Chapter 1611: The Postcard Mystery

November 23, Wednesday, morning, Dongdu Zoo.

Dr. A Li brought the young detective team over by car, bought tickets and lined up to enter the arena, with one big, five small and six people.

After entering the door, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi looked around according to the appearance that Dr. Ali said, but they didn't know whether to look for more people or see more animals.

The appearance that Dr. A Li mentioned has big eyes, a little freckles on his face, and he always wears his hat very low.

But that was forty years ago, and it was useless to rely on this to find someone.

Conan pondered with the code: "Take a step back and say, 4163 really refers to Mr. Yoichiro, so what's behind it?"

"Hey, look at that." Huiyuan pointed out the nameplate on the animal cage, and there was a number on it.

Conan hurriedly pulled the nearby staff to inquire, and learned that the serial numbers for the animals were numbered by the zoo.

"What is number 33?"

"It's a donkey."

"donkey?"

"An animal with four hooves like a horse."

"That's it, let's go."

Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi heard the words, and immediately ran away muttering.

"Number 33! Donkey! Woman!"

"Slow down." Dr. A Li followed helplessly, what kind of slogan was he shouting.

Conan said helplessly: "Really, it hasn't been completely solved yet."

Huiyuan smiled lightly and said, "They are very motivated now, but I don't know how many of them are helping, and how many are waiting for a good show."...

In front of cage No. 33, a lady in a hat stood there looking at the donkey. She looked good from behind.

However, when he turned his face, the wrinkles on his face startled the Boy Detective Team.

What surprised the five people even more was that she actually greeted Dr. A Li, and Dr. A Li actually stepped forward to talk, which meant that they knew each other.

"Is this old lady..."

"The one with big eyes..."

"Dr. A Li's..."

Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Genta looked at each other.

Haibara said with emotion: "Hey, this is a typical example that time can beautify memories."

Conan pointed out: "Hey, wait a minute, when Doctor was in the sixth grade of primary school, she was in the fourth grade, right? This one looks at least seventy years old."

Dr. A Li came back, "You guys, that was Ms. Noi just now, the owner of that big dog that often barks on that road."

Yuan Tai said: "It turned out to be her."

Ayumi said: "Okay, then let's continue to look for Dr. Ari's first love."

"But, how should I find it next?" Mitsuhiko asked in distress.

"Ah?" Dr. A Li blushed, "No, there is no such thing at all."

Huiyuan smiled and said, "Don't cover up, it's useless to cover up."

Conan laughed and said, "It's all written on your face."

"Ah..." Dr. Ali felt his face was burning. ...

Leading Dr. A Li, the five members of the Boys Detective Team were pondering the code while visiting the zoo. They found a lady with pretty long hair who was looking at her watch and waiting for someone in front of the mole cage.

The homonym of mole is 336, and 0, Conan thinks it means that there is no animal during the day, which refers to nocturnal animals like mole.

Dr. Ali was pushed up by Yuantai and the others to say hello, but when the man turned his head, the bearded female face scared the young detective team back a step, and turned out to be a transsexual.

What's weird is that this person actually knew Dr. A Li,

When Dr. A Li came back, the Detective Boys looked at him with scrutiny.

"That is the child of the Die Ye family who raises hamsters. He was a boy back then. Now, I don't know."

Speaking of this, Dr. Ali also had a toothache.

after,

Everyone went to have lunch, but Dr. A Li went to wash his hands first, which was really surprising. ...

On the other side, Ikebukuro.

Sonoko and Lan finally bought their respective Fusa-e bags, and carried them with satisfaction. One was a shoulder bag worth nearly 2 million yen, and the other was a small handbag worth about 300,000 yen.

Mei Daizi smiled and said, "Let me tell you, Lan, I haven't heard that you like famous brand products before."

"Yeah, I didn't expect you, Lan, to chase famous brands." Sonoko asked, "You don't seem to be a fan of Fusa-e either."

"It's okay," Lan rubbed her bag, "I just remembered a promise I made when I was a child, so I came here."

"Looks like there's still a story, so it's just time for dinner." Yuanzi smiled, and then said to Mei Daizi, "Then you have a treat, we spent a lot of money today, and this happens to be your territory."

"Okay, just take it as a ticket to listen to the story." Mei Daizi smiled, "Then let's go."...

Dongdu Zoo.

While eating lunch, Conan asked Dr. Ali about his love history in detail, and in order to find someone, Dr. Ali also went all out and said everything he could think of.

But forty years ago, what Dr. A Li remembers is accompanying her to school, and he doesn't remember the details.

Huiyuan asked: "I think of a question, doctor, have you been here before?"

Dr. A Li recalled: "No, although she did say that she really wanted to come here, but we haven't had time yet."

Mitsuhiko couldn't help complaining: "Isn't it? Did we find the wrong place from the beginning?"

Yuan Tai complained: "Really, doctor, you should have told us about this earlier."

Dr. A Li said sadly: "I'm sorry, because I saw you working so hard, I don't want to hit you."

"Actually, this is enough. At the very least, you can help me recall this precious memory with her."

"Speaking of which, I actually don't want her to see my bald head. At least for me, keeping such a good memory is enough."

"Doctor..." Ayumi didn't know what to say to comfort her.

Conan encouraged: "Hey, it's not time to give up yet, happiness is sometimes something to fight for."

