Chapter 1371 Things in the Box(1/2)
"bomb!"
"There's a bomb!"
Upon hearing the name "Eight Eggs", the guests at the scene screamed in horror and moved to the rear to avoid it.
The whole venue was in chaos.
"If you don't want the ship to sink, just listen to me!"
Hiroyuki Kusaka held the detonator in his hand as if holding a talisman.
Mumu quickly raised his hand to persuade, "Calm down first!"
"Why on earth are you doing this?"
Facing the police's questions, Kusaka Hiroyuki roared: "It's to avenge my father!"
"Fifteen years ago, the crew member who died on the Yashiro cargo ship was my father!"
"Two years ago, I heard many doubts about the shipwreck from colleagues who came to pay homage to my father."
"The then Yatsushiro Merchant Marine president and Entaro, who was a director, planned to sink the cargo ship in order to defraud the insurance money to survive the financial crisis!"
"Also, in order to get rid of Captain Okita, who always asked for better treatment of crew members, they won over Kaito Wataru, who was the deputy captain at the time..."
Facing the accusations made by Kusaka Hiroyuki, Kaito Wataru on the stage remained unmoved and unmoved.
Hiroshige Kusaka stared at Kaito Wataru and said coldly: "You agreed to join them, made Captain Okita drink coffee mixed with sleeping pills, and then deliberately caused the ship to hit an iceberg and detonated the prepared bomb at the same time..."
"The location where the bomb was installed was also in accordance with the instructions of the designer Hideto Yashiro, right?"
Kaito Wataru on the stage remained silent.
Only Akiyoshi Minamiko looked surprised, showing an expression of surprise, "I didn't expect that the teacher would..."
In order to delay time, Megure continued to follow Hirosei Kusaka's words and asked: "Kusaka, tell me how you killed Yashiro Chairman?"
Kusaka Hiroyuki snorted coldly and replied nonchalantly: "Because that old guy pressed me with his body and strangled my neck, so I threw him over my shoulder and threw him into the sea..."
"Then I plan to imitate you in blowing up a ship, and then I will take advantage of the commotion to kill you."
On the stage, Kaito Wataru looked down at Hiroyuki Kusaka, his eyes slightly focused, and he opened his mouth to say something, but still couldn't.
At this moment, a male guest quietly approached Kusaka Hiroyuki from behind.
Megure saw it immediately, but now he could not stop the guests' behavior. He could only yell to attract Kusaka Hiroyuki's attention.
"Wait a minute! Kusaka!"
"Please take your fingers off the buttons of the remote control first, and then we can sit down and have a good chat..."
"Stop nagging!"
Hiroyuki Kusaka yelled at Megure, but from the corner of his eye, he happened to glance at the male guest rushing towards him from behind.
He twisted his body to the side, just in time to avoid the male guest's pounce, and at the same time pressed the detonator with his finger.
Not far away, Conan, who was still taking a detour and preparing to shoot Sunaka with an anesthetic needle, saw this scene and suddenly felt bad.
Too bad!
But just when Conan was ready to receive the first wave of bomb impact, the ground of the venue did not shake at all, nor was there any explosion sound.
There was also a trace of doubt in Kusaka Hiroyuki's eyes. He stared at the detonator in his hand and impatiently pressed the detonation button several times in succession.
However, there was still silence in the banquet hall, and nothing happened at all.
Conan's face was shocked. Could it be that the detonator was broken?
Memu, who was a few meters away, also realized this and rushed forward with his men.
"Get him!"
"ha!"
Takagi, Shiratori and Megure rushed towards Hiroyuki Kusaka, pressing him down like an Arhat, and snatched the detonator from his hand.
When Kusaka Hiroyuki got up from the ground again, he had already put on a pair of silver bracelets on his hands.
"I'm not willing to give in!"
"I'm not convinced!"
Kusaka Hiroyuki was being held on the left and right by Takagi and Shiratori, still roaring angrily.
"Why am I the only one being arrested? The man who killed my father is still standing there fine!"
Kusaka Hiroyuki glared at Kaito Wataru on the stage. This man never showed any apology from beginning to end, and his mood did not even fluctuate much.
