Into the Ke Xue World by mistake

Chapter 191 Mermaid Skeleton
With the light of the fireworks blooming, everyone looked in the direction of the shouting person's finger.

Suddenly, it was discovered that above the waterfall, a figure was hanging there.

The woman with shawl-length hair and slowly swaying from side to side is like a mermaid swimming upstream in a waterfall.

The difference was that her face was so pale that it frightened everyone present.

……

A group of people quickly ran up the mountain and released the figure from the waterfall.

The corpse was none other than Ebihara Sumi, who was happy because she won the lottery at the ceremony not long ago.

The person who was obviously alive and kicking not long ago has turned into a cold corpse at this time.

Except for Shirakawa Yuki, everyone's complexion was not very good.

But Shirakawa Yuki knew that this person's death was not a crime. She had been in the black organization for many years, and it was not that she had no human life in her hands. She would never have a good face for such a person who died with a crime.

Fortunately, no one has noticed her current expression, otherwise the other party will find that there is no pity for a life lost on her face, and the whole person gives people a sense of indifference to life, as if she doesn't care about how many people die. Wouldn't care in general.

"Shoumi, could it be that she committed suicide, or did someone kill her?" Looking at the corpse in front of her, Junhui Shimabukuro exclaimed.

Fukuyama Rokuro, who was kneeling beside the corpse, shook his head, "No, neither of the two things you mentioned is possible."

As he spoke, he picked up the wooden stick tied at the other end of the rope around the corpse's neck, "The one tied around Sumi's neck is a fixed rope specially set on the river bank to prevent danger."

"Is that right?"

Hearing his words, Mori Kogoro picked up the rope on the ground, and suddenly realized: "So that's it, that is to say, Miss Shoumei lost her center of gravity after she walked to the river in the dark.

She grabbed the rope, but the water was so fast that the stake fell off, and she was strangled to death by the rope on the way down the waterfall. "

At this time, Hattori Heiji said suspiciously: "But, don't you think it's strange? The celebration in the village is obviously held under the waterfall. Why does she have to come to the forest at this time?"

"She probably wants to find the mermaid's grave!"

Everyone turned their heads and found that it was Naoko Heijiang who made the sound.

"what!"

Naoko Kuroe explained: "Because the mermaid's grave is somewhere in this forest.

The bones of the mermaid were buried here after the warehouse of the shrine caught fire on the night of the festival three years ago. "

Junhui Shimabukuro nodded, "It's possible to say that, I know Sumi has always been very concerned about that matter."

Hattori Heiji interrupted their conversation, "Wait a minute, you're always talking about mermaids, are you sure that the skeleton is really that of a mermaid?"

Shimabukuro Junhui explained: "It's hard to say. The villagers on the island said so, but the police from the mainland thought it was the skeleton of a middle-aged woman."

"It's nonsense!" Naoko Heijiang scolded angrily.

"The bones below the waist of that skeleton can only be said so!"

Mori Kogoro was a little surprised, "Below the waist..."

Fukuyama Rokuro explained: "Because a burnt beam happened to fall near the waist of the skeleton, the villagers removed the beam and found that the place where the foot bones should have been were all smashed, so TV Only then will it be reported that the corpse of a mermaid has appeared here."

Naoko Kuroe added: "Longevity woman also became a celebrity overnight."

Conan asked suspiciously: "But didn't the police say that she was a middle-aged woman?"

Junhui Shimabukuro nodded, "Yes, they suspect that tourists who didn't get the dugong's arrow sneaked into the warehouse in order to find whether there is a backup arrow.

The main reason why warehouses catch fire is probably the disaster caused by lighting candles.

A year later, its identity was not found out, so its bones were buried by the shrine.

But then something went wrong! "

Hearing this, everyone was a little puzzled.

"What happened?"

Fukuyama Rokuro said: "Someone came to rob the tomb."

"what?"

"Later, some tourists unexpectedly wanted to pry open the tomb and steal the mermaid bones inside."

Heijiang Naoko said: "They say that the skeleton of a mermaid is also a panacea for immortality."

