【Chapter 55】The Coffin of the Blue Moon
In the scorching summer, people like to go to the beach to escape the heat. Especially for families, it is best to go to the beach with the whole family during this period to relax and strengthen the relationship. Many school students also spontaneously organized summer teams to come to the beach to escape the heat, even the more conservative bulletproof elderly were driven to the beach to cool down by this hot weather.
Japan is a country surrounded by the sea, with many small islands scattered around. Most of these islands have holiday companies and holiday inns, but one of them has become more attractive to tourists and "gold diggers" because of certain legends.
That's Kamikojima.
Kamikojima Island is a small island floating in the Pacific Ocean, and its subtropical nature is unique due to the vast coral reefs that are hidden in the blue sea. The existence of the ancient ruins of the "underwater palace" has attracted many curious seekers, and the legend of the treasure passed down from ancient times has made it a natural tourist destination.
Legend has it that there was an ancient ruin called the "Underwater Palace" at the bottom of the sea there a long time ago, and that two female pirates, Ann Bonnie and Marie Reed, who actually existed 300 years ago, left a lot of treasure there. (The above is from the encyclopedia)
In the Maori detective agency, the son-in-law and father-in-law are working together for a second ......
"Finally......" Conan muttered, his brain hurting a little, all from Maori Kogoro. Unraveled! Maori Kogoro's neckline was open, and he cheered without any image, now the 300,000 prize is his own, and he can take a leisurely vacation in Paris!
Xiaolan had long heard Maori thinking about going on vacation to Paris after solving the puzzle. She didn't expect to be able to solve it either, and many of the questions were solved by Conan. Xiaolan reminded her father: "Odosan, don't forget that most of the questions were solved by Conan. Maori Kogoro pretended to be confused: "That's it, this kid thinks so slowly, I have to go through the trouble to knock him on the head......"
Xiaolan still doesn't know her father? This is obviously pretending to be confused! She was dissatisfied, and her eyebrows revealed the aura inherited by Queen Yingli: "Odosan......" Maori Kogoro is most afraid of Xiaolan: "Okay, okay, okay, I know, I'll take you on vacation." As he spoke, he waved his hand as if he was cute. Xiaobai's swing is more standard than him!
Xiaolan nodded and took out her mobile phone to make a call.
Maori Kogoro felt a little uncomfortable: "What are you doing?" Xiaolan said as a matter of course: "Of course, I called everyone together." Mori Kogoro was terrified, and he immediately estimated in his heart how much pocket money he had left, but in the end he was a little tragic......
300,000 yen converted into RMB is more than 18,000, and the price of goods in Japan is not cheap, let alone traveling? He silently accepted the reality and silently looked for a vacation location......
Conan Half-Moon Eyes: It seems that my uncle is really going to bleed heavily this time.
Xiaolan called Doctor, Sonoko, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Yuanta, and Ji Haihong in turn. When Mori Kogoro heard that the garden was coming, he was a little unhappy. It's not that he hates the garden, but the garden's family is so wealthy, and he can go to a villa in Hawaii for a vacation in minutes, what else is there to do? How much pocket money can I save this time? Alas...... It seems that you can't bet on horses again in the recent days......
"Huh? Ji Haihong's phone can't get through. Xiaolan called Ji Haihong's mobile phone, but it still didn't work. Conan felt that he was fine, so he proposed to find Ji Haihong.
Of course, Ji Haihong couldn't answer the phone, he was now soaking in the pool with Xiaobai. Because the pool is open-air and not big enough, it doesn't work very well. In order to escape the heat, Ji Haihong froze three buckets of Xiaoice and sprinkled them in the swimming pool. Now the temperature of the swimming pool makes Ji Haihong very refreshing, and it also makes Xiaobai very refreshing. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Haihong brought warm water to bathe Xiaobai again, and the shower gel was put on. Xiaobai will enjoy it, and he will enjoy it with peace of mind.
At this time, Ji Haihong faintly heard the phone ringing in the house.
Conan was standing in front of the villa gate, holding his mobile phone and making a call. "Really, what's running around when you're not at home on a hot day? Why is no one at home...... Yes! I'm not at home on a hot day, running around! I knew that the weather was so hot and I wouldn't come, what kind of wind did I smoke......"
Ji Haihong appeared in front of Conan wearing a white vest and shorts, and he opened the door: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was swimming in the back with Xiaobai just now, I didn't hear the phone ringing, and I didn't bring my mobile phone with me, is there anything wrong?" Conan said, "My uncle and I solved the jigsaw puzzle of the "Daily Newspaper" and won 300,000 yen, and we would like to invite you to go on vacation with the seaside." ”
"Okay!" Ji Haihong was full of joy, but suddenly changed his words, "Forget it, this kind of boring activity, you better go......"
As a detective, Conan is more observant at all times. He could see that Ji Haihong's happy and joyful expression when he heard the news was not pretended. Conan also understood why Ji Haihong refused this invitation: "Don't you want to ......"
