Chapter 210: Picked up teammates ask for monthly tickets ()
Hattori Heiji yawned and felt a little bored, and Conan felt the same.
But there were no entertainment activities on this island except the mermaid festival. Now that they were here, although they didn't win the dugong arrow, the ceremony of awarding the dugong arrow was said to be very lively, and there would be fireworks, so why not go and take a look.
Jiang Xia certainly agreed to this proposal.
The ceremony for awarding the Dugong Arrow will not begin until an hour later, so there is no need to rush.
So they went to have dinner together.
While killing time in the hotel, Jiang Xia condensed a puppet of Mist Tengu in a hidden place nearby.
Then he possessed the body, carried the mermaid ghost on his back, and flew to the mountain above the Mermaid Waterfall.
The open space below the waterfall is where the dugong arrows will be awarded.
Shimabukuro Kimie was not in the open space at this time, but like Jiang Xia, she was in the mountain above the waterfall - she had made a private appointment with Kaihara Nami to meet here.
Shimabukuro Kimie is the shrine maiden who shoots dugong arrows, and Kaihara Nami is obsessed with wanting dugong arrows, so it is not difficult to use this to ask her out.
…
Nami Kaihara arrived at the top of the waterfall as promised, but did not see Kimie Shimabukuro.
She walked to the river and kicked stones into the water out of boredom while waiting for someone.
Shimabukuro Kimie walked out quietly from behind the tree. She looked at the woman with her back to her with a complicated expression, holding a piece of rope, and walked towards her silently.
However, just as she was about to strangle the man, she heard a splash of water.
——A strange huge wave suddenly surged in the river, and clearly swept Kaihara Nami, who was standing on the river bank, into the water.
In the blink of an eye, the person Shimabukuro Kune wanted to kill was gone.
She looked at the empty river bank and was stunned for a moment.
The sound of water splashing around did not stop, but became more and more intense.
Shimabukuro Kimie walked closer cautiously and looked at Kaihara Nami struggling at the bottom of the river, feeling extremely confused.
The river was not deep, but no matter how hard Kaihara Nami struggled, she couldn't stand up. It seemed that something was entangled her underwater.
It was dark around, and Shimashiro Kimie could only vaguely see some outlines. She felt that the "thing" that entangled Kaihara Nami looked like a person with a fish tail, or...
A mermaid?!
Shimabukuro Kimie watched helplessly as her target was swept around by the water and spun several times. At the same time, the protective rope on the river bank fell off and fell into the river, spinning with Kaihara Nami.
Finally, the protective rope was tightly wrapped around Kaihara Nami's neck, forming a thick wild knot.
Then the woman in the river floated downstream, just like in Shimabukuro Kimie’s murder plan, fell off the cliff, and hung lifelessly in front of the waterfall.
Shimabukuro Kimie looked at the scene blankly, wondering if she was dreaming.
She looked into the water again, but there was nothing there. The "mermaid" just now seemed to be just her illusion.
But……
Shimashiro Kimie thought of the fresh corpse hanging on the waterfall, and could not convince herself that Kaihara Nami's death was just an accident.
And if we take the fact that "mermaids exist in the world" as a premise...
Although Haiyuan Nami won the lottery to obtain the Dugong's Arrow, she has not yet received the Dugong's Arrow because the awarding ceremony has not yet begun. Naturally, she will not be cursed by the mermaid for "losing the arrow".
But judging from what happened just now, the mermaid had a very clear hatred for her.
Think about Saori Kadowaki who drowned in the sea for no apparent reason not long ago...
Shimabukuro Kimie's heart suddenly moved.
The mermaid who had appeared in the river and killed Kaihara Nami before she could do anything...
Could it be her mother?
…
A dozen meters away, Jiang Xia sat on a tree and temporarily switched into Xiaobai's puppet.
As soon as Mist Tengu was freed from the puppet, he flew cautiously towards Shimashiro Kimie who was facing the river in deep thought.
It grabbed the rare murderous aura with the flavor of sweet and sour fish around the witch, and rolled up the detached part of the murderous aura into a big ball like rolling cotton candy.
Two of the people that Shimabukuro Kimie wanted to kill have already died on their own.
This part of her murderous aura could not be released on the deceased, and it would dissipate on its own in a few days.
Now that I'm here tonight, I'd be doing myself a disservice if I didn't take away that shaky murderous aura.
