Drowning in a sea of moonlight
Chapter 31
We were stunned by this bold and nonsense manifesto.
Look, there are so many "ha", it seems that the author is a person who pursues face-to-face and doesn't feel tired!
But at the same time, I also raised a little vigilance.If the criminal is a person whose spirit is different from that of ordinary people, it may not be possible to use common sense to speculate, and it will be more troublesome to deal with.
——To put it bluntly, it is difficult for ordinary people to deal with neurosis.
The captain of the police was very excited after seeing it, probably because he felt that there was a clue, and he led the two teams to the performance hall on the sixth floor with an order.
There are still more than ten minutes before six o'clock, which is more than enough to arrive.
It may be because of Edogawa and Arisia's brilliant performance just now, and Fyodor's credit for discovering the clues, we were not blocked from following up.
While walking quickly through the corridors, Dazai tilted his head and asked Arisia curiously: "Mr. Hyonuma has such a clear mind and is so calm. He has seen dozens of cases like this, right? It's really amazing." !"
"Thank you for the compliment, but I haven't encountered it before. It's just that a friend who studies medicine has seen some bloody things. I was still scared when I saw the scene just now."
Alisha was not fooled by him at all, she smiled softly and spoke nonsense.
"I'm a little curious, how did Dazai-kun meet Louis?"
In the setting, I was the one studying medicine, but Alisha didn’t mention it, probably because she didn’t want to give Dazai the opportunity to bring the topic to my past.
But he asked so knowingly later, was he giving me a suitable reason to remember his offense to Donna at that time, and take the opportunity to stay away from him?
Chat room "brain is empty" (3 people)
When breath becomes air: Arisia.
When breath becomes air: really no need.I didn't feel much when I saw him. If I didn't wait to see him, I would attract attention instead.Don't worry about it.
An offering to nothingness: Well, there is a reason, but on the other hand, it is also to wake him up.
An offering to nothingness: ... lest he forget what good deeds he has done and dare to look for you now.
"." Facing Arisia's words, Dazai paused for a moment, his smile unchanged: "I'm ashamed to say that I was drunk at the time and accidentally offended Mr. Ludwig. After I went back and thought about it, I felt that I feel really guilty, but fortunately, Mr. Ludwig is a gentle person, he is willing to forgive me, after coming and going, we got to know each other~"
...Excellent, directly avoided the topic of Donna.
After all, if he talked about the specific situation at that time again, I would still feel thorns in my heart when I heard it.
But mentioning the fact that he displeased me, without mentioning why, made it much less likely to revive my dislike.
However, for a person with such a deep city, it must be no problem at all.
After he finished speaking, he moved closer to me, looked up at me, fluttered his eyelashes, and his eyes reflecting the light were like a newborn deer in the forest, pure and innocent: "Now I am also very grateful to you, Luther Mr. Vichy, otherwise I will make you unhappy if I make a slip of the tongue after drinking, and I really can't feel at ease."
...Thank you.
...guilty, ah.
I don't really need it.
I just hope you are doing well.
But that's all in the past.
I kept some distance from him calmly and said, "It's a small matter. It's over."
He looked at me, his eyes were like the rainy sky outside the window, and the smile on his face suddenly became like a mask, as if it would shatter if touched.
Edogawa had been watching our conversation with cold eyes, and now he puffed up his cheeks and said: "...The plan to watch cartoons tonight has been cancelled, Ludwig, what do you think should be done?"
...as if I made it up.
I looked at him with the eyes of a giant baby: "...What else can I do, let's make cold salad. At most, you can eat more sugar to make up for your mood.
But I want to remind you that although I don't stop you from eating, at your frequency, even if you don't have type [-] diabetes, high blood pressure is only a matter of time.Not to mention obesity. "
"...Ahhh Ludwig is so annoying! Obviously you are eating too!"
I showed a proud smile: "But I exercise."
