DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG!!
With the continuous sound of drums, the festival officially began.
At this moment, the shrine is already full of tourists. Some people are here to enjoy the festival, while others are waiting for the lottery afterwards, hoping to get the "Dugong Arrow" that can make people live forever.
It was very lively with a huge crowd of people.
However, because the venue was specially circled with ropes, tourists stood on the outside and the part near the shrine could be clearly seen.
Along with the sound of drums, the single door was slowly opened by the priest, revealing an old figure with his back to everyone.
"It's time to come out soon!" Hattori Heiji looked at the figure behind the door and said.
Conan looked at the back of the short figure in the room and asked curiously: "Is the man inside the man named Mingzhu who is said to have eaten mermaid flesh?"
At this time, the old woman named Mingzhang walked out slowly. She was very short and looked very small, with heavy makeup on her face.
"Mate!"
"Destiny has arrived!!"
Someone shouted from time to time in the crowd, and some old people clasped their hands together and looked very pious.
But in the eyes of Tang Ze and others, the other party is just a short old woman wearing heavy makeup and her body is stooped due to osteoporosis.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Mingzhu lit one end of the stick prepared in his hand and slowly placed it on the paper door of the shrine to slowly burn.
This move shocked Conan, Hattori Heiji and the tourists who were attending the festival for the first time.
As the paper door burned, everyone gradually saw the doorway. It turned out that the paper door was lit on fire to display the number drawn.
In this regard, when faced with the results of the lottery, some people are naturally happy and some are sad.
And He Ye is one of the lucky ones, she is cheering happily at the moment.
After lighting the paper door, Mingzhu slowly entered the house, and Shimabukuro Kimie, wearing a red and white miko uniform, slowly walked out.
"Then please take a short break. The "Dugong Arrows" will be distributed in an hour. At that time, please move to the Mermaid Falls!"
After the draw, Shimabukuro Kimie, who was wearing a miko uniform, slowly walked out and announced to everyone.
"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go to Mermaid Falls." Heye said happily, holding the number plate: "Eternal beauty and youth are mine."
"It's better not to be too complacent, Kazuha, immortality may not be a good thing," Hattori Heiji said, pouring cold water on the side.
"Haha, Heiji, don't worry, I will help you bury your bones in the future."
"Ha...then do I still need to thank you?" Hattori Heiji drooped his eyes and looked speechless.
"You guys go to the waterfall first, I have something to do."
Just when everyone was about to move to the Mermaid Waterfall to wait for the "Dugong Arrows" to be distributed, Karasawa spoke.
"Well? Tang Ze Criminal, what can I do for you?" Xiaolan asked curiously.
"Well, that's right, there's a little matter that needs to be sorted out." Tang Ze said with a smile.
"Then we'll wait for you at the Mermaid Falls." Ayako saw that Karasawa seemed to have something to do, and she didn't ask him what he was going to do, but just nodded to show her understanding.
"Well, I'll be back later." Tang Ze waved his hand, said goodbye to everyone, and disappeared into the sea of people after a while.
"Hey, what do you think Karasawa-senpai is going to do?" Conan tapped Hattori Heiji's knee and looked suspiciously in the direction where Karasawa had disappeared.020
"Who knows, Karasawa-senpai's actions are always so unpredictable." Hattori Heiji shrugged.
"Did you find any clues?" Conan couldn't help but ask.
"Um, probably not." Hattori Heiji became less calm after hearing Conan's guess. The two looked at each other, and both understood the meaning conveyed in the other's eyes.
Join forces!
Although the two of them are also competitors, their common "enemy" is Karasawa Criminal, who steadily suppresses both of them.
They don't want to be just spectators, watching Tang Ze solve the case while they themselves are still ignorant.
Therefore, although joining forces is somewhat ineffective, they are not willing to be just bystanders!
At the very least, you can’t lose too late to lose!
"Without further ado, let's review the previous clues and see if there is anything we missed?" Hattori Heiji suggested.
"Yes!" Conan nodded slowly, "Then, let's get started without further ado!"
...........
Just as Conan and the two worked together to sort out clues, hoping to find something.
On the other side, Karasawa said goodbye to the group of people, walked out of the crowd alone, and walked straight towards the shrine.
Target, Shimabukuro Kime!
That's right, in this case, Tang Ze planned to come to the door and break through directly.
There was no way, although Tangze had imagined many responses based on the information on this case.
But after thinking about it for a while, Tang Ze found that in the current situation, he really had to rely on a sharp knife to cut through the mess, force a breakthrough, and go head-on!
Because the safe layout situation is when the situation is not urgent, at least the victim must be guaranteed that his life is not in danger for a while.
But now Saori Kadori is missing. If we don't hurry up, we will see her body floating down the river from the Mermaid Falls later.
For Tang Ze, as long as someone dies, his purpose has failed. He has not saved the tragedy, and at the same time, the rewards will definitely shrink drastically, just like the gap between a rich man and a beggar.
But there is no way, the choice is never on Tang Ze's side, because the cost of committing crimes is too low compared to preventing crimes.
It's so cheap that you can commit a crime anytime, anywhere, just by grabbing the items around you in the heat of the moment.
But those who uphold justice need to spend thousands of times more energy to find evidence and fight with wits and courage.
So after thinking about it, Tang Ze found that going straight to the point might be the best way.
"Oh, I'm going to be super awesome again. It's not that I don't keep a low profile, it's just that the situation doesn't allow it."
Tangze, who had no AC points, sighed with a "compassionate" expression: "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. It seems that I am just pretending."
I really don’t want to be in the limelight!
You don’t even know how hard it is for me to stand out in the limelight. Behind me, I was regarded as my rival by two high school detectives who were highly talented. I always wanted to catch up with myself.
I am forced to maintain my character and try my best to cheat my colleagues, and study hard late at night.
When the other side is dealing with a case, they have to rack their brains to arrange the case, and at the same time they have to create their own relaxation and casualness.
From time to time, we have to find an opportunity to slap a wave of "tricksters" who are delusional about getting the upper hand, so that they don't think that they are good again and start jumping around again.
Oh, it’s so hard for me!!
