Under Qin Zhibo's spotlight, the police finally noticed the existence of Hattori Heiji.
Realizing that the police could not see him because his skin was too dark, several black lines appeared on Hattori Heiji's forehead, making him invisible in the darkness again.
In this way, the indigenous police from Fukui Prefecture took over the investigation of the murder scene, and other detectives had to retreat to the house to continue investigating the case.
According to the memories of the Ebina couple, Kuroe Naoko was the first to arrive here and left after not staying in the wake for long.
In addition, Kuroe Naoko's "Dugong Arrow" also disappeared, so Hattori Heiji and Mori Kogoro unanimously guessed that it was the murderer of Ebina Hisumi who invited Kuroe Naoko out to kill her.
"But fish scales fell off the murder scene."
"Isn't the murderer a mermaid?"
Mao Lilan, who was afraid of strange legends, leaned against Yuan Shan and Ye, looking frightened.
Hattori Heiji and Conan looked helplessly and said angrily: "Fool, how can a mermaid wear boots?"
This reminded Qin Zhibo, who was silent on the side, that the mermaid in "The Mermaid" wears boots.
"I think the murderer may have walked along the wave line, and then walked to the fishing net where he and Naoko met, killed the person, and then left the scene along the coastline."
While Hattori Heiji was talking about the murderer's tactics, he quietly observed Kadori Benzo's reaction.
However, Kadari Benzo did not panic at all, and just burped lightly.
He is indeed a master
In Hattori Heiji's view, this Monaribe Benzo usually used alcoholism to disguise himself, but in fact he was just a murderer who didn't take human life seriously.
Damn it! I will definitely bring you to justice!
While waiting for the police investigation, the guests who came to Ebina's house for the vigil continued to eat.
During the banquet, the police inspected everyone's belongings, and the key inspection item was the "dugong arrow."
But it is a pity that except for the "Dugong Arrow" drawn yesterday by Toyama Kazuha and Kadoba Benzo, no one took Kuroe Naoko's arrow.
Hattori Heiji felt nervous when he saw Toyama Kazuha carefully retracting the arrow under his clothes after the inspection, and glancing at Toyama Kazuha's Monori Benzo without leaving any trace.
"He Ye, you must never leave my side."
Looking at the handsome back of Hattori Heiji, Toyama Kazuha's face turned red.
Back at the dining table, Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinko discussed.
First of all, judging from the footprints, the murderer returned to the sea and left after killing the people. In this way, even if he came to watch the wake, he would not leave any evidence on his body.
Secondly, although Kuroe Naoko's parents are out of town, they are still alive and did not suffer a shipwreck, the same situation as Ebina Hisumi's.
In this case, the motive for the murder becomes even more intriguing.
"What a pity. If only we could know who bought the number plate last night."
Hattori Heiji, who was suffering from the lack of evidence to investigate Monori Benzo, sighed, which was heard by Shimabukuro Kimie who was sitting next to him.
"This is easy. I will mark the holder of each number on the register every year."
"Are you going to look at that roster?"
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji and Conan were overjoyed, feeling like they had seen the dawn of solving the case.
"Of course! Let's go now."
Hattori Heiji and Conan quickly stood up, Toyama and Ye followed suit, and Mao Lilan helped the tipsy Kogoro along.
There was also Qin Zhibo who followed silently at the back.
"Strange. What happened?"
"I remember putting it in this drawer."
Shimabukuro Kimie rummaged through the drawer and took out a stack of rosters, but this year's roster was the only one missing.
"Could it be that your great-grandmother took it away?"
Faced with the hypothesis proposed by Hattori Heiji, Shimabukuro Kimie immediately rejected it, "This is absolutely impossible."
Qin Zhibo: "."
"Does anyone else know that this roster is placed here?" Conan asked next to him.
"Almost everyone on the island knows about this." Shimabukuro Kimie said as he stood up, "For the sake of caution, I'd better go to another room to search."
Seeing Shimabukuro Kimie walking outside alone, Qin Zhibo felt that it was time for a showdown. Just as he was about to follow him outside, Mao Lilan, Toyama Kazuye volunteered to help search together.
Shimabukuro Kimie: "Okay then."
Qin Zhibo: In the way
The three of them left together. Qin Zhibo couldn't talk about those shocking things in front of the two little girls, so he could only suppress it for the time being.
Anyway, there is still a lot of time tonight.
Looking back, Hattori Heiji and Conan had already opened the rosters over the years without permission and found many familiar names.
"Oh~"
"There are quite a few people who have been here, including the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the president of the Bank of Japan, and the president of a financial group."
"It turns out that everyone wants to live forever~"
Hattori Heiji's tone was a bit mocking, but he didn't know that immortality is the ultimate dream of mankind.
When desires such as power and money are satisfied, what should we pursue next?
Qin Shihuang, who lived thousands of years ago, had already given the correct answer
Conan flipped through the roster in his hand and looked at it boredly.
Suddenly, a familiar name appeared on the paper.
Miyano Shiho
Conan's body froze, and Qin Zhibo, who was standing behind, also noticed it and lowered his head to check.
Miyano Shiho!
Looking at the names on the roster, Conan recalled that he had heard them somewhere.
By the way! That guy Haibara’s real name is Miyano Shiho.
Conan, who felt like there was a main line to follow, was about to investigate carefully, but then he thought about it and felt that Haibara Ai was not the kind of person who wanted to be young and beautiful forever, otherwise the character would have collapsed.
Probably just the same name and surname.
Conan smiled helplessly, and just as he was about to turn the page, the roster in his hand suddenly took off.
Looking up, it turned out that Qin Zhibo reached out and took away the roster, holding it in his hand and looking at it carefully.
In Qin Zhibo's eyes, of course he knew that Miyano Shiho was Haibara Ai's real name.
Not only that, Qin Zhibo even knew that the real names of Saburo Uozuka and Kurosawa Jin next to him were the two members of the black organization!
If there is only one name, it may be a coincidence. How can it be a coincidence if three names appear together?
This shows that Miyano Shiho has been here with those two people.
Qin Zhibo flipped the roster to the front and took a look. It was the roster from the year before last, that is, two years ago.
At the same time, Dr. Ali's house.
Haibara Ai came up from the basement with coffee and asked Dr. Agasa who was watching TV on the sofa: "It's a long vacation these days, why don't you see Edogawa and those children from the Junior Detective Team coming to play?"
"Ah, oh"
A little surprised by Haibara Ai's question, Dr. Agasa reacted for a moment before answering, "Kudo seems to be going with Mr. Mori's family, Hattori Heiji, Toyama Kazuha, and Mr. Qin from Osaka." Went on a trip to America Island in Fukui Prefecture.”
American Island.
Hearing the name of this island, Haibara Ai recalled in his mind that he had also landed on the island famous for its mermaids.
With those two people.
At that time, I had just graduated from college and returned to China to take over the "Silver Bullet" research materials left behind by my parents.
The place mentioned in one of the specially formatted documents is the American Island.
However, in this document, the American island is called the experimental site "H-2".
