The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

In other words, before Takae Yatsushiro was murdered, someone had already scattered a clump of artificial blood plasma from the hospital at that location.

If you use your brain to imagine, it's not hard to come to a conclusion.

It was probably the third person who appeared at the crime scene who, after silently stabbing Yashiro Entarō from behind, immediately went to Yashiro Takae's room, pretended to be Yashiro Takae who had just finished taking a bath, and had Kusaka Hironari stab the blood bag, creating the illusion that he had killed Yashiro Takae.

Based on this reasoning, Hiroshige would probably become the best scapegoat for this third person.

Even he himself firmly believed that since he had killed the Yashiro father and daughter with his own hands, who could possibly recant his testimony?

If this person really is Minami Akiyoshi, then Kaoru Kazama has to say that she is the most ruthless woman.

He made Hirose Hirosaki his scapegoat while he himself remained a bystander, watching the drama unfold.

It has to be said that this tactic of using someone else to do one's dirty work perfectly embodies the essence of Sun Tzu's Art of War.

However, the other party's motives are currently unknown.

However, since it's not for money either, it might be similar to Hiroshige Kusaka's motive for murder.

Besides that crew member, wasn't there also a captain who perished in the sinking of the First Yashiro Maru?

Since Hiroshige is the son of a crew member, this woman might be the captain's daughter.

"Chris, can you find information about the family of Captain Okita, who died fifteen years ago?"

"There's a problem now; there's no way to access the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' birth records while at sea."

"Oh, I see. Then let's forget about it."

For Chris, things were both good and bad on the high seas, far from land.

The good thing is that the electrical signals from all the communication devices are under her control.

The downside is that the ocean also blocked her signal, preventing her from using the internet as freely as she did in Tokyo.

While Kazama Kaoru was pondering the ins and outs of the whole matter, the situation on the field had already developed into a rather awkward one.

Uncle Mori was completely speechless after being confronted by Minako Akiyoshi, and couldn't utter a single word.

Under these circumstances, Conan, the future son-in-law, naturally couldn't stand by and watch his father-in-law be humiliated.

Fortunately, Professor Agasa came aboard this time, which saved the others from suffering physical pain on the back of their necks.

Immediately afterwards, Conan began to use Professor Agasa's pseudonym to present his own deductions.

He even started by pretentiously explaining "cruise," which means sailing.

However, this guy is quite skilled; he has taken the reasoning method of entrapment to its extreme.

Knowing that Hiroshige couldn't possibly still have the recording he used to serve as an alibi at the time of the crime, he recorded one himself using a voice changer, which directly tricked the guy into revealing his crime.

He's still young after all, and he can't keep his composure.

"Detective, isn't this fabricating evidence? Aren't you police going to do anything about it?"

Ai, however, asked Kaoru Kazama about this with great interest.

"As long as the murderer is brought to justice, we'll turn a blind eye to everything else."

Kaoru Kazama spread her hands.

Although Conan's evidence has some problems, if we really take it seriously, and the culprit hires a lawyer who is good at scrutinizing details, there might actually be a possibility that the crime was committed.

However, Kazama Kaoru had already obtained his criminal plan, which clearly stated the guy's motives.

Therefore, no matter how absurd Conan's evidence is, she can always make it sound plausible.

"The problem is, that kind of recording alone can't be considered evidence of murder, right?"

After the initial panic, Hiroshige Kusaka came to his senses.

"Hey, big brother, what's wrong with you? There's a tuft of black hair mixed in with your red hair."

Conan suddenly appeared and, in a greasy, cutesy tone, pointed out a crucial piece of evidence on Hiroshige Kusaka's body.

While this move was quite unexpected, it's a bit ridiculous to say it in such a coquettish and cute way.

If this guy hadn't been doing some reasoning, Kazama Kaoru would definitely have given him a righteous and iron-fisted punishment.

"And if I'm not mistaken, isn't that blood?"

"Blood?"

After Conan said this much, Inspector Megure and the others finally realized what was going on.

"Could you also help me remove the scarf around his neck? If my reasoning is correct, the bruises shouldn't have disappeared yet; they should be scratches or finger marks left by Chairman Yashiro before his death."

Ignoring the hateful glare from Hirosuke Kusaka, Conan quickly hid behind Professor Agasa and then spoke in his own voice.

