Chapter 89 A fruitful journey
Conan was just about to secretly tell the Suzuki couple the identity of the murderer when he saw a few children waking up and running out.
At night, the children were awakened by Mrs. Tsuchiya's scream and went out to check. At that time, the doctor put the children in Huibara's room just in case. So the children kept pestering Huibara and clamoring to go out to solve the case. They didn't fall asleep until five or six o'clock, and finally woke up at this time.
However, children's memory is only as good as that of a day in May. Once they wake up, they have already forgotten what they did before going to bed.
"Good morning, Yayoi-nii, Hiro-nii." Ayumi carried her pink bag, "By the way, Conan, we are going to watch the Kamen Rider play later. Do you want to join us?"
Conan shook his head. He hadn't resolved his issues yet and was in no mood to watch the show. "Let Xiaolan go with you. I just talked to her."
Ayumi didn't force it. Since there was a case at hand, Conan would definitely be more interested in it.
"Good morning, kids. By the way, this is the bracelet I promised you yesterday. You and Huiyuan can each have one." Kazukage Yayoi smiled and handed over two bracelets. One was a red garnet, decorated with red hearts and black plum blossoms, with a thin silver chain hanging under the gem bracelet. The pink crystal one was decorated with Hello Kitty and cherry blossoms, and a four-leaf clover that could rotate, which looked very cute.
"Wow, so beautiful! Did you win it, Yayoi-niang? That's great, thank you!" Ayumi cheered and couldn't wait to put on the bracelet, "Wow, it's perfect, so great. Ai, you should try it too!" Ayumi raised her hands happily and waved at Haibara.
Xiao Ai was also very satisfied with the bracelet, which was simple and clean, cute and sexy. She took the bracelet and put it on her hand, admiring it with satisfaction, "It's really beautiful, thank you."
Kazukage Yayoi smiled gently, then turned to the boys and said, "You have one too, although it's not a bracelet."
Kazukage Yayoi took out two metal pendants and handed them to the two children, "Kamen Rider's Transformer Pendant, you can hang it on your schoolbags."
Genta and Mitsuhiko's eyes lit up and they ran over, "Thank you, Brother Yayoi! By the way, where's Conan? Conan, didn't you receive a gift?"
Hearing this, He Jing Yayoi was stunned, then slowly took out a pendant with 221B written on it from his pocket, "I forgot to give Conan's. Come on, Conan, I'll make it up to you."
Conan didn't want Kamen Rider, but he couldn't refuse Sherlock Holmes. Conan, who didn't want it at first, happily took the pendant and put it in his pocket.
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at these things with confusion. Were these gifts available when he played games before? How come he had no impression of them at all? Moreover, the size of this bracelet was just right, as if Jing Yasheng had re-stringed the beads on the bracelet. This was somewhat unreasonable. Who would leave so many important things unattended and string bracelets for a child?
Noticing Morobushi Kagemitsu's gaze, Kazukage Yayoi shrugged and said, "I don't have any more, but Hiro, you have friends after all, so I can give you one more." Then he handed Morobushi Kagemitsu a silver hyacinth necklace.
Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned and looked at the necklace in his hand. Hyacinth? It really has a deep meaning. Resurrection from the dead, reborn love, eternal remembrance, which flower language does He Jing Yayoi want to say?
More importantly, the hyacinth flower has another meaning: ignite the fire of life. Knowing that there is a fire spirit cult on the ship, the flower meaning of the hyacinth seems particularly unlucky.
Why is the Fire Spirit Cult's emblem not a hyacinth but a rose? Hyacinthus is obviously in line with their teachings, isn't it?
However, although he already understood what Jing Yayoi was hinting at, he did not intend to follow it. Zero had his own plans, and if he rashly recognized him, he would not gain Zero's trust. A friend who died in front of him suddenly appeared three years later and said that he was resurrected by the god of death. It sounds like one of the two parties must have a problem with his brain.
Besides, he had no intention of recognizing Zero. Before he was completely sure of Kazukage Yayoi's position, he had no intention of revealing his identity to Zero. He was tied to Kazukage Yayoi, and if Kazukage Yayoi died, he would definitely not be able to live. If Kazukage Yayoi really stood on the opposite side of Zero, Morobushi Keimitsu didn't want his existence to hinder Zero's thinking.
