Shiho Miyano soon came to the mermaid waterfall, found the shrine maiden Shimabukuro Kimi, handed the wooden sign with the number "forty-four" written on it to Shimabukuro Kimi, and after changing it to the dugong arrow, he was ready to go back to the hotel where he was staying temporarily.

Because after listening to Takato's reasoning about the rumors on the island just now, Miyano Shiho is now no longer interested in investigating the mermaid bones and the longevity woman.

It's just that just after walking a short distance, a cold voice stopped her.

"Shirley, where are you going?"

In the shadow of the crowd, two men dressed in black and wearing black hats walked out and came to Shiho Miyano's side—it was Gin and vodka.

"Nothing."

Coldly, Shiho Miyano glanced at the two of them and said, "Just go around." ”

"What? Don't go to investigate the longevity woman? Or have you already investigated something? ”

Walking to Miyano Shiho's side, Gin said coldly, and then he saw the dugong arrow in Miyano Shiho's hand, so he showed a sneer.

"I see. You've got the Dugong Arrow. ”

Gin seemed a little surprised, but his tone was still cold, "I hope that if you don't get it, I'll help you get one." It seems that it is not needed. ”

"If nothing else, I'll go back first."

I didn't want to say anything more to Gin, so Shiho Miyano said this and prepared to walk in the direction of the hotel.

"Big brother, this woman really doesn't know how to lift!"

Listening to Miyano Shiho's speaking attitude, Vodka looked at the back of Miyano Shiho leaving, and said with some displeasure.

"Forget it, let her go."

With a slightly indifferent tone, Gin said, "Anyway, her comfortable days are numbered. ”

"But, big brother, don't you really need to tell that woman what we found about the longevity woman that might be fake?"

Vodka said.

"No, you don't."

Gin said coldly, "Looking at her expression, I should have noticed it." ”

Saying that, Gin also walked in the direction of the hotel, "Let's go, go back and rest for the night, and send the list back tomorrow morning, our mission must not be missed." ”

At this time, Gao Yuan went to a small clinic on the island, and after doing some simple cleaning and bandaging of the wound, he limped and slowly walked to the small hotel where he was temporarily staying.

However, just after turning the corner of a street, a dagger suddenly hit Gao Yuan's neck!

"Don't move!"

Gao Yuan heard it, it was Nakagawa Dazang's voice.

At this time, there was no one on the street, and there were no lights on the road, so in this way, Gao Yuan was held hostage by Nakagawa Dazang.

Gao Yuan was a little surprised by such a situation, but he was not surprised - he took the real "red-faced mermaid" and disrupted the plans of this international criminal group, even if he escaped for the time being just now, he would definitely be retaliated by them in the future.

It's just that Gao Yuan didn't expect that it was their minds who were the first to hold him hostage, Nakagawa Dazang, and the other three people were nowhere to be seen at this time, I don't know if they were also ambushed nearby.

Nakagawa Dazang held a knife on Takato's neck with one hand, and began to fumble for Takato's pocket with the other.

But rummaging through Takato's pockets, Nakagawa Dazang only found two things—cash, and a pair of monocles. And he wanted to find the "Red-faced Mermaid" gem, but it was not on Gao Yuan.

"Mr. Detective, you've surprised me."

Nakagawa Dazang found out that this was the case, and couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart.

"Thanks for the compliment."

Gao Yuan replied lightly.

Although he was held hostage, Gao Yuan knew that his life would not be in danger for the time being - this was a matter of course, the purpose of these people was to recover the "red-faced mermaid", once they caught themselves, as long as they could not find the "red-faced mermaid", their lives would be safe - this was also what Gao Yuan had prepared for a long time, the worst plan.

"Well, I'm not going to talk nonsense."

Nakagawa Dazang said.

"Mr. Detective, tell me, where is Furukawa Yuki!"

As he spoke, Nakagawa Dazang pushed Takato to the wall, but the dagger was always against Takato's throat and asked in a vicious tone.

Faced with such a situation, Gao Yuan was a little surprised, originally thought that Nakagawa Dazang would first ask him about the whereabouts of the "red-faced mermaid", but he didn't expect that the other party would ask Furukawa Yuki first.

However, looking at the other party's somewhat impatient appearance, Gao Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Seeing this, Nakagawa Dazang was a little confused, but soon, he knew what was going on - Nakagawa Dazang only felt that he was suddenly lifted by a force, and then his head was down, and he was thrown to the ground!

Special self-defense technique - "Hanging Man Upside Down"!

This special effect, which has to be used once and has an interval of 24 hours, has a very big advantage - as long as it meets the conditions, it can drop anything.

Just now, when Nakagawa Dazang pushed Gao Yuan down the wall, his hand was pressed on Gao Yuan's windbreaker, and obviously, Nakagawa Dazang could not weigh more than 200 kilograms.

Previously, when Gao Yuan was held hostage, he never chose to use this effect, because he was worried that if the other three people were also ambushed nearby, this ability that could only be used once in 24 hours naturally could not be used casually.

However, Nakagawa Da Zang was anxious, and his question was exposed a little, which made Gao Yuanming realize that at this moment, he came alone!

If the other three were also here, it would be impossible for him not to ask about the whereabouts of the "red-faced mermaid", but he did, and it was only related to him, the matter of Furukawa Yuki.

In that case, there is no need to hide it.

After knocking Nakagawa Dazang down, he kicked the dagger away again, and then Takato pulled out Nakagawa Dazang's belt and tied his hands.

Nakagawa Dazang was obviously stunned by this wrestling, and his head-down falling posture caused him a lot of damage, and his head was still dizzy, so he could only let Gao Yuan tie himself up.

This time, the form was completely reversed, and Gao Yuan, because of the second use of the "Hanging Man", accidentally discovered one thing - like the "chariot", the "Hanging Man" seems to have accumulated knowledge after use!

The accumulation of knowledge of the "chariot" is very obvious, he has never ridden a motorcycle before, but after using the "chariot", Gao Yuan has a bunch of knowledge about motorcycles in his mind, and this knowledge will not be forgotten with the failure of the special effects of the "chariot".

At the same time, because of the relationship between the "chariot", this time after using the "upside-down hanging man", Gao Yuan paid attention to this point - the "upside-down hanging man" also has a similar effect, after each use, when the other party falls, the movements and force methods that will be used will become knowledge and stay in the mind!

However, now Gao Yuan didn't have time to care about this, but looked at the controlled Nakagawa Dazang, and asked rhetorically: "Mr. Nakagawa, now, it's my turn to ask you questions!" ”

Early the next morning, departing from the island of the United States and returning to Fukui Prefecture, the earliest passenger ship had already departed, and Shiho Miyano, along with Gin and vodka, boarded the passenger ship early and prepared to return to the mainland.

On the aft deck, Shiho Miyano stood alone, looking at the island of America that was gradually moving away, and then couldn't help but smile - the sea breeze blew through her hair, and her smile looked unusually beautiful in the early morning sun.

However, it seemed that the temperature was still a little cold in the morning, and Shiho Miyano, who had only been there for a while, prepared to return to the cabin to rest, and put his hands in the pockets on both sides of his coat.

Suddenly, Shiho Miyano, who had just taken a step, was stunned - he stretched out his left hand, and a necklace inlaid with a dazzling ruby appeared in her hand!
