"Oh, Jun Hui, you are so naive. That's because you only regard Mingzhang as your grandma, so you don't believe in Mingzhang's power."
Hearing the teasing laughter, Shimabukuro Kimie turned around and found that the person speaking was his childhood sweetheart Ebihara Hisumi.
"Mingzhi has eaten mermaid meat! She has definitely eaten it!" Hisumi Ebihara said firmly with a smile on her face: "After all, wasn't the body of a mermaid discovered three years ago?"
"Human...mermaid's corpse...!?"
As soon as these words came out, even Conan and Hattori Heiji became uncomfortable. Only Karasawa seemed to have not heard and admired the unique style of the shrine here from time to time.
Under the explanation of "Know-It-All" Xiaolan, everyone also recalled the shocking news three years ago.
Well, Xiaolan can definitely afford the title of "know-it-all". For all kinds of news and events all year round, Mouri Kogoro and Conan can always get answers from Xiaolan when they are confused.
This intelligence gathering ability and memory, coupled with the vast scope of contact, ranging from national events to celebrity gossip, as long as it has been in newspapers and TV, is within the scope of Xiaolan's knowledge, and it can definitely be regarded as intelligence gathering.
Expert.
In this respect, Xiaolan's status is like Watson in Sherlock Holmes. Although she is not good at reasoning, she can always provide help in various places. Sometimes her inadvertent actions can become the key to solving the case.
Along with Xiaolan's explanation, everyone also learned about the news that was reported by the TV station three years ago.
Three years ago, a fire broke out in a warehouse on the island. After the fire was put out, people found a strange charred corpse inside.
"That is purely the result of the TV station exaggerating to attract everyone's attention..."
"Don't kid yourself. Didn't you who were there also see it with your own eyes at that time?"
Speaking of this, Ebihara Hisumi's expression suddenly became fanatical, "That weird corpse, and the broken bones with very strange shapes..."
Looking at Ebihara Hisumi's enthusiastic expression, Karasawa felt like he was facing a fanatical believer.
"Okay, shut up, Shou Mei."
At this moment, one of the young men put their hands on Ebihara Hisumi's shoulders, stopping the other person from continuing, "They are not from our island, and they won't believe it if you tell them this."
"Lu Lang..."
"Rokuro, why are you here too?" Shimabukuro Kime looked a little strange and asked, "Don't you need to help the family anymore?"
"We're already busy over there. I heard that a detective from Tokyo came to your place, so I came to check on the situation."
After the man named Lu Lang answered Jun Hui's question, he immediately turned to look at the crowd and said: "If you want to find Shazhi, coming here is a waste of time, why not go directly to Shazhi's house.
Of course, this is only possible if Saori’s alcoholic father doesn’t kick you out..."
After saying that, Rokuro took Ebihara Hisumi and the two of them away together, while Hattori Heiji on the side looked at the two people walking away and muttered: "Are you really childhood sweethearts? Saori has disappeared, unexpectedly
Is everyone anxious?”
"Well... maybe everyone is used to it."
Shimabukuro Kime smiled helplessly and said: "You also heard that Saori's father is an alcoholic. The two of them are very difficult to deal with. Saori will choose to run away from home when they have a quarrel..."
"Ms. Shimabukuro, could you please take us to visit the Saori family?" Mouri Kogoro asked in due time.
"No problem!" Shimabukuro Kimie simply agreed to Mouri Kogoro's request, "But you have to wait first and let me finish the festival matters..."
"Is it the annual festival where the "Dugong Arrow" is drawn?" Heye Wenyan's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but ask.
"Well, that's it, but rather than a festival, I feel more like a lottery, just like those lottery tickets with numbers in the shopping mall.
If the number in your hand matches the number announced at the festival, you can get the arrow, but the lottery ticket has been replaced by a purchased wooden sign."
After explaining, Shimabukuro Kimie seemed to have thought of something, and then took out two wooden signs from the miko uniform and said with a smile: "I happened to have an old couple here who made a temporary decision in the morning to cancel the number plates returned by the lottery. You guys
Let’s try our luck too?”
"ah?"
"Although you don't need to take the divination too seriously, as the rumors say, you may be able to stay young and beautiful forever~"
The two looked at each other, both feeling a little moved, but there were only two number plates, and there were three girls among them. For a moment, they were hesitant, wondering whether they should accept it or not.
"Take it, I don't need this." Ayako saw the hesitation of the two at this time, and naturally understood what they were worried about.
She held Tang Ze's arm, smiled a little sheepishly and said, "What I want is for He Xian Yi to grow old together hand in hand. That's enough."
As soon as these words came out, and seeing the charming look on Tang Ze's face as he took the initiative to reach out and clasped his fingers with his, it was immediately Xiao Lan and He Ye Xian's turn to look at each other.
So sour! So sour!!
After all, the original intention of hoping to get the "Dugong Arrow" is not to gain the favor of the one he loves.
Being able to grow old together with your sweetheart is a romantic thing that can instantly melt a girl's heart.
Thinking of this, Toyama and Ye couldn't help but think of Hattori Heiji's unintelligible words before, and couldn't help but feel resentful.
Xiaolan on the side thought of how Xinyi had not met her since she had confessed to him, and she had not yet met her, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss in her heart.
Especially after seeing the dog food that Sister Ayako spread at this moment, Xiaolan felt envious and felt a little resentful in her heart.
She also really wants to spend more time with Shinichi, just like Ayako and the others, holding hands, hugging, and traveling together, instead of just giving her a verbal word and disappearing...
"Heiji/Shinichi, you idiot!!"
Almost speaking in unison, the two young girls blurted out all their resentments towards their sweethearts into words.
Then he looked at Ye and Xiaolan and couldn't help but smile in agreement, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
Only Hattori Heiji, who looked confused, and Conan, who looked confused, were left.
"What happened? What happened to me?"
"I don't know either, and it doesn't matter if you get scolded, but I'm not here now, so why do I get scolded?"
How could I provoke you again!?
The two straight men looked at each other, with confusion in their eyes.
