Chapter 344 One, two, three steamed eggs? !

Chapter 344 One...two...three steamed eggs? !

"Weird behavior?"

The aunt in the gift shop thought for a moment and then recalled: "Saori has been scared of saying strange things since a week ago."

"Fear?"

Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He thought this matter would be very troublesome, but he didn't expect that after simply asking Obasan in the gift shop, he actually asked for something...

An suppressed the excitement in her heart and asked enthusiastically: "Is someone threatening her?"

"This is it."

The gift shop lady looked at Hattori Heiji.

She didn't quite believe the black man in front of her.

But since the fair-skinned criminal consultant is here, logically speaking, this dark-skinned one shouldn't be a bad guy.

I don’t know what a criminal consultant is, but he must be someone from the police, right?

After a slight hesitation, she explained: "Every year when the Dugong Festival is held on our island, tourists are randomly selected to give away three dugong arrows. Last year, she drew one, but that arrow was lost within a week. She lost it before, because she had been worried about the mermaid’s punishment for this matter..."

"Dugong Arrow?"

Everyone was slightly startled when they heard this.

"It should be a souvenir from this island, right?"

Fujino on the side took over the conversation. Since he had checked the information before, he explained: "It is said that it is an arrow with magic power. Holding that arrow will make you immortal..."

"How do you know so clearly?"

Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at Fujino curiously after hearing this.

"Is this just basic common sense?"

Fujino glanced at Hattori Heiji speechlessly: "Didn't you investigate the information on this island before coming here?"

"Well..."

Hattori Heiji's face darkened.

All his thoughts were on finding the client, which meant booking a hotel, calling Kudo Shinichi, and he was excited all night long.

As for investigating the legends on the island, he really hasn't investigated it carefully.

After all, who would have thought that the client would be kidnapped and involved with a mermaid or something?

"Officer Fujino is right."

The shop owner nodded and agreed: "The 'Dugong Arrow' is a unique amulet on our island. It can protect people from immortality. All the tourists who came here today are here for this amulet..."

Xiaolan and Kazuye on the side were a little surprised and said: "Did Miss Saori lose the mermaid's amulet and be kidnapped by the mermaid?!"

"You two, please stop thinking so wildly. If that arrow was so magical, the other people who got the arrow would have been kidnapped long ago... I think this is just a coincidence."

Although Hattori Heiji was a little confused about the necessary connection between losing the arrow and being kidnapped, he didn't really believe in any weird legends.

Although Kudo Shinichi was quite outrageous when he turned into Conan, he still chose to believe in Ke Xue.

"This is definitely not a coincidence."

At this time, a woman with a black mushroom head and a black sweater came out of the warehouse behind the gift shop. She looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The dugong arrows are tied to those who have eaten mermaid meat and gained immortality." The hair of Mingzhu, and the dugong arrow with the hair of Mingzhu will also give ordinary people the ability to live forever..."

"The power of immortality?!"

Xiaolan and Ye Wenyan were both stunned, with a glint in their eyes.

Immortality and eternal youth are actually quite attractive to girls.

Even if it’s just unrealistic stuff…

But if they could do it for free, the two of them would still be happy to give it a try.

What if it succeeds?

Of course, if they knew that Conan was rejuvenated, they wouldn't know what their expressions would be like.

"But on the contrary, if you lose the dugong arrow, you will be retaliated against... She must have been kidnapped by the mermaid."

After looking at everyone behind her, the mushroom-headed woman said, and left the gift shop without looking back.

"What a strange person..."

Hattori Heiji narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the slightly melancholy woman.

"She is a good friend of Saori's since childhood, and her name is Kuroe Naoko."

The aunt at the gift shop sighed, "She is also an employee of our gift shop, but after Shaori was kidnapped, she became so nagging."

"So that's it..."

Conan thought for a while, and looked at the black general Naoko suspiciously, and then turned his head to Fujino: "The fate she said...Brother Fujino, do you know what it means?"

"Ah, I also investigated it."

Fujino thought for a moment and said, "As for Mingzhu, she should be the goddess on this island. It is said that she gained the power of immortality after eating mermaid meat. I still don't know how old she is..."

