Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 171 I'll Indignate You Again

Kusaka Hironari looked at Makino with a puzzled look on his face, his thoughts in confusion.

Judging from what Officer Makino just said and the evidence he pointed out, the other party obviously already knew what he had done.

But...my crime is attempted murder?
How can this be? !
As long as he can be discovered in time, the little ghost he imprisoned in the spirit room may still be alive.

But both Yashiro Entaro and his daughter Yashiro Takie were killed by his own hands!
How could the crime he was charged with be just attempted murder?
Thinking of this, Kusaka Hironari looked at Makino with suspicion, and his voice was full of questioning: "Officer Makino, you don't mean to say that the Yashiro president who was pushed off the boat by me and the Yashiro Takae who was stabbed by me with a knife are still alive?!"

Makino shook his head slowly and said, "No, it's just that you weren't the one who actually did the killing. Just like you wanted to avenge your father, there was someone else on this ship who was related to the shipwreck fifteen years ago. After that person learned of your revenge plan, he used you in reverse."

"What?!" Kusaka Hironari's eyes widened instantly.

From Officer Makino's words, we can tell that the police obviously already knew his criminal motives and purposes.

But besides me, there was actually someone in a similar situation to me, and that guy even took advantage of me? !
Could it be that the reason for my failed murder attempt...

On the other side, seeing that Kusaka Hironari's facial expression gradually became a little "hysterical", Makino could roughly guess his mood at the moment.

The psychological processes of most criminals motivated by revenge are very similar.

When these criminals are first arrested, they care more about whether they have successfully taken revenge than thinking about their future.

As long as they succeed in revenge, they will feel a sense of satisfaction and pleasure from the bottom of their hearts.

Although this "satisfaction and pleasure" will evolve into "regret and emptiness" with the passage of time and the gradual calming of emotions, before that moment comes, the minds of these prisoners have only one thought - "revenge."

These prisoners can generally be divided into two categories.

One type of people only cares about the outcome; as long as the target of revenge dies, they are satisfied.

Another type of people care more about the process. Even if the object of revenge must die, it must die in their own hands!
It is obvious that Kusaka Hironari is the type of person who cares about both the process and the results.

Seeing that Kusaka Hironari's emotions were about to get out of control, Makino simply waved his hand quickly towards his neck, using physical means to put him into a state of silence.

Takagi and Shiratori, who were standing by, saw this scene, blinked quickly, and then turned their heads to look elsewhere.

Seeing this, Makino glanced at the two of them, smiled and shook his head: "Okay, hand him over to the others quickly, we still have someone to catch."

"Yes!"

……

In the infirmary.

While Conan was reviewing how he was knocked unconscious, he was thinking about the criminal's purpose and identity.

Although he didn't know the details, he had a general understanding of the current situation from the few words that Kogoro Mori said.

Just as Officer Makino had guessed before, the eighth president and his daughter had been murdered, at the dock and in their room respectively.

When I first arrived at the dock, I didn't see anyone else and didn't notice anything strange.

In other words, the guy who knocked himself out and locked himself up was the one who knocked him out before returning to the dock and killing the Eighth Generation Chairman.

The reason why he knocked himself out and locked himself in the soul-resting room was to prevent himself from affecting his murder plan.

In fact, he did not see the criminal's face, and the criminal's murder plan seemed to be implemented smoothly.

But if you think about it carefully, the fact that the prisoner locked himself in the soul-resting room is actually a clue.

The time between when he was knocked unconscious by the criminal and when the criminal killed the eighth president did not seem to be very long.

If the prisoner had not known the structure of the ship long ago, it would have been impossible for him to lock himself in the soul rest room in such a short time.

After all, most passengers probably didn’t even know there was a “rest room” on the ship, let alone finding the rest room and locking themselves in it in such a short time.

Therefore, there is a high possibility that the criminal is a crew member or someone related to the ship.

And according to Uncle Maori, he also met the criminal wearing a blue windbreaker on the 6th floor of the cabin.

Judging from the time, it was not long ago that he was attacked by the criminal.

In this case, the criminal must also know the schedule of the eighth-generation president and his daughter, otherwise he would not be able to complete his murder plan in such a short time.

