There were five other people who advanced along with Kogoro Mouri, including the raccoon cat girl and the strong man wearing a black goat mask.

Rose was excited because she believed that Kogoro Maori's good luck would continue until the final round, and with the blessing of the winning method, everything was under their control.

Suddenly, she seemed to see the lettered name tag in her hand, so she hugged Maori Kogoro's arm and said with a smile: "Dear, the final round is coming soon, you have to do your best!"

However, Kogoro Mori was not so optimistic. He looked at the ballot box thoughtfully with a gloomy expression, as if there was an unsolvable mystery lingering in his mind.

Ross didn't see the smile of victory on Maori Kogoro's face. After thinking for a moment, he decided to knock on his partner before leaving. He walked to the raccoon cat girl and whispered in a low voice: "Sister, you still remember the contents of the agreement."

"My memory is not that bad, woof~" The tabby cat girl smiled brightly, and seemed very satisfied with the current situation. She turned to look at Maori Kogoro and whispered, "The next round will be as planned. I will vote YES, right?"

"No, you vote NO." Kogoro Mouri looked at the tabby cat girl calmly, trying to see through the expression hidden under her mask.

"Okay, no problem." The tabby cat girl agreed without any hesitation, just like before.

But Kogoro Mouri always felt that there was something wrong with this tabby cat girl, but he didn't know what exactly was wrong. He looked down at the two ballots in his hands, wondering what would happen next and what he should do.

Maori Kogoro looked out the window at the inky black sky, touched his stomach, and sighed. He suspected that each round of voting lasted no more than six hours, so what time was it now? Where was the cruise ship at this time?

Before leaving, Ross saw Kogoro Maori folding his ballot again and again until it became a very small piece.

The host randomly selected a person to come up and ask a question, and then the remaining six people in Room 7 began a new round of voting. Due to the small number of people, the voting speed was much faster than before.

The tabby cat girl saw Kogoro Mouri walk to the ballot box and put a very small folded ballot into it.

The strong man wearing a black goat mask glanced at the tabby cat girl, whispered a few words to the people around him, and then went on stage to put the ballot into the ballot box.

At the same time, in Room 1, the second round of voting ended.

Bourbon looked at the searchlights scanning outside the window, and a strong sense of uneasiness came over him. But when he thought that Scotland and Lei had already received their letter name tags and should have left the room by now, there probably wouldn't be any big problems.

The woman wearing the Black Horse mask wheeled over to Bourbon and asked softly, "What's wrong? You've been looking uneasy since a while ago. You're not worried about the free man like I am. Come to think of it, he's advanced again. 14:15, such a close score, I'm worried it will alert others."

Bourbon glanced at the dark horse woman beside him and said in a low voice, "Even with such a close score, we will definitely win. You have confirmed that this is a sure win."

“That’s true, but…” The dark horse woman glanced at the free man who did not belong to any team.

Bourbon followed the black horse woman's gaze to the free man and said thoughtfully, "Could it be that you think there is a loophole in our winning formula?"

"Loophole?" The dark horse girl was slightly stunned, then chuckled, "Maybe the free man will be eliminated in the next round. I don't believe he will always have such good luck."

Bourbon seemed to have other ideas. He looked around and whispered, "While there are still fourteen people in the room, why don't you try to win him over? Even if he asks for a lot, it won't matter as long as we can win the final victory."

The black horse woman was somewhat dissatisfied. If she could win him over, she would have done so long ago. She would not have needed the Siamese cat beside her to remind her. However, that person was simply a hard bone that would not budge. She rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Why don't you go?"

"I think you are more suitable." Bourbon showed a charming smile to the dark horse woman beside him.

"Mr. Siamese Cat, how many women have you charmed with your smiling face?"

Bourbon blinked. "This? I haven't really counted them."

The dark horse woman was a little helpless. She turned her wheelchair and prepared to communicate with others about the next round of voting.

Bourbon breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look out the window again. The dark night sky met the dark sea, and a strong sense of uneasiness swept over him.

On the deck, someone controlled the searchlight, illuminating the sea water inch by inch. Someone else held up a telescope, searching for suspicious figures in the waves.

In the cabin, the gamblers searched almost every cabinet and every corner where a person could be hidden.

However, the gray rabbit, which symbolizes 100 million yen, is still missing.

On the sixth floor deck, Scotland met Ley again, "Did you find her?"

Lei shook his head, took a deep puff of his cigarette, and stubbed it out. "Where do you think she's hiding?"

Scotland frowned, "I'm worried she may no longer be on this cruise ship."

"What do you think the possibility is that she fell into the sea?" Lei also felt that this matter was very tricky.

Scotland pursed his lips tightly.

Lei looked at the endless sea. Tiny stars twinkled in the dark night sky. "Keep looking. I think she should still be on the cruise ship."

The two bottles of whiskey were separated again.

After Mingyue's commotion, the two of them roughly checked almost the entire cruise ship. However, no one found the place where the weapons were stored, nor did they find any clues about Mingyue. It was as if Mingyue had disappeared out of thin air.

However, they found a bomb hidden in the corner, which made them wonder whether there was really an arms deal on this cruise ship, or whether someone was secretly planning other things under the guise of arms deal. After all, members of the Ooka family were on this cruise ship.

