"Sister Xiaolan, where are you hiding?" Conan asked.
Just like Suzuki Sonoko said.
Mao Lilan always hides in unexpected places when playing hide-and-seek. Out of the detective's 'instinct' of being curious about everything, he is quite looking forward to Mao Lilan giving an unexpected answer.
"Conan, you have been playing football, right?"
Mao Lilan did not answer, but bent down and scratched Conan's nose, "I know everything..."
Feeling the warm touch from the tip of his nose, two blushes appeared on Conan's cheeks.
He quickly coughed a few times, looked around and said:
"Sister Yuanzi hasn't come back yet..."
"Maybe I didn't notice the time."
Haihara Ai said, took out the detective armband and called over.
As soon as the communication was established, Suzuki Sonoko's urgent cry for help came from the loudspeaker:
"Help! Come and save me..."
? !
Conan was shocked, took out his detective armband, and asked, "Sister Yuanzi, what happened?"
Suzuki Sonoko was obviously panicked and shouted anxiously: "Come quickly, come quickly and save me..."
Sizzling...
It is very dull and harsh, and the sound is easily reflected strongly in a closed space.
Was he locked up?
After Ye Gengyi analyzed some information from the simple conversation, he closed his eyes and said silently to himself:
"Xiaobai, locate the signal of the detective's armband."
The confined space naturally included items such as suitcases. He needed to first determine the scope and determine whether Suzuki Sonoko was imprisoned or thrown into the sea.
[Please wait... Sir, the signal has been successfully locked. 】
The radar image quickly appears on the retina.
It can be seen that people are still on the cruise ship.
However, since the principle of positioning is to calculate the longitude and latitude of the receiver through the intersection of at least three signal stations, the altitude information is calculated by the receiver solving the time difference of signal transmission.
The power of the detective armband is just one of the problems...
Ye Gengyi wants to obtain high-precision positioning signals on the sea. In addition to using satellites, he can only obtain high-precision positioning by placing drone simulation signal base stations that are multiples of 3 around the cruise ship.
On the side, Mao Lilan took the detective armband from Conan: "Yuanzi, calm down, tell us where you are first!"
"I don't know. It seemed like I was in the box and someone knocked me unconscious. It was so dark and cold around me. I, I... was scared..."
Sizzling...sizzling...
The noise became more and more serious, and by the time I got to the back, it was almost impossible to hear what Suzuki Sonoko was saying.
Conan immediately turned on the tracking glasses, and the image on the LCD lens lasted for less than a second before returning to transparency.
He was stunned, and suddenly realized that the tracking glasses might have been broken on the ground after being hit by Hiroyuki Kusaka at the entrance of the restaurant last night.
"Yuanzi, are you cold? Hello? Yuanzi?!" Mao Lilan held the detective armband, but there was no response from it.
The signal is still there... lack of oxygen?
Or the person who imprisoned her discovered... No, if someone else used anesthetics or a stun gun, at least some sound would be made in that kind of space where the echo cannot be concealed.
Ye Gengyi asked Haiyuan Ai: "When playing games, how do you allocate the search range?"
...I once met Suzuki Sonoko in the corridor of the rest area, and Little Radar just went to the guest room on the 6th floor. Hide and seek is not a chasing game. You only need to see the target to be 'caught', so as long as there is a kindergarten Diploma, under the 25-minute game time limit, no matter how hard you think, it is impossible for the two 'ghosts' to act together.
"She looks for things below the 5th floor, and I look for things above the 5th floor." Haiyuan Ai said.
"I know! It's a freezer!" Conan said, turned around and ran away.
Mao Lilan, Mitsuhiko, Yuanta and Ayumi followed closely behind.
Hui Yuan Ai noticed that Ye Gengyi not only did not take the stairs, but instead walked towards the cabin, he was startled for a moment and hurriedly caught up:
"What's wrong?"
"The freezer is on the second underground floor. It's faster to take the elevator." Ye Gengyi said.
Well……
Haibara Ai said with a complicated expression: "Then Edogawa and the others are..."
"It should have gone to the galley. Although any sailor knows the location of the cold storage, only the cooks and some managers who haul supplies have the keys to the cold storage."
Ye Geng paused and continued:
"But... the possibility of Sonoko being locked up there is not high."
"Why?" Hui Yuan Ai was surprised.
"I went to the freezer yesterday to get a watermelon. There is a cold light inside, so it's not very dark. Sonoko can communicate with the detective armband, which means at least one hand can move."
Ye Gengyi walked into the elevator and pressed the button on the second floor: "Also... there is no container over there that can accommodate an adult. Of course, the garden may also be contained in something, and then together with that object We were put into a freezer together."
"I see……"
Hui Yuan Ai suddenly realized, but his expression was not relaxed at all.
The elevator soon reached the second floor.
Stepping into the corridor, feeling the dampness and coldness in the air, Haiyuan Ai suddenly realized another problem:
"Wait a minute... How can we find someone inside without the key?"
"Listen to the sound."
Ye Gengyi took out the detective armband from Haiyuan Ai's pocket, strolled to the distribution box, and cut off the power supply in the cold storage.
The backup power supply starts after 2 seconds, and the beeps and fan sounds of various devices come and go.
However, there was silence over the detective's armband's speaker.
"not here."
Ye Gengyi used the signal from the detective's armband to confirm again that the prop was not damaged, then closed the switch and walked towards the elevator.
"What to do next?" Haiyuan Ai asked.
With Ye Gengyi here, she no longer planned to use her brain.
"Go to the morgue." Ye Gengyi said.
Eh?
Huiyuan Ai was startled and then understood.
That's right...
There is a morgue on the cruise ship, which is built to deal with unforeseen emergencies, such as the natural or unnatural death of crew or passengers during the voyage, and is used to temporarily store the bodies of the victims.
Morgues usually have refrigeration equipment similar to hospitals to ensure that bodies are fully protected and preserved before disposal.
Of course, both respect for the deceased must be taken into consideration, and the interference of the corpse to other passengers must be minimized. The morgue is usually built in a relatively secluded place on the ship, far away from the areas where passengers live and move, and is basically located on the cruise ship. Lowest level.
The lowest deck.
Compared to the cold and humid atmosphere on the second floor, the overall environment here, whether it is the floor, walls, ceiling, or furnishings, is the same as the living area on the upper floor.
Except for the name of the morgue, there is no word "popular" in it.
