"Come on, Conan, you were way too fast. Couldn't you wait for me?"
After Heiji Hattori caught up, he could not help saying so.
"You were too slow, and we're already out of time." Conan shook his head slightly at Heiji Hattori, then pointed at the fallen guards and the missing Todano.
Upon carefully checking the people who had been guarding Todano, they found that they were not dead, merely knocked unconscious.
"Luckily, they were only knocked out. Let's look for Todano. Oh, and remember to notify the captain," Conan said to Heiji Hattori.
The two of them then went to inform the captain. The captain's expression abruptly changed upon hearing the news, but he did not make it public and instead began a private search.
The private search quickly found Todano, but all they found was Todano's corpse.
"Although we'd already guessed it, I didn't expect him to really be dead." Heiji Hattori clenched his fists as he spoke.
When they had thought of Todano earlier, they had felt that he might have met with misfortune. Now that they had seen it for themselves, Todano really was dead.
There was no need to search any further. The killers had to be Gin and Vodka from the Black Organization. The key problem was that those two simply could not be found.
When Heiji Hattori had asked the captain to search earlier, they had not found Gin or Vodka. In fact, among those who had boarded the ship, there had not even been anyone matching their descriptions.
And now, it was even more impossible to find Gin and Vodka, because they had already left.
They had already departed from this ship. No matter how capable Heiji Hattori and Conan were, there was absolutely no way they could find Gin and Vodka.
