Chapter 130: The Murder of a Luxury Cruise Ship (Finale)
"I just sat for a long time and wanted to go to the toilet and wash my face. But when I was halfway there, the lights on the whole ship suddenly went out. Just when I was confused, I seemed to hear Xia Jiang's screams coming from the women's toilet over there. β
"Just as I was running in that direction, to see what was happening, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from in front of me, and a figure suddenly rushed out of the corner of the hallway. Since there was no light at the time, I couldn't see who that person was. β
"However, what I didn't expect was that person actually took out a knife and stabbed me without saying a word!"
"I didn't react at once, I didn't have time to dodge, and he stabbed me in the thigh. That man didn't want to stab me to death, but when you heard my voice and ran over, he gave up on me and ran away......"
In the restaurant. Ichiro Kinamoto, who was helped by his parents to sit down, endured the pain and slowly told his story.
"It must be Xiao Wu!
"It's cruel, why do you do this to my child!"
Seeing Ichiro Shimoto's face that was a little pale because of the pain, Mariko Shimoto and Kitaro Shimoto were both distressed and angry.
"Is it really Xiao Wu, but where is he going to flee to?" Shoji couldn't help but instinctively feel a little strange.
"It must be hiding on this ship, watching us secretly, ready to kill us when we are!"
"Auntie, the Maori detective just said that Brother Xiaowu is not necessarily a ......"
"You're still talking about Xia Jiang now! Grandpa and Long Nan are both dead, and Ichiro is also injured! Apart from him, the son of a brave man in Caicheng, who else has such great malice towards our Rakamoto family? You say, who else could be the murderer!"
"I know who the killer is. β
Just as Mariko Shimoto vented her anger and anxiety to Xia Jiang, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open.
The lights illuminated his straight figure, lit his confident smile, and dispelled the unsettling clouds.
"Really, really! Eagle Arrow!" Hearing this, Xiaolan couldn't help but stand up from the chair in surprise.
"Ah, your father, the sleeping Lord Kogoro has asked me to inform everyone to assemble in Miss Akie's room, and he will unravel the mystery of everything that happened on this cruise ship, and the truth that lies behind it. β
He smiled slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up with great wisdom.
"The mystery has been solved!"
======================================================================
Ten minutes ago. The room of Akie Akimoto.
Conan closed the door to the closet, set the chair in place, and looked at his watch, waiting for the man to arrive.
"Hey, little ghost, what the hell did you call me here?"
"Oh, didn't you know when you came, uncle. β
At this moment, two voices were coming from the hallway, louder and louder.
One is the familiar voice full of wine and stubble, and the other is a voice that is obscene to the point of soliciting customers.
"So, what's so special about this room?"
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Conan hurriedly hid behind the curtains as planned.
"At first glance, this is an ordinary room. But in fact, he's the stage we've carefully prepared!
The eagle at the door couldn't help but make a gesture of invitation to Maori, and led Maori to sit on the chair.
"What stage?" said Maori, who was sitting in his chair, curious, unaware of what was going to happen next.
As he spoke, Conan, who was hiding behind, opened the curtain slightly, opened the mirror of his watch, and aimed his sight at Maori.
[I'm sorry Uncle Maori, you have another pinhole in your neck!This is not the first time, and it won't be the last!]
With such an insincere apology, Conan smiled evilly and pressed the firing button of the tranquilizer gun without hesitation.
With a "snort", the liquid dispersed, and a milky white short needle burst out and inserted straight into Maori's body.
"En~......"
At the moment when the short needle entered his body, Mori was like a robot whose power had been cut off, and he kept talking to the eagle arrow, and fell straight down, slamming his forehead on the table, making a sound that made people feel pain when they heard it.
Tut, fall asleep on the spot, exquisite.
It's the first time that Takaya has really seen Mori enter the whole process of this sleeping Kogoro, and I can't help but feel that the thief is funny.
Especially the uncle's series of confused expression changes, it is really interesting.
But then again, this anesthetic needle is really a terrible black technology, Dr. Asa is really terrible. This kind of side-effect-free anesthetic that falls asleep in one second and doesn't feel anything afterwards is really rebellious, and fortunately only he and Conan have it. If this watch falls into the hands of some fat houses, according to the countless experiences of reading books in previous lives, it will definitely be able to produce a whole series of fan X books......
