Chapter 330 Don’t worry about Conan

"Brother Beichuan!"

The appearance of Kogoro Mouri interrupted their conversation.

He looked at the two of them, then leaned over to Kitagawa Taki and said, "Something happened on the ship. Yashiro Takie died in the room, and Yashiro Nobutaro's whereabouts are unknown!"

He and the crew members were looking for someone, but they didn't expect to run into Akiyoshi Miwako and Kitagawa Taki in the cafe.

"Excuse me, Miss Akiyoshi!"

Kitagawa Taki followed Maori Kogoro out of the cafe.

Akiyoshi Miwako looked at the backs of the two people with a flickering look in her eyes.

……

"You and Miss Akiyoshi?" asked Kogoro Mouri.

Beichuan Taki said casually: "Oh, I met him by chance on the road."

Maori Kogoro nodded, not doubting his words, and continued to talk about the Yashiro family: "According to my speculation, the Yashiro chairman may have met with an accident."

"Where's that Yashiro Takae?"

Maori Kogoro said: "She was wearing a yukata and had a knife wound in her abdomen. She was probably killed by someone when she just came out of the bath!"

"Speaking of which, on my way to Sister Rei's room, I ran into a suspicious guy wearing a windbreaker and a hood coming out of President Yashiro's room."

Beichuan Taki said: "Then this person is very likely the murderer!"

"Indeed, but the man's face was covered with a hat, so we couldn't see it at all. He was about 170cm tall and thin, so we couldn't even tell whether he was a man or a woman." Kogoro Mouri was a little annoyed.

"It's okay, let's go to the crime scene first."

Maori Kogoro shook his head and said, "No, let's go to the helipad first. The inspector should be here soon."

……

Tarmac.

The two of them hadn't waited for a few minutes when they saw a Metropolitan Police Department helicopter flying over.

After the helicopter landed, Officer Megure took Takagi Wataru, Shiratori Nisaburo and several police officers off the plane.

"Inspector, thank you for your hard work!" Kogoro Mouri walked forward.

Officer Megure greeted the two men separately, then asked, "Has the whereabouts of Chairman Eighth Generation been determined?"

"It's still unclear, the crew is still searching the ship," Maori said.

Takagi Wataru, who was following behind the others, complained: "Come to think of it, Mr. Maori, whether it's in the sky or on the sea, wherever you are, there are crimes!"

Shiratori Renzaburo jokingly said, "Are you going to space next time?"

"How is that possible?" Kogoro Mouri's face twitched. It was just that he happened to be at the place where someone died. How could he confuse cause and effect?

Then, Kogoro Mouri described the situation at the scene to several people.

Afterwards, everyone went to Yashiro Takie's room.

Just as Maori Kogoro said, Yashiro Takie fell by the window in his yukata.

There was a large pool of blood on the ground. The only suspicious thing was that there was another pool of blood that had been wiped off.

Just then, a crew member ran over.

"Mr. Maori, we found the fan of the eighth president at the dock!"

"what?"

……

dock.

Maori Kogoro asked Tsujimoto Kaho, the secretary of Yashiro Nobutaro, "Ms. Kaho, are you sure this iron fan belongs to the eighth-generation president?"

Tsujimoto Kaho nodded: "It's the president."

Inspector Megure asked, "Ms. Tsujimoto, you were the first to discover Yashiro Takie's body, right? Do you remember the time?"

Kaho Tsujimoto recalled: "I remember it was around half past ten."

Inspector Megure pondered for a moment and said, "Detective Tomi, you take two people to stay here to search, and we will go to Yashiro Takie's room."

……

in the room.

Inspector Megure watched the two forensic officers conducting the search and asked Maori Kogoro: "Brother Maori, do you remember when you met that person?"

Maori Kogoro said, "It should be around ten-fifteen."

Inspector Megure deduced: "Then Yashiro Takie had already been killed at that time!"

Takagi Wataru said: "What about the clothes that person is wearing? We can start from that aspect."

"That man was wearing a commemorative windbreaker distributed to the guests on the cruise ship. Everyone had one, including the crew members." Kogoro Mouri shook his head.

Beichuan Taki said: "Let's wait for the results of the investigation by the forensic police!"

Everyone nodded. Now they could only wait.

……

Half an hour later.

Detective Tomi came into the room and reported the search results to Inspector Megure.

The entrance to the dock was stained with Yashiro Nobutaro's blood, the iron fan had fresh signs of damage, and the entrance gate also showed signs of having been opened.

Maori Kogoro deduced: "It seems that the eighth president was attacked by someone at the dock, and then was pushed into the sea from the dock entrance!"

"That's probably the case." Officer Megure nodded and said to Shiratori Renzaburo, "Brother Shiratori, contact the Japan Coast Guard immediately and start a search in the nearby waters!"

"Yes!" Shiratori Renzaburo immediately left the room.

Kitagawa Taki said: "Officer Megure, there is one more thing to note. Why did Yashiro Nobutaro go to the dock? No one except the crew usually goes there."

"I think he must have been coerced!" Maori Kogoro said firmly, "We can investigate the social connections of the eighth president."

Inspector Megure pondered and said, "Indeed, the deceased's belongings have not been touched!"

"Inspector, there are no signs that the door has been pried open. The murderer may have used a master key." Takagi Shigeru reminded.

"Who has the master key?" Inspector Megure looked at Tsujimoto Kaho.

"Quite a lot, including me, the guards, and the director-level waiters."

After saying that, Tsujimoto Kaho hesitated for a moment and then said, "I lost a master key before."

"What? When did that happen?" Inspector Megure asked hurriedly.

Tsujimoto Kaho said, "It was lost three weeks ago after Mr. Kusaka's interview."

"Mr. Kusaka?"

Kitagawa Taki helped explain: "Kusaka Hironari, a screenwriter, said he wanted to write a script about cruise ships."

"Mr. Kusaka is very suspicious!" Inspector Megure ordered, "Brother Takagi, go and get him over here!"

"Yes!" Takagi Shigeru saluted and left the room.

At this moment, a police officer's exclamation attracted everyone's attention.

"Little boy, why are you here!?"

Conan scratched his head and came out from the corner of the room.

He had discovered the murder a long time ago, but because he was worried that he would be thrown out of the scene by Kogoro Mouri, he simply hid in the room.

"What are you doing sneaking around like that, kid!" Mouri Kogoro slapped Conan without hesitation, but Conan dodged it.

Kogoro Mouri was about to grab Conan by the back of his collar and chase him around the room.

Inspector Megure's face twitched, and he said helplessly: "Brother Maori, don't worry about Conan, he has been listening for so long anyway."

Only then did Kogoro Mouri stop.
