Chapter 110

The hall on the first floor has fallen into chaos.

"Xiaolan! Xiaolan ——! Squeezing through the chaotic crowd, Mori Kogoro was the first to find his daughter in the crowd.

"Daddy, we're here!" The long-haired girl shouted in the crowd, and was quickly pushed aside by the crowd.

In the hall, acrobats who have boarded boats for circus performances lie sideways next to the stage, as if stunned.

Several people like them, with □□ in their hands, stood guard around the exit, and as soon as Mori Kogoro and the others rushed in, they were pointed at gunpoint, and the gunmen drove them towards the center of the crowded hall.

"How many ghosts, snakes, and gods have been put in this cruise ship?!" Maori Kogoro couldn't help but scold.

The little boy who had an ugly look almost slipped when he heard this.

He wants to know too! How many criminals are there on this ship? Gin will come for a while, right?

"Welcome to tonight's circus show." The woman in the center of the stage looked in the direction of the entrance, then she looked away and gave an unstandard salute to the stage.

"Be careful!"

Amuro reached out and grabbed a girl who had almost fallen, held her to her feet, and hurried to help the others.

The crowd was constantly surging around, no one wanted to stay around the stage, and after the clown woman finished saying 'the rules of the game', the steps that had been retreating turned into a frightened escape.

"Don't squeeze! Watch your step! Officer Twilight's shouts were drowned out in wave after wave.

"If you don't run, it's too late~" The voices of him and Mori Kogoro trying to maintain order didn't play a role in the chaos, and the man on the stage looked at them, and the laughing voice was transmitted down the loudspeaker to all corners of the hall.

With that, she deftly flipped her fingers, quickly lit the match in her hand, and threw it backwards.

Conan Edogawa looked down where the match had slipped and saw only a few pitch-black pipes, which, according to the spatial structure, should be leading to the place where the people had just been.

A 'buzz-' roar flashed in his head, and he jerked his head up at Okiya, "Engine oil!" That's all the oil down there! ”

Before the words fell, the tongue of fire had spread down the oil-sprinkled pipes to the lower level of the ship's cabin, and the sound insulation was not complete, and soon there were chaotic footsteps and shouts of organizing the crew to go to the deck to take refuge.

"Damn...... "The boy gritted his teeth, "what the hell are they trying to do." ”

There must have been a reason for the sudden hijacking of a cruise ship, either for money or for something else, but this group of people has only been creating chaos since the beginning, and has not made any 'demands' of their own.

If creating chaos is an end in itself......

"See this?"

The woman's voice came down the megaphone again.

She flipped the silver coin in her hand and showed it to everyone.

Unfortunately, few people in the audience paid attention to her.

"It's a lucky coin, and now I'm going to throw it into the crowd, and the person who gets hit by the coin is the lucky guest."

She raised her voice and deliberately pronounced the word 'life' very seriously, "It's a game of luck related to life, if it's positive, then you can go back under the stage, if it's negative, when dang - you'll be on your way before you get burned to death!" ”

The completely unbalanced set of rewards and punishments plunged the hall into even worse chaos than before, licking her lips excitedly amid the screams of the crowd, and the woman threw the silver coin in her hand towards the audience.

The metal coin streaked through the air and smashed into the screaming crowd that scattered, and then, in the confusion, was caught steadily by a dusty hand.

"Tsk." Holding the cold silver coin in her hand, Ikekawa Nai narrowed her eyes and looked up at the stage, "It seems that this is a 'repertoire'?" ”

The leader of this group, the woman standing on the stage now, is the outsider who tossed him a coin and told his fortune not long ago.

"Ikekawa!"

Holding on to a passenger who had almost fallen, Amuro shouted in this direction with a worried face.

No one expected him to step forward against the fleeing crowd and reach out to catch the metal coin that was tightly linked to 'death'.

As soon as he called out the other party's name, he saw the man's hand blocked by the sleeve of the kimono.

As Bourbon had cooperated with the other party on countless missions, the blonde man was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at the few people guarding the entrance and exit not far away.

After checking the eyes of Officer Twilight not far away, he carefully followed the crowd towards the door while paying attention to his surroundings to prevent someone from falling and causing a stampede.

"I didn't expect it to be you, lucky guest."

Welcoming the person who caught the silver coin to the stage, the woman put down her microphone for the time being and applauded in welcome.

"There's no need to say polite words, anyway, I was your target."

