Chapter 1091: The situation is very strange

~6 min read 1,002 words

"Attention all crew members," Suzuki Jirokichi's voice suddenly rang out over the ship's broadcast, "Gather at the restaurant immediately. I repeat, all crew members."

Akaso Kaze looked up but chose not to leave the bar.

His identity would certainly be viewed with suspicion, and taking the initiative to go over and become a hostage was not a good idea, plus the smoking room was still relatively safe for the time being.

Beep!

In the airship lounge, as the crew members were all being controlled in the restaurant on the other side, Ai hid behind Sonoko and quietly turned on the listening device she was carrying, transmitting the sound to Akaso Kaze; she looked just like a frightened little girl, which did not attract any attention.

"Hmph," having received confirmation from his subordinates in the restaurant opposite, the bearded leader looked coldly at the people in the lounge, "This airship has been hijacked by our Red Siamese Cats. Everyone, hand over your mobile phones!"

"I don't have a mobile phone." Ai, behind Sonoko, looked pitifully at the gunman approaching with a bag.

The gunman didn't care, took away Sonoko and Ran's phones, and turned to Uncle Mouri, who was still fast asleep.

"Dad! Wake up!" Ran anxiously tried to push the uncle awake, but the gunman, as if he had expected it, directly searched the uncle's arms for his phone and then went to find the others.

Nakamori Ginzo handed over his phone unwillingly and looked tightly at the bearded leader, asking, "What exactly do you want? Money, or the release of your accomplices who are currently serving time?!"

The bearded leader grinned and said, "To be honest with you, we have a deep grudge against the Suzuki Financial Group, especially against this old man."

Suzuki Jirokichi gritted his teeth as he faced the muzzle pointed at him by the leader, sweat appearing at the corners of his eyes: "I am willing to be a hostage, please let the others go!"

"Impossible, the airship must continue to fly to Osaka."

The leader snorted coldly, returned the phone to Nakamori, and forced him with a pistol, "Contact the police, and by the way, help me pass on a message: if you dare to act rashly, this ship will explode."

At the bar, Akaso Kaze listened silently while pressing his earpiece.

Besides the bombs, the other party seemed to have taken out a bottle of lethal bacteria to threaten them in person.

They had already planted bombs, yet they were still using the so-called lethal bacteria to threaten them.

And they actively requested to contact the police, as if they were afraid the police wouldn't know.

Up to now, everything was very strange; the trick with the lethal bacteria seemed to have some deeper meaning, rather than being used to threaten the people on the ship.

"We've already found three bombs," Conan contacted him through the Detective Badge, "There is one behind the smoking room. Strange, if it's as you said, and the bacteria are a smokescreen, why plant the bombs here? There are four bombs in total; it would make sense to plant them near the fuel tank, but here..."

"Dismantle the bombs first," Akaso Kaze interrupted, "The other party still has accomplices; they might come looking for you."

"Alright, then I'll leave the upper level to you." Conan said, looking at the elevator rising in front of him, noticing the bearded leader holding Suzuki Jirokichi hostage inside, and hurriedly took Ayumi and the others to hide.

The airship sailed steadily above the floating clouds, with the clear blue ocean beneath it; the residents of the small islands who saw the airship pass by did not notice anything unusual at all, but instead felt very envious.

Akaso Kaze listened in at the ship's bar while checking the airship's structural diagram, marking the enemies' current locations on it with a pen.

The captain, the chefs, and the bodyguards had all been gathered in the restaurant after the broadcast.

Two gunmen were guarding the hostages, and in the lounge, which was symmetrical to the restaurant, there were also two gunmen besides the leader.

As for the remaining two, one gunman was guarding the sky observation deck, and one had taken over the piloting of the airship, but the flight direction had not changed, still heading straight toward Osaka.

However, why would they leave a gunman at the sky observation deck?

According to the information provided by Conan, just now, after the leader held the old man Suzuki Jirokichi hostage and went up to take the gem "Lady of the Sky," the other party remained there.

0.............

If it were to guard against the police boarding the ship, they should have gone to the top of the airship to keep watch.

Although the transparent roof on the sky observation deck could be opened, it was not a good defensive position.

Da-da.

Footsteps sounded in the corridor outside, and two gunmen brought the knocked-out Nippon TV producer Mizukawa toward the bar.

Akaso Kaze put away the diagram and used magic to hide his figure.

He had just heard the commotion in the lounge, saying that Mizukawa had also gone to the smoking room, and by now, his palms had developed a rash; after being knocked out by the leader, he was thrown into the smoking room.

It seems the smoking room was no longer very safe either.

After the two gunmen left, Akaso Kaze also followed down the stairs, reaching the deck where the medical room was located.

Through the corridor, he could see that the door to the medical room was not closed tightly, and Fujioka Takamichi's voice could be heard from inside, seemingly in a phone conversation with that leader.

Akaso Kaze quietly approached the medical room and heard Fujioka laugh: "Yes, there is a waiter here that I tied up. You guys over there... You didn't see the Onmyoji?! Impossible, he must still be somewhere on this airship!" Tu. ===== CHAPTER 1093 =====