"Louis! Of course people will be upset when you say that. If you think about it this way, he must have made a rational choice, that is to say, he must have put the pleasure you can get from eating snacks and the risks of various diseases in the future. Comparing together, I just think the former can compensate for the latter, so I continue to eat~”
Alisha also approached without fear of trouble, and after saying these words to excuse Edogawa, she added a knife with a smile.
"Although, rationality cannot compensate for the fact that he is likely to be obese in the future."
Edogawa glanced at Dazai resentfully, glared at Arisia and me, stomped his feet, and was about to lose his temper when we walked to the last corner before the hall.
The performance hall is actually connected to the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors. We just went down from the seventh floor to the sixth floor, and then went around to the corridor facing the hall.
At this moment, the tourists who happened to be in the hall when the alarm sounded gathered at the bottom, and the flight attendants shuttled around to appease them, and everything was very calm and peaceful.
Fyodor looked down and sighed, his voice was so soft that even the wind could blow it away: "I wonder if it's a prank?"
Just the second after he said this sentence.
A flight attendant suddenly dropped the tray in his hand and fell to the ground. The crisp cracking sound did not echo in the empty space, but it was extremely ear-piercing.
——But at that moment, almost half of the flight attendants threw away their trays, just like throwing a cup, and the sound of broken porcelain overlapped in waves, deafening, just like the horseshoes resounding through the sky when thousands of troops cross the border Voice.
The leader laughed loudly, clapped his hands, and said, "There are so many people here, what an honor! Then, in order to thank you all for your kindness, let's invite ladies and gentlemen to enjoy—"
With a wave of his hand, the flight attendants suddenly took out their guns out of nowhere, and the sound of the guns being loaded was repeated one after another.
The passengers who had just faintly started to commotion fell silent in an instant, as if the sound had been sucked away by the black holes at the muzzles of these guns.
Behind us, half of the people who had followed the police captain obediently just now drew their pistols and pointed at us silently.
"The next thing that will be staged on this cruise ship is a fantastic battle escape!"
at the same time.
"Dazai! Ranpo-san!"
The man wearing glasses and the woman wearing a butterfly hairpin that we saw a few days ago also appeared at the place where the corridor connected to the hall we just came. They looked at us in shock, but they were also pointed at gunpoint.
They were also calm and raised their hands without any resistance.
After all, there are so many hostages downstairs.
"Everyone here." One of the rebellious marshals took off his hat, showing a vicissitudes of life, and said to us.
"I'm very sorry to involve you in this. Whether you believe it or not, we have nothing to do with the murder just now, and we don't know how the person who wrote this note learned of our plan."
"We are just trying to settle some grievances, and we don't want to hurt innocent people. Please follow the flight attendant's instructions, and everything will be fine."
At some point, Edogawa opened his squinted eyes, and looked at the marshal with heavy eyes.
"For the sake of your kindness reminding us, let me also remind you. No matter what your leaders saw back then, it is very likely that it is not the truth. Before everything is revealed, you'd better not act rashly."
The marshal also looked at him, with a wry smile on his face: "...Thank you, detective. But not only he saw it, each of us saw it. Anyway, before the end of this voyage, we You have to make a break with him."
At the same time, the voice of the flight attendant below also came from afar.
"As for the protagonist, don't worry too much. It's not any one of the passengers and friends, but the captain of this ship! Please pray that he will appear soon!"
......what.
To be honest, I'm kind of annoyed by this guy.
Although judging from his accomplice's performance, he may have suffered some kind of trauma to become such a character.
Although he hasn't done anything really hurtful yet.
But I looked at his fascinated and expressive voice amidst countless terrified tourists, and I still felt that perhaps it would be more comfortable to punch his face in a hollow.
Chat room "Moonlight Club" (25 people)
When breath turns into air: Emergency report @Lord of the Flies, the cruise ship "Cosmic Star" we were on was hijacked, the criminal claimed to meet the captain, at least one-third of the staff were holding firearms.
So far no shots have been fired, and there have been no casualties except for the murder in a closed room that seems to have nothing to do with this incident.
When breath turns into air: There are about 300 people on the other side, and about 100 people hold guns, half of which are imitations and the other half are real guns.
