Pitch Black Express Chapter 116: Aegis Ship (15)

"What about X's eyewitnesses?" Kogoro Maori, who had been staying in the CIC, heard that Officer Sato had found a person who knew X's true identity, but saw that she and Officer Twilight had returned alone, without any witnesses.

"On that note, Conan said he could help us find that X." Officer Twilight explains to Uncle Maori about X.

The staff on the side took Conan to the CIC and found him a low seat, "Please sit in this position and watch the surveillance video, and let me know if you see X." ”

"Good!"

"How could that kid suddenly recognize who X is." Kogoro said it was strange.

"It seems to be the father of the little friend he just met on the boat." Officer Twilight explained slightly.

"Oh no! One by one, the images disappeared. The surveillance footage on the big screen in front of Conan is disappearing one by one.

"What? These images are recorded by surveillance cameras and stored on a computer server, in which case someone has deleted the footage stored in the server......"

'Damn, he preempted it. Conan slapped the table in front of him in annoyance.

"Don't have any other images that you can use?"

"If it's a live view, you can monitor it."

"Switch now!" Fujii Kazusa gave the order, but Conan had no hope for it, as an exotic spy who could infiltrate the Aegis ship, he would certainly not make a low-level mistake caught by the surveillance cameras. 'It seems that the only way to do it is to start with courage, and if you can ask for the route that X often passes, and send the crew to focus on the squatting, you may still find his traces......

"There is news from the Osaka Prefectural Police that Takekawa is most likely on his way to Kansai International Airport." The communicator delivered the message from the headset, "What! Could it be that he was going to leave Japan directly by plane? ”

"I will immediately request assistance and support from the Coast Guard base at Kansai Airport." The Coast Guard officer took the initiative to take on this responsibility.

"I'll also contact the air police at Kansai Airport and ask them to cooperate with our actions......," Officer Twilight said, but Hattori Heizo, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police and the first to know the news, naturally made arrangements for it.

……

On the deck, the children are still looking for the treasures that Mr. Inoue has hidden, "I'm very sorry, because the wind and waves on the sea are getting stronger, the scavenger hunt on the deck has to be temporarily suspended, and the next activity will be arranged in the restaurant, so please return to the cabin first." "The crew began to empty the deck of tourists, because X's identity has been revealed, and it can be determined that he is mixed with the passengers to board the ship, as long as these ordinary passengers are arranged to carry out activities in the dining room, then whether on the deck or in the cabin, as long as they meet someone who is not the crew of the Aegis, it will be very suspicious.

"Conan? Where are you? Ran searched for Conan on the deck.

"Miss, I'm sorry, because the wind and waves at sea are gradually increasing, and the deck is no longer very safe, please hurry back to the cabin."

"Did you see a little boy with glasses?"

"Is it lost?"

"Should...... Probably not, but I didn't see him. ”

"Then please return to the cabin first, the deck is about to be cordoned off, and if we see him, we will let him meet you in the dining room."

"Okay, thank you very much."

……

The CIC computer has been connected to all the surveillance cameras in the Osaka Prefecture area with the cooperation of Hattori Hirasusa, and soon they found the trace of Takekawa, "The target has been found!" At Kansai International Airport, the similarity is 89%, and it is certain that it is Takekawa himself! The footage was taken from a monitor in front of Gate 3 on the north side of the terminal. ”

"Notify the Osaka Prefectural Police immediately!"

……

As the only witness other than Conan who knows what X looks like, Courage also takes the initiative to take responsibility for catching spies, and wanders around the cabin with a member of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, hoping to find X's traces.

"Excuse me, can I ask where the toilet is?" This voice is...... X! There was a muffled thud, and the member of the Self-Defense Forces who walked with Courage had been knocked unconscious with an iron rod, "What's wrong?" Guts? You think you'll be able to catch me with him? How could I possibly let you know my habits and looks alone? Stand up! Do you want to kill your father? X, who had regained his courage, took him to the deck, avoiding all the surveillance cameras and the search range of the members of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, and now the cabin was full of crew members searching for his location, but the deck, which had been cleared beforehand, was empty, just suitable for him to hide.

Xiao Lan, who was standing near the bridge looking for Conan, happened to see this scene, "Huh? Isn't that Courage and his dad? Didn't they know that visitors were already banned from the deck? Uneasy, she decided to catch up and take a look, and asked them if they had seen Conan.

"Until the next patrol passes through here, you stay here honestly and don't move, as long as you do what I say, I will let you see your father." X is clearly upset by Courage's betrayal, and repeatedly uses his father to blackmail him.

"Excuse me, did you see Conan?" Xiaolan also walked around the small door on the side to the deck, "It's the little boy with glasses who stayed with me before." ”

"No, I didn't see it. It's easy for children at this age to get lost, and the courage I just got back, it seems that we all worry a lot about children getting lost. ”

"Yes, it's not easy to be an adult, courage, have you seen Conan?"

"No... There is no ......"

"Goodbye, then, courage." Lan beckoned to them and returned to the cabin.

X, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly saw Xiaolan walking back again, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, now the deck is forbidden for tourists to enter, I heard that the wind and waves at sea are too big and unsafe, you should go back to the cabin quickly." ”

"I see, I said why there was no one on the deck. After a while, when Courage stopped getting seasick, I took him back. After a long time of psychological struggle, the courage decided to ask Xiaolan for help, he broke free of X's hand holding him, and ran in the direction of Xiaolan, "Sister, save me, this person is not my father, he is a spy!" ”

"Courage, don't you know what the consequences of doing this will be? You don't want to see your dad anymore? X continued to whisper and threaten Courage. However, Courage has decided to help everyone catch this spy who threatens national security, so naturally he will not compromise easily, he continued to run in the direction of Xiaolan, and shouted for help, "This person is not my father, he is a spy who came to the Aegis ship to steal intelligence!" ”

Xiaolan suddenly recalled the whole process of meeting Courage on the ship, whether it was when he shook violently in the CIC or when he watched the Seahawk helicopter take off at the stern of the ship, Courage He was a person, where would anyone's father be relieved to let such a young child play alone on the Aegis ship, "You are not his real father, right." Courage, come here! Lan took her courage behind her, "You go to the captain and Officer Twilight for help." Whispering to Courage to ask for help, Xiaolan was ready to stop the foreign spy first.

"You stupid woman, if you weren't nosy, you could still save your life." X is ready to kill Xiaolan here.

Seeing that Courage had run into the cabin and asked for help, Xiao Lan also quickly rushed to X who was standing on the other side of the deck, and after running fast, Xiao Lan's bounce power was also enhanced, and she jumped up to a person's height, and a flying kick hit X's arm, and his body couldn't help but take several steps back. Xiao Lan rushed to the edge of the deck, and with the help of the railing on the deck and the power of her body rushing forward, she jumped up again, this time much higher than just now, nearly 3 meters high, and quickly turned in the air, strengthening the power of the whip leg, and swept one leg in X's face, kicking him out directly.