"This police officer knows very well what is going on on our island. Yes, that person is the high priest of this festival on our island - the grandmother of the Shimabukuro family. It is said that she is one hundred and eighty years old. Even more than two hundred years old... In fact, the people on our island don't know how old that fateful person is."

The lady in the gift shop behind her glanced at Fujino and said, "If you are interested in things like fate, you can go to the shrine where this festival is held to see Miss Junhui who lives with fate. She is also Saori’s good friend since childhood, so maybe she can also provide some clues.”

"Forehead……"

Hattori Heiji sighed after hearing this, feeling a little troubled.

He originally thought that he would get some results after investigating the case here, but he didn't expect that he would continue to investigate, and now he still has to go to the shrine...

…………

The shrine of Shimabukuro Kime's family is called American Shrine.

To be honest, Fujino seems a little sensitive to the word "American".

The American Shrine is located on a high ground on the island.

Walking up the stone stairs, you can see through the torii gate a spacious courtyard, with a wooden shrine standing in the center of the courtyard.

The style of the shrine makes it difficult to tell which god is being enshrined.

A stone path extends from the torii to the entrance of the shrine.

On both sides of the stone road, there were sporadic passengers who came to visit in advance to prepare for the evening festival.

Standing at the door of the shrine was a woman wearing a red and white miko costume, with long, soft black hair that was tied up in half.

The woman was tapping her shoulders with her flag from time to time, looking bored and wondering what she was thinking about.

"Miss Junhui?"

Fujino walked in front and recognized the other person at a glance, and walked up to say hello.

"Detective Fujino?"

Shimabukuro Kimie turned around, looking a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

"Do you know each other?"

Hattori Heiji looked at Fujino suspiciously.

It was the same thing last time. The very European woman recognized Fujino at first sight.

This time, the lovely miko lady also recognized him at a glance...

Why does he feel that all the beautiful girls he meets know Fujino? ?

"know."

Fujino did not deny it and explained: "She and Monkyo Saori came to Tokyo together to entrust me."

He was actually a little puzzled by Hattori Heiji's suspicious look.

After all, he can't read minds, so how can he know what others are thinking.

But if you think about it, you can actually guess that it's not a good thing.

"that?"

Shimabukuro Kimie suddenly interjected: "Is there any news about Saori? I haven't received any contact from the Metropolitan Police since I came back from Tokyo last time..."

"Not yet. Although I have tried my best to investigate, I still haven't gained much..."

Fujino turned around and looked at Shimabukuro Kimie.

The red lining and long skirt, plus the white outer layer, have a special sense of beauty.

To be honest, the miko uniform is really pretty.

When can I collect one for Xiao Ai to cosplay?

If you put it on Ooka Momiji... Well, the miko uniform actually shows off her bust, and it can already be associated with that kind of unhealthy horror scene.

If it were on Xiaolan's body, it would actually look pretty good.

Fujino shook his head and threw away the strange thoughts.

"how so."

Shimabukuro Kimie was slightly startled when he heard this, and a hint of loneliness appeared on her white face.

Originally, she wanted to kill Menxie Saori with her own hands after seeing the dentist to avenge her mother, but she never thought that before she could take action, Menxie Saori was killed by an inexplicable guy. Kidnapped and gone.

Menxie Saori was kidnapped, and her murder plan could not continue... Her original plan was to kill Saori, then hide her in the warehouse, then pretend to be her to kill, and finally kill her again. He set the warehouse on fire and faked it as if he had killed her mother.

The murder plan was aborted due to an accident, and she did not give up the plan. Of course, the original plan was definitely not feasible. In fact, she had been thinking about a new murder plan these days, but no matter how she thought about it, she never thought that she could be removed. Same plan as before outside...

It would be great if the dark man kidnapped the other two people.

That way she wouldn't have to take revenge herself.

"Um, Miss Shimabukuro."

Hattori Heiji didn't notice Shimabukuro Kimie's look, but asked curiously: "I remember that Ms. Saori Monkyo was kidnapped when she went to Tokyo to entrust Fujino. You should have been present at that time, right?"

"Huh? That's right."

