Conan's Almighty Extraction

Chapter 284 Uncovering the truth (1)

Shiraiwa Maha and Conan left the restaurant and asked the staff of the passenger ship they met on the way if they saw the long-lost Hattori Heiji.

Although some people have seen Hattori Heiji, it was before everyone realized that Hattori Heiji was missing, and they have not seen Hattori Heiji since then, so it is of little use in finding Hattori Heiji.

After a long time, Shiraiwa and Maha came to the control room of the passenger ship and asked the staff inside for clues to Hattori Heiji.

One of the staff, who was tall and thin, had some impression of Hattori Heiji, and replied: "Oh, you said that young man with a Kansai accent, after borrowing the flashlight from him, there is no Come to the control room again."

"That's strange, where will he go?"

Bai Yanzhenyu put away his increasingly dignified mood, and asked the staff: "Well, can you please take everyone to look for it in their respective rooms?"

"It's okay, but I'm afraid he's not in the room." Although the staff didn't refuse, they obviously didn't have hope for it.

Another burly staff member came out of the control room and echoed: "That's right, when we went to find a Mr. Kameda with Mr. Yuzaki just now, we already cleared all the other rooms. I've found it."

After hearing what the staff member said, Conan interjected, "Is there any room that has been tampered with? Because that brother is a detective."

The staff member shook his head and replied: "I didn't find out, because everything except Mr. Kameda's room is locked."

And the tall and thin staff member before also recalled it well, and added: "But then again, Mr. Ebina with glasses, his room is just a suitcase, and the bed is even creased. None, from the looks of it, I haven’t opened the suitcase yet.”

Shiraiwa Maha nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Then can you take us to Mr. Ebina's room to take a look? Uncle and Mr. Samezaki asked me to help collect clues."

"It's… okay."

The staff hesitated for a while, but considering the bad nature of the case on the passenger ship, they finally agreed to the request that violated Ebina Minoru's personal privacy.

After arriving at Ebina Minoru's room, the inside was exactly as the staff said, only a box placed beside the bed showed that the room temporarily had a new owner.

The moment he saw the box, Bai Yanmao suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, his complexion changed slightly, and he walked directly to the box.

When Baiyan Maha squatted down in front of the box, a special tool for unlocking quietly appeared in his palm.

"Click."

Shiraiwa Maha inserted the tool into the keyhole of the box, fiddled with it a few times, and then slowly opened the box.

"It's a ticking time bomb!"

Seeing the items in the box for the first time, Baiyan Maha's eyes froze immediately, because what appeared in front of him turned out to be a time bomb with a timer installed.

However, when Baiyan Maha saw the time set on the timer, he breathed a sigh of relief. There was still a long time before the bomb detonated, enough for Baiyan Maha to dispose of it easily and safely.

"Time bomb?!"

Conan, who followed Shiraiwa Maha, was also taken aback by the contents of the box. After confirming that there was no danger for the time being, he immediately analyzed this new clue.

Shiraiwa Maha carefully closed the box, guessing: "Conan, could it be that the murderer this time is Ebina Minoru?"

"It's possible."

Conan's eyes flickered, and he asked Shiraiwa Maha, "Brother Maha, do you remember when we were in the entertainment room before, Ebina Minoru counted the banknotes when paying for the drinks?"

"This," Bai Yanmao asked after recalling it, "Are you referring to the method he uses when counting money like a bank?"

"Yes," Conan nodded, and continued: "Before when he saw Xiaolan, he inadvertently murmured the name of the female bank employee who died in the robbery that year—Samezaki Mimi. So I suspect that , he and that Samezaki Mimi are likely to be in a relationship."

"Is that so, in other words, Ebina Minoru did it to the three robbers in order to avenge Sakura Miho?"

Bai Yanzhenyu suddenly realized, and then asked a little puzzled: "But when the attack happened, he was basically with us, how did he do it?"

"I don't know about this yet," Conan shook his head, pointing to the dangerous box and reminded, "But let's deal with this thing first."

Bai Yanzhenyu picked up the box and said indifferently: "The sea is outside, just take it out and throw it away."

"Wait, Brother Zhenyu, don't throw it away, it may be useful."

Conan stopped Shiraiwa Maha who was about to take action, and suggested: "Well, tie it to the lifebuoy and use the rope to put it in the sea behind the stern."

"Okay, then do as you say."

Shiraiwa Maha agreed to Conan's approach, took the box in the name of Mori Kogoro, came to the stern of the boat with Conan, tied it to the lifebuoy and threw it into the sea behind, and pulled it with the rope to move forward with the boat.

After finishing all this, Conan took out a transcribed event advertisement from his pocket, looked at the words of the planner Gu Chuan on it, and whispered: "Gu Chuan, the planner of this trip, all the mysteries are Therefore, if the murderer and Furukawa are Kanie, most of the things will be connected, but it always feels weird."

Baiyan Maha looked at Conan who was frowning tightly, and asked in confusion: "Conan, what's so strange?"

Conan stared at the words above, and explained: "The gold watch on the wrist of the scorched corpse, and the seal with Furukawa inscribed on Mr. Kameda's hand, if you know who Furukawa is, this case will be solved." It can be broken."

"That's it"

Shiraiwa Maha nodded knowingly, and leaned over to watch the promotional advertisement Conan was holding, but due to the height and positioning of the two of them, they saw the text coming from the side.

"Huh? This is."

Suddenly, Baiyan Maha found the three characters [Furukawa University] at a [-]-degree horizontal angle, which resembled the three characters [Cai Sanye], so he couldn't help but let out a light gasp, and exclaimed: "Conan, I seem to know that this Guchuan University Who is it?"