Exceeding the number of targets I can lock, I can't perfectly guarantee that the hostages will not be injured, but I can still stun all people with real guns in 3 seconds.
When breath becomes air: please instruct.
Lord of the Flies: Got it, Second Action Team.
Lord of the Flies: Don't act yet, but if you shoot, stop it immediately, and then execute your plan.
Tianyan: This ship used to be called "Ocean Hymn". The current gunmen basically worked under the previous captain. Now I suspect that there is some dispute between the two captains. I am adjusting the surveillance video of the last few voyages of the ship at that time. , but the cause of the event is most likely not recorded.
An offering to nothingness: Detective Edogawa of the Buteisha who is traveling with us looks like he knows something, and we'll try to ask him.
Lord of the Flies: Well, let's do it.Kalanish, Donna, Alisha, good luck.
Tianyan: Good luck.
Tragedy of X: Good luck.
World: Good luck.
Because those of us with the detective agency were given a special treat and crammed into a suite.
Other guests and staff can only stay where they are. After a search, those in the room are not allowed to come out, and those in the lobby are on the floor. It is probably because this is easy to manage and it is easy to take those people in the lobby as hostages at any time. .
It was also because of this that the members of the Armed Detective Agency could not act hastily, and could only stand still temporarily and discuss countermeasures.
With the joint efforts of Powell and Edogawa, the whole story was outlined.
During a certain voyage a year ago, the cruise ship "Ode to the Seas" ran aground on an isolated island.
On the way back, the captain committed suicide and the crew dispersed to other cruise ships.
This ship was also regarded as having bad luck, so the nautical company thought of renovating it, changing its name, and reappearing in the public eye.
When the ship sailed again, one-third of the crew returned, and people forgot about the accident a year ago.
However, the current captain of the "Cosmic Star" was once the deputy captain of the "Ocean Hymn".
—The current captain did not tell the detective agency all of this.
When I heard this, I just looked up to the sky and sighed.
It took a long time to invite people, but didn't tell them anything.
Should you say that you are not hesitating your life or not, the captain?
Instead, he told them some information that Powell and a certain hacker called "Flower Bag" who were in contact with the detective agency also found out later, such as the captain at the time brought back a treasure after being stranded.
"But that is by no means a treasure, it is the source of all despair." He said so.
He still has that thing.He told the detective agency that he had a premonition that something might go wrong on this voyage, so he planned to ask them to protect the tourists on the ship and help him destroy it.
"As a result, just three days after boarding the ship, this happened without even seeing the captain twice."
Dazai lay on the couch limply, resting his chin on the armrest, and said so in a drawn out voice.
Kunikida sat on the outside of him, and heard that he slashed the back of his head with his palm like a knife: "That's not because you bastard, it's just because you don't help me take care of Mr. Ranpo, and you want to commit suicide, which adds to the captain's burden." How much burden do you know—”
Amidst Dazai's wailing, "Wow, that's too violent Kunikida-kun--", Edogawa sat on the table beside him and said with a flat mouth: "...What are you talking about, Kunikida, Ranpo The grown-ups don’t need you idiots to take care of them, it’s Ranpo-sama who is taking care of you!”
"However, it is a fact that the captain is avoiding us. Whether he is physically or psychologically qualified, he will not be threatened to do so. That is what changed his mind."
Arisia, who was sitting next to me on a smaller sofa, said, "It's very possible. It's true that the captain sounds like a man with a firm mind but indecisiveness. In just a few days, his thoughts have changed. , is also unknown.
For example, he is suddenly confident that he can solve it internally, instead of letting the detective agency deal with these people as criminals. "
Kunikida let go of Dazai, turned around, and looked solemnly at Arisia and me, as well as Fyodor, who was drinking tea in silence and barely saying a word.
His facial features under the glasses are very correct, his eyes are sharp and firm, and his whole person exudes an awe-inspiring and inviolable righteousness.
At this moment, his eyes were also very firm. With his fingertips facing each other on his knees, he bowed his head and said, "It should be the duty of the detective agency to solve this matter perfectly and not let the tourists be affected. I am very sorry for involving the three of you."
