Stay away from Conan

Chapter 98 Speculation

Looking at his half-written name, Gao Yuan was unable to write the last two words. He looked at the miko lady in front of him, Shimabukuro Kimie, with some surprise.

At this time, Gao Yuan remembered some details about the Mermaid Island case in the original work, such as the legendary longevity woman on the island, who was actually dressed up by Miss Shimabukuro Kimie in front of him. And a year later, the case that will happen at the festival was committed by Miss Shimabukuro Kimie.

Because Shimabukuro Kimie's friend, in order to verify whether the longevity woman was really immortal, set fire to the longevity woman dressed as Shimabukuro Kimie's mother in the warehouse. After knowing all this, Shimabukuro Kimie chose revenge.

And now, I have actually arrived here a year early, so what should I do to save the tragedy that is about to happen?

But if he remembers it correctly, the death of Shimabukuro Kimie's mother should have happened long ago, so what should he do?

No, that’s not right, that’s not what you should be thinking about now!

Gao Yuan quickly put his thoughts back and remembered that the reason why he had not put down his name was because in the original work, Conan would check the rosters of previous years when he goes to the island next year, and among them, there appeared The names of several organization members including Miyano Shiho are written on it!

If I remember correctly, the list with Miyano Shiho's name on it happens to be this year's book!

In other words, Miyano Shiho will appear on this island!

It also means that gin and vodka will also appear on this island!

Although Miyano Shiho may know the original person, it should be impossible for her to know the name she is using at this time. But because of the promotion challenge mission, Gin and Vodka most likely knew about themselves - Akechi Takato, the detective who proved for them that Hanada Emi was Mr. Nishikawa's illegitimate daughter!

What should I do? Should I write my name in full? However, at this point, Kadowaki Saori already knows the name she is using now. It would be too deliberate to write it as a pseudonym at this time.

No, calm down.

Considering how famous Mermaid Island is and the fact that it happens to be the time of the celebration, it is not incomprehensible that Akechi Gaoyuan would appear on this island. Besides, Gin and Vodka might not notice this, and even if they did, it wouldn't mean anything. All he had to do was avoid them.

And Miyano Shiho is even less likely to recognize himself. He is just scaring himself now.

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, came to his senses, and continued to write the word "Gao Yuan".

Now, it’s better to mind your own business—since it’s difficult to find Nakagawa Osang, can we start with the “Red-faced Mermaid”?

Putting the number plate in his pocket, Gao Yuan asked: "By the way, I have something to ask. Do you know about the incident of the cruise ship that sank near Wakasa Bay not long ago?"

"Ah, of course we know this."

Hearing this, Shimabukuro June replied, "I remember that the storm on the sea was so strong that day that even the residents of our island could only stay in the house and couldn't get out. Right, Saori."

"yes."

Kadowaki Saori also nodded, "Because the wind and waves on the sea were too strong that day, although the island received a distress signal from the cruise ship, it was really impossible to go out to sea for rescue. By the time the wind and waves passed, the cruise ship would have sunk long ago."

Kadowaki Saori said with a slight regret.

"But why are you asking this? Aren't you here to find someone on the island?"

"This is just out of curiosity."

Gao Yuan explained, "Because my idol, the famous Italian actress, died on that cruise ship, so I asked about it."

"So that's it."

Shimabukuro Kimie said, "That's really a pity."

"Then, after the cruise ship sank, did anyone on the island go to sea to check it out?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"Of course, after all, the distress signal has been received on the island. After the sea calmed down a little, the fishermen on the island organized to go to the place where the accident happened to check. Unfortunately, it was already too late by the time they arrived."

Kadowaki Saori said, "For this reason, my drunk dad was still complaining about being dragged out to sea that day, saying it was a waste of time."

"Yeah, it's a bit unexpected that he would go with me in the end."

Shimabukuro Kimie said, "But speaking of which, your father was a little weird when he came back that day? He never left the island, but after he came back that time, he actually took a boat to the mainland."

"Yeah, he doesn't do anything serious except drinking all day long."

Kadowaki Saori said helplessly, "After he came back from the mainland, he was still talking drunkenly all day long, talking about how he was going to get rich, etc. I really don't know what he was thinking."

Shimabukuro Kimie and Kadowaki Saori started chatting because of the topic Takato brought up, and it was obvious that the two should be very good friends.

But Gao Yuan, who was watching from the side, felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

If I remember correctly, the people who killed Shimabukuro Kime's mother were some of Shimabukuro Kime's best friends. If there were no guesses, the Kadowaki Saori in front of him should be one of them. In other words, two people who are so good now actually have conflicts that cannot be eased.

The two of them were chatting, and suddenly they remembered Gao Yuan who was still standing here. Seeing Gao Yuan's somewhat disappointed expression now, Shimabukuro Kimie couldn't help but said: "Sorry, we were so engrossed in chatting that we forgot that our guests are still here. "

With that said, he picked up the roster and looked at the names written by Gao Yuan, and then flipped through the names on the roster.

"Mr. Akechi Takato, right? I'm sorry, but I really don't have the name of Nakagawa Daizo recorded here."

Shimabukuro Kime said slightly apologetically.

"No, it's nothing. I'm really disturbing you."

Gao Yuan said, "I'll take my leave first."

After saying goodbye to Shimabukuro Kimie and Kadowaki Saori, Takato left the shrine. In the conversation between the two just now, they mentioned a very interesting thing. Kadowaki Saori's father went to sea after the cruise ship sank, and then After coming back, I went to the mainland again!

Regarding the news about the "Red-faced Mermaid", there is actually an unresolved question, which is who first released the news.

There was no formal news report on this matter, and Kuroba Kaito did confirm the existence of this matter in the email from the gem mortgage company.

But when he mentioned the sunken ship to Shimabukuro Kimie and Kadowaki Saori, they obviously didn't know that someone had found the turtle carrying the gem on the sea.

If a fisherman really discovered an aquarium containing a turtle floating on the sea, based on the existing information, there is only one conclusion that can be drawn:

The fisherman who found the aquarium did not tell the people on the island about it. Instead, he chose to leave the island directly and informed the company that could accept the gems as collateral - he needed someone to take it from him. Buy gems and buy them!

As for the father mentioned by Kadowaki Saori, his behavior perfectly fits this speculation!
