Uncle Maori and the others, who were listening to the report in another office, suddenly felt a clear vibration under their feet, and at the same time heard a loud noise. Although it is only a matter of a moment, for Japanese people who are often hit by earthquakes, they are very sensitive to earthquakes.

"Earthquake?" Officer Takagi was a little nervous.

Uncle Maori glared at him and lectured him: "Stupid! How can an earthquake happen on a ship? ”

"By the way, the source of the sound seems to be from the direction of the warehouse, isn't the text message that Mr. Uesugi received also related to the warehouse?" Officer Sato said.

Officer Takagi suddenly thought of something very important: "Oh no! Ji Haihong and Conan seem to be in the warehouse! ”

"What did you say!" Officer Twilight and Uncle Maori immediately went to the warehouse, followed by the others.

The children on the second deck also felt a slight vibration, and Xiaoran, who was accompanying Uesugi Hoshino, had a bad premonition.

"What's wrong, Lan?" Yuanzi noticed that something was wrong with Xiaolan.

"I ...... I'm going to look for Conan and them, there may be murderers on board, and we can't let them run around. Xiaolan felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety in her heart, and she put down the porcelain cup in her hand. I heard that Dad and they are all on the third deck, and Conan should be there too.

Gray Yuan looked at Xiaolan's back, and then looked at the children who were cute on the surface but active in their hearts, and dispelled the idea of looking for Ji Haihong. That guy, it's good not to send the prisoner to the hospital, how can he be in danger.

Uncle Maori pushed the door open, and was greeted by a dusty breeze. He had no choice but to fan the flying dust in front of him far away with his hand, and Officer Twilight who followed behind him also wrinkled his nose and subconsciously protected his eyes.

"What happened?" Officers Takagi and Sato followed.

The air quality in the warehouse is gradually improving, and the line of sight is clearer. What came into view was a mess of goods and deformed metal brackets.

"Hey! Imps! Are you all right? Uncle Maori stepped over the obstacle and looked for the traces of Conan and Ji Haihong. Everyone else immediately helped to find it.

Xiaolan also came to the cargo hold under the leadership of the staff on the freighter, and there was such a big movement, even if the owner of the freighter died, the crew must come to check. Xiaolan happened to meet this staff member who came down to check, so they came here together.

"Dad, what's going on?"

"Lan, hurry up and find those two little ghosts......"

Before Uncle Maori's words were finished, Ji Haihong's voice floated over: "No need to look for it, we are here." ”

Everyone looked at it and found that Ji Haihong was supporting Conan, and both of them were covered with a thick layer of dust, which looked as if they had just been fished out of the flour pile. Ji Haihong shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off all the dust in his hair, but it looked like he was throwing more and more.

"How's Conan?" Xiaolan hurriedly ran over and asked.

Forehead...... Of course, she didn't ignore Ji Haihong, but now Conan doesn't seem to be jumping so much...... ( ̄▽ ̄)

"He's fine, it's just that he's faint, Sister Xiaolan, take him to take a bath, it's quite dirty." Ji Haihong gave Conan to his girlfriend.

"What about you, Ji Haihong?" Xiaolan asked with concern.

"Of course I'm going to wash ...... too"

"Why don't I wash it for you?" Xiaolan's kind proposal.

Ji Haihong and his little friends were stunned, and now they couldn't express the feeling in their hearts in any words.

"Good!" Ji Haihong, whose brain was short-circuited, said the sentence that the pronunciation was not normal, and then he was so frightened that he hurriedly changed his words and said: "No, no, no!" No! I mean, Sister Xiaolan, I'm an adult, and I'm going to take a shower by myself! ”

The reaction doesn't have to be so violent, right? Except for Xiaolan and Conan, everyone else thinks that Ji Haihong is a little abnormal, but this should be the child's self-esteem, well, that's it.

So the adults have put their gratifying eyes on Ji Haihong, after all, the child has grown up and has self-esteem, this is to be encouraged! ╰(￣▽￣)╮

What are they thinking...... Ji Haihong, who was uncomfortable, had no choice but to blame this feeling on the fact that his body was too dirty and uncomfortable now, and he was indeed going to take a shower.

Ran took Conan, who was in a state of half-daze, into the special bathroom on the freighter, and then took off all his clothes. Conan's hair and glasses are covered in dust, and if the description "just picked up from the flour pile" is incorrect, then it is not bad to use "a cute little Shota who rubs too much powder" to describe Conan's appearance at this moment. In the past, Conan gave people the impression of being serious - although he often sold moe but still couldn't hide his essence - so now there is this strange contrast moe, which is very attractive.