"Excuse me, Mr. Kusaka, could you please take off your scarf so we can take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Takagi and Shiratori immediately stepped forward and surrounded Hirosuke Kusaka, intending to take off his scarf if he refused.

Kaoru Kazama suppressed a laugh. He could understand the finger marks, but what the hell were the claw marks? Was Chairman Yatsushiro a monkey?

However, respecting the dead is paramount, and laughing out loud would still be going too far, so Kazama Kaoru tried her best to hold it back.

"Don't move, anyone. If you touch me again, I'm afraid my fingers might press down."

"Don't move, or I'll detonate the bomb."

Perhaps wanting to create even more chaos, this bastard, after threatening the police, loudly proclaimed that he had planted a bomb on the ship, as if he wanted to stir up trouble.

Chapter 526 The Unexploded Bomb

"If you think our police force is so incompetent that it can't even detect a bomb, then you can try pressing the button."

Kaoru Kazama, dressed in an evening gown, parted the crowd and spoke to Hiroshige Kusaka, who looked completely confident.

In fact, there was still one bomb that could not be defused.

However, Hiroshige's move relieved Kaoru Kazama of any worries.

If this kid chooses to secretly detonate the bomb, then she really has no way to deal with it.

But this guy actually pulled out the bomb controller in broad daylight, right in front of Kazama Kaoru.

Do you really think her level 5 electric shock ability is a joke? In this enclosed space, as long as there is an electromagnetic barrier, she can block all electromagnetic signals.

Not to mention the controller of a bomb, even the controller of a nuclear bomb would become ineffective.

"Damn it, stop looking down on me."

This guy is really reckless. Provoked by Kazama Kaoru, he actually pressed the bomb's control button.

"No."

"Calm down."

The screams of the upper class filled the hall for a moment.

However, things remained quiet after that, and the Aphrodite continued to drift peacefully at sea, without repeating the fate of its predecessor.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

"Click, click, click"

Hiroshige Kusaka, who had been wearing a smug smile, gradually stiffened his expression.

He then pressed the bomb's control button several more times, but the explosion he had imagined did not occur.

An awkward atmosphere filled the air.

He was like a clumsy magician who failed to perform a magic trick in front of a crowd.

"Damn it, what's going on? Explode! Explode!"

"Don't waste your time, the bomb can't explode, so just surrender obediently."

Kazama Kaoru crossed his arms, facing Kusaka Hiroshige, who was still unwilling to give up and was trying to wake up his bomb.

"What a joke! How could we possibly give up now?"

Hiroshige's eyes were bloodshot, with the blood vessels clearly visible.

After scanning his surroundings with a fierce look, he fixed his gaze on Kazama Kaoru.

"It's all your fault, you wretched woman! If it weren't for you, my plan wouldn't have failed. It's all your fault."

This punk seems to have mistaken his target; after circling around, he charged straight at Kazama Kaoru.

It seems he's planning to take someone down with him before he gets caught.

However, this guy's eyesight seems to be not very good. When he locked onto Kazama Kaoru as his target and rushed towards her with all his might, he did not notice the gazes of others.

There was a hint of pity in his eyes when he looked at Hirose.

Why choose her of all people?

With so many unruly kids around, it would be wiser to try and steal Conan than to attack Kazama Kaoru.

"It's coming towards me? Perfect, saves me a lot of trouble."

As Hiroshige Kusaka charged toward him, Kaoru Kazama didn't even lower his arm.

"boom"

Instead, he launched a flying kick, striking Hiroshige Kusaka directly in the abdomen.

"puff"

Hiroshige Kusaka, feeling an immense force strike him, lost control of his body and flew back in the original direction.

He even leaped over his starting point, only to be kicked to the edge of the stage by Kazama Kaoru.

This kick completely changed everyone's impression of Kazama Kaoru.

I originally thought she was a gentle and quiet beauty, but now I realize she's actually a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Hiroshige Kusaka is about 175 cm tall, of medium build, and weighs at least 75 kg. Yet he was kicked three or four meters away by Kaoru Kazama.

This is something that a normal woman, or rather, a normal human being, could not do.

In fact, this was only after Kazama Kaoru stopped, because they were in public, and if he had actually kicked someone, it would have caused a lot of controversy.

"Alright, let's talk about your question now, Ms. Minami Akiyoshi."
