| Volume 16 File 6: � The meeting.� Ran: The elusive 1412? Sonoko: Yeah! Everybody�s talking about it! Your dad�s a detective, and you don�t know anything about it? Ran: That doesn�t make me a fan about mystery stuff! What do I have to understand? That you want my father to capture this thief�? Sonoko: Exactly! Right now, the museum Beika is exposing the most beautiful jewels in the world. You know about it, right? My father wants to protect his jewel that he lent to the museum! Its name is: � The Black Star�. Ran: You know, the police is able to protect it! They don�t need my father� Sonoko: If the police catch him, they�ll put him to jail. That�s all. But if it�s your father, maybe we�ll finally see his face!! Ran: His face�? Sonoko: The elusive 1412 is probably the greatest thief of the planet! Aren�t you curious to know his face?! Maybe he�s a cutie! Ran: Yeah, maybe� Sonoko: a �Matt Damon� or a �Harrison ford� or maybe a �brad Pitt�� Ran: But�SHINICHI !!! Shinichi!! Sonoko: HEY! The light is red!! Ran: But he was here! Shinichi was here!! Sonoko: What? Ran: SHINICHI !!! Conan: What? You saw Shinichi in Shibuya?! Yeah, whatever� Ran: But it�s true! He didn�t even talked to me! It�s disgusting, isn�t it? Conan: First, I didn�t go to Shibuya�Secondly, my body�s still the same� Kogoro: Pfff! He let you down, that�s it! Do the same thing! This little pretentious detective�. Ran: Yes�and I think he was with another girl� Conan: You confused him with another guy! Yeah, it was another guy! Ran: � Conan: Huh? What? Kogoro: Let�s talk about the story about the thief ! Is it true? That we want me to capture this thief�? Ran: Elusive 1412! Kogoro: What�s the number �1412��? Ran: I don�t really know where it�s from� Ran: According to Sonoko, it�s a great thief that travels around the world in order to steal jewels and treasures�.It seems that �1412� has been given by the CIA, the FBI, Interpol�etc. It was a secret code, but there was a leak, and everybody knows about it� Conan: Whatever� Ran: But it seems that he has another name in Japan� Kogoro: It�s so simple�1412 = � Fourteen minus twelve = 2 = double�so �the one who always doubles the police�� Ran: I don�t think it is the explanation� Conan: Hmm�Thieves don�t interests me�I�m going to bed� Ran: Oh! Sonoko gave me a copy of a strange message her father received from the Elusive 1412� Kogoro: A strange message? Ran: But I don�t understand the meaning behind it� Looks like a coded message� Message: �Fool�s day. When the moon will divide two persons under the black star, I will be pushed by the wave, and I will come to see you.�� Kogoro: The Elusive�? The paper is torn, and we can�t read it� Ran: I know, but when he received this message, Sonoko�s father became furious and tore it apart�they tried to glue it, but� Kogoro: but I still don�t understand this text�all I understand is �fool�s day�, so he will probably come the 1st of April�What? I thought you went to bed? Ran: Conan? Conan?! 31st of March. Beika museum. 1:42 pm Conan: (yawn) In the end, I didn�t understand it� Sonoko�s father: Ah�Detective Mouri�Thank you so much for coming� Sonoko�s father: I am infinitely grateful for accepting my daughter�s request! With you by our side, we have the power of 100 men!!! Kogoro: Oh come on! It�s only a common thief!! I�ll do my best to stop him! Ooh! So this is the most famous black pearl of the planet�It�s the �Black Star�!! Sonoko�s father: Yes. Since my grandfather bought this jewel�The Suzuki only had prosperity! Kogoro: Really�Anyway, if you put it here, nobody can�t miss it�and the opening is tomorrow� Sonoko�s father: Yes� The day was easy to decipher from the message�That�s why, from tonight, guards are going to be here�From where, when, how he�s going to do it, we don�t know� Inspector Chiyaki: The river! THE RIVER!! Inspector Chiyaki: The elusive 1412 will come by the river Teimuzu which is near here! The guards of the river will be all along it!! Sonoko�s father: You said the river Teimuzu�? Inspector Chiyaki: Yes. The message said: �I will be pushed by the wave�. So he�ll come by water! The only way is the river Teimuzu. Kogoro: Pouf�HA HA HA HA HA!! Inspector Chiyaki: You are �mouri� ancient of section 1, right? Kogoro: I find you rather na�ve, inspector! Inspector Chiyaki: what? Kogoro: you misunderstood: wave = sea; sea = femininity�and STAR�And from tomorrow, our idol from all time, femininity symbol, comes for concerts in the Beika museum. It is Yoko Okino!! Conan: what? Kogoro: I bet that the last song she�ll sing will be �the woman of the moon.