With the quarrel between the eldest young master, Tone Guiyang and Kevin, it was difficult for the rest of the people to stay on the small cargo ship full of treasures.

After Kevin left, everyone left the cavity underneath and returned to the annex.

As for the secret door leading to the hollow, it was completely locked by Kine Takahiro who found a lock from the warehouse.

"Everyone, I'm sorry."

When it was time for dinner, except for the eldest young master, Tone Guiyang, everyone gathered in the hall again from their respective rooms.

Among them, the second young master, Tone Kosuke, suddenly put down the knife and fork in his hand and said:

"What my brother said this afternoon is indeed a bit excessive......"

"Oh? Is the second young master coming to apologize for the eldest young master? Mei Ling looked at him in surprise.

"Yes, especially to apologize to Mr. Kevin." Looking at Kevin, Kosuke Tone said apologetically: "I'm sorry, brother, he's always been this kind of character, and many times I'm helpless, sorry ......"

"Huh? There is no need for this. ”

Kevin glanced at him, still with that hearty smile on his face.

"I don't have the qualifications to care about these myself, if you really want to talk about it, the pampered young master should apologize the most, it should be our university teacher, right?"

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

Kitakamihiko, who was named, seemed to be a little distracted, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized that everyone's topic had come to him again.

"Just talking about you, what was Young Master Kazuhiko thinking just now?" Mei Ling asked with a smile.

"Ah, I'm thinking of Mr. Young and Mr. Clyde's murderers......"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Kita-Uehiko hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I'm a little worried, will the murderer continue to act......

"It's really something to worry about, after all, we don't know the identity of the murderer yet, who knows if the murderer will continue to kill people for what purpose......"

"Detective White River, Detective Mary." Suddenly, Kita-Uehiko turned his head to look at Shirakawa Kiyoshi, who was eating quietly, and asked, "What are you going to do tonight?" ”

"After dinner, I'll go to the Water Tower behind the annex to investigate."

Putting down the chopsticks, Bai Heqing said in a calm tone: "I have observed the situation of the underground cavity before, if I can control the Water Tower to fill the cavity with water, it should be able to let the little freighter leave the cavity and go outside, and then we may be able to leave." ”

Of course, Bai Heqing's words were not true, and there was only one reason why he wanted to get the small cargo ship out of the underground hollow, that is, to facilitate the Black Rose to take the cultural relics on the ship when he arrived tomorrow and complete the transaction between them.

"Why bother." When Kevin heard this, he cut the steak and said with a smile: "Wouldn't it be better to leave by helicopter with me tomorrow?"

I don't know how many years the little cargo ship has been, and the key accidentally sank halfway, and then I will have to feed the sharks! ”

Hearing his words, Bai Heqing was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Okay, thank you."

[Then let's go to the Tower of Water tomorrow morning to investigate, it's all the same anyway.] 】

In the current situation, if he behaves too obviously, he will be suspected by everyone.

"Mr. Kevin, then my brother and I ......" Hearing Kevin talk about the helicopter again, Kosuke Tone couldn't help but speak, looking at him expectantly.

"Ah, let's just go together then." Without refusing or sarcastic, Kevin waved his hand indifferently and said, "Although I hate your brother, I'm not such a petty person, anyway, it's just two more people, both ......"

"Thank you, Mr. Kevin......"

Receiving his answer, Kosuke Tone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's right, Kevin." After the two finished speaking, Bai Heqing suddenly spoke: "The person who cut the telephone line of the annex and blew up the viaduct should be you, right?" ”

"Huh?"

His voice fell, and everyone in the hall, including Kevin, was stunned for a moment.

But soon, Kevin reacted and laughed: "It's really amazing, Detective Baihe, when did you find out?" ”

His words can be regarded as a direct admission of Bai Heqing's speculation.

"As a veteran, you know the use of gunpowder in the warehouse, and you have the ability to make your own bombs.

After stealing the gunpowder from the warehouse, you made a bomb in the tunnel, and at that scene, Mary and I found cigarette butts that had been littered after smoking, and these cigarette butts, along with the cigarette case we found in the trash can in your room, were the same brand.

At the time, I thought you were the one who blew up the viaduct, but there was a lack of evidence to prove it.

It was when you said on the small cargo ship that a helicopter would pick you up tomorrow that I finally determined this.

You'd arrange the helicopter in advance because you had planned to blow up the bridge and trap everyone on the island from the beginning, and the motive was to buy plenty of time to find the legacy hidden on the island, right? ”

"It's all right, Detective White River."

After listening to Bai Heqing's words, Kevin nodded, agreeing with his reasoning.

"That's right, these two things were indeed done by me, after all, the eldest young master's move of inviting you to come to the island to investigate the inheritance really surprised me a little.

As a very curious reporter, I am really afraid that our eldest young master will find more people to come over and find out the heritage of the island before me, which will really be very unsatisfying......"

"So, Kevin, although he blew up the bridge, he wasn't the murderer of the boss and Clyde? Is the murderer someone else? Mei Ling asked curiously.

"Hmm." Shirakawa nodded.

"Detective White River, who is the real murderer?!" Kita-Ichima couldn't help but ask.

But for his question, Bai Heqing did not answer.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through the dark window, followed by a deafening thunderclap.

"Whoa!"

Before everyone in the hall could react, the sound of rain soon sounded outside the window.

"It's getting late, let's get some rest."

Wiping his mouth with a napkin, Bai Heqing stood up and said.

"After tonight, we'll be able to leave the island tomorrow."

Dropping these words, Bai Heqing turned around and left the hall, and behind him, Mary also hurriedly followed.

"White River."

The two left the hall side by side, and it was not until they reached the hallway outside that Mary suddenly asked:

"Do you think something will happen tonight?"

"Why do you ask?" Bai Heqing stopped and turned to look at her.

There was no light in the hallway, and it was pitch black, and the two stood by the window, which was crackling with rain, and Mary said:

"Intuition."

She lifted her hand and pointed to her heart.

"I have a feeling that there was something wrong with your tone when you said that just now."
