Chapter 264: Conan and Heiji



In the eyes of others.

Tang Ze was like the villains in the movies who knew the other party's secrets. He just half-knelt in front of Menxie Saori and whispered a few words in her ear.

Then, as if she had heard something terrifying, Menxie Saori on the side jumped out and turned against them, and began to answer Tang Ze's questions honestly.

Then, amid the uproar of the island residents, he slowly told them everything that happened in the fire three years ago.

Afterwards, he successfully dragged two other people into the water. The other two began to show their ugly faces and started blaming each other for who was the mastermind.

"Thank you, Detective Tang Ze."

As a clear, young female voice suddenly rang out, the abusive insults came to an abrupt end.

Ming-sama's short figure suddenly became tall, and the next moment Shimabukuro Kimie took off her mask, revealing her true appearance.

This unexpected change was different from the uproar that Shimabukuro Kimie had imagined. Except for the three people who were arguing with each other and Maori Kogoro and others who were just there to watch, who could not hide their shock, the other residents on the island did not show much shock.

It turned out that the person who was burned to death in the fire three years ago was Shimabukuro Kimie's mother, and the older generation of residents on the island had already known about it.

For Kojima's sake, they silently accepted the fact that Shimabukuro Kimie was pretending to be the longevity lady.

In the end, when the older generation collectively knelt down to apologize to Shimabukuro Kimie, the heartbroken Shimabukuro Kimie couldn't stop crying.

After learning that the person they were trying to kill was impersonated by Shimabukuro Kimie and that the person they burned to death was Shimabukuro Kimie's mother, Saori Monkyo, Sumi Ebihara, and Naoko Kuroe suddenly woke up from their fanaticism and were filled with guilt and regret.

And they will also face legal judgment and pay the price they deserve.

And the dugong festival on Mermaid Island disappeared forever from that day on.

Conan, Hattori Heiji and others were more shocked by this incident.

What's going on? Have we traveled through time or just missed a few days?

How did the case suddenly go beyond the scope of finding someone and become an old story hidden throughout the entire island?

After curiously asking Karasawa, Conan and Hattori Heiji... became withdrawn.

Because Tang Ze once again prevented the case from happening!

Moreover, after just half a day on the island, he had investigated everything clearly and also solved an old case from three years ago.

As the saying goes, "experts see the details, while laymen see the excitement." The three girls were more amazed at Tang Ze's skills, but they had no idea how difficult it was.

But from the high-level perspective of Conan and Hattori, two famous detectives, we can see how great the difficulty is.

Although he had been beaten by the other party so many times, he was really autistic this time.

We are all on the same island. Look at others and then look at yourself.

The two of them were still confusedly looking for Monkyo Saori, while Tang Ze had already focused on the overall situation, following the clues to find the mastermind and stop the other party's murder plan.

If it weren't for Karasawa who saw through the whole story behind Monkyo Saori's disappearance and stopped Shimabukuro Kimie from committing the crime, they would probably have seen someone's body at Mermaid Waterfall by now.

"Detective Tang Ze, how did you find out all this?" Conan, who was standing by, suddenly realized what was going on after listening to Tang Ze's account of the entire case on the island. At the same time, he was curious about how Tang Ze had figured out the clues.

Heiji Hattori and I had racked our brains, but we still couldn't find any flaws anywhere.

To be honest, after Conan knew the whole story, he felt that if Detective Karasawa had not followed them, he and Hattori Heiji would probably have to run after the criminal.

By then, I'm afraid all three of them would be finished.

“This is actually very simple.”

Tang Ze looked at the curious Hattori Heiji and the other man and smiled, saying, "You two are too focused on the disappearance of Monkyo Saori, but have ignored the cause and effect of it."

"The cause and effect?" Hattori Heiji frowned. "Are you talking about the reason behind Monkyou Saori's disappearance? The letter said she was afraid of retaliation from the mermaid..."

"Yes, that's it, the mermaid."

Tang Ze nodded and said, "Then have you ever thought about how the legend of mermaids came about? And why does Monkyo Saori believe in it so firmly?"

"But can we see the full picture of the matter just by investigating these?"

Conan frowned and said, "From the intelligence we gathered on the island, we learned that the legend of mermaids comes from the longevity of destiny, and that Monkyo Saori's disappearance is also due to the fear of mermaids.

I really don't understand how you, Detective Tang Ze, can see the whole story from these things."

"So, your vision is too limited."

Tang Ze sighed and taught like an older brother, "You should use a broader perspective to understand the full picture of the matter, make bold assumptions, and then carefully verify them yourself.

Have you ever thought that just one centenarian can inspire such fanatical beliefs in three young people?

But why do the older people on the island not have this reaction at all?"

As he spoke, Tang Ze took out his phone and showed the two of them the text message he had prepared long ago, "This is the information on the island that I asked Officer Gao Mu to help me investigate.

If you knew about the incident three years ago, you would be able to easily connect it to what is happening now."

This text message was sent by Tang Ze, who took the time to ask Officer Takagi to help him deal with this moment.

He knew that after the case was solved, Conan and Hattori Heiji would definitely ask him questions, so he had already thought of a way to deal with it.

Conan and Hattori Heiji, who were standing by, fell into silence for a long time after hearing what Tang Ze did.

Without intelligence, it is inevitable that more accurate judgments cannot be made.

This case once again made them realize their own shortcomings.

Don’t say that Tang Ze used his identity to inquire about news on the island.

With this amount of connections, wouldn't Conan and Hattori Heiji have enough?

"Kudo from Kanto and Hattori from Kansai" are both famous high school detectives.

First up is Kudo Shinichi from Kanto, who, with his father's connections and his own excellent reasoning skills, is called the "savior of the police" by the media.

Being a second-generation rich or star does not bring any negative impact. Instead, he has many little fans, and even celebrities like him.

Next is Hattori Heiji from Kansai. With the support of his father, Hattori Heizo, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, it is not difficult for him to ask his father's men to find out information on a small island.

But they didn't think of this. This is because the preparation work was not done well enough, and there is a gap in awareness and judgment!
