"Oh, summer, you are so hot; sea, you are so blue!"
Songjiang Shigure looked at the brand new snow-white cruise ship in front of him and couldn't help but compose a poem for the sky.
System: “…Fuck!”
Standing in front of the cruise ship and singing the sea to the sky, what kind of logic is this that will drive the system crazy.
Matsue Shigure: "What swear words are you using, you silicon-based creature without any artistic cells."
System: “??? Listen to what you are saying?”
The player is now standing next to the pier, carrying a suitcase, looking up at the sky like a lost mentally retarded child.
This ship was the destination of this trip. Songjiang Shigure was still thinking about what reasonable reason he had to board the ship, but he didn't expect that everything had been arranged.
He only worked out the plan with Shuichi Akai and didn't tell Toru Amuro... hoping that the reliable FBI could safely take down Rum.
"Matsue!" Enomoto Azusa, wearing a sun hat and a light-colored dress, trotted over. "I guess I've been waiting for a long time."
"Not bad." Songjiang Shiyu helped her carry her luggage and said, "It's still early now."
Azusa Enomoto was a little disappointed: "Really? I was going to bring Mr. Amuro along, but he was busy working part-time."
Matsue Shigure echoed: "That's right, it's too exciting!"
Azusa Enomoto grumbled: "But this was originally Mr. Takada's opportunity. Hey, how come he just happened to be sick? The invitation was wasted..."
Matsue Shigure touched the three or four identical invitation letters in his pocket and was speechless for a moment.
Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji said they had work reasons and got him an invitation to go on board; Akai Shuichi also gave him one because of the plan; then Edogawa Conan also sent him one; and finally there was Enomoto Azusa -
This one by Azusa Enomoto should be the one that Rum secretly put on.
All I can say is that Rum can't even send an invitation letter as fast as the red team, so how can we beat him!
"Ah! It's Brother Songjiang and Sister Xiaozi!"
"Genta! Ayumi! Stop running around!"
Under the blue sky, the young detectives in summer clothes were running towards them, carrying their luggage. Behind them were Kogoro Mori and his family, and Suzuki Sonoko.
The excited Yoshida Ayumi flew directly in front of Matsue Shigure like a happy little bird.
Matsue Shigure opened his arms, squatted down and gave her a big hug: "Long time no see~"
Children are so cuddly!
"It's been almost a month since I last saw Brother Songjiang!" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya ran over breathlessly, "We thought you didn't work at the cafe anymore."
Matsue Shigure said with a smile, "I just took a break... So, are you guys here to visit the Victory Goddess?"
"Yes, it was Sonoko who invited us to come together." Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's eyes sparkled, "It's really great!"
"Hahaha, that's a must!" Suzuki Sonoko, who was following behind, laughed out loud without any image when she heard the compliment, "This is the most advanced ship model, the most unique design in Japan!"
She pointed to the big ship in the distance and said, "Although it's called the Victory Goddess, it actually has two hulls. The Victory is where we stayed for the first two days to eat, drink and have fun. There's also a parallel cruise ship next to it called the Goddess. We'll hold a development press conference on it on the last day!"
"The two hulls are connected in parallel by iron cables, and there is a unique hatch for yachts, which makes it very convenient to come and go~"
"When you get up there, you can not only enjoy delicious food from all over the world, but you can also swim, dance, and watch plays! We've even invited the most luxurious dance troupe! Little devils, don't thank me yet!"
"Thank you, Sonoko-sister~"
Azusa Enomoto also exclaimed, "Wow!" and said in support, "This is amazing!"
"So who is this gentleman——?!"
Just as Suzuki Sonoko was feeling proud, she saw Matsue Shigure standing beside her. She immediately restrained her image and acted like a lady, but her eyes were almost shining.
Songjiang Shiyu suddenly showed a brilliant smile: "My name is Songjiang Xunye, you can just call me Songjiang."
Suzuki Sonoko immediately said enthusiastically: "What a nice name!"
"Hahaha, thank you for the award."
"By the way, what does Songjiang do? A model?"
Edogawa Conan couldn't help but reveal his half-moon eyes. Hey, this guy really doesn't remember that he has a boyfriend...
Next to him, Haibara Ai couldn't help but roll her eyes. She really couldn't figure out why Matsue Shigure pretended to be so passionate.
"Matsue-kun works at Café Poirot." Mao Lilan said with a smile.
"Hey, Brother Matsue." Edogawa Conan tugged at the corner of Matsue Shigure's clothes and asked curiously, "Why are you wearing glasses today?"
"Oh, yes, Brother Songjiang is wearing glasses today!" The few people who were overwhelmed by the reunion only reacted now.
I saw that the blond young man in front of me was wearing a pair of silver-chain glasses. The thin chains hung on both sides of his cheeks, and the ends were blocked by his loosely tied hair. His eyes, as if deep in the sea, looked more unpredictable through the lenses.