Yo Xie Ye, who was quietly wiping the card issuer, also said: "Indeed, this is the first time that so many people outside the detective agency have been involved, and it was our mistake."
On the outside, she is an elegant, mature and intellectual woman like a rose flower, but judging from the fact that a large hatchet was found during the body search just now, she may not be a rose in essence, but a fierce tiger sniffing roses.
Fyodor put down his teacup and said with a smile: "No matter what, I feel more at ease when I'm with you all."
Alisha also smiled brightly and waved her hands: "Haha, it's not because of you that we still have to sleep on the floor in the hall, please don't blame yourself."
I also said, "It's okay. There is also an accidental factor in this matter, please don't be too hard on yourself."
When Kunikida heard this, he showed moved eyes, but his face became more dignified: "...Thank you very much. I know that the three have no obligation to help us, but this time the other party has too many hostages in their hands. To reduce casualties, please help us...!"
Dazai and Edogawa on the side didn't express their views, and they didn't say anything when they saw us agreeing.
Although the topic is very serious, in fact, just looking at the picture is very warm.
The suite we live in has two floors, with almost floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
Now in the living room on the first floor, Dazai and Kunikida are on the big sofa, Arisia and I are on the small sofa, Fyodor and Yosano are occupying an armchair, and sitting on the side at the desk With Edogawa swinging his legs, seven people were talking and laughing, sitting around the refreshments on the coffee table.
Without all the things that happened before, it would be like a group of college students on a luxury cruise ship or on a graduation trip.
"Well, although we can't move freely, the current situation is not completely unfavorable to us."
Edogawa stretched his waist and said.
"Dazai, are things okay?"
"The signal is good." Dazai said with the corners of his mouth curled up.
"——" Kunikida was a little dazed at first, but now seeing Dazai's fox-like smile, he seemed to understand something in an instant: "Hey, Dazai, don't you know—"
"Oh—Kunikida-kun shouldn't be so rigid at a time like this. He doesn't want to tell us, so we have to take the initiative to find him for information~"
As if he knew what Kunikida was going to say next, before he could speak, Dazai continued, "Also, all of this is to relieve the passengers outside from panic as soon as possible. Use a little special Is the method okay?"
This sentence choked Kunikida back, and he fell silent with an ugly expression.
"Wow, Dazai-kun is really powerful." Arisia winked at me and said in an admiring tone.
——From the word "signal", we know what Dazai has done.
After all, it was the same thing we were going to ask Powell to help with.
— Bugs, and locators.
I know that with his ability, even if he only met the captain a few times, he can put these away without any trace.
"Thank you, Mr. Hinuma." Dazai said with a smile, "It's a last resort, let everyone laugh."
"But it just applies to the current situation, isn't it great." Edogawa said.
He opened his green eyes, and there was a determined smile on his always lazy face.
"Next, let us be the eyes of the captain, and play a game of cat and mouse with them!"
The author has something to say:
Hahaha, it is the warm daily style that I have always wanted to write.
Except for Dazai and Ranpo, the detective agency here does not know the danger of Fyodor.Dazai was also more of a skeptic.
Zai is 20 years old now, and the main story hasn't even started yet, so why don't you just put aside your IQ and standpoint for the time being and come to play together? (dog head
The reason why Ranpo stared at Dazai at the beginning of the dialogue:
Ranpo: Dazai!Look, I was attacked by their partners in order to help you out!
Dazai: ...Mr. Ranpo.You just helped me realize with incredible clarity how much he hates me (smiling tears.jpg)
And his reaction here is not because he is not waiting to see him now.
It is also because he feels that saying "it's all over" now is not only referring to this incident, but also saying that everything before them is in the past.
It was very heartbreaking.
Today, Gogol and Gogol will be particularly inconsistent.
He really hates the kind of villain who looks like No Game No Life.
It was better for Fei Jia to be so serious.But it's also a villain who needs to be beaten.