"Hey, Eagle Arrow, come over here and do me a favor!"
Ahem, what's wrong with the building?
Hearing Conan's immature and pure childlike voice, Takaya quickly put away his evil thoughts, walked over to help Maori's upper body, and after thinking for a while, put Maori in a posture with his head bowed and his hands supporting his chin, looking pensive.
βEmmmβ¦β¦ Conan, why don't you lend me your glasses and put them on for my uncle?"
"Huh? Why?"
"Because this pose wouldn't be perfect without reflective glasses!"
ββ¦β¦ It's time to take your pills, big brother. β
"Oh, then I'll go to sleep, and you can solve the case yourself. β
"Oh, no, at least help me get somebody over! Hey, hey!"
Then, ten minutes later, Eagle Arrow appeared on the stage with the crowd that had been prepared for a long time.
"Mr. Maori, do you really already know who the murderer is?"
"Who the hell is it?"
"It must be Xiao Wu, right?"
When everyone rushed in, he saw Mao Li leaning back in his chair like a commander of Ikari in contemplation, and he couldn't help but ask immediately.
Of course, the questions are still the same few words, and there is no change in the slightest. Especially Mariko Shimoto, who seems to be determined to buckle this basin on Xiao Wu's head, always repeating the words "It's Xiao Wugan, it's Xiao Wugan". The performance of the repeater machine makes people wonder if they are equipped with the brain organ.
"Well, don't be in a hurry to make up your mind, ma'am. Conan also seemed to be amused by Mariko Shimoto's persistence, so he chuckled and continued to hide behind Mori, saying in his voice, "Before revealing who the prisoner is, I would like to ask you to recall the scene when the first corpse was found, that is, when the body of the old man was hidden by Masamoto. I think everyone should be very impressed by this, after all, whether it is the boy of the Yuchai family standing next to me, or Conan, they have explained it to you many times. β
"You mean, the corsage with the word groom on it?"
Shoji couldn't help but remember what Conan said in the restaurant before, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Yes, it's the ribbon. If the corsage was dropped during the attack, the ribbon could get stuck through the crack in the door, but there should be pollen in the room. And if the corsage is dropped during cleaning, then there will really be no pollen in the room, but the ribbon will not be able to get stuck in the crack of the door. Regardless of when the corsage was dropped, that ribbon and the pollen on the scene would be at odds. Therefore, the only conclusion we can draw is that the corsage should not have been there, and was deliberately placed by the murderer to blame Mr. Xiao Wu. β
Takaya took over the words of Maori or Conan, and reinterpreted the contradictions of the corsage.
"Wait, wait, then why is there only a ribbon left at the scene?
Hearing Eagle's words, Akie was stunned for a moment, and then asked the question in his heart.
"Let him explain this. β
"Alright, please come out, Mr. Xiao Wu!"
With that, Conan couldn't help but push his glasses, and then raised his voice.
"Eh, Xiaowu?"
"Could it be that he's here?"
Conan's words startled everyone present, and then he began to look around.
Everyone except Xiaolan and Xia Jiang had uneasiness and panic written on their faces.
Although the Maori detective said that Xiao Wu was not the murderer, he still had a grudge against the Rakmoto family after all, and God knows if he would go on a killing spree at this time!
"Don't worry, it'll be fine, come out, Xiao Wu. β
Feeling that the atmosphere was gradually becoming anxious, Eagle Arrow couldn't help but shake his head helplessly and comforted him.
I don't know if it's against everyone, or against Xiao Wu.
Anyway, a moment after Takaya finished speaking, a soft "crunch" sound sounded in the room.
The wardrobe was gently pushed away by a hand, and Xiao Wu, who had disappeared for a long time, finally appeared in front of everyone again.
"Brother Xiaowu......"
Seeing Xiao Wu appear safely in front of his eyes, Xia Jiang was overjoyed at first, but he stopped in an instant, revealing a complicated look.
After going through this series of events, she no longer knew how to look at him.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao Wu, tell me everything you saw. β
looked at Xia Jiang with a complicated expression, and then looked at Xiao Wu, who wanted to speak and stopped, and the eagle arrow, who couldn't stand it, could only open his mouth and urge.
When the ink goes down like this, a chapter can be drained! Of course, there is absolutely no jealousy in it.
