"Yes, there's no sender's address on the letter. They must have investigated me and secretly put the letter into my mailbox. The letter was full of old banknotes, and it said that as long as I take these banknotes to the port staff and show them, the staff will let me board the ship. Isn't it strange?" Hattori Heiji explained, and then said to Shiraizumi Mashi, "I wanted to return the money to the client after boarding the ship, and by the way, see if there is any inside story. I thought you would be interested, so I came to ask you to go with me. I originally wanted to ask Conan to come, but Conan and Detective Maori are out."
"That's it..."
Bai Quanyi pondered for a moment. He had so many women who needed his love, which required a lot of energy. Solving more cases would earn him rewards from the system and more powerful energy. Even if he didn't want to go, he had to force himself to go. This was his job.
"How about it? Do you want to go and take a look together?" Hattori Heiji invited expectantly.
"Well...ok..."
Shiraizumi Masu accepted Hattori Heiji's invitation, and Hattori Heiji was very happy.
Seven five six three two four one zero "Didn't Toyama and Ye come with you?"
"No? This woman Heye is so troublesome. I finally managed to get rid of her and come to Tokyo alone."
"Uh……"
Shiraizumi Masu didn't know what to say. Even if he took Toyama Kazuha in, Hattori Heiji probably wouldn't say anything.
Murder after 20 years
At the port, Hattori Heiji found the staff with the banknotes and the letter.
The staff member read the letter and said with a smile, "I see, you're the detective Mr. Furukawa hired. You really don't look like one."
"Don't underestimate me, I'm quite famous in Osaka. And these two are the helpers I specially found."
Hattori Heiji pointed at Shiraizumi Masu and Irene.
The staff member led the way aboard the ship. "Mr. Furukawa called and said that the detectives he hired don't count."
"Not counting the number of people?" Hattori Heiji followed.
"Yes, this tour group only accommodates ten people," the staff explained. "Everyone else has to answer questions before boarding the ship, but everything on board is free."
"That's quite right." After entering the cabin, Hattori Heiji looked around. It was quite luxurious, just like a high-end hotel.
Coincidentally, the three of them ran into Conan and Maori Kogoro.
Maori Kogoro said: "You guys...why are you here too?"
Maori Kogoro looked at Irene and said in surprise: "Yukiko... I feel like there's something wrong with you..."
Shiraizumi Mashi said, "Let me introduce her. She's Irene, not Yukiko!"
"What!" Maori Kogoro was surprised and envious. Shiraizumi Masu actually monopolized two Yukikos. It was so inhumane. He was trying to capture all the top beauties in Japan. Even the Emperor of Japan would have to kneel down and sing "Conquer" in front of Shiraizumi Masu.
Hattori Heiji rubbed Conan's dog head and laughed: "Haha... Conan, we are really destined to meet. I was sorry that you couldn't come, but I didn't expect that we would come to the same place."
Conan said: "Why is Shiraizumi Masaru here too?"
Hattori Heiji said: "I was rejected by you, so I went to find him."
Conan is not concerned about Shiraizumi Masu, but Irene, who is beside Shiraizumi Masu. This Irene is the personified mechanical life form of Noah's Ark, and she is extraordinary.
The rest rooms here all have two beds in one room, so Kogoro Mouri and Heiji Hattori are in one room, Makoto Shiraizumi and Irene are in one room, and Conan is a child and doesn't count, so he stays in the same room with Kogoro Mouri.
After resting in the room for ten minutes, a group of people went to the deck to get some fresh air.
"Shadow Planner?"
Hattori Heiji recalled, "Now that you mention it, I remember that when I was a child, my father mentioned it. There really was such a person in the past..."
"His real name is Ye Caisan," Maori Kogoro said seriously. "This man's meticulous planning, coupled with his unparalleled skills, often leaves police investigations shrouded in mystery. That's why some call him the Shadow Planner. He works alone, often switching partners immediately after committing a crime. His greatest characteristic has always been not harming anyone during his crimes. However, 20 years ago, during the ¥400 million bank robbery, he accidentally killed someone. Since that incident, no one has seen him since."
Hattori Heiji's expression also became serious. "You mean, he lives next door to us?"
"That's right, but when we went into his room, he was no longer there," said Maori Kogoro, "and now the former detective, Captain Samezaki, is looking for him!"
"But it's strange," Hattori Heiji wondered. "I remember that Shadow Planner should be dead. After the 400 million yen robbery and murder case, a piece of his clothing with bullet marks and blood stains washed up on the shore. My dad told me this..."
