Conan: Begins to collaborate with Miss Bayonetta and become famous

Chapter 680: Okay! A Ship of Avengers!

"Let's get back to the plan. The murderer first made us all think that Kanie had killed Kameda, and then dressed him up to look like himself."

"Then he set the body on fire to give people the illusion that he was dead, and then he went into hiding."

"He fired random shots everywhere to disrupt our thoughts, and then attacked his former brother, Mr. Kujirai, at the bow of the ship."

"He realized he had no way out, so he shot himself in the end."

"In fact, these are all his tricks."

"It is to make us believe that Kanie is Tatsuzaizo, and that these murders are his betrayal of his brothers 20 years ago."

"A revenge drama!"

The woman's eyes widened and she trembled violently: "Then... then the murderer is————"

"You're right!" Vermouth nodded: "The murderer is someone else, and he's among the three of you!"

"Hey, Ms. Lu Xin!" Mao Li was a little incoherent: "Are you sure? You should know everything."

"When the explosion happened at the stern, everyone who was here now went to the upper deck, the rest of the crew."

"They all have alibis, too."

"Besides, without an automatic detonation device, it would be impossible..."

"I understand what you mean." Vermouth let her long hair down: "The murderer did use an automatic detonator."

Ebina swallowed his saliva heavily, feeling very uneasy.

Officer Jiaoqi turned his head and looked to the side: "Is that in the box?"

“No.” Vermouth looked at the ashtray: “The reason is very simple, it’s actually using cigarettes.”

"Cigarettes!?" Everyone was shocked.

"He first placed the gasoline can inside the box, then placed the lit cigarette on the opening on the side of the box and tied a thin string to hold it in place."

"After ten minutes, the wire will burn out and the cigarette butt will fall into the box automatically. Then the flame will start automatically."

Jiao Qi continued to question: "But how do you explain the four shots at the stern and the two shots at the bow, which sounded like gunshots?"

Vermouth shook her head and pursed her red lips: "That was also caused by cigarettes. According to my inference, the murderer used firecrackers!"

"Firecrackers?" Hattori suddenly realized: "That's right! Why didn't I think of that! Lu Xin! You have a very wild imagination!"

"Shh." She placed her slender fingers on his philtrum: "Be quiet."

"Everything was deduced based on the traces left at the scene. It's not like you guys who solved the case purely based on your feelings."

"Especially you, an old man like you." Vermouth looked at Maori coldly: "Your reasoning is fragmented and you are blindly confident."

"Without that kid Conan, you're nothing."

"You...you!" Maori suppressed his anger.

"I don't need praise from any of you."

"Your thousands of words are not as good as one sentence."

Then she continued: "The murderer glued the firecrackers to the cigarettes, and then used tape to gently stick the cigarettes to the railings."

"And the firecrackers he used were improved ones."

"There was almost no deviation between the explosion and the gunfire."

"Once the firecrackers explode, all the evidence will fall into the sea and disappear without a trace."

"The burn marks and peeling paint on the railings are the best evidence. Besides, there was an explosion on the upper deck."

"The flag caught fire because the perpetrators soaked it in gasoline."

"The same effect was created by gluing firecrackers onto the flag."

"So just use cigarettes as an aid."

"Anyone could have committed this murder!"

Ebina's face twitched and he couldn't breathe due to the huge pressure.

Jiao Qi clenched his fists and asked anxiously: "Then tell me! Who is the murderer? Stop keeping us in suspense!"

Ebina stammered, "It's...it's too late."

"boom!!!"

There was a loud bang from behind, and this explosion was bigger than ever before!

It instantly illuminated the dark and deserted sea and night sky.

A huge wave was created, hitting the cruise ship.

In the control room, the crew member said anxiously: "Report! There was an explosion!"

"Repeat! An unexpected explosion occurred in the rear!"

The captain made an immediate decision: "Stop the engine! Investigate the damage immediately!"

"Yes!!"

The weather was not good and heavy rain fell, dripping on the deck.

The crew member left the control room, held onto the railing, looked down and asked, "Is there any damage down there?"

"No." The crew member below shook his head.

Vermouth leaned back to avoid the baptism of raindrops.

"You don't have to worry. The bomb exploded 100 meters to the rear and is not a threat."

Jiao Qi frowned slightly: "You mean 100 meters behind?"

Xiao Pang asked worriedly: "Was that a real bomb just now?"

"To be cautious, I pulled the rubber boat with a rope in advance and tied the rope to the railing at the stern."

"And let the rubber boat follow behind the boat."

“Mr. Ebina.” Vermouth raised her forehead slightly: “Your suitcase with the time bomb is right up there.”

Ebina knelt on the ground and raised his head slowly: "Suitcase..."

"You are...how on earth did you know that?"

"With my eyes."

"The bed in your room is so neat and tidy, there's not even a wrinkle in it."

"There's no sign that the suitcase has been opened, and you keep paying attention to the time, so I know what's going on."

"That bomb is probably you, in order to eliminate all the criminals who committed that robbery twenty years ago."

"I think you prepared for this a long time ago."

"It's to take revenge on those murderers who killed you and your colleagues back then! Right?"

Seeing that his carefully planned plot had been exposed, Ebina clenched his fists in anger: "Damn it... Just one step away! Just one step away!"

"Colleague?" the woman asked.

"I noticed it out of the corner of my eye as he was counting the money."

"That kind of calculation method is different from that of ordinary people. Only bank clerks can do that," he muttered to himself at one point.

"The name of the female flight attendant who was killed in the robbery."

Vermouth looked at Officer Sameki on the side and said calmly, "That's Sameki Mihai's name."

Officer Jiao Qi was stunned for a moment: "Is it true... false...?"

Tears glistened in Ebina's eyes. He bit his upper lip and trembled as he said, "We...we are more than just colleagues."

"She...she is still..."

"I am the most important person in the world!"

Jiao Qi finally recalled: "Could it be...you are the man who cried loudly at my daughter's funeral!"
