September 1 of this year is exactly the 210th day from the beginning of spring. In Japan, there are often typhoons on this day.Fortunately, this year's day passed without incident. It was at about nine o'clock that night, in the consulting room of a surgeon named Ogata in Shibatakanawa, Tokyo, an uninvited visitor came and anxiously told the nurse who received him that someone was injured and would like to treat him. Sir, go for a diagnosis and treatment.So, Dr. Ogata met him directly. This man was about thirty years old, and his clothes were not shabby, but he had obvious extremely squinted eyes.

"You said you were injured, what kind of injury is it?" To Dr. Ogata's interrogation, the squint-eyed man replied hesitantly: "This... because the weapon suddenly went off fire, and the bullet hit the chest..." "Is the weapon in question a gun? Or..." "It's a shotgun." "So, what about the bullets? . . . " "The bullet is still in the chest..." "So, the condition is very critical!" "Yes, if you don't treat it quickly, I'm afraid it will be life-threatening." "Of course the patient is a man, what is his age and name?"

"Age...Because I'm also a servant, so I'm not sure, maybe between thirty-five and forty years old. My name...is Gu Liu..." "Gu Liu?...As for Gu Liu, there used to be a Baron Gu Liu who lived near here, is he a relative?" "No... no, not a Baron at all." Although the squint-eyed man showed an extremely flustered expression, Dr. Ogata didn't notice it. "Really! Because the name is very novel, so just ask casually... Also, where is the address?" "In Iraqi." It was said that it was Isanko, and it was not too far from Takanawa. However, it was already late at night, and this squint-eyed person was a strange and uninvited visitor. Doctor Ogata hesitated, and said:

"Aren't there many doctors on the way from Iwanezi to here?" "I know this too, but how should I put it...I'm always a little worried about other doctors...Besides, the patient has repeatedly told me that I must invite my husband." "So, that person knows me?" "Yes, it is said that I have troubled Mr. Long ago." After what the squint-eyed man said, Dr. Ogata was relieved and decided to go for diagnosis and treatment. "Really! Then let's go, please wait a moment, I will prepare." Dr. Ogata is a very warm-hearted person, and it is well known that he seldom refuses a patient's request.After he was ready, he walked out.Squint said:

"Thank you very much, so that the master will not say that I can't do business. Please, the car is waiting outside..." However, before getting into the car for five minutes, the squint-eyed man made a strange request: "I'm so sorry, sir, but please put this on." "what?……" The squinting guy took out a piece of black velvet cloth. "Hey hey hey, please use this to cover your eyes, because it is inconvenient for you to know where you are going." Ogata couldn't help being stunned. "So, the Yizizi you mentioned..." "That's not the truth. I don't want to say anything bad, sir. Please do as I say. Otherwise..."

A very hard object was pressed tightly against Dr. Ogata's waist, which looked like a pistol. "I was fooled by you... I was deceived!..." Doctor Ogata couldn't help getting angry; but there was nothing he could do now.It's useless to struggle any longer, otherwise it will be nothing but death. "I'm really sorry for doing such a disrespectful thing to you. It's all because of various unavoidable things. Please forgive me....Hey, driver, just follow the instructions!" "Know it!" The driver of the car made a sound like a circus Hercules shouting.He shook his shoulder like a hill, turned the steering wheel, and the car suddenly accelerated and ran.

Dr. Ogata, who was blindfolded, couldn't tell where he ran.The car ran through the streets and alleys in the city of Tokyo. After about half an hour of fast driving, it seemed that it had finally arrived at its destination.After the car stopped, it honked its horn three times, only to hear the sound of a door opening in front, which sounded like an iron door from the rattling sound of iron. "Hey, watch out, don't make any noise!" After the car drove into the gate, it drove slowly for about 20 meters. "Sir, please get out of the car. Hey, that's not okay, the blindfold can't be taken off just yet. You can't take it off without my permission..."

