When Conan saw Shiraizumi Masu helping to cover up for "107", he suspected that Shiraizumi Masu had known that he was Kudo Shinichi for a long time. After all, his mother listened to Shiraizumi Masu's words and might have betrayed her son a long time ago.
"Conan, the discovery you mentioned, is..."
“No, nothing—”
Conan touched the back of his head in a cute way, and felt that there was no need for his mother to betray him. Even if Bai Quanyi knew about this, it would not be good for him.
Since the murder occurred on Suzuki Tomoko's private cruise ship, the police had to take it seriously after receiving the notification.
So much so that Inspector Megure rushed over by helicopter while the cruise ship was sailing.
Also traveling with them were Takagi and Shiratori.
However, Shiraizumi Yi knew that the real Officer Shiratori was still on vacation, and this one was disguised as Kuroba Kaito.
Inspector Megure greeted everyone and then his eyes fell on Conan: "Why are you always there every time a murder happens?"
Conan blinked his eyes stupidly and could only smile awkwardly.
Inspector Megure then asked, "Superintendent Shiro, since you are already at the scene, have you found anything?"
Bai Quanyi said: "Kanchuan Long was wearing a very precious necklace yesterday, but now the necklace is gone. Could it be taken away by the murderer?"
"Necklace? What kind of necklace is it?" Inspector Megure asked seriously.
Bai Quanyi pretended to recall the past: "Strictly speaking, it's not a necklace, it's a ring, but it was strung together by Hanchuan Long and worn as a necklace. At that time, Miss Pu Siqinglan knew where this ring came from."
Hearing Bai Quanyi's words, everyone's eyes turned to Pu Siqinglan.
Pu Siqinglan was very calm: "Yes, that ring belongs to Maria, the third daughter of Nicholas II. It is very valuable for collection."
"Is that so?" Inspector Megure muttered as he looked at the messy scene, "Could this be a case of burglary and murder? The murderer's goal was to steal the ring? After all, the drawers and cabinets at the scene all showed signs of being rummaged through."
"I don't know about that." Pu Siqinglan shook her head.
Do not!
This wasn't a home invasion at all.
Conan was so anxious that he was running around in circles, wanting to open his mouth and speak out his reasoning, but he felt that he was being stared at by many people.
At this moment, Officer Takagi's voice suddenly rang out: "Inspector Megure, there seems to be something wrong with this pen."
Everyone looked over and saw Officer Takagi wrapping a ballpoint pen in a bag, and on the cap of the ballpoint pen was engraved "M Nishino".
"Is there anyone here named Nishino?" Inspector Megure asked, looking up.
Suzuki Tomoko was stunned: "Nishino, she's my secretary."
Inspector Megure was shocked and said loudly, "Very good, this Nishino must be the murderer. He was probably too flustered during the robbery and accidentally dropped the ballpoint pen at the scene."
"What? It can't be Mr. Nishino who did it? He's obviously a nice person." Ran Mouri turned around in surprise.
The person involved, Xi Ye, turned pale and waved his hands frantically: "I'm not the murderer..."
Conan held the phone anxiously. He couldn't delay any longer. This Nishino was definitely not the murderer. He had to convey his reasoning to the police.
Conan was just about to act dumb and tell the truth, but Shiraizumi Yi had already said everything he wanted to say.
"Inspector Megure, it's obviously impossible for Mr. Nishino to be the murderer."
Inspector Megure looked at Shiraizumi Masu in confusion: "Why?"
Bai Quanyi said: "My intuition tells me..."
Inspector Megure's forehead was covered in sweat: "Hey hey... Inspector Bai, you are famous, but you can't do this..."
Kisaki Eri added: "Inspector Megure, this is clearly a frame-up by the murderer, and it's a very low-level method."
Suzuki Tomoko said, "Come to think of it... I have a candidate for the murderer..."
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Tomoko Suzuki in surprise, the current head of the Suzuki Group.
