Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin
Chapter 280 Mermaid Island (9)
Kabuto Saori's room looked very ordinary. After Moori Kogoro and Conan came in, they began to search it carefully, trying to find possible relevant clues.
It's just that this room is really simple, there is nothing superfluous, but the bags on the table are a bit eye-catching.
I heard from the neighbor who led the way before that the father and daughter of Men Xie often quarreled, and this bag was prepared by Miss Saori and was ready to be used when leaving home at any time. It contained all the more important personal belongings.
Conan and the others poured out all the things and checked them carefully. There was nothing special inside. The two of them sat on the bed and began to meditate, thinking about what else they had left behind.
Now Kou Xin pulled Xiaolan and looked around the whole house casually. Miss Shazhi's room was not very big, and the things in it were relatively simple, and there were not too many items.
There are no crime books, no personal favorites, etc. It looks very ordinary, but the only unusual thing is that there are very few mermaid things in the room, it can even be said that there are almost none.
This makes people feel a little strange. After all, the island became rich because of mermaids. It can be said that every household has something about mermaids. Even if you don't like it, there will be some in the things you usually buy, but there is no such thing in this room. Less than.
Imaguchi had some doubts in his heart, but before he could think about it, he saw that Conan seemed to have discovered something. Seeing the look in his eyes, Imaguchi knew that Conan should already know the truth of the matter.
Sure enough, they went back after a while. Not long after they returned, Imaguchi heard that Detective Mori already knew who the murderer was and would announce the truth soon.
However, Mouri Kogoro said that he could not start until all the islanders arrived.
Imaguchi followed Conan and the others and waited for a while. Seeing that the people were coming slowly, and Mouri Kogoro had no intention of talking, he just said something to Xiaolan and left first.
Holding the map in his hand, Imaguchi followed his memory and arrived at the back mountain of Mermaid Island. Passing through the mountain path, Imaguchi arrived at the foot of a cliff after twists and turns.
The surrounding environment is good, and there are various flowers. However, Imaguchi is not in the mood to appreciate it at this time. He groped his way to a hut at the foot of the mountain according to his own memory.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar wooden house in front of him, Imaguchi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had found it. This house was where my brother conducted experiments more than 20 years ago. Imaguchi also buried the materials here, including some of the experimental products.
Although I don’t know if the medicine can still be taken after all these years, at least it can be regarded as a demonstration.
The hut that had not been visited for many years was dilapidated and dilapidated. Imaguchi thought it would be dusty inside, but when he walked in, he found that it was not as dirty as he thought. Although there was a lot of dust, it was far from that thick. I stretched out my fingers and wiped the dirt on the table and the ground.
Imaguchi already knew it in his heart. He thought that Lai Azhen and the others should have been here when they came to Mermaid Island three years ago. However, they didn't find anything. They thought it was just an ordinary abandoned wooden house, so they didn't do much. disguise.
He raised his head and scanned the various things in the house. Imaguchi felt a little sigh in his heart, but he did not go in again. The thing he was looking for was right next to the door.
After poking on the ground and finding a suitable place, Imaguchi inserted a dagger into the cracks of the bricks, and he pried up each brick. There was an A8-sized box placed vertically under the brick. He pulled out the box inside and patted the dust on it. Before he could open it and take a look, he suddenly heard a shout from outside.
Frowning, Imaguchi put the box into his own packaging, then restored the floor tiles to their original state, and walked in the direction of the sound. As a result, the closer he got, the more familiar the sound became.
"Heiji, let go! This branch is about to break!"
"No, Heye, what are you going to do! Stop!"
Isn't this the voice of Toyama Kazuha and Hattori Heiji?
Imaguchi quickly walked a few steps and ran over, and then saw Toyama Kazuha hanging on the cliff, and Hattori Heiji was holding the tree trunk with one hand and her hand with the other. He was about to lose it, and Toyama and Ye Ye also pierced the back of Hattori Heiji's hand with a dugong arrow.
Imaguchi ran over and saw them, and Hattori Heiji also saw Imaguchi under the cliff, but it was not the time to talk at this time, and Imaguchi had no way to help them under the cliff, and it was too late to find someone now. .