When Dr. Ogata got off the bus and stood there, a bell that shook the night sky came: when! --when! --when! —— The bell was particularly loud, it was the church bell, and it seemed to be nearby. Dr. Ogata was puzzled when he heard this voice, and stopped there blankly.The squint-eyed boy panicked and cursed: "Damn, what clock is ringing at this time! Sir, please come in!" Slanting Eyes took Doctor Ogata's hand and dragged him into the main entrance.The moment he entered the door, Dr. Ogata smelled a musty smell that hit his nose. This musty smell meant that this was an empty house, or a house that had been left unoccupied for a long time.

"Sir, please!" Dr. Ogata was dragged into a long corridor by squinting eyes, but the smell of mold became stronger as he walked.The corridor seemed to be very long, and after turning two or three corners, I arrived at the house I was going to go to.Squinting knocked on the door a few times. "Come in!" A low voice came from inside the house. Slanting Eyes took Doctor Ogata's hand, and as soon as he entered the room, the door behind him was closed tightly. "Well, sir, take off the blindfold, please!" Dr. Ogata took off the blindfold and looked around the room, which made his heart jump with fear.

It was a fairly spacious room.The ceiling is also high, with dazzling chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling.Despite being such a large room, it was empty.No matter the walls or the floor, there was almost no decent decoration, and the room was chilly, which made him feel more and more that this was an empty house that had not been lived in for a long time. However, the bed in the corner of the room was very beautiful and elegant, which was somewhat out of proportion to the empty house.It was a luxurious bed with a canopy and thick curtains hanging around it, like a foreign king.However, it wasn't these things that Dr. Ogata found so ghastly; it was the person standing by the bed, what a tiny little bastard he was!

