Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 157
Before Mori Kogoro could react, Xiaolan, who felt that what Ishino said was very reasonable, went directly to her father and dragged him towards the reception room.

Although she doesn't think her father would do such a thing as stealing, Xiaolan agrees with Ishino based on the principle of fairness.

Faced with his daughter's tough attitude, Mori Kogoro could only choose to accept the reality, turned around and said to Samukawa Ryu who was standing there dumbfounded: "Sorry, Mr. Samukawa, I can't help you with this matter. It was destroyed, I suggest you go to the reception room with us, and we can wait for the police to come and talk about the rest."

Faced with the fact that things were obviously beyond his expectations, Ryu Hanchuan couldn't find a reasonable reason to refute Mori Kogoro and Ishino for a while, so he could only choose to accept the plan of calling the police, and went to the reception room with everyone to wait for the police to arrive.

Since the cruise ship has entered the waters of Tokyo at this moment, the case was handed over to Police Officer Megure and their first search section.

When he just received the police call from Mori Kogoro, Police Officer Megure, who was about to go home from get off work, habitually thought that there was another murder, but when he heard that there was a theft, he felt a little uncomfortable for a while. .

At this time, Shiratori Ren Saburo, who was bored because of a vacation alone, just returned to the police station. Officer Megure did not choose to go there in person, but handed over the task of going to the cruise ship to deal with the incident to Shiratori who volunteered, and he followed the original plan. I plan to go home from work to accompany my wife.

Half an hour later, a police helicopter landed steadily on the helicopter deck of Suzuki's cruise ship. Shiratori got off the plane with Takagi and two forensic officers, and was led by the cruise staff to the meeting where everyone was. guest room.

"So, Mr. Hanchuan, you put the necklace under the pillow on the bed before you left the room and headed to the dining room. Half an hour later, when you returned to the room, you found that the necklace was missing. Is that right?" After listening to Hanchuanlong's narration , Shiratori recorded what happened in the notebook and confirmed it aloud.

"That's right, police department." Han Chuanlong nodded in confirmation.

"Since this is the case, let's start the investigation from your room." After speaking, Shiratori led the team to Hanchuanlong's room.

It didn't take long for the forensic personnel to find a ballpoint pen with the words "M Nishino" printed on it under Long Chuanchuan's bed.

After confirming that there were no more discoveries, Shiratori returned to the reception room, took the ballpoint pen and confirmed to Masato Nishino: "Mr. Nishino, this pen belongs to you, right?"

"Yes, but why are you in Mr. Hanchuan's room?" Nishino quickly touched the pocket where he kept his pens, and found that the pens he had put there before were indeed missing, so he clicked to claim them.

"Hmph, do you still need to ask? You must have accidentally dropped my ring at the scene of the crime!" Han Chuanlong pointed at Masato Nishino and directly asserted in a slightly excited tone.

"You spitting blood! I have never been to your room, how could I steal your things?" Facing Han Chuanlong's unreasonable accusation, Nishino directly denied it.

At this time, Shiratori interrupted the quarrel between the two, and continued to ask Masato Nishino: "Then what are you doing from 07:30 to [-]:[-], Mr. Nishino?"

Hearing Shiratori's question, Nishino ignored the smirking Samukawa Ryu, recalled it seriously and replied: "I should have taken a bath in the bathroom of the room during that time, and then took a nap on the bed for a while."

Shiratori nodded, and then asked the other party: "Since you are sure that you have not been to Mr. Hanchuan's room, you don't mind if we search your room?"

"No problem, please go ahead." Nishino calmly accepted the police's search request, while Han Chuanlong beside him was delighted in his heart.

"Police, we found it!" Half an hour later, in front of the unbelievable Masato Nishino, Officer Takagi found the necklace with the ring between the sheets and the bed board in his room.

"How is this possible?!" Nishino exclaimed, completely unable to understand why this necklace appeared in his room.

"Hmph, I still want to quibble, so I got all the stolen goods, right?" Han Chuanlong, who was the owner, was not surprised when he found the necklace in Nishino's room, but looked at him with a gloating smile and taunted him.

But just when he felt that the trick was successful and secretly pleased, a staff member on the cruise suddenly found Officer Shiratori and said, "Mr. Officer, the surveillance video that needs our cooperation is ready and can be viewed at any time." .”

"Surveillance video?" Shiratori was taken aback when he heard the words, and then saw Ishino standing at the end of the corridor gesture towards him, and immediately understood what was going on, and responded to the staff with a smile, "Oh , I remembered, thank you for your hard work, I will go over and check."

The moment he heard the word "surveillance", Han Chuanlong's head suddenly buzzed, feeling as if his heartbeat had stopped for a moment, he managed to squeeze out a smile and asked Shiratori: "Officer Shiratori, what is this?" What the hell is going on with the surveillance video?"

"It's the monitoring in the corridor, why doesn't Mr. Hanchuan know?" Looking at the other party's appearance of being unable to continue acting, he pretended to be a white bird and asked playfully, "I thought you knew that only the police can apply Calling the surveillance, that's why there has been no request to view the surveillance."

"This... I really didn't know there were surveillance cameras in the corridor. If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered you to make a special trip." At this moment, Han Chuanlong's face was as ugly as if he had eaten a fly. They couldn't hold on anymore.

"No trouble, this is what we should do." Kaito resisted the urge to laugh, but said with an understanding expression on his face, "Actually, because I didn't see the camera at first, I didn't I thought there was no monitoring here, but after asking someone to find out, I found out that for the beauty of the cabin, it was specially designed to blend in with the decoration."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care how wonderful the other party's expression was, and directly asked Takagi to take the two parties back to the reception room, while he followed the staff to the monitoring room to check the video.

After another ten minutes, Kaito returned to the reception room with a smile all over his face, and announced to everyone who had been waiting here for nearly two hours: "This theft case has been solved, thank you for your cooperation, everyone can Free to move."

Compared with the curiosity in most people's hearts, Conan fell into a state of bewilderment, writing countless question marks in his heart: Who am I?Where am I?what am i doingI don't know anything yet, you tell me the case is over?Oh, it's not a homicide case?That's all right...