Suzuki Tomoko stared at Pu Siqinglan: "Last night I was a little sleepy, so I went out to the cafeteria to drink coffee. Suddenly I saw Kanchuan Long walking towards the deck. It was already very late, so I was a little curious, so I took a closer look, and then... I saw you."
Pu Siqinglan was stunned. She was being targeted and she didn't even know it.
"Chairman Suzuki, did you see it wrong?" Feeling that everyone else's gazes were not right, Pu Siqinglan smiled calmly.
"I'm not mistaken." Suzuki Tomoko smiled elegantly, "Of course, don't worry, Miss Pu Siqinglan. I'm not saying you are the murderer. I'm just telling you what I saw."
Kuroba Kaito was also looking at Pu Siqinglan. He boarded the ship this time to investigate the identity of the attacker.
If the murderer is this 0.3 woman, does that mean that she is most likely the bastard who attacked him?
Inspector Megure understood and walked over with a sullen face: "So, Miss, could you tell me where you were last night?"
"I was on deck, getting some wind, because I couldn't sleep..."
Pu Siqinglan has excellent psychological quality and always answers Inspector Megure's questions very well.
But because she had no one to help testify, she still remained a suspect in the police's mind.
Due to the lack of evidence, it is naturally impossible to directly conclude this case.
As everyone left the scene one after another, Bai Quanyi's phone vibrated and someone sent him a text message.
Shiraizumi took out his phone and saw that it was a message from Kuroba Kaito, inviting him to a chat in his room.
467. Yokosuka Castle Exploration
When Shiraizumi Yi returned to his room, Kuroba Kaito, disguised as a white bird, was already waiting for him.
"Kuroba Kaito, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Haha... As expected, nothing can be hidden from you, Officer Bai."
Although Hakuizumi Mashi took away Kuroba Kaito's mother and Hongzi, Kuroba Kaito admired Hakuizumi Mashi from the bottom of his heart. There was nothing in this world that could defeat Hakuizumi Mashi. If Hakuizumi Mashi could help Kuroba Kaito eradicate the mysterious organization, then the mysterious organization would definitely not survive.
Kuroba Kaito said: "I suspect that Pu Siqinglan is the real murderer, and she is the Shi Kaobing who attacked me!"
Bai Quanyi asked, "Were you attacked by the Shikao soldiers?"
Kuroba Kaito said angrily: "She shot me in the right eye and I almost died."
Bai Quanyi said: "You are the number one enemy of the mysterious organization. It is normal for her to want to kill you. However, how do you prove that Pu Siqinglan is the Shikao soldier who attacked you?"
Kuroba Kaito said: "Based on my intuition... Anyway, I just want to ask you if you have found any evidence that Pu Siqinglan is the murderer."
Bai Quanyi said: "No."
Kuroba Kaito shook his head helplessly and said, "Next, we can only wait for Pu Siqinglan to reveal her true colors."
……
In the afternoon, the cruise ship docked at the port and everyone traveled by land to the castle on Mount Yokosuka.
Three cars drove along the winding mountain road, and in the cars were "professionals" who came to help Natsumi Kosaka find another Egg of Memory.
In the afternoon, everyone arrived at the mountain.
"What a beautiful castle!"
Mao Lilan clasped her hands together, her eyes full of envy, while Kisaki Eri beside her said: "This kind of castle is not suitable for living. There are no supporting living facilities nearby. It will be very lonely to live in it."
Tomoko and Sonoko weren't too impressed. No matter how magnificent the castle was, it couldn't compare to the Suzuki family's vast estate. Ai wasn't particularly interested either. She yawned, her interest wearing off.
However, Shiraizumi Mashi, Conan and Shiratori did not join the discussion about the castle. The three were discussing that the murderer was Scott.
Everyone packed their belongings and entered the Western-style castle. Tomoko, Sonoko, and the secretary stayed in the car, waiting instead. The Suzukis had little interest in the castle. Ai, feeling sleepy, slept in the car, also avoiding the entrance.
Entering the castle, it feels like you have arrived in medieval Europe.
