Chapter 2165 Scary

Although Fangzheng had no interest at first, he finally decided to go to Mermaid Island with Hattori Heiji and Conan to see how they deal with this matter.

But to be honest, although Fangzheng knew that Kadowaki Saori was very cowardly, he didn't expect this woman to be so cowardly. According to Hattori Heiji, this letter was sent to his home three days ago. Judging from the time, it was the day before Fangzheng learned about this incident, that is to say, after Saori Kadowaki found out that the mermaid arrow she had drawn was missing, she went to Junhui Shimabukuro and blew herself up, and then wrote it on the same day A letter to Hattori Heiji for help......

This Nima's desire to survive is too strong.

However, Fangzheng sank into the sea the next day, so it can be seen that having too much desire for survival is not a good thing.

After arriving at Mermaid Island, everyone went to the town office first, and as expected, they learned that Saori Kadowaki had been missing for several days. Everyone is full of doubts about this. Of course, doubts are doubts. Since they have come, they still need to investigate.

But this has nothing to do with Fangzheng. Compared with Hattori and Conan's reasoning, he cares more about the mermaid island in front of him.

I see.

Looking at the mermaid shop in front of him, Fangzheng nodded secretly. You must know that when killing people, in order to avoid being discovered, he did not come here at all. So I don't know much about the situation in the town, so at the beginning, Fangzheng was skeptical about Junhui Shimabukuro's post.

After all, even pretending to be a long-lived old man doesn't take so long, does it?

But now after seeing the shop here, Fang Zheng finally understood why Shimabukuro Junhui's family had to continue to pretend. Looking around, almost all the shops here are mermaid-themed. Whether they sell souvenirs, decorations, or anything else, they are all related to mermaids, and the island is also full of tourists.

To put it simply, this mermaid island is actually a tourist attraction that sells mermaids and longevity. Most of the residents here rely on this to maintain their livelihoods.

Once the long-lived old man is exposed as a lie, it will not only be a problem for the Shimabukuro family, but will also affect the livelihood of everyone on the island. No wonder Shimabukuro has to continue playing the role of the long-lived woman. It has nothing to do with beliefs and legends, but is completely the core focus of tourism.

It's no wonder, after all, people always want to live forever or prolong their life. Using this as a selling point, and if there is a long-lived old man, no matter it is true or not, people will always come here to try their luck.

Just like going to a temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, no matter whether it is useful or not, you will never lose money by burning incense sticks.

And the day when everyone went to the island happened to be the annual Dugong Festival. At the Dugong Festival, Longevity Po will issue three dugong arrows, and those who get the dugong arrows will live forever... Of course, this is simply legend. If there is such a good thing, among other things, there must be at least one person in this small town.

As for Saori's disappearance, the people in the town thought that she lost the arrow she got at the festival last year, and escaped from the island because she was afraid of the mermaid's revenge.

Speaking of which, you actually made everyone on the island know about this kind of thing, Saori Kadowaki is really cowardly, don't you think you can tell everyone like a bamboo tube and pour beans.

Although Xiaolan and Kazuba were trembling after hearing this story, Uncle Mori, Conan and Hattori Heiji would certainly not be frightened by this statement, but they also agreed that the disappearance of Kadowaki Saori is very likely related to this mermaid legend , So they went to the shrine where the festival was held, and there, Fangzheng also met his "client" Junhui Shimabukuro.

Although I have heard the voice before, I haven't seen her in person, and as far as I can see, Junhui Shimabukuro is also a beautiful girl with a very good appearance, no less than Natsumi Kasaka. If Kasaka Natsumi is a princess type with an elegant temperament similar to the royal family, Junhui Shimabukuro feels very kind, lively, and very cheerful. Her voice is also very sweet and cheerful, which makes people feel good. .

However, contrary to what everyone thinks...

"Where are there any mermaids? That's all nonsense."

As a priestess of the shrine, Shimabukuro Kimie denied the existence of mermaids most clearly.

"My grandma just lived a little longer than others, so many inexplicable rumors spread, and there is nothing we can do about it."

Hearing this, everyone was speechless for a while. It's like the opening of a horror movie, everyone is ready, but someone gives you a spoiler, which is completely fake. But Mori Kogoro didn't give up, and continued to ask.

"So about that dugong arrow..."

"It was originally the Arrow of Forbidden Demons of the shrine, used to cut off disasters and protect others. Later, it was passed down as the Arrow of Dugong... Ah, that's right."

Speaking of this, Junhui Shimabukuro seemed to think of something, reached out and took out two number plates from his sleeve, and handed them to Xiaolan and Kazuha.

"You can try it too. Just this morning, an old couple came to return their number plates. Of course, it's luck if you win or not. Maybe you can really live forever like everyone said."

No, they're immortal even without this thing, okay?

Hearing Shimabukuro Junhui's words, Fang Zheng complained secretly in his heart. When he was in elementary school, he saw that Conan was still Xiaolan's sister. When he graduated from university and started working, Xiaolan's sister would become Xiaolan's sister... More than 20 years later, they didn't even grow a year. This is true. Immortal!

