Conan: Above force, everything is truth!

After everything was settled, the hide-and-seek game on the cruise ship officially began.

Ryuno and Sonoko stood there, waiting for Xiaolan and others to hide.

Conan glanced at Ryuno's back, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

Although it was just a small game of hide-and-seek, even so, he would not lose to this guy! !

Conan quickly ran down the stairs, thinking about the perfect place to hide on the ship.

After all, being able to correctly judge and find a suitable place to hide is also the "mission" of a detective!

Wait, Takeda!

I will definitely hide in a wonderful place!

You can't find me! ! !

At this moment, three children playing with a ball appeared in his sight.

In order to catch the 10 o'clock movie, the children put down the ball in their hands and quickly ran to the cinema on the ship.

Looking at the ball rolling on the ground, Conan's mouth twisted.

He subconsciously walked to the ball and stepped on it with one foot.

She practiced her ball skills on the wall with a whale painted on it not far away, and completely forgot her "grand words" just now.

A few minutes later, Sonoko looked at her watch and ended the timing.

"Tatsuno, you are responsible for the part below the fifth floor, and I am responsible for the part above the fifth floor~ After finding someone, use your mobile phone to contact them!"

"Okay."

A minute later, Sonoko walked down the stairs from the east and saw Conan who was playing football against the wall.

—— "Bang", "Bang"

Seeing that Conan was still playing football and didn't care about her arrival at all, Sonoko couldn't help but cough lightly.

After hearing this light cough, Conan stopped and walked towards Sonoko with the ball.

"Sister Sonoko, what's the matter?"

Sonoko raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Conan, did you forget something?"

"Forgot something... ah?!" Conan opened his mouth wide and froze in his place.

The next moment, the ball rolled from his hand to the ground.

Looking at the stunned Conan, Sonoko smiled, took out her phone and sent a text message - "Conan has been found".

At the same time, Ryuno just walked to the door of the restaurant.

Looking at the text message from Sonoko, Ryuno's mouth curled up slightly.

Before, he felt Conan's "angry" eyes, and he thought Conan would hide seriously and "compete" with him.

Unexpectedly, in less than a minute, this kid was caught, and it was caught by Sonoko.

Thinking of this, Ryuno smiled, put away his phone and walked into the restaurant.

Although he could directly let Xiao Jia locate the people he had bound, it was really boring to do so.

What's more, his five senses have long exceeded the scope of ordinary people.

Even without the cheating method of "positioning", his existence itself can be called a "plug-in".

After entering the restaurant, Ryuno looked around and showed a kind smile.

The next moment, Tatsuno stopped his steps and quietly walked to a dining table.

Looking closely, the tablecloth was shaking unnaturally, and there was a "hehehe" laugh under the table.

The next second, Tatsuno leaned over and pushed aside the tablecloth, chuckled and said: "Yuta, come out~"

"Ah?! How did you find me..." Yuanta crawled out from under the dining table and said unwillingly.

"Your laughter is already loud, and your body is against the tablecloth. When you laugh, the tablecloth will make strange movements."

Yuta: "..."

After finding Yuanta, Tatsuno also sent a text message to Sonoko.

Soon after, Sonoko also found Mitsuhiko, who was disguised, in the reception hall of the ship.

Tatsuno found Huihara Ai and Ayumi behind two vases in the corridor of the ship's hold.

So far, everyone except Xiaolan has been found.

...

At the same time

Mr. Kusaka Hironari in the suite called Miss Akiyoshi Miwako.

"Miwako? I'm Kusaka."

"Yes, Mr. Kusaka, you go."

"Let's not waste time talking. I'll start with the list of characters. Nanami Okazaki, 20 years old, a waitress on the Southern Cross luxury cruise ship..."

After talking about the characters, Kusaka Hironari quietly pressed the play button on the recorder in his hand, and then placed it next to the phone.

Then, a strange white light appeared on his glasses, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Before going out, he put on the coat issued on the ship and put on the hood.

At the same time.

After hearing a slight change in Kusaka Hironari's voice, Akiyoshi Miwako on the phone also covered her glasses with a thick layer of light, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

...

Cruise ship deck.

Everyone except Xiaolan gathered together.

Sonoko rubbed her chin with one hand, frowning slightly: "Sure enough, Xiaolan is the mostHard to catch..."

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko and the other two were puzzled: "Ah? Is Xiaolan good at hiding?"

"Good at hiding? Not that simple! To me, she is simply a ninja!" Sonoko put her hands on her hips and said, "Have you ever seen elementary school students playing hide-and-seek, sticking to the ceiling or hiding in the pond?"

Mitsuhiko and the other two imagined such a scene and frowned in astonishment.

"Heaven, ceiling..."

"In the pond? ”

“Amazing…”

Tatsuno and Conan looked at each other, then closed their eyes and nodded.

When they were in elementary school, although they rarely played hide-and-seek with Xiaolan and Sonoko, they could often hear Xiaolan’s “glorious deeds” from Sonoko.

Since Xiaolan’s physical strength and athletic ability were extremely outstanding since she was a child, she could always easily do things that ordinary elementary school students could not do.

This was particularly prominent in hide-and-seek.

At that time, Xiaolan had a resounding title in the class-“The Young King of Hide-and-Seek”.

“Tatsuno, there are still more than ten minutes. We can’t give up!” After looking at the watch, Sonoko clenched her fist and looked at Tatsuno solemnly.

“Okay, then we split up…”

Tatsuno had just said halfway when Sonoko suddenly remembered something and patted Tatsuno’s shoulder excitedly.

“Wait, Tatsuno, you should go find it yourself! I'll just be watching these little brats here~"

Without waiting for Tatsuno to speak, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi looked at Sonoko in confusion.

I didn't understand why Sonoko changed her attitude so quickly, and even threatened to let Tatsuno find the "ninja-like" Xiaolan by himself.

Sonoko noticed everyone's confusion and smiled: "Speaking of which, such a thing happened before~"

"It happened in the first grade of elementary school. Once we were playing hide-and-seek, just like now, only she was left. "

"At first, no one was surprised, because Xiaolan always managed to hide until the end. But until the end of the specified game time, Xiaolan still didn't come to the agreed meeting place before. "

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko and the other two showed worried looks on their faces.

Seeing this, Sonoko lowered her voice and said slowly with a cold expression: "Everyone couldn't find her after searching for a long time... At that time, we suddenly realized that Xiaolan might have been in trouble! "
