The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

On the side of the ship, Qin Zhibo told Conan what happened on the "Aphrodite" from his own perspective.

In fact, the biggest difference between the two in their investigations is that Conan spared no effort to investigate the murder case of Yashiro's father and daughter.

Because in his speculation, Narumi was attacked by the murderer who killed Yashiro's father and daughter.

While Qin Zhibo was investigating the case, he was also investigating the whereabouts of the iron box.

Of course, Qin Zhibo also got the answer early on the case.

Because Kusaka Hiroyuki is a real person, he has the entire crime plan in his computer.

Later, because he suspected that Akiyoshi Minamiko might help Kusaka Hiroyuki perjury, he sneaked into Akiyoshi Minamiko's room and found out that there was a speargun in her room and a bathrobe was missing.

"What?"

"So you already knew that Minami Akiyoshi was the real murderer?"

Conan was shocked and a little frustrated after hearing Qin Zhibo's investigation.

During this case investigation, I originally thought that I was on the third floor, Qin Zhibo was also on the third floor, and Uncle Maoli was on the underground floor.

It turns out that I am actually on the first floor, Uncle Maori is on the third floor, and Qin Zhibo is on...

atmosphere!

Because the murderer's plan was confirmed relatively early, the bomb installed by Kusaka Hiroyuki in the power distribution room was also dismantled by Qin Zhibo.

"But you knew that Minami Akiyoshi was the real murderer, why didn't you tell her?" Conan asked in confusion.

"No way~" Qin Zhibo waved his hand, "I still have to investigate the iron box, and I don't have time to play reasoning..."

"Besides, isn't there you?"

Qin Zhibo rubbed Conan's head, making Conan blush a little.

Sorry to disappoint you this time...

"But the next step is the highlight..."

Qin Zhibo's expression suddenly became serious, and he continued to talk about his experience in the lower cabin while the welcome reception was going on.

From guessing that the freight elevator passage might be where the iron boxes were hidden, to subduing the four people responsible for moving the boxes, and learning from one of them who was behind the incident.

Of course, the crew member only told Vice Captain Izawa at that time and did not tell Yashiro Hideto.

What happened after that was pretty much what Conan knew.

Qin Zhibo realized that this matter was not simple, and when he returned to the upper cabin, he reserved a life raft and picked up the speargun discarded by Akiyoshi Minamiko on the deck.

Later, everyone was saved at the Black Forest Restaurant.

After Conan heard Qin Zhibo's experience, he also understood why Qin Zhibo did not show up at the welcome reception.

At that time, he really did not expect that the iron box mentioned by Cheng Shi would be the biggest scandal on the "Aphrodite".

"But what is in that iron box?" Conan asked with a slightly anxious look.

"Well..."

Qin Zhibo thought for a moment, and then said to Conan: "Before answering this question, let's go meet someone first..."

"Meeting someone?"

Conan's eyes were a little confused, but he still followed Qin Zhibo.

The cutest combination of height differences found Captain Kaito Wataru of the "Aphrodite" on the back deck of the ship, who was arranging work for his crew.

After waiting for him to finish his work, Qin Zhibo walked up.

"Mr. Kaito, I think it's time to fulfill our previous agreement."

Kaito Du was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Qin Zhibo said that he wanted to talk to him when he got on the life raft.

"Can."

Haiteng Du took a deep breath, his eyes a little heavy, "Then let's find a secluded place first..."

…

Under the leadership of Kaito Du, the three came to a separate cabin.

Kaito Wataru pulled a chair and sat down. Just as he was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of the elementary school student wearing glasses still following him.

"Mr. Qin, this child..."

Qin Zhibo also knew what he was worried about, waved his hand and replied: "It's okay, just pretend he doesn't exist."

Kaito Wataru's expression was still a little worried, after all, those past events were not acceptable to ordinary people.

"But……"

"He's just a child anyway, and he doesn't understand what you're talking about."

As soon as Qin Zhibo finished speaking, Conan very cooperatively moved his eyes to the bridge of his nose in the middle, making that very "intelligent" look in the legend.

Seeing this look, Haiteng Du also believed Qin Zhibo's words.

