"The deceased, Uesugi Mori, thirty-two years old, chairman of the Uesugi Foundation, engaged in the maritime transportation business and foreign trade business, held a party on this ship today, right? Maori dude? Officer Twilight stared at Kogoro Mori with a rather peculiar gaze. Uncle Maori felt a lot of pressure: "This ...... Basically, yes. ”

"Why are you here again, Maori-kun, every time you show up, there will be a case." Officer Twilight asks the unanswered question again.

Uncle Maori blushed, although he knew that it had nothing to do with him, but why did he have a faint sense of guilt......

In another room, Uesugi Hoshino fell into the arms of the garden and wept silently. Xiaolan, Yuanzi and the children who accompanied her in this room all felt very sad. Uesugi Hoshino's pretty face lost its seductive luster and became pale as paper. The big lively eyes were red and swollen from grief and crying. Now Uesugi Hoshino has simply lost three souls and seven spirits, her father is her everything, and her father is her world. Now that her father is gone, how long will her world last?

In the hallway, Conan frowned and remained silent. Ji Haihong said: "Don't think about it, it must be murder, although it doesn't seem to be completely hanged, but the strangulation marks on the neck are proof, and Uesugi Mori actually wrote the words "killed" in the notebook in front of him before he died. ”

"He kills" - these are the words that Uesugi Mori scribbled in his notebook, and it seems that Uesugi Mori did not have much time to write this word. This is the only way he can leave a message of death.

"This is the strangest part," Conan turned on the reasoning mode, "If I am a criminal and I want to kill the victim, will I still give the victim a chance to leave a message?" Moreover, where is the murder weapon? What is the object? These are really weird. ”

"That's right," Ji Haihong, who had never improved his reasoning skills, thought for a moment, "Why don't we go to Uesugi Mori's room and observe?" ”

"I was just thrown out by my uncle......" Conan Half-Moon Eyes.

"Oh, I forgot, so what's next?" Ji Haihong asked.

Conan said: "Officer Twilight just said that we will definitely not be able to get off the ship until the passengers are examined, first drive the freighter back to port, let the forensic doctor board the ship, and conduct a further autopsy. ”

"It's a sad story." Ji Haihong said.

Conan was speechless: "Can you be serious, alas, in retrospect, it's really ...... The child's father is gone. ”

Ji Haihong raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Now there are still three hours before returning to the port, the prisoner must be on this ship, don't you follow Uncle Maori and them to investigate those guests?" ”

"They haven't gone yet."

"I just saw them walk behind you, and you still say they didn't?" Ji Haihong teased.

Conan turned around and saw that Uncle Maori and the others were about to walk out of his sight, so he was so anxious that he stomped his feet, and he didn't have time to settle accounts with Ji Haihong, so he immediately chased after him.

Ji Haihong didn't move, he stood behind Conan until he caught up with Uncle Maori and them.

Finally...... This kind of case that has no impression in my memory at all, it seems that I have finally merged with the world in a sense, but even if it is integrated, there are still so many cases around Conan, who has not been arranged by the script. Ji Haihong was accustomed to this situation, and could only smile silently.

"Hello, Ms. Tomiea Wada, I am Twilight of the Metropolitan Police Department, and now I want to investigate the guests on this ship, please cooperate." Officer Twilight shows off his police ID card.

There's no way, in fact, if you investigate these people, Uesugi Hoshino is the first target of the investigation. But now, the poor little girl was overwhelmed with grief by the sudden bad news. In order to take care of Uesugi Hoshino's emotions and to better investigate, the police will start the investigation with the heavyweight guests invited by Uesugi Mori this time.

The first one they chose was Tomie Wada.

"Okay, I'll do my best." As a star, as soon as he gets involved with the police, he will attract onlookers from all walks of life. Although she tried her best to make herself look cooperative with the police, she still couldn't hide the annoyed expression on her face.

"Click, click." The shutter rang out at an inopportune time, and the police officers who were questioning Wada Tomieda turned around to see Ashikaga Shuchen taking pictures with his camera.

Tomieda Wada was disgusted by this kind of thing: "You give me out!" ”

"This gentleman, ...... are you" Officer Takagi blocked Ashikaga Shutashi.

"I'm a special correspondent for Nippon Mii TV, and this time I was invited by Mr. Uesugi to report on this ship, and this is my business card......" Ashikaga Shuchen was asked out by Officer Takagi before he could finish speaking.

"Alright, that's all I have to say." Tomieda Wada is in a bad mood, and she hates these reporters the most.

Officer Twilight stood up from his seat and bowed politely, "Thank you for your cooperation, then, we're leaving." ”

Officer Takagi confiscated Ashikaga Shutashi's film and, despite his loud protests, walked to the next room with his boss.

"According to our preliminary examination of the body, the result is that the time of the victim's death is between seven and half past seven in the evening, of course, the accurate result will not be determined until the forensic examination, according to the clues provided by Uesugi Mori's secretary, at seven o'clock, Uesugi Mori also called him to the room to arrange matters, by the way, the time of your fireworks show here is seven o'clock, right?" Officer Twilight clapped his hands and said, "Is this a coincidence?" ”

In other words, during this half hour, the murderer sneaked into Mr. Uesugi's room and killed him...... So Officer Twilight, I don't think there is any need to investigate these important guests. Uncle Maori affirmed.

It's rare for Officer Twilight to see a Maori brother so sure: "Why? ”

"Because when the fireworks show started, they were all on deck, and I could see it clearly."

