Chapter 171: Seven people who died at the same time

The sun was sinking in the west, and the crimson glow was slowly graying.

One by one, the lights on the deck lit up to illuminate the increasingly irritable crowd.

As the sun went down completely, there was a bang, and the lights on the deck suddenly went out.

The crowd was startled and panicked.

Dullness and depression filled the hearts of those who knew about the crime plotter.

Conan, Heiji Hattori, Detective Hakuba, Bobcat, Toru Amuro, and Aokae are all on alert.

There was some confusion all around.

"What's going on?"

"Did you trip?"

"Don't panic, everyone, we have flashlights! Stay where you are and be careful of stampedes! The surrounding police and security personnel shouted loudly and turned on their flashlights.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation.

Next to a chair on the deck, a figure struggled in the purple and red flames, like a demon crawling out of hell, possessing itself, burning its own life.

The firelight reflected the frightened faces and frightened eyes of the retreating people.

Hattori scolded in a low voice, took the flashlight from the hand of a policeman next to him, ran there not far away, and stopped in shock.

In the dim and chaotic crowd, the light of the flashlight swept to a man who was lying in a pool of blood, causing another panic scream.

"Don't touch him!" Hattori Heiji ran forward, "Everyone stay where they are, don't move, don't leave!" ”

"What's that?"

"Oh my God, is it a KB operation?"

"What the hell is going on?!"

The crowd became more and more agitated, looking up in the direction of the activity area, and exclaiming.

It was not yet showtime, but on the originally dark screen hanging on the deck, a black background and a few lines of blood letters slowly appeared.

"I'm from hell

And I have given my messenger a punishment of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder

All enmity is dissolved in blood

- Crime Planner]

And in front of the screen, there is also a person who is hanging up and swaying.

Conan's expression was solemn, "Victim...... There are seven! ”

……

An hour later, the deck was once again illuminated by a bright lighting system.

Seven deceased, in order to facilitate the search at the scene, the bodies were sent to the deck, covered with a white cloth, and lined up in a neat row.

The power was cut off before, and even the backup circuit was cut off, and the monitoring failed to capture any useful information.

Officer Twilight lowered his hat and remained silent.

Not only the police officer, but all the police officers were extremely silent, bowing their heads and busy collecting evidence on the spot.

And the detective team, on the other hand, was also silent, as if there were dark clouds pressing over everyone's heads.

"No......" Conan was also stunned, and suddenly woke up and looked at the others, "If you continue like this, the revenge of that guy who calls himself a criminal planner will succeed!" ”

Hattori was stunned and looked up at Conan, "Retaliation ......"

The other police officers in the vicinity also turned their heads in unison.

"That's right, it's revenge, revenge against the police and detectives," Amuro pulled down his mask and coughed twice from the sea breeze, but still reached out and gave Qingfeng a head touch to kill, "Constantly impress self-denial psychological hints to detectives and policemen...... It will also appear when playing Go, and a certain chess, whether it is survived or killed, will inevitably play a role. ”

"Yes, the bomb at the beginning, maybe it had something to do with him, or maybe he knew," Conan said in a deep voice, "If you don't defuse the bomb, the bomb will definitely explode, and defusing the bomb so that the police can't find the person who planted the bomb is the first frustration to build." ”

"Actually, this is also normal," Amuro said, "After all, there are so many people on the cruise ship, and it is very difficult to investigate, and it is already a big gain to defuse the bomb and rule out a crisis, but because everyone is anxious to find the prisoner, the mood will change from the initial vigilance and enthusiasm, to the sudden relaxation after the bomb is completely dismantled, and then to the self-doubt that the prisoner cannot be found after the crisis is resolved. ”

Detective White Horse then said, "After sending out the crime notice, he specially used the word 'incompetent' to detonate the self-denial accumulated due to frustration before, and everyone immediately thought of the bomber's search for nothing, right?" seems to be full of enthusiasm to find out the criminal mastermind, but in fact, it is because he is unwilling, because the word incompetent just pierces the heart, and he wants to prove that he is not incompetent. ”

"He seems to have given us time," the lynx smirked, "in fact, he has been preparing or has been preparing for a long time, and the time left for us is actually not enough, just like deliberately letting the flies fly in the bottle when he has prepared the mesh traps, and finally revealing all the mesh traps to cause psychological shock to the flies and make the flies desperate...... Okay, it's a bit of a strange analogy, but that's probably it, using a trick to make the victim die at the same time and in different ways, that's what he shows to scare us, and the more we try to prove it, the deeper the frustration will be at this moment. ”

"But in fact, it's far easier to destroy than to protect, right? This guy can be a psychologist......" Hattori Heiji lowered his head and laughed, under his hat, his eyes were unprecedentedly serious and determined, "He can't help but see the detective too weakly, and the deeper the frustration, the more motivated the detective is to see him through, see through, and arrest!" ”

Seeing that Qingfeng was still frowning, he didn't look energetic, so he couldn't help leaning over Qingfeng and said, "What are you thinking?" Are you thinking that if you had told Conan earlier, you might have been able to stop this? ”

His little fox's ideas are crazy and strange, but he has always had a sense of responsibility and mission in his bones.

