Stay away from Conan

On the next day, according to the agreement, before Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai went out, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, who lived in the opposite room, came forward and knocked on the door of Gao Yuan's room, preparing to tell Gao Yuan to leave. By the way, Discuss where to investigate on the island today.

But in this regard, Takato was not in a hurry to go out to the island to investigate immediately. Instead, he was waiting for Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye who were next door, and planned to go with them to Mr. Obama's not far from the pier. Diving equipment store——

Since Hattori Heiji and the others had to go diving near the underwater ruins today, if they wanted to dive, they still had to go to the diving shop to rent diving equipment.

Due to the discussion last night, Gao Yuan also planned to learn about some things about the underwater ruins from Mr. Obama, who was familiar with the waters around the island. Therefore, Gao Yuan planned to follow Hattori Heiji and the others to go to the diving shop first. Mr. Obama.

Therefore, Koshimizu Nanatsuki also agreed with this point. Anyway, it was something that would be helpful to the investigation of the incident, so it didn't matter if he waited a little longer.

Later, after Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha next door were ready to travel, Gao Yuan, Xiao Ai, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha set out from the hotel together and arrived at the hotel. Dive shop near the island's pier.

But there, everyone saw that Tokijin Junya was already there, and at this time, he had also put on a diving suit——

"Oh? Are you going to dive too?"

In this regard, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but said in surprise when he saw Junya Tokatsu's outfit. He seemed to have never expected that this young high school detective could actually dive.

"Hey, can't you still learn?"

Listening to Hattori Heiji's inquiry, Tokatsu Junya smiled and responded, saying:

"Xiaosheng thinks he has good water skills and can do underwater swimming. If you want to do something like diving, you have professional equipment, an oxygen tank on your back, and a professional to guide you. Just dive in and take a look. It shouldn’t be difficult.”

As he spoke, Tokatsu Junya looked behind him and saw that in this diving shop, in addition to Gao Yuan and others who had just arrived, there was also the store manager Mr. Obama, and three other unknown young men. , and the three young men have also put on diving suits——

"And it just so happens that today there are three diving enthusiasts who are going to visit the underwater ruins. If we follow them, the diving will go more smoothly."

"Huh? There are actually tourists from outside the island..."

In this regard, after listening to Tokatsu Junya's explanation, Hattori Heiji said with some surprise:

"When He Ye and I came here yesterday, it was deserted."

"Scattered, sometimes some tourists come. But, there are still not many people..."

As they were talking, a female voice suddenly came from behind everyone. Everyone looked around and saw a young girl about seventeen or eighteen years old with short black hair, wearing a very ordinary short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts. Carrying an oxygen tank, he walked out of the warehouse of the diving shop and said, seemingly a little disappointed——

"This lady is..."

In this regard, seeing someone he didn't know appear again, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but asked in a low voice——

After all, looking at her carrying the oxygen tank, I probably felt that she might be an employee of the store, but I didn't meet her when I came here with He Ye yesterday.

"This Miss Aragaki is a resident of this island. It is said that she has been working in the diving shop before, but since the number of tourists has decreased, the number of times she has come to work here has become less and less. If not for a few coming today, she would have to prepare She probably won’t be called in to help tourists who go diving.”

Watching Miss Aragaki move the oxygen cylinder out of the store, put the oxygen cylinder on the cart and transport it to a ship docked at the dock, Junya Tokatsu quickly responded:

"It is said that before anyone disappeared, the number of tourists who came to the island was several times more than this! And basically we receive many people every day, so it is quite busy."

"So, after the disappearance, many tourists were afraid to come to the island. This really had a great impact on the island."

Listening to Tokatsu Junya's words, Koshimizu Nanatsuki couldn't help but say.

"Yes. I heard when I came here yesterday that during the time when there were many tourist divers coming to the island, the village chief would arrange boats at the pier every day to pick up the tourists who were going to dive near the underwater ruins. Take them from the pier to the waters near the underwater ruins and let them start diving in the waters close to the ruins.”

In this regard, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but interjected:

"But yesterday, there was no such preparation at all. Kazuye and I still dived directly from the pier. We only looked at it from a distance and never observed it from up close..."

"That's because the village chief heard that you are going to dive near the underwater ruins today, and there are tourists coming here, so the village chief specially prepared a boat this morning to take everyone to the waters near the ruins!"

As if he heard Hattori Heiji's conversation, Mr. Obama on the side couldn't help but explain to Hattori Heiji.

"That's it..."

Listening to Mr. Obama's explanation, Hattori Heiji responded, and then said to Toyama Kazuha next to him:

"Then Heye, let's go change clothes too."

To this, Yuan Shan and Ye nodded in response, and then they went to rent diving equipment and prepare to change clothes——

"What? You two detectives, aren't you going to sneak down and take a look?"

As Hattori Heiji and the others began to prepare for diving, seeing that Takato and Koshimi Nanatsuki were not ready to dive in the end, Mr. Obama couldn't help but asked curiously.

"No, leave it to them to dive to see the underwater ruins. We are going to investigate on the island."

Facing Mr. Obama's inquiry, Gao Yuan waved his hand and refused.

So, Mr. Obama nodded slightly and said nothing more. After Hattori Heiji and the others changed into their diving suits, they took everyone who was about to dive to the side of the boat in front of the dock and began to explain:

"Next, before setting off, I would like to emphasize the precautions for diving..."

It should be a routine explanation of diving safety matters. Listening to Mr. Obama's explanation bit by bit, Gao Yuan, who had not planned to dive in the first place, suddenly noticed that on the boat that was preparing to send everyone away——

"Although there are no tourists, there are quite a lot of oxygen tanks prepared..."

Somewhat unexpectedly, Gao Yuan couldn't help but murmured as he looked at the pile of oxygen tanks piled on the deck of the ship.

"Because when diving, the most important thing is to confirm the remaining amount of oxygen... Of course, there is no oxygen in the sea."

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but Mr. Obama’s explanation began to explain in detail matters related to oxygen during diving...
