Chapter 1553: The Incident on the Cruise Ship

Friday, May 6, afternoon, on board the Aphrodite cruise ship.

Yamazaki took the five members of the Boy Detective Team to the fitness massage parlor on the fifth deck and handed them over to Dr. Ali, but then Conan followed.

Going up to the sixth deck, although I don't know which one is Sister Li's room, but I will know which one it is after walking around in front of the door and listening to the faint voices in the room.

Maori's excited and exaggerated speech could not be blocked by the door.

After knocking on the door, Yamazaki found that it was Mao Li who came to answer the door. He couldn't help but sigh, Uncle Mao Li is really kind.

When Maori saw that it was Yamazaki and Conan, he immediately raised his triangular eyes.

With the terrifying look in his eyes, Conan was sure that if he came to knock on the door, he would definitely be thrown out.

"There is an incident, uncle."

"event?"

Maori put on a serious expression, "What's going on?"

Yamazaki said: "Sonoko was attacked by someone, and that person was holding a retractable baton. Obviously it was not accidental."

At this time, Sister Li came out, shining stars, which made Conan stare straight.

"Sorry, two, I have something to do, and I have to excuse you now."

"Oh, what a pity."

"Yeah, let's talk next time we have a chance."

"On call."

After Mori bid farewell to Sister Rei, he left with Yamazaki and Conan and turned back to the infirmary.

Yamazaki took the time to look around on the seventh-tier deck and the "home" of hide-and-seek, but he didn't find Mei Daizi. ...

On the other side, the infirmary.

Yuanzi was in a better mood, and curiously asked Lan where she had been playing hide-and-seek just now.

"Hey, it's in a very secret place." Lan said with a proud smile.

"Where is it?" Yuanzi protested, "Don't be a fool, I'm a sick person now."

"Yes." Lan asked with a smile, "Do you remember playing hide-and-seek in elementary school?"

"Why did it go to elementary school again?" Yuanzi said helplessly, "So many times of hide-and-seek, who remembers which time it was?"

"That was the time." Lan said, "We found Xinyi to play with, but Xinyi said he was going to play football."

"Ah, I remembered, I wanted to beat him at the time." Yuanzi said angrily, "That guy has been teased since he was a child."

"Hehe, it's okay." Lan said with a smile.

"That's what you think." Yuanzi said angrily, then thought for a while and smiled, "Ah, I remembered, that time, I remember that Lan you hid in the storage cabinet under the competition stage in the gymnasium, and later served as a The typical negative teaching material of hide-and-seek security issues was reported anonymously by the whole school."

Lan squeezed her eyes in embarrassment, "This, uh..."

"Speaking of which, it was all Mei Daizi's fault that time. She said she was going home halfway through the game, but we didn't find you, so we thought you were going home first, so we left." Yuanzi said, "I didn't expect Lan, you are trapped in that storage cabinet, I seem to have heard you say that it was Kudo who saved you."

"Yes." Lan recalled, "On the way home that day, I curiously asked Shinichi how he knew I was there."

"I haven't heard you say that," Sonoko asked, "Then what did he say?"

Lan recalled what happened that afternoon. ...

"School Monsters."

"What?"

"The children hiding in the teaching building were all eaten by monsters, weren't they? So you can't hide in the teaching building."

"Wait a minute, how do you know I've seen that movie?"

"Every time you pass by the door of a video rental store, you always stare at the poster of that movie. You say you are afraid of monsters, but you will definitely go to see that kind of movie.

"

"Ah? You also know this?"

"So in this way, your hiding place must be outside the teaching building, and if you like animals, you must worry about scaring the chickens, and it is impossible to hide in the breeding hut."

"Well, that's right."

"And the seniors in the basketball department were sorting out at that time, so you couldn't hide in the sports room. The rest was the gymnasium."

"That's how you can guess."

"I'm reasoning, so except for the storage cabinet under the competition platform, where the teacher just put the step ladder, you can't hide anywhere else, and you seem to have peeked behind the ladder during class in the gymnasium Bar."

"Wow……"

"How about it, I'm very powerful, aren't you startled?"

"No, I discovered that you have been paying attention to me, Shinichi."

"Huh? Ah, no, that's not it."

"Xinyi, you are blushing."

"Tell me about yourself, I was born in the sunset."...

"Ah," Yuanzi interrupted Lan's memory, "Okay, okay, I understand, so you two had problems at that time."

"What?" Lan's face became hot.

"No?" Yuanzi asked, "Nalan, what do you mean by these things?"

