Conan Rick's Investigator

Because if Ma Cheng was asked to take off the towel, the scene might be even weirder...

"Oh……"

Qin Zhibo responded belatedly, walked around Ma Chengshi and entered the bathroom.

……

In the steamy bathroom, various toiletries are neatly arranged, as well as a small amount of cosmetics.

However, judging from the water stains, Ma Chengshi had just used not only the usual toiletries, but also a razor and shaving foam.

After all, to maintain one's identity as a woman, cleaning up unnecessary hair on the body should be a daily task.

In addition, Qin Zhibo also found a bamboo bath basket at his feet.

Out of curiosity, Qin Zhibo lifted the lid of the bath basket and saw what was inside.

The padding underneath was the black stand-up collar dress that Asami wore at the community center today, and the more eye-catching thing on top was women's underwear and padding.

amount……

Qin Zhibo quickly put the lid back in place and began to concentrate on his bath time.

However, when he was halfway through taking a shower, there was a sudden knock on the bathroom door, and Ma Chengshi's voice came from outside the door.

"Mr. Qin, would you like me to rub your back?"

"It would be quite inconvenient if I were alone..."

Ok?

Although Qin Zhibo knew that Ma Chengshi had good intentions, after all, humans evolved from primates such as gorillas and monkeys.

One of the ways these animals express friendship is by removing lice from each other's bodies.

This is similar to scrubbing the back of humans, both of which are used to remove dirt from the back and body.

On the other hand, being able to trust others with your back is also a symbol of partnership that can fight side by side.

But Ma Sheng came to rub his back...

At this moment, Qin Zhibo's brain was a little confused, and various famous wrestling scenes emerged in his mind.

"No, I'm used to taking a bath by myself."

"Oh, oh... excuse me for that."

There was a hint of loss on Masamichi's face.

……

Coming out of the bathroom, Qin Zhibo put on the only bathrobe in the house that Ma Chengshi had prepared for him.

However, just when Ma Chengshi was about to ask who would sleep on the sofa and who would sleep on the bed, Qin Zhibo interrupted him.

"The evidence we have now is insufficient to definitively prove that the three people in the village were involved in drug trafficking. As long as they can just push a subordinate to take the blame, it will be difficult for the three of them to be punished."

"For example, Secretary Hirata..."

"So I decided to further collect evidence of drug trafficking crimes against Kawashima Hideo, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, and Nishimoto Ken."

"Even if this doesn't completely avenge you, it can at least punish their crimes to a certain extent."

"But to carry out this plan, I need your help."

Hearing the topic of revenge, Masashi, who had not forgiven his enemy, nodded seriously.

……

Moon Shadow Island, the next day.

The night passed in silence, without any screams or "Xiaolan! Call the police!"

Everything on the island was very peaceful.

In the morning, the Maori family got up, had breakfast at the hotel, and then went to the community center.

According to Conan's childlike reminder last night, the main task today is to post notices throughout the island and look for possible witnesses who were on the beach yesterday.

In addition, Kogoro Mori himself further expanded the scope of his suspicion.

On the one hand, the person who attacked Hideo Kawashima might be someone related to Keiji Aso, who died twelve years ago.

On the other hand, it is also possible that someone took advantage of the situation to attack Kawashima Hideo.

Because according to the hotel owner, Hideo Kawashima is a capitalist on the island and has a lot of money. He has now used money to buy the votes of many islanders.

If nothing unexpected happens, he is likely to be elected as the village chief this time.

Under this election situation, the current village chief, Bald Uncle, and the fishermen's representatives both have motivations.

And in this case, the reason why Kawashima Hideo was not killed was also found.

After all, it is just an election for village chief, not a permanent one. There is really no need to kill someone and alert the police, but it is still necessary to scare Hideo Kawashima away from the election.

Conan had no reason to refute Kogoro Mouri's point of view, but he still didn't think that the letter of commission was completely groundless.

50 is not a small amount of money for the islanders here. No one on the island can afford to pay such a large sum of money to hire a detective at one time, except the three candidates for village chief.

And there is...

At this time, at the fork in the road leading to the community center, the Maori family saw Qin Zhibo and Asai Narimi walking side by side.

The two groups met again at the fork in the road where they had parted yesterday, and couldn't help but say hello.

Oh ha young × n……

After saying hello, Kogoro Mouri began to exercise the fourth instinct of human beings - gossip.

"How did you two rest last night?"

"As the saying goes, a night of love is worth a thousand gold...Ah!"

Just as Kogoro Mouri was about to talk too much, Ran Mouri next to him stepped on his foot and let out a strange cry.

Although he didn't finish his words, Asai Narumi still lowered his head with a red face.

