Chapter 347: Do Your Mermaids Use Electric Batons?

"Crack!"

In the dark forest, there was a burst of electric current.

After finding the target, Fujino immediately rushed to the nearby treetops.

Identify the target and lock the target.

The electric baton is ready.

He jumped down from the tree and hit Ebihara Sumi's neck with a thunderbolt from the sky.

The whole set of movements was smooth.

It is obvious that he is getting more and more proficient in using the electric baton.

After knocking down Ebihara Sumi, he did not act immediately.

This small forest is pitch black, and it is really a bit immoral to act.

What if someone sees it?

Of course, he doesn't care.

It's just that things will become more troublesome.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Fujino dragged one of Ebihara Sumi's long white legs and dragged him deep into the forest.

"Rustle, rustle!"

At this moment, Shimabukuro Kimie, who was waiting under the tree, suddenly heard a noisy sound.

"Is it coming?!"

Shimabukuro Kimie took a deep breath and looked in the direction of the sound.

Her plan was to strangle the other person with a rope first, and then use the swimming ring prepared in advance to strangle Ebihara's neck with the rope of the wooden stake guardrail next to the waterfall. Finally, when she returned to the festival, she would let her swim down the river to make it look like someone else had killed her.

This was her first time killing someone, so she was inevitably a little nervous.

But when she recalled that it was these people who burned her mother with fire and wanted to eat her body after her death, an unknown anger rushed straight to her brain stem.

She silently reached into her pocket and clenched the rope she had prepared in advance.

Just wait for the other party to show up.

Kill him directly when he is off guard.

"Sumi?"

Shimabukuro Kimie focused her eyes on the weeds where the sound came from, and tried to shout.

"Plop!"

First, a dull sound was heard.

A black shadow dragged another humanoid object out of the bushes.

Shimabukuro Kimie was stunned for a moment.

After she recovered, she squinted her eyes and saw the other person's appearance clearly with the help of the moonlight...

Xiao Hei? !

This description is still very vivid.

In front of her, there appeared a black man with a dark body, a black cloak, and a woman in his hand...

And the woman looked carefully...

Good guy!

It turned out to be the target she wanted to attack.

Ebihara Sumi!

She still had some impression of this Xiao Hei.

It was the Xiao Hei who kidnapped Menxie Saori a few days ago!

"..."

Fujino raised his eyes and glanced at Shimabukuro Kimie, but did not speak, just stared silently.

"..."

Shimabukuro Kimie also looked at that line of sight at this time, and was silent for a while.

She didn't know what to say... Could she say something like "have fun"?

Just a short silent stare, neither side spoke first.

Fujino took the lead and continued to drag Ebihara Sumi toward the depths of the forest.

And Shimabukuro Kimie watched Xiao Hei's back disappear into the forest.

Seeing that he did not turn back, she was relieved.

To be honest, she was still a little afraid of this Xiao Hei, after all, she was not sure whether this guy would knock her out and drag her away.

But now it seems that the other party should not intend to attack her.

Otherwise, they met once last time, and this time they met again... If he really had any ideas about her, he would definitely attack her directly.

"Huh..."

Shimabukuro Kimie breathed a sigh of relief and took out the rope from her pocket and threw it aside.

Unexpectedly, this Xiao Hei really helped her deal with this guy...

But why did this Xiao Hei do this?

She couldn't figure it out.

Reluctantly, she shook her head and planned to return to the Mermaid Waterfall to continue the festival.

There is still no news about the kidnapped Monkyo Saori, and it is likely that she is dead.

As for what will happen to Ebihara Sumi, she won't care so much.

She was going to do it herself.

But she didn't expect this person to show up and help her get rid of one person in advance.

This saved her from having to do it.

…………

On the other side, Fujino and a group of people went to the Mermaid Waterfall after visiting the night market.

At this time, many tourists had gathered on the stone stalls beside the lake.

The participating islanders and tourists stayed behind the guardrails pulled up with ropes, waiting for the arrival of the person in charge.

"Hua La La!"

The waterfall flowing down from a high place kept hitting the calm lake in front.

In front of the river, a few wooden sticks supported a simple shed with two bonfires in it.

