The Split-Actress in Conan's World

Chapter 94: The main body rarely wants to take a breath

Early in the morning, Lin Chiyu prepared his own breakfast, a bowl of oatmeal porridge with eggs and two fried sausages.

He didn't prepare any portion for Chiyoko because the kid found an excuse to run to Dr. Agasa's house to get breakfast.

Lin Chiyu was putting porridge into his mouth with a spoon while scrolling the mouse and looking at the Shangri-La page on the computer.

Shangri-La is becoming more and more lively.

Some people collected several recent explosions in Tokyo and suspected that Pramiya, who had disappeared three years ago, had made a comeback, but Pramiya's own account has been silent.

The bounty for Kaito Kidd has increased by another 23%, and almost all the investors who have invested in the bounty want to capture him alive.

The action planner on the list, the shadow planner "Ye Sancai" is suspected to have reappeared in the world.

Lin Chiyu paused when he saw the last post and clicked on it to take a closer look.

To put it simply, about twenty years ago, this shadow planner accepted a commission to rob a bank, but neither the client nor the client completed the reward and no evaluation was made afterwards.

Some curious people found out that a shocking robbery happened in Tokyo at that time, and the amount involved was as high as 4 million yen.

Some people speculated that Ye Sancai saw that the amount of money was too huge and had evil intentions. He disregarded the rules of Shangri-La and attacked his partners, pocketed the money and retired.

Some people also think that Ye Sancai was the one who was deceived. The person who entrusted him was unwilling to pay the 50% originally stipulated in the agreement, so he was abandoned.

But there is still no definitive answer as to what the truth is.

Lin Chiyu narrowed his eyes.

Of course he knew the plot.

The 400 million yen was neither in Ye Sancai's hands nor in the hands of the robbers, but was hidden away to survive the prosecution period.

The second half of the post mentions a mysterious puzzle.

A man named "Furukawa Dai" chartered a luxury cruise ship and planned to entertain the first ten people who solved the puzzle for free to spend two days and one night on the cruise ship. The boarding point was Tiwutsu Port and the final destination was Ogasawara.

Obviously, the so-called "Furukawa Da" is just looking at "Ye Sancai" from a different perspective.

The puzzle is: "What is an important item that almost all Japanese people had during the Showa era?"

As long as you bring the items you think are right on board and have them checked by the crew, you can enjoy this luxurious journey for free.

Of course, the number of places is limited to ten.

The answer is simple.

During the Showa era, the only thing that everyone in Japan had was the Showa-era paper money.

But Lin Chiyu was silent for a moment.

Because he doesn't have this old thing, and even if he goes to the bank to withdraw money now, he will only get the new era, that is, the banknotes of the Reiwa era.

Fortunately, although this "Furukawa Dai" chartered the entire cruise ship, he did not restrict the other passengers from buying their own tickets to board the ship.

It’s just that the itinerary is fixed and won’t be changed, and the boat tickets are very expensive, so probably no one would pay for such a thing out of their own pocket.

How expensive are the boat tickets?

38 yen per person.

Considering the attraction of 400 million yen, Rin Shakuha gritted his teeth and decided to be the sucker.

Although it was not too difficult for him to make money, spending it was another matter.

Regardless of whether it hurts or not, it always feels a bit uncomfortable.

It's like stubbing your toe on the corner of a table, not a big deal, but I still want to cry.

morning.

There is no Jin Port.

Rin Shakuha walked up the stairs to board the ship and handed his ticket to the crew member who was checking it.

The crew member said with some embarrassment: "Sorry sir, this doesn't seem to be the correct answer to the puzzle..."

"I know the answer is old banknotes, but this is a boat ticket worth Japanese yen." Rin Chiyu stared at him expressionlessly, motioning him to look carefully.

"Oh, that's true. I'm sorry, but so far no one has bought a ticket to board our ship, so I didn't react for a moment." The crew member smiled apologetically, took out a stamp to mark the ticket, and stepped aside.

Lin Chiyu walked over, feeling not very happy.

Passing through the boarding hatch is a spacious hall, which is as luxurious as the conference hall of Beihu Hotel. It is not magnificent, but it is gorgeous enough.

He looked up and surveyed the space, when suddenly several familiar voices came from behind him.

Then came the annoying congratulations from the crew: "Congratulations, you got it right, please get on board."

"Great!"

