"Wahhaha!" Genzo Okumura suddenly burst into laughter. "Hey, I said Mr. Detective, this is so funny. You are a step behind, late detective. Wahaha, I have completed the mission before you. This mission is one that you have tried every means to obstruct and keep blocking .Hey, do you know? Do you know the current situation of the Yucun family?" Yuanzao looked smug, shouting like a lunatic.Unfortunately, Zhizhi was not surprised at all. "You mean, they're being waterboarded in the basement of Hajimoto's mansion?" Wise asked sarcastically. "Uh, so, you, you..." Yuanzao was extremely embarrassed and at a loss for words.Big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead in a blink of an eye.

"Don't worry, Yucun father and son were rescued safely. They should have returned home by now, sitting in front of the warm stove, enjoying a belated supper." Genzao heard the words, his face distorted into a ball in despair.In an instant, his blood was gone, and on his forehead, which was swollen purple, the veins were trembling like worms.Zhizhi had never seen such a terrifying expression since he could remember. The disheartened devil held his head in his hands, and staggered back to the chair, his bloodshot eyes showed strange colors, as if he was thinking about his next plan.Unexpectedly, he slowly showed an expression of inexplicable peace of mind.Because of his over-excitement, he forgot about it for a moment.

"Mr. Detective," Genzao said while recalling, "Don't you remember what happened in Morisaki's bungalow? What happened in the bungalow? Well, let's think about it. Well, didn't you and I agree? Is it a good deal?" Wise remains unmoved. "Yeah. You took Miss Taeko as a hostage, so I lost." Hey, this guy was abnormally calm, Yuanzao became uneasy, but he didn't give in, instead he continued: "Look, what's the difference between then and now? Do you know where Taeko is now?" "Of course." Wise smiled back triumphantly, "You want to say that she was locked in the small room opposite, right? It's a pity, after I got the key earlier, I handed Miss Taeko two guns and asked her to come back from the Lock the door in the room. No matter who it is, even if your subordinates try to break in, first of all, they will not be able to open the door;

Yuanzao was silent for a long time in order to persuade himself to calm down.Facing a formidable enemy, he knew very well that he couldn't confuse himself, he had to reorganize his thinking and adopt the most foolproof countermeasures. "In the final analysis, what exactly do you want to do to me? You are only one person, and I have seven subordinates. Besides, this ship can sail anywhere, and Taeko is not the only hostage for me." The demon mocked sinisterly. Zhise pointed at Zhizhi, "My so-called hostage is you! Remember an old saying... moths fly to a flame, ha ha ha."

Genzao sneered in a low voice, approached the corner table, opened the drawer, and groped for a while, as if he wanted to take out something.When he found that he couldn't touch the item he wanted, he couldn't help but stared at Akechi in amazement. "You're looking for this, aren't you? Just in case, I'll borrow it while you're not paying attention. I also cherish life." Zhizhi took out a pistol from his pocket and aimed it at the opponent. "Bastard!" This time Yuanzao was pre-empted again, stomping his feet angrily, but he refused to easily pounce on the opponent with a gun.

"Okay, Miss Wen Dai, let's go out, we still have things to do, you say your father? Don't worry, just ask him to rest here for a while." Hearing wise words, Wen Dai got up in fear and walked towards the door. "Wen Dai, are you going to betray your father?" Yuan Zao stared at Wen Dai with burning eyes. "Father, I will go to jail with you. If the death penalty is imposed, I will not live. Please forgive my daughter." Wen Dai cried and left his father behind, Zhi Zhi then locked the door from the outside (the key was obtained with the pistol earlier).Even Genzao has no choice but to meet an opponent with a gun in his hand.

"Here, take it. If they try to do something to you, don't be shy, just shoot." Wisely handed the gun to Wen Dai.In order to successfully arrest Genzo's cadres, they came to the deck. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he bumped into a subordinate. "Isn't this three times? Where did you go? Everyone is looking for you." The other party caught a glimpse of Zhizhi's hazy figure through the dim light of the mast light, and couldn't help shouting. "Yeah, I'm here. Hurry up and ask everyone to come over, and say you found it three times."