Doctor Ogata was really stunned, Xiao Xiaozi bowed in awe and said: "Sir, you have worked hard, so please show me!" Only then did Doctor Ogata calm down, and when he walked to the bedside, Xiao Xiaozi opened the curtain with a snap.Inside the curtain lay a man.But his whole body was tightly covered with a black cloth.Just as Dr. Ogata was about to remove the black cloth, his wrist was firmly held down by Xiao Xiaozi. "Don't uncover it, don't look at his face. Just expose the wound...you can diagnose and treat it!" Xiao Xiaozi showed a ferocious look.Dr. Ogata was terrified and said nothing. Xiao Xiaozi lifted one end of the cloth and exposed the patient's chest.When Doctor Ogata saw it, he shivered again in fright. Ah, what a dreadful body!The chest was extremely sunken, and there was a piece of golden hair growing on the reddish-brown skin. The hardness of the skin seemed to be condensed by refining rosin.The wound was on the right chest, the surrounding muscles were swollen, and the gun holes were somewhat blocked. "When did you get hurt?" Dr. Ogata tried his best to suppress his uneasiness and fear, and finally asked for an interrogation. "It was the 29th of last month...due to various reasons, I didn't have time to treat it...and I was a little overworked, so I had a fever..." Indeed, the patient appeared to have fallen into a coma due to a severe fever. "In short, let's do the surgery first. If you wait another day, it's really hopeless..." "Sir, can the operation be saved now?" "It depends on the outcome of the surgery..." The operation was completed quickly, and within half an hour, the bullet was pulled out, sterilized and stuffed into a medical cloth. "It's really dangerous. If you get another two or three per cent, you won't be able to save it. Besides, this person's physique is really strong enough." Dr. Ogata wished he could leave this gloomy house immediately, so after washing his hands, he began to tidy up the doctor, saying: "Then, I'll come back tomorrow!" However, the squinting boy suddenly stood in front of the door, spreading his feet to block it. "Sir, that's not okay. Because you can't pick you up every time. If you need anything, you can write to the nurse, and we will send someone to get it for you. In short, you can't wait until the patient is cured." out of here..." Squinting played with the pistol with his hand, and let out a grin.Next to him stood the big and thick car driver. In this way, Dr. Ogata finally became a prisoner of this gloomy family. Dr. Ogata was under house arrest in this home for a whole week.Later, the patient's condition improved.Then one night, he was sent back by car again.Of course, it is still both mysterious and terrifying. When we parted, squinting and said unceremoniously: "You are never allowed to tell anyone about this matter. If you tell, what will happen...you should think about it carefully." Dr. Ogata is a very upright person, and he thought about some threats from the squint-eyed people all night.He thought: If this matter is related to some kind of improper behavior, it should not be concealed.So at noon the next day, I finally mustered up the courage to report to the Metropolitan Police Department. The person who received Dr. Ogata in the Metropolitan Police Department was a well-known police department (senior criminal police officer) named Bodoli. "So you never saw the patient's face?" Doctor Ogata's conversation aroused great interest from the police department. He leaned out of his chair and asked. Dr. Ogata shook his head and said regretfully: "Hey, I tried my best to see it, but because of their precautions, I couldn't see the patient's face." "Then you have no recollection of the location of that house?" "No, there are a few suspicious things. That is, on the night when I was first taken there, I heard the sound of a bell ringing very close. I always feel that this bell sounds familiar." After hearing this, the police department leaned forward again. "You said it sounds familiar? Specifically..." "Near my residence, there is a Takanawa Church, which is a Christian church. Every morning and evening, the bell is ringing. I think the bell I heard that day is exactly the same as the bell of this church..." After hearing this, the police department clapped their hands on the table and said if they realized something: "Ah, got it! You mean the house is right next to yours. They drove you around in the car, and you ended up where you came from, didn't you?" "Yes, that's what it means." "According to you, it looks like a rather large western-style house. Then, is there such a house near your house?" "This... I have also thought about it, maybe it is the residence of Baron Guruo." "Baron Guliu!?" "Yes, Gu Liu's name was also revealed from Slant Eye's mouth. The Baron's House has been vacant since three years ago, so there is no better place to serve as an underground hideout for villains." "Wait a minute, you mean the one who came to pick you up is a squint-eyed boy, and the one who takes care of the patients is a little boy..." After asking the doctor about the situation, the police suddenly fell silent. Doctor Ogata seemed to remember something again, and said: "Yes, yes, remember, and forgot the most important thing. When they came back, they gave such a thing. The little boy said. 