Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 319 Shorty Liba Unknown
In order not to scare away others, such as Hattori Heiji or some potential criminals, Jiang Xia specially prepared a hat and scarf when he came this time.

In the freezing seaside, this kind of dress is not special.

There were a lot of people queuing up to participate in the quiz with prizes, some with Rubik's cubes, some with yo-yos, and even a strong man carrying a samurai sword, as if he wanted to show the spirit of a samurai on the spot, but none of these satisfied the organizers. condition.

After the elder brother wielding a knife was dragged away by security, Jiang Xia picked up his luggage, stepped forward, and showed the old banknote to the crew guarding the door.

The crew member smiled politely and raised his hand towards the boarding passage at the back: "Yes, please come in."

……

Enter the passage, and then pass through the corridor, revealing a lobby like the reception of a luxury hotel.

Compared with the vast ship, there were not many passengers on board, and there were only a few people who came with the old banknotes, even fewer than the staff.

A few people stood at the front desk, and some sat on lounge chairs, waiting for the front desk to assign them rooms.

Jiang Xia's eyes swept half a circle, slightly in a trance—a lot of murderous intent, it seems that this ship is full of people with stories.

……

After the people in front left one after another, Jiang Xia got up from the rest chair and walked to the counter.

At the front desk is a young lady with a bun and a standard passerby face.

Jiang Xia looked down at the name registration book she pushed over, and found that each person was an independent page, and the name would not be seen by people later, so she wrote her real name with confidence.

Of course, the wild grass is used, and even if it is seen by others, it cannot be recognized at a glance.

There is also an occupation column on the registration book, and Jiang Xia wrote "student", this time using a slightly more recognizable font.

The front desk took the registration book he handed back, looked at Jiang Xia's handwriting unconsciously, and then showed him the layout of the room, telling him that since there are few guests, he can choose a room he likes.

Jiang Xia casually pointed and chose Room 2.

After receiving the key, on the way to the room, the ghosts were obviously a little more lively than usual. They were attracted by the murderous aura everywhere, and looked around from time to time.

Jiang Xia also took a deep look at several rooms, thinking about who to start with.

In my impression, there was a bank robbery in Tokyo 20 years ago.

Ye Caisan, who was known as the "shadow planner" at the time, took three accomplices and robbed [-] million yuan from the bank and killed a female bank employee.

Ye Caisan is known for his thoughtfulness and impeccable modus operandi. At the same time, he also insisted on only seeking money and not killing.Therefore, after the bank robbery, he learned that the female employee who was shot had died unfortunately, and he felt guilty and wanted to surrender.But he was stopped by three accomplices, and shot into the sea several times to kill him.

The stolen money cannot be used directly, so the remaining three people decided to separate first, and wait for the 20-year prosecution period to pass before withdrawing the money to share the spoils.The safes they use to store money need three things: signatures, seals, and keys to open.In order to prevent someone from taking it privately, the three divided the three unpacking necessities equally, and each of them controlled the same.

At the same time, this kind of item is also the secret signal for their meeting 20 years later—in order to avoid being hunted down, the three of them plan to have their own plastic surgery. It will be difficult to recognize people by face, but only by objects.

However, someone was still thinking about it.

——Now, 20 years later, among the three of them, Jingjing Sadao, who is in charge of signing, decided to invite two accomplices to the boat, kill them one by one, take away their keys and seals, and blame everything on Ye Caisan.When they killed Ye Caisan back then, no outsiders were present. The outside world didn't know that Ye Caisan was dead. It was speculated that Ye Caisan fled in fear of crime after the murder.

And to put the blame on, someone needs to reason.

That's why Sadao Kei, who lives in Kansai, wrote that anonymous letter inviting Hattori Heiji to board the ship.

At the same time, in order to accurately attract the two accomplices, he used the name "Guchuan University" when he published the game advertisement for the quiz with prizes. "Gu Chuan Da" has few strokes and is very easy to remember. It was a pseudonym commonly used by Ye Caisan in the past.

Jingjing Dadao feels that the outside world does not know this, and only his two accomplices understand what it means.

However, in fact, "Guchuan University" is a spelling of the name "Ye Caisan" rotated ninety degrees.

So this time, not only the two accomplices from back then were lured onto the boat, but also Ye Caisan's daughter, the fiancé of the bank clerk who was killed, and her father... …

And Jiang Xia, who memorizes spoilers.

In short, except for the random detectives, the people on this ship were roughly divided into two groups, one group of robbers and one group of victims.

Hidden among the robbers is Sadao Kei who wants to kill all his accomplices.

And the other two robbers actually had some ideas about embezzling property. Although the person who holds the signature cannot be killed, as long as the other person holding the key or seal is removed, one less person will be able to share the money, and six more money will be made out of thin air. 7000 million wealth.

Also, the fiancé of the deceased bank clerk was a tough guy.The middle-aged man named Ebino Minoru brought a large box of time bombs and decided that if the robbers were found on board, he would use the bombs to blow up the entire ship and die together.If no one is found, throw the bomb into the sea.

Both sides are not fuel-efficient lamps, and the neutral Jiang Xia counted the number of people with murderous looks on their bodies, and felt that the trip was worthwhile.

He quickly found the No. 2 room where he was, went in and locked the door, and placed his luggage and body.

Then he transferred his consciousness to his own puppet.

——Before boarding the ship, he deliberately left a puppet in a hidden place near the port.

There are too many people with their own minds on board. Although Hattori Heiji and Conan are very capable of attracting murders, they are not weak at all in causing trouble.Just in case, Jiang Xia felt that he should give himself a helper.

If the situation is controllable, just disperse the puppet, condense it after everything is over, and let it get off the boat and retreat.

And if there is a situation where the puppet can be used, after the act of "boarding the ship", the puppet can appear legitimately.Otherwise, if they come and go without a trace every time, broaden the minds of detectives and make them doubt science, the advantage of puppets will be weakened a lot in the future.

……

Soon, at a corner near the port, a puppet stood up, took an old ten-thousand-yen banknote, and walked towards the murderous ship.

The puppet was wearing a long black dress, a black wide-brimmed hat, and a pair of large sunglasses on his face, covering the unhidden "z" pattern under his right eye.

That's right, this time, Jiang Xia chose Miyano Akemi as the stuffing for the puppet.

As for other ghosts... Fog Tengu and Mermaid are not suitable to appear in places other than comic exhibitions; parent ghosts can only embrace and get on board, or expend a lot of murderous energy to shrink one of them as much as possible, turning into a thin but weird beer belly A man, or a pregnant woman who looks like she's about to give birth... As for Xiao Bai, the appearance of Xiao Bai's puppet is still a child.