� That means that the Elusive 1412 will come by the concert hall in the end of the concert! Conan: Where did he find that? Inspector Chiyaki: yes�it�s possible! Sonoko�s father: How talented you are, Mr. Mouri!! Conan: Hey� oh� Inspector Chiyaki: group c and e! go around the concert room!! Policemen: YES� Conan: EH�I can�t say anything because I didn�t understand this message� Inspector Chiyaki: Where is the new guy? Guy: The inspector? He left with a substitute� Inspector Chiyaki: At this time? What the�? Guy: come on boss! It�s already 2 pm. let�s go eat something�it�s time� Conan: lunch�? The time? But�what if�the sun� Ran: what are you doing conan? Conan: I try to know the direction with my watch�. Ran: The direction? Conan: first, you have to lead the small needle toward the sun�Japan is in the north hemisphere, so the space between the 12 and the small needle is the south� Shinichi taught me that� Ran: oh really� Conan: the south is at 1o� clock�the southeast is at 2:30�?!�Obviously�Let�s meet, elusive 1412!! Conan: Ran, can we go home? Ran: huh? Conan: yeah�it�s boring here�ok I�m going ahead� Conan: he�s weird today�usually, he wants to be in the scene� Ran: thieves don�t interest him� March 31st. 11:04pm Ran: ZZZ�ZZZ/�. Conan: She�s sleeping�yes�I got to phone Pr. Agasa before leaving� Agasa: what? You want me to do some research on The �Elusive 1412�? Conan: Yes, please. you should find them in my father�s files� Agasa: what do you want to do with it? Conan: I�m gonna meet him, so I want some infos before� Agasa: you�re going to see him? Do you know where to find him? Conan: yes�I�m not really sure about the itinerary but� Agasa: so why don�t you talk to the police? Conan: I want to act alone�I�m sending you the message sent by this thief with retro looks� �When the moon will divide two persons�: so the moment where the moon is between a satellite and the sun. it separates them for a short moment. So when the emission of the satellite is stopped!! So between 12:30am and 4:30am!! �Black Star�, so the initials are BS! �I will be pushed by the wave�: so the wave sent by the satellite. It should be the same as the wave sent by the channel BS. The wave sent by BS is from south to east at 45 degrees, above of the horizon line precisely at an angle of 42.3 degrees�if I look at the Beika museum, what do I see? Conan: The �Haido� hotel roof!!!! Driver: Inspector! A child! A child is leading toward the hotel� what do we do? Mysterious inspector: No problem�I know my target�Pff�Supposing it�s him, I can�t see how a child can turn into an adult. Conan: The museum is in that direction�it�s 12:38am�I just have to wait�. Professor? Agasa: Yes. Shinichi, I�ve searched in your father�s files. The newspapers�etc but this 1412 remains mysterious�his first burglary was 18 years ago in Paris�he disappeared ten years later. Some even said he was dead. 8 years later, so this year, he came again and seems to be acting in Japan. Conan: 18 year ago? So he�s not very young�and? Nothing on his personality? Agasa: Lots of adjectives had been used about him: the �arsene lupin of the nineties�� � the magician of the moonlight��but the most popular one is� Conan: Yes? Agasa: a young and smart writer studied on this elusive 1412 that drove the police crazy and, by transforming the number 1412, he got�K. I. D� Conan: Kid? Agasa: So�this elusive 1412�is being called� Agasa: The elusive Kid!! |
