Conan Rick's Investigator

Almost at the same time, a dull but loud metal collision sound was heard outside the villa.

boom--

The loud noise stimulated everyone's auditory nerves. Even Mao Lilan, who had fallen asleep on the table, quickly stood up and looked outside in surprise.

"Is help coming?"

Everyone ran out quickly and saw the hazy shadow of a ship looming in front of the pier.

Ran Mao Li, who had an agility of 90, ran over first, but was frightened to the point of paleness and fell down on the wooden planks of the pier.

"what--"

Screams echoed on the sea. Qin Zhibo walked over calmly without looking around, and raised his nuclear lighter to illuminate the front.

The captain's body was seen hanging on the left side railing of the ship. Next to his tragic death with his eyes wide open, there was a sign written in blood saying "I am a messenger from the underworld".

Conan: "?"

Conan looked at everything in front of him in surprise, but he was not surprised that the captain had turned into a corpse.

But this time, Qin Zhibo actually predicted the arrival of the captain's body, put on gloves in advance, and even looked towards the pier before the sound appeared.

This is not a detective...

This is clearly a prophet!

Chapter 471 Investigation Point on the Waist

Qin Zhibo didn't notice that Conan was watching him, and he focused his attention on the corpse in front of him.

【Corpse Investigation√】

[Name of the deceased: Shimoji Takashi]

[Time of death: 6 hour ago]

[Cause of death: strangulation]

[Corpse investigation completed, skill acquired: Ship driving]

Boat Driving: Boat driving involves mastering the maneuvering of small motorboats, sailboats, and other craft through the water. Improving this skill will enhance your ability to control your boat in storms and tidal waves, allowing you to interpret the behavior of waves and wind to predict reefs and approaching storms.

Rating: 1

Proficiency: 100/1000

(This will be a very important skill. If you can't escape her, maybe try running into her...)

I naturally acquired the new skill [Ship Driving] from the captain, and now I can drive a ship.

It was just the "nonsense" in the brackets after the skill that Qin Zhibo couldn't understand.

Looking at the corpses on the boat, Qin Zhibo couldn't and didn't dare to look sideways.

Because as long as he deviated his sight a little bit and saw the deep dark sea, Qin Zhibo could not suppress the disgust and nausea in his heart, as if he had PTSD.

If you see the sea during the day, the situation will be better, just like the last time on the cruise ship during the "Ye Sancai Incident".

Although we were also in the Pacific Ocean at the time, I didn't feel too uncomfortable looking at the ocean during the day, and even if there were some minor side effects, they were completely tolerable.

But at night, the situation is completely different...

You want to sail a warship in such a weak sea? (Audio hallucination)

Qin Zhibo's eyes were focused on the corpse. He did not see any investigation points on the corpse, but he could see some clues from the bloodstains on the captain's forehead.

The result of the autopsy was strangulation, but there was dried blood on the captain's forehead, which showed that the murderer used the body to vent his anger after strangling the captain.

After observing the corpse hanging on the boat, Qin Zhibo glanced at the hull roughly, but still found no investigation points.

But while scanning the survey points, Qin Zhibo's eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the sea water, and he suddenly became dazed, as if his soul had been traumatized.

Qin Zhibo: Will -4

Just a glance at the sea caused his willpower to drop by 4 points, which made Qin Zhibo's body tremble slightly, and he quickly turned around and stepped back.

Conan, who was standing next to him, felt a little strange when he saw Qin Zhibo suddenly turn around and retreat. This time, Qin Zhibo did not "go forward to meet the man" but "retreat to meet the man".

With his back to the corpse and the sea, Qin Zhibo expressed his insights on the corpse, such as the time and cause of death.

"But who could have done this?" Taketomi Masao's mustache trembled, and there was some worry between his brows.

Kume Yoshitsugu, standing nearby, was also feeling uneasy. "Besides the few of us, there really are others hiding on this island, killing people for fun!"

"You're absolutely right..." Daito Mikiyasu continued, his expression lighthearted and cheerful. "When the ship crashed into the pier, we were all gathered here. The murderer might still be hiding nearby."

"Isn't it the guy who claims to be from the underworld?" Nobuo Ikema looked around anxiously.

Everyone expressed their opinions, but Qin Zhibo noticed that one person's expression management was a bit poor.

Others may be uneasy or worried. Even if the captain is just an ordinary passerby who has nothing to do with anyone, normal people will still feel a little sad in this situation because of the grief of the rabbit.

However, there was no fear or anxiety on Daito Mikiyasu's face. Instead, he kept smiling and speaking out his inferences.

Seems very happy?

"Mr. Dadong, what are you laughing at?" Qin Zhibo walked forward and asked.

Faced with Qin Zhibo's question, Daito Kanhiko was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his expression management was a little out of control.

Excluding facial nerve abnormalities, the reason why humans smile is of course because they think of happy things.

The happy thing in Daito Mikiyasu's heart was of course seeing the captain's body, and remembering the captain's painful look when he was strangling his neck.

But of course, this was something Qin Zhibo couldn't tell, so Daito Kanyan suddenly had an idea and explained, "I'm just happy. Now that the ship is back, we can take the ship and leave here, and I happen to know how to drive a boat..."

Daito Mikiyasu's explanation seemed perfect, and it immediately shifted everyone's attention to the boat.

But Conan came out of the cockpit and shook his head. "It's impossible to leave by ship. The ship's fuel has been used up, the radio is out of order, and all the luggage on board is gone."

"The boat was set to autopilot, and the route was to circle the waters around the island and then return."