"Hurry up and let go! Heiji!" Toyama Kazuha couldn't see the scene below. Seeing that Hattori Heiji refused to let go, he was a little anxious. The branch above his head was about to break!
"No, Heye, I will never let you go!"
The blood spread from Hattori Heiji's hand to Toyama Kazuha's arm, like a red line.
Hattori Heiji's arms were stretched and painful, and coupled with the back of his hand that had just been stabbed, his whole body was almost out of strength.
"Heiji..." The two looked at each other, as if tears flashed in their eyes.
Imaguchi looked at the bottom of the cliff with great interest, walked over slowly, and stopped more than ten meters directly below the two of them.
"Well, how about you two let go and jump down?" Imaguchi saw that Hattori Heiji really couldn't hold on, so he couldn't help interrupting the two people's flirting and pointed downwards with his finger.
"What?" Hattori Heiji was stunned.
"Imaguchi! Imaguchi, hurry up and find someone!" Only then did Toyama and Ye notice that Imaguchi's heart was here. They were immediately surprised and wanted him to find someone to save them.
"It will take too long to find someone, so you should just jump down!" Imaguchi shook his head inwardly.
Toyama and Ye were stunned after hearing his words, and they were very confused as to why Imaguchi not only didn't find someone to save them, but also let them jump.
Hattori Heiji seemed to suddenly understand something, and suddenly loosened his grip on the branch. A feeling of weightlessness came over him for a moment. Toyama Kazuha couldn't help but scream, and hugged Hattori Heiji tightly.
Just when she thought they were going to fall to death, she found that they had stopped. Although there was a little pain in their bodies, nothing happened.
Toyama and Ye sat up in disbelief, only to find that he was really fine, and Hattori Heiji who was holding him was fine, but his face was a little red.
Only then did she notice that she was sitting on Hattori Heiji, and she quickly stood up. Hattori Heiji also wanted to stand up, but she found a pain in her step. It was obvious that he had sprained his foot just after jumping.
"Be careful!" Toyama and Ye immediately supported Hattori Heiji and looked at him with concern.
"How are you okay?" Imaguchi walked over and saw that there were no injuries on the two of them, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm fine, Heiji just sprained his foot." Toyama and Ye were still a little confused. They didn't understand how they could survive after they jumped off the cliff. Seeing that she didn't understand, Imaguchi pointed at the cliff. Toyama and Ye looked in the direction of his finger, only to realize that the cliff was not actually very high.
It's only six or seven meters in total, and they used branches to buffer it, so the jumping position is only 5 meters, which is not particularly high. Just looking down, because of the terrain. It just looks relatively high.
At this time, Toyama and Ye's fear that they had thought they would die immediately came to mind, and they couldn't help but hugged Hattori Heiji and started crying.
Hattori Heiji quickly patted her back to comfort her, while Imaguchi looked at them from the side and couldn't help but smile.
Mouri Kogoro sat in the room for a long time without speaking, as if waiting for someone, but even the 130-year-old longevity woman on the island had already come over, and there was no shortage of people on the island.
Seeing that he had been silent, Mao Lilan looked at the crowd and found that He Ye and the others had not come back yet, and immediately understood that her father was waiting for He Ye and the others.
Fortunately, before everyone got impatient with waiting, Kazuha and Imaguchi walked in with Hattori Heiji supported. Everyone saw that two of the three of them were in a mess, and they were all very confused. They didn't know what they were going to do. What.
And seeing everyone coming, Kogoro, who was sleeping, also officially started.
Following Mouri Kogoro's reasoning, everyone's expressions changed again and again. No one expected that Mouri Kogoro actually said that it was Shimabukuro Kimie who killed Sumi, Naoko and others.
The burned body found in the morning was not that of Shimabukuro Kime, but that of Kadokyo Saori, who had been missing.
It was not Shimabukuro Kime who went to see a dentist because of toothache, but Kadokyo Saori. It was just that Kimie secretly changed her medical insurance card, so that the police mistakenly thought it was Shimabukuro Kimie who went to the dentist, and misidentified the body.
Of course, this was just part of her plan.
As for where Shimabukuro Kimie went, this involves another secret. Hattori Heiji leaned against the door and revealed the findings he had just investigated.
