Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin
Chapter 274 Mermaid Island (3)
"Wait a minute, what is that!" Hattori Heiji was about to walk down when he suddenly saw a swimming circle that shouldn't be here.
"Why is there a swimming circle here?" Yuan Shan and Ye looked at the swimming circle with some confusion. You must know that this is on the cliff. Even if you want to swim, you shouldn't come here.
"Miss Kotobumi committed suicide." Conan looked at the swimming circle that shouldn't be here, and Hattori Heiji looked at each other, and the two said in unison.
"The murderer should have put a rope around Miss Shoumei's neck, put it on a lifebuoy and floated it over the waterfall, and used the waterfall to hang Miss Shoumei. And this would not take much effort, and it can be done by either a man or a woman. Do it.”
Hearing this, several people at the scene were stunned. Imaguchi glanced at the mermaid tomb above and vaguely understood something.
Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan re-examined the scene and confirmed their suspicion. Miss Kotobumi did not commit suicide or accident, but was killed by someone. But there were too few things left at the scene, and they couldn't confirm who the murderer was.
If it was just an accident, just call the village police station, but now it's obviously a homicide, so you definitely need to call the police.
Mao Lilan went to the foot of the mountain to call the police, but soon she and Heye ran back with a trace of embarrassment on their faces. Everyone knew from the look on her face that something was definitely not going well.
"What's wrong, Lan?" Mouri Kogoro asked looking at the troubled Maori Lan.
"The wind and waves on the sea are too big now. The surrounding police can't get through now. They won't arrive until tomorrow. The police stations on the island are organized by the villagers themselves. They are similar to security guards and have no right to arrest people." Mao Lilan shook his head. Shake his head.
"Then we have no choice but to wait until tomorrow!" There was nothing anyone could do. When they came, the wind and waves on the island were not small, and now the wind and waves on the sea will only become worse.
"Then let's go back first. Don't we have to go to Miss Saori's house?" Imaguchi looked at the time and saw that it was getting late. If we don't go, Miss Saori's house will probably close soon. .
"Okay, let's go!"
Several people wanted to go to Miss Saori's house to inquire about the situation, but they met Miss Saori's father who was drunk and unconscious.
"Hello, wake up!" Hattori Heiji pushed Mr. Menxie who was sleeping in Masaka, but the other party didn't respond at all and didn't even move.
"Mr. Men Xie!"
"Forget it, let's come back tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to wake him up today!" The few people had no choice but to leave temporarily, planning to come back to him tomorrow to find out the situation.
"Why don't we go take a look at the longevity lady! I'm quite interested in the longevity lady."
According to legend, the longevity woman who ate mermaid meat and became immortal can be said to be the most curious person on the entire mermaid island.
……
"Wait a moment, I'll call grandma, she's resting now." Miss Junhui nodded to Mouri Kogoro and the others, holding something in her arms, and then said.
"Okay, sorry to trouble you!" Mouri Kogoro nodded. Several people sat in the reception room, waiting for the longevity lady, and looked at the house in front of them.
This house looks very old. It is a traditional Japanese-style house. It seems to be quite old. It is divided into upper and lower floors. The direction where Changshou Po's voice came from just now was obviously upstairs, and she didn't know that it would be inconvenient for an old man of such an age to live upstairs.
"Kazuye, can you lend me the dugong arrow you drew just now?" Imaguchi Kokoro and the others sat aside and whispered, Imaguchi Kokoro looked at the dugong arrow in Kazuye's hand with some curiosity.
"Okay, here you go!" Toyama and Ye happily handed the Dugong Arrow in their hands to Imaguchi.
Imaguchi took the dugong arrow and looked at it carefully. The arrow in front of him looked a little longer than the forearm. The whole body was made of wood. Only the arrowhead seemed to be made of iron. It felt heavy in the hand and looked more delicate.
Imaguchi looked at the dugong arrow in front of him and rubbed his forehead. This arrow looked so familiar!
Imaguchi felt that he should have seen it before, but he couldn't remember clearly, but if he had really seen it, it would have been when he was a child.
At that time, he was young and weak. His elder brother took him to many places. In addition to science, he also tried metaphysics. So if nothing else, I must have seen the dugong arrow. It's just because There are so many things that I may not remember them all.
While Imaguchi was thinking hard with the dugong arrow in his hand, the door on the side opened. Imaguchi looked up and found that the longevity woman was coming.
Imaguchi returned the dugong arrow in his hand to Kazuye, and sat there quietly looking at Changshou Po. He was far away from here before, and the lights outside were relatively dim, so he didn't feel anything yet.
But now, observing at such a close distance, Imaguchi realizes that Changshou Po is really too old. Her face is full of wrinkles and lifeless. She looks like an old man on the verge of death. She is not as immortal as the legend says.
Facing Changshou Po, Conan and the others had many doubts, such as whether she had really eaten mermaid meat, whether she had seen mermaids, etc.
However, Changshou Po just said something incomprehensible. Just when a few people wanted to continue asking, Changshou Po was called by Miss Jun Hui to take a bath, and they could only give up there.
Jinguchi felt a little regretful. Originally, he wanted to ask Changshou Po whether she remembered him and whether she still had memories of what happened 20 years ago, but unfortunately he had not had time to speak.
I have no choice but to find another chance next time, but the Changshou Granny in front of me doesn't seem scary. Jinguchi remembers that she was scared when she saw Changshou Granny before.
The next day, I don't know if it was because I slept too much yesterday, but Imaguchi woke up early in the morning.
After Imaguchi packed himself up, he saw that the others were not awake yet and did not call them, but he walked around the island to see if there was anything that could remind him of his memories.
Let him think of something without wandering around the island.
To be honest, Imaguchi still has some memories of his childhood, but because he was really young at the time, and he had visited many islands like this following in his brother's footsteps.
If there were no special signs, it would be difficult for Imaguchi to tell which one was which in his memory, especially with the passage of time over the years. Many things on the island were different from what he remembered. At least the last time he came here, the island was different. There are not so many stores.
After wandering around the island, Imaguchi saw all kinds of scenery, including green trees, clear water, beautiful mermaid portraits, unique specialty shops, and all kinds of delicious seafood.
After wandering around for a while, he still didn't think of anything, but his stomach was already bulging. Looking at the thick stack of leaflets in his hand, Imagochi couldn't help but rub his stomach with a wry smile. It seemed like they were Food for a few days has arrived again.
There are so many flyers here, you can find whatever you want to eat.
Imaguchi was carrying two bags full of food in his hands. When he returned to his accommodation, Xiaolan and the others were already up and chatting in the hall.
Imaguchi put the food he bought on the table and asked while opening the bag.
"Xiaolan, have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet, Imaguchi, you went out so early?" Mao Lilan was a little surprised when she saw the two bags of things in Imaguchi's hand. There are so many things!
