"Is Sonoko with Mr. Mori and the others now?" In the lounge, Qing Shuijing turned the page of the script in her hand and asked.
"Well, Sonoko probably finds it boring to stay with us, right? It feels like she has become a little alienated from me as a sister recently..." Suzuki Ayako sighed softly.
After hearing this, Qing Shuijing finally put down the script in her hand, turned to look at her, and said with a smile: "Don't think so much, they are at this age when they love to play, just be careful not to let her get along with some unscrupulous people. Just mix it up.”
Speaking of this, Qing Shuijing's expression changed vaguely.
People who are neither good nor bad...could she be included in this category?
"I know... By the way, I'll ask her again if those children are with them now.
I haven't seen those children since I came here, so don't let them get lost..."
With that said, Suzuki Ayako took out her mobile phone, but when she was about to make a call, she suddenly found that her mobile phone had no signal.
"Huh? It's strange, the phone has no signal..." Suzuki Ayako was a little confused.
Because the radio tower in the middle of Clover Villa is itself a large signal tower, it stands to reason that their mobile phones should not have no signal on this artificial island...
Hearing this, Qing Shuijing also took out her mobile phone and took a look. Like Suzuki Ayako, her mobile phone also had no signal.
【Did something happen...】
At this moment, noisy footsteps suddenly sounded in the corridor outside the room.
Soon, the door to the lounge was roughly pushed open. A panting staff member held on to the door frame and shouted to the two people in the room: "It's not good! Miss Suzuki! In the aquarium of Dongye Building In, in the aquarium..."
"Calm down and tell me slowly, what's going on in the aquarium? What happened?" Suzuki Ayako comforted her in a gentle tone.
"President Moriyama, he was killed in the aquarium!"
"What?!" Suzuki Ayako stood up immediately, looking unbelievable.
"..."
"Quick! It's right over here!"
In the aquarium of the East Leaf Building, Mori and his party, who heard the news of President Moriyama's murder on the way, hurriedly came to the indoor aquarium under the leadership of several security guards.
"Where is the scene?" Mouri Kogoro asked as he trotted through the beautiful glass corridor of the aquarium.
"It's right in front! In a tropical fish tank called Coral Dream!" the security guard leading the way shouted back.
"Inside the sink? What do you mean?" Conan noticed something unusual in the security guard's words.
"That's the literal meaning! President Moriyama... was sunk into the sink!"
After the security guard finished speaking, everyone finally came to the tropical fish tank called Coral Dream.
"Well..." Just taking a look at the situation in the sink, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko quickly covered their mouths, turned around and retched.
In the tank filled with beautiful corals of all colors, a tall male corpse had its feet tied with leather straps and his hands raised above his head, forming an extremely weird posture under the water pressure, as if he was dancing.
And this person is obviously Moriyama Hiromichi, the client of Mori Kogoro and the president of Moriyama Company.
"Quick! Do you have the key? Open the sink first and fish the person out quickly!" Mouri Kogoro was obviously stimulated by the scene in front of him. His face looked a little ugly and he shouted to the security guard beside him.
"Well, we don't have the key to the rock field on the second floor. The key is in the hands of the staff of the aquarium..."
The tank at Clover Villa Aquarium is very large. In order to visually restore the underwater environment as much as possible, many reef rocks imitating the underwater environment are piled inside the tank.
These artificial reefs extend to the second floor of the aquarium. If the staff in the aquarium wants to change the water or clean the tank, they must also do it on the rock field on the second floor.
"Then hurry up and shout! What are you still doing standing here?!" Mouri Kogoro shouted sternly.
"I know, I know!" Only then did several security guards react and quickly ran to find the aquarium staff.
At the same time, Conan walked to the sink, looked at the body of Hiromichi Moriyama floating inside, and hammered the glass of the sink hard with his fist.
【Damn! Sure enough, something happened! 】
"Hey! What happened? I heard that President Moriyama... eh? Kudo... no, kid?!"
[Strange, is this voice? 】
A familiar Kansai accent suddenly sounded behind him. Conan was startled and quickly looked back.
I saw a high school boy full of the power of the sun running over quickly. When the high school student saw Conan, he also had a surprised look on his face.
He is Hattori Heiji, a high school detective from Osaka, Kansai, the son of Hattori Heizo, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, and a famous Kansai detective named after Kudo Shinichi.
"Why are you here?!" the two people asked in unison.
"Huh? It turns out he's a kid from Osaka..." Mouri Kogoro also noticed Hattori Heiji. His eyes swept back and forth between the two people and asked doubtfully:
"What's wrong? Are you two brats so familiar with each other?"
"Um, haha, it's okay... I just didn't expect you guys to be here, uncle." Hattori Heiji quickly said haha, stepped forward and rubbed Conan's big head vigorously.
"The deputy director is here!"
After a brief chat, the security guard who had left earlier came over with a tall middle-aged man.
The man is tall, wearing a striped suit, glasses, a thick beard, and some gray hair. He looks to be in his fifties or sixties.
His right arm seemed to be injured and was hung across his chest by a sling around his neck.
"Hello everyone, I am Ryotaro Harada, the deputy director of this museum. I'm sorry, I went to the medical area because of an injury on my arm, so I haven't been..."
"Okay! Now isn't the time to talk about this. Have you brought the key? Hurry up and open the door to the rock field on the second floor! Let's fish out President Moriyama's body first!"
"Okay, please follow me."
"..."
While things were happening in the aquarium, on the other side of Clover Villa, Qing Shuijing, who was looking for the group of elementary school students, went to the parking lot and used the satellite phone in the car to call Bai Heqing.
"Well, Hiromichi Moriyama, I seem to have an impression. Let me take a look..."
On the other end of the phone, the sound of Bai Heqing turning the pages of a book came, but after just a short while, the sound stopped.
"Oh, I found it. I remembered it correctly. The president of Moriyama Company. This person is indeed one of the assets of the organization and a 'livestock' raised by the organization... So, is he dead?"
"Well, I just received the news, but the specific situation is not clear yet." Qing Shuijing nodded and squinted slightly.
Two members of the organization were killed in two consecutive days. She believed that it was time to make a decision.
There must be some people or groups who are specifically targeting members of the organization.
The same was true for the man at the train station yesterday, and the same was true for Moriyama Hiromichi today. Although there is indeed a very small possibility of coincidence, for people like them, it is simply not possible to believe in coincidence casually. Looking for death.
Bai Heqing also made this judgment.
"Why do I feel like the troubles have never stopped since I came back to Japan..."
He sighed helplessly.
"By the way, Jing, you just said that there is no signal at Clover Villa?"
"Yeah." Qing Shuijing looked down at her cell phone, which still had no signal, and said, "It hasn't recovered yet. I don't know when it started."
"It doesn't make much sense to think about it now... The president is dead, and the signal from the radio tower is gone. Well, it seems like someone wants to do something there.
If this speculation is true, then these little mice must still be in Clover Villa now.
Okay, Jing, your vacation is ruined. This time things must not be over yet. You have only one goal, hide your identity as much as possible, wait for those mice to jump out on their own, and see what they have. Such a face..."
"yes."
