Saturday, May 31, night, Shikishima, shipyard.

As soon as the village chief Mikami, the village chief, and Mr. Kinoshita left with the villagers, Mori woke up from anesthesia.

Lan said happily, "That's great, Dad." ”

"I didn't kill it, trust me. Maori said, then asked, "Huh, what about people?"

Lan straightened up his bean eyes, squeezed his little eyes twice, and was stunned.

Conan hurriedly said: "Everyone already knows that you didn't kill it, and now it's time to catch the murderer, it's the captain Uehara." ”

"Looks like I've done another trick. Maori said with some smugness, and then added, "Very well, let's go too." ”

At this time, the sound of propellers came, and Conan saw that Maidiko's plane was heading down the river towards the docks.

Soon after, the crowd met at the docks, and Maida gave Maori, Ran, and Conan a cooked egg.

Walking all the way to the hotel, Lan and Conan told each other about the two events that had happened today.

"Is the troll's work man-made?" said Mei Daizi with some disappointment, "What, really." ”

Lan said: "Why did you come back now? Come back early, so that the murderer will not escape." ”

"It's a garden, you have to use night vision to see the fish. Mei Daiko smiled, "So we drove all the way back." ”

Yuan Zi laughed twice in reply.

At this time, the six of them came to the outside of the village inn and found the village chief standing in front of the hotel gate with a gun, and the village chief Mikami and Mr. Kinoshita were standing behind him, and it seemed that someone had been sent in.

After waiting for a while, and finding that the inn was not moving, Maori asked the village chief, "What is the situation now?" ”

The village chief said with some fear: "Well, I have never caught a murderer, and he can catch Hamada, maybe he still has a gun on him, my marksmanship, I haven't shot for a long time." ”

"......" Maori six people were speechless together.

"You're the only policeman on the island?" asked Sonoko.

"Yes, yes. The village director said a little nervously.

Maori explains: "This kind of island with about 1,000 people is usually a formal police officer. ”

"By the way, the last time we went to Moon Shadow Island, it was like that, there was only one Mr. Policeman. Lan said.

Suzu Mikami said, "Moon Shadow Island, those people are all from the bandits' side. ”

"Robbers?" said Ran, "not like that." ”

Suzu Mikami said: "They robbed our fishing grounds, and they also charged us protection money, and they were still the robbers' men. ”

"Little Suzu. The village chief of Mikami shouted.

"What? Lan was taken aback.

"Didn't you call the police?" asked the garden.

"No, they contracted the fishing grounds that we fancied, and we had to pay them to fish there. Chief Mikami said, then said with a wry smile, "As for the robbers......

"Ahem!" said Mr. Kinoshita, "Village Chief, now is not the time to talk about this. Then he said to the village chief, "I have a lot of dealings with Captain Uehara, so how about leaving me alone to persuade him to come out and surrender? No, there is another way. ”

"Well," said the village chief, after a moment's thought, "all right. ”

"If there's a problem, yell at it. Maori said.

Mr. Kinoshita smiled, "Of course. Then I walked into the village inn.

Five minutes later, a gunshot rang out from inside the village inn, and Mori and Conan rushed in.

Yamazaki stopped Midaiko, "You and Ran and Sonoko are waiting outside." Then he walked in.

"Oh well. Mei Daizi said, and Lan and Yuanzi agreed.

The village chief was stunned for a moment just now, and then gritted his teeth and followed Yamazaki in.

Entering the room, Yamazaki found Mori and Conan looking out of the window, and not far outside was the woods, a pitch-black grove connected to the forest. Mr. Kinoshita, on the other hand, was sitting on the ground with his left arm clutched.

The village chief hurriedly asked, "Kinoshita?"

He fled to the woods. Mr. Kinoshita said, "I was trying to persuade him to turn himself in, and we had a good conversation, but he suddenly shot me with a gun. ”

The village chief asked, "Are you okay then?"

Mr. Kinoshita removed his hand and looked at the wound, "It seems to be fine, just a little scratched skin." ”

The village chief said: "Then you have to go to the clinic quickly to disinfect." ”

Mr. Kinoshita smiled, "I'll go right away." With that, he left.

Conan whispered to Yamazaki, "Hey, that was a burn mark just now, right?"