"If you're too smart, you'll lose your life." The woman pursed her lips and threw the silver coin in her hand to him, "How, anyway, the people in the audience can't hear us now, do you want to catch up on the old days, or go straight to the process." ”

Ikekawa Nai glanced down at the silver coin in his hand, "If you know that the answer that can be found by this kind of investigation will also be lost, then not many people should be able to live long." ”

It's the same silver coin he'd seen before, with an unsheathed sword on the front and a snake corpse symbolizing 'game over' on the reverse.

The woman paused before speaking, "I'm more curious, what did you investigate?" ”

"Creating chaos on a cruise ship and then taking the opportunity to kill me, clumsy means, if I really die, who will believe that there is no rum's first pen in it." Playing with the silver coins in his hand, he glanced up at the other man's ear.

"Rum, this guy has long looked at me unpleasantly, and it's really amazing to be able to endure it to this day. Because of the boss's mission, did he have the illusion that even if he killed me, it was nothing? ”

"That's not something I know." The woman covered her mouth and smiled, "After all, I'm just a nobody who takes money to do things." You don't know how valuable your life is, and Rum has paid us so much, of course we have to do our best, but we can't let the money slip away. ”

"yes, take the money to do things. Same as twenty-one years ago. ”

The woman's expression froze.

She reached out and pressed the back of her ear where Ikekawa had been looking. Apparently there had been another person listening to the conversation between the two of them since just now.

"It seems that you know a lot more than my employer thinks."

Did that surprise him? He really didn't grow any way over the years. Ikekawa's eyes fell on the headset and he spoke to the person on the other end of the headset, "What I didn't expect was that you would take over Rum's mission again and come here again...... It saved me a lot of things. ”

"Listen to this, are you going to kill me in front of everyone to take revenge?" The woman squeezed laughter out of her throat, "Rum asked me to bring you a word ......"

She leaned over and made an intimate gesture, her breath spraying in her ears: "I hate the place where I belong, and I will not be accepted by the so-called righteous path, you, there will be no place anywhere." ”

With that, she distanced herself and smiled, "If you do it now, I'm afraid it will make the headlines tomorrow." Mr. President, who killed someone in the hall, even if you can make the lawyer wash it into legitimate defense, I'm afraid the police will be more wary of you. ”

Over-the-top.

Ikekawa Nai's expression remained unchanged: "Really? Looks like I'm going to have to be more careful. ”

"Do you want to wait until you're out to do it?" As she spoke, the woman's gaze moved upwards and she quickly glanced overhead.

"Why can't it be now?" He smiled.

“…… Right now? ”

In a moment of stunned thought, she suddenly felt a flower in front of her.

The silver coin was tossed high into the air, and Ikekawa pulled out the long stick used for decoration next to him with her free hand, and threw it at the two people next to her, hitting the wrist of the gun.

Seeing that the other party did not choose the key attack, the woman sneered, clenched the pistol in her hand and stepped forward.

The pistol that smashed into the neck was blocked by the dagger, and the side head dodged another bullet from behind, and Ikekawa Na projected the dagger in his hand, piercing the hand of the man behind him, and nailing it to the wooden shelf in the rear.

At the same time, the screams of companions could be heard from the direction of the entrances and exits on both sides.

Ignoring the situation over there, the woman continued to attack, using bullets to push back the chaotic crowd and expand the battlefield to the audience.

After the people who had been guarding the exit were subdued, the passengers trapped in the hall poured out.

"You don't seem to dare shoot." As she stopped the opponent's attack again, Ikekawa narrowed her eyes and whispered.

"There's no way, whoever let the boss mean it's an 'accident', otherwise it's hard to explain to that adult." The woman quickly retracted the attack that had been stopped and smiled, "So I have a gift for you." ”

Gunshots rang from above.

Tian Juying, who left early and led a few people downstairs, returned to the hall on the second floor in the chaos just now, and raised the □□ again.

This time, though, he wasn't aiming at Ikekawana, but the huge crystal chandelier above their heads.

The glass near above shattered, then the chains cracked, and the tooth-aching cracking sound rang out from above, and the shadows cast by the lamps swayed with it.

"Be careful—" shouted Officer Twilight, who noticed the movement, "Run!" The lamp is going to come down——! ”

A vicious smile flashed in her eyes, and the hand that pulled the other party's neckline instantly forced, and the woman directly pushed Ikekawa Na to the open space under the shadow of the lamp.

The hand holding the collar was held behind before it was released, and Ikekawa Na didn't run away or hide, but just dragged back the person who was about to leave.

