Detective Conan: Is Miss Haibara planning to assault a police officer again today?

As soon as he got out of the car, Inspector Megure started yelling, "Hey Higashino! How could you use the police lights so casually?!"

Higashino Ning shrugged. "Didn't you, Inspector, tell me to get back as soon as possible?"

Everyone: "..."

Inspector Megure didn't want to waste time arguing with Higashino about this kind of thing. "In short, from now on, you are absolutely not allowed to use the police lights unless it is an emergency. Let's set off immediately. The incident occurred at sea."

This time we will need to take a helicopter.

Higashino Ning didn't have a chance to speak on the way, but after boarding the helicopter, he looked at Shiratori Ninzaburo and asked, "Inspector Shiratori, didn't you go on vacation to Karuizawa?"

Shiratori Ninzaburo chuckled, "I felt it wasn't very interesting, so I simply came back. As it stands, my return was very timely."

Shiratori Ninzaburo was actually Kuroba Kaito in disguise, Higashino Ning remembered.

Unfortunately, Kaito Kuroba doesn't kill people, so Higashino Ning can't get any rewards from him.

[The host has successfully seen through Phantom Thief Kid's disguise. A major side quest is now initiated: Capture an international criminal.]

[Each successful capture of an international criminal will earn you a minimum of 10 reward points and one chance to win a prize.]

Higashino Ning's gaze, which had just descended, instantly focused on Shiratori Ninzaburo's face.

Dude, I think you smell really good now.

Chapter 75 officially intervenes in the theatrical version.

Kaito Kuroba may be appealing, but directly capturing him wouldn't be a wise move.

It is important for people to know themselves.

Higashino Ning knew his own limitations; capturing Kuroba Kaito was somewhat overestimating his abilities.

and many more......

Higashino Ning wondered to himself, "My dear consort, does arresting someone necessarily mean sending them to jail?"

[Returning to the host, as long as the public recognizes that "the host has successfully captured XXX," you will receive reward points. Sending XXX to prison will grant you a chance to win a prize later.]

[Note: This lottery offers rewards of at least level 2 skill, depending on the criminal's level.]

Hiss~~~ If that's how you put it, then I'll have to become friends with Kaito Kuroba first.

People with a strong sense of self-preservation are wary of enemies, but are relatively kinder to their friends.

Higashino Ning could have waited until their relationship was right and then had Kuroba Kaito cooperate with him to exploit a bug and get the system's reward points for free.

The lowest is 10 points!

Kaito Kid is a top star on an international scale!

This wave should at least give you 50 free reward points, right?

And isn't Scrooge, whom he's trying to arrest this time, also an international criminal?

One historical expedition yielded two great gains.

This is truly a double celebration!

"Why is Officer Higashino looking at me like that?"

At this moment, Kaito Kuroba, who was already on guard and ready to make a run for it, asked a question.

Higashino Ning snapped out of his reverie and shook his head with a smile. "I just suddenly thought of something."

Seeing that Higashino Ning made no further moves, Kuroba Kaito said no more.

However, he remained vigilant at all times, ready to make a quick getaway if anything went wrong. The sky was his domain, and he didn't think the police officer in front of him could see through his disguise.

...

The police helicopter landed on the Suzuki family's cruise ship very quickly.

As soon as he got off the plane, Higashino Ning saw Kogoro Mouri and Shiro Suzuki, the head of the Suzuki family.

"Inspector Megure, we await your arrival!"

The bumbling detective greets everyone with kind words first.

There was nothing he could do; he was at the crime scene again, this time at sea. It was a little embarrassing to trouble Inspector Megure to come over at night.

And saying something nice beforehand might save you from being ridiculed.

But his plans were destined to fall through.

Inspector Megure was about to peacefully go home to his wife after work when a call to the police brought him here.

"Honestly, why do cases always seem to happen wherever you are?"

Megure said with a disdainful tone, "I'm begging you, please go out less often in the future, and let our police force rest for a couple of days."

Kogoro Mouri was utterly embarrassed, but he stubbornly persisted, "I still believe this might be God's will."

Upon hearing this, Kaito Kuroba immediately added, "I think Mr. Mori is a god himself, and a death god at that."

It was a bit offensive, but the bumbling detective couldn't argue with it.

Because wherever he goes, people die, like a curse.

Higashino Ning felt sorry for Kogoro Mouri being ridiculed by everyone, so he comforted him, "Mr. Mouri, don't take it to heart. It wasn't you who instigated or guided the murderer to kill. Being able to give the victim the truth as soon as possible is already a great deed."

