Chapter 120:
With just one lottery ticket, she won the first prize: a luxurious two-person package to the Island of the Dead.When Mao Lilan told the news to Mori Kogoro, Conan was stunned.She's also really lucky.
The next few days will be a long holiday.Mao Lilan rolled her eyes with a smile, as long as she talked to someone, Conan should be able to go too.
Mori Kogoro said that this is very troublesome, but in fact he is also actively preparing for departure tomorrow morning.Even more positive than Mao Lilan and Conan.According to him, this opportunity should not be wasted.
Mori Kogoro did not borrow another car.Because of the need to transfer to a dedicated ship halfway.It just so happened that his apprentice, Mr. Amuro, who was downstairs in Poirot, was also going to the island of death.He smiled slightly and let them sit in his car.
"Brother Amuro." Conan pretended to be his child again. "Why didn't you see that young lady?"
Conan refers to Sachiko Domoto.Mao Lilan was reminded by him and also thought of the little girl. Recently, she has been by Mr. Amuro's side.She sees it every time she comes home from school.
Mori Kogoro was dissatisfied with Conan's childish curiosity.
"She came home today." Toru Amuro seemed surprised, he glanced at Conan who was sitting in the back row through the rearview mirror.Then, he smiled casually and said to them, "Does Conan-kun like Sachiko very much?"
Hello!Conan's mouth twitched.He wanted to say something, but he could only keep silent in front of Lan and the uncle.However, Mao Lilan began to think seriously. "Conan really likes her. She is indeed a beauty!"
Mao Lilan has always found that little girl very familiar.It wasn't until she saw her a few times that she suddenly remembered that she looked like her favorite star, Sharon Wynyard.It's just that she is younger and still has some childish feelings.
Fool!Conan silently complained about his childhood sweetheart.He only likes her!From a long time ago...
With that girl away, he could have a private talk with Mr. Jiang Gu.Conan thought so, but he had no chance at all along the way.Until they all arrived at the island of death and the hotel where they were going to stay.
"Zero...brother." When he walked into the hotel, he saw 'Toru Amuro' who had been 'missing' for a while reappeared.Conan finally seized the opportunity, and when Mao Lilan didn't notice, he quietly left to catch up with him.
When it's just the two of them, they don't use much pretense with each other. 'Amuro Toru' didn't want to say anything to him, he wanted to leave.Conan asked him before he left: "Are you avoiding me on purpose? Why?"
"We don't seem to have anything to talk about." 'Toru Amuro' raised the corners of his mouth slightly.He turned around and looked at the little boy not far behind him.Then his smile returned to its usual innocence and harmlessness. "That's all."
"I don't know what happened between you and Mr. Akai." Conan took the initiative to bring up this question.He said: "In order to conceal Mr. Akai's whereabouts, we did lie to you. But that's also... He really wants to meet you now."
"It's too late." Some shadows finally appeared on Amuro's face, "I'm not your puppet. We can meet whenever we want." Conan wanted to say something else.But Toru Amuro had already left.
"I will solve the problem in my own way." He only heard this sentence that he dropped before leaving.
Puppets!Conan lowered his head and thought about his words, but when he raised his head, he happened to see exquisite puppets on the wall over there.He walked up to it and just looked at him like that.These are the characteristics of this island of the dead.
Speaking of puppets... Conan suddenly thought of someone.Will he come here too?
Thinking of this, Conan heard a scream coming from upstairs.Out of detective instinct, he immediately ran over to the sound.He found a bloody head in an open elevator on the third floor.
Mori Kogoro and Amuro Toru also quickly found here.Mao Lilan was responsible for calling the police.
Suddenly there was a big storm at sea.The ship was blocked, and the police helicopter could not fly over.Mao Lilan told Mori Kogoro about the situation, "The police said they will come as soon as possible. But at least wait until the wind subsides."
"It was an accident." Mori Kogoro said without a doubt.Say, "This elevator is malfunctioning."