Thinking of the recent exchange with the underworld princess Mafia Karen, the two bottles of whiskey made their hearts hang in the balance.

About a few hours ago, led by a tall woman wearing a parrot mask, Two Bottles of Whiskey met with Mafia Karen, who was wearing an artificial eye, in the cafeteria on the ninth floor.

However, the underworld princess wearing a lion mask was a little too friendly to them, which made the two bottles of whiskey suspicious at the same time.

Mafia Karen, who was very curious about Gray Rabbit's companions, met them as she wished and reiterated that she would keep her promise. She also told them that Gray Rabbit had left her room before the game started, and she didn't know where he went. However, she had issued the task in the name of the Karen family.

Scotland really wanted to ask about the specific content of the promise, but he was worried that if he asked, Lei beside him might find out something, or the underworld princess in front of him might see something, so he pursed his lips tightly.

But Lei asked coldly: "If Miss Lion, you could keep your promise, you wouldn't have knocked Gray Rabbit unconscious and taken him away, and this situation wouldn't have happened."

Mafia Karen chuckled. "When I took Gray Rabbit away, you didn't stop me. You're not a good companion. I should have persuaded her to accept the bodyguard I arranged for her."

Lei had a cold face and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Okay, let's get out of here." Mafia Karen waved her hand, "I've said everything I wanted to say to you."

"Please leave, gentlemen. My eldest daughter is about to start eating." The housekeeper wearing a reindeer mask began to chase people away.

Lei and Scotland looked at each other, and decided at the same time that finding Mingyue was more important, so they turned and left.

However, Scotland and Lei, who had searched the cruise ship, were wondering what happened between Mingyue and the underworld princess. Why did the underworld princess also issue a high reward? Was she really just trying to find Mingyue? But she didn't seem to be worried about Mingyue's safety.

So where is the bright moon?

The two bottles of whiskey are unknown.

In Room 7, the third round of voting ended. The host took out the ballots from the ballot box one by one and read aloud the contents on the ballots.

The tabby cat girl voted NO as agreed with Kogoro Mori.

At this time, the host has counted that two people voted NO, three people voted YES, and only the very small ballot folded by Maori Kogoro has not been read out by the host.

But the winner of this round seems to have been determined. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be the tabby cat girl and the black goat man.

However, just as the tabby cat girl was laughing wildly, the host finally unfolded Maori Kogoro's ballot, "Mr. Elephant, voted NO."

The tabby cat girl's laughter suddenly stopped, and she looked at Maori Kogoro in disbelief, "Why did you vote NO like me? You...you broke the contract, you didn't follow the agreement!"

"You have formed an alliance a long time ago, right?" Mouri Kogoro said calmly, his eyes glancing at the tabby cat girl and the black goat man.

A huge “井” character appeared on the forehead of the tabby cat girl, and she growled angrily, “You need evidence to slander someone.”

"Evidence?" Maori Kogoro snorted coldly, "The votes in each round are almost evenly split. Aren't you guys playing tricks? Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen?

"Huh?" The tabby cat girl looked incredulous. "The trial round ended in a tie."

Maori Kogoro cleared his throat and said, "I must admit that my winning method has loopholes, just like there are four teams of eight people on the field."

The tabby cat girl retorted, "Did you not learn math well? There are only thirty of us in the room. How can we form four teams of eight?"

"No, you can, as long as you are in two teams of eight at the same time. Similarly, Mr. Black Goat should have formed two other teams of eight." Maori Kogoro looked at the Black Goat man and continued, "As long as the two of you choose the same option, and the others are evenly distributed as agreed, then the option you are in will always be in the minority."

The tabby cat girl folded her hands in front of her chest and said, "I didn't expect you to see through me. But even if you are right, what can I do?"

"Are you going to tear up the agreement?" Kogoro Mori felt uneasy.

"Agreement, hahahaha..." The tabby cat girl laughed so hard that she fell backwards. "This is the high seas. As long as I have the lettered name tag, what do I have to fear? However, I am a kind person and will not force you to play the game. Thanks to your agreement, I have a way to threaten and use other people. You are worthy of being a man who is thinking about catching cops."

Maori Kogoro was very angry and looked at the host, "If the votes are tied, this round will not count. We have to start over, right?"

"Yes." The host said in a businesslike manner, with no emotion on his face. "This time, please let Mr. Elephant ask questions."

Kogoro Mouri walked onto the stage, stared at the remaining five participants below the stage, and asked the question: "Will you betray the team for personal gain?" He then took the lead in publicly casting his NO vote into the ballot box.

The black goat man frowned slightly.

"If you don't want me to win, you can only become the final winner by voting YES. In that case, at least three victims who voted NO will be selected. I don't think anyone wants to be eliminated!"

Maori Kogoro knew that the so-called team or alliance was not worth mentioning in front of personal interests, but he didn't understand why so many people believed in the two people in front of him, even though he himself was deceived by the tabby cat girl. But fortunately, he found the clues before the end of the game.

His plan was to sow discord among them and make the majority vote YES, and those who voted NO at the beginning would naturally win in the end. (The strategy of the raccoon cat and the expectation of Maori Kogoro) ----------------
