Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 316 310. The old lady with a lot of blood

Two days later, Qianjian Jiangdai and Da Shang Zhushan both became senior consultants of Yixin Consulting Company.

Seven days later, after many negotiations with the owner of the Dusk Villa, Lin Longma finally bought the Dusk Villa for US$8000 million.

After another seven working days of expedited procedures, the ownership of the Dusk Villa and the surrounding 15 hectares of mountain forest land was successfully transferred to Lin Longma.

After a careful inspection, Lin Longma discovered that although the Dusk Villa was "very old", it had been well maintained by each owner.

This means they can save a lot of money on building renovations.

"Is this the famous Dusk Villa?" Lin Longma brought Da Shang Zhu Shan, Qian Jian Jiang Dai and a group of his men to the Dusk Villa.

It can be said that this villa is worthy of being the former ancestral home of the Karasuma family. It is extremely magnificent.

"It is indeed very famous, but it's a pity that the people living there now are no longer the same people as before."

After all, Chikan Jyoudai's father died at the hands of Karasuma Renya, so it is normal for him to sound sarcastic at this moment.

If it weren't for the search for the treasure of Karasuma Renya's mother, Chikan Kyouyo would probably never set foot in this place in his life.

The old lady's intention was obvious. She wanted to find out what had killed her father.

The second reason is probably that Xukong wants to kill Karasuma Renya.

If the treasure can really be found successfully, wouldn't this just prove the authenticity of the treasure and be another kind of irony to Karasuma Renya?
"Well, let's hurry up. Ms. Qianjian, did you bring the code about the annex?"

"of course."

Qianjian Jiangdai opened her handbag and carefully took out a letter from it, or to be more precise, a letter from home.

This is the letter that Mr. Qianjian sent to Qianjian Jiangdai.

"My father probably had a premonition that he would not be released by Karasuma Renya, so he used a needle to send this secret code back.

It was only later that I discovered that there were additional needle marks on my father’s letters home.”

"This is a summary of the codes."

Qianjian Jiangdai took out another A4 paper, on which was written the secret code that Mr. Qianjian had tattooed on the letter home.

[Two people travel in the sky, look up to the sky, and meet the devil at night, the city is coming,

The king's treasure is held in his arms, and he flees and is confused.

Princess's Holy Grail

Soldiers are made from blood and stained with blood.

The two travelers were in a hurry and looked up at the sky at night.
The devil descended upon the castle.

The king took the treasure and fled.

The princess wept in the Holy Grail and begged for mercy.
The soldier died and slashed his own throat with his sword, and the ground changed color. 】

To be honest, it was a common knowledge that Lin Longma was not good at secret codes. He was already having a headache looking at ordinary secret codes, not to mention such confusing secret codes.

There were travelers, demons, kings, and soldiers. Lin Longma was completely confused after reading it all. He had no idea at all.

Lin Longma simply handed the code back to Qianjian Jiangdai and spread his hands helplessly: "No, I still can't handle this kind of code.

It seems that the deciphering of this code still depends on you two."

"Please rest assured, President. You have already done the most difficult part for us. If Ogami and I can't even crack this code, how can we have the face to stay in the detective industry?" Old lady Chikan Kyodai happily took the code from Lin Ryoma, and for a moment she had a very good impression of Lin Ryoma.

President Lin is indeed a good boss who respects technology, just as that kid Da Shang said.

What professionals like them are never afraid of are professional difficulties. Instead, what they fear most are laymen who have the right to speak.

It would be even more annoying if you meet an amateur who pretends to know everything.

There was no compliment in her words to Lin Longma, because for her and Da Shang Zhushan, the most difficult thing was to raise enough money to buy the Dusk Villa.

As for the deduction code, is that a problem for the famous detective? To put it bluntly, even if she and Ogami Zhushan can't figure it out, can't other detectives figure it out?
If the code was really that difficult, Chikan Kyoudai had already thought about suggesting to Lin Ryoma that he invite some of the famous detectives from the island country.

This is called professional dialogue.

The old lady was full of disgust towards Karasuma Renya back then - why are you looking for an archaeologist to crack the code?
Shouldn't a detective be called in to handle this matter?

It’s no wonder that so many people can’t figure out the meaning of the code. How can they reach the end if they are taking the wrong path?
Of course, there is another meaning to Chikan's words. To put it in a more childish way, it means that he is risking his reputation as a famous detective!

Dashang Zhushan, who was standing by, didn't understand why his elder sister suddenly got so angry.

However, when it comes to giving employers confidence, Dashang Zhushan is still very good at it.

"Don't worry, President. Leave the code to us. You can now inspect your own annex~"

After Dashang Zhushan finished speaking, he and Lin Longma looked at each other and smiled.

That’s right. Now the ownership of Dusk Villa is in Lin Longma’s hands. It is not wrong to say that Dusk Villa is Lin Longma’s property.
-
Lin Longma walked around the villa for a long time, and basically visited every room in a hurry, but it still took a long time.

It was dinner time, and Lin Longma brought with him a butler, a maid and a chef.

It was obvious that Hayashi Ryoma didn't think that the mystery that Karasuma Renya had tried so hard to solve would be solved that day.

This is also the request of Da Shang Zhu Shan and Qian Jian Jiang Dai.

They had no intention of leaving since they came here today. The two veteran detectives planned to eat and sleep in the villa until they found the treasure.

What else could Lin Longma do in the face of such a noble spirit of dedication to work? He could only provide logistical support for these two famous detectives.

"You two don't have to be so anxious. The villa is in our hands now. If there is a treasure, it can't escape. After all, health is more important."

Lin Longma raised his wine glass and advised Da Shang Zhu Shan and Qian Jian Jiang Dai.

These two really concentrated on the secret code after entering the Dusk Villa. After using their brains intensively, they both looked a little haggard.

Especially old lady Senken Kyoudai, she is already at this age, don’t let anything happen to her because of Karasuma Renya’s treasure.

It was not a loss at all for Lin Longma to purchase the Dusk Villa for US$8 million. He could even make a profit of US$ or million by selling it to the Suzuki family.

In this case, the treasure is obviously not as necessary to Lin Ryoma as it is to the two veteran detectives, so Lin Ryoma naturally cares about the health of these two.

"Don't worry, President. We know what's going on. But my father is buried here after all, and I will always feel uneasy if the code is not solved."

Chijian Jiangdai accepted Lin Longma's kindness with a smile, then raised his glass to Lin Longma.

Lin Longma didn't want to continue discussing this heavy topic, mainly because he didn't have a father, and he and Qianjian Jiangdai really had no common topics, so he could only ask another question:
"By the way, I was walking around the annex and suddenly had a question. I wonder if you two could answer it for me?"

"Oh? President, just ask me. I will tell you everything I know!"
