Ultimately, there were too few clues left on the ship, so they were unable to determine who the murderer was.
On top of that, one lifeboat was missing, so the preliminary conclusion was that the murderer had left the cruise ship after committing the crime.
Although Conan was somewhat concerned about this, even Sato was powerless to do anything, which made him feel a little better.
Still, no matter what, knowing that the murderer was no longer on the ship put everyone far more at ease.
And so, amid that atmosphere, the cruise ship docked in Tokyo. Miss Natsumi had rented cars and brought everyone to her castle in the suburbs...
The vehicles steadily climbed the mountain road, and before long, an ancient castle full of German-style architecture came into view.
However, upon arriving at the castle, Kogoro Mouri and the others were surprised and taken aback by the large crowd gathered in front of it.
On one side were around ten disabled people dressed in expedition gear. On the other were four disabled people in police uniforms. Conan had seen the latter four before—they were the officers responsible for protection who had passed out with everyone else during the previous attempt to capture Kaito Kid.
"What is this...?"
Kogoro Mouri looked at the sudden appearance of this whole crowd, surprise written across his face.
"These are volunteers from the Disabled Persons Association. They wanted to explore my castle and film it this time, hoping to make a promotional video that would inspire disabled people everywhere to strive for self-improvement."
After getting out of the car, Natsumi introduced them to Kogoro Mouri and the others.
The ten people led by Hattori Kogoro nodded with smiles on their faces. However, because Xu Yue was present, their smiles looked rather forced.