It feels like I wrote the situation all at once to be huge and chaotic, but in fact, the purpose of my writing this paragraph is mainly for the emotional drama, as well as the transition to reveal the truth later, without too many exciting elements (but I can’t guarantee that I won’t I won’t be able to control myself), and the specific process of the game of cat and mouse will not be written because it is too thrilling to write from the current perspective, and it may not be as tense as the beginning of the five chapters of the sword hhh
Look, there are so many "ha", it seems that the author is a person who pursues face-to-face and doesn't feel tired!
But at the same time, I also raised a little vigilance.If the criminal is a person whose spirit is different from that of ordinary people, it may not be possible to use common sense to speculate, and it will be more troublesome to deal with.
——To put it bluntly, it is difficult for ordinary people to deal with neurosis.
The captain of the police was very excited after seeing it, probably because he felt that there was a clue, and he led the two teams to the performance hall on the sixth floor with an order.
There are still more than ten minutes before six o'clock, which is more than enough to arrive.
It may be because of Edogawa and Arisia's brilliant performance just now, and Fyodor's credit for discovering the clues, we were not blocked from following up.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I haven't encountered it before. It's just that a friend who studies medicine has seen some bloody things. I was still scared when I saw the scene just now."
Alisha was not fooled by him at all, she smiled softly and spoke nonsense.
"I'm a little curious, how did Dazai-kun meet Louis?"
In the setting, I was the one studying medicine, but Alisha didn’t mention it, probably because she didn’t want to give Dazai the opportunity to bring the topic to my past.
But he asked so knowingly later, was he giving me a suitable reason to remember his offense to Donna at that time, and take the opportunity to stay away from him?

An offering to nothingness: Well, there is a reason, but on the other hand, it is also to wake him up.
An offering to nothingness: ... lest he forget what good deeds he has done and dare to look for you now.
"." Facing Arisia's words, Dazai paused for a moment, his smile unchanged: "I'm ashamed to say that I was drunk at the time and accidentally offended Mr. Ludwig.

I don't really need it.
I just hope you are doing well.
But that's all in the past.
I kept some distance from him calmly and said, "It's a small matter. It's over."
He looked at me, his eyes were like the rainy sky outside the window, and the smile on his face suddenly became like a mask, as if it would shatter if touched.
Edogawa had been watching our conversation with cold eyes, and now he puffed up his cheeks and said: "...The plan to watch cartoons tonight has been cancelled, Ludwig, what do you think should be done?"

"Louis! Of course people will be upset when you say that.

Alisha also approached without fear of trouble, and after saying these words to excuse Edogawa, she added a knife with a smile.
"Although, rationality cannot compensate for the fact that he is likely to be obese in the future."
Edogawa glanced at Dazai resentfully, glared at Arisia and me, stomped his feet, and was about to lose his temper when we walked to the last corner before the hall.

Because those of us with the detective agency were given a special treat and crammed into a suite.

How much burden do you know—”
Amidst Dazai's wailing, "Wow, that's too violent Kunikida-kun--", Edogawa sat on the table beside him and said with a flat mouth: "...What are you talking about, Kunikida, Ranpo The grown-ups don’t need you idiots to take care of them, it’s Ranpo-sama who is taking care of you!”

Kunikida let go of Dazai, turned around, and looked solemnly at Arisia and me, as well as Fyodor, who was drinking tea in silence and barely saying a word.
His facial features under the glasses are very correct, his eyes are sharp and firm, and his whole person exudes an awe-inspiring and inviolable righteousness.
At this moment, his eyes were also very firm. With his fingertips facing each other on his knees, he bowed his head and said, "It should be the duty of the detective agency to solve this matter perfectly and not let the tourists be affected. I am very sorry for involving the three of you."
Yo Xie Ye, who was quietly wiping the card issuer, also said: "Indeed, this is the first time that so many people outside the detective agency have been involved, and it was our mistake."
On the outside, she is an elegant, mature and intellectual woman like a rose flower, but judging from the fact that a large hatchet was found during the body search just now, she may not be a rose in essence, but a fierce tiger sniffing roses.
