Conan Rick's Investigator

"But speaking of sinking, I remember there was an accident a while ago where a cargo ship belonging to the Yashiro Merchant Navy hit an iceberg, right?"

"Yes." Akiyoshi Miwako, who was sitting next to Maori Kogoro, nodded. "That happened in the winter of 15 years ago."

Maori Kogoro continued: "I remember that the cause was the captain's misjudgment, which resulted in the death of a crew member, and the captain also sank with the cargo ship..."

Qin Zhibo on the opposite side noticed that when Maori Kogoro talked about this topic, Kusaka Hironari's head shifted to the side, obviously not interested in this topic.

When the three little ones heard that such a large ship was at risk of sinking, they showed an uneasy look on their faces.

"Is this true?"

"What if this ship sinks too?"

"Swimming, I can only swim seven meters!"

Seeing the three little ones panic, Akiyoshi Miwako, the ship's designer, hurried to comfort them, "Don't worry, everyone. The captain of the Aphrodite is very good, and there are no icebergs in this sea..."

But as soon as she finished her words, a dissenting voice emerged.

"It's hard to say..."

"I just checked my phone. Is this the same person who was the second-in-command of the cargo ship accident 15 years ago?"

Qin Zhibo turned on the screen of his phone and saw a man with a crew cut and wearing a white uniform with his upper body straight.

Everyone came over to take a look, and Kogoro Mouri and Conan were the first to recognize him.

"Isn't this the same person who appeared at the ribbon-cutting ceremony this afternoon?"

"But that person seems to be the captain of this ship..."

"My name seems to be, Hai..."

Maori Kogoro was thinking about it when Kusaka Hiroshige beside him replied, "That man's name is Kaito Wataru."

"Even though the cargo ship suffered a serious accident 15 years ago, he's still able to operate this luxury cruise ship again. How amazing..."

There was something hidden in Kusaka Hironari's words, and it was obvious that he had some complaints about Kaito Watari.

Akiyoshi Miwako's eyes narrowed as she said calmly, "But in the accident 15 years ago, it was thanks to Kaito Wataru's excellent temporary command that most of the people on board were saved."

Kusaka Hirose: "..."

Qin Zhibo looked at the two people who were arguing with each other and felt vaguely something strange.

It would be great if these two people could go to a restaurant to have dinner together, as they could still disagree on such an issue.

But at present, all kinds of fg have been established.

Aphrodite, danger!

"Haha, even if the ship sinks, it doesn't really matter..."

"This ship has a large swimming pool, and the Pacific Ocean waters aren't as cold as the Atlantic Ocean waters where the Titanic sank. If you want to learn how to swim, you can start now."

As soon as Qin Zhibo finished speaking, Conan, who was drinking juice, immediately widened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of juice.

"puff--"

"Conan, are you okay?"

Mao Lilan hurriedly comforted Conan with concern and patted Conan on the back.

"No, I'm fine, Ran-nee..."

Conan picked up the napkin to wipe the liquid from the corner of his mouth and looked at Qin Zhibo with resentment.

This is all because of Qin Zhibo’s shocking remarks.

He originally thought that Qin Zhibo was going to comfort everyone by saying that the ship would absolutely not sink.

The result is that we have already started planning for the ship to sink...

This is too bad of a jinx!

The biggest debuff on the ship - the Death God Elementary School Student condemned the opponent's bad mouth in his heart.

"snort……"

"Even if the ship sank, I think those people would be the first to be rescued."

Kusaka Hironari held his chin with one hand and glanced sideways at the sun-shaped platform in the center of the restaurant.

On the high platform, the former Japanese Prime Minister and his wife were led by the waiter to sit in the secondary seat near the middle.

This was none other than the former Prime Minister of Japan, Prime Minister Niimi, who appeared at the ribbon-cutting ceremony this afternoon.

Although he was resigned as prime minister after serving for less than a year, a prime minister is still a prime minister and is always a guest of honor at civic events.

According to popular rumors, the purpose of this former Japanese Prime Minister's coming to power was to facilitate the transfer of power to the previous Prime Minister, Ooka.

Former Prime Minister Ooka, who is quite powerful in Japanese politics, is very likely to return to politics in the near future and take up the post of prime minister again.

He will then also become the longest-serving prime minister.

But these are just folk rumors, without any actual basis...

In addition to the former prime minister and his wife, an artist group called the Li Sisters also came and sat in the side seats at the very side.

The two sisters were wearing passionate red strapless long dresses, which made Kogoro Mouri drool.

Finally, in the main seat were the Eighth Generation Foundation Chairman, Yashiro Entaro, and the Eighth Generation Merchant Marine President, Yashiro Takae.

Both the father and daughter were wearing kimonos, which were absolutely different from the suits and dresses of the people around them, highlighting their noble status on the ship.

The old man's face was intimidating without him getting angry, while his daughter was a little more approachable.

The two of them sat down in the main seat and began chatting and laughing with the former prime minister and his wife.

The chief designer of the ship mentioned above, Mr. Yasiro Hideto, is Mr. Yasiro Takie's husband.

However, Qin Zhibo looked at Yashiro Takie's happy expression, which did not look like someone whose husband had just died.