"It's exactly what Conan guessed."

"Haha, what a coincidence..."

When Lin Chiyu turned around, he saw the classic group "Us Three".

"Ah, it's Shakuha-san!" said Mao Lilan in surprise, still holding the old banknotes that had not been collected in her hand.

The joy on Uncle Maori's face had not yet faded, so he looked a little kind: "Rin is here too? Not bad, a free luxury cruise trip."

Conan was not too surprised. He was mainly surprised that it was such a coincidence that Rin Shakuha also saw this activity. Based on his understanding of Rin Shakuha, his IQ made it easy for him to solve this simple puzzle.

He quietly approached Lin Chiyu, grabbed his trouser leg and whispered: "Brother Lin, the manuscript we agreed on last time..."

Lin Chiyu glanced at him indifferently. This kid got on the boat without spending a penny, and he even dared to mention the manuscript in front of him?

"I'm busy. Let's talk about it when I'm in a good mood and go to Kyoto."

Conan felt a little uneasy under his resentful gaze, and unconsciously loosened his hand, saying "oh" timidly.

What? Why is Mr. Lin so cold all of a sudden?

No, he seems to have always been quite cold, and a bit sinister.

That's fine.

"Dear passengers boarding the ship, please check in here." A young and beautiful female stewardess waved to them at the counter in the lobby.

"Oh, okay." Uncle Maori stepped forward with a smile.

"My name is Maori Kogoro..."

"He used to be a detective in the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, and now he's a famous detective that the bad guys tremble in fear of—" An old man with half-white hair but a very strong-looking body walked up from behind them with a teasing smile on his face.

"Isn't that right, Mauri?"

"Officer Samezaki?" Kogoro Mouri turned around and saw the person coming, his eyes widened.

Samezaki Shimaji shook his head slightly: "I am no longer a police officer. I reached retirement age two years ago. Now I am just an old man."

He turned to look at Mao Lilan beside him, and the wrinkles on his face wrinkled along with his smile, showing the traces of time: "Look, Xiaolan has grown into a beautiful girl."

"Hello, uncle." Although she didn't have any impression of him, Mao Lilan still greeted him honestly.

"Why are you here?" Uncle Maori asked puzzledly.

"I just want to see the sea." Samezaki Shimaji's wrinkles relaxed a little, and he was quite emotional.

"Have you forgotten that today is a special day?"

He looked at Maori Kogoro, but soon muttered to himself: "Yes, you resigned ten years ago, it's natural to forget."

He didn't dwell on it too much and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, where is your beautiful wife? Are you still separated?"

"You guessed it right." Uncle Maori laughed dryly and a drop of sweat fell from his face.

"Um, please ask..." A bald, fat man with small eyes suddenly walked over to them in a somewhat stiff manner, and closed his mouth halfway through speaking to them.

"What's the matter?" Uncle Maori looked over.

"No, nothing." The fat man named Terukichi Kameda touched his head and walked away again.

As he turned around, something fell out of his pocket and onto the ground.

Mao Lilan squatted down, picked it up and looked at it. It was a very thin columnar seal.

Terukichi Kameda seemed to notice that his things had fallen, and sweat broke out in anxiety, "Sorry..."

"Here you go." Mao Lilan smiled and returned the seal to him, and Kameda Terukichi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thanks......"

At this moment, a hand patted Kameda Terukichi's broad shoulder.

Kanie Jiku, a long-faced man with middle-parted bangs and a small tuft of beard, held up a key and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

He put his arm around Terukichi Kameda's shoulder and pulled him away.

Another man in a suit and glasses, dragging a heavy suitcase, boarded the ship, breathing heavily.

"This gentleman seems to be the tenth and last vacancy." The crew member in charge of the inspection came up and said to the female flight attendant who was registering.

"Okay." The female flight attendant nodded and looked at the man with glasses.

"Please register."

"My name is Minoru Ebina..." Ebina dragged the suitcase timidly, looking very strenuous.

"Please stay, have we met somewhere before?" Samezaki Shimaji called him thoughtfully.

"No..." Ebina Minoru glanced at him a few times and continued to drag the suitcase with his head down.

"You may have recognized the wrong person."

He left the hall.

Samezaki Shimaji's gaze was still lingering in the direction he left.

Conan stood next to Rin Shakuha, watching everything that had just happened calmly.

