Chapter 228 Beihu Port
Chapter 228 Beihu Port
Two black cars arrived, and Iori raised his hand and prepared to ask Conan and Hattori Heiji to sit in the front car with him, and the girls to sit in the back car.
Under the somewhat surprised gazes of Iori and Ooka Momiji, Nagai Hikaru picked up Conan with one hand, pushed Hattori Heiji to the back seat of a car in front, and sat in himself.
"So you guys have already prepared the car." Hattori Heiji, who got in first and sat down, straightened his hair. "What if we didn't crack the code before we got off?"
"Miss believes in your abilities," Iori replied.
"…Although we have solved it…we were not the first to give the answer." Hattori Heiji leaned his elbows on the car window to support his face and looked at Nagai Hikaru, "Is your brother also a detective?"
"No, he just read a lot of novels." Nagai Hikaru rested his chin on Conan's head and said leisurely, "But the author of the novel he read recently, Tianfen, died, so he will be bored for a while again."
Conan laughed dryly, not knowing what to say next.
"Heiji, are you going back tonight?" asked Mitsuru Nagai casually.
"It depends. We haven't bought the return ticket this time." Hattori Heiji shrugged, "It was Iori-san who sent us the ticket urgently, but tomorrow is summer vacation anyway."
"...Summer vacation?" Nagai Mitsuru turned around in surprise.
"Yeah, it turns out you don't know anything because you don't go to school." Hattori Heiji looked over half a month later.
"I remember they said it was going to snow a few days ago..."
"It's not raining in Tokyo." Conan continued, "We went to a church in Nagano a while ago and encountered an avalanche. The police didn't arrive that night and only came the next day. Oh, didn't Mr. Hamura tell me when he came back?"
"No, you originally said that the commission would take two days and one night."
When we arrived at Haido Port, Toru Amuro's white Mazda was waiting in the parking lot. When he saw Hikaru Nagai getting out of the car, he smiled and said hello.
"Your brother said that you should stay away from people." Amuro Toru put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked to Nagai Hikaru. "Mr. Hamura didn't come out today?"
"Originally, Brother Jin was supposed to accompany me out, but when we got there, he thought the crowds were bothering him and he just left." Nagai Hikaru complained in a low voice, "What? In the end, he even said that detective games are more suitable for us to play by ourselves."
Amuro Toru smiled gently: "But this is a rare time when he has a good temper."
Iori, who was standing behind Hongye, looked at Amuro Toru in surprise. Amuro Toru raised his head and looked at him, then smiled: "You seem to be Mr. Iori, the butler of Miss Ooka's house, right?"
"……drop……"
"My name is Toru Amuro, nice to meet you." Toru Amuro stretched out his hand.
"...Hello, Mr. Amuro." The two shook hands and quickly let go.
The group was led to the fourth warehouse, and Toru Amuro listened to Hattori Heiji recount what had happened.
The warehouse manager walked in front and said, "In fact, four people came here before you today."
Yuanshan Heye turned to look at Mao Lilan: "Could it be those four brothers?"
"It seems they have all figured out the code."
"Okay, we're here. That's the fourth warehouse." The warehouse manager pointed ahead.
The warehouse door was half open, and several people walked into the dark warehouse: "Is anyone there?" Hattori Heiji shouted.
After getting used to the dark light in the warehouse, the people who came in finally saw clearly inside that three people were surrounding a corpse.
Mao Li Ran and Toyama Kazuha screamed, and Mao Li Ran took out her cell phone and skillfully called the police.
"What should I say?" Conan sighed with his hands in his trouser pockets.
Hattori Heiji carefully observed the body and stood up: "Xiao Guang... you are right, the victim should be the missing eldest brother. And the murderer is among you three."
Amuro Toru looked at Nagai Hikaru: "What did you say?"
"I saw that the eldest of four brothers was missing and the three younger brothers were looking for him... I just had a hunch." Nagai Mitsuru saw that Mao Li Ran had already started telling the police the location, so he picked up his mobile phone and checked the time.
Hattori Heiji noticed the difference: "Where's your white amulet? I saw you were on your phone at the time."
"Oh, I put it somewhere else." Nagai Mitsuru answered nonchalantly.
"I thought you would always carry it with you as a treasure, seeing that you liked it so much." Hattori Heiji was a little surprised.
Nagai Hikaru hooked a rope around his neck to indicate, but did not pull it out from his clothes to show Hattori Heiji: "It's here."
"…Changed to close-range release, is this lucky guard very effective?"
"……Um."
Amuro Toru came over and said softly, "Hattori-san, can you tell me more details about the case you came here for? For example, the note with the coded message."
"Okay." Having the topic interrupted, Hattori Heiji took out four notes from his bag and turned to explain to Amuro Toru.