All we can say is that the relationship between the wealthy families is as thin as water, and interests come first.

Besides, isn’t it not uncommon for a husband who marries into his wife’s family to want to find another one?

At this time, the waiter also served delicious dishes to Qin Zhibo's table.

"Wow!"

"How exquisite!"

The three little ones exclaimed in admiration.

The restaurant offers a standard banquet menu, all of which are exquisitely presented dishes for display and photo opportunities.

In addition, you can also order various dishes separately, all for free.

When Yuantai heard that everything was free, he immediately ordered three big bowls of eel rice.

However, Chengshi recommends not eating too much at dinner, otherwise there will be food accumulation in the stomach, which will make you feel uncomfortable the next day.

Yuantai patted his belly proudly and laughed in a hoarse duck voice, "Haha! It's okay, there's absolutely nothing wrong with my stomach!"

Just as Cheng Shi was about to continue persuading, Haibara Ai next to him said lightly.

"If I eat too much tonight, I won't be able to eat more eel rice tomorrow..."

"Then you can only watch us while we eat eel rice."

Haibara Ai used a communication method that was more targeted at Genta, and Genta understood it immediately.

Watching others eat, wouldn't that be more painful than killing him?

He quickly reached out to call the waiter and returned the two bowls of eel rice.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi and Huihara Ai smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

……

During dinner, everyone at the table ate and chatted happily.

When the last steak of the main course is served, it is time for dessert.

At this time, Kogoro Mouri had drunk a lot of red wine and was slightly drunk, and began to talk nonsense.

"Eri, you don't even come to such a nice place. You really don't know how to enjoy yourself!"

Kogoro Mouri picked up the wine glass and his face turned as red as a monkey's butt.

Generally speaking, people who blush when drinking tend to be able to drink more.

Kogoro Mori could indeed drink, and he drank almost a whole bottle of high-end red wine by himself.

Qin Zhibo was not used to the taste of high-end red wine, so he just drank one glass.

When Maori Ran saw that Kogoro Maori was beginning to lose consciousness and mentioned his mother, there was a hint of comfort in her eyes.

Although the two are now separated for a long time, they still miss each other deep in their hearts.

But it could also be that Akiyoshi Miwako, who looked like Kisaki Eri, reminded him of Kisaki Eri who did not come on this ship.

At this time, Kusaka Hironari frowned and covered his forehead.

Dr. Agasa next to him asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I feel a little seasick..." Kusaka Hironari put down his hand.

Cheng Shi, a doctor, immediately said, "If you're seasick, I have some medicine in my room. I can get it if you need it."

Before Qin Zhibo could remind him that there must be medicine on board, Kusaka Hiroshige smiled and waved his hand, "No need, I have seasickness medicine here too. I'll just go back to my room and rest for a while."

"Everyone, please stop accompanying me."

Kusaka Hironari wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, then stood up and left.

After everyone finished their dessert and chatted for a while, it was already 930: in the evening.

Kogoro Mouri was drunk, so only Tomohiro Qin and Dr. Agasa were responsible for sending him back to his room.

When it comes to drinking, Qin Zhibo still admires Maori Kogoro very much.

Neither myself nor Professor Agasa often drank with him, but he could get himself drunk on his own.

This kind of person is either a pure drunkard or has something wrong with him.

Qin Zhibo is more inclined to the latter.

After all, he has a stunningly beautiful wife at home, but they have been separated for a long time. Due to his face as a man, he can't bring himself to invite her back, so he can only drown his sorrows in alcohol.

After settling Kogoro Mouri into his room, since it was not yet time to go to bed, the rest of the people did some recreational activities in the common activity room.

Qin Zhibo and Dr. Agasa play billiards to compare their skills.

Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko, Chengji and Conan are playing poker. The rules of the game are similar to those of the old turtle.

Haibara Ai went back to the suite to take a shower first.

The three little ones’ after-dinner entertainment activity is doing their homework. Although they are traveling, they cannot fall behind in their homework. This is what their parents told them before they left.

Conan and Haibara Ai have finished their homework at home, so they don’t have to worry about such trivial matters now.

However, the amount of homework for elementary school students is not much, and soon the three little ones finished all their homework.

"Here we come!"

"How was the game? Who won?"

Conan, Cheng Shi and Sonoko all looked at Mao Li Ran at the same time. The answer was already obvious.

"So far, Ran-san has won four games in a row..."

Cheng Shi also praised: "Xiaolan's card skills are really amazing!"

This made Mao Lilan smile embarrassedly, "No, no, I'm just lucky..."

When Conan heard this, he drooped his eyes and thought to himself: This is the kind of luck that makes it so unsolvable.

At this time, Mitsuhiko, who was watching the game nearby, said, "By the way, Xiaolan-nee, I heard from you that the karate club of Teitan High School went to participate in the Kanto Regional Karate Tournament a few days ago. I think Xiaolan-nee should have gone too, right?"

Mitsuhiko's sister is also an emperor

A student of Dan High School, although he is one grade lower than Xiaolan, he is still clear about the affairs of the club.

"Really? How are Sister Xiaolan's grades?" Ayumi asked curiously after hearing that.

But as soon as these words were spoken, Conan and Sonoko at the card table were shocked.
