Chapter 761: The Female Corpse on a Corner Rock

"Then Ida, see you later!" The fat uncle stayed on the embankment and waved his hand to everyone, watching the cruise ship leave.

"I'll see you later."

The cruise ship gradually moved away from the breakwater.

The setting sun looks like a large disc standing on the surface of the sea, and the brilliance is dazzling but you can also look at it directly, and you can feel it especially when you look at it from a ship.

Heaven and earth are magnificent, but they also have their own insignificance......

A black sharp corner in front of the sunset in the sea attracted everyone's attention, and it seemed that it was not too far from the cruise ship, which made people curious, and Yuan Tai suddenly thought of the existence of monsters and the like.

"It was a horn rock," the fisherman explained, "and there used to be a sea dragon with a long one-horned dragon, and legend has it that the one-horned dragon was so angry that its children were caught by the fishermen that it still showed its horns on the surface ......of the sea to protect its habitat, and it was said that the fishing boats that approached it would sink immediately, and everyone had to worship it from afar."

"Really?" Several children were attracted by the fisherman's words, and then looked at the black sharp horns on the surface of the sea, which were a little different, as if there was really a unicorn dragon in the sea.

"Do you want to go and have a look?" The fisherman laughed, "It's easy for the boat to get close to that rock, and the sunset will be better seen there." ”

"But...... Doesn't it sink? ”

"It's okay, unicorns are very fond of children, and there is a legend that children who get close to there will get the power of the sea, learn to swim, and swim very well......"

"Go, go!" Ayumi was radiant.

"Huh."

Gao Cheng twitched the corners of his mouth and looked at the excited Yumi.

Children really believe everything......

Can you learn to swim, though?

Gao Cheng glanced at the pointed rock.

Someone is stuck on it and learning to swim, right?

The thought of a person trapped in the middle of this kind of high into eyelids jumped.

The corner rock is not small but not large, the part that outcrops the sea is only more than ten meters high, and the bottom radius is also very small, and it can be circled almost in a minute.

"This is the Horn Rock that belongs to the children," the fisherman Ida looked at the Horn Rock with nostalgia, "I only dared to come here with you, and I don't usually come here......

"Hey!" A nearby steamer passed by, and someone in the bow shouted, "What are you doing there?!" It's a corner rock, and if you get closer, you'll be cursed by the dragon and shipwreck!! ”

"Huh?"

Gao Cheng was still looking at Corner Rock, and looked back when he heard the shout, but only shouted and the boat drove away again.

"It's a diver diving nearby," the fisherman who drove the boat looked unhappy, "Recently, some divers have started diving nearby in order to please a certain president's daughter, and it is inconvenient for us to fish, although the sea belongs to everyone, at least we should think about it for us fishermen......"

Gao Cheng didn't care much about the distant steamer, and after everyone got off the boat, he finally led Xiao Ai to step onto a corner rock.

It seems to be an ordinary rock protruding from the sea, and the edge is so eroded by the sea that it is concave and convex, and the legend of the so-called shipwreck is probably that it accidentally hit the rock.

"Let's take a picture before the sun goes down!" Ayumi saw the sunset girl's heart warm, and she couldn't wait to pull Conan to her side.

Okiya Pleiades took pictures of everyone with his mobile phone, squinting and his eyes fell on Xiao Ai, but he was suddenly blocked by Gao Cheng in the middle.

"Huh?"

"Someone seems to have carved out the words here."

Gao Cheng leaned close to the rock wall and looked closely at the nicks on it.

The notch is very new, and it is written in Japanese "mackerel, carp, sea bream, flounder".

"What is this?" Ayumi also looked at the rock wall, "Did someone engrave the name of the fish they caught here as a souvenir?" ”

"It's terrible, it's ...... to do this kind of thing"

"No," Gao Cheng frowned slightly, "The notches are quite neat, not carved by children, but fishermen generally don't come to this kind of place, let alone carve letters, and ......"

Gao Cheng stepped aside and pulled out the flippers of a wetsuit from a crack in the stone, which was still brand new.

"If you were a prank, you wouldn't have deliberately stuffed such new flippers in such a place......"

Conan's expression changed slightly, and before he could speak, he flew forward, and on the other side of the corner rock, there was a young woman in a diving suit leaning against the rock wall, looking as if she was asleep, with an oxygen tank next to it.

Conan looked at the woman with a heavy look on his face, and stopped the children who were running after him.

"Already dead......"

"Huh?!"

Mitsuhiko was shocked: "How come? ”

Gao Cheng also found this side, and followed Conan to inspect the woman's body.

The time of death was probably a few hours ago, and the cause of death was dehydration, trapped alive in such a place......

"It's pitiful," Mitsuhiko said sadly as he looked at the woman's corpse, "I must have been trapped here accidentally, and this is another corner rock where the ship will sink, and no one will come ......"

"It's not an accident, I'm afraid someone deliberately abandoned it here," Gao Cheng interrupted, "Let's call the police first." ”

"Huh?"

"Normally, I don't wear lipstick when diving, otherwise it will stain the mouthpiece, but the mouthpiece of this oxygen tank is very clean and not stained with lipstick...... Someone must have been here after her death and had replaced the oxygen tank for some purpose. ”

Gao Cheng remembered a group of diving enthusiasts he had just seen.

These guys are suspicious......

Really, I thought it was a very peaceful day, but I had to leave and encounter a murder in the sea.

Either way, the chances of murder are quite high, not just the mouthpiece of the oxygen tank, but also the nicks on the other side of the corner rock and the flippers stuffed into the crevices of the rock.

One of the different crevices in the rock should have belonged to this barefoot young woman.

There were still traces of barefoot walking on the soles of the woman's feet, and the reason for these arrangements was to know that the prisoner would come to check on him afterwards, in order to avoid suspicion from the prisoner and at the same time alert other people who found it.

At least if the police come, it is possible to see that it is not an accident......

Sweeping his gaze over the traces of the watch on the woman's left wrist, Gao Cheng searched nearby, and because the location was not large, he soon found a hidden diving watch.

The edges of the diver's watch are so worn, that they are just wide enough to fit the letterings.

The watch also has the initials "HA" on the back and is surrounded by the English "AKAMINE ANGEL ...... The letters behind "CLUB" and "ANGEL" are worn out and can't be seen clearly, but I can barely tell what kind of diving club it is, and it is likely to be the companion of those diving enthusiasts before.

Look at the way those people are coming and going, as if they are looking for something, this woman ......

"She should be the only daughter of the chairman of the financial company in Kanagawa Prefecture and the only daughter of President Akamine's family," Conan said, "I've asked Uncle Ida, she often takes a few young men to dive nearby, and her name is Akamine Mitsuri, abbreviated as HA." ”

Gao Cheng glanced at Conan, who had entered the state and looked confident.

"You didn't know there were corpses here in the first place, did you?"

"How could it be ......"

Conan's face darkened, and he looked at his diver's watch and muttered, "But the problem is that the words engraved on the rocks should be the death message she left behind, but what does it mean?" ”
