Let’s ring in the New Year. Under the waterfalls, I’ll take the rare blue.
Kaito KID
465637 along with the words ring, and from Red, call and text, suggested that these numbers were actually letters.
4 = GHI
6 = MNO
5 = JKL
6 = MNO
3 = DEF
7 = PQRS
Running it through a decoder, one particular word stood out. ‘Holmes’. According to the files, Kaitou KID was also known as the Heisei Lupin. It wouldn’t be too far of a jump to assume that was what Kid was talking about, especially when he called Conan “little detective”.
If it was Holmes, there was one connection that Holmes had to waterfalls, the Reichenbach Falls the place where Holmes met his “supposed” death at one point in time on May 4 1891. Perhaps it was too easy but tonight was 3rd. Adding the “ring the new year” part of the riddle, the only time New Year is run in is midnight.
Kid had planned the heist to go off tonight and not tomorrow and in less than twenty minutes left.
Robin skidded to a stop in the Westchester area of Star City. He had figured out the date and time of the heist but he still didn’t know where and what Kid was planning to steal. Running a hand through his hair, Robin gave a frustrated groan.
Instantly he pulled up a map of Star City and started searching for something that would give him a clue.
“Okay think Robin, Kid likes using layers upon layers of different clues. Things often had duel meaning to them. The location is hidden somewhere in the clues. What do I know? I know the date and the time. ‘Ring in the New Year?’ New Year has fireworks, but I don’t see how that can fit into this. The Reichenbach Falls are located in Switzerland but the hell does Star City have to do with anything Swiss?” Robin muttered to himself.
He drew up a list of places that held precious gems or items that were blue in them.
In Westchester there were one place, the Art History Museum where a painting called Blue Sea was on display and worth over 1 billion. In City Core were the River Hotel and the Sea Bell as well the Star Building where Topaz Clock is was displayed on the front, a gift from resident millionaire Oliver Queen. In Lakeview the National Museum had three, Aquamarine Necklace, the Blue Moonstone Sword, and Spinel encrusted revolver. In Elgin had National Watch Company where there was a blue pearl watch. Lastly in Aurora there was the Northern Lights gem set, the most expensive set of jewels in all of Star City.
“Time’s running out,” Robin grumbled. Then everything clicked into place, realization dawning on him. Once again he took off, praying he would make it there in time and that Red would hold up his end of the deal.