The voice was different, and the instructions were abnormal, but the other party didn't notice the difference, and opened his mouth suddenly and shouted: "Hey, guys, three times over here!" Soon, seven ex-criminals gathered one by one.Among the seven drunk people, only one was more sober. He suddenly became suspicious of Zhizhi, and strode closer to take a look. "Three times you said? Uh, what does it look like three times. Who the hell is this guy?" "It's really not three times. Hey, who are you!" When they realized that there was a stranger standing in front of them, they shouted.

"I am Kogoro Akechi." Akechi replied calmly. "Wow!" Everyone was in an uproar, and immediately put on a guarded posture, not daring to be careless at all. "Once you make a move, I will shoot." Wen Dai walked out from behind Zhizhi with a gun in his hand. "Hey, isn't this Miss Wen Dai? What's going on?" A group of subordinates who hadn't fully woken up asked in astonishment. "It's nothing, I'm going to catch you all and throw them all into prison." Zhizhi replied with a hearty smile. The subordinate who was drinking and having fun a moment ago did not carry any self-defense weapons at all.At the critical moment, all the weapons were placed in the lounge at the stern.

Although no one spoke, everyone wanted to go back to the lounge by coincidence, so they retreated step by step calmly. Zhizhi and Wendai followed closely behind them. The one who was farthest from Sensei out of the seven finally touched the door of the lounge.He immediately opened the door and jumped in, and the rest of his accomplices rushed in one by one. Until this moment, Zhizhi still let them go back into the house.When the last one closed the door, he stepped into one leg with lightning speed, pushed the door open with all his strength, and rushed in together with Wen Dai. Thinking about Detective Ming Ming, how could he be so reckless today?Wouldn't this be in the arms of the enemy?Look, each of the seven people is holding a gun, aiming at Zhizhi and Wendai who are following.