'I wanted to give you cash, but it happens that I don't have any cash at the moment. , please accept this'... I declined, but he forced this thing to me..." What Dr. Ogata took out from his pocket was a small velvet brocade box.Open it with a click, and there is a big bright and dazzling diamond inside. The police department let out an "Ah!" and took a breath. "Originally, I thought it was a fake. Just to be on the safe side, I went to a gem shop on the way here. After their appraisal results, it was confirmed that it was completely real. It is said that it is estimated at the current price. It’s worth tens of millions of dollars, so I’m surprised.” After Dr. Ogata finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. The police department looked at the diamond intently, and didn't know what he thought of, so they called their subordinates and whispered a few words.After the subordinates went out, they brought back a large ledger and a large magnifying glass in a short time.The police department flicked through the pages, and suddenly said: "Yes, yes!" His finger was pointing to a photograph of a diamond.It details the size, weight and characteristics of the diamond.The police department used a magnifying glass to check the diamond again, and compared it with the diamond in the photo, then took a deep breath and said: "Well, it really is this!" Then he said to Doctor Ogata: "Mr. Ogata, you have provided us with very useful clues, which may help us solve a major case. Please keep this diamond with us for a while, but maybe it may no longer be yours .” "It's okay, I'm not the greedy type." After a while, Doctor Ogata left the Metropolitan Police Department.But when he was not far away, a person approached unceremoniously and whispered: "Sir, please get in the car!" "what?" Doctor Ogata looked back and couldn't help being stunned.It was the squint that came from behind him.The muzzle of the pistol was already on his body from his pocket. "Hey hey hey, I won't talk nonsense anymore, just get in the car obediently, this is your punishment for breaking your promise." Doctor Ogata was already pale with fright. This is outrageous!A squint-eyed person dared to rob a person in broad daylight and in front of the police station! On the high hill of Lixue in Azabu District, there is a small but solid bungalow.Although it is not particularly conspicuous, people nearby have a special respect for the owner of this bungalow. This is because a well-known Dr. Shingo Oyamada lives in this bungalow. Dr. Koyamada is a physicist.Although he is famous as a physicist, what makes this doctor famous all over the world is that he has a peculiar hobby, that is, he loves detectives.It is true that everyone has various hobbies, but the doctor prefers detectives. It cannot but be said that he is unique among famous people. Although being a detective was his hobby, he didn't want to make money from it, or make a career out of it. Speaking of which, a long time ago, a strange case happened in the society. The doctor saw through the truth immediately after reading about it in the newspaper.Just when the Metropolitan Police Department was at a loss, he provided his opinion to the Metropolitan Police Department. Sure enough, according to the clues he provided, the case was investigated and the criminal was caught. Since then, whenever the Metropolitan Police Department has any difficult cases to solve, it will come to the doctor for consultation, and the doctor will try his best to help.At some point, the doctor became a voluntary consultant of the Metropolitan Police Department.In this way, the reputation of a famous detective becomes more famous than that of a physicist. As long as Mr. Lixie is mentioned, almost everyone knows it. Especially in the case of Baron Gu Liu, it was almost solved by the doctor alone, so the reputation of the doctor spread all over the world.The reason why Dr. Oyamada exerted so much power in this case is also because Baron Xiayan, who was killed by Dongyan, was his close friend. The doctor has always been skeptical about the death of his close friend and the disappearance of his only son Ryuhiko. After more than two years of racking his brains and painstaking efforts to solve the problem, he finally found out the various crimes committed by Baron Fuyuhiko Fuyanagi. Report to Metropolitan Police.In the end, the villainous Baron Guliu was arrested and sentenced to death.But there is one thing that still haunts him to this day.That is, Baron Gu Liu was executed without knowing Long Yan's whereabouts. Therefore, there is still no news about Long Yan.Dr. Koyamada continued to investigate Longyan's whereabouts after the death of Baron Guliu, but he has not been found so far, and he is not even clear about his life and death, so he feels deeply guilty. Dr. Koyamada is now fifty years old. Although his temples are grizzled, his face is ruddy. He has a childlike face and always smiles on his face, making those villains who do evil things hard to believe that he is a formidable famous detective. His wife died the year before last, and there are only two children around him, one named Shiro and the other named Miyoko.As mentioned earlier about Shiro, Miyoko is thirteen years old this year, the same age as Fatty.In addition, there is a grandma and a servant, Qing.Due to the small population in the family and the loneliness, Kyosuke and Fatty were adopted at home. Let’s say that on the night when Dr. Ogata visited the police station, when the doctor was studying physics in his study, the doorbell rang.The doctor stood up immediately when he heard the doorbell, and turned the switch beside him.At this time, a fluorescent