Conan’s Corpse Picker

In Jiangxia's impression, Shimabukuro Kimie was right:

Dugong arrows have no curse power.

There are no mermaids on Mermaid Island.

Even the "life sample" of longevity itself is a complete lie.

——The fate of 130 years old is actually made up by the women of the Shimabukuro family for generations.

Until three years ago, the person who played the role of fate had always been Shimabukuro Kimie's mother, Shimabukuro Naoko.

During the Mermaid Festival three years ago, Kadori Saori and her two friends failed to draw dugong arrows. The three of them were unwilling to give up. After getting drunk, they wanted to get arrows from the warehouse of the shrine, but they happened to see "Mate" walking into the warehouse.

So they took advantage of their drunkenness, locked the warehouse door behind their backs and set a fire, trying to see whether the "destiny" was immortal.

Naoko Shimabukuro, who played the role of "Fate", did not survive. Before she died, she knew she couldn't escape, so she called her daughter Shimabukuro Kimie, hoping that she would continue to act like her fate and the mermaid festival could continue.

After her death, Naoko Shimabukuro's lower body was smashed by a collapsed pillar, and the remaining skeleton looked like a mermaid without legs.

Shimabukuro Kimie didn't understand what happened, but she still followed her mother's words and pretended to be dead with tears in her eyes.

On the second day after the fire, Kadori Saori and her two friends who set the fire saw the "mermaid bones" in the warehouse. They also saw that they were locked and burned in the warehouse yesterday, but they appeared in public unscathed the next day. Despite being frightened by the "fate" in front of him, he became the mermaid's most loyal believer.

…

Therefore, after Kaori Saori lost the dugong arrow a few days ago, she was sure that she would be punished by the mermaid.

In a panic, she went to Shimabukuro for an arrow, relying on the fact that she was a friend of Shimabukuro. She also revealed that she and her friends burned mermaids three years ago.

Shimabukuro Kimie felt as if he had been struck by lightning. She tried to tell herself in her heart that it was "fate" that deceived people first, and both sides were wrong.

But the murderous intention that he had finally suppressed was ignited by Kadori Saori's sexy moves.

Saori Kadori said excitedly: "If you can't get the arrow, then at least tell me where the mermaid's grave is - I remember that Mingzhi buried the charred mermaid bones in the warehouse in the mountain... Please , I also want to be immortal like Mingxian."

Shimabukuro Kimie was stunned.

The legendary way to obtain "immortality" is to eat mermaid meat.

...In other words, it was not enough for this man to burn her mother to death, and now he even wanted to eat the bones of the deceased.

Shimabukuro Kimie was instantly engulfed by murderous intent and decided to kill all three people who set the fire.

…

Today, Shimabukuro Kimie and Kadori Saori went out together, which was also part of her murder plan - she accompanied Kadori Saori to the island to see a dentist, and planned to find an opportunity to deceive Kadori Saori and kill her after she came back.

However, what she didn't expect was that Kadori Saori invited a detective.

And one of them is a famous detective who has appeared on many TV shows...

When Kadori Saori was talking nonsense to Hattori Heiji and others, asking him to help catch the mermaid, Shimabukuro Kimie secretly looked at Eka.

But Jiang Xia happened to be looking at her. The young detective's eyes were obviously calm and his face had no expression, but Shimabukuro Kimie was stared at and froze up.

She suddenly had the illusion that there was a sharp sword about to fall hanging above her head... or a heavy stick about to fall. A trace of fear instinctively arises from the bottom of my heart.

Looking at each other for a moment, when Shimabukuro Kimi was about to lose his expression, Jiang Xia looked away.

Then the famous detective stared at the passing dining car and stopped looking at her.

Shimabukuro Kimie secretly exhaled a breath, her heart pounding.

...Why did Jiang Xia look at her with that look? Did she reveal a flaw somewhere?

But her murder plan has just begun, how could it be seen through directly? ...This, this should be just an illusion caused by a guilty conscience.

…

Everyone in the boat has his or her own thoughts.

Before disembarking, Hattori Heiji returned the commission money to Kadori Saori. He really didn't know what he could do. He couldn't really go to the sea to catch mermaids.

So he completely regarded this trip as a trip.

After disembarking. Kadori Saori left sadly, while Shimabukuro Kimie said goodbye to a few people in a gentle voice and sent Kadori Saori home.

Although in Shimabukuro Kimie's heart, the boat of friendship has long been broken, for now, she must pretend that nothing happened and continue to play the role of a gentle and considerate friend.

Jiangxia originally wanted to get the murderous aura from Shimabukuro Kimie first.

But after the ship approached the island, the ghosts made other discoveries.

——There is the smell of ghosts on the island.

And the sense of presence is particularly strong.

Jiangxia's mood keeps getting better as the gentle sea breeze blows.

Don't call this Mermaid Island, rename it Paradise Island, exclusive to Ou Huang's psychic.

…

The Mermaid Festival is about to be held and it is the afternoon, so the specialty street on Mermaid Island is very lively.

The three girls jumped in happily. Hattori Heiji and Conan followed Toyama Kazuha and Maori Ran, and they were quickly lost in the crowd.

Jiang Xia followed behind, wandering around and then secretly deviating from the direction, heading straight for the ghost's aura.

After passing through the lively specialty street, passing by a quiet grove, and approaching the seaside, Jiang Xia saw a simple shrine.

The aura of the ghost fetus comes from here.

There are usually only two people in the shrine, one is the longevity "Mite", and the other is Shimabukuro Kimie who takes care of Mite. And these two are actually the same person.

Now, Shimabukuro Kimie went home with Kadori Saori, and the shrine suddenly became empty.

Jiang Xia was about to go in and take a look.

However, as soon as he reached the door, he paused and suddenly stepped away.

Almost at the same time, a long and narrow translucent fish tail brushed against his side and slapped hard.

The blow missed, and the tail fell back to its original position. The tail fin tensed and moved slightly, as if it was preparing for the next attack.

Jiang Xia raised her head and was slightly startled after seeing the scene in front of her clearly.

On the low torii gate, I don’t know when there were more...

A mermaid ghost as big as a human.
