Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1481 The Shadow of Black Iron

With the conclusion of the pre-war meeting, the various investigation organizations immediately began to deploy.

Tokyo will be the next major battlefield, and most personnel will be deployed around the venues of events related to the World Expo.

The number of events and the number of participants in this World Games are the highest in history, and the number of tourists is also likely to reach a historical peak.

Therefore, the probability that pagan organizations such as the Beast Brotherhood will plan terrorist attacks during the World War II is very high.

Especially the main venue of this World Games, Shibahama Stadium where the opening ceremony of this World Games was held.

In addition, on the opening day of the World Sports Meet on July 7, a ceremony will be held simultaneously for the first operation of the "Vacuum Superconducting Maglev Train", which incorporates the most advanced technology in Japan.

This flight departs from Shin-Nagoya Station at Nagoya International Airport and goes directly to Shibahama Stadium in Tokyo.

The entire journey reaches a speed of 1000km/h and lasts 25 minutes.

The passengers on the train are representatives of the sponsors of this World Games and representatives of various countries of the World Games Association.

Originally, a small number of experience spots would be allocated from Japanese civilians for the train's first run.

However, due to concerns that pagan organizations would place their own people on the train, the plan was temporarily canceled.

……

Metropolitan Police Department parking lot.

Qin Zhibo, Kuroda Heiwei, Akai Wuwu, Akai Mary, and Akai Shuichi are about to board the vehicle heading to the Pacific buoy.

Since the organization has noticed the existence of the Pacific buoy, action here must be urgent.

As the responsible representative of the Japanese side, Kuroda Bei will definitely go.

Akai Tsutomu is the only member of the Justice League who has been on the "ghost ship" and the provider of those photos.

Mary Akai didn't want to be separated from Tsutomu Akai again, so she chose to go with her husband.

However, due to his amnesia, Shuichi Akai has a certain barrier in joining forces with the FBI.

So, adhering to the idea that a family should be together, he went with them.

Qin Zhibo chose to go to the Pacific Buoy for two reasons.

On the one hand, he believed that the only way to completely end the decisive battle with the organization was to find the ship.

On the other hand, he promised Cheng Shi last night that he would bring Haibara Ai back.

Just last night, Qin Zhibo knew that they would be separated the next day, so he chose to confess the matter of Huibara Ai to Chengshi.

Although Cheng Shi knew that Haibara Ai's life experience might be complicated, he was not clear about the details.

But yesterday, Qin Zhibo chose to tell her about Huibara Ai's life experience.

One of the facts is that Haibara Ai's real age is 18 years old. She was once a scientist of a criminal organization, but later escaped from the organization after taking a drug that could make the body smaller.

Also, she has been captured by the organization now...

After learning about this series of events, although Cheng Shi's eyes showed shock, he was much calmer than Qin Zhibo had imagined.

Her only request was to rescue Haibara Ai.

Time goes back to the present, Conan stands in front of Qin Zhibo, looking at the latter reluctantly.

Although according to the plan, they would conduct a joint maritime capture operation after finding the route and specific location of the ship, the two would still be able to meet up.

But Conan always felt that this side was not easy to see.

Qin Zhibo said: "It doesn't matter, we will see each other again..."

"Ah."

Conan nodded firmly and reminded, "Qin, take care of yourself."

"Haha, at such a young age, you're already worrying about adults~"

Qin Zhibo smiled and rubbed Conan's head, then turned around and got into the car.

Before leaving, he rolled down the car window again and exchanged glances with Kudo Yusaku who was standing behind him.

They both nodded, saying nothing more.

……

Two cars drove out of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department one after another and set off for the "Pacific Buoy".

The specific location of the Pacific buoy is naturally in the Pacific Ocean, where the nearest island is called "Hachijo Island".

Hachijojima is one of the Izu Islands, located 287 kilometers south of Tokyo.

In ancient times, Hachijojima was a place of exile, and the legend of Xu Fu was once circulated. In recent years, it has been redeveloped as a tourist destination because of the hot springs on the island.

An hour later, everyone arrived at Yokohama Port.

It took about six hours to take the ferry from Yokohama Port, and it was already evening when we arrived at Hachijo Island.

Everyone first stayed in a hotel on Hachijo Island and waited until the next day to board the "Pacific Buoy" liaison ship.

At night, Qin Zhibo sat alone on the public balcony of the hotel, looking at the dark sea in front of him.

Although he has now overcome his fear of the ocean, he still feels an inexplicable sense of tension whenever he sees the sea late at night.

It was like being in a fog filled with false shadows, or a forest spreading like a green hell.

This feeling always makes people uncomfortable.

"Are you still afraid of the sea now?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind.

Qin Zhibo looked back and saw Akai Wuwu walking towards him.

The latter slowly walked in front of Qin Zhibo, his eyes also looking towards the distant sea.

"You always told me that you could see a dark iron shadow on the sea..."

"You said it was Kanaloa's shadow, and it frightened you. Have you forgotten?"

Hearing this, Qin Zhibo's eyes were stunned for a moment without leaving a trace.

Kanaloa, he had heard of it.

This is the existence that is revered as the "God of the Sea" in the creation myth circulated in the Hawaiian region.

In the myth, Kanaloa was dissatisfied with the fact that the creator god Kanai had taught humans the art of fishing, so he caused a flood and sank Kanu Island.

It turns out that the nightmare that had troubled the original owner came from the "shadow on the sea" that he saw but others could not see?

"Well... so much time has passed, it's gotten much better now." Qin Zhibo replied calmly.

"is it?"

Akai Wuwu walked to the front, holding the railing with both hands, and muttered in a low voice.

"I have lived by the sea in Hawaii for many years. Every day when I open my eyes, I see the sea. I am slowly beginning to understand what you once said."

"I sometimes wonder if there is something deep in the ocean."

"It's just that I don't have the same strong curiosity as I did back then..."

"But the current situation forces us to take the initiative to explore the secrets of the sea..."

“It’s really ironic…”

A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of Akai Wuwu's mouth.

Qin Zhibo looked at Akai Wuwu's back, and also felt a sense of sadness from his words that things have changed and people have changed.

"Yes, people change..."

"The only thing that remains unchanged is the sea before our eyes."

……

The next day, the liaison ship of the "Pacific Buoy" arrived at the port of Hachijo Island on time.

Qin Zhibo and his group boarded the liaison ship and headed for the final destination of this trip.

Hey guys, let me tell you something.

Currently, the remaining content of Investigator Katsuki's book is about the confrontation with the organization, which can be said to be nearing the end.

I plan to update the rest of the content at the rate of one update per day (although it was also one update before, but 4000 words a day is unshakable, which is equivalent to two updates)
This book took a long time to write and I rarely took leave, which is obvious to everyone.

Including the previous book, I basically did not take any leave, and I did not take a day off between the two books, so the connection between the two books is quite good.

So after finishing this writing, I want to take a break for a while, and also take my mother who longs to go south to spend the winter and experience it.

But I don’t want to rest for too long and let everyone forget about me.

So I will stock up on manuscripts in advance these days to ensure that I can continue to update on the road.

This way, when this book is completely finished, you won’t have to wait for a few days to see my new book.

Thank you for your understanding.

Well, I'll wait until the end of the book to say the rest...