In the exhibition room where knight armor was stored, Conan looked around and found that the treasure hunters who entered the castle were all fully armed, and there was a high possibility that there were guns in their bags! In Conan's mind, each of them could be a Scorch soldier.
Soon after, the first person to fall away appeared.
Art dealer Qian Jiangyi said he needed to go to the restroom and left the group, but soon he heard a scream among the ladies he had visited before.
Everyone rushed over to check and found that it was Qian Jiangyi who had secretly come to pick the lock and try to steal the treasure in the castle, but he fell into a trap.
The deacon opened the mechanism and told him not to touch anything here anymore. Officer Shiratori asked him to give up the large backpack of lock-picking tools he was carrying and only gave him a flashlight.
At Conan's suggestion, everyone went to visit the office of the castle's earliest owner, Natsumi Kosaka's great-grandfather.
There are many photos on the wall of the office, and one of them attracts more people's attention.
"This... looks like a photo of Rasputin."
Sergei immediately recognized the content of the photo and explained, "It was because Nicholas II and his family trusted this evil monk that the Romanov dynasty was ultimately destroyed. Almost the entire family died tragically, and only the third daughter is missing."
"The third daughter...is she the Maria in Mr. Samukawa's Maria ring?" asked Mao Lilan.
"Yes." Sergei nodded. "Maria is the best of the four sisters. She has a pair of gray eyes."
Conan looked at the photos on the wall and sighed inwardly that Miss Xiamei's great-grandfather had a very good relationship with the evil monk Rasputin, otherwise the two would not have such a close photo together.
At this time, the somewhat impatient Kisaki Eri lit a cigarette, and Conan just judged that there was a secret passage under the floor based on the direction of the cigarette smoke.
According to the password that Natsumi Kosaka recalled, Sergei entered Russian and opened the combination lock.
Walking into the underground passage, there is a huge space inside.
"Wow, this is really deep!"
Kisaki Eri took out the flashlight she had prepared in advance, and Officer Shiratori also had a flashlight in her hand. Together with Conan's watch flashlight, the others could only follow behind in almost the dark.
The underground environment opened Bai Quanyi's eyes.
This is a huge underground temple. In the center of the temple, there is a baptismal font in the shape of a holy grail, and next to it is a huge stone bed.
"This place seems to have been a place where Christians were baptized..."
Shiratori used a flashlight to examine the baptismal font and stone bed, while others also wandered around the temple curiously.
At the end of the corridor is an arched stone door with a large number of double-headed eagles carved on it.
Everyone was stuck here. Bai Quanyi looked back at the people around him and found that one member was missing.
The art dealer named Qian Jiangyi.
"Everyone, don't you feel like we're missing someone?"
Everyone looked back and found that there was indeed one person missing compared to when they came in.
"Where is Mr. Qian?" Fei Yingli asked in confusion.
Officer Shiratori held his chin in thought for a moment, "Could it be that 107 got separated in that huge hall just now?"
Sergei: "It's also possible that they discovered some treasure trap inside the palace, and that's why they had evil intentions."
Everyone returned to the vicinity of the hall and dispersed to search, and soon heard Mao Lilan's screams in the corridor on their way back.
"what--"
Everyone rushed over after hearing the noise and found Qian Jiangyi lying on the ground with a bullet in his right eye.
When Kisaki Eri saw the bloody hole-like right eye, she immediately thought of Shi Kaobing.
"It's Scorbing!"
……
Meanwhile, on the Suzuki cruise ship docked in Tokyo Bay, crew members were performing routine maintenance on the ship.
While maintaining the lower unit, a pool of dark liquid in the flashlight attracted the crew's attention.
"Mr. Kameno, what is that?"
"Is the oil tank leaking? Go check it out!"
The two crew members rushed forward quickly, but found a shocking object in the corner next to the oil tank.
Blood splattered on the iron wall, leaving streaks of dried blood.
(Remark
On the ground, several severed limbs were piled together in a haphazard manner, with tangled tendons exposed, a disgusting sight.
Beneath these limbs, a torso's head protrudes.
His supposedly gentle appearance now looked a little ferocious.
