Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"Also, if you want to be king, that's not acceptable," Feichi and Feili chatted together, "You have to learn to rule..."

"Government?" Feili asked doubtfully.

"It's just that you have a large group of followers and let them do things for you. This is the king," Fei Equator said. Not as big as a seagull."

Feili: "Then it's so small."

Feichi: "But it is still very powerful. Many birds listen to it. It's a pity that it went to the United States, otherwise it can teach you how to rule..."

Feili: "America?"

Feichi: "Feimo said that it is on the land on the other side of the sea, far, far away. The owner found a plane to send him and his men there."

Feili: "Why does it go to such a far place?"

Feichi: "Because..."

...

While waiting for Chi Feichi to eat, Feichi told Feili that Tuanzi was about Feimo, after Feimo was about Shibingwei, and even the white snake Dabai's family and the cats who ran with Chi Feichi at night.

Feili told Feichi about the situation in the sea, all kinds of creatures, and all kinds of interesting stories.

Chi Fei was belatedly interested. Listening to Feili's description, he kept reporting what humans call that animal.

He didn't know much about the affairs in the sea, so it was quite interesting to hear what Feili had to say.

For a meal, Chi Feichi ate for almost an hour.

Feili waited for Chi Feichi to clear the table before looking up at the sky, "Master, that person died eight years ago today, let's hurry up and give the things to that child, he should be happier when he sees it. "

Eight years today? Go to sea and die at sea?

Chi Feichi recalled the case Conan encountered this time. The fathers of the three suspects all died today.

Was he involved in the case again?

"Feili, did the boat that that person was on get hit by someone?"

"Huh?" Feili was taken aback, thinking back, "Really? When I went there, he was already in the sea, so I don't know..."

"Yes Yes!"

Three seagulls sang and fell from the sky, chirping.

"Another ship sank their ship, on purpose! On purpose!"

"The man who rammed his boat into someone else's boat is definitely dead by now."

"When it was just dark tonight, he was drunk, entangled in a fishing net, put him in a sandpit, and pressed him with a boat. The sea water was already high tide, and he would definitely be drowned."

"It was made by the child of one of the three people back then..."

Seems like all seagulls love to spoil a case.

This time it was all right, Chi Feichi remembered the whole plot again.

Feili raised his head and asked, "Is that the child I mentioned?"

"It seems not and it seems to be..."

"It was too dark, I couldn't see clearly..."

"I didn't see clearly either..."

The three seagulls are a little unclear.

"no."

Chi Feichi gave Feili an affirmative answer.

He couldn't remember the names of the three suspects in this case, but the murderer would go to the restaurant to make an alibi very early, and he didn't pay homage to his father who died at sea eight years ago.

The 'child' that Feili mentioned would go to worship every year, so it is not the murderer.

The problem to consider now is that now that the person is dead, if he runs over and leaves traces on the beach, he might be regarded as a suspect.

And his appearance might make that 'child' a suspect due to time or other reasons.

but……

With Conan around, the truth will come to light sooner or later, and being suspicious doesn't seem to have any effect.

...

The cemetery behind the temple is close to the cliff, and a solitary lamp hangs under the eaves, shining a dim yellow light and swaying under the sea breeze.

A tall, dark-skinned man sat in front of a tomb, listening to the crash of the waves on the foot of the cliff, and whispered to the tombstone.

"I'm the only one here tonight..."

"This year is not bad, it's still the same..."

"Aramaki used boats to pull nets and catch all the fish near the coast. We worked as coast guards on the beach to prevent people from drowning. By the way, we cleaned up the garbage left by tourists..."

"We decided to talk to that guy Arakawa. The two of them have passed by first. I'll talk to you. I'll go find them later..."

A seagull flew over the sky and gave a low cry.

In front of the tomb, more than half of the circle of incense was burned, and wisps of white smoke rose up and were blown away by the wind.

The man smiled and looked up at the dark night sky, "You used to talk to me all the time, you have to abide by the rules of nature, and you can't be greedy, but the guy who is greedy is still alive and well, but you are gone , you were the most powerful fisherman back then..."

He suddenly remembered that half a year before his father had the accident, he was talking to him about the so-called rules again.

'Old man...you catch the most fish every time, if people know that you have been nagging and don't be greedy, they will be regarded as hypocrisy! '

'Fool! What does this have to do with how much you get? What I'm saying is, if you catch a small fish, remember to put it back into the sea, this is the rule! Spiritual animals cannot be harmed, so don't hunt whales in the future, this is my rule! '

At that time, his father laughed and patted him on the back. He slapped his back until it hurt, and said triumphantly, 'Xinji, your father, I am so good because I am a gift from nature! '

"Narcissistic old man, if you were really gifted by nature, how could you be buried in the sea..." Nezu Shinji sighed as he lit the burning incense ring, got up and patted his clothes, and when he was about to leave, the rest of his eyes Jiao suddenly caught a glimpse of a black figure behind him, was startled, and quickly turned around to look.

At some point behind him stood a strange man.

