capitalist in famous detective

Chapter 42

Longevity woman's house is just behind the shrine, not a short distance from the reception specially designed for 'VIP'.

Unlike Shikishima, which Shirakawa had visited before, American Island benefited from the existence of the mermaid legend, and its development situation is much better. At least the infrastructure such as supermarkets and hospitals is very complete.There is also a construction site on the island. It is said that real estate developers saw the potential here and planned to build villas and sell them at a high price to the distinguished guests who come to the island once a year.

It can be said that compared to the large number of ordinary tourists, those guys who have never been seen in the ship are the pillars supporting the economic development of Mermaid Island.It's a pity that this pillar will be kicked off by a elementary school student of death two years later.

Losing the legend of the mermaid, this island, which is even more remote than Shikishima, can only return to the most primitive fishing life.

'Why don't you give me a hand? '

For Shirakawa, the prosperity of the United States has nothing to do with him, and he has no interest in participating in the revenge of Shimaobi Kimie, but apart from the legend of the immortal mermaid, the next one who can gather most of Japan's dignitaries It is estimated that we will have to wait until the press conference of the cross-age game console 'Cocoon'.

And the game console conference only happens once in a lifetime, but the Mermaid Festival happens every year!Maybe one day I can find a chance to relax my world consciousness and complete hypnosis.

It is not difficult for the mermaid legend to continue to exist, as long as the murderers who killed Shidao Dai Junhui's mother are killed in advance to stop her revenge plan.

Without the revenge plan, there will be no attention from Conan and Hattori.

Without attracting the attention of the death detectives, Shimaobi Junhui's identity will not be exposed, and she can always play the role of a long-lived woman, maintaining her personality as a 130-year-old old woman.

"Please wait patiently, I'm going to ask my grandma to come out."

After walking for about half an hour, Shirakawa's trio finally arrived at the apse of the shrine, Shimaoi Junhui said goodbye first on the grounds of inviting her grandma.

Bai Chuan was not worried about whether the group of them could see the longevity woman. Before Miss Shimao left, he had stuffed at least five thousand dollars into the pocket of the maiden uniform, which would be seven or eight million yen.

The price of 80 million is just for a meeting. I believe Miss Shimao doesn't mind dressing up for it.

"What about the part-timers on the boat? It feels like there are far fewer people getting off the boat than expected!"

While waiting for Shimao Mitsue to change her outfit, Shirakawa chatted with Miyano Shiho without anything to say.

"Those people will probably send their own butlers or other subordinates to enter the island to draw qualifications. If they disembark by themselves to participate in such activities, it will be troublesome if they are photographed."

Right.

Bai Chuan nodded, he thought that the world consciousness deliberately prevented these people from disembarking in order to prevent himself, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

"Who wants to see the old man?" A hoarse old voice sounded, and an old woman who was shorter than Conan's height slowly pushed open the barrier door and walked out of the room.

"Are you a long-lived woman?" Naturally, Bai Chuan had to do the communication: "You don't look like a 130-year-old person at all!"

"Why, do you want to see the old man's certificate?"

"How could it be?" Bai Chuan looked at Gin with a smirk. Qin Jiang once recognized Bellmode who was disguised as a bartender in the full moon chapter. Facing this disguise whose disguise level is at least one level lower, it should be It will be seen through soon.

It's a pity that he was wrong. Qin Jiu had no expression on his face and seemed to have not noticed anything wrong with the old woman in front of him. As a last resort, Bai Chuan could only continue to procrastinate.

"Have you ever eaten mermaid meat?"

"Do dugong arrows really have the ability to make people live forever?"

After asking a few more questions, Changshou Po returned to the house on the grounds that she was unwell. The whole conversation took only about 10 minutes, and Bai Chuan paid 80 million yuan for it.

This price is enough for Mori Kogoro to complete at least ten cat-finding missions or five rape-catching missions as a commission fee. The price/performance ratio is really low.

"Well, did you see anything?"

Seeing nothing, Miyano Shiho shifted his gaze to Shirakawa, who was still easy to talk to. Gin was hopeless. I hope this guy who is somewhat similar to Gin can start to play a role.

"The time is too short, and the old woman deliberately kept people from getting too close. I guess there is something inside. I think I should find an opportunity to sneak into the shrine and observe it."

"Get in? You?" Qin Jiu expressed doubts about Bai Chuan's skills.

"It's not me, could it be you?" Bai Chuan sternly for a rare moment, with the gaze of gin killing people, he replied:
"Look at your black skin. I'm afraid that others won't know that you are going to sneak in? And if you go in, you will either sweep randomly or explode, and see what useful things you can find by then?"

Gin's face became even uglier, but he surprisingly didn't object.Although it was a bit exaggerated, most of what Bai Chuan said was really not a lie.

He's not good at sneaking in.

Miyano Shiho on the side stared blankly, this was the first time she saw someone dare to talk to Gin like this, and Gin hadn't pulled out his gun yet and jumped him.

This relationship is intriguing!
"Uh, Senior Gin, I was the one who spoke too loudly just now. Please don't take it to heart!"

After saying that, Bai Chuan actually felt a little regretful, but it seems too late to make amends now.Therefore, he almost ran towards the distance at a speed of sprinting [-] meters, and his voice seemed a little distorted under the high-speed movement.

"Humph!"

Gin reached out and held the Beretta M92F in his pocket. If Bai Chuan didn't bring any news back tonight, a bullet in the gun was a gift for him.

As for Rum's order, haven't you heard a sentence called "the general is out, and the king's orders are not accepted"?

----------

At night, the warehouse that had been set on fire last year was burning again.

The raging flames danced recklessly, illuminating the entire shrine brightly. The billowing smoke accompanied by the screams of passers-by made Gin, who was still waiting for the results of Bai Chuan's investigation, more and more murderous on his face.

"what happened?"

Miyano Shiho, who had already fallen asleep, also came to the window, looking at the flames soaring to the sky not far away, he seemed to recall something bad.

"It's nothing, but the matter about the mermaid is more magical than imagined." Bai Chuan's voice came from outside the room, with a faint smell of burning.

Opening the door, Bai Chuan was thrown over his shoulder by Qin Jiu to the ground, and then a dagger stabbed straight down.

"Gin?" Miyano Shiho exclaimed, apparently taken aback by this sudden move.

"It really has nothing to do with me." Bai Chuan hurriedly explained, avoiding the dagger attack with his head tilted:
"There are three women in the warehouse. They lit the warehouse on fire when they held an unknown ceremony. I watched from outside the door the whole time without moving a finger."

Bai Chuan's explanation did not make Qin Jiu relax, and the dagger in his hand was sent forward, directly cutting a wound on Bai Chuan's neck.

"Tell me everything you have done!"
