America Island Pier.

Xia Ye and his party came to the village office after disembarking from the boat.

The invitation letter Hattori Heiji received didn't even have contact information, and now he has no way to find a client!

So I had to come to the staff for help

"You kid~"

Mouri Kogoro complained again and again:

"We were called to this island without even knowing it!"

"What to do now, are we really looking for a mermaid?"

"uncle——"

Hattori Heiji looked helpless:

"They have enclosed the commission fee with the letter. Even if we don’t want to take care of it, we still have to return the commission fee to them, right?"

"Commission fee?"

Mouri Kogoro suddenly became energetic:

"How many?"

"Five hundred thousand each!"

"Remember to give me my share!"

With the money, Mouri Kogoro no longer complained.

He went straight to the front desk of the village office and started asking about the situation.

"You mean mermaid?"

Hearing Mouri Kogoro's description, Mr. Kobayashi, a staff member of the village office, was a little surprised. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"There is a legend about mermaids on this island, but when it comes to mermaids, the first thing that comes to mind is the annual dugong celebration on our island!"

"If you want to find a mermaid——"

"Just go and participate!"

"Dugong celebration?"

Mouri Kogoro scratched his head,"Is it some kind of folklore activity?"

"During the Dugong Celebration, the longevity woman who can live forever after eating mermaid meat will give out three dugong arrows at each celebration. Whoever receives the dugong arrows made from the hair of the longevity woman will realize the wish of immortality!"

Behind the crowd, a woman with short blond hair wearing glasses talked a lot.

Looking at her enthusiastic expression, she was obviously someone who firmly believed in the existence of mermaids in this world!

"Yarn weaving?"

They are all residents of the island. Mr. Xiaolin naturally knew each other. He said hello and then introduced Xia Ye and his party:

"This is Saori Kadori. She works at the souvenir shop on the corner."

"She is very interested in mermaids. If you have any questions, you can ask her."

"Hello, Miss Saori~"

Mouri Kogoro politely came up to chat.

After all, Kadori Saori is a pretty young beauty.

He won't let this old guy let it go!

After chatting for a few words, everyone prepared to go to the door. Let’s take a look at the souvenir shop where Ri Saori works.

The client, Ms. Mermaid, can’t be found for the time being.

Then let’s pretend we are traveling to the island!

On the village path.

Xia Ye, Xiaolan and the others are walking behind.

Watching and Mori Kogoro is chatting with Kadori Saori.

In the original plot, when Conan and the others came to Miguo Island, Kadabasa Saori had been killed by Jun Hui.

However, Jun Hui has not yet taken action.

As the chief culprit who killed Jun Hui's mother The culprit, this time Junhui prepared an even more shocking way to die for her!

In the souvenir shop.

Kadori Saori introduced the products in the shop to Conan and the others.

"summer leaves——"

Xiaolan pulled Xia Ye's clothes, her pretty face was puzzled:

"Why do I feel like this Miss Saori is a little too attentive? Is there something wrong?"

"yarn weaving——"

Before Xia Ye could speak.

A somewhat teasing voice came from the door:

"You're trying to please tourists again. Do you want to trick people into getting dugong arrows and selling them to you so that you can escape the mermaid's curse?"

"Naoko!"

Mori Saori turned back to look at the person coming with a look of shame and anger:

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"

"Haha~"

Kuroe Naoko's eyes joked:

"You lost the dugong arrow you got at the celebration last year, and you've been worried all day long!"

"If it weren't for getting another dugong arrow, how could you possibly please tourists with your character?"

"etc!"Xiaolan asked curiously:

"What does the mermaid's curse mean?"

"Curse of the Mermaid——"

Kuroe Naoko glanced at Kadori Saori:

"The dugong arrow is a symbol of the mermaid. If you lose the dugong arrow, you will naturally suffer revenge from the mermaid!"

"Speaking of which, I thought Saori would escape from the island and hide in the mainland for a while!"

Everyone turned their attention to Saori Monori.

She saw a trace of panic on her face.

For those who firmly believe in the existence of mermaids, mermaids are not only existences that can make people immortal, but also monsters that can curse people!

I have to say This is very sad~

People who don’t believe in the existence of mermaids will not have such troubles!

Xia Ye glanced at Kuroe Naoko and Kadori Saori.

Both women were convinced of the existence of mermaids.

Even because they wanted to verify the existence of mermaids He set fire to Jun Hui's mother!

After losing the dugong arrow, Saori Monari went to Jun Hui and asked where her mother's grave was, hoping to eat the"mermaid's" bones to become immortal! If you want to make them perish, you must first make them crazy!

To destroy humanity to this point - the deaths of these"good friends" Jun Hui are not unfair at all!

"Mermaids are quite cautious!" Hattori Heiji muttered

"Don't speak ill of mermaids!"

Hearing Xia Ye teasing mermaids, Kuroe Naoko and Kadori Saori's expressions changed:

"Even if you are foreigners——"

"The mermaid's curse will also come true!"

