Chapter 3164 3176 [Putting the blame on someone]
Even such a strange outfit couldn't completely conceal her beauty.
This beautiful woman like a black pearl walked into the crowd, shifted her gaze, and looked at Jiang Xia with a hint of a smile, but her words were directed to her two colleagues: "This young man is a famous detective in Tokyo, and that child is often on the news with him - you took this job, but you didn't even find out such basic things?"
"Why are you asking about this?" Huang Mao snorted indifferently, "A guy who doesn't even have a high school diploma is pretending to be a detective - who knows if those cases were solved by luck."
Curacao glanced at him, then moved slightly and shrank further away.
The program director quickly interrupted: "Don't say that. Mr. Jiang Xia's detective skills have been tested countless times. Besides, he doesn't have a high school diploma just because he hasn't graduated yet. In fact, Mr. Jiang Xia's grades are very good. I heard that many of his fans even offer his portrait before the exam!"
Curacao thought about that scene, and his eyes twitched slightly: "..." What's the use of offering such a thing? - Even if there is, compared to blessing those candidates to do well in the exam, the way it works is probably just to make the invigilator suddenly have an accident and make it convenient for the candidates to cheat, or when the candidates fail the exam, let the examiner or other people who touch the test paper suddenly die, and the blood will be spilled on the test paper, the test paper will be scrapped, and an extra make-up exam will be required...
When one of the organization members thought of the countless murders related to the exam.
Next to him, Huangmao was still looking at his pockets, arguing unhappily with the program director.
The middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat frowned and listened for a while. He couldn't help but shouted to the people on the other side of the wall: "What are you arguing about! We set out late today, so we have to hurry over and come back. Otherwise, once the sun sets, those ghosts will come out to claim our lives - right, Captain."
The captain was a middle-aged man with curly hair and tanned skin. He drove the boat silently without saying a word.
The other people on the boat all caught the key words with their sharp ears.
Curacao raised her head, and beside her, Mao Lilan's hair stood up: "'Show up and take my life'...you, what are you talking about?"
The middle-aged man in the captain's room was talking and laughing loudly with the captain and did not hear the faint question that was drowned out by the waves.
Huang Mao heard it. He stood on tiptoe and made a ghost pose. He stuck out his tongue and whispered into the ears of two high school girls standing close together: "Of course I'm talking about ghosts! When it gets dark, they will quietly appear and suck away human souls - this is a famous legend on our Okinawa Island."
The young man with half-grown black hair also said grimly, "It is said that if a woman starts weaving at night, then the souls of the dead dressed in shrouds will come from the underworld, quietly climb ashore, and suck away the souls of the living."
Mao Lilan: "!!!"
Her horrified look made the two young men burst into laughter, while the black pearl-like woman snorted, "You two are the only ones who talk too much. I was planning to go swimming after we get to the island. How can I enjoy the waves now that you're talking like this?"
The three young locals left noisily.
Hattori Heiji looked at Black Pearl and remembered that she had just said she wanted to swim. He suddenly murmured, "White."
"Hmm?" Conan heard Hattori Heiji's voice. His eyes lit up and he quickly pulled his friend aside. Then he whispered stealthily like a thief, "What white? You found the clue so quickly?"
Hattori Heiji came back to his senses: "I mean the swimsuit - believe it or not, the swimsuit that sister prepared must be a white high-cut swimsuit."
Conan: “……?”
Hattori Heiji snorted and said proudly, "Don't disbelieve me. When I went to the beach to play before, I was bored and speculated what kind of swimsuits those women with their bodies buried underwater and only their heads above the water would choose - guess what? I guessed it right! If Jiang Xia competed with me in this, I would definitely crush him!...Eh? Why are you walking away? I haven't finished yet!"
Conan closed his ears and walked faster: What's the use of being gifted in this kind of thing? It's so shameful!
"Although it's exciting to 'beat Jiang Xia', but beating him in this aspect..."
The mini detective with a good imagination was silent for a moment, and a picture slowly emerged in his mind: in the tragic background music, he solemnly found Jiang Xia and threw a letter of challenge. Jiang Xia took the letter of challenge and found that it showed a group of beautiful women in bikinis, and the title of the letter of challenge was "Decisive Battle! The Top of Swimsuits"...
...It's so embarrassing!
Conan twitched his toes and sighed heavily: "This guy Hattori is really unreliable. I better work harder and try to be on the same level as Jiang Xia when we officially broadcast live tomorrow."
…
10 minutes later.
On Ghost Turtle Island.
Clear water, blue sky, and flying seagulls.
Conan and Hattori Heiji stood on the shore, silently looking at a figure in the water.
——Black Pearl was not defeated by the ghost stories of her two companions. She still went swimming as soon as she got on the island.
However, unlike the imagined scene of a beauty playing in the water, this behavior should be more described as "diving" rather than swimming - she was wearing a heavy black diving suit.
The boat was sailing around randomly. Black Pearl floated to the surface and shouted impatiently, "Captain, sail further away. Don't make such big waves!"
"A white high-cut swimsuit?" Conan looked at her and chuckled, "It looks like just a black rubber diving suit."
Hattori Heiji scratched his head awkwardly: "That's strange, I've never guessed wrong before."
Suddenly he remembered something and looked at Conan: "Didn't you just say that you weren't interested in this kind of thing? But now why don't you go somewhere else to play, or stick to Xiaolan, but instead come with me to look at the answer together?"
"..." Conan also became embarrassed, but of course, he still said stubbornly, "You also said it was the 'answer' - I am a detective, even if your reasoning is boring and useless, I want to witness your failure."
"Humph, this is just an accident." Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered something and looked around. After a moment, he threw away the swimsuit and whispered to Conan: "Okay, that suspicious lawyer is finally not with us - how could she suddenly appear here? Is their conspiracy against Jiang Xia not over yet?"