"Maybe we will commit the crime during the fireworks setoff, so for the sake of insurance, let's go down one by one."

The next place to visit is the guest room of Eguchi Kirin.

Eguchi was not salty or indifferent to the arrival of the police, and served tea to the visitors very politely. He sits at his workbench and types on his laptop.

"Where are you between seven and half-past seven?" Officer Twilight asked.

"You don't have to call me that, I was sitting alone in the corner watching the fireworks." Eguchi's hands flew and the keyboard clicked.

"Uh...... Well, who can prove that you were on deck at the time? ”

Eguchi stopped what he was doing: "I remember that Miss Uesugi once invited me to sit in the front, saying that she could see clearly, but I refused. ”

"Aha, you actually refused the invitation of such a beautiful girl," Uncle Maori's true nature began to be revealed, "Is it a bachelor, or is it a resentment towards the Uesugi family?" ”

Eguchi didn't speak, and Officer Twilight asked, "Brother Maori, what do you mean by that?" ”

Uncle Maori cleared his throat and began to show off his reasoning: "According to the information I received, Eguchi Kirin and his father Eguchi Kazuo have become enemies because of family problems, and Eguchi Kazuo has repeatedly asked Uesugimori to raise the transportation price to Eguchi Feilin, may I ask if this is the case?" So you have a grudge against Uesugi Mori and take advantage of this opportunity to kill him! ”

"But Brother Maori, he has an alibi." Officer Twilight whispered.

"This ...... Maybe he used Miss Uesugi as an alibi and then went to commit the crime? Uncle Maori hesitated.

Conan said, "Yes, but Brother Eguchi didn't know that Miss Uesugi would come to invite him, and no one can predict such a random event, so how could he deliberately take advantage of it?" ”

"You kid...... Uncle Maori clenched his fists, ready to give this little imp who didn't know how thick the sky was.

"I have a clear grievance, and," Eguchi Kirin suddenly spoke, "Uncle Uesugi's so-called 'price increase' is just a symbolic show, secretly still charge me according to the original price, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, even if Uncle Uesugi really raises the price for me, I will not blame him, sooner or later, I will let that man pay back double." ”

The cold gaze swept over Maori Kogoro, and he suddenly felt a bunch of goosebumps on his body. Leaving the room with a smile, Uncle Maori breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that this guy is not a prisoner either." ”

"I said Maori brother, can you stop reasoning, if the relationship between them and the police is damaged, it will be very difficult for us to collect evidence!"

"Yes, I see." Large drops of sweat left on Kogoro Mori's forehead.

This uncle...... Conan had long been accustomed to his "divine unfolding".

Next is Kazuo Eguchi's room.

"Please come in, please come in, alas, no one wants to see this happen, and I will try to cooperate with your work." Kazuo Eguchi invited the police into the room with a look of regret.

"Mr. Eguchi, let's make a long story short, may I ask where you are between seven and half past seven?"

Kazuo Eguchi thought for a moment: "It was a fireworks show at that time, and I was on deck. ”

"Can anyone prove it?"

"Yes," said Kazuo Eguchi, "the reporter from the Nikizi TV station helped me take a few pictures with fireworks backgrounds, which should be considered that or something...... Alibi, right? ”

"Okay, we'll confirm the news, thank you for your cooperation."

The crowd returned to the hallway. Officer Twilight said, "It seems that these important guests are not suspicious, and if Kazuo Eguchi's news is correct, then Ashikaga Shutai's suspicion is also cleared." ”

"In addition to Ashikaga Shuchen, there's another person we're going to visit next," Officer Twilight straightened his hat, "the foreigner." ”

Led by the secretary, Officer Twilight and the others arrived at the foreigner's room.

The foreigner was writing an e-mail on his computer, and by the time Officer Twilight came in, he was already halfway there.

This is Jock Williams, who was sent by the President of the United States Steamship Company to negotiate business with the chairman. Mr. Williams, arrived in Japan yesterday. The secretary said.

Black-haired, black-eyed white guys? It's really rare. Conan watched the foreigner closely.

"The President of the United States? Is it a company that builds ships for the President of the United States! Uncle Maori, who really didn't know anything, said in surprise.

"The President of the United States Steamship Company is a 150-year-old maritime transportation company, not a shipbuilding company, and this time we came to Japan because the company received an invitation from the chairman of the board of directors, and then asked Mr. Williams to visit as a commissioner to discuss the future direction of cooperation between our two companies."

"That's right......" None of the investigators except Conan were aware.

"I would venture to ask, Mr. Williams, where were you between seven and half past seven in the evening?"

"I hate noise, so I watched the fireworks on deck for a while and then went back to rest," Williams said. ”

"How long have you been watching?"

"In less than five minutes."

"Who can testify for you?"

"I testify," the secretary said, holding up his hand, "that I accompanied Mr. Williams to the deck and back to the guest room." ”

……

"Now it seems that that foreigner has the most time to commit crimes." Uncle Maori touches his chin.

Officer Twilight said, "But we don't know what the motive is, Williams and Uesugi Mori probably don't have anything to do with each other, and it's full of randomness, so I think Williams is probably not a prisoner." ”

"Let's go to Mr. Ashikaga's room first to investigate and collect evidence, and then go back to Mr. Uesugi's room, at least we need to know how the prisoner got there." Uncle Maori said.

Say hello first, these chapters, including the entire case, are not high-energy, at most they are to catch criminals or something, and pave the way for the rest of the article...... This time, I'm writing this kind of case-solving plot by myself.,Maybe there's a bug.,So let's make do with it.,‒▽〒.
