiaolan chuckled lightly at this time and mentioned: "Originally, I planned to ask her to come and take us, but I didn't expect that Miss Hongye was also called over by Fujino-senpai... Wait until tomorrow, and we can go shopping in Kyoto together. ”

Conan suddenly asked at this time: "Will Hattori-san come too?"

"I heard from Kazuha that Hattori seems to be busy with something and won't come with him."

Xiaolan looked at Conan and responded, then asked: "Conan, do you want to go together?"

"I won't go!"

Conan responded with a sweet voice, winked at Fujino, and said meaningfully: "Brother Fujino, how about we go fishing together tomorrow?"

"fishing?"

Fujino narrowed his eyes and said, "No, I will take Xiao Ai and them to visit Kyoto tomorrow."

Conan: "..."

Good guy, you are so decisive in refusing!

Don't you see there's something in my words?

Conan felt that he might not be obvious enough, so he winked and continued to act coquettishly: "But, I just saw it! There are many children fishing on the river nearby. I want it too. fishing!"

"It's a rare trip here. Fishing is not interesting."

Fujino touched Haihara Ai's head next to him: "Little Ai has never been to Kyoto. She said she wanted to see Kyoto."

Haibara Ai:"?"

When did I say this?

Hui Yuan Ai, who was fishing, was confused for a moment and looked confused.

She raised her eyes thoughtfully and was attracted by Conan's strange appearance. She silently showed a disgusted expression and said lightly: "I want to see Kyoto."

Conan: "..."

Sometimes I really want to kick you two to death.

"Okay, Conan!"

Xiaolan noticed something was wrong with Conan and smiled: "It's okay to wait until you come back to go fishing..."

"Okay then, I'll go ask the kids later if they can take one of me with them."

Conan nodded regretfully, glanced at Fujino with a resentful look, and thought to himself: Fujino definitely did this on purpose!

Just now, combined with the stolen Buddha statue eight years ago and the recent serial murders, Conan felt that the two things were related and must have been done by members of the Genji Hotaru Thieves Group.

After some reasoning, he had already thought of a breakthrough.

Originally, there was no black chicken friend, so he planned to ask Fujino to go there with him. After all, he remembered that Fujino seemed to be involved in the investigation of that case...

But he didn't expect to be rejected directly!

And it was the reason to take that guy Haibara Ai and a group of girls to Kyoto!

Are women good at solving crimes?

It's a shame that I thought of you the first time, but you were actually thinking of women!

Bah, what a shameless guy!

Conan severely condemned Fujino and planned to solve the case secretly.