"Before, my grandfather once left me a note telling me to go to his room around 6:30......" Xiao Wu glanced at Hawkya, then at Maori who was leaning over there, and finally glanced around at the people present, and then began to talk about his experience, "But when I walked to the door of the room and knocked on the door according to the time my grandfather said, there was no response. β
"I felt very strange, and when I was about to push the door in, I found that the door was locked and did not move. β
"I started to feel that something was wrong, and at this time, I saw my corsage on the floor......" When Xiao Wu said this, he couldn't help but glance at Xia Jiang, then at Yingya, and then said with a complicated face, "That corsage, which was originally thrown into the trash can by me after the wedding was interrupted." However, I don't know why it's here. β
"And as I crouched down to retrieve my corsage, I smelled a strong smell of blood coming from the crack in the door. On the red carpet at the door, there were still some traces that looked like bloodstains. β
"I began to feel that something was serious, and suddenly realized that the corsage on the ground was probably placed here by someone to blame me, so I couldn't help but quickly reach out and grab the corsage. β
"And at this time, I heard his voice, the footsteps he was approaching......" Xiao Wu raised his head and looked at Yingya, "I, I don't want to be arrested as a suspect, so I can only grab that corsage and run away without looking back......"
"We know what happened up to this point, but since you disappeared from the end of the hallway, you haven't been seen in front of us, it's like you've disappeared. What happened after that, can you tell us about it?"
Listening to Xiao Wuna's uneasiness and fear, Conan couldn't help but raise his head and asked.
This sentence asked the hearts of everyone present, except for a certain person, everyone wanted to know what was going on.
"Okay, Mr. Maori," it seemed that Maori's calm voice gave him courage, Xiao Wu took a deep breath and looked a lot calmer, "Just as I ran around the corner of the corridor and stopped to catch my breath a little, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of my head, as if I had been hit hard by something, and then, I lost consciousness......"
"What?" Hearing his words, everyone present couldn't help but let out a low cry.
This was the first time they had heard Xiao Wu's testimony since the incident, and it filled in some perspectives that they had not seen.
"Hmph, it's just your words, how do we know if what you say is true?"
Seeing Xiao Wu, Qiujiang was really red-eyed, and couldn't help choking him.
After all, she didn't believe that Xiao Wu had worked so hard to infiltrate the Xuanben family, and she really just wanted to marry Xia Jiang.
"I understand your feelings, Miss Akie. But please believe me in my professional ethics as a detective. Conan said into the voice changer, "All of our reasoning so far has been based on ample evidence. Whether it is Mr. Xiao Wu's one-sided words, just look at the back of his head. There, there are still traces of being beaten with blunt objects. β
"Then, it could have been made by himself?" Hearing this, Qiu Jiang was stunned for a moment, and retorted stiffly.
"As long as it's a normal human being, there's no way to use a blunt object to knock out such a mark on the back of your head, Qiu**. At this time, Eagle Ya, who was a rival in love, spoke out to help Xiao Wu clear his suspicions, which made everyone present and even Xiao Wu look at him in surprise.
"Alright, leave me alone, please continue, Mr. Xiao Wu. β
However, in the face of Xiao Wu's gaze, Ying Ya just smiled indifferently, and he didn't see the slightest concern.
"Well, okay, okay," Xiao Wu paused for a moment, and then continued, "When I woke up again, I found that my eyes, hands, and feet were tied, and I seemed to be being dragged and didn't know where to go. I was scared and couldn't help but struggle a little, but I was hit hard again. This time, although I didn't lose consciousness, I didn't dare to move anymore, I just pretended to be unconscious. Because I'm afraid that he will kill me directly, I can only stay still first, and then find a chance to escape......"
After a while, as if reaching my destination, the man stopped dragging me and began to untie the ropes of my feet. However, just as I was trying to run away, I suddenly heard an exclamation, and the man seemed to be taken aback, and seemed to immediately abandon me to chase the man, and I immediately reached out and pulled off the black cloth in front of me, got up from the deck, and ran away in a panic. β
"Wait, wait, this exclaim...... Is it?"
Hearing this, everyone seemed to suddenly understand something, and Akira couldn't help but reach out and cover his mouth.
"Yes, that's right," Maori, or rather Conan, confirms their suspicions, "and that's when the second case happens!"