Junhui Shimabukuro continued: "That's why my great-grandmother asked someone to secretly move that tomb to this forest for burial last year."

Mori Kogoro asked curiously: "Then, who is she asking?"

Junhui Shimabukuro shook her head, "I don't know, I just heard that she is someone she can trust."

Mori Kogoro nodded, and then said: "Whether it is a suicide, a homicide or an accident, the only thing to do is to get Miss Shoumei's body down the mountain first, and then study it after the police arrive."

Fukuyama Rokuro picked up the corpse and snorted coldly: "If this is a homicide, there must be something wrong with Shoumei who came to such a place behind everyone's back at this time."

Heijiang Naoko sneered and said, "Really, your fiancée just had an accident, you are so cruel!"

"His fiancee?" Mori Kogoro looked curiously at Naoko Kuroe.

"It was a marriage decided by our parents without authorization, and it has nothing to do with me.

Besides, my parents are long gone, and this matter is even more unacceptable. "

After all, Fukuyama Rokuro went down the mountain with Ebihara Sumi's body in his arms.

……

"father!"

At the foot of the mountain, Xiaolan and Yuanzi who went to call the police quickly came back.

Looking at the two, Mori Kogoro asked, "Have you contacted the Fukui prefectural police?"

Xiaolan said: "We contacted, but they said that the waves are too big now, so there is no way to come to the island for the time being."

"What are you doing!" Mori Kogoro frowned.

Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "That would be great!"

Mori Kogoro looked at him suspiciously.

Hattori Heiji explained: "In this way, the murderer will never want to leave this island."

Mori Kogoro felt a little helpless, "Please, what kind of murderer!

It has not yet been determined that this incident must be a homicide case. "

Hattori Heiji smiled, and took out the life buoy under his arm, "In this case, look at this!"

"Lifebuoy?"

Conan explained: "This life buoy was originally stuck on the river connecting the waterfall and the sea. My brother Heiji and I just found it."

Hattori Heiji said with a smile: "If the murderer kills Miss Sumi first, then strangles her neck with a rope, and uses a lifebuoy to let her slide down, he can naturally hang on the waterfall.

When we saw Miss Sumi at the shrine just now, it was two hours before the fireworks were released, and it took less than an hour to go to and from the top of the waterfall.

This means that this crime can be committed by both men and women.

And the murderer is hiding somewhere on this island right now. "

Having said that, he straightened the brim of his hat, and his expression gradually became serious.

Hearing his words, Xiaolan looked around, now he always felt that everyone might be the murderer.

"What should I do?"

He Ye patted her hand, "Don't worry, the murderer will be caught soon."

"what?"

He Ye looked at the black-skinned boy who was talking about something with Mori Kogoro, and said softly, "Every time Heiji puts his hat on the front, it means that his motivation has come."

Saying that, Kazuha also looked at Shirakawa Yuki beside him, "Hauna, you can't like Heiji!"

Shirakawa Yuki looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "What's wrong?"

He Ye blushed and said, "Because compared to you, I have no chance of winning at all.

After all, even though you are about the same age as me, Haruna, you are a graduate student from a prestigious school, and the most important thing is that you are also a very good detective, and Heci has a common topic.

Compared to this, I really suck! "

As she spoke, her eyes gradually dimmed.

Seeing her appearance, Shirakawa Yuki chuckled, "Oh shit, I don't like that Osaka black chicken, compared to that, I still think a fragrant and soft girl like Kazuya is more suitable for me .

You are so cute, He Ye! "

Saying that, Shirakawa Yuki saved Kazuha who was already blushing beside her, and rubbed her face with her face.

"Oh, what are you doing, Haruna!"

After some operations, He Ye's face became more rosy, and there seemed to be steam coming out of his head.

Xiaolan beside her watched this scene with a smile.

Not far away, Hattori Heiji also noticed the movements of the three girls.

Looking at the two people who got together, Hattori Heiji curled his lips.

For some reason, he felt a little jealous in his heart, as if he should be the one beside He Ye.

Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about this matter and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the reasoning of the case.