The next shot belongs to Sister Xiaolan herself, and it is not easy for others to watch it (in order to respect Conan's ** right, I will not describe it in detail next, definitely not because the author is lazy).

After taking a bath, Conan's consciousness gradually returned. He and Ji Haihong were called to the guest room, and then there was a scolding from the adults - because Ji Haihong had a meritorious role in saving the driver, there was not much criticism of him.

Conan bowed his head and said nothing, don't get me wrong, of course he doesn't have any so-called guilt, but he is a man who has been buried by an avalanche, what wind and waves have he never seen? He was just thinking about all kinds of seemingly coincidental clues, and the endless possibilities.

Uncle Maori taught him a lesson for a long time, and when he saw Conan "bowing his head and repenting", he could also feel the "deep guilt" in his heart, and Xiaolan persuaded him on the side, Uncle Maori forgave Conan for the time being.

"What are you thinking?" Ji Haihong leaned over and asked.

"Text messages on my phone, and that strange backpack and the cause of death of Uesugi Mori, oh yes, thank you for saving me."

While Conan was taking a shower, the police had already reasoned from the current leads.

They investigate the cause of Uesugi Mori's death, the murder weapon, the mysterious text messages, and what happened to Conan and Ji Haihong, and in the end nothing comes out. Still, they found something useful, like the collapsed shelf.

Warehouse shelves like this are subject to statutory safety testing standards, and their structures and materials are also within the legal scope. In other words, the safety of the shelves is guaranteed, and there will be no quality problems unless they are in disrepair or cutting corners.

It just so happened that the forensics department had been investigating the scene on the ship, so Officer Twilight asked them to inspect the shelves, and found something intriguing.

"According to our investigation, some of the main structures of this shelf are missing, only some less solid support structures remain, and there are traces of manipulation," a member of the forensic department reported, "According to our judgment, this person is familiar with the structure of the shelf, and the prisoner tied several ropes to the backpack with the other end connected to those support structures, and if someone pulls the backpack out of that position, the entire shelf will collapse, and we believe that this is a man-made incident." ”

"Man-made events? Could it be that the prisoner wanted to ask Mr. Sugimori to go there and kill him with this trap? Officer Takagi guessed.

"There is some truth to this, but the trap must be activated by the victim himself to be effective, and why would the prisoner go to the office to kill him even after sending a text message?" Officer Twilight's words made everyone think about the reason again.

Uncle Maori asked, "By the way, what did you find after the inspection of that black backpack?" ”

The forensics department flipped through the records: "There are some cartons and other fillers in the backpack, which may be used to increase weight, and nothing else has been found." ”

……

"You two are not allowed to run around anymore! Especially Conan, if it weren't for Ji Haihong to save you this time, the consequences would be terrible, do you know! "Xiaolan is rarely angry with Conan, too, such a worry-free child always makes some earth-shattering things out, and often makes people worry, whoever meets him will be angry.

The protagonist of this incident, that is, Ji Haihong, who was "a hero saves beauty" at a critical juncture, sat on the sofa and drank juice, and watched Conan-jun who was reprimanded by the way.

"Anything new?" Gray Yuan asked with concern.

Ji Haihong shook his head: "No, the clue is only the black backpack, if you can find out who it is, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

"Backpack? Black backpacks? When Mitsuhiko heard the keyword, he immediately came over and asked.

"yes, what's wrong?" Ji Haihong poured a glass of juice.

"We saw Mr. Uesugi Mori carrying a backpack in the warehouse, black!" Mitsuhiko was a little excited.

"Poof!" Ji Haihong can't be calm, this is really an important clue! Conan also heard this, and the two of them looked at each other tacitly, pulled Mitsuhiko and ran out.

"Hey! What are you doing! Xiaolan, who had just finished training, thought that Conan would stop for a while, but she didn't expect it to be the left ear going in and the right ear coming out! He didn't give himself any face, and ran out openly?!

"Hey! Let's go too! Yuan Tai and Ayumi, who had been paying attention to them, were not to be left behind, leaving Xiaolan behind and stomping her feet angrily, of course, there was a wicked smile on the side to watch the lively garden.

"What? You say this backpack belongs to Mr. Uesugi Mori? "After listening to the children's reports, the adults were quite surprised.

Officer Sato took the backpack and squatted down in front of Ayumi: "Ayumi, you mean that you not only saw this backpack, but also touched it, right?" ”

"That's right!" Ayumi nodded obediently.

"So, do you feel like there's something in there? For example, a floppy cardboard box? ”

“ano…… No, I just felt a round, hard stuff inside, yes, like a cup! ”

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes confused and confused.

"It seems that we are going to re-investigate the people with whom Mr. Uesugi Mori has been in contact recently." Officer Twilight made a conclusion.
