Leighton Adams knew how the group of "elders" who were of the same generation as his father evaluated him.

It is nothing more than incompetent, mediocre, and a guy who has not inherited the ability and ambition of his parents.

In the beginning, she just gossiped behind his back, but today she started to teach him a lesson in the tone of an elder and a senior.

His ability is indeed not outstanding, but it is more than enough to manage his own property under the condition of hiring a professional manager. If it is not for the accidental death of his father, everything has not been arranged properly, so that these **** "elders" have the opportunity to take advantage of the fire... …

Most of the core talents in the management and research offices were poached, and those who remained had a deep friendship with his father, and they could be regarded as watching him grow up.

But relying on these people alone is unable to pull up a company that has been injured at the root, and he has to get new funds.Or... come up with a unique drug concept.

Both are fantasy to him now.

Because of this, he immediately made a schedule after hearing the news from David.

No matter how absurd and unbelievable the news sounds, as long as there is a one in ten thousand chance of being real, he will try to catch it.

……

It's just nice to say.

He understood that although he hated and hated those "elders", he was indeed a mediocre and incompetent person.

When his father was alive, he didn't have too high demands on him, he only asked him to do what he wanted to do, and he would help him handle the rest.

He just wanted to escape.

He is clear that even if David can really come up with such a miraculous potion and is willing to put it on the market with a clearly marked price, it can only prove that it is a potion that even David himself can't break through the analysis. What can he do with half the number of researchers.

He's not a child anymore, he doesn't believe in miracles when praying—

A miracle happened.

The strange and beautiful creature, with its octopus-like tentacles soft and tough, densely covered with spikes, and the gradual curves as it wriggled, fascinated his soul.

The slowly opening and closing mouthparts at the top are like the most beautiful flowers he has ever seen, and the cold skin sticks to his fingertips, opening and withering while breathing.

In the process of trying to capture the other party, he accidentally injured it, which made him feel unprecedented pain, and he almost felt that his shaky spirit was about to fall off the cliff completely.

But when he stretched out his hand towards it with pity, the wound grew granulation in front of his eyes, and the granulation intertwined to form an organ that was exactly the same as before.

It looks intact.

Unlike the finished product in David's hand, which is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and difficult to analyze, it is a creature that truly carries the secret of original regeneration.

After a long silence, Leighton Adams tremblingly pressed his pale lips against the cold, undulating and wriggling skin, with a sincere expression, as if he was kissing the Messiah who had redeemed him.

No more need for David, no more need for his potion, no more seeing the faces of the "elders"——

He will have a glorious new life.

And that's his miracle.

A miracle that belongs only to him.

-

In the past, the former high school student Kudo Shinichi, who was often invited by the police to help the scene of the case, is now an elementary school student who acts alone and will be questioned many times by adults and tries to capture and return to his parents.

At the beginning, he was not used to this kind of treatment, but now after many times of training, Edogawa Conan has mastered the skills including stealth, pretending to be stupid, and using words that seem to have nothing to do with him to get the information he needs.

After successfully asking the waiter where Leighton Adams' room was, Edogawa Conan, who turned around and slipped into the elevator, was stumped by another question.

The elevator here turned out to be the type that can only go to the corresponding floor by the room card.

Although the Adams family's property is ridiculed as declining, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the current background is still very impressive.

His room is arranged on the top floor, which is different from the floor of the room where Edogawa Conan is located. Except for the button on his own floor, the buttons on other floors will not light up.

Considering safety issues, the cruise ship is equipped with safe passages, but in order to protect the personal and property safety of all guests, gatekeepers are arranged on each floor.

The gatekeeper remembers the faces and identities of all the guests on the floor he is in charge of. Even children like Edogawa Conan will be greeted politely and friendly when they travel.

At this time, the thoughtful and comprehensive arrangement became the biggest obstacle for Edogawa Conan to fish in troubled waters.

Why don't you tell the other party that you forgot to bring your room card when the next person comes in, and you want to go back to your room to get toys?

But there is no guarantee that the other party will go to the floor he wants to go to, and it seems that there will be many people coming out of the banquet hall in a short while, just waiting here is too inefficient.

While Edogawa Conan was biting his thumb and racking his brains to find a countermeasure, the elevator door opened.

"Which floor do you want to go to?"

"The top floor." After subconsciously answering, Edogawa Conan raised his head suddenly, and what he saw was Ashiya Michimi's face that would give him nightmares—the other party has been following him?Why didn't he feel it at all? ?

The other party stood on tiptoe and pressed the button on the top floor. It was the same as when he pressed it before, but the button did not light up.

Sure enough, a room card is still required.

Thinking of this, there was a slight weightlessness under his feet.

Before Edogawa Conan could react, the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, and the elevator door reopened, and the sign of the top floor appeared in front of him.

Edogawa Conan:? ?

Does this elevator button also have a fingerprint sensor system?It's not impossible, rich people just love to do such vain things.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always felt that this elevator was a bit weird everywhere, and it was subtly different from his previous elevator experience. Should it be a problem of speed or rhythm...

When the elevator door opened just now, there was a harsh metal friction sound. It sounded as if the elevator door was pushed to the sides by some invisible force.

Edogawa Conan glanced, and actually saw two inconspicuous depressions on the side of the elevator door, as if they had been pinched by something...