"All right……"

"This matter started when I served as the deputy captain of the first-generation Yashiro Maru 15 years ago..."

Next, Kaito Wataru talked about his experience on the Yashiro Maru 15 years ago.

The most important part is that on the night of the accident, he found Captain Okita after finding that the ship's GPS positioning system was turned off and the course deviated.

Captain Okita told him his plan and took him to the cargo hold to see a terrifying tentacle monster.

"Captain Okita said the monster is called the 'Black Goat Cub'..."

"He also said that it was the representative of the Supreme Mother Goddess in the human world and could fulfill all human wishes..."

"The premise is to sacrifice blood and life to it."

Kaito Wataru's elbows were leaning on his knees, and his hands were supporting his buried head, as if he was in pain.

Qin Zhibo sat on the chair opposite and asked, "Did you ask him at that time what his wish was?"

Kaito Watari shook his head, his voice low and hoarse.

"No."

"I was so frightened at the time that I couldn't ask any questions. I was just listening to Captain Okita alone..."

After a few seconds of silence, Kaito Wataru added: "But Captain Okita said at the time that he was not going to die soon, so he needed the 'Black Goat Cub' to realize his wish."

"Then he asked me to keep it a secret, pretend I didn't know anything, go back to the cabin, and wait until dawn the next day as if nothing had happened."

"But I couldn't stand that kind of torture, so I piloted the Yashiro Maru and hit an iceberg in the middle of the night."

"You know what happens next..."

Kaito Wataru held his forehead and stopped talking.

Qin Zhibo and Conan looked at each other and knew that this was the information they could get.

Qin Zhibo stood up, patted Hai Tengdu on the shoulder, and said calmly: "The police may come to you later to ask about the cause of the accident 15 years ago."

"If you don't want to be suspected, it's better to stick to what you said from the beginning."

"After all, so many years have passed since the accident. There is no evidence to prove whether what you said is true or false..."

Kaito Watari raised his head suddenly, "Do you believe what I said is true?"

Qin Zhibo nodded seriously.

"certainly."

Hearing this, Kaito Wataru's expression was startled at first, and a few seconds later, two tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

At this moment, the incomprehensible grievances accumulated in my heart for 15 years were finally released.

…

Coming out of the cabin, Qin Zhibo and Conan came to the edge of the deck.

The warm sea breeze blew past his face, but a hint of coolness surged in Conan's heart.

He had just listened to Kaito Du's complete description of the accident 15 years ago. Even without Qin Zhibo's introduction, he had some guesses about this incident.

"So, is that monster called the 'Black Goat Cub' inside that iron box?"

"Yes."

Qin Zhibo confirmed Conan's conjecture.

After hearing the answer, even though he had never seen the monster with his own eyes, after hearing Kaito Wataru's brief description just now, Conan had a rough idea of ​​what the monster might look like.

But no matter how he imagined it, the unspeakable unknown creature was more terrifying than he imagined.

Conan's face darkened and he continued to analyze on his own.

"In other words, this incident should be a continuation of the accident 15 years ago..."

"15 years ago, Captain Okita cooperated with Yashiro Hideto and put the 'Black Goat Cub' on the first-generation Yashiro Maru. He wanted to reach the backward primitive island during the voyage and sacrifice the primitive tribes on the island. Lose."

"Today, 15 years later, the eighth generation British man cooperated with the deputy captain and wanted to sacrifice all the passengers on the 'Aphrodite'..."

Conan was analyzing calmly when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Qin Zhibo looking at him.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Is there something on my face?"

Qin Zhibo shook his head, "No, I just feel like these words coming out of your mouth are..."

"Violation."

Indeed, for Conan, who had always been engaged in reasoning and talking about evidence, suddenly all he was analyzing was unscientific words like "sacrifice", which Qin Zhibo was not used to.

Conan smiled slightly and put his hands in his pockets, "Really? You'll just get used to it in the future..."

To be honest, he himself did not expect that one day he would investigate these unscientific things.

At least for the self a year ago, he would find out a year later that those things he originally thought were unscientific actually existed, and he would definitely not believe it even to death.

"Right."

