Boss monthly girly

So are you and I alive, or dead?

For a time, the whole ship entered a state of emergency.

Passengers who need to be appeased need to reorganize and manage supplies and food to prevent emergencies when there is a shortage, and they are also busy finding the reason for leaving the route and re-determining the route.

At this time, Dr. Xie Ye showed his prowess. Diarrhea can be easily cured without even using Please Don’t Die. Nozaki-kun can directly exchange any materials needed from the mall to solve it.

Toru Amuro first returned the boss of the rabbit to Nozaki-kun before he was busy helping.Before leaving, he repeatedly told Nozaki-kun to be optimistic about the strange talking rabbit, so that he would not be eaten as a reserve food by other panicked guests.

Rabbit Boss: "...I think I'm going to rest, maybe I'm a little seasick."

Nozaki-kun nodded: "Okay boss, please rest quickly, I will let you go back."

Taking the boss back to the pet pen, Nozaki-kun and Xiao Chiyo approached Bellmode and Mr. Ranpo to discuss what to do next.

Mr. Ranpo: "I have roughly figured out the composition of this dungeon."

Everyone: "——!!" That's all I know!As expected of Mr. Ranpo!

Mr. Ranpo: "With that little detective and the police here, the answer to the mystery will be revealed sooner or later. Belmode also has a premonition, right?"

Belmode flicked his hair: "Ah, that's true. Because I met an acquaintance, I can guess it with a little speculation. But there is a problem here, Mr. Ranpo. To solve the mystery, follow our strategy It's two different things."

Mr. Ranpo looked at Nozaki-kun: "What do you think, Nozaki-kun? Do you want to finish this dungeon as soon as possible and leave here, or do you want to follow the plot?"

Nozaki-kun stroked his chin and summed it up: "Just because Mr. Ranpo is here, we can know the best choice, and skip directly to the game to clear the level, right?"

Xiao Chiyo said with emotion: "But Nozaki-kun will definitely not choose this way."

Nozaki-kun nodded: "That's right, for story games, what's the fun in skipping all of them, then aren't we machines that press options?"

Mr. Ranpo smiled: "Ah, I knew you would say that. In that case, it is better for us to act separately. If I act together with you, I will accidentally tell you what you don't know, and reduce your fun in the game. "

Belmode chuckled: "It's really funny, Mr. Ranpo."

Nozaki-kun: "Eh? But, I'm not good at deduction games?"

Xiao Chiyo was also worried: "That's right, Nozaki-kun is best at dragging everything around him into his own pace, if you let go of Mr. Ranpo, what if the ghost ship on the water turns into a girl manga theater on the water?" manage!"

Nozaki-kun complained: "Little Chiyo~"

Xiao Chiyo: "I, what I said is the truth!"

Mr. Ranpo: "Pfft, that's not bad. I'm worried about other aspects. This dungeon... Nozaki-kun, no matter what truth you learn from this dungeon, don't forget that you are our Master."

Nozaki-kun: "Huh?"

Mr. Ranpo left some confusing words, and went to find Conan to have fun.Sure enough, detectives and detectives are attracted to each other. The list of reasons in front of him is actually foreshadowing the fact that he can freely find Conan!

As for Dr. Xie Ye, they couldn't leave at this time. After the treatment, the captain had other things to do. Dysentery is a vicious infectious disease. Disinfection and other work are necessary, otherwise others will be infected.

Seeing that Belmode has mixed in with those flustered wealthy guests, he is able to do what they should, effectively calming the emotions of most of them. People are animals affected by the atmosphere. If the people around them are flustered, I can’t help but Feeling that the situation is serious and panicked, if someone appears extremely calm and lightly states that the situation has turned for the better, others will also breathe a sigh of relief.

Nozaki-kun: "... I always feel that counting me is the most useless."

Xiao Chiyo: "No, no, Nozaki-kun can, um, try necromancy? See if there are any ghosts on the ship? If so, do you know what happened to the missing crew members?"

Nozaki-kun: "Okay, let me try."

Using necromancy to detect, there are really undead on board!

Nozaki-kun didn't use the spell to make the undead manifest, that would be too scary, and he is not yet mentally prepared to see the hell.He tried to communicate with voice only, but found that the undead was not omniscient like the world said, but more like being at a loss. They didn't even know that they were dead. They repeated a sentence or two and their actions before death. They were very fragile existences.

From the words of the undead, they deduced that this was the missing sailor.

That's right, the sailor died.

But it wasn't murder or a curse, he simply contracted dysentery, and the attacks were so severe that he died of dehydration.

Yes, the sailor was the pathogen, and the captain was infected.At that time, it was discovered that the sailor was sick, and the captain made a decisive decision and ordered the sailor to be thrown directly into the sea, and then disinfected immediately.But it was too late, he himself was infected.

Xiao Chiyo couldn't help covering her mouth: "Throwing it into the water...is it too cruel? There is no body left, just throw it like this, and then tell the public that he is missing?"

Nozaki-kun thought for a while, and replied: "The sailor is dead, and his body is the source of infection. To protect other people on board, he can only do this. After that, the first officer concealed it, saying that the sailor was missing, and it was to protect the captain. Second, I am afraid that people will notice that the infection of dysentery is so serious or even fatal. For sea-going ships, if they are exposed to infectious diseases on board, they will not be allowed to dock. What is more serious is that after a long time , can’t get the guests. What’s more, we are lost now, we need supplies and rescue, if we let the panicked guests know the truth, it will only lead to a worse situation.”

Xiao Chiyo was very sad. The reason was clear, but she was still very sad after hearing it.