Conan has driven a yacht rented by Kudo Yusaku in Hawaii, so he has sufficient knowledge of driving this kind of small boat.

"Judging from the time the autopilot was set, the murderer must be one of us. He first killed the captain, then set the ship to autopilot mode and let it sail in the nearby waters."

"At dusk, everyone left the ship to look for the older sister, leaving the captain alone on board, right?"

Conan made it clear that he was not going to act anymore, and blurted out all kinds of reasoning that were beyond his age.

But at this moment, everyone was nervous and had no time to think about the elementary school student who was also showing a confident smile at the murder scene. They hurriedly asked each other who was the last to leave the boat.

"I was the last person to leave the boat."

Daito Mikiyasu did not hide his itinerary, but turned around and said that others might pretend to leave first and then return to the ship to kill people.

Qin Zhibo: "Oh, so that's how it is."

Daito Mikiyasu: “…”

……

The investigation of the body is almost complete. Although there is no camera to take pictures, in the spirit of humanitarianism, the hanging body looks a bit tragic, so it still needs to be taken down from the boat.

Because of the weak sea, Qin Zhibo could not get too close to the seashore and could only stand beside the boat to give orders while others went on board to untie the ropes and let the captain down.

"I'll go."

"And I……"

Mikiya Otoko and Masao Taketomi volunteered to go on board to carry the body, but in fact Mikiya Otoko also had a selfish motive, which was to get his fingerprints on the rope that was strangled around the captain's neck.

In this way, even if the police accidentally find my fingerprints on the rope later, I will have an excuse to explain.

Daito Mikiyasu jumped up and grasped the deck at the bow with both hands. While exerting force on his upper limbs to climb upwards, he laughed in his heart at the famous detective who was so unprofessional as to let others touch such important evidence.

At the same time, Qin Zhibo stood on the pier, not daring to look away at all, and could only stare at Daito Kanhiko's back.

The moment he climbed onto the bow of the boat, Qin Zhibo saw a ray of light from the gap in his fluttering shirt.

That is the light belonging to the investigation point!

Chapter 472 You are amazing and noble!

The light at the investigation point disappeared in an instant as Daito Mikiyasu climbed onto the bow and lost the observation angle.

With a research point on his waist, who else could it be but the murderer?

Qin Zhibo had already decided in his heart that the murderer was Daito Kanhiko, but he had only been at the investigation point for too short a time and didn't see clearly what the investigation point was targeting.

……

Daito Kanhiko moved the captain's body to the pier and squatted beside the body. He remembered that his facial expression management was a little out of control just now, and wanted to pretend to make up for it and restore his reputation.

"This death is really tragic..."

Looking at the captain who died with his eyes open, Daito Mikiyasu shook his head "unable to bear it".

At this moment, Daito Kanhiko suddenly felt the flesh between his buttocks and back was a little cool, and his heart shuddered.

not good!

Looking back, Qin Zhibo's eyes sank, and he stared blankly at the hem of his clothes that was stretched upwards due to squatting.

Daito Kanhiko quickly stood up calmly, holding his lower back, with a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.

This guy didn’t see it, this guy didn’t see it, this guy didn’t see it…

However, according to the routine of general film and television dramas, when you silently recite this sentence in your heart, you often see it.

"Mr. Dadong, your belt is quite unique."

"Can you take it off and lend it to me?"

Qin Zhibo pointed at Daito Kanhiko's waist, because Qin Zhibo had already figured out what it was through investigation.

【Survey√】

[This is a strong rope. Ropes have many uses, such as strangling people’s necks.]

Daito Mikiyasu had the rope tied around his waist, and combined with the investigation's findings, it was clear that this was the murder weapon.

After killing someone, he did not throw away the murder weapon, which only means that he was going to kill again.

……

Standing opposite, Daito Kanhiko stared at Qin Zhibo in a daze, feeling extremely conflicted.

I didn't expect that I was careless for a moment and the rope around my waist was seen!

This rope was the one used to kill Pingliang Yinjiang, but according to the memory of that year, there were four members in the bandit group, one starved to death, one was the captain, one was Pingliang Yinjiang, and there was only one left.

He had to use this rope to send the last person on the road. Putting the thick and long rope in his pocket would be a bit conspicuous, so Daito Kanhiko could only wrap the rope around his waist as a belt.

It's okay, I can explain...

Daito Mikiyasu cheered himself up inwardly, untying the rope with his hands, pretending to be nonchalant and explaining with a smile: "This rope is..."

Before Daito Kanhiko could finish his words, Qin Zhibo suddenly reached out and snatched the rope away while Daito Kanhiko was not on guard.

Bring it to you!

When he saw the rope slip out of his hand, Daito Kanhiko was stunned, but Qin Zhibo had already started to reason.

"This rope is the murder weapon that killed Miss Pingliang, and Mr. Dadong is carrying this rope. It seems that Mr. Dadong is the murderer."

The situation at the scene changed rapidly, catching everyone present, including Conan, off guard.

"Hey, I just took the rope off to explain its purpose to you. How did you treat it as a weapon?"

Daito Mikiyasu still tried to explain, but Qin Zhibo directly told him how to prove that this rope was the tool used to strangle Miss Pingliang.

"Miss Pingliang has scratches on her neck. These scratches were caused by her hands subconsciously pulling the rope outwards when her neck was being strangled. This is called the Yoshikawa line."

"Blood from scratches will inevitably get on the rope."

"We just have to wait for the police to come and take this rope for testing."

Qin Zhibo's little scientific popularization made Daito Kanhiko stare blankly with his eyes wide open.