"It should be. "But it doesn't explain the problem, and it can be a coincidence." ”

Conan asked, "Is it really a coincidence?"

Yamazaki said, "Who knows. ”

The village chief stood by the window and looked at the dark woods outside, sighed and went out, followed by the three Maori.

As soon as the four of them left the village hotel, the village chief of Mikami greeted them and asked, "How is it?"

The village chief sighed and said a little heavily: "I'm sorry, Takeo, I'm going to report this matter to the headquarters." ”

"W-what!" Chief Mikami couldn't hold his feet, "Is this really the only way to go?"

"Hamada was killed by a knife, and I can help you cover it for a few days and delay some time if he dies, but Uehara is now carrying a gun, if he goes berserk," the village chief patted Mikami on the shoulder, and said with some heaviness, "I can't afford this responsibility, and you, too." So, give up. ”

Chief Mikami fell to his knees and smashed his fist on the ground with hatred, "Why...... Why is this happening. ”

"The village chief. Mr. Kinoshita came over and shouted.

"Dad. Suzu Mikami cried, then was hugged by Mr. Kinoshita and handed it to the village chief's helper.

"Alright. The village chief stopped the village chief, looked at the bleeding hands of the village chief, and said heavily, "This may be the real curse of those sailors, damning our ancestors who have hurt them, so that they can only stay on this island for generations to be with their dead souls." ”

After a moment of silence, the village chief Mikami looked up and asked, "Then how long can you delay?"

"You're not dead?" asked the village chief.

"Yes. Chief Mikami stood up from the ground and said firmly, "I must give it a try." ”

"Well," said the village chief, "the communications equipment in the department has accidentally gotten into the water and broken. ”

Chief Mikami asked, "If you say that......?"

The village chief said: "The ferry will come tomorrow at noon, and I will use the ship's radio to contact the headquarters, and if the plane is there, it will arrive at one o'clock in the afternoon." Then he looked at Yamazaki and said, "By the way, there's another plane here, this ......."

"Our plane is out of fuel. Yamazaki laughed, "The batteries of the communication equipment are dead. ”

"Thank you. Chief Mikami said gratefully, then bowed to Maori and said, "Maori detective, I'll leave everything to you." ”

"Me?" said Maori earnestly, "I can only say that I do my best." ”

The village chief took someone to inform everyone to gather together, and beware of Captain Uehara doing something crazy.

Mori and his entourage, along with Mikami Chief, Mr. Kinoshita, and a few fishermen, returned to Mikami's house, and then Mori and the people on the island discussed the search in the living room over the charts. Ran, Conan, Suzu Mikami, Yamazaki, Midako, and Sonoko went back to their rooms to rest, Conan and Yamazaki had one room, and Ran, Mikami Suzu, Midaiko, and Sonoko had four rooms.

Conan and Yamazaki's room.

Seeing that Yamazaki lay down after changing his clothes, Conan asked angrily, "Hey, won't you discuss it with me?"

"I haven't even seen the scene, it's all about your point of view. Yamazaki said, "I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”……

Sunday, June 1st, morning, Mikami Village Chief's house.

Yamazaki, Conan, Ran, and Suzu Mikami are all up, and Sonoko and Midako are still sleeping.

When the four of them were having breakfast, they learned from the maid that Mori and Mikami had gone to sea, and told them to stay at home and not run around. However, there don't seem to be many obedient good boys.

Shipyard.

After breakfast, Conan and Yamazaki came here, and Conan explained his reasoning on the way, and then after Yamazaki saw the scene of Mr. Hamada's murder and the Ryujin, he asked, "How is it?"

"I didn't think there was a problem. Yamazaki said, "But as you thought yesterday, Kinoshita-san can do the same." ”

"But what is the motive?" said Conan, "he has no motive at all." ”

"It's called asking him personally. Yamazaki said.

"Is there any evidence for that?" asked Conan.

Looking at the armor, Yamazaki smiled and asked, "You, do you know how to wear armor?"

"Wearing armor?" Conan thought for a moment and smiled, "I see, there are probably not many young people who can wear armor like the samurai in the past in this era." ”

Yamazaki said, "But there's no guarantee that Captain Uehara won't wear it. ”

"I understand. Conan said.