Nozaki-kun was thinking about something, and suddenly, he had an epiphany.

Nozaki-kun: "Xiao Chiyo, the route taken by this ship is the route taken by the ghost ship at that time, right?"

Xiao Chiyo: "That's right. What's the matter, Nozaki-kun?"

Nozaki-kun went to the crew again to confirm, and found that the course deviation was caused by a compass error. Up to now, the compass does not seem to be working normally, so Conan and Mr. Ranpo used other methods to locate the direction and adjust the course.The captain also recovered most of the time, regained control of the ship, and everyone felt a lot more at ease with the experienced sailors.

Nozaki-kun muttered to himself, "It really is."

Chiyo: "Nozaki-kun?"

Nozaki-kun looked at Xiao Chiyo: "The route we took is the same as the previous ghost ship, and there is something wrong with the compass. It is very likely that there are active volcanoes on the seabed here. The magma of the active volcano is rich in iron ore, which will cause damage to the magnetic needle. Influence. When it is quiet, it is a safe route. But sometimes submarine volcanoes operate and magma starts to flow. Although we cannot see it, that is what happens under the deep sea; but the electronic system on the ship, including the compass They're all affected."

Xiao Chiyo couldn't help asking: "But modern ships all use more advanced systems, so they shouldn't be disturbed by this?"

Nozaki-kun sighed: "No matter how advanced the system is, it is also an electronic component, which is more susceptible to interference. When the electronic component is disturbed, the first officer will of course follow the traditional compass to locate, without realizing that the direction pointed by the compass is the wrong direction affected by the magnetic field. "

If it is the captain, I am afraid that when the electronic components are disturbed, he will doubt whether there is a problem with the magnetic field of the earth, and then use other methods to locate it.The chief mate was inexperienced and killed a whole boat.

Nozaki-kun looked at the sea: "Don't you think that what happened on our ship is very similar to the story in the legend of the ghost ship?"

Xiao Chiyo: "——!"

That was a terrible thing.

Off the course, the wrecked ship has only limited food and reserves.The people on board have been waiting for rescue, but they are drifting at sea, and no one can contact them.

What happened after that can be imagined.

It wasn't for some mysterious treasure or other conflicts, but it was simply for food.

Everyone wants to survive, so it becomes a highly competitive survival battlefield.

——This is the ugliest part of human nature, but also the most beautiful part of life.

In order to survive, the same clan killed each other.

Even at the expense of killing each other, there is a strong desire to live.

In the sea, all life is equal, facing its tolerance and its cruelty equally.

"Until now, I finally understand the meaning of this dungeon. The ghost ship refers to our ship. If we don't do something, this place will become a ship carrying ghosts just like the legendary ghost ship."

Nozaki-kun sighed.

After all, he looked at Xiao Chiyo: "And it is very possible that at the beginning of this dungeon, there are only ghosts on board."

Xiao Chiyo: "——!!"

Nozaki-kun said with a sad expression: "When I used necromancy to listen to the voice of the dead sailor, I accidentally discovered that I could also hear the voices of other crew members on the ship. Although it looks like a living person, in fact, the crew They may all be undead. I don’t know what the guests are like, I am a little afraid to confirm, Xiao Chiyo.”

If the crew, who acted like the living, were undead, what about the guests?What are the guests who can see them and interact with them?

If the crew and guests are all undead—able to move, eat, pick up objects, even breathe like a living person, then what is the boundary between life and death?

They... are just like the card characters, they don't have a physical body, but they can have a physical body.

In this game, the boundary between reality and illusion becomes blurred, making people unable to help but suspect——

——I, this existence, do I really exist and still live in this world?

Xiao Chiyo: "Nozaki-kun! This is just a game setting, don't think too much, it's just a game, the game doesn't need logic, it's just a background, don't think too much!"

Nozaki-kun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Well, yes, you are right."

Just a game, our... game.

If it was just an ordinary shipwreck, I am afraid that these people present could handle it properly.

The evidence is that infectious diseases are under effective control.Yes.Conan and Mr. Ranpo also deduced from various clues that the missing sailor died of disease, so they hoped that Dr. Yosano could ensure that the infectious disease would not spread.Dr. Yosano and the crew led the crew to thoroughly disinfect the ship and gave people preventive medicines; Conan and Toro Amuro assembled an effective freshwater collection device, and made a good plan on how to salvage and catch fish as food and preserve precious vitamins Arrangements; Mr. Ranpo and the captain have been confirming and adjusting the course, and most of the time let the ship float along the ocean current, so as to save precious raw materials and use them when necessary.

When everything is in order, even if the land has not yet been seen, everyone has settled down, as if following these together, there is no need to worry, and there will be a way out.

Yes, it's okay if it's just death.In other words, what happened afterwards was not just a shipwreck.

They deviated from the course and haven't found a way to go back, and several people on board went missing.This time it was not sailors, but passengers, which caused a commotion.

Conan checked the scene with Mr. Ranpo, and specially called Dr. Yosano.

Dr. Xie Ye checked the scene first and confirmed that there were no suspicious traces. He ordered people to do disinfection work to prevent the spread of the disease if there was an infectious disease.

From the various clues and traces in the cabin where the missing passengers rested, Conan speculated that the guests had conflicts over food.Someone hides food, and someone else finds it.After the discovery of the shipwreck, food and water became precious resources allocated by quota, which were uniformly dispatched and distributed by the crew.Seeing someone steal food, no matter what the purpose is and whether it's your own or not, can create resentment and lead to a dispute.

But the strange thing is that neither the passenger hiding the food nor the disputed party disappeared, just like the plot in a ghost movie.Only the loaf and water remained where they were.
