Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin

Chapter 276 Mermaid Island (5)

"If you feel too guilty, why don't you lend me your dugong arrow." Imago suddenly thought of something and stretched out his hand with a smile.

Kazuye was stunned for a moment, struggled to take out the Dugong Arrow, and finally put it in Imaguchi Heart's hand.

Seeing He Ye being so reluctant to leave, Jinkou laughed heartily.

"Don't worry, I don't want it. I just saw that the pattern of the dugong arrow is very beautiful, and I want to order one in the future to ward off evil spirits."

Kazuha blushed and handed the dugong arrow to Imaguchi Koshin. Imaguchi Koshin looked at the dugong arrow carefully and felt that there seemed to be faint textures on it, so he stretched out his hand and touched it carefully, and sure enough he felt some traces.

Taking out his mobile phone, Imaguchi looked in the right direction and took a few clear photos. The lines on the dugong arrows were clearly visible in the photos.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the photo, Imaguchi returned the dugong arrow to Kazuha with a smile and jokingly said: "Take it, little Kazuha, I wish you a successful confession!"

"Well, hey! When did I say that I wanted to confess to that guy Heiji!!!" Kazuye stood up with his face flushed and said loudly.

After finishing speaking, he noticed his current appearance. He looked at the people around him who were looking at him. He and Ye Man sat down with a blush on their faces. The people around them laughed maliciously, which made Yuan Shan and Ye Man's faces. flushed.

"Pfft, I didn't say it was Hattori Heiji just now." Imaguchi Xin and Mao Lilan both had smiles on their faces.

Seeing Kazuye being so excited, Imagochi realized that he seemed to have gone too far, coughed twice and comforted: "Don't worry, didn't Changshou Po say everything, your wish will come true! All you need to do now is to encourage Take courage."

"But, I still don't have much confidence." Yuan Shan and Ye still had no confidence.

"You are so kind, he will definitely like it." Imaguchi looked at Toyama Kazuha with a smile. Hattori Heiji may not have that intention towards Kazuha.

"Well, didn't you mean..." Xiaolan also comforted Heye.

After listening to the comfort from Imaguchi and Xiaolan, Kazuye also returned to his usual liveliness, and the three of them continued to talk and laugh in the restaurant.

After eating, Xiaolan and Heye planned to go back to see how Conan and the others were doing and if there was anyone who needed help. However, because of something else, Kouxin did not go back with them, but planned to stay for a while.

After sending the two of them away, Imaguchi held the photo of the dugong arrow in his hand and observed it. Originally, he did not remember the dugong arrow, but recalling the pattern on the dugong arrow, he suddenly remembered about the dugong arrow. about what happened to them on Mermaid Island 20 years ago.

Twenty years ago, I heard about the legend of Mermaid Island, where there was a longevity woman who ate mermaid meat and lived a long life. So although I didn’t think it was true, my brother took him to the island to investigate.

After arriving on the island, Imaguchi kept playing and was vague about many things. He only remembered that his brother took him to the celebration and also took him to meet the longevity woman. longevity is not young, but a very old woman. Very old grandma.

Later, his brother told him that the legend of Mermaid Island was false and that the longevity woman could not live forever. However, after the investigation was clear, they did not leave immediately. Instead, they stayed on the island for a while. During that time, their brother was completing research on a medicine.

Although the research failed in the end, Imaguchi remembered that the medicine did seem to be somewhat related to immortality, but the side effects were very serious. After the confirmation failed, my brother casually placed the information here on Mermaid Island.

He remembered that the place where the information was stored was marked by a dugong arrow. As for the specific location, he still needed to think about it slowly, but he only remembered that it was on the mountain.

On Mermaid Island, Imaguchi wandered around with his cell phone, looking for information about the location of the data in his memory.

On the other side, Xiaolan, Heye and the others returned to the hotel where they were staying and found that Conan and the others had returned, but their faces were not very good-looking, and they obviously had gained nothing.

"what happened?"

"We checked the scene again, but still didn't find any useful clues. Then we tried to find Miss Saori's father but couldn't find him. Nothing was done today." Hattori Heiji rubbed his head. , sighed.

"It's okay. If you look slowly, you will eventually find clues." Toyama and Ye comforted Hattori Heiji when they saw that they were a little depressed.

"Sister Xiaolan, what did you do today?" Conan looked at Mao Lilan and the others looking a little tired, and was a little confused.

"We bought a lot of things today. We visited half of the island and bought a lot of souvenirs. Conan, do you want to see if there is anything you like?" Mao Lilan said and took out a few items from the bag on the side. The thing was handed to Edogawa Conan.

"You guys bought all these?" Looking at the pile of gifts as tall as each person in front of them, Hattori Heiji and Conan were a little shocked.

"Yes, I bought some of everything, and ended up buying more. But fortunately, there were more people to give to." Yuan Shan and Ye nodded.

"By the way, did you see Mr. Monkyo when you were walking around during the day? Neighbors around him said that he loved drinking and usually stayed in the pub. But we searched for him for a long time and couldn't find him. Did you see him?" Hattori? Heiji suddenly thought that Toyama and Ye were also wandering around the island today. He wondered if they had met Miss Saori's father.

"No, we didn't see any acquaintances. There are even no aborigines on the island except the people in the shop." Heye and Xiaolan shook their heads together. Today is the day of Miss Shoumei's vigil, so the people on the island Most of them were busy with their own affairs, and there were really not many idle people in the snack street.

"That's really weird. Where else could he go?" Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

……

Imaguchi wandered around the island for a long time, and finally found something familiar, a stone with a familiar name.

Imaguchi has a little memory about this stone. He remembers that this stone was a temple from Mermaid Island. At that time, some people would come to worship this stone every now and then.

It was only because of them that I realized that this ordinary-looking stone was actually a small Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. However, it had become bare due to exposure to wind and rain over time, and its original appearance could not be seen.

I am quite fond of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. I often come here to play and even buried a treasure box under the stone. If he guessed correctly, he also put the clues about the information in the box.

Seeing that there was no one around, Imaguchi squatted down, touched the stone in front of him, and then started digging with a sharp stone. After digging for a long time, he finally found the box he had buried in front of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. , the quality of the box is good, it has not been damaged even after 20 years, but there are some rust stains on it.

Imaguchi opened the box and found some childhood toys inside, as well as a treasure map. The treasure map was obviously where the information was located.

Looking at the route on the treasure map, Imaguchi mentally estimated the location of the things and already had a rough idea in his mind.

It's just that although this place is not very far, it is almost dark now, and it is definitely too late to go back and forth. Besides, it is not safe to go there at night.

He had no choice but to give up now and planned to go there tomorrow, and now it was time for him to go find Xiaolan and the others.