Inspector Megure arrived quickly with agents from the First Investigation Division, including Takagi Wataru, since Mika's office building was very close to Haido.
Takagi Wataru looked at the body on the ground, and first looked at Nagai Hikaru: "Was it a fall? Or was it suicide?"
"He was murdered." Hattori Heiji reminded, "His glasses were broken but there were no scars on his face, which means that the glasses were put on him later."
Takagi Wataru didn't look at Hattori Heiji, but looked at Nagai Hikaru with regret and said, "Didn't we catch him in the act this time?"
"...Officer Takagi, I'm not always so unlucky." Sweat dripped from Nagai's bald head.
"I see." Takagi Wataru turned his head away with regret. "If you can't catch them in the act, then going to the scene is no different from using a cell phone."
"..."
Nagai Mitsuru glanced helplessly at Conan beside him, and Conan smiled at him ingratiatingly.
Inspector Megure listened to Ooka Momiji and Hattori Heiji working together to explain the cause of the incident.
Ooka Hongye sighed, "Because I was also commissioned by that wealthy family, I thought of finding two more people to help find it so that the incident can be resolved quickly. I didn't expect..."
Nagai Hikaru took a step back and stood next to Amuro Toru.
Amuro Toru smiled and whispered in his ear: "The previous mobile phone detective, was it Conan who borrowed your name to create it?"
"Yeah, since we can't use Shinichi's identity, we can only get myself in." Nagai Hikaru pulled the corner of Amuro Toru's clothes and hushed him, "Keep it a secret."
"You have so many little secrets."
"Brother Toru will definitely keep it a secret for me." Nagai Hikaru smiled and narrowed his eyes. "By the way, it's rare for you to come out today. Do you want to see how my guitar practice is going?"
"...Are you... still practicing?" Toru Amuro recalled what he heard last time and really wanted to persuade Hikaru Nagai to change the direction of his efforts.
"I also learned a song by Mai Kuraki this time, and Sally liked it very much." Nagai Mitsuru raised his chin proudly.
Seeing Nagai Hikaru's excited look, Amuro Toru couldn't help but tell the truth: "Really? Then you must let me hear it. I'm really looking forward to it."
At dusk, after collecting various clues, Hattori Heiji pointed out the criminal and calmly deduced that the real treasure left by the nanny was the roasting pan on which the four brothers' hands were burned while trying to protect their mother.
Ooka Momiji looked at Hattori Heiji with some emotion, then turned to Iori and whispered, "Heiji is still very handsome at this time."
Until the criminal confessed and was handcuffed and taken away, Toru Amuro followed Takagi Wataru, seemingly wanting to ask something.
Hattori Heiji turned to look at Nagai Hikaru and said, "By the way, don't you have a house in Haido 2-chome? Can I sleep at your place tonight?"
"Ah, but my house is a small one and there is no dedicated guest room." Nagai Mitsuru exclaimed.
"It's okay, we can do like last time and sleep together as three people." Hattori Heiji said indifferently.
Ooka Hongye took a step back and turned her head: "No, I really can't accept Hattori like this."
No one noticed that Ooka Hongye had quickly turned around and left.
Nagai Hikaru waved his hand and said, "I have to go back to Dracula today. Conan will take you to Ni-chome and you can stay there directly. You can let Kazuha sleep in my room and you can sleep in Shuichi's room next to it."
Hattori Heiji was not polite: "Key?"
"The password to open the door is my birthday. You can ask Conan." Several people stood at the port. Nagai Hikaru checked the time on his phone. "It's time for dinner."
Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered something and pulled Toyama Kazuha towards the beach.
Mao Lilan also suddenly realized it.
"What is this for?" Nagai Mitsuru asked blankly.
Amuro Toru walked back: "Maybe it's a confession."
"what?"
"There are two passenger ships, one red and one white, that meet in this port once a year. When the two ships overlap, their chimneys and bows form a heart shape. Many couples come here to take photos and check in at this time." Toru Amuro walked back to Hikaru Nagai and explained.
"I see." Nagai Hikaru nodded, "Hey, where's Xiaolan?"
Conan walked in front and pointed to the stairs above the warehouse at the port: "She just found a barbecue discount coupon in her bag and ran excitedly to tell Kazuha. Let's have barbecue tonight..."
"..." Watching Toyama Kazuha smiling and talking to Mouri Ran in the sunset, then they walked down the stairs and stood on the beach, and went to take pictures in front of the boat, leaving Hattori Heiji alone with a confused look on his face.
"The will of the big world, right?" Nagai Mitsuru chuckled.
Seeing Conan and his companions coming over here, Mao Lilan waved and shouted: "Xiao Guang, Xiao Guang, come here and take a photo with us. I just heard someone here tell me that this ship only meets once a year."
Nagai Hikaru smiled and waved his hand and replied: "Come on, let's let Conan take a photo for us."
