Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

In the cruise restaurant, Gao Cheng saw Kogoro Mori and his party again, but the situation was very embarrassing.

The old man Ban Ben sternly asked his son-in-law, "Who is he? Did you bring him on board on your own initiative?"

The husband of the head of the family, Hokuro Banner, panicked and said, "No, I've never seen him before..."

"Well, he is..." Mao Lilan wanted to help, but was taken aback by the old man's terrifying eyes.

"Is it a thief?" Old Man Banner snorted coldly.

"I'm really sorry," Gao Cheng hastily explained, "Actually, I came here on my own to investigate something. I'm from the Kido Detective Agency..."

"Detective?!" Gao Cheng hadn't finished speaking, the faces of the Banners present all changed.

"Hmph!" Old Man Banner left the restaurant with a gloomy face, "Put this guy up first, and hand him over to the police when we arrive in Tokyo!"

"Ah?" Seeing everyone's reaction, Gao Cheng asked confusedly, "What, what's wrong?"

Xia Jiang, the grandfather's granddaughter, said apologetically, "My grandfather hates detectives the most. He said that detectives are despicable guys who stalk people and steal people's privacy..."

"Eh?"

Gao Cheng was locked into the warehouse with a dazed expression. After realizing it, he hurriedly knocked on the door and said, "Wait a minute! Something is going to happen on this ship. I mean it! Let me out!!"

"Brother Gao Cheng, they are all gone."

Conan stayed alone, leaning against the outside of the warehouse and said something obediently, but couldn't help muttering in his heart: "It's really incredible, I can meet you like this."

"Well," Gao Cheng sat aside helplessly, frowned and asked outside the door, "You said they won't really hand me over to the police?"

Conan said noncommittally: "But Brother Gao Cheng came here secretly, and he also said that he is a detective."

"Who knew they hated detectives so much, besides, aren't Maori detectives also detectives?" Gao Cheng was even more depressed when he mentioned this.

"Uncle hasn't told them yet." Conan paused, then suddenly asked, "Hey, brother Gao Cheng, you said something is going to happen here, is it true?"

"Of course it is true. This is my instinct as a detective."

"Ha ha."

...

In the cabin, Hajimoto Takeshi (whose surname follows the woman because of marriage) who just married Hagimoto Xiajiang was called into the room by the old man.

"Xiao Wu, you performed well at today's wedding," said Mr. Qiben, sitting quietly on the sofa, "Xia Jiang really knows how to choose a husband."

"Ha, thanks for the compliment."

Ban Benwu shyly scratched his face with his fingers. Seeing this scene, the old man snorted and said, "Scratching his face whenever he is shy, really looks like a person."

"Ah?" Takeshi Banmoto didn't know why.

"You are like your father, a brave man in the city of wealth!" The old man said with a sullen face, "Do you think you can hide it from me by tampering with your household registration? You sneaked into the company and took the opportunity to get close to Xia Jiang to avenge your father. I knew it a long time ago! Say, what is your purpose?!"

The old man looked coldly at Takeshi Ban whose face changed drastically: "Do you want money or my life?! Say it! What's wrong? You have nothing to say? Say it!"

"Cuckoo!" Gao Cheng screamed from the cruise warehouse, hungry.

It was getting late, because he was afraid of missing the boat, so he didn't even eat before.

"That Conan guy actually doesn't care about me, if this goes on..."

During dinner time, the old butler walked outside the room of Mr. Qiben. Seeing that he didn't respond to his calls, he had to take out the spare key: "Excuse me, sir, everyone is waiting for you..."

Opening the door, the old butler's expression changed suddenly, and he backed away in horror: "Master—!"

The exclamation resounded through the cabin, and Gao Cheng in the warehouse heard the sound immediately, and hurriedly slammed on the warehouse door and shouted: "What happened? Hey, open the door!"

"Bang bang!"

I took several shots in a row,

But the people on the boat seemed to be attracted by the cry, and no one cared about him.

In a hurry, Mao Lilan ran over in a hurry, opened the latch outside the door and said, "It's no good, Gao Chengjun, Xia Jiang's grandfather was killed!"

"What? That old man?"

Following Mao Lilan to the murder scene, Gao Cheng saw people gathered around the door of the room, and Mao Li Kogoro had already started reasoning.

The suspect is identified as Banner Xia Jiang's newlywed husband Takeshi Banner.

Banner Takeshi's true identity is revealed. He is Takehiko Caishiro, the son of Takehiko Caishiro who committed suicide ten years ago when Mr. Banamoto took the company away.

Mao Li Kogoro scolded in a deep voice: "You got close to Xia Jiang and sneaked into the Banner's family in order to avenge your father... In fact, you have premeditated this murder!"

"That's not it!" Takeshi Banmoto said anxiously, "I didn't kill anyone! Really, believe me!"

Gao Cheng squeezed into the crowd, watched with a gloomy expression on Takeshi Banmoto being taken to the warehouse: "No, it wasn't him, the murderer wasn't this person."

Not just because he didn't believe Kogoro Mori's reasoning, but because he already knew the real culprit.

Gao Cheng glanced over the crowd.

Although he didn't know which one it was, he knew the relationship between the prisoner and the deceased.

Because he had bought the first volume of Conan's manga before, and it happened to have this part about the luxury liner. I don't know which bastard drew a circle for the murderer at the beginning, "This is the murderer".

That was the first time he saw it, so he still vaguely remembered the identity of the murderer.

If there is no mistake, the murderer should be the grandson of the deceased, and Takeshi Banner was just blamed.

But how can we find evidence?

Gao Cheng followed Conan into the room where the corpse was, but he couldn't see much.

"Do you want to use the famous detective mode?" Seeing that Conan seemed to have discovered something, Gao Cheng thought to himself, "No, there is only one minute. If you don't have enough time, it will be troublesome. Try to find clues first."

"Big brother," Conan picked up a piece of bread crumbs from the blood, and asked Gao Cheng abruptly, "There seems to be bread crumbs in the blood, what's going on?"

He is very curious about being able to predict events by intuition, whether it is a coincidence or not, or whether he made up nonsense in order to leave the warehouse before.

"Huh?" Gao Cheng came back to his senses and stared at the blood-stained bread crumbs on Conan's hands for a while. Although he knew that it should be a clue, he couldn't figure out why, so he could only stammer, "Well, I think it might be It must be that the old man has eaten bread."

"That's it."

Conan turned around with a disappointed look on his face, and the corners of his mouth twitched secretly: "Sure enough, he is just a confused detective, and he was almost deceived by this guy again...Huh? Why did you say again?"

Shaking his head vigorously, Conan turned to the old butler and asked, "Butler Suzuki, is there any bread for today's wedding banquet?"

"Ah?" The old butler was stunned, and replied, "Of course, because it's French cuisine. This is Master Xiang'er who runs the French restaurant. He insisted on doing this."

"Then did everyone eat bread?" Conan continued to ask.

"Well, besides the master, the master hates western food the most, especially bread..."

"Damn it." Out of the corner of Gao Cheng's eye, he glanced at Conan who was asking questions, and then returned to the rest of the Banner family.

Conan's powers of observation are indeed very good, he can even notice the inconspicuous bread crumbs in the blood, and he is much better at finding clues than him.

But what he needs to do most now is to find out who the murderer is and who the old man's grandson is. He doesn't know the banner family here at all, let alone figure out the relationship between these people.