Thinking of this, a figure suddenly appeared in Conan's mind.

Last night, the screenwriter named Kusaka Hironari left the restaurant first, apparently on the grounds of seasickness.

If he was the criminal, then the reason why he made an excuse to leave the restaurant was probably to eavesdrop on the schedule of the eighth-generation president and his daughter!

After putting the plate aside, Conan immediately turned his head to look at Kogoro Mouri who was sitting in a chair reading a newspaper not far away, and a hint of apology flashed in his eyes.

It was rare for the uncle to be so "gentle" to me, and I felt a little guilty for stabbing him at this time.

But in order to tell Officer Makino about this, and to get more clues...

Uncle, I'm sorry to inconvenience you for a while!

The next moment, Conan raised his arm and aimed his watch at Kogoro Mouri's neck.

——"Ah! Hmm..."

After a whimper, Kogoro Mouri closed his eyes and his body completely collapsed in the chair.

Seeing this, Conan jumped off the bed and ran out of the infirmary at full speed.

……

At the same time, in Akiyoshi Miwako's room.

Akiyoshi Miwako looked at Makino and the others in front of her with a natural expression, and it was obvious that she had anticipated "such a scene" a long time ago.

After sorting out her thoughts, Akiyoshi Miwako looked at Inspector Megure and Takagi and the others behind Makino and asked, "Mr. Makino, who are these people behind you?"

Hearing this, Inspector Megure and the other two took out their police ID cards from their jacket pockets and showed them to Akiyoshi Miwako. Akiyoshi Miwako asked, "Detective? Did someone murder happen on the boat?"

Makino chuckled and said, "You are right. A murder did happen. The victims are the Eighth Generation Chairman and his daughter."

"What? You said something happened to the chairman and the president?!" Akiyoshi Miwako said in surprise.

Seeing how naturally Akiyoshi Miwako behaved, even Inspector Megure and the others behind Makino were a little surprised.

If it weren't for the fact that several people had full confidence in Makino, they would even have the illusion that Akiyoshi Miwako was not the murderer.

The next second, Makino continued, "In addition to the eight-generation president and his daughter, didn't your boss, eight-generation Hideto, also pass away not long ago? It seems that your plan is going very smoothly."

"My plan? Officer Makino, do you think I'm the murderer?" Akiyoshi Miwako frowned.

Makino did not answer her question directly: "An excellent police officer has found a clue from the wreckage of the car driven by Yashiro Hideto. There is a trace similar to a kite string on the buckle of the car seat belt.

I heard that Yasiro Hideto drove off a cliff. If someone had built a mechanism in his car using kite strings and flash bombs and had him trigger it while wearing his seat belt, even if he didn't have a heart attack, he would have lost control of the car due to coma, causing the car to rush down the slope, leading to an 'accidental death'."

Hearing this, Akiyoshi Miwako's eyes flashed with nervousness, but she still controlled her expression and said, "Officer Makino, you don't want to say that I was responsible for the death of Mr. Yingren?"

Makino looked at Akiyoshi Miwako calmly and nodded, "Ms. Akiyoshi... No, should I call you Miss Okita?"

Akiyoshi Miwako: “!!!”

After hearing the last name "Okita", Akiyoshi Miwako immediately realized that Makino and others in front of her already knew her true identity and her motive for murder.

Originally, she wanted to avoid the suspicion of Kogoro Mori and Makino by creating a "fake criminal".

I didn't expect that Officer Makino would find out about me.

I must not be arrested by the police before the final target of revenge is dealt with!

Thinking of this, Akiyoshi Miwako quickly reached into her trouser pocket, took out a black controller, put her thumb on the red button on it, and shouted: "Everyone back off!!!"

Seeing this, Officers Shiratori and Takagi immediately widened their eyes and looked nervously at the controller in Akiyoshi Miwako's hand.

If I'm not mistaken, the controller in Akiyoshi Miwako's hand seems to be very similar to the bomb controller that Counselor Makino found from Kusaka Hironari before!
Since Inspector Megure had known about the bomb for a long time, there was not much emotional fluctuation in his eyes.

Makino nodded silently, confirming his previous guess.

