Chapter 178: Ye Caisan
"Oh? You're that famous detective...... Sleeping Kogoro? ”
"Hahaha! That's right! ”
"Really? That's really an eye that doesn't know Mount Tai! I should have thought of it when I first met Miss Xiaolan! ”
In the passenger ship restaurant, Nagisa Isobei, who was chatting while eating, suddenly found Maori Kogoro who had been trying to pretend to be a beep when he met Xiaolan and others, so under her maneuvering, Maori Kogoro, who was not a trace of guard, poured his bottom clean.
The other tenants on the other side who heard the news also had different expressions on their faces.
"No...... I'm sorry, I'd like to go back to my room and lie down first! ”
"Hahaha! Are you still so prone to seasickness? Go for it! Kameda! I'm no problem here! ”
"Really? Then I'll go first! I'm so embarrassed! Crab River! ”
"Go ahead! Go ahead! ”
Looking at Kameda, who had left suddenly, Xiaolan smiled proudly.
"Surprise is coming! Everybody! Let's look forward to it together! ”
"What surprise?"
Hearing Xiaolan say this, Maori Kogoro and the others were puzzled.
However, Xiaolan looked at them and smiled mysteriously, and stopped revealing the answer.
Seeing that Xiaolan was reluctant to speak, Maori Kogoro was helpless, and he no longer dwelled on this surprise, and couldn't help but sigh after secretly pouring himself a glass of wine.
"With such a big ship and so few people, it feels really deserted!"
"Yes! With the addition of the two travelers resting in the room, the other invited travelers are basically here! We don't understand Mr. Furukawa's mind either! ”
The waiter who heard Mori Kogoro's sigh, after carefully putting the dishes in his hand on their table, made a gesture of invitation to Mori Kogoro and others, and couldn't help but speak.
"Huh? And two people don't come to dinner? Is it the detective and the old man who just talked about it while chatting on the road? ”
"Yes!"
"That detective, we should know! But the old man really hadn't seen him! ”
After eating the food in her hand, Xiaolan, who heard the waiter's introduction, asked with some curiosity.
"Ahh I've seen that old man! He passed me in the hallway and saw me once! It feels like he's very taciturn! By the way, what does he do, Mr. Waitress, do you know? ”
Hearing Xiaolan's inquiry, the whale on the other side put down the knife and fork in his hand and also spoke up. Apparently he was also interested in these two people who he still hadn't known to everyone.
"I heard that he is a marine researcher! It's called ...... Ye Caisan. ”
took out the registration list in his arms, and the waiter slowly read it out after reacting to it. And when he heard his name, everyone who had been happily dining in the hall fell silent.
Only Mori Kogoro muttered while drinking.
"Ye Caisan? How does the name feel so familiar? Where have I heard it? Forget it, maybe it's ......"
"Stupid! Gross profit! Have you forgotten? He is the main culprit in the 400 million yuan robbery that we have hunted down together before! Shadow Planner - Ye Caisan! ”
"Huh?"
"Where's his room?"
"Room One!"
"Take me there!"
Ignoring Maori Kogoro, who was in a daze, Officer Samezaki, who was suddenly emotionally excited, pulled the waiter in front of him, and asked with a somewhat hideous face. And the waiter, who was frightened by his appearance, also stammered and immediately gave him an answer.
Then Officer Arizaki dragged Mori Kogoro and rushed towards the guest room area.
"Is this the interesting case you told me about?"
Watching the angry Officer Samezaki and the confused Mori Kogoro running towards the guest room area, Conan, who followed Yuichi behind and moved forward unhurriedly, finally had a chance to ask.
"That's right! Shadow Planner! When he was active, I was still a little ghost, and you were still a tadpole brewing in Uncle Yusaku's body! However, it can still be seen from the sealed files in the Metropolitan Police Department that he is a very interesting person! This guy, whose real name is Ye Caisan, is the most impressive when it was the 400 million yuan robbery that shocked the entire island country 20 years ago! His plan was tightly knit, his modus operandi was clean and neat, and he played the police at the time, so he was called a shadow planner. In particular, his lone ranger behavior of often changing partners, and his quirk of not hurting anyone when committing a crime are even more sought after by ignorant citizens! Until that robbery twenty years ago, he killed a bank clerk and then disappeared completely, I didn't expect to hear his name here! This ship is getting more and more interesting! Shinichi, isn't this your favorite plot? ”
"But I heard my dad say that he was already dead! I heard that a shirt with bullet holes and his blood stains was found on the beach, so if it seems that he may have been blackened by his own men! ”
Just as Conan was about to ask Yuichi about the more detailed situation of Ye Caisan, who suddenly appeared, a familiar Kansai dialect sounded from next door to the aisle he was walking in, and then the door of room No. 2 in front of room No. 1 was opened with a creak.
"Hattori? I knew it was you! I didn't expect you to come here to join in the fun! Did you see that travel newspaper too? And what about leaves? Didn't you take her with you? ”
Conan, who was looking for the voice and saw the person who came, suddenly couldn't help but get excited.
"Newspapers? What's that? I got on this ship after receiving an anonymous strange letter! ”
"Huh? Strange letter? ”
Conan, who heard Hattori's strange answer, couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"That's right! About a week ago! Someone sent me a letter with 100,000 yuan attached, asking me to go to Ogasa to handle the case, which felt very strange! The letter said that Furukawa Dai, and there was no sender's address, and the banknotes were all old banknotes, and it was also written that if you took these banknotes to the port and showed them, they would let me take a boat! I've never been paid for a case, so even though I'm not interested in this letter, I came anyway to return the money to Mr. Furukawa! I didn't expect to hear your voice in the room, it seems that I have encountered an interesting case! ”
After introducing the reason why he was here with Conan and Yuichi, he knew that Yuichi and they were investigating whose Hattori was at the moment, and he came to the door with excitement on his face.
And after getting this information from him that he didn't have, Yuichi and Conan, who had just heard Xiaolan's secret, immediately looked at each other.
If the bald man named Kameda is really Furukawa Dai in disguise, then it would be interesting to use this method to get Hattori over, this is the rhythm of things! Especially at this time, Ye Caisan's information appeared on the ship again.
"Ye Caisan? Furukawa Dai? Interesting! The ship is getting more and more interesting! ”
After saying this intriguing sentence to Conan and Hattori, Yuichi turned around and walked down the aisle from which he came. He can be sure that there is definitely something wrong with Ye Caisan in this No. 1 room.