"This, in this way, the reason why Long Nan died is because of ......" Shoji Shimoto couldn't help but swallow.
"Yes, compared to the first case, when he was holding a murder weapon and cleaning the scene, the scene of the second case was too rough, and it was obvious that this murder was not within the scope of the murderer's expectations. Conan pushed his glasses and continued to explain, "The reason why Mr. Ryuo died was because he saw this scene, so the murderer had to kill him. If it weren't for Mr. Long Nan, it is estimated that the murderer was originally going to throw Mr. Xiao Wu on the lifeboat, and then throw the lifeboat into the sea, so that he would disappear into the sea forever as the murderer of this case......"
"How could it be...... Such a vicious ......" After listening to Maori's narration, Xia Jiang couldn't help but reach out and cover his mouth.
"People who go to extremes can do anything to protect themselves. Eagle Ya couldn't help but reach out and gently pat Xia Jiang's shoulder, and then continued to say to everyone, "However, what the murderer didn't expect was that Mr. Xiao Wu not only did not faint, but also took this opportunity to escape. If it is the murderer who made the first mistake when he was discovered by Mr. Long Nan, then being escaped by Mr. Xiao Wu is the second mistake he made. And these two mistakes, especially this second one, are enough to drive the prisoner to a dead end. β
"Therefore, the prisoner who was extremely panicked when he saw Mr. Xiao Wu escaping, in order to protect himself, had to make a decision in a hurry, that is, to create a darkness, and then in the darkness that no one could see, attack a person first, and then make himself one of the victims!" Conan pushed his glasses and continued, " In this way, it can not only make people think that the murderer is an indiscriminate person who wants to take revenge on the Rakmoto family, but also make people shift their suspicion to Mr. Xiao Wu, who has a family feud, and at the same time make himself one of the victims, so as to successfully eliminate suspicion. β
"What, what?
It was made clear to such an extent that everyone present should have reacted even if it was really a pig brain, and they couldn't help but turn their eyes to the person who had been sweating profusely since the beginning.
"I'm right, the real culprit in this case has been silent since the beginning, Mr. Ichiro Tsunimoto!"
Speaking of this, Conan couldn't help but raise his head and said righteously.
"You are the real culprit who killed Mr. Hirozo and Mr. Ryao Tsuyo Tsubamoto, and created the attack!"
At that moment, it was as if an invisible wind of justice blew out with Conan's words, blowing towards the man who was already sweating profusely in his chair, and blew away his sweat-soaked hair that adhered to his forehead.
Ichiro Shiomoto swallowed, and it seemed that even the air had thinned out a little.
"You, what nonsense are you talking about! Ichiro him, how could Ichiro be a murderer!"
After the initial shock, Mariko had already come to her senses, and she couldn't help but slap the table angrily and scream loudly.
"Don't be in a hurry, ma'am," at this moment of great tension, a flirtatious voice sounded, and Takaya smiled slightly, taking Conan's words, "Since we have made this inference, we will definitely be able to come up with the corresponding evidence." β
"Y-What did you say?" Mariko glared at Hawk as if she was going to tear him apart.
"First of all, let's start with the most obvious thing, and the one you care about the most - death message!"
"Could it be that you've already solved it, that death message?" Hearing Eagle's words, Shoji Shimoto couldn't help but exclaim.
"That's right. With that, Takaya couldn't help but take out two photos from his pocket and put them on the table in front of Maori.
This is a photo he took with a Polaroid from the staff who was in charge of photography at the wedding scene.
"First of all, let's take a look at the second case, which is the case of Mr. Long Nan, the code of 'T'," said Eagleya, who couldn't help but pick up the picture taken on the deck and put it in front of everyone's eyes, "Don't you think it's strange?"
"You say it's weird...... It does seem to be a little unnatural......" Xiaolan stared at the photo, narrowing her eyes slightly.
"But...... What does that mean exactly?" Shoji looked at it for a long time, and frowned suspiciously.
One horizontally from thick to thin, and one vertically from thin to thick, no matter how you look at it, it's a T-shape......
"Mr. Shoji, you can dip your fingers in the water and write a 'T' on the table and you will understand. β
Takaya couldn't help but smile, took a glass of water, and placed it on the table.
"Isn't that what it is...... Huh?" When Shoji handwrote a "T" on the desktop according to what Takaya said, and compared it with the "T" on the photo, the original slight unnaturalness was instantly exposed.
