Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Outside Foguang Temple, it was late in the evening, Gao Cheng, Hattori and Conan met in front of a stone tablet.

"The ruins of Yulong Temple..."

"Kito, it's exactly what you said," Hattori said excitedly, "Kids here in Kyoto use songs to remember the names of roads, so the steps on the treasure map are actually the streets of Kyoto. If you roll, roll, you think of Yuchi Road, and all the clues point to this place..."

"but……"

Gao Cheng looked at the stone tablet engraved with the words "Yulong Temple Ruins": "Can we really find evidence like this?"

"As long as you find the Buddha statue, you will be able to find the murderer," Hattori carefully took out the cloth bag containing crystal beads, "I think he can't wait too? After all, in order to monopolize this treasure, he even killed Mr. Sakura, who was in charge of selling the stolen goods." ... Now all that remains is to find the current location of Jade Dragon Temple."

"Beep beep!" The cell phone on Hattori's body suddenly rang.

"It's Kazuha..." Hattori connected the phone smoothly, "What's wrong?"

"This girl is in my hands," a male voice with a modified voice came from the other side of the phone, "Come to Yulong Temple alone in Anma Mountain in an hour. If you dare to call the police, this girl will die..."

"Heiji! You can't come here, you will be killed!"

"He Ye!"

Hattori put away the phone with an ugly face, gritted his teeth and looked around.

"He Ye was kidnapped, that guy...should be more than one person..."

"What did the other party say?"

"Let me go to the Jade Dragon Temple on Mount Anma alone in an hour..."

"How will your body go now?" Gao Cheng grabbed the impatient Hattori, "It's enough for Kudo and I to help you get there."

"Are you kidding me..."

Hattori was still trying to be brave, but he staggered and almost fell to the ground, his head was dizzy and he gritted his teeth: "Anyway, I have to save Kazuha..."

...

On Anma Mountain, as the night falls, a round moon emerges from the clouds, and the Yulong Temple under the moonlight is silent.

The only sound was the crackling and burning of two rows of braziers in the front yard.

Gao Cheng wore clothes that had been cut by a short knife, and carried a wooden knife, lowered the brim of his hat and walked up the mountain step by step. After passing through the gate of Yulong Temple, he looked straight at the end of the two rows of torches.

The murderer wearing the old man's mask held He Ye hostage and stood opposite...

"Heiji!" He Ye struggled.

"I'm here," Gao Cheng said in Hattori's Kansai accent, "Let Kazuba go!"

"Hmph," the masked man sneered, "let it go if you say so?"

"Is this your purpose?" Gao Cheng took out the crystal bead from the cloth bag and showed it to the masked man, "I can give it to you, but you have to release He Ye first!"

"No problem, but you have to tell me where the Buddha statue is hidden first... Say, where is the Buddha statue?!"

"The picture of Sanneng Temple was sent by you, right? In fact, the Buddha statue is in this temple..."

"What?" the masked man scolded, "Nonsense! I've already searched here!"

"There's nothing you can do if you don't believe it. Anyway, I didn't lie to you," Gao Cheng said calmly, "That picture is a jade character, and the Buddha statue is in the Jade Dragon Temple."

The masked man fell silent, and pushed He Ye, whose arms were tied behind his back, forward, and when He Ye walked towards Gao Cheng, he suddenly drew his sword.

A cold light flashed, and the masked man chased after him with a smirk and a knife. Gao Cheng's eyes sank, and he held Lake Toya with his backhand and rushed towards He Ye as well.

"Be careful!"

"boom!"

The wooden sword met the Taidao from bottom to top, sank slightly and parried the attack forcefully, forcing the masked man back a step.

He Ye was almost pulled away, and after reacting, he looked at Gao Cheng's face under the brim of his hat in a daze: "You are..."

"Let's get out of here first."

Gao Cheng glanced at the masked man, turned around and took He Ye away, but before he ran out of the temple gate, a group of sword-wielding warriors wearing ghost masks stopped him.

All of them are Kaifeng's real knives. It seems that when it comes to the world of Gintama again, these guys are really powerful enough. Where did so many real knives come from?

General Gao Cheng and Ye Hu were beside him, frowning and looking at the masked man in the temple who was sneering again and again: "So this is your base camp, do you think you can trap me like this?"

"These are my disciples, do you think I can let you go?" the masked man stood up, and once again clenched his dagger and commanded the surrounding samurai, "Don't meddle!"

"Stop!" He Ye shouted anxiously, "He is not Heiji..."

"go to hell!"

