A Sorcerer in the Detective World

"Okay, Lord Yunwen."

Cheng Shi responded and floated into the nearby woods, searching for it.

Not long after, Chengshi flew back to Shu Yunwen, pointed to the woods on the right, and the voice came into Shu Yunwen's mind: "Sir Yunwen, I found Miss Jun Hui in the woods."

"You mean Shimabukuro Kime?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the simple tombstone in front of him. He remembered what Shimabukuro Kime had said about the "mermaid skeleton" being buried in the mountain, and he suddenly understood. "So, the person in this tomb is Miss Jun Hui's mother?"

"I'm afraid so." Cheng Shi nodded, and then he disappeared into the cemetery to take a look, and the voice came into Shu Yunwen's mind again, "It's strange... Lord Yunwen, in this tomb, there is only one whose lower body was shattered. Besides the skeleton, there is another skeleton... Also, next to the two skeletons, there are photos of a man and a woman, who seem to be Miss Jun Hui's parents..."

"You mean, the other skeleton is Miss Jun Hui's father?"

Shu Yunwen couldn't help but frowned after hearing Cheng Shi's words.

By the way, he remembered that Shimabukuro Kimie's father was killed together with Yoshiko Tokyo, Masaru Fukuyama, and Ritsuko Fukuyama, and the bodies were indeed not in the sunken ship...

But when did Shimabukuro Kimie fish out his father’s body?

In addition, since she found the place where his father died, she should also have found the bodies of Kako Tokyo and others. Why didn't she tell the people on the island?

Shu Yunwen was confused and couldn't figure it out. Tsukamoto Sumi looked at her boyfriend from the side and couldn't help but ask: "Yunwen-kun, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about the owner of this tomb?"

"Uh... no." Shu Yunwen came back to his senses, thinking of Kobayashi Masaki's previous plea and not revealing the identity of the tomb owner, he shook his head and said, "Okay, let's not talk about the tomb anymore, let's continue Come down the mountain! Well..."

Shu Yunwen turned to look at Loli Ai and changed the subject tactfully: "...We still have to take pictures of Haiyuan!"

"Well……"

The corners of Loli'ai's mouth twitched as she lay innocently at gunpoint, and she glared at Shu Yunwen faintly, as if she felt the malice coming from the whole world...

…

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in front of the ruins of the warehouse behind the shrine.

Conan, Hattori Heiji and the others stood in front of Uncle Mori and said softly: "So, there is nothing discovered here?"

"Yes! After a fire, everything in the warehouse was burned to the ground. It's too difficult to find clues!" Uncle Maoli sighed with emotion, and then said, "...By the way, the forensics personnel are They said that they found a few more fish scales on the road leading to the sea behind the warehouse, but not many..."

"What? Fish scales again?" Conan and Hattori Heiji frowned together, "Is the murderer still setting up the illusion of a mermaid now? It's really boring..."

Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Uncle Mori were chatting. Suddenly, Xiaolan ran out from the back door of the shrine and said anxiously: "Dad, the people at the shrine just received a strange phone call, saying that they were very grateful to the shrine for willing to bring dugongs." The hundred yen they paid was very valuable, and they also said that their son’s surgery went very smoothly..."

After Xiaolan finished speaking, Conan, Hattori, and Uncle Maori all changed their expressions: "What did you say? Someone spent one million yen to buy a dugong arrow?!"

"Did you ask the person on the phone when and from whom they bought the Dugong Arrow?"

Listening to Conan and the others' questions, Xiaolan immediately answered: "The man said that they bought the dugong arrow from a man who worked at the shrine the morning before yesterday. They didn't know the man's name. As for that man's The characteristics are that his face is full of stubble, he is very tall, and he smells of alcohol. He is about fifty years old..."

"This person is... Monkyo Benzo?!"

Conan and the others suddenly thought of a person who fit the characteristics, and they all looked surprised: "The dugong celebration was not held the day before yesterday morning. So, the dugong arrow sold by Mr. Men Xie is the Men Xie yarn weaver." That arrow you lost?"

"Also, Hattori-nii, do you still remember?" Conan turned to look at Hattori Heiji with a solemn expression, "Mr. Monkyo seemed to have drawn another dugong arrow during the celebration that day. His luck was too good. Alright?"

"Well, yes!" Hattori Heiji said with a serious smile on his lips, "Speaking of which, after the lottery ended that night, Miss Sumi looked very happy. I thought she also won the lottery, but unexpectedly she found out not long after. Was killed..."

Uncle Maori's expression changed again and again: "Wait a minute! If the person who drew the dugong arrow that night was Miss Shoumei, wouldn't Mr. Men Xie have..."

"Yes! He is very suspicious!" Hattori Heiji stopped squinting and continued, "By the way, when Miss Junhui talked about the roster last night, Mr. Monkyo seemed to be present. He might have heard us. conversation, that’s why... Well, in short, I will go to Ebihara’s house to investigate first to see if there was anything unusual about Mr. Men Xie last night. As for you..."

"...It's best to visit Mr. Menxie's house and see if he is at home! If he is at home..."

Hattori Heiji reached out and pressed his hat: "...Then ask everything clearly!"

…

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in front of Mermaid Falls.

Loli Ai was changing clothes in the nearby woods, while Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi and Kimijima Kana were sitting on the rocks in front of the waterfall, chatting casually.

"Ah? Yunwen-kun, are you saying that Miss Junhui was hiding in the woods near that tomb just now?" Tsukamoto Sumi was a little surprised, "So, that tomb belongs to Miss Junhui's mother?"

"Yes!" Shu Yunwen nodded, "But it seems that there is not only Miss Jun Hui's mother in the tomb, but also his father..."

"Hmm..." Tsukamoto Sumi was slightly silent, "The water stains next to the incense bunch must be Miss Junhui's tears, right? Her mother died but could not be buried properly. There was no name on the tombstone, and she could not even pay tribute. She can only do it secretly, she must be very sad..."

After Tsukamoto finished speaking, Kimijima Kana suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, what day is it today? Why did Miss Kimie go to her mother's grave to offer incense?"

"Who knows?"

The three of them were chatting. In the woods, Loli Ai finally changed into her mermaid clothes and slowly moved out.

Tsukamoto Sumi's eyes lit up when she saw Loli Ai, and she immediately walked up to her. After praising her a few times, she pointed at the big stone in front of the waterfall and said, "Xiao Ai, lie on your side on that stone first. Can we take a photo of you sunbathing?"

"Um, okay."

Resigned to her fate, Loli Ai was forced by the gazes of her sister and Tsukamoto Sumi, and moved step by step to the stone, lying on her side, looking up at the sky helplessly.

Not far in front of the big rock, Tsukamoto Sumi held a camera. After making a few gestures at Loli Ai, he frowned and guided: "Xiao Ai, can you look a little happier? What's your expression now?" With your current appearance, you don’t look like a mermaid at all, but more like... more like..."

Tsukamoto Sumi was thinking, but couldn't think of a suitable description. Next to her, Shu Yunwen looked at Loli's sad look, curled her lips and complained:

"...like a dried salted fish, right?"