"Your gift?" He laughed so hard that his shoulders trembled slightly, just like the woman's actions just now, and stepped forward, "Then let's die together?" ”

The woman's eyes widened with astonishment.

She didn't expect the other party to be crazy like this.

Can people really not be afraid of death?

She subconsciously turned her head to look at the other party, only hoping that it was just the other party's hard mouth in the shadow of death, but she didn't expect that there was no trace of fear in those heterochromatic eyes.

"Who is going to die with you?!" Stunned, she struggled violently, her original plan was forgotten, and even when the two of them were dragging each other, they would only take each other out of the designed range, and she struggled to run towards the shadow of the chandelier.

The man easily let go of the hand that was holding her.

The entanglement between the two just now obviously broke the original plan, Tian Juying didn't wait for a good time, and fired the last bullet that completely pierced the chandelier, and the huge glass lamp was still swaying and panting above.

Ina, Ikekawa took a few steps to reach out and patted her clothes, as if she had just been entangled in something dirty.

"Look." He looked up at the other party, "What you just said is so powerful, aren't you still afraid of death." ”

Gritting her teeth and cursing a dirty word, the woman squeezed her □□ and aimed it at the other party's chest, ready to abandon her original plan and fire a fatal shot directly.

She was responded to by another dagger that flew in.

It's not the middle door, and even if you don't dodge, it's just the extent that you wipe the side of your face.

She sneered because of the other party's quasi-head, dodged sideways, and when the center of gravity of her body moved to the other leg, there was a sudden soreness in her knee.

The woman looked down and saw a slender needle inserted into her knee.

"This is what I learned from one person. As long as it is passed through a specific position, no matter how thin the needle is, it can also deprive a person of the ability to walk. The voice came through the chaos and was heard only by the two of them.

Her eyes widened in disbelief, and she fell forward as if she hadn't stood firm for a moment in the confusion.

The ornate chandelier that falls off from the top casts no shadow, like a monster's gaping mouth.

The body could no longer support it to break away from the range where it fell, and the woman looked up in a daze, facing a pair of different-colored eyes.

The black-haired man reached out and grabbed the child who had almost run to the lamp in a panic, blocking behind him, and the corners of his mouth hooked very shallowly as they looked at each other.

When did he find out that there was a problem with the chandelier, when did he plan to use the chandelier to attack him, when did the needle go into his knee, and when did the other party pull her to die together just now......

Questions flew through my head, and everything seemed to be slowed down.

Before the chandelier finally hung down and the ever-expanding shadow was completely enveloped, the woman saw Ikekawa Na toss what she was holding.

The other party didn't know when he got the silver coin back.

The metal coin drops, is securely caught, and then shows him the side above it.

Aimed at her, it happened to be the back. The dead snake fell to the tree, and beneath it was a thick pool of black blood.

"Thank you for the gift."

With her back to everyone, Ikekawa smiled at her.

"Bang ————"

The shards of glass exploded along with the blood, and the splatters of blood stained half of the face of the man standing closest to him, and the excessive droplets of blood slid down his cheeks. The vibration of the helicopter's wings came from overhead.

"Listen to me—everyone go to the deck at once—" The communicator in his hand 'Didi' rang as Officer Twilight shouted into the crowd after making contact with the support he had called for not long ago.

As they had envisioned, in the midst of the chaos, no one would pay attention to the unlucky guy who had been knocked to the ground by the chandelier.

It's a pity that the position of this unlucky guy has long since changed.

The black-haired man stood in the center of the hall, his black hair and black kimono looking particularly gray in the hall full of colorful and exaggerated decorations and crowded with all kinds of guests, like the only black-and-white shot in a color movie.

Capturing the sight through the layers of hanging ornaments, the man turned his head and looked precisely at the second-floor belvedere.

The blood splashed on the side of his face took on a thick and dazzling red color in the light, and even a few drops of blood fell from the tail of his eye, which he reached out to wipe away without hesitation, leaving a long reddish-brown mark under the green eye.

After looking at each other for a moment, he tugged at the corners of his mouth, his lips moving slightly, not making any sound, but enough for the researchers on the second floor to see the shape of his mouth.

"We'll see you later."

After saying that, Ikekawa Na put away the blood-stained coin in her hand and smiled at him, even her eyes slightly bent because of the smile.

Clenching the syringe containing the clear liquid in his hand, Tian Juying shuddered violently.
