Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1366: The Ruthless Person at the Investigation Point

"Ms. Tsujimoto, did you report your itinerary yesterday, or did you write it down in a notebook that was lost for a while..."

In response to Qin Zhibo's question, the secretary raised his head and thought for a moment before replying, "I haven't lost my work notes... but I did confirm today's schedule with the chairman and the president in the room after the dinner yesterday."

"By the way, speaking of losing things, I remembered one thing..."

"Just half a month ago, the eighth president was interviewed on this ship. The key to the room was lost, but it was found again soon."

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhibo and Conan's expressions suddenly became serious.

"Whose interview is this?"

"It's Mr. Kusaka Hirosei."

Kusaka Hironari is the yellow-haired man who kicked Conan yesterday and refused to apologize.

Although he looks a bit frivolous, he is actually a professional screenwriter.

"Why does Kusaka Guangcheng want to interview the eighth president?" Qin Zhibo asked.

The secretary replied, "Because Mr. Kusaka intends to use this 'Aphrodite' as a prototype in his new story, he wants the eighth president to provide some inspiration."

"For this reason, Mr. Kusaka came to interview me several times..."

At this time, the confused Inspector Megure finally couldn't help but ask, "Wait a minute! Let me first figure out who this Mr. Kusaka is?"

Qin Zhibo explained: "It's a screenwriter. I met him at the dinner last night..."

Before Qin Zhibo could finish his words, Conan, who was standing at a lower position, took the initiative to express his suspicions.

"But that big brother left before the dessert. If he had copied the room key, he could have sneaked into the president's room and installed a bug at this time."

"In this case, the eighth president's schedule will be exposed."

Qin Zhibo: "..."

When Megure heard that there was a specific target for investigation, he immediately slammed the table and gave an order.

"Okay, let's go meet that Mr. Kusaka now."

Seeing the police taking action, Conan's mouth curled up, revealing a somewhat evil smile.

Qin Zhibo looked down and saw Conan's smile, feeling a little embarrassed.

  Why did that guy have to offend Conan when there were so many people he could offend?

……

Everyone came to the door of Kusaka Hironari's room, and Megure, who was in the lead, knocked on the door.

After a few seconds, a voice came from behind the door.

"Who?"

"Is that Mr. Kusaka?"

"Yes……"

"We are the police, and we have something to ask you."

Megure did not use the excuse of opening the door to check the water meter, but directly stated his identity.

"police?"

"coming……"

The door of the room opened and Kusaka Hironari, dressed in casual clothes, appeared at the door.

But when Qin Zhibo saw him for the first time, his pupils dilated instantly.

This guy actually has a survey point on his head...

Qin Zhibo was also a little confused when he looked at the white light above Rixia Guangcheng's head.

This is the first time I see someone holding a survey point on his head.

Then I'm welcome...

【Survey√】

[The color of this hair is a little different]

Qin Zhibo looked carefully at the hair ends where the investigation point was, and sure enough, there was a color difference from the surrounding yellow hair.

Although I'm not sure what's going on with the color difference, but there are investigation points on him, so it's basically the criminal who has not escaped...

Here, the police and detective went straight to the point and told Kusaka Hironari the reason for their visit.

The current chain of clues is just speculation and there is no evidence, so Kusaka Hironari can only try to prove his innocence.

If he can't prove it, then it's time to take the next step.

However, after learning that he was suspected, Kusaka Hironari did not panic. Instead, he lay calmly in the armchair and spoke with a smile.

"I see. A bug..."

"As expected of the famous detective Qin Zhibo, he can come up with such a fantastic plan."

Megure corrected: "No, it was Conan who proposed this plan. We just integrated the existing clues."

Hearing that he was suspected by an elementary school student, Kusaka Hironari was stunned for a moment, but then he regained his composure.

"Really? Unfortunately, your reasoning is wrong..."

"At around 10:15 this morning, I was in my room, calling Miwako to discuss something."

Maori Kogoro's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "Is the Miwako you're talking about the ship designer?"

"Yeah." Kusaka Hironari raised his hand and pointed to the landline phone on the table in front of him. "Because you can't use mobile phones at sea, I used this phone the whole time."

Megure asked, "How long did you talk on the phone?"

"Let me think about it..."

Kusaka Hiroshige raised his head, thinking, and then answered: "It started at 10:00 in the morning and lasted about 30 minutes..."

