"Yayoi-kun, you're truly amazing, to know even this! We at the police force are very grateful for your help." The fat, hat-wearing police officer's eyes shone with excitement. Altho...
Chapter 76 A fruitful journey
As time went by, Kidd's heart became colder and colder, until he gave up and started to sleep on the sofa. Whatever he did, he would be interrupted by the two people and forced to hand in the small props, as if he was triggered by a gold coin system when he touched something. It would be better to do nothing and just lie down and sleep. Maybe he could keep two small props and use them to escape.
Seeing that Kidd not only lay down but actually fell asleep, Zhu Fu Jingguang was quite shocked. In the end, he had to call the waiter to take a thin blanket to cover Kidd. This kid, isn't he afraid that he will wake up and find himself in jail? Doesn't he understand how serious the crime he committed is?
Returning something after stealing it is at most considered as surrendering oneself, but it is definitely a completed crime. Judging from the number of crimes Kidd has committed, plus his recidivism and the severity of his social impact, I am afraid he will never get out once he goes in. Although the court probably won't dare to sentence him to death because of his large fan base, he will definitely be locked up until he dies.
Maybe, Vodka's sentence was not as severe as his. After all, the organization handled the case very cleanly. Even if Vodka killed 100 or 80 people, in the end, if the police and the public security could produce two or three pieces of evidence in court, it would be considered good.
But Kidd didn't even need the police to look for evidence of his crime. All they had to do was play the videotapes from all the major TV stations, and they would be all evidence. Every angle and every shot would clearly and completely show Kidd's criminal process, criminal declaration, and criminal intent.
Dozens of robberies of valuables (note), and two or three intentional homicides, in the case that neither of them would be sentenced to death, Zhu Fu Jingguang really does not guarantee that Vodka will be sentenced more severely than Kidd. It is probably the difference between 340 years and 320 years. Although they are essentially the same, Kidd is indeed better if you only look at the numbers.
"Wake up, come back with us, Mr. Magician." Kazukage Yayoi finally drank all the cocktails that interested him. It was already 4 o'clock in the evening, and many people had already left. Seeing that Uncle Maori and Miss Tsuchiya were about to leave, they also left together. So Kazukage Yayoi woke up Kid who was sleeping.
"Together?" Kidd, who had just woken up, rubbed his eyes. Obviously, he was still not awake. He weakly raised his hand to object, "Didn't you say you would let me go?"
"Our room number is 1004, Mr. Mori's is 1005, and the Tsuchiya couple's is 1003. Aren't you going back with us? 1002." Kazukage Yayoi rested his chin on his hand and stared at Kid, pointing at the room card on him.
Kidd was silent. He felt that what the other party said made sense. They were indeed going the same way, but he didn't want to admit it.
However, "Why do you know I'm in Room 1002?" Kidd was quite puzzled. There was no room number written on the room card, so what would it matter even if he saw the room card.
After paying the bill, Zhu Fu Jingguang stood up, patted Kidd on the shoulder, and said in a subtle tone: "Let me tell you something, the sunlight in our even-numbered rooms is quite strong, especially when the sun is setting." So your shadow blocked the light that should have come through the gap in the door.
Morobushi Kagemitsu's eyes swept over Kazukage Yayoi, and everyone present at the time might have seen it, but he didn't expect that even Kazukage Yayoi saw it. At that time, everyone's eyes were diverted to the past, so Tsuchiya Yoshiki stopped arguing, and Amuro Toru immediately gave everyone a way out and asked them to leave.
Everyone was acting. He originally thought that only Kazue Yayoi was not an actor. Now it seems that he did not realize that Kazue Yayoi was also acting. Maybe Kazue Yayoi was the best actor among them.
"Wait, this only proves that someone in 1002 is watching the fun, why must it be me?" Kidd retorted, although he felt that his retort was quite weak. And the sun is setting, it sounds like a curse on his sun to set.
"Someone took great pains to get you on board, so why wouldn't they place you next to the target? You don't think that you got the invitation letter from the Suzuki Group on your own merit, do you?" Kazukage Yayoi stood up and walked out of the bar first, explaining to Kidd.
"Looking at your past methods, you don't seem like someone who would hurt others. Since the owner of the invitation is alive, even if he doesn't go, couldn't he find a subordinate to go, or a relative or friend to go? With the interpersonal relationships of a big boss, he can at least find a hundred people who meet his requirements. If a hundred people can't go at the same time, everyone would suspect that something is wrong."
