Ye Gengyi ignored Hui Yuan Ai's lame excuse, but reached out and pulled her and Conan behind him, staring at the window:

"come out!"

"Swipe..."

The window of the reception room was open.

Kogoro Mori, who looked drunk, suddenly stood up from under the wall: "Hey, did you scare you?"

"..."

Ye Gengyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and the nano-robots flowing under the body surface gradually fell silent, and he greeted calmly:

"Mr. Molly, why are you here?"

"Everyone is rumored that someone found a shark in the sea, so after I finished drinking, I stopped by the hospital to have a look..."

While speaking, Kogoro Mori stepped on the window frame and was about to turn in, but he accidentally fell to the ground.

So, it's because I'm worried about my daughter who went diving...

As soon as Ye Geng read the subtext of this sentence, he walked to the window, and while helping the tool man, he glanced at the grass outside the window.

After confirming that there was indeed a large area of ​​indentation under the window, I suddenly understood what had just happened.

The feeling is that the famous detective did not come in directly when he came here, but rested on the grass for a while.

Therefore, when I adjusted the hidden earphones, I didn't set the frequency of the noise in detail, which caused me to mistakenly think that some master lurked into their very close range at the previous moment.

Hmm... After all, with the current technology, there is no way to replace the entire cochlea with a purely mechanical structure. It is not comparable to the information provided by bone conduction, and there will be subtle mistakes, which cannot be avoided.

"Oh, it hurts...it hurts me to death, no, I'm going to be hospitalized..."

Mori Kogoro continued to talk drunk, leaving Conan speechless.

Dare you not to be so embarrassing in front of Brother Gengyi, I, a real detective, really lose face!

He said with half-moon eyes:

"Uncle, stop making trouble! A case has occurred!"

"The case?!" Mori Kogoro's cloudy eyes cleared up a bit.

"yes."

Conan hurriedly recounted the shark attack on a treasure hunter.

…

The lobby of the hospital.

Everyone anxiously waiting for the result of the operation saw the red light in the operating room go off, and all turned their heads to look over there.

Not long after, the doctor in charge of the operation came out with a serious face, announcing the fact that the rescue was ineffective:

"Vital organs were seriously injured, coupled with excessive blood loss, I have tried my best, please forgive me."

"hateful!"

The two treasure hunters gritted their teeth and whispered, but they didn't appear to be making a scene as ordinary people imagined. Instead, they seemed to be about to leave.

"How did this happen, there was a fatal accident..."

Police officer Shangping with thinning hair was even more annoyed.

In the event of safety accidents for tourists, the official agencies of their entire island have unshirkable responsibilities.

"No, this is not an accident, but a deliberate murder!"

Mori Kogoro pushed open the door of the consulting room and came out. After taking out the blood bag hidden in the buoyancy suit, he directly asked the two treasure hunters if they had any enemies, so as to understand the hidden truth behind this incident. .

The two hesitated and couldn't speak.

Let people know at a glance that they must be hiding some ulterior secrets.

Seeing this, police officer Shangping hurriedly borrowed the phone number from the hospital and contacted the Metropolitan Police Department to report the situation.

Mori Kogoro also used his identity as a famous detective to remind the two that if they did not tell the truth, they had to stay in the hotel where they were staying and wait for follow-up investigations before the police arrived.

The situation is fairly stable.

It's a pity that the diving suit and blood bag didn't trigger the imprint...

Here, Ye Gengyi quickly thought about two possibilities.

First, the murderer was among the two treasure hunters, and the purpose of killing his companions was most likely to be an uneven distribution of spoils, leading to an escalation of the conflict...

But in this way, it doesn't make sense for them to save people from the sea.

Second, that is the revenge of other enemies, just to put blood packs in the opponent's buoyancy suit, at least there must be a chance to contact...

By the way, when they left the hotel, they did not carry relevant diving equipment in their hands.

Unless, there is another storage location...

Thinking of this, Ye Geng said directly to Himiko Yamaguchi:

"Are their diving suits also rented and sold by your store?"

Conan looked over and added, "Also...where are the diving equipment normally placed?"

