“Garden!”
Xiaolan called her name in annoyance.
When Kuzuha Masumi saw the interaction between the two, she also started laughing.
“You two have a really good relationship.”
“Of course, Xiaolan and I have been close friends since kindergarten. I know everything about her!”
Winnet and Haibara Ai looked at each other and both smiled.
“Look, the fireworks are starting to change.”
At this time, Masato Mikami pointed to the sky, and the color of the fireworks changed from red and orange to yellow, gradually changing, just like the gradient color of a computer screen.
Kuba Masumi turned the camera.
“Mr. Du Shang, can you help me?” She said, holding her stomach. “Maybe it’s because I’ve been blown by the wind for too long. I feel a little uncomfortable. Can you help me control it?”
“no problem.”
Mikami Masato agreed straightforwardly.
He operated the camera instead of Jiuye.
Winette felt a little strange. After all, photography is a skill that relies heavily on technology, and photographers are usually reluctant to hand it over to outsiders.
“Mr. Mikami, do you have a hobby of photography?”
Winnet asked.
“Ah, this. Although my level is not very good, I am a model by profession, and I occasionally have the opportunity to come into contact with the camera.”
“A model…” Sonoko muttered, and then as if she had suddenly remembered something, “You are the Shinri Yaya, right? I saw you in a fashion magazine.”
Masato Mikami nodded awkwardly, then moved the camera hastily.
Fashion magazine… Men’s fashion magazine, right? Winette was a little reluctant to comment, but she thought Sonoko was quite cute and didn’t chase after the opposite sex.
When the two were talking about their interests and hobbies, Winnett lifted Ai up.
“You’re more used to this perspective, right?”
“have a finger in the pie.”
Xiao Ai glanced at Winnet with dead eyes.
She always felt that Winnett had become bolder after she became smaller. Then, she quickly understood that this guy didn’t regard her as a lover at all.
“What does it matter? It’s easier to see this way, isn’t it?”
“Okay then, I’ll take a look for you.”
Xiao Ai did not continue arguing with Winnet. She did not know that Winnet’s eyes could already see most things, so she treated her with the same attitude as before.
Since she can’t see the beauty, I will reluctantly tell her and share it with her.
Xiao Ai thought.
“What does a blurry image look like? It looks like snowflakes outside a foggy window, but in colorful colors.”
Winnett recalled.
To be honest, there were no fireworks at parties in town, and she had never thought of going to see them during her years in Japan. When she wasn’t with Shirley, she didn’t even think about having fun.
“Well, that’s right.”
“is it beautiful?”
“Isn’t there a saying that beauty is created by obscurity? Although the colors are beautiful, but——”
Winette suddenly put Ai down, took a few steps back, stared at Ai’s cheek, and stayed like this for a few seconds before turning back.
“Not as good as you standing in the scenery.”
Winnet whispered.
“It sounds really corny, but beauty does need a foil. How can you learn sweet words if you stay alone all the time? Could it be that I have become the foolish girl who was deceived?”
“You always say things that make me nervous, and I can say the same thing. Besides, I have a very pleasant voice, and you know it best. Right, Ai-chan?”
“rhetoric.”
Xiao Ai concluded, ignoring Winnet and concentrating on the gorgeous fireworks. Traveling with a lover, getting along slowly and steadily, is just like a dream you usually have. It makes people unsure where the next step will develop and what exciting things will happen. However, after hesitating for a moment, Xiao Ai grabbed Winnet’s arm and took a step forward. The water surface reflected the same brilliance as the fireworks, and her appearance.
Yuanzi, who was watching this scene, was a little surprised.
“It feels like the relationship between the two of them has suddenly become very good.”
“Well, maybe Miss Winnett knows how to get along with children better. However, I think Conan is quite afraid of her.”
Xiaolan recalled how Conan looked when he saw Winnet, and that he almost always hid behind him.
“That boy must have felt shy because Miss Winnet was such a beauty. Really, kids nowadays are so precocious!”
Yuanzi made his final judgment and then looked towards the cabin at the back.
“But Miss Jiuye is so slow. It’s been ten minutes already, right?”
“Maybe I’m not feeling well.”
Xiaolan answered instead.
After a while, Kuba Masumi returned to the deck, made a shy joke, and then resumed filming. Meanwhile, Mikami Masato, who was having a drink, said he felt a little dizzy.
“Maybe I drank a little too much. I want to go back to my room and rest.”
“Do you need help?”
Jiuye Zhencheng frowned.
“No, I can find the room myself.”
As soon as he left, the deck became somewhat deserted again.
It was early spring, and although the seasonal changes were always strange in Winnet’s eyes, they were normal to everyone else. When the fireworks ended, everyone, feeling a little cold, walked into the glass-covered lounge on the deck. After a while, Chef Sakagami came over with hot tea, and Captain Taniguchi, who was driving the ship, also walked onto the deck.
“Mr. Captain.”
Kuzuha Masumi greeted Captain Taniguchi.
“Ms. Jiuye, how was the shoot today?”
“Thanks to you, I was able to take some great photos. By the way, why didn’t I see Mr. Hebe? It’s been a long time, right?
After Jiuye mentioned it, everyone present remembered Hebe Yuichi, the owner of the ship.