"Understand, when normal people write 'T', they are from left to right, from top to bottom, so the normal pen strength should be from left to right, from top to bottom slowly tapering," said this, Eagle Ya stretched out his finger and pointed to the vertical of the "T" on the photo, "and the 'T' left at the scene, this vertical is just the opposite!"
"In other words......" Akie on the side seemed to understand something.
"In other words, this is a forgery by the prisoner," Conan took Eagle's words, and said, "After the prisoner killed Mr. Ryunan, he then took his finger, held it hard, and slid down, leaving such a thin stroke up and down!"
"So, what Long Nan really wants to write down is ......" Qiu Jiang couldn't help but reach out and cover his mouth.
"Yes, it's just the word 'one'," Taka couldn't help but turn his gaze to Ichiro Shimoto, who was sitting in a chair with his fists clenched, and said with a sneer, "Mr. Ichiro, you are really quick-witted. In a series of emergency situations that are unfavorable to you, such as being discovered by Mr. Long Nan, killing him, and being written a death message by him, you can still think so calmly. With the 'H' left by the old man, the 'one' left by Mr. Long Nan was added, thus turning it into a 'T' character, and once again leading the suspicion to the name 'H.Β· T's me and Mr. Xiao Wu's head!
After saying that, Takaya couldn't help but glance at Mariko Shimoto, a middle-aged fool who was completely guided by her own son.
"I don't know what you're talking about......" Ichiro suddenly relaxed his fists and smiled fearlessly.
"Yes, yes, all of this is just your guess, and that 'one' may have been written there by someone else to blame Ichiro!" Mariko Shimoto, who reacted, couldn't help but immediately start protecting her son, "Besides, didn't Dad also write an 'H', what's going on with that 'H'?"
"Don't worry, I'm not just about to talk about it," Taka put down T's photo and picked up the H photo from the table, "Regarding this 'H', in fact, the situation is similar to that of Mr. Ryao. The reason why we have never figured out what this letter represents is because due to the later copying, which obscures the true meaning that the old man wants to express. β
"You, what are you talking about, but didn't you say before that the old man's room is a secret room?" Qiu Jiang said in disbelief.
"yes, I said that. Takaya nodded, giving her an affirmative smile.
"Then you're alsoβ" Akie stopped talking halfway through his words, and looked at the eagle in front of him in disbelief.
"It seems that you have already guessed it, Qiu**," Eagle Arrow put away his smile and said seriously, "That's right, there is a person who does not need to enter and exit this secret room, and also copy the message left by the old man." And that person is the old man himself!"
"What, is it grandpa himself, copying the message he left behind?" Hearing this, Xia Jiang couldn't help but cover his mouth in surprise, "But, grandpa, why did he do this? Could it be that he regretted it in order to protect Ichiro?"
"Ahem, Xia Jiang, your idea is very beautiful, but I don't think the old man is noble enough to that extent......" Eagle Ya couldn't help wiping his sweat, and then took out another photo from his arms, "Actually, things are very simple, you can just look at this photo." β
"It's ...... Father's hand?" Shoji couldn't help but take the picture.
The photo shows the right hand of the Zomoto Collection. As if he had used it to cover his wound before, his palms were already full of blood, and even a few fingers were stained with a little bright red. Among them, the blood stains on the middle finger and index finger looked as if they had been wiped by something.
"Ahh
"Yes, it's actually very simple," Taka explained to everyone as he put the H photo and the hand photo together, "The old man didn't write an 'H', but just wrote a 'one' just like Mr. Ryuo." It's just that after writing this word, perhaps because of pain, or perhaps because of unwillingness, the old man grabbed the carpet hard before he died, and his index and middle fingers shrank slightly, leaving two vertical marks on the stall, which happened to form a letter similar to 'H'!"
"Then, the murderer is really -" Akie turned his head and looked at his brother with a look of fear and disbelief.
"What nonsense!" At this moment, Ichiro Tsumoto suddenly shouted, "What reproduced the death message, what left two vertical marks, all this is just your speculation! You don't have any evidence to prove that everything you say is true!"
There was a kind of madness in his expression, a ferocity like a beast cornered, trying to fight back against all odds.