Lighthouse.

Conan brought Yamazaki here again, let him use the telescope, and asked, "Where the hell are you facing?"

"It's supposed to be the cave of the water army. "There are quite a few villagers over there now, and it seems that they are going to hold a festival in the open space in front of the cave. Then he picked up Conan and let him see for himself.

Conan looked at it and said, "Then let's go over and see what Mr. Hamada is paying attention to." ”

The cave of the water army.

After Yamazaki and Conan came here, they wanted to go in, but because they were outsiders, the villagers didn't let them get close.

At this time, Suzu Mikami appeared, glanced at Yamazaki, and motioned for him to go away.

Yamazaki smiled: "Then I'll go back first." With that, he left.

Suzu Mikami looked around and pulled Conan aside.

Conan asked with some caution, "Y-What do you want to do?"

Suzu Mikami asked with a smile, "Do you want to go to the cave of the water army?"

"Yes, yes. "Conan has a bad premonition.

"I knew there was a shortcut. Suzu Mikami smiled.

"Really?" said Conan hurriedly, "how to go, tell me quickly." ”

Mikami Suzu said angrily: "What, is it an attitude of begging people like this?"

Conan folded his hands and bowed, "Please." ”

"That's it. Suzu Mikami was dissatisfied.

"Or what else do you want me to say?" Conan wondered.

Suzu Mikami closed her eyes, stretched her face over, pursed her lips, and pointed to her mouth, "Wow." ”

"Stupid, stupid, what are you thinking?" Conan took a step back with a red face.

Mikami Suzu opened his eyes and said a little angrily: "If you don't want to, forget it." ”

"Uh......" Conan scratched his feverish cheek.

"That's it, okay, it's okay to kiss here," Suzu Mikami turned her head to the side and pointed to her cheek, "Come on." ”

Conan thought for a moment, looked around, and made sure that Yamazaki was not in the grass nearby, so he blushed, closed his eyes, and leaned in, "Poof." ”

Suzu Mikami smirked, and Conan's triangular eyes were flushed.

On the tree, Yamazaki only felt that his stomach was going to hurt with laughter, and it was really worth it to stay, this video was so interesting.

"Very well, I'll take you there," Suzu Mikami smiled with satisfaction, "Come with me." With that, he ran away.

Conan muttered, "What an annoying guy. So saying, he followed.

Carrying the crowd on his back and following the mountain, Suzu Mikami led Conan to the entrance of a cave with hanging runes, "This is the back door of the Naval Cave." Then he asked, "You're not really going in, are you?"

"I'm just going in. Conan said and walked inside.

"But ......," Suzu Mikami grabbed Conan in fear.

"Don't you don't believe in the superstitions that everyone says?" asked Conan with a smile.

Mikami Suzu said forcefully: "Of course, I am just to warn you as your protector." ”

Conan said, "If you're scared, stay here." With that, he walked in.

Suzu Mikami shouted, "Wait, wait." Then he comforted himself, "All the things that everyone says are superstitions. After saying that, he hurriedly ran to Conan's side and grabbed his arm.

After entering the cave and walking a short distance, he found an altar, and Conan asked, "What is this?"

Suzu Mikami said, "It was here that the killed Uncle Hamada worshiped the water army. ”

At this moment, a gust of wind came, and a strange cry followed.

Suzu Mikami squatted down with her head in fear and shouted, "The soul of the water army is angry. ”

Conan looked around and saw that the sound was from the wind blowing through the hole in the altar, and immediately went to push the altar.

Suzu Mikami shouted, "Conan, wait a minute." ”

Conan didn't listen to her, and pushed the altar with his back to the altar on his feet, only to push the altar open, revealing a hole.

"Another cave!" Suzu Mikami was taken aback and hurriedly ran up and hugged Conan's arm.

Conan said, "The gust of wind just now wasn't the soul of the water army angry at all, it was just that the wind resonated in the cave when it passed through the gap. ”

Suzu Mikami asked, "Shall we go down?"

"Of course," said Conan, "the staircase was not made of natural origin, but was made of neat bricks, and it was evident that someone had built it here on purpose. With that, he walked down, and Mikami Suzu hurriedly followed. ……
