The guests were in chaos.
Many people crowded towards this side either passively or actively.
"Don't be impulsive yet!"
In order to avoid an accident, Mouri Kogoro shouted loudly and hurriedly calmed the emotions of the guests. After Megure Thirteen led the team to separate the crowds on both sides at a safe distance, he looked at Akiyoshi Minamiko and said:
"Now that the matter has come to this, I will speak frankly... Miss Akiyoshi, you have already killed Yatsuro Entaro and his daughter for revenge. There is really no need to get deeper and continue to play with the lives of everyone on the ship! Tell me quickly. , have you planted a bomb?"
Sure enough, he knew everything...
The word 'revenge' goes straight to Akiyoshi Minamiko's heart.
Her expression changed involuntarily.
He is a detective after all, and he actually investigated his own affairs unknowingly, but... the person who used the radio to create panic should be Kusaka Hiroyuki. Even if he is caught, he must detonate the time bomb he installed. Delay long enough!
She composed herself, with a hint of determination in her tone, and pointed to the floor of the podium and said:
"If you insist on saying that I did all this, then provide evidence!"
"Evidence... As long as we return to the shore and do a little investigation, we can find it..."
Mouri Kogoro paused briefly: "Because your motive for committing the crime was to avenge Yashiro Hideto who was killed in a car accident half a month ago, right?"
"ah?"
Avenge your enemy? !
Akiyoshi Minami was stunned, and subconsciously muttered: "Me? Revenge for Yashiro Hideto?"
She was so surprised that she even forgot to add the title 'teacher'.
really……
Mouri Kogoro's lips curled up and he reasoned, "That's right! I think you and Mr. Yingito are lovers!"
ha? !
Akiyoshi Minami was startled again, and then she felt a big stone fall directly from her chest. This strong emotional conflict even made her eyes flash with excitement.
It turns out that I was overthinking it, and this famous detective didn’t know anything!
She immediately defended herself:
"Please wait a moment! Mr. Mori, Yashiro-sensei is indeed a very good senior, and I respect him very much, but we are not lovers! Moreover, when the murder occurred, I was also in the room with Mr. Kusaka An alibi for the call!”
In any case, let’s first draw the suspicion to Kusaka Hiroyuki.
"Indeed, we also asked the staff to confirm the call duration..."
Mouri Kogoro's serious face:
"But... in fact, for at least 20 minutes, Mr. Kusaka was reading the story alone, but you didn't say a word. Miss Akiyoshi, your alibi is invalid!"
Akiyoshi Minamiko, as a party to the 'alibi' technique, felt reassured when she heard Kogoro Mori's reasoning, and interrupted scoldingly:
"Please don't go too far! What if Mr. Kusaka stops to talk to me while reading the plot? Then he will find that I am not in the room! I am not stupid enough to use this method to create an alibi! If you insist that I am the murderer, then come up with evidence!"
Wow...that's a lot to talk about...then what's your 'clever' alibi technique?
Ye Gengyi stared at the past with dead eyes.
I always feel that these murderers often show their stupidity in inexplicable links.
Fortunately, this retort, which seemed to be an emotional vent, did not arouse everyone's alertness.
Except for Ye Gengyi and... Kusaka Hiroyuki.
asshole!
As expected, this woman took advantage of my phone number. If she jumped out and identified her now, she would be exposed! Damn it, I must find an opportunity to kill her...
Hiroyuki Kusaka clenched his fists and his body trembled with anger.
He stared there, a little worried that Mouri Kogoro would think of something suspicious about him.
Facing the gazes of everyone, Mouri Kogoro was inevitably a little embarrassed and explained: "I...didn't I say that the evidence needs to be obtained after the cruise ship docks..."
"Mr. Mori! That means you don't have evidence yet, right?" Akiyoshi Minamiko pressed further.
"Uh, this..." Mouri Kogoro sweated.
I thought I could hear some different reasoning, and the murderer was obviously that person...
Conan glanced at Kusaka Hiroyuki in the crowd.
He has already figured out the alibi method. As expected, it should be broadcast using a pre-recorded voice just like the previous broadcast.
But...unfortunately, like Mouri Kogoro, he still has no conclusive evidence to identify the other party.
"Should we use this move directly?"
Conan held the tape recorder he borrowed from Dr. Agasa in his pocket.
With the bow-tie voice changer, and the planning content I saw on Kusaka Hiroyuki’s computer in the afternoon, it was no problem to forge a recording file...
well……
It would be great if we could find some more clues.
He examined Kusaka Hiroyuki, but unfortunately he couldn't find any clues.
In fact he almost found it.
Because until the afternoon, Kusaka Hiroshi was still immersed in the joy of successful revenge. However... Ye Gengyi's disguise as a Nishitama City detective broke this state.
After receiving the information that someone was taking advantage of him, Kusaka Hiroshige, like an 'ordinary person', immediately began to recall the omissions made during the murder. There should be nothing left in Room 604, but when he attacked Yashiro Entaro, his neck was cut. The other party pinched out a few bruises...
He gritted his teeth and raised his hand to touch his neck.
Since there is a risk of being exposed, then pinch some more marks later, and use high-collar clothes to cover them up before they are exposed. If someone points out, it can also be explained as pinching because of lack of inspiration when writing!
Thinking about it, Kusaka Hiroyuki came to the bathroom again.
As a result, when he looked in the mirror, he was shocked to discover the strange color in his hair.
It's blood!
How dangerous...
He shouted that he was lucky and took a shower before the dinner party. He sprinkled the clothes he wore today with juice and threw them into the washing machine.
…
"Hey, Brother Maori, didn't you find any evidence?"
Here, Memu Thirteen is half the focus of this mystery show because he is maintaining order.
Therefore, he could deeply feel that when the aura of the 'famous detective' weakened, the guests who had just stabilized their emotions began to become turbulent again.
After all, if Minami Akiyoshi is not the murderer, then the safety of all of them will not be guaranteed...
"You can't even trust a detective?"
There are already such voices in the crowd.