Conan Edogawa no longer dared to treat Matsue Shigure as a brainless idiot.
Shuichi Akai told him Matsue Shigure's real name, and Conan Edogawa went back to look up the information. Then, he clearly realized how powerful the other party had been in the past.
You should know that Kogoro Mouri, who was once the best shooter, has been praised for many times, and Matsue Shigure's ability in bomb disposal is still legendary in the Metropolitan Police Department.
Not to mention that he is Mr. Amuro's instructor.
Although no one knows what happened later that caused Matsue Shigure to become such a weak state now, Edogawa Conan has now regarded him as an absolutely reliable member of his team from the bottom of his heart.
The only thing that bothered Conan Edogawa was that Haibara Ai obviously knew Matsue Shigure, but no matter how he asked, Haibara Ai remained silent and just said that she liked the atmosphere around him.
As for Brother Songjiang, he seems to be wise but appears foolish!
"Don't I look good like this?"
Matsue Shigure had no idea that Edogawa Conan was secretly criticizing him. He pushed his glasses, smiled with just the right arc, and gave a charming look to several people.
"!" Junior Detective Team.
"!"Suzuki Sonoko.
"..." Enomoto Azusa, who claimed to understand someone's nature, was embarrassed.
"Good, it looks good." Yoshida Ayumi blushed. Beside her, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya looked at Matsue Shigure with some resentment.
The system couldn't help but complain: "Are you a peacock? Why do you spread your feathers without moving?"
Songjiang Shiyu said mysteriously in his heart: "You don't understand, this is just to take advantage of the rich woman's aura."
System: “…”
Should it tell Matsue Shigure, Suzuki Sonoko's jealous boyfriend, that he can dismantle Gundam with his bare hands?
Suzuki Sonoko suddenly clenched her right fist and tapped the palm of her left hand: "I remember! It's you! The blindfolded boy from the dokidoki cafe!"
Everyone: “Eh——?!”
Suzuki Sonoko squatted down and began to draw the phone for the others to see: "Let me look for it, but I remember saying it was a handsome guy who was abstinent and cold. Maybe I remembered it wrong?"
But when she pulled out the photo, the children all said with certainty: "It must be Brother Songjiang!"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya thought: "Brother Songjiang was so serious when he was working in the toy factory!"
Yoshida Ayumi looked at the photo and murmured: "So handsome..."
Kojima Motota scratched his head and asked, "So why do you have to cover your eyes? Won't you fall when you walk?"
Suzuki Sonoko said confidently: "What do you know, kid? This is a super eye-catching outfit! Matsue-kun is so dedicated, he must have practiced in advance!"
She covered her face with her hands excitedly and looked at Matsue Shigure: "Matsue-sama, please take a photo with me!"
Those who knew the inside story and those who didn't were all silent.
The young detectives recalled the salty look of the blond young man on weekdays and showed an indescribable expression.
Enomoto Azusa still felt a little scared when she thought of Matsue Shunya who had been particularly cold during those days because of his impaired eyesight.
Haibara Ai and Edogawa Conan, who knew the inside story, looked at each other, and the aura around them became a little darker.
——It’s not practice at all, I’ve just become accustomed to it.
Looking at Songjiang Shigure again, he was still smiling and looking gentle, as if he didn't care about the wound at all.
"Hey, hey, have you guys had enough of chatting?" Maori Kogoro, who was bored nearby, couldn't help but said, "Come on, come on, it's so sunny, hurry up and get on the boat!"
The group staggered onto the deck of the Victory and exchanged their invitation letters for room number tags.
"The schedule of the event is posted in each room, and everyone can follow the schedule when the time comes!" Suzuki Sonoko said, with her hands on her hips, "Remember to attend the masked ball tonight!"
"Then I'll go back and rest for a while."
Matsue Shigure said goodbye to them gently and did not act like he was very familiar with Haibara Ai and the others.
********
"Do you think there is any deep meaning behind Brother Songjiang wearing glasses?"
Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara walked side by side in the corridor, talking in low voices.
Today the little detective was wearing a very refreshing pair of short-sleeved shirt and shorts, while next to him, Haibara Ai, was not only wearing long-sleeved shirt and long pants, but also a big duckbill cap.
Huiyuan Ai rolled her eyes: "Can't it just be because it looks good?"
"It shouldn't be that simple!" Edogawa Conan muttered, "Matsue-san is not that superficial, could it be like my glasses, with some special functions?"
Huiyuan Ai was helpless: "Big Detective, if you are so curious, why don't you go ask him? What's the point of telling me?"
Conan Edogawa smiled awkwardly: "I don't think this is too good..."