This surprised Qin Zhibo who was standing next to him.

This face really turns red just by saying so?

With such excellent blushing skills, who would believe that he is a man?

Before anyone on either side could continue speaking, Asai Narimi said quickly, "I'm going to work now. Goodbye everyone."

After saying that, she bowed deeply and ran away in small steps.

Asai Chengmi left, and the innocent Qin Zhibo explained: "There is really nothing going on between her and me."

Maybe because Ran Mouri has spent a long time with Sonoko, she has the same naughty expression as Sonoko.

"I understand, I understand..."

Qin Zhibo was helpless: Well, the misunderstanding has deepened...

Conan opened his eyes wide: Xiaolan actually knows so much?

……

The group returned to the community center and continued the search work that had been planned early in the morning.

Due to the lack of authority of the Tokyo police, those who attended the memorial service at the community center yesterday were all busy with their own things today, and basically no one took the initiative to cooperate with the investigation.

There was no other choice but to follow the old policeman's lead and visit every household with yesterday's registration list.

Although it is tiring, this is the real case investigation.

Judging from the overall situation, only a few criminals stay at the scene after committing a crime and wait for the police to investigate them.

There are also only a few criminals who stay at the scene and carefully plan various impossible crimes.

Because no crime is impossible, otherwise it would not happen.

Crime is not a show of skill. Once you fail, there is no chance to try again.

Then, after running for almost the entire day, Maori Kogoro was so tired that he stuck out his tongue countless times, and the result was -

Nothing came of it.

Chapter 99 It’s noon!

"Please don't let me catch this criminal. If I catch him, I will definitely..."

As the sun set, Kogoro Mouri leaned against a big tree by the roadside and cursed.

Qin Zhibo secretly despised Maori Kogoro.

Is this a body of steel?

I guess his character card only has high durability, but not high stamina.

Being a man is not lasting, no wonder the wife ran away...

Mao Lilan apologized to Qin Zhibo somewhat embarrassedly.

"Sorry to waste your time today and wander around the island with us."

"It doesn't matter. Traveling is just wandering around anyway, so I'll just treat today as a trip."

Qin Zhibo certainly didn't care, because one of his purposes today was to see if Maori and his group could find a villager who knew that Keiji Aso had a son.

However, it does not.

In fact, even Qin Zhibo didn't know that the answer to this question was both far away and right in front of him, and the old policeman was the key to breaking the deadlock.

However, even if this old policeman with a poor memory can now provide the clue that Keiji Aso has a son named "Narishi", it is not enough to prove anything.

It's not illegal to be a transvestite.

And all of this will most likely end tonight.

……

As night fell, the group, having gained nothing today, parted ways at a fork in the road.

The Maori family still stayed in the hotel, and Qin Zhibo went to stay at Asai Narimi's house.

However, when he arrived at Asai Narimi's house, Qin Zhibo did not enter, but slipped into the bushes nearby.

Qin Zhibo learned about Nishimoto Ken's home address during the day's visit, and he soon returned to Nishimoto Ken's home again.

Ken Nishimoto lives alone in a slightly remote area of the village, and there are no lights on in his house late at night.

After climbing over the low courtyard wall, Qin Zhibo sneaked to the window of Xi Benjian's house, turned on the night vision goggles, and observed the situation inside.

Nishimoto Ken was sleeping in his bedroom, wrapped in a blanket, safe and sound...

According to the old policeman, Ken Nishimoto was very rich three years ago. He squandered money everywhere and often brought different women to the island to spend the night.

However, since the death of the previous village chief, his spirit seemed to have plummeted, and he spent most of his time at home in a daze.

But the strange thing is that he didn't work for three consecutive years and still had no worries about food and clothing.

Qin Zhibo can understand this.

This drug trafficking group should also have a dependent relationship. For example, Ken Nishimoto should rely on the henchmen or younger brothers of the former village chief.

After the death of the previous village chief, Ken Nishimoto lost his backer. Coupled with his superstition that Keiji Aso's ghost was haunting him, he naturally became mentally unstable.

However, even if Ken Nishimoto doesn't work, in order to prevent him from leaking secrets and allow him to stay at home and be a stay-at-home, other people who are still dealing drugs will probably continue to support him.

So he should still be a part of the drug trafficking gang.

This will be easier to handle.

Relying on his memory of visiting here during the day, Qin Zhibo sneaked into Nishimoto Ken's home.

Ken Nishimoto's house is a Japanese-style house and is not locked at night, so it is easy to sneak in.

First, he found the mobile phone placed casually among the beer bottles on the table in the living room. Qin Zhibo picked up the phone with the medical rubber gloves he asked from Ma Chengshi.

First find the SMS function in your phone.

Then enter the following.
