Chapter 109 I don't want to sleep at all Zzzzz

The sudden death of Nikaidou Yuji instantly escalated the severity of the situation.

Under Conan's questioning, several insiders remained silent for a long time, and finally explained the accident they had mentioned.

Two years ago, members of the yacht club were unfortunately caught in a storm while visiting a small island.

The island will be completely submerged when the tide rises. The only way to escape the waves is to return to the yacht. However, a group of people rushed to the boat in a panic. When they counted the number of people, they discovered that Reika Mitsui was not on the boat.

The seawater is rapidly covering the island, and it won't take long for the people on the island to be swept into the seawater.

Most of the people were silent and did not dare to mention going out to look for this matter. However, Nanao Yaeko felt that if she rushed over decisively, Yotsui Reika might still be saved, so she held a rubber boat and went there.

"Half a day later, the storm subsided and we found the eldest lady. She was rescued by Nikaido who was fishing alone in the nearby sea. But we could not find Yaeko. It was not until three days later that we saw her body floating in the sea.

On the sea.”

After being soaked in water for so many days, the body looked very unsightly. Even for a calm person like Rokuda Shoji, his voice gradually became weaker at this moment. He held the hot coffee in his hands, trying to suppress the coldness coming out of his back.

gas.

After two years, the memory has inevitably faded, and this is not a pleasant memory, so few people have said it in too much detail.

Conan worked hard to analyze the information contained in this past.

Mifune Takuya seemed to have some realization: "Perhaps something happened that we didn't know about at that time, which caused Miss Yotsui to want to silence Nikaido... My reasoning just now is indeed correct!"

...Just reasoning, you are obviously just guessing. Shiraishi cursed and leaned against the sofa and yawned.

Most of the others thought Mifune Takuya was joking. But regardless of whether the murderer was Yotsui Reika or not, in the absence of other clues, a few people could only try to find her first.

Conan actually had a bad premonition - although the figure he saw by the fountain was blurry, it should be a man, not Reika Yotsui.

Reika Yotsui has been missing for so long, and is probably dead and stuffed in a corner of the villa. Conan couldn't directly tell people to find the body, so he had to use a more euphemistic way of saying:

"Let's search the villa carefully again, this time like a hide-and-seek search, and we can't miss any corner."

General Rokuda nodded in agreement. In addition, he fully learned Nikaido's lesson: "The murderer may be hiding among us. To prevent being attacked, let's not be too spread out. Let's divide into two teams and supervise each other's search.

"

When the others drank the coffee in their cups and began to divide the search area, Shiraishi sat next to him and felt that something was not right about his situation.

...Why is he getting sleepier and sleepier?

Although it is indeed late now, for a player who stays up late, twelve o'clock in the evening is still like the dawn when the sun rises, and it is the time to get up and have fun.

Besides, he had been lying there pretending to sleep for so long, so he shouldn't have been so sleepy. He could hardly open his eyes.

Shiraishi forced himself to open the light screen and glanced at his health bar in the upper left corner. He was shocked to find that at some point, there was a small red box underneath.

After staring for two seconds, text appeared next to it:

[Poisoning - powerful sleeping pills]

"???"

This unscientific!

As a sleeping pill, this effect is too good. If any manufacturer can mass-produce it... No, no, no, now is not the time to think about this.

Shiraishi slapped his face twice, barely regaining consciousness from his sleepy and fuzzy thoughts.

While everyone else's attention was still focused on the floor plan of the villa, Shiraishi took out a few emergency antidote pills prepared by the Butterfly Ninja from his backpack and cracked them like jelly beans.

Antidote to snake venom...

Useless.

Antidote to parasites...

Still useless.

After taking five or six kinds of sleeping pills in a row, the buff of the sleeping pills was still there. A new buff [three-point poison] appeared, and the description text next to it told him that when the new buff was full, there would be unpredictable consequences.

Shiraishi could only stop talking.

...It’s too deceptive, so what kind of poison should sleeping pills be?

At this time, the first few people finally separated into teams.

Suzuki Sonoko was successfully assigned to a team with Shiraishi. She crossed her arms pitifully and was about to say with tears in her eyes, "You must protect me." But when she turned around, she saw Shiraishi sitting on the sofa with his face buried in his hands.

, looking like he wanted to sleep but was holding on and refused to fall.

...It looked so miserable. As soon as the lines that Suzuki Sonoko was preparing came to her mouth, she chewed them up and swallowed them.

She came closer, raised her hands and patted Shiraishi on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Go to sleep peacefully! I will definitely capture Yotsui Reika!" It seemed that she and Mifune Takuya had the same idea.

Baishi struggled to look at her, moved his mouth, and wanted to say that you should go and leave Mao Lilan for me. Unfortunately, he could no longer pronounce clear words.

Conan didn't understand what he was talking about at all, so he had to add his own understanding: "Don't force it, you have done enough, leave it to us next."

"……"That was not what I meant……

Suzuki Sonoko supported Shiraishi and slowly fell asleep on the sofa. She always felt that something was wrong: "...Why do you feel that Ritsuki is so reluctant to sleep this time? In the past, he always fell asleep at his word."

Mao Lilan thought of Kudo Shinichi's previous state when he was investigating the case, and had some understanding: "A case happened, he must feel uncomfortable."

"well……"

Granny Mi was left to look after Shiraishi, and the others began to search for Reika Yotsui as planned.

Behind them, in the shadow under the sofa, two fluorescent cat eyes were flickering.

After the group of people left, the black cat sighed in a very humane manner.

...At the critical moment, you still have to rely on yourself.

It's just midnight now, and the cat plus the mask can be used for a total of three and a half hours. I hope that the sleeping pills will have run out by then, or the case can be concluded smoothly...

The main body's sleep buff has not affected the mask, and Shiraishi is now very awake.
