The next day, it was afternoon when Gao Cheng walked out of the Kyoto Station with his bag. It was said that he had attended a blind date party when he came to Kyoto last time, and then he was involved in the scene killing.

As for this time

Gao Cheng looks at the big garden beside him.

"Why does Suzuki's daughter come with Uncle..."

"Oh, of course, they want to see Kyoto with Xiaolan. It's said that the cherry blossoms here are very beautiful," the garden faltered, avoiding her sight. "Besides, I haven't been to Kyoto since I was so big..."

"Where are the ghosts?"

Uncle Maori calmly looks at the excited Xiaolan, especially Conan who follows Xiaolan.

"Listen, I'm kind enough to bring you here. Don't get in the way of my work these days!"

"Good!"

Conan agreed and looked like a good baby. Seeing that the uncle was beating a drum in his heart, he turned to Gao Cheng and said, "I said, Chenghu boy, are you with us or what should we do?"

Gao Cheng doesn't care: "go to shanneng temple first. Maybe what the other party asked Uncle to investigate has something to do with Genji's firefly."

"Hum," said the uncle, "first say well, and then listen to me."

"No problem."

Outside shanneng temple, two taxis stopped at the door, and Gao Cheng and his uncle got off one after another.

You can see cherry blossoms outside. Listen to the driver's brother, shanneng temple is very famous in the nearby area. The Buddha statues and cherry blossoms in the temple are very popular. Just a few days later, it will be the opening day of the main Buddhist pharmacist, Tathagata Buddha, once every 12 years.

From the entrance of the temple, through the stone road, you can see a group of people talking in the middle of the wide courtyard, including two monks.

"Mr. Maori!" A young monk noticed his uncle and quickly welcomed him. He shook hands with him and said, "thank you for coming all the way. I'm Longyuan who contacted you, and this is Yuanhai, the abbot of the temple..."

The old monk who followed him made a salute with his hands together.

"These three are the benefactors of our temple," the young monk long yuan continued to introduce other visitors. "Mr. yingzhengzao is an ancient art merchant. He runs an antique shop on Siding road. Next to him is Mr. chuntaro Shuiwei, the young master of Neng opera, and finally Mr. xitiaodahe, who runs a second-hand bookstore."

Sakura Cheng, an ancient art businessman, was introduced. She was broad and fat, wearing glasses, and the fat on her face revealed the smooth flavor of the businessman. She complimented uncle Maori casually, but the two nearby were neither sought after nor indifferent.

The young master of shuitailu is a young man with short and medium hair. He wears a kimono and nods gently to Uncle Maori, which is quite childish. The owner of a second-hand bookstore called xitiaohe looks like a nerd with a long thin face and a pair of round glasses. He looks most amiable.

"Hello, please give me more advice."

"Ha ha," the old monk said with a smile, "we are all good friends in kendo rather than benefactor."

"You are all practicing Kendo," Uncle Maori said in surprise. "No wonder the abbot is so strong."

"Kendo?"

Gao Cheng stands behind and doesn't mean to introduce himself. He just can't help thinking about it.

The killer this time is a master of kendo. Maybe Kyoto can find something. After all, compared with Tokyo and Osaka, Kyoto has the deepest traditional flavor, including Kendo inheritance.

Sometimes there is even a feeling of going back to ancient Japan

"Well, Mr. Maori," Long Yuan said voluntarily, "I'll take you to see the situation."

"Not bad."

"That..." the West River looked at Gao Cheng, who passed by. Unexpectedly, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't ask.

"That young man looks a little familiar," Sakura said with a flash of doubt. "Is it Mr. Maori's son-in-law?"

"Maybe..."

"What?" After separating from Sakura zhengzao and others, uncle Maori followed Longyuan into the main hall, "the Buddha has been stolen?"

"Yes, it was eight years ago." Long Yuan opened the niche and revealed the only two Buddha statues left. "The one on the left is the sun Bodhisattva, and the one on the right is the moon Bodhisattva. The pharmacist Tathagata, which was originally placed in the middle, was stolen... At the beginning, I was supposed to call the police immediately, but was stopped by the abbot. He said that if it was fate, Maybe one day I can meet the pharmacist Buddha again. "

"He really wants to go," Uncle Maori could not make complaints about. "But the day after tomorrow, will the general public visit? If we want to find the Buddha statue that has been missing for eight years in the past few days, this is also... "

Long Yuan led the crowd to the side hall Zen room and handed a letter without stamps to his uncle: "in fact, just five days ago, I found a letter in the mailbox of the temple."

"I didn't put stamps on it, and I didn't write who the sender was, pretending to be a ghost..."

Uncle Maori opened the envelope and took out two pieces of writing paper from it. On the top, it said, "as long as you solve the mystery of this painting, you will know where the Buddha statue is." on the bottom, there are some strange things painted. By the way, he also presented the original photo of the pharmacist Tathagata Buddha.

"What is this painting about?" As long Yuan went out after pouring tea, uncle frowned and put it in front of Gao Cheng“ Chenghu boy, what do you think? "“ Come on, uncle, I have a headache about the secret code... "Gao Cheng looks at the paper with his eyelids down. On the whole, it looks like the steps of the doll shelf on daughter's day. The top five layers are painted with red cicadas, green tengou and red goldfish. The fourth layer is painted with yellow chicken and yellow loach, with an ink dot beside it. Next, between the second and third floors, there are violet, green dog and purple Mount Fuji, and there is an acorn outside. The one who stole the Buddha statue from shanneng temple at that time was probably the Genji firefly, but why did he send such a letter eight years later? Gao Cheng muttered in his heart. I don't know if it's related to the recent murders... The garden approached and said, "the loach is still painted yellow. It's disgusting to look at it..." "it's hard to understand," Xiao Lan worried, "Dad, can you really find the Buddha before the day after tomorrow?"“ Well, "Uncle Maori said, sweating and brazenly," you don't have to worry. This kind of puzzle will be solved by your father! Er, I said Chenghu, aren't you going to investigate the Genji firefly case? I don't think the case of the missing Buddha statue has anything to do with them. I'll take you with me. " Gao Cheng has black lines all over his head. "To be honest, I still don't understand," Gao Cheng said to the outside of the Zen room. "How can the monks of shanneng Temple come all the way to find uncle? Should Kyoto's service department be famous? And that guy doesn't charge commission fees all the time... "" Hey, what's the point? " Uncle Maori said with a smile, "how can that hairy boy compare with me, the first detective in Japan?"“ Ha ha... "Gao Cheng and Xiao AI, who is beside him and tea, look at each other“ Speaking of the service department, "Xiao Lan suddenly remembered," before I came here, I talked to ye on the phone. She said that she could take us to visit Kyoto tomorrow... "Conan raised his head and asked," will the service department brother come too? "“ Well, she has something to do with the persuading department. She may not come“ It's good that the cursed guy doesn't come, "Uncle Maori said, staring at the drawing paper and waving his hand." you guys will go out for a walk tomorrow, and I'll be the expert to investigate... And the Chenghu boy. " Gao Cheng looks helplessly at the silent Conan. I don't know whether uncle wants to help himself or just find some comfort. Anyway, he is confused about the mystery of painting. It seems that Conan has no idea“ Uncle, "Gao Cheng suggested," do you want to ask someone who is familiar with Kyoto? If it's the gang who stole the Buddha's statue, it may be related to Yijing or bianqing. " Uncle Maoli browed and touched his chin to study the drawing again: "that's reasonable. Let's go to Kyoto tomorrow to look for it. Maybe it's a treasure map... Ha ha, I'm so smart!"