The elevator has sensors.It won't close if someone is there.But this time it was not only closed, but also went to other floors as usual.This has led to the present situation.It stands to reason...it should be like this.
Conan didn't feel that there was anything wrong this time.They called in the staff of the building.
The body of the deceased was also found.On the tenth floor of this building.There has just been a major renovation not long ago, and it has not yet been officially put into use.Few people usually go there.That's why no one found out until they looked for it.
The order on the third floor is fairly normal, except for one or two people who occasionally pass by to see what happened, it's as if nothing happened here.Apart from the sudden failure of the elevator, the guests here have no other ideas.
The name of this island is the Island of the Dead.There are many extremely dangerous places on the island that have not been developed by humans.Many people who come here are for adventure, and there are not a few people who die here every year.This is normal for them.
If there is any difference between this time and the other deaths every time, the person died in the hotel this time.
When Conan saw the body of the deceased, he finally realized something was wrong.He rested his chin on the corpse and thought.There were some red marks on the victim's shoulders from being pressed hard.It was a bloody murder.
Conan found out the identity of the victim from the registration list of the hotel staff.Yasugi Junmi. 38 years old.He is the chairman of a small company.She came here alone.
There is no monitoring.The surveillance in the elevator was tampered with.The tenth floor has not been installed at all.The truth can only be found out by themselves.
Yasugi Junmi has never been to this island since it was recorded.This is the conclusion Conan came to after searching through the records on this island.With the help of Dr. Ali who was outside, he also found out that Yasugi Junmi had never had any grudges with others.
As a result, the case has become somewhat clueless.Conan asked the guards and monitors.They all said they hadn't found any abnormalities.They noticed that the monitoring position in the elevator had moved.But there was no one else around that time.
"Probably a little loose." The staff explained to him this way, "Because it can still take a part of it, so we are not in a hurry. We plan to wait until the guests are resting at night, and then ask the workers to stop and adjust."
"When was the surveillance camera moved?" Conan asked in a childish voice. "Uncle Maury asked me to ask this."
"It was about half an hour before the body was discovered." A staff member thought for a while and said uncertainly.Then he turned around and asked another staff member.The staff member nodded. "Probably around that time!"
The criminal must have done it.Conan thanked him, then he thought about it and walked out.At this time, Mao Lilan came over.
Conan was just pulled away by his childhood sweetheart.He also just wanted to go back.At this time, 'Toru Amuro' was with Mori Kogoro.As if Kogoro Mori cared about his apprentice's opinion, he asked him his opinion on this incident.
'Amuro Toru' also made speculation about the murder.In the end, he also said: "I'm just my own opinion. Mr. Mori must have more than I thought." Mori Kogoro laughed until his tongue stuck out for a long time.
When they were talking about this time, 'Amuro Toru' found three people standing in the distance and watching this side.They seem to have different opinions.After arguing for a long time, they finally reached an agreement and left.
He seems to have discovered something very interesting. 'Amuro Toru' had some elusive expressions on his face.It's just that it was well concealed by him in his gentle, seemingly sincere smile.
Those three people should not have known each other.This is the information they gave.But the three of them got together tremblingly, and they never thought that one day they would get together.Or because of the same person's invitation.
"Chunmei is dead. Chunmei was killed." After returning to one of the people's rooms, the woman suddenly shouted uncontrollably: "Is it our turn to be the next one? He's still alive! He Just hide on this island and wait to find our revenge."
"Calm down!" The man's voice was not loud, but stern and powerful. "Don't scare yourself. It is absolutely impossible for that person to survive in that situation. Even if he survives, he will seek revenge from us. As long as the three of us don't separate, he can't do anything."
"Yes!" The last man echoed. "Zeff is right. As long as we hold out until the storm dies down, he won't be able to do anything to us again when we leave this damned island."
"But, what will happen to us before this?" The woman finally asked this question quietly.The one who had brought them all together, did they really have a chance to escape?They are not at all sure.