“I just saw Miss Niwada. She was processing some documents. She said she was going to visit Mr. Hebe’s room in a while.”
“That’s right.”
Sonoko didn’t understand the conversation between the two, nor had she ever seen Miss Niwada.
“Excuse me, who is Miss Niwada?”
“She is Mr. Hebe’s secretary. Mr. Hebe’s daily arrangements and company-related documents are all handled by her.” Captain Taniguchi replied, “Although I told her to relax today, she refused with the excuse that ‘there is still important work to do’. Speaking of work, it should be the cooperation with the Durant Group. After the deal was reached, Mr. Hebe seemed very happy.”
As soon as Captain Taniguchi finished speaking, a terrified roar was heard in the cabin.
Xiaolan, who often stays with Conan, reacted immediately. She was the first to run into the cabin, through the narrow corridor, and rushed to the scene where the scream occurred.
A woman she had never seen before was sitting on the red carpet in shock. The woman pointed her finger into the room, and Mao Lilan looked in the direction she was directed to, and saw Hebe lying in the middle of the queen-size bed, covered in blood.
“how come……”
Although she looked terrified, Xiaolan did not scream a second time.
While she was shocked, all the remaining people came one after another, including the male servant Ishimura who ran up from the second floor. Everyone on the ship gathered here.
“Mr. Hebe… Mr. Hebe was killed.”
Xiaolan swallowed and spoke slowly.
Xiao Ai stood in the gap between everyone’s thighs. When she saw the male servant Ishimura was about to go in, she hurriedly warned him.
“Don’t go in. This is a murder scene. Please don’t destroy the scene before the police arrive.”
Winette glanced at Ai. Although this was the correct judgment, she was a little surprised that Ai would be willing to participate in such a thing.
Xiaolan moved away from the crowd and took out her cell phone to contact the police.
“Captain, please find a place to dock.”
Winnett suggested to him.
The Japanese police were as quick as ever. Within twenty minutes, the familiar Officer Megure in orange clothes appeared at the scene.
“Xiaolan, isn’t Brother Maori here?”
When Inspector Megure arrived, he missed his brother Kogoro Mori when he saw Xiaolan. Although he was a plague god who caused crimes wherever he went, he could still play a big role after falling asleep and help them solve the case quickly.

“Dad is not here. He accepted an invitation from a friend and went to Gunma Prefecture to take a hot spring bath.”
After searching for Kogoro Mouri in vain, Inspector Megure started looking for Conan.
In his impression, Conan would burst into the scene soon, then point at somewhere and say “How weird”.
“Where’s the kid named Conan?”
“Conan went with his father.”
“Haha, that’s it.”

Megure was a little embarrassed. This was the same as before. Even if there was no plague god, the case would still happen as usual.
“Officer!” The forensic officer who was inspecting the scene came over, holding a bloody knife. “This must be the murder weapon, but…”
“Just say whatever you want to say.”
“The wounds on the victim’s body were really strange. The depth and angle of the cuts were inconsistent. In addition, the victim drank a lot of alcohol. We also detected the ingredients of sleeping pills in the victim’s body.”
“Sleeping pills…”
Inspector Megure walked into the scene and came to the deceased to observe. He saw that the deceased did not look overly panicked, and there were no signs of fighting around the scene. It can be basically inferred that the murderer killed Mr. Hebe after administering sleeping pills.
“Excuse me, who was the first person to discover the deceased?”
……
245 Physical Changes
“it’s me.”
The woman who had fallen to the ground earlier came to Megure. She was wearing a standard white-collar suit, a white shirt with a black suit and a pair of resin-framed glasses to correct her vision. She looked pale, as if she had not yet recovered from the shock she had just experienced.
“May I ask what the situation was like when you found the victim?”
“Yes,” Niwada Haruna answered with lingering fear, “I saw President Hebe lying on the bed, covered in blood. I didn’t go in, I just saw it from outside, and I was so scared that I couldn’t move.”
Megure and Takagi talked in low voices and learned each other’s names.
“Ms. Niwada, why did you come to the victim’s room at that time?”
“Because there are several documents that need the president’s confirmation,” she looked at Captain Taniguchi, “and the president has been resting in the room for quite a while because he drank a lot of wine. Captain Taniguchi also asked me to help inquire about the situation.”
Megure looked at everyone.
“Has the victim drunk a lot of alcohol?”
“Yes.” Sonoko stood up and said, “At that time, Mr. Hebe’s face was red, his words were a little frivolous, and he was not standing very steadily. It was that gentleman who helped him back to the room.”
The servant in question, Ishimura, stepped forward. He was dressed in a waiter’s uniform, with sweat on his forehead.
“That’s right.” Ishimura explained the situation. “Mr. Hebe was already very drunk at the time. While I was helping him back to his room, he kept complaining to me and saying some bad things about Miss Sophia. After I helped him back to the room, he asked me to help him prepare bait and other things, saying that he wanted to go fishing early tomorrow morning.”
“Fishing…”
Megure saw the fishing gear wrapped in plastic film in the corner of the room and did not doubt his words.
“After you brought the fishing gear over, what about Mr. Hebe?”
“I didn’t enter the room at that time. I don’t have the key to Mr. Hebe’s room, so I think Mr. Hebe must have taken it in himself.”