"I think if I check the call records, I can find out the correct time, right?"

"So what was the content of the conversation? Can you tell me if it's convenient?" Megure still didn't give up and continued to ask.

Kusaka Hironari remained calm as he opened his laptop and showed his business plan.

Qin Zhibo's eyes changed slightly when he saw the computer screen light up.

"As you know, I'm a screenwriter, and I just happened to be writing a certain part of my project, so I wanted to ask her opinion."

When Megure heard this, his eyes dimmed for a moment, and he could only give up.

The other party's answer was flawless and there was no trace of flaw.

The next step is to find the call records and the other party of the call to confirm the alibi.

But at this moment, Qin Zhibo suddenly asked.

"Can you tell us what your project plan is about?"

"Ah?" Kusaka Hironari glanced at him impatiently, "What does this have to do with the case?"

Qin Zhibo smiled slightly and was not angry.

"In fact, you may have heard that I am also a half-writer. I have published "Crazy Mountains" in Literary Times before..."

"If you want someone to give you some advice on your project, maybe I can help."

"Or are you worried or afraid of something?"

Qin Zhibo's words made Kusaka Hiroshige frown slightly, and he said with a little dissatisfaction: "What should I be afraid of?"

"It's just that my script is quite long, and I'm afraid it will delay your time to solve the case..."

Qin Zhibo shook his head calmly, "It doesn't matter, Officer Megure and the others can continue their investigation..."

Having said that, Kusaka Hironari had no reason to refuse.

Conan looked up at Qin Zhibo, wondering what the latter was planning.

But he knew that Qin Zhibo would definitely not do anything meaningless.

"Uncle Qin, I want to stay too!"

"You can not."

Before Conan could even approach him shamelessly, Qin Zhibo rejected him. "This is a discussion between writers. You should just do what a child should do."

Conan: "..."

  Don’t you know whether I am a child or not?

Maori Kogoro also stood up from the sofa at this time and said to Conan in a hoarse voice: "We don't need you here, go back to Xiaolan and don't delay our investigation..."

Without Qin Zhibo's support, Conan was ruthlessly kicked out of the official investigation team.

Conan drooped his eyelids helplessly. This was really a case of using people to move forward and not using people to move backward.

In this way, Conan reluctantly followed Megure and Maori Kogoro out of Kusaka Hironari's room.

The room quickly became silent, with only Qin Zhibo and Kusaka Guangcheng left.

Kusaka Hironari turned his chair and said to Qin Zhibo, "Crazy Mountains... I have read this story. It is well written and does have a sense of 'craziness'."

"Thank you for the compliment." Qin Zhibo responded indifferently.

Then, Kusaka Hironari opened the plan on his laptop and began to introduce it.

"This story tells the story of a protagonist named Nanami Okazaki who has loved the sea since she was a child and works hard on a luxury cruise ship after growing up..."

Risaka Guangcheng was comparing the contents on the laptop and was about to introduce it word by word when he was interrupted by Qin Zhibo.

"Wait a moment……"

"Since you have an electronic version of the manuscript, why don't you let me take a look at it myself? This way you can save yourself the trouble of introducing it."

Kusaka Hironari narrowed his eyes and thought for a few seconds.

"Okay...but you have to watch it within my sight."

"That's natural."

Kusaka Guangcheng stood up from his chair and Qin Zhibo sat over.

The document on the computer is already open, just slide the mouse wheel and scroll down.

Kusaka Hironari sat on the sofa in the back, his arms around his shoulders, quietly looking at the computer screen.

Although there is some distance between them, you can still see it clearly as long as you switch documents or switch to the computer desktop.

Qin Zhibo felt the gaze from behind and realized that it would not be that easy.

In fact, he took the initiative to stay and discuss the TV series project with Kusaka Hironari because he also saw the investigation point on Kusaka Hironari's computer.

Qin Zhibo didn't see it when he first entered the room.

But when Kusaka Guangcheng opened the computer and showed it to the police, the white highlighted investigation points suddenly appeared.

This suggests that the case is not about the laptop itself, but about what is inside it.

In addition, there was still no clue about the problem of the big iron box, so Qin Zhibo thought that he might be able to find some useful clues.

So, Qin Zhibo used the excuse of looking at the project plan, but his real purpose was actually to check his computer.

However, Kusaka Guangcheng was also very alert and was always watching from the side and behind, so it was unlikely that he would do anything out of line.