If it weren't for the leg injury, Eagle Arrow had no doubt that he would have pounced on him.
"Indeed, all this is what we infer from the evidence, and there is no direct evidence to prove it. β
At this time, Maori's voice sounded again, and Conan agreed with Ichiro Nashimoto in a deep tone.
"Look, look! All of this is just your own reasoning, and you don'tβ"
"But the evidence that proves that you are the murderer, we do have!"
However, before Ichiro Shimoto could finish speaking, Conan interrupted him with Mori's righteous and calm voice.
"Y-what are you talking about! How could you possibly have-proof!
Ichiro was deeply choked, and his hands began to tremble again, but he still shouted as if he refused to admit defeat.
"I said, uncle, why does every prisoner have to come out like this in the end?"
Seeing Ichiro Tsumoto say what can be regarded as a standard golden sentence for a self-destructing murderer, Taka couldn't help grinning and said with a smile.
"Probably, this is the so-called 'don't die if you don't reach the Yellow River'......" Conan couldn't help but push his glasses and sneered, "In that case, then take out the evidence and let him see it, Eagle Arrow." β
"Understood!"
With that, Taka couldn't help but pull out two bags from his pocket and place them on the table in front of Maori.
The two pouches each contained strips of small age, one of which was stained with blood.
"W-What is this?"
"Proof!" Eagle couldn't help but spread his hands.
"Evidence?"
Everyone couldn't help but surround in confusion, but they didn't notice that Ichiro Shimoto's face over there had begun to turn pale.
"Ah, this is, breadcrumbs!"
At this time, Xiaolan couldn't help but scream, she had seen Ichiro Samoto when he was drawing on the deck before.
"Yes, charcoal painters usually use the filling of bread as an eraser. As a graduate of the University of the Arts, of course you did the same, Mr. Ichiro Tsubamoto. Conan continued in Maori's voice, "This one bag contains one that we found in the room of the old man in the Shomoto Collection, and the other bag was contaminated when I bandaged your wounds. As long as you wait for the rice flower and take it for testing, you will know if these two bags of bread crumbs are from the same source!"
Ichiro Shimoto swallowed a mouthful of saliva, only to realize that his throat was already dry and unbearable.
"Actually, you don't have to go so far, just pick up some of these crumbs and put them in the water, and you can tell if they were left by Mr. Ichiro. Because, if it is the bread crumbs left over from eating bread, there will be no toner. β
At this time, Takaya couldn't help but take Conan's words and make up for Ichiro Namoto's last stroke.
The knife was very sharp, and it directly pierced Ichiro Shimoto's last stubbornness, causing all his courage to leak out as if he had leaked air, leaving only an empty shell that could not support it, and he collapsed on the chair......
"Ichiro, really...... Is it really you?" As a father, Kitaro Kamoto seemed to have a hard time accepting this fact, "Why? Why? Why did you kill Dad, Ichiro!"
"I guess that's the motivation......"
After a moment's hesitation, Takaya finally took it out - the album that Ichiro Namoto had placed on the easel in the room.
"No...... To ......"
Ichiro tried to reach out to stop him, but his body seemed to be stuck and he couldn't move.
"I'll see!" Akie snatched the album from Eagle's hand and began to flip through them one by one.
"Live...... ...... hand," Ichiro Shimoto desperately tried to stand up.
"Ahh
After watching it for a while, Akie finally reacted and couldn't help but look at Ichiro in disbelief.
Not only her, but even Xia Jiang himself, Xiao Wu, and everyone except Eagle Ya and Maori looked at Ichiro in disbelief.
"Stop!!"
As if returning to the light, Ichiro suddenly burst out, rushed over like crazy, and snatched the sketchpad from Akie's hand.
It's a pity that he tried too hard at that time, not only did he not take back the album completely, but he scattered it anyway, and the emotions he tried his best to hide were shattered into this sky of painting paper, which was displayed in front of everyone's eyes without reservation......
"Ichiro, do you meanβ" Mariko Shimoto looked at her son in disbelief.
Although it is legal for cousins to marry in Japan, and she and her husband are also cousins, she didn't expect that her son would also fall in love with her cousin, and she didn't find out for so many years!
