Maori Kogoro's daily life in the science harem

She looked out to sea, as if recalling something. "Here, every wave carries a story."

There was a hint of sadness in her words, which made the atmosphere around them slightly gloomy.

Samezaki Shimaji sensed the change in atmosphere and asked softly, "Ms. Isogai, do you think that stories about the sea are all painful memories?"

Isogai Nagisa shook her head slightly and smiled: "No, it's just that sometimes it can make people forget the pain and embrace new hope."

"Just like a corpse, it will be buried in the sea."

"Ms. Isogai..."

The kind-hearted Xiaolan looked at Isogai Nagisa with concern. Isogai Nagisa suddenly came to her senses, shook her head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, my father was buried in the sea. I was a little dazed for a moment, so I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"Won't……"

Xiaolan looked at Isogai Nagisa with heartache, and couldn't help but turn to look at Mouri Kogoro who was looking at the cruise ship.

Dads are very attractive to girls and can comfort them. A beautiful and sentimental woman like Miss Isogai, should be able to be comforted by a dad, right?

We have to think of a way to let Dad comfort Miss Isogai.

……

It was getting dark, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sea, and the waves sparkled with golden light.

On the deck, Hattori Heiji, who had been visiting, came over with a puzzled look on his face: "Why didn't Mr. Furukawa show up when he asked him to solve the case on the San Verni?"

He had been looking for Furukawa Dai, but to no avail.

"Maybe it will appear at dinner time."

Conan played with his phone while comforting him, "It seems that this cruise ship was chartered by Mr. Furukawa, so he won't be absent easily."

"how do you know?"

Hattori Heiji looked surprised. Conan sighed and said, "I just sent a message to Huibara Ai on the deck, asking her to help investigate."

"Oh? That young lady? She's good at this?"

Hattori Heiji said in surprise, and Conan nodded, "She is still very powerful."

Even though Haibara Ai always treats me like a laboratory rat, I still have some feelings for her.

But if I want to ask her for help, I have to draw a tube of blood from her.

"In this case, if you have any problems in this area in the future, you will have to ask that young lady for help."

Hattori Heiji said happily, Conan coughed, "Then we'll talk about it later."

It's okay to draw a tube of blood occasionally, but he won't be able to bear it if he does it all the time.

At this time, Mao Li looked at the darkening sky, clapped his hands with a smile, turned around and called everyone: "Let's go, it's almost time, let's go eat first."

Chapter 312 Isogai Nagisa

Maori and his companions walked into the restaurant, and the waiters on the ship brought up sumptuous meals, which was like a visual feast.

Yuanshan Heye looked at the dishes and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really luxurious!"

"Stupid, this is a luxury cruise ship."

Hattori Heiji couldn't help but retort to her, but Toyama Kazuha didn't bother to pay attention to him. She rolled her eyes at him and sat next to Mori.

Xiaolan sat on the other side of Maori, and the two girls started chattering around Maori.

At this time, the three guests who had been seen on the deck before also walked into the restaurant, nodded to each other, and began to sit down to eat.

Kameda and Kanie were sitting together, talking to each other, while Ebina was sitting alone, holding the suitcase in his hands.

After eating for a while, Hattori Heiji saw that no more people showed up in the restaurant, so he called a waiter and asked if there was another gentleman who had not arrived.

The waiter carefully checked the list of guests and said with a smile, "Yes, there is still a gentleman named Ye Caisan who has not come to the restaurant."

"Ye Caisan?"

Upon hearing this name, everyone except Maori and his group's faces suddenly changed.

The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became solemn, and the originally lively laughter disappeared. Everyone's eyes involuntarily focused on Hattori Heiji.

"What's wrong? Is there anything special about Ye Caisan?"

Hattori Heiji looked surprised, and Maori quickly pulled him over and whispered: "The leader of the 400 million yen robbery case that Samezaki Shimaji is investigating is called Ye Saizo."

"That is to say, except for us, everyone else present here is related to Ye Caisan?"

Hattori Heiji looked at the people whose faces changed and said in a deep voice. His words made the atmosphere around them even more tense.

"Oh, that's really interesting."

Samezaki Shimaji snorted coldly, his expression becoming more serious.

"Who is that Furukawa Dai? How could he bring all the people related to Ye Caisan onto this ship?"

He suddenly stood up and asked the waiter, "Which room is Ye Caisan staying in?"

The waiter was startled by his momentum and quickly replied: "He lives in 101."

After hearing this, Samezaki Jimaji quickly pulled the waiter and rushed towards the room, followed by Mori and his group.

When they arrived at the entrance of 101, Samezaki Shimaji urged anxiously: "Quick, open the door!"

The door was locked, and the waiter tried to open the door with the key in a panic, but because he was too nervous, the key accidentally fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Ouch! Break it open!"

Samezaki Shimaharu couldn't wait any longer and was about to bang on the door, but Maori patted him on the shoulder and signaled him to calm down.

Maori stared at the door, feeling a little uneasy.

He took a deep breath, turned around, took a step back, and then kicked the door.

With a loud "bang", the door opened, revealing the scene inside the house.

The room was suffocatingly quiet. Apart from the neatly made bed and furniture that showed no signs of life, there was almost no sign of human activity.

Maori and others looked around and confirmed that the room was empty.

Samezaki Shimaji frowned and cursed angrily: "He must be on the boat!"

He turned around immediately, determined to search the cruise ship.

However, after some searching, the result was disappointing - nothing was found.

As time gradually grew later, Samezaki Shimaharu walked towards the deck reluctantly and sat on it, letting the sea breeze blow on him.

He was filled with anxiety. After twelve o'clock tonight, the statute of limitations for the case would end and Ye Caisan might escape.

