The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

Chapter 579 This family will be separated without me (page 12)

"A more special guest? If you ask me that, I also..."

"The photos of those who landed on the island two years ago and participated in the Dugong Festival are here."

"Well, he is a handsome-looking man, but I don't have any impression. Every year, our festival lottery draws 500 people. Each place only charges 5 yen for simple materials. Most of the guests do not pay in person. I have seen It’s also limited.”

Walking out of the shrine, the two stern-faced detectives looked at the notes written in their notebooks and were silent for a while.

It is not difficult to find information about Ichikawa Karasawa. Although he gradually disappeared after being absorbed by the organization and no new records can be found, he is after all an excellent physician who has been renowned for many years. With remote assistance, they still obtained the photo information of Karasawa Ikawa.

In order to prevent any appearance changes in the past few years, they also asked Haibara Ai to help confirm.

The girls who were worried about bringing lunch to Tangze went back in a hurry, while the two of them stayed on the island to explore.

"What is certain now is that, first of all, none of these people got the Dugong Arrow, at least not when they were on the island." Hattori Heiji touched his chin and said firmly.

"There are no new gains on the roster. It seems that they only came to the island once two years ago." Conan looked at the records in his notebook, pondered for a moment and said, "It's a bit strange. If their target is the dugong, Even if you don’t get the arrow, you should probably choose to buy one at a high price, right?”

"Yes, according to the islanders, although most of the people who got the arrows are relatively pious, or are worried about being punished for losing the arrows, the island has held festivals for so many years, and many local residents They all have arrows, and someone must have chosen to sell it privately under the temptation of money." Hattori Heiji also nodded in approval and guessed, "Did the deal be reached in secret? Or, after landing on the island to investigate, they Choose not to accept this so-called legend?"

"The organization's action was only this one time, and there was no follow-up contact after that. That's for sure." Closing the book in his hand, Conan patted his forehead with a headache, "Still not sure why they would do anything to Tang Ze had such a big reaction."

Since this may be a secret operation with little movement for the organization, it is impossible for Karasawa Ikawa to have done anything that would make the residents avoid it.

"What's even weirder is Naoko Kuroe." Hattori Heiji frowned, recalling the scene when he met her in the morning, "If she really had such a big reaction because of Karasawa's similar face to his father, She should have reacted when she saw Tangze yesterday."

"It's impossible. What did Karasawa do last night that could alarm the entire island?" Conan said, his eyes drifting to Hattori Heiji who was in the same room as Karasawa.

Who knows if you may fall into a deep sleep and not wake up at all.

"If there is such a big noise, I should be the first to hear it." The detective, who was sleeping well, crossed his arms, "Your eyes are very rude, Kudo!"

Conan withdrew his gaze and coughed: "However, Tangze acted alone last night. Maybe he discovered something at night, or in other words, broke something, which aroused some people's fear?"

"This place is weird." Hattori Heiji put away his notebook and breathed out, "Don't you think it's weird? We have been to the shrine so many times and even went to the warehouse at the back, but we have never seen that person. Here’s the long-lived goddess.”

"Didn't they say that every time there is a festival, the Shimabukuro family's grandma will personally preside over and select the person who will be blessed by the arrow? Then tomorrow, we will see the result." Hattori Heiji looked at the lush greenery outside the stairs, even in the noon sunshine. The mountain forest, which could not be penetrated by light, sighed slowly, "I always have a feeling that something will go wrong tomorrow. What about you, Kudo?"

"I..." Conan, who was about to answer, was suddenly attracted by a light passing by the corner of his eye. He quickly turned his head and looked at the forest behind the shrine.

A very familiar figure from the back quickly passed through his field of vision, causing him to turn his head in that direction involuntarily.

Where he turned his eyes, he could only see a dense forest that seemed to block out the sky and the sun.

No, the light just now was definitely not an illusion.

Conan raised his hand, pressed the button on his glasses, and his eyes quickly widened.

"Hey, Hattori, look over there... Are those Miss Ran and Toyama?!"

----

"Does this map really work?" The flashlight shone randomly around the tall trees, but Yuanshan and Ye, who still couldn't determine the direction, lowered their hands in frustration, "I feel like we're lost, Xiaolan. "

"This..." Mao Lilan held the simple map in his hand and smiled bitterly.

Do I still need to ask? She thought they should have known about this twenty minutes ago.

"The mobile phone has lost signal for a long time. No wonder Heiji and the others didn't answer the phone at all..." Toyama and Ye, who had a headache, stared at the icon in the upper right corner of the phone, and finally understood why they couldn't contact anyone just now.

"Well, it's an island after all. Maybe after leaving the commercial street, the signal is not very stable." Mao Lilan put down the mobile phone that also couldn't make calls, and patted Yuan Shan and Ye's shoulders comfortingly: "How is it? , can you still keep up with your physical strength?”

"I'm fine!" Yuan Shan and Ye nodded with certainty, "Tangze is still waiting for us, we can't give up here!"

For no reason, two people would definitely not run into an undeveloped area alone. The mountains are full of insects and snakes. Even if you don't consider other things, there are risks in entering the mountains unprepared.

The main thing was that when they returned to the hotel with lunch, they found that Tang Ze's room was empty. Tang Ze, who was supposed to stay there and wait for them to come back and feed them, was missing.

You must know that many people on the island are not very friendly to Tang Ze. It is not safe to leave the room and run out casually. This is not something that Tang Ze, who has always been cautious, would do.

Their first reaction was to contact Conan and Hattori Heiji who had not returned yet, as well as Mouri Kogoro who had wandered off somewhere. However, they received no response and only found a simple map in the room.

There is only one line written on the map - Mermaid Tomb.

If this is what Karasawa left, it must represent his whereabouts. And if this is not what Karasawa left, but someone who asked him to leave or took him away, then this may be similar to a ransom. , requiring them to find some kind of secret code.

"When we need them most, these bunch of reasoning madmen are not here." Yuanshan and Ye crossed their hips and were very unhappy, "A bunch of useless men either can't be found, or they still need the two of us. Worry!"

"At least Tangze changed into clothes for going out and brought a mobile phone with him. Maybe he was just called here instead of being taken away or something." Mao Lilan understood Yuanshan and Ye's anxious mood at this time. , she could only try her best to say optimistic words, trying to adjust her mentality, "Don't worry too much. If we still can't find it after searching for another twenty minutes, we will hurry up and return to the original route. If it takes too long, the mark left behind will say Maybe I won’t be able to find it either.”