"Ah, yes! I'm in love with Xia Jiang! I want to marry her, can't I!" As if he was giving up on himself, Ichiro roared madly, gritting his teeth to vent his suppressed and distorted emotions, "However, grandpa, he said that I was delusional! He said that he would never marry Xia Jiang to a coward like me! I would rather let Xia Jiang wait for someone who has no news, and even force Xia Jiang to marry an outsider, rather than let her marry me!"
"So I hate! I hate Grandpa! I hate Yuchai Yingya! I hate Xiao Wu! I hate all of you! I'm going to kill all of you!"
Saying this, Ichiro stared at Eagle Arrow and Xiao Wu deadly, and his eyes were terrifying, as if he was going to tear the two of them apart and swallow them.
"If that's what you think, then I can only say that you deserve it, and it's right that Xia Jiang doesn't look down on you!" Hearing Ichiro Shimoto's words, Eagle Ya couldn't help but sneer, raised his head, and looked at him arrogantly, "Do you think you are pitiful, do you think Xia Jiang should like you? Do you think your grandfather should agree with you? Who do you think you are? Do you think you are the center of the world, and everyone must act according to your will? Don't think you are sad, people like you deserve to end up like this!"
"Y-What did you say?"
"Isn't it?" Eagle Ya snorted coldly, "You like Xia Jiang, but you don't even dare to say it! Since you don't say it, why do you let people know your intentions? You say that you complain about Xia Jiang and others for me who has no news, so why did you go during the five years that I was away? You can't grasp it for such a long time, you can't even do the most basic expression, you only know to immerse yourself in your own world and feel sorry for yourself, you kind of person, if you are not single, you are a fucking ghost!"
"Don't talk about it......"
"Speaking from my heart, if I were an old man, I would rather choose Xiao Wu than choose you as a coward! At least people are much more responsible than you, people dare to say and do, even if they don't necessarily succeed, it's much better than you, a soft egg who can only be lustful alone! Damn, you coward who doesn't even dare to confess, you're quite sharp when you kill people! Where do you get the guts, where do you get the power to deprive others of their lives! Or the lives of your blood-related family members! Just because they don't do what you want? What am I special!"
Eagle Ya simply became more and more angry the more he talked, and even wanted to step forward and kick him, but was forcibly pulled by Xia Jiang and Xiaolan on the side.
And Ichiro Namoto over there had already covered his ears, held his head, and lay down on the ground, looking at the drawing paper in which place he cried bitterly.
Letting go of the bow tie in his hand, Conan stepped out from behind Mori and looked at the eagle who seemed to be still angry.
As soon as this kind of thing is involved, it is easy for him to lose his cool.
As a child who lost his parents, the most difficult thing for him to accept is this case of killing his blood relatives, just like the previous Valentine's Day incident. Especially this time because of such bullshit reasons, how can you not make him angry?
Merely...... Is this the real you?
With such affection and sexuality, the feather firewood eagle who dares to love and hate, and the black knight who is rational to cold, which one is the real you?
Of course, none of that matters anymore. At least, not a topic that should be considered right now.
This absurd and tragic murder on a luxury cruise ship came to an end with the heart-rending cries of the criminals.
======================================================================
"Go ahead, he's waiting for you. β
"But, but ......"
"Don't worry, am I such a stingy person?" said Takaya with a smile, "and you have something to say to him." β
"That'...... I'm past ......"
Xia Jiang glanced at Ying Ya faintly, and then walked towards Xiao Wu over there.
"Yo, I can't see that you're so generous, I thought you'd be jealous......"
Watching Xia Jiang leave, Conan came out of nowhere and walked to Eagleya's side.
"Some things always have to be made clear," Takaya smiled and looked up, "Besides, what's the vinegar delicious?"
"Huh, you seem to be very confident in yourself, huh?"
"Nonsense, Lao Tzu has disappeared for five years, he can't handle Xia Jiang, I'm still worried about it!"
"It seems to make sense......" Conan couldn't help laughing, "How are you going to arrange Miss Xia Jiang?"
"This ...... Look at what Xia Jiang thinks about himself......"
"Oh, what if Miss Xia Jiang chooses to go with Mr. Xiao Wu?"
"Heh, then of course I'm wishing her happiness, if she really wants to......"
=======================================================================
"Brother Xiaowu......"
"Xia Jiang...... Thank you, after learning my identity, you are willing to call me Brother Xiaowu......"
Looking at this innocent face and those clear eyes, Xiao Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling a little ashamed.