His mood became increasingly dim, just like the setting sun that gradually sank into the sea level.

Mao Li saw that he looked depressed, so he comforted him: "Don't worry too much, maybe he is still on the ship, but he is hiding well."

Samezaki Shimaji shook his head, indicating that he needed to be quiet for a while.

In desperation, Maori had to leave the deck and go to the bar on the ship.

Inside the bar, the lights were dim and everyone had gathered here.

Nagisa Isogai was chatting with an Ebina who looked a little timid, and Ebina seemed particularly nervous in front of this beauty.

Kanie was drinking with Kujirai, looking relaxed, while Hattori Heiji and Conan, who were sitting next to him, looked distressed, obviously thinking about what had just happened.

“This atmosphere is not good.”

Xiaolan looked at the bar with a little worry, feeling that the whole space was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.

"How about we play some cards to liven up the atmosphere?"

Toyama and Ye suggested.

Xiaolan was very excited about this. Just then, Maori came from the deck. Xiaolan immediately took Maori's hand and said excitedly: "Dad, let's go invite Isogai Nagisa to join the game!"

The atmosphere in the bar gradually became relaxed due to Xiaolan's suggestion.

Several people sat around a round table covered with playing cards and drinks.

Xiaolan seemed particularly excited. Her laughter was as sweet as a spring, constantly stirring the emotions of the people around her.

"Come on, are you ready to accept my challenge?"

Xiaolan was full of energy and a challenging gleam in her eyes.

After the game started, Xiaolan's luck was incredible and she quickly took control of the overall situation.

She smiled and used her good luck to drag Mori and Isogai Nagisa into the trap she had carefully set. After a few rounds, Mori only had a few cards left in his hand, while Isogai Nagisa had already lost everything.

"Haha! Dad, Ms. Isogai, you two lose!"

Xiaolan announced with mock excitement, a hint of mischief in her eyes.

Maori and Isogai Nagisa looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and finally stood up together and walked to the bar next to them.

Xiaolan turned back deliberately, winked at Maori and said, "Dad, comfort Miss Isogai!"

Maori smiled knowingly and understood Xiaolan's intention.

He turned around, faced Isogai Nagisa, and asked, "What would you like to drink? The bartender at the bar is pretty good."

Isogai Nagisa was slightly stunned, a blush appeared on her face, and she said softly: "Just a cocktail will be fine."

Maori nodded and the bartender quickly prepared a drink for her.

Seeing Isogai Nagisa holding up her wine glass, Maori smiled and asked, "Ms. Isogai is such a beautiful woman, but she always looks depressed. It really makes people feel distressed."

Isogai Nagisa took a sip of the wine, was slightly stunned, and then gave a wry smile.

Her eyes were soft, as if she was thinking about something, and then she slowly responded: "I am just confused about some things in the past. Many people say that we should look forward, but some memories always linger."

Mao Li noticed her expression and asked calmly, "Are you referring to Ye Caisan's matter?"

Isogai Nagisa nodded, a trace of uneasiness flashing in his eyes, "I always wonder if the result would be different if the original choice was different."

Chapter 313 It's Noon

Maori raised his wine glass, a gentle smile on his face.

"Ms. Isogai, I guess Ye Caisan must be a very important person to you, right? Even if he is a robber."

He deliberately slowed down his tone and observed Isogai Nagisa's reaction.

Isogai Nagisa was slightly stunned, shaking the crystal cocktail glass in her hand. The light red liquid seemed to flow with a trace of bloody sorrow under the light.

She took a deep breath and lowered her head, as if she was gathering her emotions.

After a moment, she raised her head, her eyes filled with complex and deep pain, and she slowly spoke: "...He is my father."

Mao Li's heart moved, but his expression remained calm. He just nodded slightly, indicating that she should continue.

"Because of my father's identity, I have never been able to hold my head up. I knew from a young age that he was not a good person. But despite this, he is still my only relative, a person full of contradictions and pain in my memory."

Isogai Nagisa smiled bitterly, that smile was mixed with helplessness and sadness.

"I know he did bad things, even things that were against the will of heaven and earth... But those memories, those fragments of life, will never go away. My father's influence is deeply rooted in my life. He brought me great changes, but also made me bear too many shadows that I can't get rid of."

As Isogai Nagisa spoke, his gaze became vague, as if he was trapped in a whirlpool of the past.

She raised her chin slightly and pointed at the man sitting on the other side of the bar, who was none other than Ebina Minoru.

"Mr. Maori, look, there's a sad person over there too."

Isogai Nagisa's voice was soft, but it revealed a keen insight that seemed to see through everything.

She pointed at the wine glass in front of Ebina Minoru and said to Maori, "The wine in front of him is a 'Bloody Mary', a cocktail as red as blood. I'm afraid today is the anniversary of the death of the woman he loved most, Mr. Ebina."

Maori followed her gaze and saw that Ebina Minoru had his head lowered, holding the wine glass with both hands, his knuckles were white, and he looked like a lost soul, emitting a deep sadness.

Although he tried his best to remain calm, the suppressed pain and sorrow were everywhere.

Mao Li's eyes softened slightly, and he raised his glass and gently raised it towards Ebina across the crowd.

Ebina seemed to notice it, raised his head, looked at Maori for a moment, then nodded woodenly and slowly drank the glass of "Bloody Mary".

Isogai Nagisa withdrew his gaze from Ebina Minoru and turned to look at Mori, with a self-deprecating smile on the corner of his lips.

"Some people spend their lives mourning for someone they've lost, while others grieve for the years they've lost. I don't know which one I belong to, but I know that I will never escape the shadow of the past in my life."