Hui Yuan said: "That's right, since she said what she said once every ten years, no matter what, you have to try to find her, even if you can't find her today, then look slowly, and if you find her, tell that idiot, You have been waiting for her for forty years."

"Stupid?" Dr. Ali was a little bit dumbfounded, "Don't you need to say that?"

"Of course it's a fool," Huiyuan said angrily, "The Cowherd and Weaver Girl in the sky only meet once a year, but you guys meet every ten years, ha, if you are really capable, you might as well meet once every hundred years .”

Dr. Ali's sweat came down.

Yuan Tai said with a smile: "In that case, it's really stupid."

Ayumi echoed, "That's right."

Mitsuhiko said: "If you meet once a year, maybe you can find it if you look for it."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, doctor, you can continue to think about it," Conan said, "Think about her characteristics, such as why she always wears a hat, and think about her preferences, such as what she often does."

"Wear a hat..." Dr. A Li recalled the hat fluttering in the wind with the ginkgo leaves, and the blond hair, the same color as the ginkgo leaves.

Conan asked, "What did you think of?"

"She wears a hat because her hair is blond," Dr. Ari said.

"Golden?"

"That's a foreigner."

"It's a mixed race."

Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko interjected.

"Understood, she doesn't want to be ridiculed because she has a different hair color from her classmates, so she wears a hat. When I was in the United States, I was also excluded because of my Asian face. I understand that feeling." Haibara said with a smile, "However, the situation in the United States is different from here, where there are clear legal protections against discrimination, so I seized the evidence that those people excluded me, and let them line up to read an apology letter to me one by one."

"It sounds very powerful." Yuan Tai said half-understanding.

"Yes, yes." Mitsuhiko and Ayumi echoed.

"Hey, don't go so far." Conan said dissatisfied, "Let the doctor continue to think."

Dr. A Li scratched his head, "I really can't remember what she likes."

Conan said: "That's it, let's refine it, just like Yuantai, he leaves school every day, saying it is after school, but in fact he has to clean up a bunch of snack shops along the way."

"Yes, yes?" Yuantai was a little embarrassed.

"Yes!" Mitsuhiko and Ayumi laughed.

Conan shattered the time and asked Dr. Ali to speak slowly, saying all the things he could do in the time period he could think of. He didn't care about the specific day, just put it together as if it were the same day.

In the morning, I met near Noi’s house where the dog was raised, and then I went to school all the way, helping out in the school’s animal dormitory, and then went to class, until the afternoon, and then helping out in the school’s animal dormitory, and then went home, halfway to Chono’s house to see the hamsters.

Conan asked: "Is it like this every day?"

Dr. A Li said: "Probably, at first I wanted her to stop being afraid of animals, and then she gradually fell in love with small animals."

"Wait, ha," Ayumi smiled, "I figured it out."

Dr. Ali asked, "What?"

"It's the animal dormitory." Ayumi smiled happily, "That's it."

"4163, 33, 6, 0."

"33 refers to the number of birds such as chickens and pigeons, 6 refers to the number of rabbits, and 4163 refers to Mr. Obata Yoichiro who is related to the animal dormitory."

Mitsuhiko asked, "What about 0?"

Ayumi said sadly: "0 may refer to Mr. Turtle who passed away not long ago." Then said, "But I heard that he was here forty years ago."

Yuan Tai asked: "Shouldn't that be 1?"

Dr. A Li thought for a while and said, "When I was in elementary school, the tortoise was still very energetic, but at that time there were no rabbits, only chickens."

"Ha..." Conan, who was thinking about the code, suddenly laughed.

Huiyuan said angrily: "What are you laughing at, tell me as soon as you know the answer."

"The code is actually very simple, it's the sound of an animal." Conan smiled proudly, "It's just that she is a foreigner, so her habits are somewhat different from ours, so what she wrote can't be solved."

"Wait," Huiyuan wondered, "If you put it that way, 4163, 33, 6 refer to chickens, dogs, and hamsters, so what is 0, a turtle that doesn't bark?"

"No, 0 refers to the place where there is no cry." Conan laughed.

Yuan Tai said: "I don't understand at all."

Mitsuhiko said, "Explain."

Ayumi called her name and said, "Conan, Xiao Ai."

Conan explained the problem of the call. The number refers to the syllable of the call, because there are differences in habits, otherwise you can understand it just by looking at it.

Dr. A Li asked: "The code refers to the place where the cock crows, the place where the dog crows, the mouse, no, the place where the hamster crows and the place where there is no crowing?"

Yuan Tai asked, "Why a hamster?"

Mitsuhiko said: "Because they often go to see hamsters."

Conan asked, "Where is the place where the chicken crows?"

Ayumi said, "Animal dormitory."

"It's the elementary school animal dormitory, the focus is on the elementary school." Conan corrected, and then asked, "Where is the place where the dogs bark?"

Mitsuhiko said, "It's the Noi family."

Conan asked, "Where is the hamster barking?"

Yuan Tai said: "That Die Ye family."

Dr. A Li asked: "Where is the place where there is no cry?"

Conan smiled and said, "Of course it's her family. She hated animals at first, even if she liked them later, it's impossible for her parents to agree to her keeping animals."

Huiyuan asked: "Then what does this mean?"

"Read them together." Conan smiled confidently, "Elementary School, Noi, Chono, Kinoshita."

"Under the ginkgo tree in the elementary school!" Everyone suddenly realized.

"That's right," Conan said with a smile, "That's right there, let's go."...