With a group of children, she will feel that it is her duty to protect that group of children.

When she controlled most of H country, she would be responsible for that country, obviously a usurper, but worried about the children and the future of that country......

It can also be called goodness.

Qingfeng pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

It's not that she can't see the dead, nor is she sad for the dead, she doesn't feel sad at all.

It's just that......

From the time I got on the cruise, I took it as my responsibility or mission to stop the crime plotters, and I was more shocked and frustrated than others.

"I don't have that idea," Amuro whispered in Aokaede's ear, "Not long after I got on the cruise, all the detectives and a lot of police officers were mobilized, so nothing was found, even if I told Conan about the crime planner earlier, would it be useful?" Or do you think that Conan will ignore suspicious points or suspicious people when he is constantly investigating? ”

A flash of light flashed in Qing Feng's eyes.

Indeed, even if he wasn't a bomber, Conan wouldn't have been careless if he had found anything during his investigation last night.

Other detectives and cops are not vegetarians either.

"In other words, although we didn't confess all the information, we did search for the bomber, and even the criminal planner was investigated, and the reason is not that you say it or not, but the result is the same," Amuro coughed, and continued, "because it's a pretending fair but not fair showdown...... Although I am a little unwilling, there is no need to feel frustrated. ”

"Well, I got ......"

Qingfeng closed his eyes, didn't he just lose?

It's not that I haven't lost.

It's just that I'm used to mastering the plot, and I was led by the nose when an unknown plot suddenly appeared, and it was too serious to have self-denial......

Adjusting his mentality, Qing Feng opened his eyes and looked at Officer Twilight, "Officer Twilight, people can't stay on the deck, whether it's the bombs in the bilge and escape route, or the crime notice that doesn't understand who the victim is, both of them are intent on forcing everyone to the deck, if so, then there will definitely be some dangers or traps on the deck that we don't know about, and we can't be led by his nose anymore." ”

Officer Twilight thought for a moment and nodded to the other officers, "Except for the people involved and those in the vicinity of the time before and after the deceased's death, everyone else should evacuate the deck and go to the Atrium Plaza, and our people will continue to monitor and protect them." ”

There were more than 30 suspects left behind, and the others were evacuated to the atrium square.

"The ......"

Conan looked up beside the corpse and shouted, "Sister Xiaofeng, come here!" ”

"Huh?" Qingfeng passed, "What's wrong?" ”

"Look at this ......," Conan pointed to one of the corpses.

It was the body of a man lying in a pool of blood, and the cause of death was a cut throat.

Qingfeng knew at a glance why Conan called him over, the marks on the neck of this thing were the same as the bloody wounds on his face that night when he splashed gin.

With one size fits all, the throat artery trachea is completely severed.

It's just that his incision that day is parallel, and the incision of this dead man is diagonally to the lower left.

Conan lowered his voice and asked, "You didn't kill yourself with a knife that day, did you?" What is it? ”

"wire saw," Qingfeng said, "but the wire is sharper, ensuring that the death process is quick and not painful." ”

Conan sweated, and when he thought that Qingfeng had really experienced that feeling, he felt that the whole person was not good, "Can that kind of thing pass through the security check?" Also, the incision is different from the day you did, what will happen? Could it be the same thing? ”

"It's no problem to go through the security check, if it's just the part of the line, the X-ray scan out is not clear, and it is easy to be entrained," Qingfeng explained, "As for whether it is a wire saw, it still depends on the autopsy results, but it is likely to be ...... to look at this trace."

"Wire saws?" Hattori Heiji next to him listened to it.

"Wire saws?" Takagi, who was questioning the suspect over there, turned back.

More than 30 suspects looked over: "......"

Qing Feng saw Takuya Mifune, Hideki Nakajima, and more or less blood stains on the two of them, and was slightly surprised, and then looked at Takagi, "Didn't the autopsy results say what the murder weapon was?" ”

"That ......," Takagi scratched his head, "there is no coroner here, and we are still on the way over, and we have only preliminarily determined the time of death, and the time of death of the seven deceased people was around the time of the power outage on the deck." ”