screen about 40 centimeters high and 50 centimeters wide was placed on the table to clearly display the gate. After the servant opened the door, it was the Waiting Force Police Department who walked in.The doctor saw on the screen that he was waiting for the police department, so he turned on another switch with confidence, and at the same time a small blue light bulb on the gate also turned on.After the doctor saw all the situation correctly, he turned the two switches to death. In this way, first the small electric light on the gate went out, and then the shadow reflected on the fluorescent screen also disappeared. Dr. always takes these measures with visiting guests, just in case.This is because for a doctor with such a special hobby, he might be assassinated at some point.It is said that in addition to these devices, there are various other mechanisms installed in the doctor's mansion.Regarding the situation in this regard, I will talk about it one by one when I have the opportunity below. Not long after, the doctor sat in the living room face to face with the Waiting Force Police Department. "Ah, wait for the police department, did you bring any unsolvable cases?" Dr. Koyamada asked with a smile on his face. Dr. Oyamada and the Waiting Force Police Department are old acquaintances. "Yes, I'm here to use your wisdom again. But, haven't the young masters come back yet?" "Well, I haven't come back yet. These children are really helpless. The school has started and there is no news yet. They must be fascinated by the game! Hahaha!" The doctor is an open-minded person who can think through everything, so even if Shiro didn't hear from him for the time being, he didn't care too much about it. Even so, today is already September 7th. Counting from August 29th in Baron Island, it has been ten days in Bajing, and the situation of the three of them is unknown. "I said, wait a minute, Mr. Li, what is the case you want to talk about today?" "Sir, please look at this first." The police department took out the diamond.Dr. Koyamada took it over and looked at it for a while and said: "Well, this is really a precious diamond. Wait a minute, Mr. Li, what's going on?..." "Sir, this diamond originally belonged to Mrs. Yamazaki Foreign Minister, and it has been missing since it was stolen by Baron Koyanagi five years ago..." When Dr. Koyamada heard this, he seemed to be taken aback, moved his body and sat down on the chair again. "Wait, Mr. Li, so today is the first time that one of those diamonds stolen by Baron Gu Liu was discovered! Where did you find it?..." "Sir, now I find a very strange thing." So, the police department told the doctor everything about Dr. Ogata. "Sir, what's worth noting here is that the squint-eyed boy and the little bastard that Dr. Ogata mentioned, I think you still remember, there was a guy who did bad things under Baron Guliu, his name was Hiruchi, this People are extremely squinting. Also, among the baron's servants, there is a little girl named Otomaru..." "Hmm, um. So, the baron's former subordinates discovered his hidden treasure, so they used the baron's mansion as a hideout to plan something bad?" "No, if it was just this situation, I wouldn't be so worried, but what worries me is the patient treated by Dr. Ogata. Who is this guy? According to Dr. Ogata, what he said The little scorpion I saw was like a dog treating its master. It served the patient with all its heart. Who else could Otomaru serve with such sincerity except Baron Koyanagi? So, yes is either or……" "You are talking nonsense! Baron Gu Liu was sentenced to death, didn't he leave this world long ago?" "The person is dead. Have you forgotten that Baron Gu Liu publicly threatened before he was executed: 'We must re-live in this society within three years and take revenge on this society'?" After the police department finished speaking, they shrank back with an expression of uneasiness.Seeing this, Dr. Oyamada laughed loudly and said: "Hey, hey, wait Li-jun! I think your mind is a little abnormal tonight? No matter how great a scholar Baron Guliu is, can a dead person be born again? But..." Dr. Oyamada suddenly said seriously: "It's good news that Baron Guliu's diamond was discovered. So that person may be able to know Long Yan's whereabouts. Wait a minute, Mr. Li, can I intervene in this case?" "Oh, thank God! I was just waiting for your words! Now we want to check the old house of Baron Guliu. Sir, are you also interested?" "Okay! Then, please wait a moment." When the doctor was ready to go, a cute girl in a sailor uniform ran out from the back room. This is Miyoko, whom Dr. Oyamada loves like the jewel in his palm. "Father! Where are you going?" "Ah, Miyoko, Dad will come back soon after going out, you, Grandma and Qing, take good care of the house!" "I'm not! This is too lonely, my brother and the others are not at home, it's too boring!" Miyoko, who is usually very obedient, is entangled with people only this night.Could this be an omen of something? "What's the matter with you today, Miyoko? Aren't you very obedient? Don't worry, I'll be right back. Then, grandma, take good care of me." Dr. Oyamada got into the car after giving instructions.As soon as the car drove away, a telegram came. well!If Dr. Oyamada had read this telegram earlier, he would have made arrangements for his family after he left, but...how could he have thought that the content of this telegram would be like this: "Baron Guliu has been resurrected, please be safe. Shiro"