The bumbling detective immediately opened his eyes wide in astonishment, his gaze trembling uncontrollably. He gripped Higashino Ning's hand tightly, "Officer Higashino, I, Kogoro Mouri, am extremely grateful for your understanding!"

He truly deserves to be called a top-tier judo master; his strength is considerable.

Higashino Ning smiled and said not to worry about it, then lowered his voice and continued, "Besides, I think the Grim Reaper is actually someone else."

"Who...who is it?" Kogoro Mouri blinked, somewhat bewildered.

“I feel like he’s a bit like Conan,” Higashino Ning shrugged, “because he appears at crime scenes more often than you, Mr. Mori.”

At that moment, Inspector Megure, who was walking ahead, turned around and called out, "Hey Higashino, what are you dawdling for?"

"We're here!"

After replying to Inspector Megure, Higashino Ning gestured to the bumbling detective, "Mr. Mori, please?"

After leaving the helipad, Kogoro Mouri immediately began to explain the general situation of the case to everyone.

If Ran Mouri is a professional alarm caller, then he is a professional commentator.

The deceased was named Han Chuanlong, 32 years old, a freelance writer. The cause of death was a bullet that pierced his brain through his right eye.

The scene was chaotic, with signs of destruction everywhere. According to the bumbling detective, the deceased also had a valuable ring stolen.

The suspect was identified very quickly.

Because forensic investigators found a pen on the ground with the words "M. Nishino" written on the cap.

On the ship was a man named Masato Nishino, who was Suzuki Shiro's secretary. He was 25 years old and was the first person to discover the body.

However, after the police found him, he insisted that he had only gone to call the deceased to eat because it was mealtime, and that he had not entered the room.

While Inspector Megure was questioning Masato Nishino, Conan ran over to whisper something to Nene Higashino.

"Officer Higashino, could you squat down a little? I have something to tell you."

Higashino Ning felt extremely uncomfortable.

Why does a boy have to speak in a little girl's tone?

That's not right either. If Conan said something like, "Officer Higashino, could you squat down a little?" or "Officer Higashino, I have something to say to you," he would probably be even more resistant.

"What is it?" Higashino Ning bent down slightly.

Conan immediately asked, "Brother Higashino, do you know of any criminals who specifically target people's right eyes?"

"Because I saw that Mr. Hanchuan Long was shot in the right eye, and last night Phantom Thief Kid was also shot in the right eye before falling into the sea, I feel that there must be some connection between them."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Higashino Ning nodded. "I know one, named Skobing, an international fugitive who specializes in stealing Romanov dynasty treasures all over the world. However, his age and gender are still unknown."

Conan lowered his head in thought, "Is that so...?"

If we consider the possibility that the murderer is Shikabin, then Masato Nishino can basically be ruled out as a suspect, because he was Shiro Suzuki's secretary, and under such intense work pressure, it would be impossible for him to juggle multiple roles at the same time.

Moreover, if an internationally wanted criminal had already risen to the position of secretary to the chairman, he would have probably already achieved his goals long ago, and there would be no need for him to have been in this position until now.

Furthermore, if he remembers correctly, Masato Nishino is allergic to feathers, but the crime scene was filled with feathers stuffed into pillows, which is also illogical.

Police insider training program launched!

Conan smiled at Higashino Ning and told her that "Sco Bing couldn't be the chairman's secretary" and "Nishino Masato is allergic to feathers," then gestured for Higashino Ning to tell Inspector Megure.

Without much hesitation, Higashino Ning used the clues provided by Conan to clear Nishino Masato of suspicion, and stated that the lost ring could definitely be found in Nishino Masato's room.

Accepting your clues doesn't mean I'll become your dog.

What's there to say if the inequality is so easily solved?

And I'm going to keep trying to get clues from you.

Higashino Ning sought out Conan again and began questioning him about the behavior and characteristics of everyone involved in the trip.

Takagi Wataru answers Conan's questions without hesitation, Conan answers Higashino Nene's questions without hesitation, and Higashino Nene answers Takagi Wataru's questions without hesitation...

Well, a perfect closed loop cannot be formed yet.

Chapter 76 Using the process of elimination

Seeing Higashino Ning's confident words, Inspector Megure, who had been tricked by Kogoro Mouri before, still hesitated.

However, Takagi Wataru, who was in charge of assisting with the investigation, soon brought information that the stolen ring had indeed been found in Nishino Masato's room.

Shiro Suzuki also confirmed that Masato Nishino is indeed allergic to feathers.

"So, Brother Dongye, you mean the real perpetrator is that internationally wanted criminal named Scorpion?"

With the only suspect now cleared of suspicion, Inspector Megure is starting to look for powerful figures to take him under his wing.