Shimabukuro Kimie came to the middle of the two bonfires in her red and white shrine maiden costume.

She calmed down a little, holding three dugong arrows in her hands, then looked up at the crowd and said in a serious tone: "Now, please ask the three lucky guests tonight to come forward!"

"Okay! Right here!"

Yuyama Kazuha excitedly climbed over the rope guardrail and hurried forward.

On the side, Kuroe Naoko, who had met in the store before, also walked out of the crowd slowly, looking somewhat calm.

"There is another one!"

Shimabukuro Kimie looked around and did not see Sumi Ebihara as expected.

Although she knew that the last person could not be there.

But she still shouted twice symbolically: "There is one more person, is the last person here?"

"It's me!"

At this time, a middle-aged man in a messy suit and a drunken look suddenly walked out of the crowd.

"Huh?"

Hattori Heiji looked at the middle-aged man, was slightly stunned, and said strangely: "No, I remember that lady just won the prize, why is it this drunken middle-aged man who came out to receive the prize?"

"Hmm..."

Conan also looked around and said suspiciously: "I haven't seen her since just now."

"Maybe she gave it away."

Fujino stared at the waterfall behind Shimabukuro Kimie without changing his expression, and guessed: "Maybe it was sold."

"Huh?"

Shimabukuro Kimie was also slightly stunned.

But soon, she understood what was going on.

It should be that when Xiao Hei was dragging Sumi, he accidentally dropped the wooden sign, and he picked it up...

She actually knew this man by coincidence. He was the father of Monkyo Saori, a famous drunkard in the village named Monkyo Benzo.

To be honest, she didn't understand why this guy was still like this after his daughter was kidnapped.

But she didn't care so much. Anyway, the Dugong Arrow recognized the wooden sign but not the person, so it didn't matter if she handed the arrow to the other party.

After successfully handing over the Dugong Arrow, it came to the last link, which was the baptism of the "Light of Happiness".

It was called the Light of Happiness, but in fact it was just using fireworks to hit the sky, using the light of the fireworks to illuminate the Mermaid Waterfall and everyone present, including the person who drew the Dugong Arrow.

"Bang! Bang——"

The fireworks turned into clusters of light and rose into the sky, illuminating the quiet night sky.

But soon, there was a commotion among the crowd.

"What is that?!"

An old man in the crowd pointed to the Mermaid Falls.

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed and saw a figure hanging in the middle of the waterfall, his body constantly washed by the cold river water.

As the light ball rising into the sky exploded, the figure's appearance gradually emerged.

It was a woman with long hair draped over her shoulders, her body constantly swaying left and right as the river washed her. Her long skirt over her knees swayed with her legs, as if she was swimming upstream like a mermaid.

In the light of the fireworks, a black shadow stood on the top of the waterfall. Although her face could not be seen clearly, her eyes were looking around at the people below.

"Sumi!"

"Look, there seems to be a black shadow on the top of the waterfall!"

Someone in the crowd quickly recognized the other person's identity.

And the more sharp-eyed people saw the black shadow standing on the top of the waterfall.

"What?!"

Conan was stunned when he heard the words, and immediately raised his head to look at the top of the waterfall.

Coincidentally, a gorgeous firework bloomed, illuminating the black shadow.

It was a strange man in a black robe. Although there was light, his face was still pitch black. Only his two eyes were visible in the darkness, as if they were glowing.

As he watched, the black shadow fell straight down from the top of the waterfall, and then with a "plop" sound, he picked up a large piece of spray and plunged into the lake under the waterfall, disappearing without a trace.

"Sister Kimie!"

Conan was the first to react, and he stepped forward to pull Shimabukuro Kimie's hand: "As a shrine maiden of a nearby shrine, you should be familiar with the topography here, right?!"

"Ah?"

Shimabukuro Kimie was also a little confused when she saw Sumi Ebihara hanging on the waterfall.

She remembered that it was her plan to hang Ebihara's body on the waterfall!

Now her plan failed, why was the other party still hung up?

She was copied? ? ?

"Sister Kimie!!"

At this time, seeing that Shimabukuro Kimie had not recovered, Conan emphasized his tone again: "Take us there quickly!"