So whether it was resurrection from the dead, reborn love, or eternal remembrance, he had no interest in bringing these to Zero. So he just accepted the necklace silently. As for the necklace itself, he could still find a way to give it to Zero. Kazukage Yayoi would not suddenly get the idea of giving gifts to children. This thing must have its meaning.
On the other side, Mao Lilan quickly left with a few excited children. Compared with the unsolved cases, it was obvious that Kamen Rider was more attractive to the children.
Ai Huihara used the excuse of looking for Dr. Agasa to stay and chat with Conan, "How's the situation, great detective?"
Conan shook his head grimly. "Although I know the murderer, one is a room attendant and the other is the captain. Jing Yayoi advised me not to reveal the murderer. To be honest, I also think it's best not to. It's too dangerous on the sea."
Huiyuan looked at Conan in surprise: "How could you hold back from telling me who the murderer is?" She reached out and patted Conan's shoulder, saying earnestly: "You have grown up."
Seeing Huibara's actions, Conan rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Hey, hey, I'm not as impulsive as you say."
Huiyuan shrugged and looked around. "Where's that drunk uncle? Why can't I see him?"
Conan also looked over and said, "I didn't notice. When I was asking Ms. Fumiyo just now, my uncle was still there...ah, uncle, where were you going just now?"
Detective Maori ignored Conan and said to the captain: "Captain Mori, there is no point in talking here. I heard that we will stop in South Korea tomorrow. Can you let us know the distance of the voyage? If there is really a murderer on the ship, we can only take advantage of tomorrow's opportunity to escape."
Captain Mori nodded. "Indeed, I can just tell you, Mr. Maori, about our plan for tomorrow. If... Mr. Amuro is really the murderer, then I believe you should be able to predict his behavior and bring him to justice."
Detective Maori forced a smile, "Of course, if that boy Amuro is really the murderer, I will tear his skull off no matter what!"
As he spoke, he raised his fist and twisted it vigorously. From his expression, one could really feel his hatred for Amuro Toru.
Conan held his forehead helplessly and said, "Mr. Amuro, please take care of yourself."
And Kazukage Yayoi suddenly looked straight at Captain Mori, as if something had changed in him. Zhu Fushi Kagemitsu asked quietly: "What's wrong?"
"…Nothing, just that the kids can have ice cream again." Kazukage Yayoi shrugged. Another person whose world line ended early because of his behavior.
Zhu Fushi Jingguang frowned and looked at Captain Mori. He couldn't think of any circumstances under which the other party would suddenly die. However, the two of them followed Captain Mori to the captain's room on the 12th floor. First Mate Fukuyama was standing at the door talking to someone. When he saw them, he immediately looked away. But he had to bow to them out of social etiquette and said, "Um... um, hello, Captain, hello, Mr. Suzuki, and hello to all the distinguished guests."
Captain Mori knew something had happened again when he saw his guilty expression, "What happened?"
First Mate Fukuyama pointed awkwardly at the searchlight on the captain's room window and said, "That light is broken again. I have notified the maintenance department to come and fix it, so I won't bother you, Captain."
Captain Mori frowned and pushed away First Mate Fukuyama. He subconsciously reached for his pocket, but when he felt the empty pocket, he had to stop halfway. His hand had already reached down, so he had to push the window open. He leaned on the window sill and leaned out to check the searchlight. "The bulb has exploded. Let's... forget it. Let's wait for the guests to leave first."
Captain Mori stood up straight, frowned and clapped his hands, then impatiently pulled out a tissue and wiped his hands vigorously. Conan noticed that Detective Maori's eyes stayed on Captain Mori's actions, and his heart skipped a beat.
Uncle, being smart is a good thing, but please don’t be smart when you shouldn’t be smart!
"Wow~ So many machines! Uncle Captain~ What is this~" Conan ran around happily, jumped onto a chair, and pointed at the computer screen.
Captain Mori's face turned very ugly. He walked over angrily, then suddenly realized what was happening. He paused and replied stiffly, "It's the radar image and the voyage record."
He carried Conan off the chair and said word by word: "The buttons here are very important. Young master, please don't move them. If something happens, it will be bad. If you are interested, I can take you to visit after I finish explaining the matter."
Conan smiled brightly, "Okay~ Uncle, didn't you just say you wanted to talk about tomorrow's schedule~ Hurry up~"
Captain Mori's expression softened and he pulled up the schedule. "We will arrive at Incheon Port at 10:00 tomorrow morning. We will be docked for 4 hours, and all passengers can disembark at that time. The crew will also carry out some supplies, so this is the time when security capabilities are the weakest. If Mr. Amuro really intends to disembark, this time period is the best."