"I seem to have fallen into your trap, seven guns. Oh, where are you going to aim? Forehead, chest, or my laughing mouth?" Akechi pointed to the mentioned parts in sequence.Shocked by their wise and fearless courage, the seven people froze for a while. "Shoot!" One of them shouted suddenly, and immediately pulled the trigger, and everyone came back to their senses and fired one after another. "Huh? That's weird. There's only a crackling sound in the air. Maybe it's out of bullets. Hahaha, how about trying again?" "Well……" "hateful!" Everyone cursed one after another, and kept pulling the trigger with a "click click" in surprise, but unfortunately no bullets were fired from the barrel. "Do you think I'm so stupid that I've been idle on the ship until now without preparing anything? It's really unconvincing. I have already made all the preparations for the battle, otherwise why would I want to rob a big ship by myself Woolen cloth?" Ah, what a detective with great powers, he dared to enter the tiger's den alone, and plotted to hijack the magician's steamboat. "Look, there are piles of hemp rope here, and I plan to tie you up one by one. I expected you to flee here, so I prepared the tools first." The seven desperadoes were all terrified and at a loss.The more wicked a person is, the easier it is for him to become disheartened and discouraged when he encounters an opponent with disparity in strength.The seven thieves were like frogs being stared at by a snake, their faces turned pale with fright. Gossip aside, under the threat of Wen Dai's gunpoint, they were all tied up in a blink of an eye, and they were tied up so that they could not move. Zhizhi locked the seven prisoners in the lounge, and went back to the cabin where the leader was held. The room seemed to be experiencing a terrible earthquake, and the door was like a sail full of wind, making hunting sounds.The enraged beast roared and tried to break through the encirclement. "Ah, what should I do?" Even though he knew it was his father, Wen Dai was still terrified and clung to Zhi Zhi's arm, burning with worry. "It's okay, let him hit you, and stop when you're tired. Don't worry." Is it really all right?Look, haven't the door panels in front of you been smashed?Crackling, crackling, Yuanzao was like a sleepy beast, with all his strength, like a broken bamboo, he finally broke a big hole in the door panel. In the blink of an eye, Genzo shot out of the hole like a fired bullet.Zhizhi didn't even have time to snatch the gun from Wen Dai's hand and take aim, the demon had already landed on the deck like a huge bat. It seems that he knows that he is no match for Zhizhi, and plans to jump into the sea and escape.Ah, if we let him escape this time, all our hard work so far will be in vain.At that time, the demon known as the magician will make a comeback, and it is unknown what terrible things will be planned.However, why is Sensei so calm?He was not in a hurry to chase the villain, but followed slowly. At this time, the east was pale, and the light was shining on the sea, and the scenery on the deck was also faintly visible. After Yuan Zao got on the deck, he threw himself on one side of the ship, as if he was going to jump into the sea.Unexpectedly, when he looked towards the sea, he couldn't help but exclaimed "ah". "Hahaha, how is it? It seems that I will win a big victory this time." The sound of wise jeers traveled far and echoed across the dawn sky. On the other side of the sea through the hazy morning fog, the large motorboats of the water police are gearing up for battle, and a large number of policemen hold their pistols high.If you take a closer look, you can also see the figure of the Police Department of the Metropolitan Police Department.Akechi had calculated the arrival of the motorboat well in advance, so even if the demon tried to escape, he would not panic.The devil in a dilemma looked around, and soon after, he let out a roar like a beast, turned to the open elevator not far from him, and rushed down the cabin. What is he going to do? Zhizhi was still calm and composed, with an attitude of indifference, and followed slowly. Genzo came to the pitch-black bilge, desperately lit a match, and the gasoline-soaked cloth burst into flames. Genzo raised the flaming cloth ball with one hand and threw it towards the box in the corner. "Ah, danger! There are explosives!" Wen Dai let out a piercing scream. The devil actually has a secret weapon.The desperate devil decided to die with the hated wise man, and the steamboat was blown up together, which is indeed the last fight of a generation of heroes. And yet—ah, what a pity.It was so ridiculous that no matter how long we waited, the dynamite, which was regarded as the secret weapon, failed to ignite even a small spark. "Do you think it will be ignored by me? Feel it, the dynamite has been soaked in water. Here, I poured a bucket of sea water on it earlier. Now, no matter how long you wait, the dynamite will not explode." Devil Detective delivered a coup de grace. "Ah, I... I..." Genzao tore his hair like crazy, then rushed to hug Akechi viciously, and uttered terrible words: "Please, kill me, kill me! I don't want to live and suffer this kind of humiliation!" "dad……" Seeing his father's unbearable tragedy, Wen Dai also burst into tears. It's so sad.However, even so, he could not easily spare the sinner in front of him, let alone end his life for no reason. "Look at your ugly appearance. A villain should act like a villain and accept the punishment of justice." Akechi exerted a little force, and Genzao was pushed to the bottom of the boat.After a while, Yuan Zuo jumped up as if he suddenly remembered something, rushed up the stairs with an almost crazy posture, and ran into his room. He fumbled around the shelf, and there it was, a small yellow medicine bottle.With this bottle of medicine, there is no need to live with humiliation. Genzao closed his eyes, drank the potion in one gulp, and slumped on the chair, staring blankly into the distance. "Oh, you still choose to take poison." Zhizhi walked in and taunted with a smile, "How, is it bitter? What kind of taste? Don't you find it strange? Does it taste like champagne?" When Yuanzao heard the words, he let out a weird laugh with a strange expression on his face.The situation was so hopeless that he had no room for surprise.The laughter didn't last long, and he suddenly covered his face with his hands and began to sob. "Ah, you are too vicious, you are so vicious, do I have to suffer this humiliating retribution? You actually replaced my last poison with champagne, you are simply a devil... a devil!" Even if he is wise, he can't help but feel a little regretful seeing Yuanzao's miserable state.Is this going too far?Although it is the duty, will it be too cruel?He even doubted himself. However, demons are demons after all.Soon, Yuanzao stopped crying.Not only that, but the veins on his face began to protrude again, he gasped heavily from his nose, and spit out the most vicious curse in the world with his mouth crooked. Hearing this, Zhizhi unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that what he did was indeed not wrong at all.The curse of the devil makes people more fearful and loathsome.