Matsue Shigure's identity is like peeling an onion. Every time you peel a layer, you will find a lot of discoveries, which also makes Edogawa Conan want to cry.
The young detective felt guilty when he thought of his previous attitude towards Matsue Shigure.
The reason I sent the invitation letter to Matsue Shigure's "Victory Goddess" was to let Matsue Shigure relax and express my apologies at the same time.
However, seeing the sudden change in Matsue Shigure's outfit, Edogawa Conan couldn't help but think about it again. Could something else happen on the boat this time?
"Instead of thinking so much, I think you might as well just ask him directly." Huiyuan Ai said a little jokingly, "That guy likes you so much, he will definitely tell you!"
Conan Edogawa's eyes: "Huh?"
He was about to say something when a group of people appeared around the corner and walked towards them.
There were two men in police uniforms leading the group, and in the middle was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, who was talking to a person who looked like a secretary, and behind him were several guards.
Conan Edogawa saw Miwako Sato, Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda walking in the team, and they all changed into police uniforms.
The young detective stepped aside and smiled at a few people, and also received friendly looks from the police officers.
But when Conan Edogawa continued to talk to Haibara Ai, he found that the girl who was fine just now was now facing the wall, hugging himself, and trembling all over.
"Graybara?!" His face changed, and he whispered quickly, "Did you feel anything?"
"The organization..." Huihara Ai's face turned pale, her nails almost digging into the flesh, she murmured, "Among those people, there are people from the organization!"
In the ranks of police and political bigwigs, are there organized people?
Edogawa Conan widened his eyes in disbelief.
Ai Haibara thought of the conversation between Matsue Shigure and Akai Shuichi, and thought of Rum.
The fear that has accumulated over the years towards the organization and the mysterious second-in-command has made Haibara Ai somewhat unsteady.
Songjiang Shiyu's attitude of not revealing anything made her feel cold in her heart.
...Will a dangerous plan that even Shuichi Akai disagrees with be brewed on this ship?
****
"Kazami."
"Mr. Fūya, according to your instructions, the optical simulated bombs have been replaced and installed on the bottom of the Goddess. I just checked and found nothing abnormal."
Yuya Kazami's voice was very energetic: "The whole process was not discovered by anyone else."
"I know." Toru Amuro walked on the deck of the Victory in his work clothes. He now had black hair and black eyes, and looked ordinary.
The optical simulated bomb can simulate a strong enough explosion sound and light, but the power is not great. As long as the response is timely, it will not cause too much damage. He has also designed the effect of sinking the ship in advance.
He asked, "Is there anything unusual about the entry and exit registration of the Picasso Building?"
"No." Yuya Kazami said, "Since you booked the presidential suite on the top floor, no rooms on the upper three floors have been moved, but no one has gone there either."
Amuro Toru said with some concern: "Don't get too close to the surveillance, so as not to alert the enemy. Prepare for action tomorrow afternoon, and then listen to my instructions."
"clear!"
The call was hung up, and Toru Amuro took a rag, pretending to clean the swimming pool, and walked towards the observatory next to the swimming pool.
From the observatory, you can see the magnificent buildings in the distance.
The Picasso Tower is the tallest hotel on the sea, and is equipped with a telescope on the top floor, through which you can see a large area of the sea.
Rum was unwilling to take the risk of going on board, so he asked him to arrange a good enough observation deck, but he did not tell him any other plans.
For example, how will Rum lock on to Matsue Shigure's position, or whether there are any other backup plans.
In order to avoid alarming the other party, Toru Amuro thought for a long time but still did not explain the plan to Matsue Shigure. He just tried his best to minimize all risks in secret.
At the Picasso Building, the FBI will also cooperate with the police to try to arrest Rum...
Toru Amuro folded the rag and hung it on the railing of the observatory. He was so preoccupied with his thoughts that even the mechanical operation couldn't calm him down.
The sunlight at noon was very hot, radiating extremely high heat through the metal railings.
A figure appeared along the outer corridor.
Matsue Shigure was still wearing a simple pair of long-sleeved shirt and trousers. The dark black made his exposed skin look even whiter. His shoulder-length light blond hair was loosely tied up with a rubber band and hung down at the side of his neck. It seemed to be glowing in the sunlight.
He was looking for his room on the map and seemed to sense Toru Amuro's gaze and subconsciously looked up.
The cobalt blue eyes blocked by the silver-chain glasses were not clear, and one could only see the gentle curve of the young man's lips.
"Thanks for your hard work--"
Amuro Toru read his lip movements but did not move. He just watched Matsue Shigure leave with his luggage.
Fortunately, he was wearing a disguise, he thought, otherwise if the instructor found out he was on the boat, he would probably think too much.
Toru Amuro couldn't help but touch his disguise and found that he had curled up the corners of his mouth without knowing when.
