At one o'clock in the morning, the residents of the island were shrouded in fear. The deaths of two people in a row had already made them feel the pressure.

In front of the corpse, Kogoro held a camera and took pictures of Naoko in a very professional manner.

Hattori analyzed the scene from the side:

"She was strangled to death before being tied to this fishing net."

"Miss Naoko was wearing slippers, but there were different shoe marks on the beach. It looked like the footprints left by the murderer."

Kogoro finished taking pictures, looked at Naoko's body and sighed: "It's such a tragic death."

"Look here, this is the mark after the Dugong Sword was stepped on."

Conan squatted on the ground and told everyone what he had discovered.

Kogoro thought for a moment and came up with a good idea.

"Look, we can trace the murderer by following the footprints of this shoe."

After that, Kogoro took a flashlight and shined the footprints on the ground, and followed them.

"Really, it's rare that uncle is smart for once."

Hattori followed Kogoro forward, not forgetting to praise him.

"It's strange. Something strange seems to have fallen next to the footprints."

Hattori knelt down and picked up the suspicious objects on the beach.

"Are these fish scales? How could such a thing appear?"

Before anyone could reason, a strong voice came from afar.

"Don't move at all! What are you doing? Are you destroying the crime scene?"

A fat middle-aged man walked towards this side with several of his men.

Kogoro touched the back of his head with his hand and said with a slight lack of confidence: "We are investigating this case."

"Absurd! This is the responsibility of our Fukui Prefecture police. Are you also a police officer?"

Hattori complained at the side: "You are finally here."

Kogoro's eyes narrowed, and he took a step forward and said, "Although I am no longer a policeman, I used to be a police officer in Rice Flower. Now I am a famous detective, Maori Kogoro!"

Even though he said this, Kogoro and the others still stepped aside, allowing the police to intervene.

Hattori turned around and walked up to Kazuha.

"Hey, don't leave me even half a step from now on!"

He Ye nodded with a blushing face.

At this time, the Fukui Prefectural Police conducted an investigation among the guests as to who would possess the Dugong Sword.

Inside the restaurant.

Hattori and Conan sat face to face, eating midnight snacks.

Hattori whispered: "Hey Kudo, do you see something coming now?"

Conan lowered his head and ate the sushi and replied: "I have no clue at all, but one thing I have in common is that the dead Miss Sumi, Miss Naoko and the missing Miss Saori all believe in the existence of mermaids. "

"Hey, it would be great if we could find out who bought that number plate."

Jun Hui happened to hear it from the side and stepped forward and said: "This is very easy, because we have always recorded this matter, and the record book is at my home."

Hattori and Conan looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

In this way, the two of them followed Jun Hui to her house, looking for the record book.

"How is that possible? Why is it missing?"

Jun Hui looked for the record book anxiously. The record books from previous years were all there, but this year's one was nowhere to be found.

Conan was bored and flipped through the record books from previous years, and found a very interesting name in them.

Miyano Shiho?

Why did she come here? Is it possible that she also believes in the mermaid legend?

Also following were Xiaolan and Heye. At this time, they were outside the corridor.

A black shadow appeared in the forest, and the two of them turned around and looked at each other.

Xiaolan and Heye once again contributed their own screams, and the shadow heard the scream and ran away.

Conan and Hattori, who were checking the record book in the house, heard the sound and ran outside like crazy.

"What's going on?" Hattori came out and found nothing unusual.

Xiaolan pointed to the forest and said, "A woman with brown hair and glasses appeared there just now, and she kept staring at us."

Conan whispered: "Is it possible that this person is Saori?"

"Where is sister Jun Hui?" Conan found that Jun Hui was missing and asked Xiao Lan anxiously.

Xiaolan's emotions were not yet calm at this time, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Conan's questions.

After two seconds, Xiaolan said to Conan: "Miss Junhui said she wanted to go to the newly built warehouse to take a look."

Hattori frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.

"Where is that warehouse?"

Xiaolan pointed into the distance, her eyes widening.

"It's right there, but why is it so bright there?"

Conan and Hattori looked in the direction of Xiaolan's finger, and saw fire shooting into the sky in the distance.

Late at night, on a small island with imperfect safety facilities, it took a long time for the rescue team to arrive, but it was too late and the flames could not be extinguished.

The warehouse burned like this all night, just like three years ago.

And Yang Ming? He is still asleep! In his dream, he was eating a seafood dinner with endless delicacies. He quickly saved tens of billions and returned to his original world.

At dawn, the sky was bright.

"Burned bodies?"

Hattori looked at the rescuers in front of him in disbelief. How could there be someone in the warehouse?

"Yes, the deceased was burnt all over and was wearing a pair of glasses. I think this is Ms. Saori."

Xiaolan couldn't help being frightened and murmured: "Could it be that what I saw last night was a ghost?"

"Jun Hui? Jun Hui? Where are you?"

It was Changshou Po, who was looking for Jun Hui in the house.

"Hey, Hattori, I remember Miss Kimie said she had been to the dentist before, right?"

Hattori was stunned and thought of this.

"I have a very bad feeling."

……

At ten o'clock in the morning, Kogoro finally confirmed the matter to the hospital.

"How was the investigation?" Hattori stepped forward and asked. He still couldn't believe it.

Kogoro sighed and turned to everyone: "I just got in touch with the hospital. They compared the tooth shapes of Junhui and the corpse and found that the two are exactly the same!"

Lu Lang at the door overheard these words and couldn't help but fell to his knees and cried bitterly.

Conan gritted his teeth, this was the third murder case! Damn Yang Ming!

Yang Ming:? ? ?

In Changshou Po's bedroom, she was lying on the bed, listening to Hattori telling her that Junhui had passed away.

But when she got the news, she seemed very calm, as if she had seen through life and death.

"Really? Jun Hui is dead."

"I'm really sorry. This was all caused by our negligence."

Hattori apologized sincerely. He blamed himself very much for Junhui's death. If he could keep Junhui under control, he might not have to die.

"Every young life is gone, but I drag this body with me to survive."

Hattori and others didn't know what to say to comfort Changshou Po, so they could only leave the room silently.

The time came to noon, and a strong light shone on Yang Ming's face.

Yang Ming woke up in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the clock on the bedside.

It's already twelve o'clock. It's time to get up, wash up and eat.