Conan suddenly said: "When I mentioned the 'Supreme Mother Goddess', I remembered that when Minami Akiyoshi was studying in the restaurant, she had a book about that in her hand."

"She said that book was given to her by Yashiro Hideto."

"Oh, really?"

Qin Zhibo noticed the book Akiyoshi Minamiko was holding at that time, but he didn't pay much attention to the content.

It seems that Conan is indeed very lucky and can always come into contact with key clues inadvertently.

After getting new clues, the two went to look for Akiyoshi Minamiko again.

Since Akiyoshi Minamiko is now a prisoner, she was detained in the lowest cabin of the ship. When the ship lands, she will be taken to the Metropolitan Police Department for further interrogation.

Qin Zhibo found Officer Mumu, activated his face fruit ability, and got the opportunity to talk alone for 10 minutes.

…

"That book?"

"I'm sorry, I put that book in the room on the ship, and now it has sunk to the bottom of the sea with the 'Aphrodite'."

"As for the content inside, I actually just started reading it and didn't take down any very useful information."

Akiyoshi Minamiko was sitting on the chair with her legs crossed. Although her hands were handcuffed, she still looked leisurely and contented.

Unlike Kusaka Hiroyuki, she had long been prepared to kill her enemies and sink into the sea with the "Aphrodite". Even if she was caught by the police, she would have no loss.

It's nothing more than spending a long time in jail.

Qin Zhibo nodded understandingly and continued to ask: "What about your father, Captain Okita? How much do you know?"

Mentioning her father, Akiyoshi Minamiko's eyes showed a trace of heaviness.

"My impression of my father mainly stays before the age of 12."

"Since my mother and father divorced, I have never seen my father again..."

Qin Zhibo glanced at the information above Qiuyoshi Mihaiko's head. She is now 32 years old.

Although she looks similar to Fei Yingli, she is actually 5 years younger than Fei Yingli.

Akiyoshi Minamiko continued: "Although my father and I rarely meet, he is still the person I respected most when I was a child. It was my father who made me yearn for the sea..."

Seeing that Akiyoshi Minamiko was a little off topic, Qin Zhibo quickly made the question more specific.

"What I want to know is Captain Okita's previous experience, such as what kind of ship he has sailed, or what other noteworthy things he has done..."

Akiyoshi Minamiko frowned slightly, thought for a few seconds, and then said slowly: "I don't know exactly where my father works or what he did. I only know that he is the captain of a ship."

"But I heard from my mother that my father did not work on the Yatsushiro Group's ship before, but on a ship owned by another large group."

"I remember the name of that group was..."

Qin Zhibo: "Karasuma Group?"

Akiyoshi Minami looked at Qin Zhibo across from him in surprise, and nodded slowly, "That's indeed the name..."

Conan, who was standing nearby, was a little surprised when he saw that Qin Zhibo guessed it right. He turned to look at Qin Zhibo.

"I understand, thank you, Miss Akiyoshi."

After getting the key clues, Qin Zhibo no longer stayed too much.

Leaving the cabin where Akiyoshi Minamiko was imprisoned, Conan, who was following Qin Zhibo, quickly asked, "How do you know the name of that group?"

Qin Zhibo's face was very solemn.

He paused for a second, then turned his head and said seriously to Conan.

"The Karasuma Group is exactly what the organization is called on the surface."

"Organization..." Conan looked startled, "Is this the organization you are talking about?"

"Yes." Qin Zhibo nodded affirmatively, "It is the black organization you are familiar with."

Hearing these words, Conan's mind was like a thunder, and it suddenly exploded with a bang.

The Karasuma Group, or the Karasuma Consortium.

Not many young people today know this name, and even most people who lived 40 years ago have never heard of this consortium.

Because the Internet did not exist at that time and traditional media was not developed, most people had no way of knowing who controlled the top resources of this pyramid society.

Even the Suzuki Foundation, which is now at its peak, was only a "kid" that had been established for 20 years at that time.

Because of this, the Karasuma Foundation has left very few records in history.

But when Qin Zhibo suddenly mentioned this, the first thing Conan thought of was the top rich man named "Karasuma" in the Dusk Villa.