"He's not dead at all. That was just a trap he set to evade the police. A man like him wouldn't die so easily in a place like that!" A burly, gray-haired man walked onto the deck and sat down on a bench. He said in a deep voice, "I thought he'd be somewhere happily counting money with his buddies at this time, but I didn't expect him to board this ship."
Maori Kogoro followed and said, "But the statute of limitations for that case expired five years ago. What good will it do if we find him?"
"Come on, uncle, have you forgotten? The statute of limitations for murder is 15 years, but the civil law stipulates that it's still a 20-year period for legal prosecution," Hattori Heiji said. "If the parties involved want them to pay back the money, they must pay it back!"
Bai Quanyi leaned his hands on the railing, looked at the dark sea, and listened quietly.
Judging from what these people were saying, they were planning to arrest someone.
Samezaki Shimaji continued, "That's right. Although Ye Caisan, who is wanted by the police, has passed the statute of limitations, his three brothers are still within it. As long as we can catch Ye Caisan, we can find out the whereabouts of his brothers and should be able to recover at least some of the money. Besides, maybe his three brothers have already gotten on this ship!"
"Then let's wait until the ship reaches Ogasawara and ask the local police to help with the search," Maori Kogoro suggested with a smile. "We're surrounded by the sea here, so it won't be easy for them to escape..."
"No, we don't have time!" Samezaki Shimaji said gloomily, "I told you, today is a very special day. That crime happened 20 years ago tomorrow. In other words, as long as it's past midnight tomorrow, the three of them will be able to say goodbye to their life on the run with a clean slate!"
Maori Kogoro looked at his watch and said, "So, there are only two more hours left..."
After listening for a while, Bai Quanyi felt that he had nothing to say, so he said to Irene, "Let's go to the restaurant."
"Okay." Irene took Baiquan Yi's hand and walked towards the restaurant.
"Hey... Shiraizumi Mashi, where are you going? Wait for me." Hattori Heiji hurriedly followed.
"Me too..." Conan followed.
In the restaurant, Bai Quanyi poured himself a glass of red wine, took some dessert, and sat down to enjoy afternoon tea.
Seeing this, Hattori Heiji and Conan also took some food and started eating.
"So you were going to the restaurant to eat? I thought you discovered something?" said Hattori Heiji.
"No incident has happened, what can I discover?" Bai Quanyi said.
"Ms. Irene, why aren't you eating?" asked Hattori Heiji.
"I've eaten, no need." Irene smiled.
Conan asked curiously: "Ms. Irene, why are you with Baiquan Yi? I remember you disappeared."
Irene replied: "I didn't disappear, but became Baiquanyi's woman."
"Ah?" Conan was surprised. Even the mechanical life forms were not spared. What on earth did Baiquan Yi want to do?
Just then, a woman with short hair came over.
"Huh? You're the detective?" The short-haired woman put her hand on Hattori Heiji's shoulder and said with a smile, "You're quite young!"
Hattori Heiji was put on the shoulder. He turned around and saw a young and beautiful woman. He was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Of course!"
"I'm Nagisa Isogai, who are you?" Nagisa Isogai asked Shiraizumi Masu with a smile again.
"Hello, I'm Baiquan Yi."
"Are you the famous Tokyo police god?"
Bai Quanyi nodded without saying anything more.
"By the way, have you found the person named Ye Caisan, little brother?" Isogai Nagisa asked Conan again.
"No, Uncle Maori and the others are still looking..." Conan replied with a smile.
He attracts young women wherever he goes.
Listening to the conversation next to him, Bai Quanyi paid attention to the people around him.
There was a fat man whose lighter couldn't light, a tall and thin man who came over to give him matches, and a man in a suit who sat silently at another table.
"The fat uncle who smokes is called Kujirai Sadao, the one who lent him matches is Mr. Kanie Norihisa, and the one who has been sitting with his back to us is Mr. Ebina Minoru," Conan noticed that Shiraizumi Masu was paying attention to that side, and whispered to Shiraizumi what he had learned, "The one who talked to us is Ms. Isogai Nagisa..."
Bai Quanyi nodded. He found that the world was really magical, and all kinds of clues kept appearing in front of Conan.
After dinner, everyone sat together and drank again.
Baiquanyi suddenly said: "Hattori, give me your letter of commission."
"Ah? Okay," Hattori Heiji took out the letter and handed it to Shiraizumi Masu, "but what are you going to do?"
"Do you want to see Ye Caisan?"
