Chapter 3165 3177 [Lawyer Shirai's Beauty Trap] Ask for monthly votesヽ(〃〃)~
"I don't know either." Conan sighed. He was also quite afraid of "Lawyer Shirai" - if those suspicious guys attacked directly, he could at least use the police to protect himself. But now, these people didn't confront him head-on. They just followed Jiang Xia like wandering souls. It was unknown what they wanted to do...
"I hope it's just a coincidence." Conan comforted himself with an excuse he didn't even believe. "I asked Jiang Xia, and the content of their conversation was quite normal - of course, the better scenario is that Miss Shirai is not from that organization, I just thought too much."
Hattori Heiji shook his head: "If she is not a member of her organization, how do you explain that she always 'happens' to appear next to Jiang Xia? - I can feel that Jiang Xia seems to admire her very much. This organization will not shamelessly use the honey trap or something like that."
The two were whispering nervously, when suddenly, Suzuki Sonoko's voice came from a distance: "What are you two doing? Come here! - Jiang Xia has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Hattori Heiji and Conan turned around and found Jiang Xia and the program director standing in front of a dilapidated two-story villa.
The two sides looked at each other, and the program director waved at him: "Come on! This is the wonderful text I mentioned before."
Hattori Heiji stood up, responded as if nothing had happened, and walked over there.
Before leaving, he remembered something and looked back. He found that the young woman like a black pearl was still wearing the heavy diving suit and swimming in the sea.
"Gone." Conan also looked back and whispered, "Ms. Shirai is also in front. You should be careful and don't look at her too much, lest she notices something."
"Do I need you to tell me that?" Hattori Heiji came back to his senses, snorted, and walked over naturally.
…
The wooden railings at the entrance of the dusty villa were engraved with a few old words:
[The princess rests here, she is A, not B]
The program director looked at the piece of wood and sighed with mixed feelings: "The body was found here - according to the person who found him at the time, the body was sitting on the ground with his back against this piece of wood. The two lines of words were revealed only after he was moved away."
"There were no fatal injuries on the body. It looked like he had not eaten or drunk anything for several days and nights before he died. The way he died was really scary, so the boatmen who saw him at the time said that his soul had been sucked dry by a sea monster."
Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran leaned against each other trembling.
Curacao glanced at them: "..." How dedicated! Should I also follow the trend and be afraid, so as not to appear too abrupt here?
"No, they are high school girls. It's normal for them to be scared when they hear something like this." Curacao shook his head in his heart, "And I'm a lawyer now. If I'm scared, it would seem too fake."
When a member of the organization was secretly distracted.
Next to him, Jiang Xia looked at the piece of wood and said to the program director, "Let's not talk about the words on the wooden sign for now. Judging from the way the body died, it looks like a shipwreck that was stranded on this island. Was there a shipwreck nearby when the body was found?"
The program director was full of admiration: "To be honest, there was a typhoon in this area at that time, so the police also suspected that the deceased encountered a typhoon while on the boat, drifted all the way to this uninhabited island, and then starved to death here.
"But strangely, after the police announced the body, there was no corresponding missing person report, and no one came to the police station to claim the body, so until today, this case has not been officially closed."
As he spoke, he looked at the wood with inscriptions in front of him with a sigh: "If it weren't for these strange words, this incident would have been treated as an ordinary typhoon shipwreck."
Suzuki Sonoko listened to him and suddenly discovered a blind spot: "Since it is an uninhabited island, who built this villa? Although it looks shabby, it has been exposed to the wind and sun on the island for so many years, and the main structure is very solid. The materials and construction level seem to be very good."
"You are very knowledgeable." Someone behind them smiled, "This was built by the mayor of Jincheng. He is a well-known tycoon, so of course the materials are good."
A few people turned around and found that the person who spoke was the beautiful woman like a black pearl - she had finished swimming without knowing when, and was now holding a towel, wiping her dripping hair.
The heavy black diving suit had been taken off and thrown on the boat. She was now wearing a cool swimsuit - a white high-cut swimsuit.
"!!" Hattori Heiji quietly poked Conan: See! I've said it before - in this field, I have never lost, no one can beat me!
"..." Conan silently moved a few steps to the side, away from this embarrassing colleague who was burning with anger for some unknown reason.
Black Pearl, wrapped in a white swimsuit, did not notice the two people's little movements. She looked at the villa in front of her:
"I heard that this villa used to be the vacation home of the mayor of Jincheng. Later, the house was damaged by a typhoon, and he was too lazy to repair it, so it gradually became dilapidated."
The first officer also came over. He looked up at the villa and said with some emotion: "This house is completely different from what I saw before. It's like Urashima Taro suddenly returning to reality."
Urashima Taro is a famous character in the legend. He was originally just an ordinary fisherman, but one day on the beach, he saved a turtle that was being teased by a child. So the turtle invited him to the Dragon Palace in order to repay the favor.
In the Dragon Palace, Urashima Taro was warmly received, but when he returned to the shore, he found that many years had passed on land. His relatives had passed away, the village was dilapidated, and everything had changed beyond recognition as time passed.
This apt description immediately reminded people of the former glory of the villa. However, Hattori Heiji was obviously not impressed by this literary statement. He looked at the deputy captain and said, "So, you used to visit this island often?"
The deputy captain nodded and recalled the past: "Yes. You may not know that this island used to be a hidden tourist spot. Fishermen would use their own small boats to take guests to the island to make some extra money. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, there were no tourists here at all, and I haven't been here for many years."
He recalled: "The last time I came here was probably two years ago. I didn't even go ashore that time. I just took a look at the scenery of the island while fishing for horse mackerel nearby."