"OK OK!"

Mouri Kogoro has a very emotional intelligence to ease the atmosphere:

"Let’s just say it!"

"Excuse me——"

Conan raised his head and changed the subject:

"If we want to attend that dugong celebration, where do we need to go?"

"Of course it’s the island’s shrine!"

Naoko Kuroe pointed to the seaside not far away:

"The longevity lady of the shrine is the protagonist of today’s celebration, and she is also the symbol of our island.~"

"From the beginning of recorded history, she has presided over the annual dugong celebration!"

"So?"

He Ye Meimu was curious:

"Since she is said to be a longevity woman, what is her actual age?"

"How old is the longevity woman?"

Naoko Kuroe was stunned and was not sure:

"Some say one hundred years old, and some say two hundred years old. Anyway, since I was a child——"

"No, my mother was already a longevity woman when she was a child. Are you right, Saori?"

Saori Kadori was asked and nodded.

"That's right, the longevity woman has become immortal after eating mermaid meat, so she can live for such a long time!"

"However, if you want to know how old she is, it’s best to ask Jun Hui!"

"Yes, let’s go find Jun Hui!"

"Jun Hui?"

Xiaolan heard the name she had seen in the diary and asked pretending not to know:

"Who is that?"

"He is a friend who grew up with us~"

There was nothing strange on Kuroe Naoko's face:

"Jun Hui is the great-granddaughter of Changshou Po, and now works as a witch in a shrine.~"

"If you want to know how old Changshou is, you can ask her."

"Then let’s go to the shrine now!"

Xiaolan couldn't wait to see this girl that Xia Ye had mentioned in her diary. She took Xia Ye's hand and urged.

"OK!"

The shrine on Yonekojima is adjacent to the seaside.

The stairs leading to the torii gate are on the beach.

When Natsuye and his party came to the torii gate of the shrine, a beautiful miko wearing a red and white miko uniform was standing on the beach looking at the sea.

The sea in the distance There were heavy clouds, and the tide kept pouring onto the beach, making all the sand in front of her wet. It seemed that the atmosphere was a bit depressing.~

"Junhui!"

Kuroe Naoko waved to the shrine maiden

"Naoko? And yarn weaving?"

Jun Hui turned around with a faint smile on her pretty face:

"Are you here so early?"

"We will bring you guests!"

Kuroe NaiKoko and Kadori Saori talked to Shimabukuro Kimie in a natural manner, as if they were really good friends with no barriers!

"guest?"

Shimabukuro Junhui looked at Xia Ye and his party, with a smile in her beautiful eyes:

"Is it just these people?"

"Hello, Miss Junhui~"

Xiaolan and Heye looked at each other.

She is indeed a beautiful and gentle young lady, and she has a temperament that makes me pity her. No wonder Xia Ye mentioned it in her diary.——

"Hello~"

I knew that these girls were all Xia Ye's women.

So even if it was their first meeting,

Shimabukuro Kimie naturally felt that they were a little close.

After both parties introduced themselves. (Read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Xiaolan has already started chatting with Junhui in a familiar manner.

Compared with her cautious and polite character before, she now has the demeanor of Yukiko with social phobia!

"oops!"

"How could my great-grandmother be two hundred years old?"

When Xiaolan asked the longevity woman's age, Shimabukuro Kime waved her hands and said with a smile:[]

"In fact, she is only 130 years old as of this year. She is not as exaggerated as the legend says!"

"One hundred and thirty years old?"He Ye exclaimed:

"This is already an exaggeration!"

"It's okay~"

A trace of undetectable sadness flashed in Shimabukuro Junhui's beautiful eyes, and it disappeared immediately.

Only Xiaolan, who had been observing her, was thoughtful.

It seems that Junhui has some unspeakable secret here, Maybe he's just like Makoto Asai from Moon Shadow Island back then!

Sure enough, Xia Ye likes girls with stories!

"So please——"

Hattori Heiji asked aloud:

"Where is your great-grandmother now?"

"Of course, I am diligently making the dugong arrows that I will send out tonight at the shrine~"

Shimabukuro Kimie pointed to the shrine behind him:

"If you want to see her, you have to wait until the celebration begins. She will not come out to meet the guests before the celebration begins!"

"Is that so?......"

Mouri Kogoro suddenly came over and asked mysteriously:

"Miss Junhui, let me ask you, did your great-grandmother really eat mermaid meat?"

""Giggle, giggle~"

Shimabukuro Kime chuckled, and the cute silver bell-like laughter contained a mocking meaning:

"There is no such thing as a mermaid in this world. Those are all nonsense made by people. Don’t believe it, Mr. Mori!"

"You are so stupid!"

A girl's voice came from the shrine's torii gate:

"Jun Hui, you say this because you simply don’t believe in your great-grandmother’s power!"

"Sumi!"

Shimabukuro Kimie turned around to look at the person who came.