He had just investigated the bones in the mermaid tomb on the mountain with He Ye. There were indeed bones on the mountain, and they looked like they could be mistaken for mermaids. After all, the skeleton had no lower limbs and looked very much like a fish tail bone.
But in fact, the bones were human, but the legs below the waist were smashed, so it looked like there were no legs in the lower body.
As for the identity of the bones, if they guessed correctly, they should be the person who pretended to be the longevity woman before. After all, the longevity woman does not look like someone who can live for 130 years.
After hearing their reasoning, Changshou Po, who had been silent all this time, suddenly grew taller, and two long legs suddenly stretched out from under her legs.
The hood on his face was also pulled off. Shimabukuro Kimie stood up, slowly cleaned the traces left by the disguise on his face, and told the story of the case.
In fact, the story of the case is very simple. It's just that the deceased and others coveted the secret of the mermaid and wanted to live forever.
For this reason, they deliberately set fire to death three years ago. Shimabukuro Kimie's mother pretended to be a longevity woman. If it only went so far, Shimabukuro Kimie did not blame them, but their greed was unstoppable. tidy.
Not only did he not regret it, but when he saw Changshou Po appear again, he became even more fanatical about mermaids. He wanted to set fire to Changshou Po again and wanted to eat mermaid meat.
Their greedy faces made Shimabukuro June intolerable, and finally killed them one by one through various methods. Originally, Shimabukuro Kime planned to pretend to be a longevity woman and never appear as Shimabukuro Kime again, but who knew that he still didn't hide it from Mouri Kogoro and the others.
"Actually, the longevity woman is fake, and the mermaid is also fake. It was my mother who was pretending before, and then it was me." Shimabukuro Kimie looked at the people around him and said calmly.
But everyone around them lowered their heads in shame. Shimabukuro Kimie was a little confused, and one of the men said guiltily: "I'm sorry, actually we all know it."
Shimabukuro Kimie's face was full of shock, listening to the residents of the island saying that they had long known that the longevity woman was fake, and they had always known that it was their mother and daughter who were pretending. It's just that they have always been reluctant to let go of Changshou Po and the mermaid gimmick, so they never exposed it and acted with them.
But I didn't expect that it would eventually lead to this situation.
After hearing what the islanders said, Shimabukuro Kimie's anger seemed to disappear for a moment. She didn't expect that the mother and daughter had kept it secret for so long and had done so many things. The longevity woman who wanted to pretend was actually long ago They found out it was fake, but no one ever told them.
The next day, Shimabukuro Kimie stood on the boat and looked at the sea. There were several policemen standing beside him. The waves were rolling in the sea, and the boat with them could not move forward, as if the sea was holding back Shimabukuro Kimie.
But they had to leave after all, and Imaguchi and the others stood on the shore and looked at Shimabukuro Kimie in silence, not knowing what to say.
Imaguchi felt a little regretful in his heart. In fact, he had met Shimabukuro Kime when he was a child, and they even played together for a few days. At that time, Shimabukuro Kime was wearing a miko costume and she smiled very happily.
So much so that Imaguchi couldn't remember her name, but he always remembered that he had a friend who wore a miko costume and loved to laugh when he was a child. However, he didn't expect that meeting him again would turn out like this.
The wind and waves on the sea finally calmed down, and the ship gradually drifted away. Mao Lilan and the others sighed.
After returning from Mermaid Island, Imaguchi parted ways with Mao Lilan and the others feeling a little depressed. He originally wanted to take a trip to relax and be happy.
But who would have thought that not only would I be very tired after traveling, but I would also be in a bad mood. If I had known this, it would be better not to travel!
When I got back to my house, I took out my key and started to open the door, but suddenly I was stunned. It smelled so good!
After looking at the peephole on the door, Imaguchi couldn't help but follow the peephole and look towards his home, and found that there was indeed someone in his home.
Jinkou felt happy in his heart and quietly opened the door, for fear of making any noise.
Seeing the person on the sofa with his back to him, Imaguchi walked over quietly, and then jumped on him. As a result, he was pulled by the person and pushed to the sofa.
Imaguchi's face was squeezed hard on the sofa, and his hands were fixed behind his back, unable to move at all.
