I'm in Detective Conan, but it's a chaotic battlefield.

Everyone sat silently in their chairs with serious expressions. Even Sonoko Suzuki, who had been bitten by a snake, forced herself to sit in the restaurant.

Of course, Shiho Miyano and Takeshi Hatamoto are not among them.

Hatamoto Natsue's fiancé, Takeshi, had previously entered the deceased's room and had an argument with her. In addition, he was the son of the chairman of a rival company whom the deceased had murdered ten years ago.

Therefore, they are highly suspicious.

However, since no murder weapon or evidence could be found, they temporarily locked Takeshi Hatamoto in the warehouse and waited until they reached the shore before asking the Metropolitan Police Department to investigate.

As for Shiho Miyano...

She disappeared.

We searched the entire cabin but couldn't find it. Due to the heavy rain, communication equipment was temporarily out of service, so everyone's phones were temporarily unusable.

As for the deck of the luxury cruise ship, the environment also became extremely harsh due to the heavy rain.

If Shiho Miyano had actually stayed on the deck, she would probably have been washed into the sea long ago.

When Chen Nuo first learned of this news, he couldn't hide his secret joy.

Did that wicked woman accidentally fall into the sea while she was out enjoying the breeze?

It's raining so hard outside, the chances of survival if you fall in are almost zero.

The thought of being able to get rid of her surveillance made Chen Nuo feel at ease from the bottom of his heart.

This way, we can focus our energy on dealing with Gin.

Ok?

Gin...

Oh, right! Gin seems to know that Sherry went out with him.

When they were on the island, Shiho Miyano even used Chen Nuo's phone to talk to Gin.

Chen Nuo suddenly felt like he had fallen from heaven to hell, and thought to himself that he was in big trouble.

Although Gin didn't ask much at the time, if Sherry really disappeared, he would definitely be the first person the organization suspected.

Given his current special status, even if there is police testimony saying that she accidentally fell into the sea, the organization probably wouldn't believe it.

The organization likely suspects he murdered Shirley.

In other words, although Chen Nuo was very unwilling, finding Shirley alive was now a matter of life and death for him.

Damn it, how did things turn out like this? This woman is really something, always causing trouble for others.

Chen Nuo took a deep breath, bringing his thoughts back to reality. He prepared to suggest that everyone search together.

But as soon as he looked up, he found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes.

Chen Nuo then realized what was happening.

It turns out I was too engrossed in thinking just now, and probably didn't manage my facial expressions well.

Adding to the fact that it was his girlfriend who disappeared.

Therefore, exhibiting this kind of reaction at such a time could easily lead people to misunderstand that Sherry's disappearance is related to him.

"Could it be that you killed my father? You and your girlfriend conspired, and then you killed your partner afterwards and pocketed the reward." Akie Hatamoto's husband, Ryuo, suddenly pointed the finger at Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo discovered that this guy seemed to have a strange hostility towards him.

And they have quite a wild imagination.

For a moment now, I've actually started imagining the plot of a third-rate suspense movie.

Could it be that he saw Mrs. Akie throwing herself into his arms on the deck earlier and is therefore resentful?

But you can't blame me for that; it was your wife who started it.

I was already being very considerate by not taking the card that was tucked into her bosom.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't know Master Hatamoto at all, and besides, aren't we now suspecting Takeshi Hitomoto as the murderer?" Chen Nuo retorted.

He failed to solve the mystery of the case because, besides Lord Hatamoto, there would be another victim.

And the deceased was none other than the man in front of him, Hatamoto Tatsuo, who had been his adversary.

Tatsuo Hatamoto: "We're not sure if the culprit is Takeshi, and it's not uncommon for someone to pretend to be a passerby and approach Dad with malicious intent. Maybe you're someone sent by the rival group."

Besides, I remember you disappeared for a while before the dinner started, didn't you?

boom!

Sonoko Suzuki slammed her hand on the table, splashing tea from her cup. "Hey, what do you mean? How could my friend do something like that?"

Sonoko is still a very loyal person.

Chen Nuocai met her once, and just because he was Xiaolan's friend, Yuanzi automatically included him in her circle and took the initiative to stand up for him.

He glanced at the garden with gratitude.

But then I found her rubbing her arm in pain, apparently because she had accidentally hurt the bandaged hand when she slammed her hand on the table.

Hmm... her personality seems a bit too bold.

And he doesn't seem to be very smart.

Although his looks are comparable to Sulli's when the headband is off, I feel he's more suited to being a buddy.

Ryunan looked at Suzuki Sonoko, who was slamming her hand on the table, and dared not say a word.