"Conan," Ji Haihong was a little disappointed, "You know, I can only be in my own swimming pool, although my gunshot wound has undergone surgery and the wound has been deformed, but if you look closely, you can see that I have a penetrating wound...... If something happens to you, it's more troublesome, so forget it. ”
Conan suddenly found that he seemed to trust Ji Haihong too much. Ji Haihong used to show only strength and courage in front of others, and everyone thought that Ji Haihong didn't care about anything, and no difficulties could overwhelm him. Ji Haihong often comforts and encourages those friends who are in difficulty, and even Gray Yuan has been able to face the black-clothed organization with Ji Haihong's encouragement. But...... He seems to have been ignored. Conan is also synonymous with strength and courage in the eyes of many people, but even Conan has failed and been discouraged, is Ji Haihong stronger than Conan in some aspects?
Conan finally understood why Ji Haihong liked to read the works of those ancient sages. Improving one's own quality and learning from the experience of one's predecessors is to better understand one's own heart, so that oneself is not discouraged, not proud, not angry, and not frivolous.
There is no time when people are not helpless, there is no time when they are not sad. Some people are able to comfort themselves and reflect on themselves. But how long can self-reflection and comfort help?
Conan is determined to convince Ji Haihong that he is no longer a mercenary, and he has to face something.
"Ji Haihong, in fact, sometimes, I think you are not as good as Gray Plains." Conan decided to agitate.
Ji Haihong blinked, but didn't react.
"Gray Plains, she's scared of the Black-Cloaked Order, but she can still face Belmode, and you, can't even overcome this little scar? What are you running away from? Penetrating wounds are not caused only by bullets, so what are you afraid of? When have you ever been afraid of trouble? This is not the Ji Haihong I know, but it seems to be a copy of the gray plain. ”
Conan's words poked into Ji Haihong's heart, yes, what was he afraid of? The soldiers are coming, even if there is trouble? It seems that he was really frightened by the mysterious black-clad organization. This variable is entangled in Ji Haihong's heart all the time and has become a lingering shadow for him.
"Go, go! We're afraid of who! ”
A few days later, Mori Kogoro quickly contacted the hotel, and the prize money was already in hand. The group took a boat to the famous island of God. At the pier, Ji Haihong stumbled upon a small yacht with a familiar sign on it.
The group came to the hotel, and Mori Kogoro went to check in. By the way, I carried forward the fine tradition of being faceless and skinless, and boasted of my character to the sky......
All the clothes in Ji Haihong's house are nothing more than black, gray, and white. Of course, there are also some three-color matching clothes. All in all, what these colors have in common is that they are unobtrusive. Conan had long noticed that the color of Ji Haihong's clothes was more repetitive and monotonous, but he didn't expect it to be ...... today
Today, Ji Haihong's clothes are still these three colors, except that a white dragon is embroidered on the back of the black shirt, and the front is a gray geometric pattern. With Ji Haihong's temperament, it looks very good at first glance.
That's right, for the sake of "at first glance".
When I heard the bar staff say that they didn't receive an appointment, everyone except Ji Haihong was stunned: "Is there a mistake?" ”
The imaginative children immediately began to make up for it, and with the gray plain "fanning the flames" on the side, the children seemed to be really sleeping on the streets.
At this time, a middle-aged man with glasses ran in from outside the door: "Hello everyone, I've kept you waiting, you are Mr. Kogoro Maori, right?" The detective...... Ah! As soon as Ji Haihong wanted to say something to remind, the man lay on the ground.
Finally, after some explanation, this man named Iwanaga took everyone to the car. When he got in the car, Ji Haihong remembered that it should be the opening part of the animation at this time, so he spoofed how Conan introduced himself? Yushu is handsome, chic, and personable or something?
In the car, Conan explained the structure of the methane hydrate layer to the children, and was finally secretly reminded by Gray Plains, embarrassingly saying the famous phrase "This is what I saw on TV". Ji Haihong feels that Conan is sometimes quite pitiful, as a child, he can only sell cuteness, and he can't know too much.
Iwanaga asked, "Who are you going to participate in the treasure hunt?" The children raised their hands excitedly, and when they saw that Conan and Gray Plains did not raise their hands, they raised their hands again. Unexpectedly, Ji Haihong raised his hand to answer the question: "That, I have an old friend on this island who needs to visit, so I won't go." The children were a little disappointed: "Huh? If Ji Haihong doesn't go...... It doesn't matter, Conan is enough! ”
That's too much of a contrast! Ji Haihong was speechless, at first he was quite happy when he heard the children say the first half of the sentence, who knew that he was just a trick with a bento......
Maori Kogoro muttered, "What old friends does a little ghost have?" ”
Ji Haihong asked Iwanaga for a tourist map and said goodbye to everyone. Gray Yuan said: "Where did he come from some old friend? Don't...... Ran into a former enemy again? Conan was a little worried: "Yes, but looking at his expression, he is not very nervous, maybe it is really an old friend?" ”
