……

Taiichi listened to it, and after Hattori Heiji introduced it, he always felt that this matter was a bit unreliable, and it gave people a feeling that the wind and rain were coming.

"Have you contacted the client to confirm this matter?"

"The letter sent to us did leave a mobile phone number on it. As our contact, only but when I contacted the second time, no matter how much I called, there was no way to get through. ”

Hattori Heiji said it again, and after this phone call, his face was also solemn, obviously the occurrence of this kind of thing gave him a bad association.

"I remember the first contact, but immediately after being connected, it was cut off, and the voice on the other end of the phone at that time, I still remember it very clearly."

Looking at the waves of the sea, churning there, Hattori Heiji, I always feel like it's my own mood, and I can't stop.

"Really, in addition to the sound of the waves, it was the moaning of a woman."

"Could it be that person has really become a mermaid?!!! Xiaolan and the others immediately felt very frightened after hearing what Belly Pingji said, if they really became a mermaid, it would be an accident.

"What ?!!"

Taiyi, who had just come here, heard an unexpected news. "You mean that Miss Saori, her whereabouts are unknown."

"Yes~~~," the receptionist on this island said to them. "She didn't seem to have been to work since three days ago."

"Three days from now, it's exactly when the letter arrives at my house."

Hattori Heiji thought about it, and this time is still with someone who can talk to him, so it can also explain that the young lady may really have an accident.

"But those neighbors are wondering if she will take a boat and go to the mainland to play."

"Mr. Kobayashi, it's time for us to go now~~~"

"Okay, I'll do it."

This person on the island, they accidentally bumped into, although they were about to have something to do, and said to them directly, sorry. "I still have to go to the island to prepare for the celebration."

"What kind of celebration?"

When Taiyi heard about this place, there would be a celebration, and I felt that they came, it was really a coincidence, it seemed that when they came here, there was a lively scene to watch.

"You say this, today happens to be our island. It's a day to hold an annual celebration. ”

"Next, if you want to know anything else, you can go to the souvenir shop around the corner and ask the boss."

Hearing this, after this gentleman said this, everyone was embarrassed to trouble him again, and Taiyi and they took the lead in following it, this really found that one, the souvenir shop where the young lady worked.

“…… It seems that in addition to the mermaid's amulet, there is also a mermaid's suspender clip, and this is the first time I've seen this kind of pie with a mermaid. ”

After turning this souvenir shop back and forth directly, Xiaolan felt that she had really come to the right place this time. "Is this island really closely related to mermaids?"

"You say, you still have mermaid arrows here?"

After taking a turn around, Taiyi heard something interesting from the shopkeeper, which looked very interesting.

"That's right, that's the talisman of immortality, and every year at the annual mermaid festival, three mermaid arrows are awarded to the villagers."

After the introduction, the shopkeeper recalled, "I remember, Saori, accidentally lost the arrow she got at last year's festival, so she felt so scared a week ago, for fear that the mermaid would come to her for revenge." ”

"There are so many strange creatures in this world." Taiyi is very clear that this world of Conan, although it doesn't want to be as simple as it seems, is always full of some fantasy colors, but if there is a non-human species, mermaids, it is a joke.

Besides, the matter of immortality, it seems that in this Conan world, as long as you live, you can completely do it, so even in the end, although you don't know how long you live, this time will not lie to you.

"There are indeed mermaids in this world!!"

“……………”

I was thinking about my own affairs, thinking about Taiyi, who was in a good position, when I was interrupted by someone who entered this souvenir shop, and it was a young lady with heavy makeup.

"It's you! Naoko! ”

The shopkeeper obviously knew this young lady, and it seemed that the relationship between them was quite good.

"Because in this world now, there are people who eat mermaid meat, so it has been achieved, and the real case of immortality exists."

When she said a few words, this young lady had a very serious look on her face, and since she was like this, she remembered deeply that she didn't know whether to tell the truth or falsehood.

"I remember that longevity woman, the mermaid arrow made of the hair emitted by telekinesis, in the end, no matter who it falls into, can realize the dream of immortality."

"So I think it's normal for her to be afraid of the mermaid's revenge after losing such an important arrow, and to escape from this island."

"There's something wrong with your brain, right?" Taiyi always felt that something was wrong with the people on this island, after all, as long as you think about it, the legendary arrow that can make people achieve immortality is sent every year!

If there are three people in a year, then in the next so many years, all you can think of is that there are so many people, and the purpose of immortality has been achieved, and the world is not chaotic.

"Naoko and Saori, the two of them are friends who have grown up together since childhood." For this uninvited lady, the shopkeeper introduced it very clearly.

"By the way~~~" After listening to what the young lady said just now, Taiyi was a little puzzled. "Who is that longevity woman you are talking about?"

"That person is the protagonist of today's celebration and the symbol of our island, the old lady of the island."

"So what is that old lady's actual age now?" Hattori Heiji felt very curious, after all, on this island, there are people who claim to be longevity women, and it is conceivable that this age is definitely not young.

"This~~~" When talking about this, the owner of this souvenir shop, acting quite confused, said in a somewhat uncertain tone, "If she is 100 years old and 200 years old, it seems that there are many people!" ”
