On the side, Conan and Ai Haibara exchanged glances.

Then, the two of them came to the storage room of diving supplies together.

"Have you and Gengqian discovered anything?"

While asking, Conan came to the cabinet where the clothes were placed and searched for something that might be evidence inside.

(?へ?.) Hey~

Imagine if the person doing this is not a primary school student but a high school student, his behavior is quite perverted...

Haibara Ai looked at a detective with disgust and said:

"We found some messy shoe prints in the backyard where we flushed the submersible equipment, but the top guy said that it would not prove anything just by that."

"Uh, that's what he said..."

Conan pondered for a while, took out his cell phone and turned over and handed it over, saying, "Be safe, please come and go again and help me print my shoe prints. I also need to investigate the clues in this room as soon as possible."

"No, the first brother has taken it."

Haibara Ai waved his hand and refused, reminding him:

"Hey, the point is not this, right? Do you think your current behavior is very contradictory? You can't reveal your true identity, and you can't help but keep showing it here. And aren't you doubting him? Why don't you just put this in a direct way?

Let him handle the case?"

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Conan's movements of searching for the diving suit were obviously stiff:

"If it were the case before, I would probably say that the method of solving the case by Gengqian was too simple and crude, and it might lead to unjust, false and wrong cases, but now..."

He pondered for a few seconds, and then said:

"It should be that I don't want to lose to him all the time, especially in reasoning."

A strange desire to win or lose, but fortunately, the number one is not the enemy... Haibara Ai sighed in his heart, then yawned:

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you. I either took a bus or rushed from the morning. I'm a little tired. I'll be back to the homestay to rest later."

...

Just as Conan and Ai Haibara were secretly communicating in the storage room.

In the living room of the diving shop, Ye Gengichi also briefly learned about the experience of encountering sharks during diving from Yamaguchi Kimiko.

The location where the treasure hunter was attacked was the deeper area on the south side of the underwater palace...

As Conan analyzed, the murderer used air pressure to cause the plastic bag containing fish blood to leak, which attracted sharks.

But the specific time is impossible to grasp no matter what. What the murderer can predict in advance is the depth of the dive.

In other words, his purpose is to prevent the treasure hunter from finding the treasure hidden in the underwater palace.

The treasure guarding sect of Shenhai Island?

The descendants of those two female pirates?

Or maybe he wanted to take the treasure alone, but he had not yet grasped the exact clues, so he tried to interfere with or even kill other treasure hunters' tourism section chief... Iwanaga Castle.

No hatred;

There is no grudge... All that is pure greed.

If the facts are the same as my own guess, the plan to study the palm mark this time is probably going to fail again.

This conclusion was drawn.

Ye Geng’s interest in solving the case was reduced by half, and his thoughts automatically transitioned to treasure hunting.

Although the two materials, gold and silver, use the lowest amount of props compared to other materials, if they are antiques, their value will be at least ten or even dozens of times more...

"Xiaolan, Yuanzi, Xiao Ai and Conan will trouble you to take care of you. Well... If you have nothing to do, go back to the homestay to rest. I'll go to another place to have a look."

After Ye Gengyi greeted the two girls, he stepped out of the diving shop.

"Huh... I finally left."

Yamaguchi Kimiko breathed a sigh of relief. After noticing that the three of them, including Ma Yuan, Chiaki, all looked at each other, she said depressedly:

"What? Don't you think you are very oppressive? You are quite handsome, but... I was stared at me and asked questions like that. I always feel like this is the case when I met a shark in the sea."

"I heard what you said..."

Ma Yuan Qianxia held her chin with one hand and murmured: "I do feel this way."

Ran Maori and Yuanko Suzuki looked at each other and did not respond in a tacit understanding.

Is there any way to point out the identity of the expert of Ye Gengyi Technical Association at this time, wouldn’t it be like making it clear that we think there is something wrong with your diving shop?

Alas... Why do you always encounter murders whenever you go out with detectives and technical association experts?

...

"Ah snee..."

Ye Gengyi, who was riding a bicycle towards the coast, suddenly sneezes.

Has caught a cold?

He slowed down his riding speed.

Ye Xiaobai was asked to control the nanorobot to conduct a test on his respiratory tract.

The results show that everything is normal.

"strangeness……"

Ye Gengyi said silently and came straight to the shade of a tree closest to the sea.

Looking into the distance, you can see Laiqin Island hazy in the fog.

Ye Geng held the palm of his hand in a virtual grasp, and the electric shock glove and a pitch-black box instantly formed particles and reorganized.

Inside is a set of semi-automated diving suits and matching oxygen equipment.

Originally, he was preparing to use it when the ship sank, but now it seems that the radiation range of Conan's "God of Death" this time should be on the island.

Ye Gengyi used his hands together, grabbed his clothes and diving suit respectively, and quickly changed his clothes using the particle function of the storage compartment.

After flexibly switching, I came to the beach and jumped into the water.

Quickly dive to a 20-meter position.

The originally sporadic fish became denser.

Ye Gengyi had no idea of ​​enjoying the seabed scenery and directly activated the turbocharger on his back. He swam towards Laiqin Island like an arrow.

When I arrived at the cliff under the sea, the light around me became deep and dark.

You can vaguely see the residue of stones washed away by undercurrents constantly drifting in the winding and irregular sea water.

Ye Gengyi continued to travel forward.

The waves brought about were like a hand that lifted up the fog, causing the palace sleeping on the bottom of the sea to gradually reveal in front of you.

However, the closer the distance, the more you can't see the entire building.

Especially on the south side of the palace, about 60 meters away, there were four sharks hovering around and preying on nearby.

It seems that I am not ready to leave for a while.

Ye Gengyi raised his arm and pointed it at that side.

...Xiaobai, assisted aiming, calculates water flow and resistance.

[Received, sir, in calibration, judge that the angle has no correction amplitude, it has been locked... Is it shooting?]

Um.

As Ye Gengyi's heart fell.

A cylindrical shape, similar to a rocket, with bullets with two propellers installed vertically and horizontally at the center, spinning at high speed, shooting at one of the lucky sharks.

After 3 seconds.

The bullet drilled into its mouth accurately.

But nothing happened.

The four sharks were also stunned.

Just as they were about to swim over and greet the strange undersea visitor.

Mutational bulge.

I saw that the shark that swallowed the bullet suddenly swelled like a balloon.

Immediately afterwards, a ball of white unknown substance emerged directly from its mouth, and after contacting a large area of ​​sea water, it expanded rapidly.

In an instant, it occupied the sea area, a space of dozens of meters in a radius.

"It's slower than expected. If you have good luck and don't enter your stomach, you can save your life..."