Hahaha how is it possible, it should be the traces that existed before, but I ignored it when I was thinking about other things when I got into the elevator.

In a hurry to go to Leighton Adams' room to investigate the scene of the crime, the thought of suspicion just flickered in Edogawa Conan's mind and then passed.

Ashiya Michimi stepped out of the elevator following Edogawa Conan unhurriedly.After the figures of the two turned a corner, the elevator door, which kept making slight clicking noises, was finally able to close after the force preventing it from closing disappeared, and slowly slid down.

Leighton Adams's room was easy to find, and the wide open door was particularly conspicuous, allowing people to see it at a glance.

The two of them walked all the way without encountering a single person, and both the aisles and the small public areas were quiet.The guests can still say that they are in the banquet hall below, so what about the others?

How could there be no one guarding the place where the murder just happened?

Distracted, he sorted out and analyzed the suspicious points he had seen on the road in his mind, and when he walked to the open door, Edogawa Conan's feet tilted and he almost slipped and fell to the ground.

After stabilizing his body, he squatted down and inspected the floor carefully, and soon discovered the clue.

The almost-drying transparent liquid left a long trail on the ground, as if someone had mopped the ground with a mop just now—and it only dragged the middle of the road.

No, it's not water.

I carefully touched a little liquid with my hand, and the sticky touch confirmed that its composition is not as simple as water.

The skin didn't feel irritated, and it smelled a little fishy, ​​like...the smell of the ocean.

Edogawa Conan stood up and walked carefully into the room.This is a luxurious suite. The decoration near the door was knocked down, and the slender dark copper vase fell to the ground. Transparent liquid traces extended from the vase into the corridor on the right of the suite.

Following the traces of the liquid, standing outside the room at the end, Edogawa Conan took a deep breath and looked inside.

The reaction of the waiter who just went down to pass on the message is enough to show that Leighton Adams’s death method is probably not unusual. He has seen many dead bodies in the past when assisting the police station to investigate the case, but even so, Edogawa Conan at this time Still shocked by the sight in front of him, his pupils shrank.

Leighton Adams' body still maintained the posture before his death, kneeling in a pool of huge water stains with his back to Conan Edogawa, completely soaked, his hands hanging on the ground, and his head missing.

The edge of the wound was pitted and torn, it didn't look like it was cut off by a sharp weapon...instead, it looked like it was bitten by some kind of sharp tooth.

Resisting the urge to vomit, Conan Edogawa moved closer, and more details were revealed in front of him.

There was hardly any blood splashed in the room, that's because the victim—

Leighton Adams' blood has almost been sucked dry.Without the filling of blood, the muscles were slightly shriveled and attached to the bones, and the skin color turned a strange bluish white.

Leighton Adams was wearing a formal white shirt with the sleeves rolled up to reveal a little skin.The faint dark color on the skin caught Edogawa Conan's attention.

He lifted up the sleeves of his white shirt, and the exposed skin under the sleeves was covered with strangle marks and small puncture wounds, as if he had been tightly bound by a rope full of thorns.

Looking in from the neckline with two buttons open, you can see the same traces extending in, and many holes have been pierced on the shirt.

A murder weapon that could cause such a serious injury must not be inconspicuous, but on the way in and in this room just now, Edogawa Conan did not see anything that could be regarded as a murder weapon.

What Leighton Adams faced was a huge glass container, more than half the height of a person, and wide enough for a 1.9-meter strong man to sit on his knees.

The lid of the container was properly removed, and there was still less than half of the water inside, and most of the rest was probably scattered on the ground outside.

Those traces of unknown liquid spread out from this container.Letting go of Layton Adams's sleeve, Edogawa Conan looked at the newly stained slimy liquid on his hands, and an unrealistic guess emerged in his heart——Could it be that Layton Adams was an aquatic creature raised by himself? Creatures killed?

Which aquatic creature can bind human beings, has sharp claws that can bite off human heads, and can walk so far on land!

Just about to check the situation in the water tank further, Edogawa Conan's line of sight suddenly raised a bit.He was picked up and turned in a circle, facing a familiar white hair.

"Little brother, this is not a place to play games."

Gojo Satoru lifted the child up to eye level with ease, "Your sister is still below, be careful and I will sue her."

Edogawa Conan has no power to resist, and can only act cute to survive, "I want to become a famous detective just like Shinichi brother! A famous detective must smell the breath of the case at the first time!"

Most people would probably just take this as a child's joke, and forcefully drive Conan back.

However, Gojo Satoru is not an ordinary person.

People who were used to watching the curse spirit didn't think there was anything inappropriate about this scene, and the child didn't look scared at all. It's not good to hit a child's dream.

"Well... that's right, let me tell you what you found." Gojo Satoru put the child down.

"Ah?" Edogawa Conan, who simply got the permission to stay at the scene, was momentarily at a loss for words.

If Fujimaru Tachika was here, she would definitely not let things develop in this direction.However, when he and Gojo Satoru found the strange trace in front of the door, they agreed to split up.

Not long after Gojo Satoru discovered Edogawa Conan, Fujimaru Tateka also came to the other end of the strange trace.

It was a small observation deck, inlaid with an open floor-to-ceiling window.At this time, the window of the floor-to-ceiling window was wide open, and the child with black and white hair was floating in the air, looking down from the window.

As if sensing the arrival of the second person, he turned his head and smiled normally, "Master, have you also come to see the scenery?"