Baiquanyi glanced at Conan, placed the letter of commission on the bar, and turned it ninety degrees with his fingers.
Conan widened his eyes because of what Shiraizumi Mashi said, and saw that after the letter of commission was forwarded, the original "Furukawa Dai" became "Sai Mitsuha".
Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Shiraizumi Masu in silence.
Well, they actually saw 'Ye Cai San'...
Isogai Nagisa also turned to look at White 27 Izumi, his eyes dull and complicated.
Bai Quanyi ignored the silent gazes of the two and looked at the time. It was 11:31 pm.
Hattori Heiji calmed down for a moment, his expression becoming serious. "So, my client is Ye Caisan, and the one who chartered this boat is also Ye Caisan. What on earth does this guy want to do?"
"Uncle Maori picked up a seal before," Conan said seriously, "with the words Furukawa on it. The seal was taken by a man named Kameda."
"Where is he?" Hattori Heiji excitedly shook Conan, "Where is the man named Kameda?"
"I..." Conan was so confused, "I don't know either!"
"I'll go tell Uncle Mori!" Hattori Heiji ran out the door.
"I'm going too." Conan took a step forward with his short legs and chased after him.
"What happened to them?" Irene asked.
"After thinking about it, he decided to go find Ye Caisan." Bai Quanyi said.
"Do they know where Ye Caisan is?" Irene was curious.
Kanie Korehisa, Kujira Kujira, and Ebina Minoru all had a hint of abnormality on their faces, and Isogai Nagisa was staring at Shiraizumi Masu.
"No," Bai Quanyi finished the cocktail in his glass, stood up and walked to sit next to Irene, "They went to find the person with the seal."
"Mr. Furukawa, who chartered the boat?" Irene pressed. "Is he related to Ye Caisan?"
"Furukawa Da is Ye Caisan. You can turn the word sideways to see." Bai Quanyi did not hide it.
Ebina Minoru and Kanie Kojima had puzzled expressions, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Kujirai Sadao had looked absent-minded from the beginning, and now he seemed even more dazed.
Kanie couldn't sit still any longer and said, "I'm sorry, I should leave soon."
"I would like to chat with Mr. Bai for a while. I am very curious about Mr. Bai." Isogai Nagisa said with a smile.
"Then I'll leave first." Ebina Minoru didn't want to stay either.
"I'm leaving too." Kujirai Sadao also stood up.
Isogai Nagisa nodded, turned to Shiraizumi Masaru with a smile, and asked, "Can we chat for a while?"
On the side, Minoru Ebina was about to pay the bill, but when he searched his pockets, he found that his wallet was missing.
"Here, this is yours, right?" Kanie Shiku handed over the wallet. "I saw it dropped in the hallway, so I picked it up."
After Ebina took the wallet, he began to check the contents, taking out the bills and counting them.
"Please, I didn't take anything from there..." Kanie Shijiu said helplessly.
"Oh, sorry..." Ebina Minoru was still counting the money, "I was just being cautious!"
Seeing Shiraizumi looking at the others, Nagisa Isogai leaned in and whispered, "How's it going? Mr. Shirai, did you find anything?"
Is this woman getting too close?
Shiraizumi Mashi glanced at Isogai Nagisa, then looked at Maori Kogoro, Hattori Heiji, and Conan who had returned, "It's not just me who discovered it, they probably have too."
I have to say that Conan and the others came at a really good time and came back as soon as they got some clues.
Isogai Nagisa turned and leaned close to Shiraizumi's ear: "So, can you tell me what you found out?"
"No," Bai Quanyi paused, turned his head, and whispered, "But your father is indeed dead."
Isogai Nagisa froze in place. Her father was Ye Caisan, and she boarded this ship just to make sure her father was still alive...
"Ahem..." Maori Kogoro glanced at Shiraizumi Masu and Isogai Nagisa. What's wrong with this Shiraizumi Masu? He can attract young women wherever he goes.
"Did you find Mr. Kameda?" Irene asked.
"No," Maori Kogoro sat down depressedly, "That guy must be Ye Caisan. He first boarded the ship under his own identity and stayed in room 101. Then he got off the ship and got on board under the name Kameda. Now he's hiding again!"
"What about Mr. Samezaki? Didn't he come back with us?" Irene asked.
"There are only 2 minutes left until 12 o'clock," Maori Kogoro said, looking at his watch, "Team Leader Samezaki said he will find the last second!"
"Although there's nothing wrong with chasing fugitives, isn't Team Leader Samezaki a little too enthusiastic?" Hattori Heiji asked.