"Ah? No, no, it's not interesting." Lan Dahan, it's better not to mention where the hide-and-seek is hiding, otherwise you might be laughed at again.

"Ah, I see," Sonoko said with a sly smile, "Lan, are you trying to tell me that only Kudo can find you?"

"That's not the case." Lan blushed.

Yuanzi smirked and said, "You're blushing, isn't this the setting sun?"

"This is to anger you, Yuanzi." Lan said firmly.

"Understood, I got it right, so I'm angry." Sonoko sighed narcissistically, "Why am I so smart?"

"..." Lan was speechless.

At this time, Maori came with Yamazaki and Conan, and Sonoko and Ran stopped laughing.

"How are you feeling, Sonoko?"

"It feels good, uncle."

"Then, let's sort out what happened to you again."

"Okay, uncle."

Maori asked Yuanzi about the incident again, and learned that Yuanzi was attacked on the first deck, where the lifeboats were parked; the time was around 3:11 in the afternoon; only a person wearing a cruise ship commemorative shirt was seen.

"Cruise commemorative shirt?" Maori remembered that when he went to Sister Li's room, he had encountered such a person. At that time, the person turned his back to him and brushed past him.

Yuanzi said, "Yes, that person covered him tightly. He didn't know if he was a man or a woman, and he didn't pay attention to his figure."

Mao Li said: "Okay, I see, I will go to the Yatsushiro president and ask him to help investigate."

"If he refuses to help, call the police," Yamazaki said.

"Would it be too much to call the police?" Sonoko asked a little worried, "This kind of incident on the cruise ship will affect the operation of the cruise ship, and in turn affect the relationship between our Suzuki Foundation and the Yatsushiro Foundation."

"If Sonoko thinks something is wrong, you'd better call and ask your father." Yamazaki said, thinking at the same time, this poisonous snake in the dark must be caught, because it is related to the safety of Suzuki's family.

"Well," Yuanzi hesitated, "Okay." Then he complained, "Really, I'm going to be nagged again when I go back."

Hitoshi Mizukubo, the ship's doctor, interjected, "Well, I've already called the president's secretary, Ms. Kaho Tsujimoto. Anyway, please wait until the president arrives before making a decision."

At this time, Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho's face turned pale and came in in shock, "Mao, Detective Maori,"

"What happened?" Mao Li's heart moved, "Could something happen to the eighth generation president?"

"No, it's not the president, it's Ms. Guijiang." Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho called, "Ms. Guijiang was killed in her room."

"What!" Everyone was shocked.

"Go, take me to have a look."

"yes."

Mori, Yamazaki, Conan, ship doctor Hitoshi Mizukubo, and secretary Kaho Tsujimoto went to Yatsushiro Kie's room, 63A, the first of the four superb rooms on the sixth deck. ...

Deck six, room 63A.

The floor-to-ceiling curtains were closed but not drawn, and the room was dimly lit.

However, it can still be clearly seen that Yadai Guijiang is lying on his back by the window, with a white towel on his head and a white bathrobe, but a large area of ​​the bathrobe has been stained dark red by blood.

The murder weapon was a dagger, which was now stuck in Yatsushiro Guijiang's lower back.

Mao Li touched Yadai Guijiang's neck and found that there was no heartbeat, and even his body temperature was already a little cold. It had been some time since he was killed.

The ship's doctor Mizukubo Ren also checked, but shook his head helplessly, "Ms. Guijiang has passed away."

Maori sighed, "Call the police."

"Yes." Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho quickly responded, then hesitated, "Well, Detective Mori, the president seems to have disappeared."

"What?" Everyone was surprised again.

Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho said: "It was because I couldn't find the president that I found Ms. Guijiang's place, but I found that the door was unlocked, and as soon as I opened it..."

Maori asked, "Have you looked anywhere?"

Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho said: "That's not true. It's just that according to the schedule, the president should go to drink afternoon tea with some VIPs, but the president didn't show up."

Conan thought of a question, "Uncle, sister Sonoko was attacked, could it be the murderer who did it? Then the murderer went to the first-tier deck, was it to President Yatsushiro..."

Maori immediately shouted: "It's possible, hurry up, let's go to the first deck."...

First step deck, emergency exit near the lifeboat.

Everyone found a closed folding fan on the ground, and Secretary Tsujimoto Kaho confirmed that it was Yatsushiro Yantaro's fan.

Looking at the emergency exit next to them, everyone realized that Yashirosha Yantaro might be pushed into the sea by the murderer. ...