He was just a son-in-law who had married into the family, so he didn't dare to argue directly with the young lady of the Suzuki Group.

However, he still looked at Chen Nuo with a suspicious expression.

At this moment, Xiao Lan stepped forward and said, "Just now, Chen Nuo and I were on the deck enjoying the breeze."

Chen Nuo thought the matter was over, but he didn't expect that Tatsuo Hatamoto would still be chasing after him like a dog.

Although Ryuko didn't dare to argue directly with Suzuki Sonoko, this was, after all, a family matter of the Hatamoto family, so he didn't have any reservations about making sarcastic remarks about Ran, a girl with no background.

"Who knows if you guys teamed up? Maybe they were caught having an affair, then they killed the victim, dumped the body at sea, pocketed the reward, and ran away. It's not impossible," Long Nan said.

Sonoko Suzuki was about to get angry when she heard this.

But Chen Nuo spoke first: "Mr. Long Nan, I actually ran into Miss Qiu Jiang during that time, and we even chatted for a while, right, Miss Qiu Jiang?"

Chen Nuo looked at Hatamoto Akie.

Akie Hatamoto looked troubled.

Just as Chen Nuo had guessed, those words seemed to have struck a nerve with Long Nan.

His face turned a deep purplish-red.

At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Akie Hatamoto.

Although Akie Hatamoto was reluctant, she was afraid that Chen Nuo would reveal that she was keeping a lover, so she had no choice but to speak up and testify for Chen Nuo: "Yes...yes, I went outside to smoke and happened to run into Mr. Chen, so we chatted for a while."

With her testifying, everyone put this already unlikely guess to the back of their minds.

Chen Nuo glanced at Long Nan's face and noticed that it was even darker than before.

He also noticed that Xiaolan secretly gave him a thumbs-up, as if she also approved of Chen Nuo's way of dealing with things.

However, regardless of the circumstances, there are indeed suspicious points surrounding Shiho Miyano's disappearance.

Even if the Hatamoto family doesn't care, Chen Nuo can't help but care.

So he took the initiative to search for it.

The Hatamoto family did not object to this; they also felt that perhaps the missing Shiho Miyano had seen something.

However, the rain outside was so heavy that it was dangerous for anyone to even stand on the deck, let alone search for someone.

Furthermore, because there was only one servant on the ship, the old steward, and the rest were all direct blood relatives of the Hatamoto family.

So they only agreed to search inside the cabin.

Having no other choice, Chen Nuo borrowed a raincoat, grabbed a flashlight, and went to the deck alone to search for the missing Shirley.

.

The moment Chen Nuo pushed open the door and stepped onto the deck, he immediately felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

He felt that with such heavy rain, and Shiho Miyano not having Ran's superhuman strength, she would probably have been swept into the sea long ago if she were outside.

Even if the hope is slim, we still have to try to find it.

If he couldn't bring her back alive, he would have to consider how to face the wrath of the Black Organization.

Chen Nuo pulled down the brim of her raincoat, grabbed onto anything she could on the deck, and squinted as she slowly moved forward.

The sea at night is actually quite terrifying.

Because there is no light, the seawater is pure black, and that invisible, intense sense of oppression will instinctively make people feel fear.

Add to that the raging storm, with icy rain pouring down on your face and even forcefully filling your mouth and nose when you breathe, giving you the feeling of falling into dark seawater and drowning.

Chen Nuo quickly shifted his gaze from the boundless black sea to the emergency lights on the ship, the power of technology giving him a great sense of security.

Damn it, this woman is such a pain. I have to come out to find her in this weather. If she were my real girlfriend, that would be one thing, but she's a fake...

Chen Nuo muttered to himself as he began his search.

The luxury cruise ship was actually quite large, and the storm made movement difficult, so Chen Nuo's search was not very efficient.

As the search continued, his hope gradually faded.

He had even started planning whether he could save his life by defecting to an organization like the FBI if the Black Organization really targeted him.

But just then...

Chen Nuo saw someone struggling to move forward in the storm from about 5 meters away.

The man was wearing a black raincoat, with a large brim covering his face, but you could vaguely see that he was carrying a sharp fire axe.

Since the second murder in the original story happened on the deck, Chen Nuo's first thought was that Ichiro Hatamoto had acted first.

But isn't this environment a bit off?

In such a harsh environment, there's no way any witnesses could come forward. What was his purpose in doing this?

Chen Nuo quietly walked towards the other person, but because of the torrential rain, the other person did not hear the sound behind him.