"So, the biggest possibility is that you will follow your past habits, attack someone, and then change his identity. But you won't really kill him. This is a five-day sailing trip, and the poor gentleman will starve to death wherever he is imprisoned. I heard that you have a companion, unless you leave him behind to take care of and imprison the poor gentleman, and choose to go on the ship alone. However, I don't think you dare to do that. Magicians never perform magic without preparation, let alone large-scale magic without an assistant."
"The most important thing is that Mr. Suzuki has not received any calls until now. Although he is at sea, it is not difficult to communicate. So you did not attack anyone, so how did you get your invitation letter? There is only one possibility, it was placed in the gem box from the beginning. The person who invited you on board also gave you the invitation letter, so you don't want to go back to 1002, right?"
Kidd: ...You are right, I can't refute it.
"And we were right at 1004. There was hardly any sound coming from 1002. I'm not bragging, my hearing is very good. I only heard the door of 1002 open once, and along with the sound of the door opening, there was also the sound of wheels rubbing against fabric. But when I went out, I saw that the door of 1002 was closed. The cleaning staff will open the door when they clean the room. You disguised yourself as a cleaning staff, entered 1002 to search, and then heard the quarrel at the door, and wanted to see what was going on, right?"
Kidd: ...Can I say it's wrong?
"I say all this because since you don't want to go back to 1002 to sleep, you have to find a place to sleep. Share a room with us. Since we're already at the door..." He Jing Yayoi stopped.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Fujingguang looked ahead. Detective Maori was opening the door, and Ms. Tsuchiya in the distance was also opening the door. Nothing...ah...he saw
The Soul of Yoshiki Tsuchiya
"This is really interesting." Kazukage Yayoi pinched his chin and thought for a while, "Hiro, how about you play a game?"
What?
"Ah!!! Husband!!!" Tsuchiya Jiahezi, who had just opened the door, let out a loud scream, and her legs went weak and she fell to her knees at the door.
Everyone nearby opened the door and rushed out. Although Uncle Maori was quite drunk, he was still frightened and sobered up immediately: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Although his mind was clear, his body was still out of control and he stumbled forward a few steps. Only Conan reacted the fastest. He took advantage of his small stature and ran directly past Jia Hezi's legs.
A body was lying face up on the sofa in the middle of the room. On the right side of the sofa, there was a broken red wine glass. The stains of red wine had stained a carpet, revealing a dark brown color. There was a very thin incision on the neck of the body, which cut off Tsuchiya Yoshiki's trachea and carotid artery from top to bottom at an angle of almost 45 degrees. Blood flowed down his neck and onto the sofa, dyeing the orange sofa into a gradient orange-red color.
It looked like the murder weapon was something like a piece of steel wire. Conan looked around and saw nothing. There was no strange mechanism or strange objects. It was clean and tidy, as if it had just been cleaned by the room attendant.
Conan searched the body from top to bottom, searching for items on it, then slowly took out a room card from the body's pocket.
The room card... is in the deceased's pocket... Conan suddenly turned his head to look at Jiahezi. The murderer could only be someone who had another room card - Tsuchiya Jiahezi!
Because a room card is required to enter and exit the Victory, and now Tsuchiya Yoshiki's room card is in his possession, if the murderer wants to leave the room after killing someone, he must have a room card that can open the room.
Zhu Fushi Jingguang obviously understood what Conan's gaze meant, but he did not agree with Conan's conclusion. Tsuchiya Yoshiki's corpse spots were very slight, and it was obvious that Tsuchiya Yoshiki had been dead for no more than 4 hours. And the time they entered the bar and saw Detective Maori and Kako was 11 o'clock in the evening. And Conan didn't know that the employee's card could also open the passenger's door. The murderer might be a staff member on the ship.
If Jia Hezi didn't have the means to kill people remotely, then Jia Hezi, who was under the eyes of Detective Maori the whole time, could not be the murderer. Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned. In that case, who was the murderer and what did he want to do?
"Hiro, why don't you go play a game?" Kazukage Yayoi said calmly, with nothing to be heard in his tone.
What? Zhu Fujingguang looked over in confusion. What kind of game was being played at this time?
Kazukage Yayoi swallowed Tsuchiya Yoshiki's soul and said in a rather subtle tone: "Detective game, you will like it."