He had long guessed that in order to ensure that the revenge plan was foolproof, Akiyoshi Miwako would definitely not put everything on Kusaka Hironari, let alone the key "bomb".

She must have her own "bomb controller" in her hands.

After noticing the expressions of Makino and the others, Akiyoshi Miwako said, "I didn't expect that Officer Makino would also take this ship. It seems that my luck is really bad..."

At this point, the expression on Akiyoshi Miwako's face also became a little ferocious:

"As the designer of this ship, I know its structure very well! I have already placed a large number of bombs on this ship. As long as I press this button, the ship will sink quickly and everyone on board will not have time to escape! If you don't want me to press this button, you must obey my instructions now!"

After saying this, Akiyoshi Miwako paid attention to the actions of Makino and the others while glancing at her suitcase out of the corner of her eye.

In the suitcase, there was a "spear gun" that she had prepared in advance.

At this point, she could only find a way to "cajole" Makino and the others, escape from them, get the spear gun, and then get rid of her last enemy!

The next second, under Akiyoshi Miwako's nervous gaze, Makino not only did not retreat, but slowly walked towards her.

Before Akiyoshi Miwako could continue, Makino's voice came again: "Ms. Akiyoshi, there is no need to bluff anymore. You didn't intend to kill anyone else. From the beginning, your target was only the Eighth Generation Chairman and Captain Hai Tengdu, right?

Whether it was the number and location of the bombs, the amount of seawater that flowed into the ship after the bombs exploded, or the time required for the guests on board to take refuge, everything was just right... I guess you had already made countless precise calculations in advance.

Besides, I have already disposed of those bombs in advance, so even if you press the button in your hand, none of the bombs will explode."

Akiyoshi Miwako: “!!!”

Looking at Makino who was slowly approaching her, Akiyoshi Miwako's eyes were full of shock.

Judging from what they said just now, the other party had obviously discovered that there was a bomb on the ship a long time ago and had even dismantled it!
Under Akiyoshi Miwako's shocked gaze, Makino continued, "You were looking at your suitcase just now. If I'm not mistaken, there should be some weapons in the suitcase, right? Are you planning to use the bomb to drive us away, and then use the weapons in the suitcase to kill Captain Hai Teng?"

Akiyoshi Miwako: “…”

After hearing this, Akiyoshi Miwako stared at Makino in front of her with a dull expression for a few seconds, then closed her eyes and smiled helplessly: "It's amazing, you are worthy of being the wisdom star of the Metropolitan Police Department, you can see through all my thoughts..."

After saying this, Akiyoshi Miwako slowly placed the bomb controller in her hand on the table beside her, and then leaned weakly against the wall behind her.

Officer Shiratori immediately stepped forward and carefully picked up the bomb controller.

Officer Takagi walked to the suitcase and checked Miwako Akiyoshi's suitcase.

Not long after, Officer Takagi found a spear gun in Miwako Akiyoshi's suitcase.

Akiyoshi Miwako didn't pay attention to the actions of the crowd, but slowly lowered her head and stated her motive for murder.

Half a year ago, Kusaka Hironari came to interview her on the pretext of writing a TV series script.

However, Kusaka Hironari's behavior was very suspicious, and the questions he asked were all related to the past experiences and private lives of the eighth generation president and his daughter.

While Hironari Kusaka went to the toilet, Akiyoshi Miwako secretly looked at his laptop. Unexpectedly, the title of one of the documents was "The truth behind the first Yashiro Maru sinking accident."

Akiyoshi Miwako's father was Okita, the captain of the first Yashiro Maru.

Therefore, although Akiyoshi Miwako did not believe this, she went to ask her teacher Yasiro Hideto the next day.

Under the influence of strong liquor, the eight generations of British people told everything that happened that year.

The shipwreck fifteen years ago was not an accident, but an accident deliberately planned by the eighth generation president and his daughter, the eighth generation Yingren, and the then deputy captain of Hai Tengdu.

The purpose of the Yashiro family is to defraud a large amount of insurance money, while the deputy captain of Hai Tengdu is to get promoted...

After explaining her motives, Akiyoshi Miwako turned to look at Makino and said with a wry smile: "Officer Makino, my biggest mistake was not anticipating your arrival. Perhaps this is God's will..."