Mumu said with a serious face: "If what you said is true, of course we will not miss a criminal..."
Immediately, he turned to Kaito and said, "Mr. Kaito, could you please come over and cooperate with our investigation?"
Kaito Du nodded, "Okay, but before that I have to explain something to my crew..."
With Megure's tacit approval, Kaito Wataru turned to give instructions to the crew members around him.
Everything looked happy.
Conan looked at the case that was successfully solved and also buckled the anesthesia needle launcher aiming cap on his watch.
The guests at the venue gradually became more relaxed, and the aftermath put a smile on everyone's face.
As soon as Conan returned to the identity of the three little ones, he was questioned by the three little ones.
"Conan, where were you just now?"
"Me? Hehe..."
The corners of Conan's mouth raised slightly, he was of course ready to become "Mr. Key".
As a result, Mr. Key didn't take it seriously, and Kusaka Hiroyuki's detonator broke at the critical moment.
However, this guy's luck was too bad. The detonator actually broke. This was the first time Conan encountered a bomber who ended up in such a hasty manner.
Hasty ending...
Suddenly, Conan's expression changed.
He remembered that in the previous Tokyo Tower bombing case, someone had disposed of the bomb installed by the bomber in advance and made a fake bomb that was a false shot.
And that person is Qin Zhibo.
Could it be that the failure of the detonator this time was not luck at all, but that Qin Zhibo predicted the murderer's plan in advance and broke the detonator?
Moreover, Qin Zhibo once stayed in Kusaka Hiroyuki's room for the reason of reading the script, and he probably took advantage of that time to do something.
Could it be that in this case, Uncle Maoli was on the first floor, he was on the third floor, and Qin Zhibo was standing directly on the fifth floor.
He solved the case early and ruined the murderer's plan, and then chose not to take action in order to give himself a chance to show off.
This uncle...
While Conan was thinking, the conversation between Yuanzi and Mao Lilan came from behind.
"How strange?"
"Yuanzi, what's strange?" Mao Lilan turned to look at Yuanzi.
Sonoko's eyes were a little confused, holding her chin with one hand, and recalled: "I remember my mother said that the Yashiro Group owes our Suzuki family a big favor..."
"Fifteen years ago, the Yashiro Group had a financial crisis. It was Suzuki's capital injection that allowed it to successfully overcome the crisis. In order to repay the favor, the Yashiro family also asked their designer Mr. Hideto Yashiro to design the 'Shabnis' for free."
"Did I remember it wrong?"
Conan glanced back at Yuanzi and frowned slightly.
If what Sonoko said is true, the way the Yashiro Group weathered the crisis 15 years ago was by seeking help from the Suzuki Consortium instead of defrauding insurance companies.
So the sinking of the cargo ship 15 years ago was not caused by the Yashiro father and daughter teaming up with deputy captain Kaito Wataru to bomb the ship, but there was something else hidden...
boom!
Suddenly there was a loud noise at the bottom of the cabin.
The ground in the entire venue shook violently, and the guests who had just regained their composure were instantly panicked. Screams and the crackling of things breaking could be heard incessantly.
Mumu looked around in panic and asked loudly: "What happened!"
There was cold sweat on Shiratiao's forehead, "Maybe there was an explosion somewhere..."
"Explosion?" Meguro tilted his head and glanced at the detonator in his hand, then turned to look at Hiroyuki Kusaka, "Did you install other bombs?!"
The arrested Kusaka Hiroshige also shook his head in confusion, "I don't know..."
At this time, Kaito Wataru also ran over and said to Megure: "Mr. Police, I have to confirm the damage to the ship now. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave with you for the time being."
Megure's eyes were fixed and he knew the seriousness of the situation, so he could only let Kaito Wataru, the captain, leave to take command of the entire ship.
At the same time, Akiyoshi Minamiko, who was watching Kaito Wataru leave, also took steps and quietly left the venue.
…
On the other side, Qin Zhibo was walking in the cargo passage at the bottom of the cabin.
To be continued...
