"Is there a morgue for dead people on this ship?" Qin Zhibo turned to the chef who led the way to the freezer and asked.

The chef was confused and nodded slightly, "It seems there is... but it's still in the cargo hold area further down..."

Everyone immediately followed the chef and continued running to the lower cargo hold.

There is a separate storage room at the edge of the cargo hold. The door frame of the storage room has the words "Morgue" on it.

Everyone was a little surprised that there was such a place on the ship.

How could there be a need for a morgue on the ship?

Qin Zhibo called a staff member in charge of the cargo hold and asked him to open the coffin containing the dead person on the grounds that he suspected someone was hidden inside.

Although the staff was a little surprised, they still took out the key, opened the low-temperature freezer, and took out the mortuary coffin inside.

"It's so heavy..."

Opening the lid of the coffin, Cheng Shi was curled up on his side inside. The continuous low temperature had made him unconscious, but his body was still shivering.

"Found it!"

Qin Zhibo took the person out of the coffin and quickly sent him to the infirmary.

Ten minutes later, in the warm quilt of the infirmary, Cheng Shi slowly opened her eyes and woke up.

"Mr. Qin..."

"Everyone……"

Qin Zhibo sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "How are you now?"

"I feel much better..." Chengshi's voice was still weak.

The ship's doctor sat next to him and said: "This is hypothermia caused by hypothermia. As long as you keep your body warm and rest for a while, you will be full of energy."

Mao Lilan turned to the doctor and thanked him.

"Mr. Qin, I'm thirsty..."

Cheng Shi's lips were pale from the cold and slightly chapped.

Qin Zhibo helped Chengshi sit up, took a glass of warm water from Yuanzi, and delivered it to Chengshi's hand.

"Who is pulling this prank?"

Hearing the crew member responsible for managing the cargo hold characterize the incident like this, Mouri Kogoro next to him turned his head and spoke seriously.

"mischief?"

"This is not a prank, in my opinion it is simply an attempted murder..."

After speaking, Maori Kogoro turned to look at Qin Zhibo.

But Qin Zhibo did not characterize the incident immediately. Instead, he asked Chengshi what happened after he had finished drinking water.

Cheng Shi held the water glass in both hands, recalling what just happened in his mind.

"I originally went to the dock to look for Xiaolan, but suddenly someone attacked me from behind, and then I fainted..."

"In other words, you didn't see the attacker's appearance?" Qin Zhibo asked.

"Hmm..." Cheng Shi nodded, but then added: "But I found a strange big iron box in the dock. There seems to be something scary in that iron box..."

Something scary?

Conan put his hands in his pockets, with a somewhat doubtful look in his eyes.

Qin Zhibo continued to ask: "Do you still remember that time?"

"Well, there are almost 10 minutes left before the end of hide-and-seek, which is... 10:20."

…

In order to verify the big iron box that he said and to find clues for the attack, Qin Zhibo, Conan, and Mouri Kogoro left the infirmary and went to the dock.

The three of them walked down the steps while analyzing the current situation.

Mouri Kogoro muttered in a rough voice, "I see, this place is very close to the morgue, so I hid the person there..."

Conan also analyzed: "However, the crew member who manages the cargo hold said that the key to the morgue is rarely used, so it is usually kept in the management office and anyone can get it..."

"In this way, the scope will be wider."

"And why was Dr. Chengshi attacked?"

Qin Zhibo looked calm and was thinking about the reason.

The three of them came to the place Cheng Shi mentioned, a corner of the dock, but they did not see the "big iron box" he mentioned.

"There is no box here..." Mouri Kogoro put his hands in his pockets and concluded at a glance.

Qin Zhibo squatted down and looked at the ground carefully, and saw subtle drag marks on the dark green rubber floor.

The intervals between these drag marks appear to form a square, but the marks are only the first small piece and cannot reveal the whereabouts of the iron box.

Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about who might move the iron box, the system suddenly sent a prompt.

[Obtain the main mission—Things in the Box]

[Task content: Detect the contents of the iron box]

[Task requirements: Time limit is 24 hours, and the number of survivors on the ship must reach 400]

[Task reward: 10,000 general skill proficiency]

Looking at the sudden main mission, Qin Zhibo fell into a state of confusion.

As we all know, things that can trigger main quests are usually mysterious.

This shows that there is indeed something in the big iron box that Cheng Shi found that cannot be explained by human common sense.

Among the mission requirements, the number of survivors on the ship reached 400, which shows that this thing is dangerous.

As far as I know, there are more than 800 people on board the "Aphrodite" including tourists and crew members.

The system will not put forward task goals and requirements for no reason.

Reaching the survival requirement of 400 people means that according to the system's judgment, at least half of the people on the ship will die within the next 24 hours.

And if you do nothing, everyone on the ship will die...

What kind of crisis is it?

The ship sank?

No, even if the ship hit an iceberg like the Titanic, it would not be able to cause such a huge death.

At the same time, Conan, who had the advantage of height, also discovered drag marks on the rubber floor.

He originally planned to remind Maori Kogoro as usual, but when he saw that Qin Zhibo had also discovered these traces, there was no need to tell Maori Kogoro.

Anyway, as long as Qin Zhibo is here, this uncle will have no effect.

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri saw something near the exit of the dock.

He walked over and picked it up and found that it was an iron fan.

"Eh?"

"I seem to have seen this iron fan somewhere?"

Qin Zhibo also came over at this time, took the iron fan and looked at it carefully.

Although it is made of iron, the shape is very delicate, and the tassels on the fantail are also quite particular, making it look valuable.

Open the fan and you will see a beautiful ancient painting and inscription.

"This seems to be Chairman Yashiro's most precious iron fan."

Seeing this fan, Mouri Kogoro, who was familiar with the preferences of most wealthy people in Tokyo, immediately recognized it.

Qin Zhibo closed the fan, waved it and tried the feel.

The iron fan is very powerful and can knock someone unconscious from behind.

However, if Chairman Yashiro attacked Narumi, he would not be stupid enough to leave his personal belongings here.

But now that I have found this fan, I must find the owner of the fan no matter what.

He is also the owner of this ship, the Eighth Generation Chairman.

…

Because when they were chatting before, Qin Zhibo and Mouri Kogoro accidentally learned the room number of Yashiro and his daughter from Sister Rei.

So now the three of them went straight to room 604 in the cabin area.

Arriving at the door of the room, Qin Zhibo rang the doorbell several times and waited for a response from inside.

At this moment, a crew member ran over and said that the captain had followed the detective's instructions and called the police on land.

Qin Zhibo thought for a moment. Although he was not sure who was coming, once he boarded the ship, it would be equivalent to boarding the pirate ship and becoming a member of the predetermined sacrifice list.

The crew member turned around and saw the room number at this time, and wondered: "Huh? This seems to be the room of President Yashiro..."