He saw a beautiful woman with long black straight hair walking down the steps. She walked closer and said with a smile:

"Your great-grandmother really has magical powers, and she did eat mermaid meat before. Three years ago, mermaid corpses appeared on the island, right?"

"The body of the mermaid! ?"

Conan and Hattori Heiji were shocked.

Could that be the client who sent the invitation letter?

"That's just a rumor!"

Shimabukuro Kimie's hands behind her back were clenched so tightly that her nails penetrated into her palms!

A trace of murderous intent flashed through her clear, beautiful eyes!

Ebihara Hisumi's words made her almost uncontrollable in her desire for revenge.!

Three years ago, the three people present wanted to verify whether the longevity woman my mother pretended to be was an immortal mermaid. They closed the warehouse door and burned my mother to death. Now they are still shamelessly mentioning this matter. Damn it! I ca n’t wait. Yes!

You can start now!

"hehe~"

"Telling lies with your eyes open!"

Ebihara Hisumi shook her head helplessly.

She wanted to say something else.

But she heard Kadori Saori's scream from beside her.——

"Mermaid!"

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked. When they turned around, they saw Saori Kadori running towards the surging sea like crazy!

Soon the water covered her calves and wet her clothes.

However, she I didn't realize it at all, as if my mind was confused by some strange existence, I wanted to throw myself into the embrace of the sea!

"Yarn!"

Kuroe Naoko and Ebihara Hisumi shouted loudly:

"come back quickly!"

"The tide is rising now, it's too dangerous!"

"No!"

Mori Saori screamed:

"I definitely saw a mermaid just now. You wait, when I catch the mermaid, I will be immortal, hahaha!"

"Yarn!"Shimabukuro Junhui's pretty face was anxious:

"You come back first. Even if there are mermaids, everyone can help you catch them. It's too dangerous for you to do this!"

"Don't try to trick me into going back!"

The sea water has covered Saori Monori's thighs, but she still looks enthusiastic:

"You guys want to steal my merman, I won’t do it——!"

Wow——!

She didn't finish her sentence.

A big wave crashed over.

Her figure has disappeared on the sea!

The surging tide left no trace of 820!

"hateful!"

The incident was so sudden that no one had time to stop Saori Kadori as she rushed towards the sea.

And later on, no one dared to risk their lives and rush in to save people!

Looking at the empty sea, Mouri Kogoro was filled with heart. He said helplessly:

"Call the police and call for rescue!"

"yes!"

The rescue team on the island arrived quickly, but before they could put the boat out to sea, Kuroe Naoko pointed at the sea and screamed in horror:

"That——is it Saori?"

"Seems to be!"

After her reminder, everyone looked at the sea not far away.

At the position that many people were watching, a black shadow seemed to appear out of thin air, drifting towards the shore with the surging tide - the sea breeze Under the breeze, many people couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

When the black shadow was washed to the shore by the waves, the chill in everyone's hearts became even worse!

That's right - this black shadow was Saori Kadori who just rushed into the sea!

At this moment, she naturally had no signs of life. However, the strange thing was - her face did not show the struggle and fear of the ordinary deceased before death. Instead, there was a smug smile on her face, which looked extremely penetrating!

"She seemed to be holding something in her hand."

After carefully observing the death of Monori Saori, Xiao Ai reminded lightly

"What?"

Everyone around the body looked at the sound.

Sure enough - Saori Kadori's right hand was clenched tightly, as if she was actually holding something!

At this time, her body was gradually stiffening.

The two islanders spent a lot of time Only with the strength did she open her fingers and saw what she was holding in her hand!

The atmosphere was silent for a moment.

Fear couldn't help but spread among the crowd!

"fish......Fish scales!"

Yes, it is a fish scale that is crystal clear, as if made of jade!

As islanders who make a living on the sea, most people here can tell the type of fish at a glance through the scales.

However, they cannot see this fish scale at all. I can’t tell what kind of fish scales they are, or even whether they are fish scales!

"Could it be——"

"Is it a mermaid?"

Finally, someone murmured in a trembling voice the guess that no one dared to say.

"right!"

At this time, Kuroe Naoko and Ebihara Hisumi no longer felt sad about losing their friends. Kuroe Naoko breathed quickly:

"Just before Saori rushed to the sea, she said she saw a mermaid. She was absolutely right!"

"That's definitely a mermaid!"

"Saori is cursed!"

Ebihara Sumi looked at the body of Saori Kadori with a strange look,"She lost the dugong arrow, so even if she saw the mermaid, she didn't have the confidence to live forever. Instead, she was killed by the mermaid. If——"

Everyone knows what this means.

Faced with this temptation, various thoughts arose.

Wow——!

The sound of rolling waves came from the distant sea.

Everyone subconsciously followed the sound, and an elegant shadow jumped out of the water, drew a perfect arc and submerged into the sea. The crystal scales on the dreamy fish tail were exactly the same as the ones Saori Menri held in the palm of her hand just now!

And then - people went crazy!.
