Chapter 209 - Ishikawa Goemon
With large bags and small bags, Qianyu and the others walked into the lobby of the hotel.
They saw familiar people.
Fujiwara, who had just checked in at the front desk, glanced at them and didn't say anything, just handed them a subtle and hidden look.
I've set the stage for you, it's up to you.
Chiba, Conan, and Gray Plains received this signal and turned their gaze to the couch not far away.
The photo shows a girl with long pink hair and a girl with long black hair sitting with another brown-haired boy who looks innocent.
So are they a combination of two boys and two girls? This number ratio is a bit delicate.,I'm afraid it's.。。。
"Here you go." Fujiwara walked over to the couch and handed the two keys to the black-haired girl.
If you give the girl two keys, it's obvious that there are two people who need to live in the room where the key lock can be opened...
If they lived in a male and female manner, then Fujiwara would definitely give the key to the boy.
Since he gave both keys to the girls, it was obvious that the two girls would be living in the same room.
Also, Fujiwara asked them to go there to spy on the two girls while they were soaking in the hot springs, why is that?
Such a completely clueless fantasy is not what Qian Yu is good at, he shook his head and ended this thought.
"Asa!" A man who looked to be about the same age as Dr. Asasa called out when he saw Dr. Asasa who was about to make a phone call.
"Yamamoto!" Dr. Asa immediately walked over with Chiba and the others. "Where's that puppet?"
"These are your little ones?" Yamamoto leaned down and looked at Chiba and the others curiously. ''I remember you were single, right?''
"They're my friends," Dr. Asa explained. "I'll pay for the room."
"You're out of sight," Yamamoto waved his hand. "I'm just curious. Tachibana, you call a few people, go through the formalities of a room, and then take these children and their luggage to that room. By the way, help them get extra mattresses and equipment. ”
"We're going to see Dr. Asasa fix the dolls, too!" Mitsuhiko protested.
“。。。” Yamamoto glanced at Dr. Asasa.
"If not, then I'll let them go back to their rooms." Dr. Asasa said quickly.
"Ahh That was not what I meant. Yamamoto shook his head. If you're not afraid of them bothering you, of course I don't have a problem. ”
。。。
Dr. Asa looked at the cone-shaped object that Yamamoto had given him and looked at it. "That doesn't seem like a problem, can I actually use it and try it?"
"Okay." Yamamoto nodded.
"It looks more like a pointed hat than a doll?" Motota looked at the cone and asked.
"You've taken a closer look~" Dr. Asasa smirked as he led Yamamoto to a hot spring and lowered the cone into the water in a pointed downward motion.
In the surprised gaze of Qian Yu and the others, the flat part of the pointed cone protruding from the water suddenly made a sound, and then a large hole appeared.
A puppet rises from the hole.
"The current water temperature is about 42.3 degrees Celsius, and the sulfur contained in each liter of hot spring water is 52.7 milligrams. The tone of the puppet was very playful, so realistic that a look of surprise had already appeared on Qianyu's face.
"Is this an electronically synthesized sound?" He asked. No matter how you listen to it, the sounds made by the puppets don't look like they are capable of being humans.
"yes," Dr. Asa nodded. "This is a synthesized vocal."
"Has the sound library been refined to this extent?" Qian Yu exclaimed. "It's so vivid!" (Anyway, as of 2015, the world's cutting-edge technology has no way to perfectly restore the tone and tone of a person's speech.) But a Canadian company called Lyrebird has already done just that in 2017. However, in any case, being able to do this in 1994 is definitely a considerable degree of black technology. )
"It can treat skin diseases, arteriosclerosis, rheumatism, neuralgia and cosmetic properties..." The puppet was still talking.
"Doctor, why do I think you're an idol imitating a historical figure?" Conan asked suddenly. "I always felt that this image was familiar."
"Ishikawa Goemon!" Dr. Asa spreads his hands. "After all, when it comes to bathing, Ishikawa Goemon will definitely be mentioned!"
"Uhhh Chiba and Conan twitched the corners of their mouths at the same time. "This..."
"What's wrong?" Gray Plains asked.
"Huh?" Thousand Feathers were surprised. "Ishikawa Goemon!"
"Does he have anything to do with bathing?" Gray Plains tilted his head.
"Uhhh After thinking for a moment, Qian Yu decided to start from the beginning. "Ishikawa Goemon you know who it is, right?"
"Yes," Gray Plains nodded. "Righteous thieves during the Tokugawa shogunate."
"You know how he died?" Qian Yu asked.
"I don't know." Gray Plains shook his head.
"He was caught stealing Toyotomi Hideyoshi's incense burner, and then Toyotomi Hideyoshi took Ishikawa Goemon's... Qian Yu thought about the wording for a moment before continuing. "The ten clans of Ishikawa Goemon are united. He set up three cauldrons, boiled his ten clans to death in front of him, and finally threw him into an iron pot, soaked in slowly heated water, and finally steamed to death. Because of this, bathing in a large iron pot with boiling water is called 'Goemon Bath'" (The Ten Clans are other people who are close to each other in addition to the traditional Nine Clans, and it was Fang Xiaoru who was exterminated in history.) )
"That's too harsh, isn't it?" Gray Yuan frowned. "It's not like Tokugawa Ieyasu is doing something — it's like a madman."
"Toyotomi Hideyoshi, in order to maintain his war of conquest of Korea, constantly collected money from merchants and constantly recruited troops to fight against the Ming-Korean coalition forces in the west. At that time, Japan's system was still relatively backward, and such a high-intensity militarization exceeded what Japan could withstand at that time, which led to a national revolt. At that time, Ishikawa Goemon once assassinated Toyotomi Hideyoshi for this, but it was unsuccessful. Therefore, when Ishikawa Goemon was finally caught, the enraged Toyotomi Hideyoshi would inflict this level of punishment on him. ”
"Goemon is a man with a true samurai spirit!" Mitsuhiko sighed.
"Not necessarily," Chiba shook her head. "The Ishikawa Goemon is said to have appeared on a large scale during the Edo shogunate. And the Edo shogunate itself was committed to discrediting the Toyotomi regime, so whether Ishikawa Goemon was really that great and glorious justice remains to be examined. ”
"Hey, do you smell anything strange?" Ayumi asked suddenly.
There was silence in the hot springs, and then everyone realized that something was wrong.
The puppet was silent, and the smell of burning came from the puppet.
"That's not good!" Shocked, Dr. Asa grabbed the doll's bulbous nose and lifted it up - it was wooden and completely insulated, so even if the doll machine had been short-circuited, it would be fine to touch it.
"Sure enough, there should be something wrong with the waterproof system... Dr. Asasa reasoned. "Caused water to get inside the doll."