Fyodor put down his teacup and said with a smile: "No matter what, I feel more at ease when I'm with you all."
Alisha also smiled brightly and waved her hands: "Haha, it's not because of you that we still have to sleep on the floor in the hall, please don't blame yourself."
I also said, "It's okay. There is also an accidental factor in this matter, please don't be too hard on yourself."
When Kunikida heard this, he showed moved eyes, but his face became more dignified: "...Thank you very much. I know that the three have no obligation to help us, but this time the other party has too many hostages in their hands. To reduce casualties, please help us...!"
Dazai and Edogawa on the side didn't express their views, and they didn't say anything when they saw us agreeing.
Although the topic is very serious, in fact, just looking at the picture is very warm.
The suite we live in has two floors, with almost floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
Now in the living room on the first floor, Dazai and Kunikida are on the big sofa, Arisia and I are on the small sofa, Fyodor and Yosano are occupying an armchair, and sitting on the side at the desk With Edogawa swinging his legs, seven people were talking and laughing, sitting around the refreshments on the coffee table.
Without all the things that happened before, it would be like a group of college students on a luxury cruise ship or on a graduation trip.
"Well, although we can't move freely, the current situation is not completely unfavorable to us."
Edogawa stretched his waist and said.
"Dazai, are things okay?"
"The signal is good." Dazai said with the corners of his mouth curled up.
"——" Kunikida was a little dazed at first, but now seeing Dazai's fox-like smile, he seemed to understand something in an instant: "Hey, Dazai, don't you know—"
"Oh—Kunikida-kun shouldn't be so rigid at a time like this. He doesn't want to tell us, so we have to take the initiative to find him for information~"
As if he knew what Kunikida was going to say next, before he could speak, Dazai continued, "Also, all of this is to relieve the passengers outside from panic as soon as possible. Use a little special Is the method okay?"
This sentence choked Kunikida back, and he fell silent with an ugly expression.
"Wow, Dazai-kun is really powerful." Arisia winked at me and said in an admiring tone.
——From the word "signal", we know what Dazai has done.
After all, it was the same thing we were going to ask Powell to help with.
— Bugs, and locators.
I know that with his ability, even if he only met the captain a few times, he can put these away without any trace.
"Thank you, Mr. Hinuma." Dazai said with a smile, "It's a last resort, let everyone laugh."
"But it just applies to the current situation, isn't it great." Edogawa said.
He opened his green eyes, and there was a determined smile on his always lazy face.
"Next, let us be the eyes of the captain, and play a game of cat and mouse with them!"
The author has something to say:
Hahaha, it is the warm daily style that I have always wanted to write.
Except for Dazai and Ranpo, the detective agency here does not know the danger of Fyodor.Dazai was also more of a skeptic.
Zai is 20 years old now, and the main story hasn't even started yet, so why don't you just put aside your IQ and standpoint for the time being and come to play together? (dog head
The reason why Ranpo stared at Dazai at the beginning of the dialogue:
Ranpo: Dazai!Look, I was attacked by their partners in order to help you out!
Dazai: ...Mr. Ranpo.You just helped me realize with incredible clarity how much he hates me (smiling tears.jpg)
And his reaction here is not because he is not waiting to see him now.
It is also because he feels that saying "it's all over" now is not only referring to this incident, but also saying that everything before them is in the past.
It was very heartbreaking.
Today, Gogol and Gogol will be particularly inconsistent.
He really hates the kind of villain who looks like No Game No Life.
It was better for Fei Jia to be so serious.But it's also a villain who needs to be beaten.
It feels like I wrote the situation all at once to be huge and chaotic, but in fact, the purpose of my writing this paragraph is mainly for the emotional drama, as well as the transition to reveal the truth later, without too many exciting elements (but I can’t guarantee that I won’t I won’t be able to control myself), and the specific process of the game of cat and mouse will not be written because it is too thrilling to write from the current perspective, and it may not be as tense as the beginning of the five chapters of the sword hhh
