For a moment, Baijiu lost all connections with its puppets.
But soon, that connection came back, and then, like a pencil drawing, the outline of Shiraijiu appeared around Shiraijiu's transparent soul ball, as if it was lifting him up.
Then, pencil-like lines appeared out of thin air, outlining messy lines to form a sketch-like painting. In the painting, a boat gradually appeared, with the sky above the boat and the sea below, and a person on the boat leaning against the fence.
, with a cigarette in his mouth, and there are two lines on the cigarette, indicating that it is smoke.
After the picture is composed, the messy lines are then hidden, and the pen-like lines are outlined along those pencil lines. Then the pencil lines are removed, and the messy draft becomes clean and tidy.
Then, the sky turned blue, the water was deep, the wooden deck was light yellow, and the person in front had black hair and was wearing a light blue suit.
The next moment, the world became hazy again.
The sound of crashing waves, the beeping of ships, and the chirping of unknown seabirds that occasionally flew over the sky were heard all at once.
Ahead, the smoke above the cigarette in the man's mouth began to sway with the flow of air, and the sea water below also began to flow. There was a slight clammy feeling on the skin caused by the mist caused by the wind. The man in front sighed.
"Oh! It's really..."
Bai Jingjiu blinked and turned his neck awkwardly, and then he saw Mao Lilan and Conan standing next to him, both looking at the man in front of him.
Oh, that person is Mouri Kogoro.
Bai Jingjiu lowered his eyes and raised his hands to cover his chest.
The warm texture brought by the two resentments, the softness of the fabric, and the slight tremor inside simulated the beating of the heart... It was a puppet, but at this moment, she also felt the real human feeling - fear
, and fear.
Originally, her best emotions were hatred towards her parents and self-pity - those were the last emotions she had when she lay in a bathtub full of water in an empty apartment and drowned herself.
Ah...how did she remember this...the wine is clearly in her body...
……Liquor……
【Shh——】
Deep in my heart, the young man's clear voice sounded.
[I seem to have gotten something amazing. I need to sleep for a while to digest it. You can push it outside now and I will talk about it when I wake up. 】
It feels like nothing is wrong...
Speaking of which, what happened just now? Why does this dead body still have feelings of fear and fear? Why did she come out...
Ahead, in the thick fog, there is a small island faintly emerging, that is... Yueying Island.
…
After the boat docked, the group got off the boat and walked towards the Yueying Island Village Office.
This time, the Mouri Detective Agency was dispatched because Kogoro Mouri received a mysterious letter before, and finally received a call the day before yesterday, asking him to go to a place called Tsukikage Island to investigate, regardless of whether he agreed or not.
, the handling fees for the investigation were all charged to his account.
Although Mouri Kogoro often said that he would not accept unexpected windfalls, but when this happened to him, he could not accept it with peace of mind. In the end, he took his family to Tsukikage Island.
Shiraijiu remembered that he and Conan had peeked at the content of the letter. The content was [On the night of the next full moon, shadows will begin to disappear again on Yueying Island]. The signature was the same as the person who called before.
Keiji Aso.
Aso...
This surname reminded her of the child Ryo Aso. Speaking of which, Baijiu had left him alone for a long time after leaving him in a suburban villa, and she didn't know what the child looked like now.
...Huh? You haven't cared about him for a long time...?
It seems...it feels like I just chatted with him?
A strong sense of disobedience enveloped Shiro Jingjiu for a moment, but soon after Shiro Jingjiu put the incident behind him, this sense of disobedience disappeared again.
Well, they are incompatible with the world itself, and it is normal to have something wrong. She is outside, so she doesn't have to think about these useless things in detail.
On the road, Conan, who was walking in front, seemed to feel something. He turned back and looked at Shiraijiu: "Shirai, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Bai Jingjiu blinked and shook his head, expressionless as always, "It's not a big deal."
"Is that so?" Conan looked at Shiraijiu whose aura had dropped strangely. He didn't know what to say, so he turned around and continued to follow Xiaolan. He pulled Xiaolan's sleeves and waited for Xiaolan to wonder.
When she looked down at him, she whispered: "Sister Xiaolan, Shirai seems to be a little uncomfortable. Is he seasick?"
"Ah? Really?" Xiaolan quickly turned to look at Bai Jingjiu. Sure enough, she saw that the little girl's face was as pale as ever. The key was that she felt inexplicably weaker than usual.
This is incredible!
Xiaolan immediately came over and squatted down, looking up at Bai Jingjiu with worry on her face: "Xiaojiu, what's wrong with you?"
"..." Bai Jingjiu glanced at Conan in front of him who had a "I have no idea" expression on his face, then looked at Mao Lilan and replied softly: "I'm fine. I just feel a little uncomfortable after sitting on the boat for a long time. I'll be fine in a while."
,real."
Don't worry about it, just send her to the local hospital. This not only causes trouble and delays things, but also makes her worry about whether her body will be worn during the examination.
Although the last poisoning incident involved going to the hospital for examination, the person who controlled the body at that time was liquor. Naturally, she could understand how to perfectly deceive the examination machines and doctors. But she, Shirai Shuko, her memory bank is not like
Liquor is as big as liquor, I think I can’t fool the doctor...
"Really..." Xiaolan's worry did not subside because of Bai Jingjiu's comfort. She raised her hand and touched Bai Jingjiu's forehead - well, it was as cold as ever. From this point of view, it seemed that it was really no different from before.
Both.
I don't have a fever, and I can't see anything else. At most, I just feel low energy... It seems like it's just like what Xiaojiu said, I'm just a little uncomfortable, and it'll get better after some time.
Xiaolan was still worried, but at least she didn't make a fuss. She just took Bai Jingjiu's hand and slowed down and walked forward together.
From now on, she must always pay attention to Xiaojiu's physical condition!
Shiraijiu:……
Not necessary.
Yueying Island, village office.
Mouri Kogoro, Mouri Ran, Conan and Shirai Ku stood at the previous generation.
"We can't go together. I want to ask someone, is it okay?"
The younger brother from the previous generation looked at these people strangely, and did not say to search immediately, nor did he refuse directly. Instead, he asked first: "Who are you looking for? For what reason?"
"Ah, that's it." Mouri Kogoro said as he took out the letter and handed it out, "A few days ago, a man named Aso Keiji sent me this letter from here. So now I