Both of them, one big and one small, had their hands in their pockets, looking very relaxed.

"But now we don't have to worry even if something unexpected happens on the ship." The female flight attendant who had completed the registration process joked.

"Because there are three veteran detectives and detectives on board."

"Three people?" Uncle Maori looked around, and his eyes were a little uncertain when he swept over Rin Shakuha.

After all, even though Rin Shakuha helped solve several cases, none of them seemed to be famous in the newspapers, so he should not be considered a well-known detective.

"Do you think there are other criminal police or detectives besides us?" he asked the female flight attendant.

"Yes, there is also a famous detective on board." The stewardess nodded.

“Although it doesn’t look like it at all.”

......

"I'm a king of the world!" Mao Lilan stood at the front of the deck, opened her arms towards the cool sea breeze, and smiled happily.

"What if it sinks like the Titanic?" Kogoro Mouri rolled his eyes.

Mao Lilan gave him a dissatisfied look and said, "I have always wanted to try this."

Conan was behind them, laughing in his heart.

When the situation really gets serious, the uncle's bad mouth will become a symbol.

Also admiring the sea view on the deck, Kujirai Sadao, dressed in a white business suit, stroked his slightly curved beard and sighed, "The sea dyed red by the sunset."

"Faced with such beautiful scenery, it's no wonder there are such shouts."

“The sea is so beautiful…”

Mao Lilan smiled and agreed: "It can make people forget all the unhappiness."

A gentle female voice sounded from the other side: "Indeed, the sea can bury everything."

"Whether it's painful memories, an uncertain future, or..."

"Corpse."

Isogai Nagisa's short, slightly curly black hair swayed slightly in the sea breeze, and there was a hint of confusion on her beautiful face.

"Corpse?" Mao Lilan asked hesitantly, a little shocked.

Isogai Nagisa finally came back to her senses, her brows curved: "Ah, sorry."

"My father died at sea, so..."

As if she realized that the topic was a bit heavy, she smiled and shook her head, then said, "We should really thank Mr. Furukawa for organizing this event."

Mao Lilan's eyes lit up, and she said proudly, "I know who he is."

"Ah?" Uncle Maori, who was listening to their conversation boredly, suddenly looked at his daughter in confusion.

Mao Lilan explained: "Didn't I just pick up a seal? There are two words engraved on it: Furukawa."

She looked at the fat man and the bearded man who were chatting animatedly not far away: "It can be seen that the man holding the seal is Mr. Furukawa."

"He must have wanted to surprise everyone by revealing his identity at dinner."

"No." Rinshakuha shook her head slightly, and her tone was cold as she looked at Kameda Terukichi and Kanie Jūhisa.

"I've seen the registration form. He is one of the ten winners. His name is Terukichi Kameda."

"Eh, is that so?" Mao Lilan was dumbfounded.

"Everyone, dinner is ready!" The cabin door suddenly opened and the old detective Samezaki Shimaharu shouted to everyone.

Several people walked into the restaurant one after another and took their seats.

"So you are the famous 'Sleeping Kogoro'?" Isogai Nagisa wiped his hands with a towel and looked at Uncle Mori with some curiosity.

"That's right, it's me." Uncle Maori smiled so hard that he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.

"Oh, you really are the one who didn't recognize a great man." The businessman Kujirai Sadao raised his glass of red wine and toasted him.

The fat man with small eyes, Terukichi Kameda, stood up from his seat, looking a little unhappy: "No, sorry, I want to go back to my room and lie down for a while."

"You still get seasick so easily." The mustache crab Jiang Jijiu complained.

"It's such a big ship, but there are so few people. It feels really deserted." Kogoro Mori looked around. The restaurant on the ship was also ridiculously large. It could probably accommodate forty or fifty people for a banquet.

The waiter next to him said, "In fact, besides you, there are three other passengers resting in the room."

"Three? There are two more people besides that detective." Mao Lilan thought for a moment.

"One of them was an old man. I passed him in the corridor earlier," recalled businessman Sadao Kujirai.

"He seems quite taciturn. What does he do?" he asked the waiter.

"I heard he's an oceanographer."

The waiter looked at the registration form: "The name is..."

"Ye Sancai."

"Wha, what?!"

"Ye Sancai!!"

The expressions of several passengers changed the moment they heard the name.

Conan adjusted his glasses, and a reflection flashed on them.