"It does sound like that...assuming Amuro-kun is the murderer." Detective Maori smiled sarcastically. "By the way, Captain, I heard that you also fixed the light last night, right? Is it this broken light?"
Captain Mori paused, "Yes, it may be a problem with the purchase of this batch of light bulbs. I will ask the first mate to ask about it later. Next time, we will never use this supplier again. I'm sorry, believe me, the Victory Goddess's purchases are very strict. This is really just an unexpected situation."
Detective Maori laughed, "It's okay, it's just a small matter. Oh, by the way, in order not to delay your work, I just asked the first mate to go to your room to get the tool box. Now that the first mate is back, you can also fix the light. Let the first mate introduce the rest to us."
First Mate Fukuyama appeared at the door with a toolbox. He trembled as he handed the toolbox to Captain Mori, "Captain, please fix the light."
Captain Mori was stunned, a little confused, but still took the toolbox puzzledly, "Thank you."
He opened the toolbox, and when he saw what was inside, his pupils shrank, and he closed the box immediately. He closed it very quietly, but Detective Maori, who had been paying attention to Captain Mori, would never miss this opportunity. He immediately stepped forward, held Captain Mori's wrist and said, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong in the box? Let me see."
Although Captain Mori didn't know why the bloody ball-peen hammer appeared in front of him, he knew that he must not let the box be stolen at this moment! If the things inside were discovered, his crime would be confirmed!
So before Detective Maori came forward, he withdrew his hand, bent down, and quickly took three steps back while holding the box.
Of course, Detective Maori didn't give him a chance to hide, and rushed forward and threw an uppercut. Captain Mori was punched in the face, but he still held the toolbox tightly. He ran around in the captain's room in a panic. The group of people didn't know what was going on, and they didn't dare to hit anyone, so they had to block the door of the captain's room.
Captain Mori, who had nowhere to escape, leaned against the glass window holding his toolbox. He stumbled back and bumped into the window that had been opened before, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"He's going to throw the box, stop him!"
Detective Maori shouted, and First Mate Fukuyama and several crew members on duty rushed over. Although they didn't know what had happened, it seemed to be very important.
Captain Mori kicked a crew member away, then stepped on the window sill, waved his hand vigorously, and was about to throw the box.
First Mate Fukuyama grabbed Captain Mori's arm and said, "Captain, this is too dangerous. Come down quickly!"
Captain Mori held the window frame with his left hand and held the toolbox with his right hand. He had no choice but to kick First Mate Fukuyama with his right foot, "Let go, let go quickly! Someone is trying to frame me, and I can't let him succeed!"
As he said the last sentence, Captain Mori kicked First Mate Fukuyama away and threw the box out with all his strength. The box rolled along the side of the ship and fell smoothly into the sea.
"Captain, it's too dangerous. You've thrown away the box. Come down quickly!" First Mate Fukuyama struggled to get up, holding his stomach, and tried to help Captain Mori.
Captain Mori, who had thrown away the toolbox, also calmed down. He breathed a sigh of relief and bent down to come back, but suddenly his feet hurt and he tilted down uncontrollably. Captain Mori lost his balance and fell backwards, disappearing in front of everyone.
"ah!!!!"
"captain!!!"
Everyone rushed over in panic to check, only to see a bloody trail left by the collision on the edge of the boat, which went straight into the sea.
So this is how he died. Zhu Fujingguang held his forehead in silence. He had nothing to say about his own death. But suddenly he noticed that there seemed to be a barely detectable bitter smell in the air, like the smell of burning plastic.
Kazukage Yayoi stood behind him and complained softly: "Hiro, have you seen Dragon Ball? Although one is missing, it seems to be almost the same now. Is the Fire Spirit Cult collecting work cards as collection materials? They need so many." Then he paused, "Since Mr. Amuro is unwilling to get off the ship, let him do something."
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at He Jing Yayoi in surprise and said tactfully: "Zero is still seriously injured."
Kazukage Yayoi tilted his head in confusion, "Hmm? So what I'm saying is, do something."
...Zhu Fu Jingguang hesitated to speak, okay, it seems that he really needs to hurry up and give this necklace to Zero.