"Stuff is their own."

Kimiko Yamaguchi says:

"If you don't usually dive, you will leave it in our store, because you only need to pay the consignment fee, and you can enjoy our service of filling the oxygen tank for free..."

"When Elder Sister Xiaolan and the others go to return the diving suit later, can we go together?" Conan asked.

"Well... of course." Yamaguchi Kimiko nodded in response.

There are sharks in the sea.

Diving is naturally a no-brainer.

On the hospital side, the two treasure hunters were watched by Mori Kogoro, police officer Shanghei, and a few enthusiastic islanders. It is expected that there will be no problems in a short time.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Gengyi, Haibara Ai, and Conan rode bicycles again and came to this diving shop called Grotto.

The owner of the store, Ma Yuan Qianxia, ​​was cleaning. Seeing everyone coming back, he casually asked about the situation of the treasure hunter.

After learning that the other party had died due to ineffective rescue, he just murmured "that's it" and didn't continue.

Conan stayed in the store, ready to wait for Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko to change their clothes and enter the storage room to find clues.

Outside the shop, Hui Yuan Ai followed Ye Gengyi to the backyard where the utensils were washed, and checked the footprints on the ground.

"Did you find anything?" Hui Yuanai was too lazy to compare with professionals in this aspect, so he asked the result directly.

"The shoe size is 35, ordinary plastic soles, vertical shading, because the ground is very wet, the height and weight cannot be completely judged by the depth of the footprints, it is difficult to pinpoint who the target is with this clue, um... probably that much. "Ye Gengyi said.

"Oh..." Hui Yuanai blinked, "Why don't you go to the storage room again? Edogawa is waiting there."

"There are some things that children can do, but it would be strange for me to do them..."

Ye Gengyi took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the footprints on the ground:

"So let the little detective do the clues over there."

"Well…"

Haibara Ai was startled, and began to imagine that after Mori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko changed their diving suits, Genichi went straight into the storage room and rummaged through it, sweating uncontrollably.

Hmm...it's really weird.

The two circled around and returned to the dive shop.

I just heard Conan asking Ma Yuanqianxia about the shop being on duty at night.

"You're playing a detective game..."

Ma Yuanqianxia smiled and said:

"My family lives in the back, and Himiko lives in an apartment near the port. Because there are no thieves on the island, not only is there no one on duty in the shop at night, there is even no need to lock the door."

"Is that so..." Conan was depressed.

The scope of suspicion is too wide. It can be said that no matter who it is, it can sneak in and put the blood bag in the buoyancy suit.

"Conversely, everyone who lives here should know that you don't have the habit of locking your doors, right?"

Ye Geng asked abruptly.

And silently added in his heart, and he was the kind of person who would not arouse suspicion even if he was wandering around at night.

When Conan was reminded like this, he obviously thought of this too. He secretly felt ashamed of his puzzle-solving thinking. After being half a beat slower than Brother Geng, he immediately raised his head and stared at the proprietress with hopeful eyes, saying:

"Excuse me, did the two of you leave the store together last night?"

"Uh... No, I went shopping in the town yesterday and left earlier."

As Ma Yuanqianxia was talking, she happened to see three girls coming out of the storage room, and asked directly:

"Ximiko, were you the one who closed the shop last night?"

"Yeah? What's wrong?"

Yamaguchi Himiko was full of doubts.

Ma Yuan Qianxia spread her hands, looked at Ye Gengyi and Conan, and said:

"Because the two of them seem to be investigating who tampered with the buoyancy suit..."

"All right."

Kimiko Yamaguchi says:

"It was indeed me who closed the door last night~lightnovelpub.net~ I was the one who opened the door this morning. However, since we have never had the habit of locking the door, anyone may come in and make a move."

Sure enough, this is the result...

In this regard, a certain professor surnamed Ye did not feel any surprise.

From the moment he saw Ma Yuan Qianxia cleaning, he considered this, so he took the initiative to look for clues outside the store.

It's a pity that there are no cameras installed here, and there are no footprints or traces that are particularly noteworthy on the land outside.

It turns out that the door is not locked... Let's investigate later.