But this doesn't mean there is no solution...

Qin Zhibo slid the mouse wheel nonchalantly while taking out a USB flash drive from his right hand.

At this time, Kusaka Hironari's attention was all on the computer screen, observing whether Qin Zhibo switched pages, and he didn't notice the subtle movements of the latter's hands at all.

Just like that, Qin Zhibo plugged the USB drive into the USB port of the computer.

After waiting for a few seconds, a Q version of Hiroki Sawada appeared in the lower right corner of the computer screen.

Qin Zhibo didn't say anything, but his eyes moved.

Hiroki Sawada also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere by checking the computer camera, so he didn't say anything.

He even took the initiative to hide his Q version image.

Seeing that Sawada Hiroki had understood what he meant, Qin Zhibo said calmly: "It looks like there is a lot of content..."

"Of course, because this is a TV series project." Kusaka Hironari replied coldly, hugging his shoulders from behind.

"Can I take a copy back to read privately?"

Kusaka Hironari immediately gave a negative answer, "No."

"Don't worry, I guarantee with my integrity that I will never tell anyone..."

"That won't work either." Kusaka Hironari gradually became impatient, "If you want to see it, watch it here."

"It seems there is no other way. I can only read all the documents here..."

Qin Zhibo's tone was somewhat regretful, and his muttered complaints did not seem to concern Hikaru Osaka.

However, the same content has a different meaning when it is passed on to Hiroki Sawada.

He understood Qin Zhibo's need, which was to copy all the document files on the computer, so he quietly copied them in the background.

Since Hiroki Sawada can directly call the system's lowest-level logic when operating the computer, there will be no display on the computer screen.

Qin Zhibo continued to browse the project plan calmly under the supervision of Risaka Guangcheng.

Ten minutes later, the Q version of Hiroki Sawada half showed his head from under the screen and made an "OK" gesture to Qin Zhibo.

Seeing this, Qin Zhibo pulled out the USB drive.

"I see……"

“It does seem like an inspirational story.”

Qin Zhibo stood up from his chair and said to Kusaka Guangcheng: "Starting out as a waiter on a luxury cruise ship and working your way up from the bottom is indeed quite novel for the audience..."

"But I wonder if it would be more realistic to start as a crew member and eventually become a captain step by step?"

Qin Zhibo was not interested in Kusaka Guangcheng's plan, but he still took a quick look at it.

Kusaka Hironari had a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and replied stubbornly: "From a waiter to a captain, this way there will be enough plot tension, and the contrast between the beginning and the end will be stronger."

"Oh……"

Qin Zhibo did not argue with him, "Of course this is just my opinion, you can just write according to your own ideas."

Anyway, there is no chance for it to be released...

"That's it for now, I look forward to your excellent work."

Qin Zhibo left Kusaka Guangcheng's room and quickly returned to his own room. He took out the [Laptop] he had won in the lottery from the prop column and plugged the USB drive into it.

Hiroki Sawada has packaged the data copied from Hironari Kusaka's computer and classified the contents.

Most of the documents are records of inspiration for various types of works, as well as content that has already been created.

However, among them, there is a book called "The Truth about the Sinking of the First Yashiro Maru - Kusaka Hiroseri".

amount……

Is it so direct?

It was the first time that Qin Zhibo saw the "truth" presented in the form of a signed document.

The first generation Yashiro Maru was a cargo ship built by the Yashiro Group. It hit an iceberg 15 years ago and eventually sank in the vast Atlantic Ocean.

Among them, the deputy captain Hai Teng Du, who commanded a large number of crew members to survive the accident, is the current captain of the "Aphrodite".

At the dinner yesterday, Kusaka Hironari was very disdainful of this matter.

Qin Zhibo moved the mouse and clicked on the content in the document.

It turned out that 15 years ago, the Yashiro Group had a major financial deficit and was facing bankruptcy at any time.

Therefore, under the planning of the eighth-generation president, Takae Yashiro and Hideto Yashiro, they chose to make a fortune by means of insurance fraud.

They found the then deputy captain Kaito Wataru and decided to cause an accident to the Yashiro Maru cargo ship so as to defraud insurance.

At that time, Captain Okita of the Yashiro Maru was also designed to be silenced because he often proposed to the head office to improve the welfare benefits of the crew.

Kusaka Hironari's father was also killed because he was a loyal subordinate of Captain Okita.
