Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

In the Shimadai family, an old mansion, Gao Cheng and his party were sitting around the guest room, and it gradually started to rain heavily outside.

"Looking at this, the police probably won't be able to come tomorrow..."

Gao Cheng stood at the door looking at the dark night in the rain, and then looked towards the end of the corridor: "And that old grandma, why haven't you come after waiting for so long..."

Xiaolan smiled and said: "Ms. Junhui said just now that she would try to call her great-grandmother, but the grandmother is already very tired because of today's festival, and may not be able to call us."

"Huh?" Gao Cheng took the door and returned to the stove to sit down. "Do you know how the number plates are selected?"

"Well, I heard people on the island say that it seems to be putting a lot of numbered cards in a big box. Everyone line up to draw one," Xiaolan replied, "the one hundred and eight numbered cards are all drawn. So far, then the old grandma will pick out three of these numbers during the festival."

"One hundred and eight, three..." Gao Cheng propped his chin, and suddenly heard a thumping on the floor from the corridor outside.

"Ok?"

"It's just you guys looking for something to do with me?" The wooden door opened, and an old woman with a wrinkled face and a cane appeared in front of everyone, her voice hoarse and her face pale, and she looked like a mountain witch.

Conan was taken aback, swallowed and asked, "Please, excuse me... Granny, how did you decide the number of the dugong arrow?"

The longevity woman stared at the people in the house for a while, and suddenly smiled: "It depends on the situation. Sometimes I use the numbers I won on horse racing, haha."

"In that case," Hattori said with a smile, "Why don't you only give three pieces a year and not sell more?"

"That's impossible," the longevity woman pinched a white hair, regretfully said, "The hair I can use to tie those arrows is already very limited..."

"Great-grandmother!" Shimadai Junhui shouted from the other side, "I have already put the bath water for you!"

The longevity woman heard the shout and walked away: "Sorry, if you have nothing important, I will take a bath and sleep..."

Conan said anxiously, "But I still have something to ask..."

"Also," the longevity woman paused and looked at Kazuya in the room, "the little girl over there, the arrow of dugong was originally an arrow of exorcism and evil spirits. If you let it leave her side, the monster will be there. If you build a nest on your body, if you are a man, you will enter the earth and become a heartless hungry ghost, if you are a woman, you will enter the water and become a mermaid who cannot speak!

"I advise you to take it with you for a while."

"Really, I didn't ask too many things in the end..." Gao Cheng leaned to the door, watching the godly longevity woman leave, and suddenly stunned.

"what?"

"What's wrong?" Conan asked strangely, "Cito Brother, is there any problem?"

"Ah, no."

Gao Cheng withdrew his gaze, paused, and said to Ye with anxiety, "The longevity woman can't see anything special at all. Don't worry about monsters or anything."

"But," Heye clutched the arrow of the dugong, "Did Miss Saori disappeared because she lost her arrow? Maybe she has become a mermaid..."

"Come on," Hattori said in a huff, "that old woman doesn't seem to be able to live long by herself. What kind of mermaid revenge, do you really believe it?"

The next day, the sky still did not improve, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder rang.

Gao Cheng borrowed an umbrella and asked the villagers about the location. He rushed to Menwaki's house with Hui Yuan, but he rang the doorbell several times without responding.

"Strange, isn't that uncle at home?"

"What should I do now?" Hui Yuan said lightly with his hands behind his back, "Would you like to go back?"

"How could it be possible to go back now? That uncle is not here just right..."

Gao Cheng looked around, his eyes fell on the potted plants placed at the door.

"Generally, this kind of people may hide spare keys somewhere outside...have them."

Picking up a few potted plants one after another, there was a key under the potted plants on the side.

Gao Cheng grinned: "Let's see."

Hui Yuan's face collapsed: "You don't want to invade illegally, do you?"

"Just take a look, it's okay..."

"Hey!" Fukuyama Lulang passed the door and saw Gao Cheng opening the door with the key, and shouted, "What are you doing?"

"Huh?" Gao Cheng froze, turned his head back with a dry smile, scratched the back of his head and said, "It's Mr. Lulang, haha, we originally wanted to find Mr. Monwaki, but he doesn't seem to be at home..."

Fukuyama Lulang said coldly: "If you want him, he went to the izakaya for a drink last night, and he didn't come back all night."

"Yes, are you?" Gao Cheng held the key, neither leaving nor staying, he smiled embarrassedly, "Well, it's actually nothing, we just want to investigate Miss Saori's room, maybe we can find this case. clue……"

Lulang Fukuyama took a close look at Gao Cheng, and took the lead to walk into Menwaki's house and said, "If you are just investigating Saori's room, please hurry up. If his drunk dad comes back, you will be in trouble."

"That," Gao Cheng was stunned, followed the young man, "Is there anything unusual before Miss Saori disappeared?"

Fukuyama Lulang said calmly: "Even the wind and waves on the sea were a little bit bigger, she was terribly scared, saying that the mermaid would seek her revenge... well, this is Saori's room."

"Thanks."

Gao Cheng quickly glanced at the room, bookcases, lockers, tables, beds, floor-to-ceiling windows... It looks clear at a glance, clean and tidy, and not messy at all, but apart from some dolls, it can’t be seen that it’s a girl’s room because it’s pretty good. Sex, there are even fanatical fighting game posters.

Gao Cheng walked straight to the bed and opened the duffel bag on the head of the bed.

"Headache medicine, toothbrush... Miss Saori seems to have prepared a lot..."

"That's the standard equipment when Saori runs away from home." Fukuyama Rokuro explained.

"Leave these things here," Gao Cheng looked through his luggage, his eyes narrowed, "That is to say, Miss Saori didn't go where, but something happened..."

"It's not easy to say," Fukuyama Lulang hesitated, "because she almost always goes to Junhui's house every time she ran away from home, so Junhui's house seems to have something to change clothes and even backup glasses."

"But there is no one in Miss Junhui's house, isn't it?"

Gao Cheng poured out all the contents in the bag.

"Moreover, even if you go to the island, you don't even have to bring a single certificate, right? Deposit books, debit cards, seals, driver's licenses... even the passports are put in the bag... Will the average person leave them behind when they run away from home? ?

"Maybe ~www.NovelMTL.com~ something unexpected happened to her before she was about to leave home..."

"Unexpected thing?" Fukuyama Lulang's lips dried.

"It might be the worst case."

Gao Cheng put down his credentials in a deep voice, continued to check in the room, and found an album on the cabinet.

From the photos, most of them are group photos of 5 haircutters. Saori Kadowaki seems to be a short-haired girl with brown hair wearing glasses and dyeing it.

Fukuyama Rokuro said with nostalgia: "These photos were taken during the filming of the film "Bhikkhuni Monogatari" when we were in college. At that time, we also won a gold award for Saori's special photography and Junhui's special makeup..."

"Is it……"

Gao Cheng snapped the album closed, with a thoughtful look on his face.