"Brother Xiaowu, did you approach me to avenge your father?"
"Whew...... At the beginning, yes," looking at those eyes, Xiao Wu found that he had no way to lie, so he had to smile bitterly and say in a self-deprecating tone, "The purpose of entering the group is indeed to help my father avenge me, I want to be the top of the group, and then become the son-in-law of the group, so as to finally control the group!"
"In this way, I will be able to tell him in his ear when he is dying, I am the son of Yuo Caicheng! Everything I do is to turn the entire Uramoto Group into the property of our Caicheng family, and to avenge my dead father!"
When he said this, Xiao Wu's fists trembled, I don't know if it was because of the hatred accumulated for years, or because of the fear of exposing the truth.
"You...... Do you hate grandpa?" said Xia Jiang quietly.
"If you don't hate, it's definitely false. Xiao Wu smiled bitterly and let go of his fist, "After all, I have relied on this hatred to support me for so many years. This hatred can be said to be one of my life goals until now......"
"You must have had a hard time all these years, right?" Xia Jiang sighed slightly.
"It's fine, but I'm relieved now. After I gave up revenge, I realized that shopping malls are like battlefields, and in that situation, if it was my father who won, I'm afraid that the family would have ended up with me now......"
"Then, why did you give up revenge?" Xia Jiang couldn't help asking.
"Because of you," Xiao Wu glanced at Xia Jiang deeply, "At the beginning, I approached you for revenge. But eventually, I fell in love with you, even though you never gave me a response, even if you still had that person in your heart......"
Xiao Wu's words made Xia Jiang blush for a while, but she didn't speak, just listened to him quietly.
"To be honest, when I learned that you already had a heart, I was really angry, jealousy distorted me, I almost wanted to take a revenge plan in an extreme way, mess up the entire Queben family, and then forcibly get you!" It seemed that the jar was broken, Xiao Wu unreservedly, and calmly put the thoughts in his heart in front of Xia Jiang's eyes, "But in the end, I still gave up." β
"Because, I don't want to see you cry. Xiao Wu couldn't help but smile, with a hint of regret, but more of a relief.
"Brother Xiaowu......" Xia Jiang couldn't help but feel the corners of her eyes reflux, she felt that the past two days must have been the most crying days in her life, "Thank you, and, I'm sorry...... No matter who you are, but in my memory, you will always be that little martial brother!"
"Okay, don't cry, I just said I didn't want to see you cry. β
Seeing the tears in the corners of Xia Jiang's eyes, Xiao Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly, and wanted to reach out to wipe it, but finally stopped.
He felt unworthy of it.
When the power went out and it was pitch black, he took advantage of the chaos to untie his blindfold and the rope that tied his hands, and ran to the warehouse next to the toilet to hide. When he saw Xia Jiang enter the bathroom, he was obsessed and wanted to kidnap Xia Jiang.
At that time, he had already been framed, and the series of malicious acts of kidnapping made him a little nervous, and he just wanted to escape from this place quickly and take his most beloved with him, even if it was in some unconventional ways.
However, Xia Jiang's frightened screams woke him up, and he finally realized that it was he who scared his beloved.
So, he fled the scene quickly, holding the mentality of darkness under the lights, and hid back in the warehouse where he had been tied up by the prisoners, until he was discovered by Conan, who was investigating the scene......
"Huh......" Xiao Wu sighed softly, looking at the girl in front of him who he once loved, his thoughts surged, and he couldn't help but call out her name, "Xia Jiang......"
"Huh?" Xia Jiang couldn't help but raise his head in confusion.
"Be happy!"
I stopped talking for a while, and a thousand words finally converged into these four words.
"Yes!"
Xia Jiang nodded vigorously, and his smile shone brightly in the rising sun.
====================================================================
"What a touching scene, you say yes, Eagle Arrow?
"If he dares to say another word to Xia Jiang, I'll throw him into the sea to feed the fish!"
"......" Conan couldn't help but be speechless for a while, "Hey, didn't you just say that you want to bless people?"
"I bless a fart! I wish him a healthy color on his head in the future? Wow, Xia Jiang laughed again! He was still laughing so happily! What the hell did he say! Definitely not as humorous as me! Wow, I'm really annoyed! Conan, borrow your football!"
"Hey, what are you going to do!