Shimabukuro Junhui calmed down after hearing this, "Excuse me, are you..."

"My name is Hattori Heiji, and I'm a steamed egg!"

"Is that high school student steaming... Detective Hattori Heiji?"

Hattori Heiji introduced himself in a sassy manner, but because of his tone of voice, Shimabukuro Kimie heard him as a steamed egg.

However, at this time, Shimabukuro Kimie did not care about the problem of explanation, but focused on the two detectives in front of him.

Although she heard Menxie Saori said that she commissioned several detectives.

But she didn't expect that this detective would also come to this island.

After all, before Menxie Shaori was kidnapped, she had never heard from the other party...

"Ahem!"

At this time, Mouri Kogoro saw that the other party turned out to be a beautiful young woman, and coughed slightly, attracting Shimabukuro Kime's attention: "Actually, I am also a detective. I'm here, Moori Kogoro, please give me some advice!" "

“Steamed eggs again!”

Shimabukuro Kime was surprised and asked: "That sleeping famous detective?"

"Yes, it's me!"

Seeing that the other party actually knew him, Mouri Kogoro was obviously very enthusiastic: "Is this lady also a fan of my detective?"

Shimabukuro Kimie: "…………"

Completely finished!

One steamed egg, two steamed eggs, three steamed eggs? !

How many steamed eggs did Saori order behind her back?

Shimabukuro Kimie felt a little dizzy, her head was also hot, and her face gradually turned a little red.

All in all, the CPU is about to burn out...

Subconsciously, she panicked.

After all, as a potential murderer, even if he has not killed anyone yet, he will still feel suppressed by blood when facing the detective...

But then I thought about it...yes, she hasn't killed anyone yet, so what's the point of panic?

Even if Saori disappeared, she was not kidnapped.

But you can't say too much. If you say too much, you will easily be suspected.

After thinking about the current situation, Shimabukuro Kime calmed down and forced a faint smile on her white face. She unconsciously raised her hand and lightly tapped her shoulder with a flag: "I didn't expect that I would meet him today. You are so lucky to have three steamed... detectives. I have only seen you in the newspaper before... If there are three of you, then Saori will definitely be able to find you quickly, right?"

"Well..."

Mouri Kogoro was immediately speechless.

"Um, Shimabukuro-nee."

Conan saw that his words were getting more and more sidetracked, so he stepped forward and brought up the topic: "Can you tell me how Sister Men Xie was kidnapped and what happened at that time? Did you see the kidnapper's face clearly? Maybe Uncle Maori and Brother Hattori can find something different."

"Saori was kidnapped four days ago. At that time, I accompanied her to the dentist, and then received a call from Detective Fujino. After that, I took the Shinkansen to Tokyo with her, but we were planning to take the Shinkansen. When she came back from the main line, she was kidnapped...I already told the police these things at the time."

Shimabukuro Kimie shook his head regretfully and looked at Hattori Heiji: "That person suddenly appeared and kidnapped Saori. I didn't see his appearance clearly. He was really too dark. Probably, his skin color was darker than yours." If it’s deeper, you can’t see clearly what it looks like.”

Hattori Heiji:"……"

Although the answer was indeed quite tactful, which made him feel a little better.

But...the skin color is darker than mine.

Damn it, Conan, are you kidding me by asking me this question?

"Okay black chicken!"

Toyama Kazuha on the side couldn't help but smile, teased Hattori Heiji, and then curiously asked Shimabukuro Kimie: "Um, Miss Shimabukuro, may I ask if your grandma is really more than two years old?" Are you a hundred years old?!"

"Two hundred years old?"

Shimabukuro Kime glanced at the curious little girl in front of her.

She could also tell, this girl, and that... girl with the horns on her head?

These two came here with these detectives, but she didn't think they were detectives.

The nervous feeling subsided a little.

In fact, more than one person had asked her this question. Her ears were almost scratched by these words, so she put down the flag in her hand, limped her hand slightly, and explained helplessly: "My great-grandmother has no two." He is a hundred years old, he is just one hundred and thirty years old this year. If you check your household registration, you can easily tell. It is really too much of a fuss."