The strange man was tall and tall, wearing a large cloak with a black back and a white front, and a hood. The mask under the hood was also black, and there were two white spots on his cheeks.

Nezu Shinji let out a low growl in fright, closed his eyes, and punched him with an old punch.

"Snapped!"

The fist was easily grasped.

"I'll bring back your father's bones." Chi Feichi changed into a gentle male voice, expressing his intentions.

Pretending to be a ghost is risky.

When encountering this kind of person who is frightened, he will do it directly. If he is not good at it, he really can't handle it.

Nezu Shinji was taken aback, opened his eyes and looked at the strange man in front of him, "I... my father?"

"Come with me." Chi Feichi let go of Nezu Shinji's fist and turned to go to the edge of the cliff.

Nezu Shinji was taken aback for a moment, and followed without much reason.

The strange man's voice was very gentle, making people feel full of kindness, so he decided to take a look.

Although his father was buried in the sea, he didn't think he could get his bones back. Most of the burials in this cemetery were fishermen from this area, and many of them were clothes tombs, but...

He still couldn't help but report a glimmer of hope, this strange person quietly appeared behind him, like a ghost, what if it was real?

He has confidence in himself, running should be no problem, and this is the place where he grew up, and everyone in the village knows him, so he is afraid of a strange person?

Chi Feichi walked to the edge of the cliff, turned his head to look at the two bags next to him, and said in a gentle voice, "The bag on the left contains your father's bones and some of his two companions. They were not found. Quan, the bag at the back...is given to you by my Xiaoli."

"Xiao, Xiaoli?" Nezu Shinji was a little confused.

"Ten years ago today, Xiao Li wanted to get close to the coast to see human beings, and happened to meet your father who came back from fishing." Chi Feichi turned to look at the sea, "It was your father who reminded Xiao Li that the tide was rising and drove Xiao Li away. Leaving the coast, let Xiao Li avoid the fate of being stranded on the beach, and for the next two years, when your father went to sea, Xiao Li has been watching..."

Nezu Shinji froze in place.

ten years ago?

He remembered that it was probably from that time that his father could catch a lot of fish every time he went out to sea, and he was known as the most powerful fisherman at about that time.

At that time, he would go fishing with his father, but he had never seen Xiaoli...

No, wait, he remembered a few times, his father would whisper to the shimmering sea.

'You are here again...'

'Why don't you leave here and go somewhere else to play...'

‘Didn’t you see me? Are you afraid of me? I didn't mean to hurt you that night...but forget it, you can hide, so just hide obediently...'

'The tide will be high tonight, don't go near the coast...'

At that time, he thought it was a bad habit brought up by his father's boredom.

Think carefully!

So what exactly is that 'Xiaoli'?

Chi Feichi continued to speak in a gentle tone, "On that stormy night eight years ago, your father and his companions went out to sea by boat..."

Nezu Shinji came back to his senses and raised his eyes to stare at the strange man standing on the edge of the cliff.

"Xiao Li encountered an undercurrent in the sea and couldn't make it in time. When she arrived, your father was already dead..." Chi Feichi paused, "She was very sad, and she always wanted to send your father's bones back. I also want to give you some things she found at the bottom of the sea, and I hope you can live a good life, but she can't get close to the coast, and you haven't gone out to sea again, so you didn't ask me to help deliver them until today."

After all, this is his father's business. He feels that it is necessary for Nezu Shinji to understand the cause and effect. At the same time, he also hopes that Nezu Shinji will cherish this gift.

When killer whales seldom attack people, he also hopes that there will be a legend of killer whales repaying their favor. Even if there is only one fisherman who insists on not killing killer whales, it can be regarded as the continuation of this kindness. .

"Then Xiaoli is..." Nezu Shinji already had a vague guess in his heart.

The high tide will run aground near the shore, help his father fish, the black and white cloak and mask of the weirdo...

Killer whales in the sea!

Could it be that this strange man... a killer whale has become a spirit?

"I don't want her to go near the coast again." Chi Feichi ignored Nezu Shinji's temptation and walked forward.

"etc……"

Nezu Shinji saw the opponent stepping directly off the edge of the cliff, and subconsciously stepped forward, but his outstretched hand was quickly suspended in the air.

The opponent did not fall straight down, but flew out obliquely.

In the dark night, the cloak was blown by the wind, and the black face was hidden in the night, only a swaying white streak could be seen, heading towards the distant sea.

Nezu Shinji was taken aback for a moment, and after regaining his senses, he quickly asked, "Did my father really encounter an accident when he went to sea?"

"no."

The gentle male voice responded faintly in the dark night, and soon dissipated in the night wind.

Nezu Shinji stood on the edge of the cliff.

He was not surprised by this answer.

Eight years ago, when a storm came suddenly, his father heard that Aramaki had not returned after going out to sea, so he went out on a fishing boat with his companions to look for it.

Afterwards, Huang Juan came back, the fishing boat his father was riding on was hit by the waves and the hull was damaged, but there was no one on the sinking boat...

It was the guy Aramaki who deliberately drove the boat and rammed his father's boat and knocked him into the sea!