"Yes... yes!"

Shimabukuro Kimie recovered and nodded inexplicably. Her body was pulled by Conan uncontrollably, and she left the festival scene with Hattori Heiji and Fujino, Maori Kogoro, and Kuroe who had already reacted.

"Hey, Kimie, what happened?"

Fukuyama Rokuro, who was passing by, asked Shimabukuro Kimie who was led by Conan in confusion: "Why is it so noisy around here?"

"Sumi..."

Shimabukuro Kimie thought for a while and said: "Sumi was hung on the waterfall!"

"On the waterfall?"

Fukuyama Rokuro was obviously a little unconvinced and showed a strange expression.

But before Shimabukuro Kimie could explain more, Conan had already pulled her away.

Seeing this, Fukuyama Rokuro could only quickly follow.

…………

Soon, everyone came to the Mermaid Falls.

Fukuyama Rokuro and Hattori Heiji, who came with them, stepped forward and pulled Sumi Ebihara up with great effort.

At this time, Sumi Ebihara's clothes were wet by the river water, and her armpits and shoulders on both sides were fixed with a long rope. She was soaked in the ice water for a long time. Her face was now extremely pale, and her legs seemed to have lost their backbone and kept shaking.

"Shou Mei, did she commit suicide?!"

Shimabukuro Kimie looked at the pale-faced Hisumi Ebihara and subconsciously felt that she must be dead.

Although it was something that was expected, she still felt that it was better not to tell anyone about her encounter with Xiao Hei.

So, she pretended to be shocked and said: "Or rather, being given by that person just now..."

"People are not dead yet!"

Hattori Heiji stepped forward and felt Ebihara Hisumi's pulse, and shouted loudly.

"ah?"

Shimabukuro Junhui was stunned when he heard this.

Obviously she didn't expect that this person was not dead yet.

"Fujino, come here and see how she is doing now."

Hattori Heiji glanced at Ebihara Hisumi's limp feet, frowned, turned around and called Fujino directly.

He couldn't see the injury of this woman named Shou Mei.

Reminiscent of Fujino who had treated his leg before, he subconsciously said hello.

"Let me see……"

Fujino didn't say much. He slowly walked forward and took a look, stretched out his hand to frustrate her, then stood up and shook his head: "Her legs have been severely fractured by blunt force."

"Comminuted fracture?! Are you sure??"

Hattori Heiji was stunned when he heard this, "Are you sure it's a comminuted fracture? Then why is her leg not swollen...how strange?"

"yes."

Fujino nodded, his tone very sure.

Because it was he who personally carried out the transformation work of Mermaid.

Does he still know if his leg is comminuted or not?

As for swelling, that thing can only be done by someone who is not careful enough and can knock bone spurs out of the bones.

Hattori Heiji quickly stepped forward and took a look: "Then she was dying...ahem, was tortured with blunt force before being knocked unconscious?"

"Well, I'm afraid so."

Fujino held his chin together, as if he was appreciating a work of art, looking at the broken legs, and said solemnly: "And the person who smashed her leg bones was very skillful. He must be very knowledgeable in medicine or a good beater. Being able to break a person’s leg bone like this is simply genius.”

"Haha...it's not like being a genius, right?"

Hattori Heiji glanced at Fujino speechlessly.

Why did he feel that this guy was praising the murderer?

And what the hell is that feeling of appreciating art?

Hattori Heiji sighed and looked at the interrupted legs curiously.

"Mermaid, it must be a mermaid who did it!"

At this time, Naoko, the black general who came with her, pointed at Ebihara Hisumi's leg and showed a look of horror: "This is definitely done by a mermaid!"

"Mermaid did it?"

Conan also came forward at this time and began to look at Ebihara Hisumi's body curiously.

Soon, he discovered something unusual on her neck.

On Ebihara's neck, there was obviously a purple mark from being burned.

Immediately, he rejected the idea of ​​any mermaid killing people.

Does your fish family use electric batons?

In his opinion, these were the traces of electric batons.

Obviously, it is impossible for a mermaid to use an electric baton.

After all, electric batons and electric batons conduct electricity.

He probably had to electrocute himself to death before the mermaid could use the electric baton.