The masked man's sword was like the wind, chasing Gao Cheng and slashing repeatedly, but Gao Cheng didn't fight back, he just swayed his body to avoid the instant rainstorm attack, and raised the wooden knife to parry the Taidao when the masked man's power was interrupted.

"Your swordsmanship...is it ancient swordsmanship?" Gao Cheng asked.

"What?" The masked man stopped his pace and met Gaocheng's gaze under the brim of his hat, "You are not that Hattori! Who is it?!"

"I do know who you are." Gao Cheng looked directly at the masked man, "The reason why you chose to meet in Pontocho instead of Miyagawacho or other teahouses is because there is only a river behind that teahouse... I I think you probably told Mr. Sakura that the Buddha statue was hidden in the basement warehouse of the tea house, and then killed Mr. Sakura while going to the toilet, and then put the murder knife and the positioning device in the bottle and threw it outside into the river... ..."

The masked man was silent and let Gao Cheng analyze it. An old man's mask was dyed red by the flames, and he couldn't see the expression underneath.

"Tracking the murder weapon through the positioning device afterwards," Gao Cheng continued, "After you recovered the bottle, you ambushed Hattori halfway back to Osaka, trying to kill Hattori with the same short knife. Although the plan failed, you still stayed. The short knife... The purpose should be to make people mistakenly believe that the murderer is someone who escaped from the tea house with the knife yesterday, so as to exonerate himself...

"Am I right? Benkei, Saijo Taiga-san?"

"Hmph!" The masked man sneered and tore off his turban, and removed the mask to reveal a sharp and stern face, not at all like the original nerd.

"I think I also know who you are... You are indeed the famous Japanese detective Kido Takasei, how did you suspect me?"

"Jihu?" He Ye watched in a daze as Gao Cheng took off his hat, revealing a chocolate-colored face.

"I started to suspect it from the tea house, but I couldn't be sure it was you, and then I heard Hattori said that the murderer's swordsmanship has never been seen before, and... when you kneel and sit, your right foot will drag back for a while before you sit down , there is a term for this called dragging half feet, people who are proficient in bows and arrows will of course be used to sitting like this, plus the ancient swordsmanship just now..."

"Looks like I said something I shouldn't have said."

Saijo snorted coldly and said, "I practice swords in the same kendo field as Ryuuen and the others. Because of this, I learned one day that there is an ancient school in Kyoto called Yoshitsune-ryu, and then I started to study Yoshitsune-ryu myself. And I quit the sword dojo two years ago, and started calling myself Yoshitsune-ryu's successor...Compared with Benkei, I like Yoshitsune more, I always wanted to be Yoshitsune!"

Saijo looks terrifying.

"But Yoshitsune's title was taken away by the leader, so I can only be crowned with the title of Benkei!"

"You killed the leader?" Gao Cheng pinched the recording pen in his pocket with his fingers.

"Of course not!" Saijo shouted, "The leader used to be the abbot of this Jade Dragon Temple, and after the temple was abandoned, it was also managed by the leader. Passed away three months ago, this temple will also be demolished, then I can’t use this place as a dojo!!”

"That's why you want to swallow that Buddha statue to yourself?"

"Yes, the buyer has already been found... But I am not doing it for selfish desires, because as long as I sell the Buddha statue, I can build a Yoshitsune Dojo in Kyoto!"

Saijo raised the blade.

"Hand over the crystal bead!"

"Is such a Yoshitsune Dojo necessary?"

Gao Cheng moved away and pushed Kazuya behind him: "Hattobu, take Kazuya away!"

"Ah?!" He Ye exclaimed and was hugged by a ghost-faced samurai. Before he could realize what was going on, he saw the samurai tearing off the mask to reveal Hattori's familiar Heitan face.

"Kiroto!" Hattori rushed out of the battle circle with Kazuha, repelled the samurai rushing to the side, and looked back at Gao Cheng who stopped many ghost-faced samurai, "Bastard, it's not like what we agreed at the beginning!"

"You go first, I'll come right away!" Gao Cheng cut a few katanas with his horizontal sword, kicked away the approaching ghost-faced samurai, and stopped everyone in the temple. A few samurai walked towards Saijo along with several figures who fell to the ground screaming.

As the night wind blows, the cherry blossoms in the temple flutter with the wind, and the pieces of night cherry blossoms reflect the charming cherry red moonlight, which overlaps with the broken image of the demon knife and red tassels in memory.

Gao Cheng raised his head slightly, and Lake Toya collided with Saijo Tachi again.