"So, about Saori Kadowaki..."

"Yes, I'm actually worried too."

Speaking of this, Shimabukuro Kimie had a look of worry on his face.

"Although everyone on the island thinks she just ran away from home after another fight with her father, I know that's not the case."

"Oh? How do you say that?"

Hearing this, Conan and Hattori's curiosity was immediately aroused.

"Because every time Saori runs away from home, she actually lives with me most of the time, and to tell you the truth, two of my friends have also disappeared like Saori."

……………Ok?

Hearing this, Fangzheng silently glanced at Junhui Shimabukuro.

Big girl, don't you want to betray me?

Is it so difficult to do good things these days?

Hey, where is the trust between people?

"Is there such a thing?"

Sure enough, Conan and Hattori immediately became nervous at this time, and Xiaolan and the others looked at Junhui Shimabukuro anxiously.

"Yes, they have been missing for several days. At first I thought they just left the island together to play outside, but they didn't answer the phone calls, and they didn't know where they went after asking people nearby... ...I'm really a little worried..."

At this moment, Fangzheng was able to clearly discover that the expression of fear appeared on Shimabukuro Junhui's face.

Oh I got it.

After thinking for a while, Fangzheng suddenly understood why Shimabukuro Junhui said this to Hattori Heiji and the others.

Judging from what Shimabukuro Junhui said before, she doesn't seem to believe in those gods and ghosts. It is of course impossible to believe in any mystic under such circumstances.

As for her message on "Hell Communications", it was probably just a vent. After all, the website is secretive, and others cannot see other people's messages, and Junhui Shimabukuro obviously would not have thought that someone would be able to find her real identity through an Internet search. She obviously learned that her mother was killed After the truth, I got angry, and then suddenly thought of this rumor, so I wrote down those things with the mood of giving it a try.

But what Shimabukuro Junhui didn't expect was that this rumor actually came true. And because Fangzheng directly tied the three of them to stones and threw them into the sea to feed the fish for the sake of caution, this also resulted in the three of them not being alive or dead.

This frightened Shimabukuro Kimie.

From Fang Zheng's point of view, this is just an ordinary task. He saw the commission, investigated the target, killed it and threw it into the sea to finish.

You see, the whole process couldn't be simpler, without any suspense.

But for Shimabukuro Junhui, this is a horror movie - a girl opened the rumored death website because she heard the rumor, and then the person whose name was entered by her mysteriously disappeared the next day without a trace. A proper beginning of the urban monster talk! ! !

So the current Shimabukuro Junhui is just like the Ye Gong in the story of Ye Gong Haolong, who is so scared that he doesn't know what to do. And at this moment, she met the famous detectives who came here to investigate, so she would instinctively want to ask for help.

At least it would be great if they could find the bodies of those three people.

In this way, no one is alive, no one is dead, and Fangzheng said when he called her at the end, "They have already flowed to hell with this resentment"——so it is really scary to say that people are scary!

In the end, Conan and the others decided to go to Saori's house to see the situation, and Junhui Shimabukuro said that he would go with them after the festival, so they finally decided on the next itinerary.

In the evening, the festival finally began.

"There are so many people here..."

Looking at the bustling crowd around, Xiaolan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and Fang Zheng nodded. Looking around, you can see that many people are tourists from other places. It is conceivable that most of them came for this longevity woman ceremony.

"After all, you can live forever. Whether it's useful or not, there's no harm in seeing it."

At this time, Longevity Po also appeared in front of everyone, she was a thin old man with white hair.

"It's so small..."

Seeing this, Mori Kogoro also expressed emotion, while Hattori Heiji couldn't help complaining.

"It's just an old lady with heavy makeup."

However, what happened next took everyone by surprise. I saw the long-lived woman picked up a wooden pole and lit the flame, and then lit the paper door behind her.

Immediately afterwards, the flame spread from the paper door, and in the blink of an eye, it became numbers!

"I see."

Seeing this, Conan also understood.

"The numbers burned out are the winning numbers..."

"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan!"

At this moment, He Ye was pulling Xiaolan's clothes desperately.

"I, I, I... I hit it!"

"Hey?"

Hearing He Ye's words, Xiao Lan looked at her hurriedly, and Fang Zheng also turned her head away, only to see He Ye Zheng happily and excitedly holding a number plate, the number on it was exactly one of the numbers burnt out by the long-lived woman before. one!

"It's amazing, He Ye, you actually hit it!"

Compared to Xiaolan's excitement, Fangzheng seemed a little surprised.

Liar, Xiaolan didn't win?

You must know that in the world of Conan, Xiaolan is the emperor of Europe, and she wins whatever she smokes. But this time, she didn't win the lottery, instead she got married with Ye Zhong?

This is not scientific...

At this moment in the crowd, other people are also talking about it. Those who did not win are naturally downcast, while those who won the lottery are elated.

At this moment, the staff of the shrine also hurried forward to extinguish the flame on the paper door, and at the same time Junhui Shimabukuro appeared again.

"Please pay attention, we will officially issue the Dugong Arrow in an hour, please prepare to gather in front of Mermaid Waterfall immediately!"
