Detective Conan: The Grey Winged Angel

Chapter 444: Clues to the golden ship

   May 31, Saturday, Shikishima, Mikami Village Chief’s house.

   After listening to Maori’s question, Mikami Village Chief said: "The Maori detective must know about the Ryojin, so I won’t say more. One morning three days ago, the Ryojin appeared in the sea near Shikishima."

   "What!" Maori was taken aback.

   Mr. Kinoshita said: "Yes, just like the legendary ghost ship, it suddenly appeared without warning..."

   "You, ghost ship?" Lan's face changed.

   "It seems very interesting." Yuanzi looked at Lan and smiled.

   "It's boring, the ghost can't catch it." Mei Daizi said.

   Mr. Kinoshita continued: "People on the island say that the navy is the cause."

   "Navy?" Maori asked suspiciously.

The village director said: "More than 400 years ago, during Toyotomi Hideyoshi's conquest of the Hojo clan of Odawara in 1590, the Hojo navy was defeated and the remnants were scattered. Toyotomi Hideyoshi issued a reward document. Part of the Hojo navy fled to this small island. , But didn’t want the residents of the island to be fascinated by the bounty, and attacked the injured Hojo navy forces. Finally, the Hojo navy forces were chased into a cave on the side of the island, and they were all killed. ."

Village Chief Mikami said: "Since then, ominous things have happened one after another on this small island. People on the island thought it was the dead souls of the Hojo naval forces, so they settled the gods in that cave, hoping to appease The soul of Hojo navy."

   "This should be superstition, right?" Maori asked.

Mr. Kinoshita said: "Not all. Many people in history have seen the ghosts of the armored navy appear in the forest outside the cave, and people passing by will often hear from the navy cave. , From time to time there are shuddering wailing."

The head of the village said: "Furthermore, in 1991, a university professor specializing in naval forces came to this island with a dozen students to do research. They did not ask the residents of this island beforehand. I went to investigate in the cave of the navy army. However, two or three days later, the villagers on the island discovered that the university professor and his students were missing. We first thought they had left, but then we received Tokyo It was only after the notice sent by the Metropolitan Police Department to find these people that these people were really missing. After the people from the Metropolitan Police Department came to investigate, no abnormal conditions were found."

   "In 1991? Five years have passed since then." Maori said in surprise, "It can be confirmed that they are dead."

   Mr. Kinoshita said: "So now no one on the island dares to approach the cave casually."

   "Well," Mei Daizi smiled, "This is very interesting, let's go find these water ghosts."

   "No, it's boring." Lan and Yuanzi said with some fear.

   Lan said with a pale face: "I absolutely, absolutely will not go."

   Yuanzi said, "I think we should look for gold."

   "That's good," Maori said, "Mikami Village Chief, continue talking about gold."

   "Excuse me." Village Chief Mikami wiped his sweat, "After the Rongshen appeared, I had to be dragged back, but after inspection, there was no gold in it."

   "No?" Maori asked.

"No." said the village chief, "according to the moss on the hull and the degree of weathering and corrosion, we speculate that the Rongshen should be stranded in a sheltered place. In the previous night, there had been a strong wave in the nearby sea. The storm, we speculated that the strong storm caused the nearby sea to surge, causing the Rongshen to float to a cave or cliff, and then stranded there because of the low tide. Now the water level is caused by the strong storm. Soaring, the Long God floated out again."

   Mayor Mikami said: "Although I blocked the news, it can't be long. And there are many small islands nearby, so I thought of using the wisdom of Maori detectives."

   "It's his luck." Conan and Yuanzi murmured together.

   "No, I refuse," Maori said, "I am a detective, how can I do this kind of errand job."

"If your reward is one-tenth of our income, what about it?" Mr. Mikami smiled. "We can get a one-tenth of the discovery bounty, which is about 100 million yen, and there will be An additional 100 million yen bounty from Otomo Metals. In other words..."

   "Twenty to twenty million yen." Maori opened a pair of money eyes with a brush, and took the hand of the head of Mikami Village and said enthusiastically, "Thank you for your care. I will accept this."

   Conan asked, "Hey, hey, since it's stranded, why isn't the gold on it? Could it have been transported away by the accomplices?"

   "That's good." Maori asked, "Mushang Village Chief?"

The village director said: "Because a body was washed up on the island that year, it was identified as a robber on the Rongshen, and no other people and the Rongshen were found. There is only fresh water in the nearby sea. It’s impossible to live on those small islands for a long time, so people in the Metropolitan Police Department thought that the robbers and the Ryoshin ship had sunk into the bottom of the sea, so they gave up the search."

Village Chief Mikami said: “Now we speculate that the place where the Ryoshin is located is a place that can be filled with seawater. The robbers abandoned the ship with gold before the water flooded, but because the space was filled with seawater, it was still He died by drowning, and his body was swept out by the sea, while the gold was still there."

   Mr. Kinoshita said: "Also, since the storm passed, in these years, except for the ferry, no ship other than the island has been here."

   "So that's the case," Maori said, and then asked, "Is this incident unreported?"

   "Yes," the village chief said, "The people at Otomo Metals thought that the disappearance was better than Shen Hai, so the police suppressed this matter."

   Village Chief Mikami said with some embarrassment: "Because there were many treasure hunters, so..."

   Maori interface said: "So in order to make their money, I concealed this matter."

   "Yes, the income of those three months is worth the income of a few years." Mikami said, "We plan to release the news if you are."

   "Don't worry, my detective Kogoro Mouri will definitely help you find this place." Mouri said.

"That's really grateful for us." Village Mayor Mikami smiled, then said, holding up the bottle, "Come, come, come, Maori detective, let's celebrate in advance." He said that the Maori glass was full. On it. ...

   Less than four in the afternoon, Shikishima Convention Hall.

   Conan yawned while looking at the mayor Mikami who was talking on it. The banquet broke up at about 3:30 in the afternoon. After that, the mayor of Mikami brought Maori and his party here. Yamazaki, Meidaizi, Ran, Conan, and Yuanzi were going to go shopping, but Maori was drunk and Ran was really drunk. Feeling relieved, he stayed. In this way, Conan had no choice but to stay, but Yuanzi, Yamazaki, and Meidaizi slid away. They also greeted the mayor of Mikami without preparing dinner for them.

Conan’s yawn was transmitted to Mikami, who was sitting next to him, who was also unconscious. She yawned and said, “Yes, I’ll take you to a fun place.” Then she didn’t wait for Conan to agree to pull Conan up. run.

  Out of the convention hall, Conan found that they were running around the convention hall, and asked helplessly: "Where are we going?"

   "I'll take you to the back of the stage to have a look," Mikami said, "This is a VIP seat for special guests."

   Conan pointed to a building along the way and asked, "What is that?"

"Shikishima Cultural Center." Mikami said, "It is said that the cultural heritage of the island is stored, but they are all old things, like rusted anchors, broken armor, and broken samurai swords. "

   "If there is something good, I won't stay here." Conan muttered.

Maybe it’s close to the relationship. Mikami heard Conan’s words and said, “There is a set of armor and samurai swords that are largely intact and well maintained. I heard that it was left by the leader of the navy. And the pattern, what is it called? I forgot, it is made up of three white and one black triangles anyway."

   Conan said: "That is the family pattern. It should be the three-scale pattern of the Hohokujo family. It is composed of three equilateral triangles. The black triangle is actually empty."

   "Here we are, this is the backstage door." Mikami Ling stopped in front of a door.

   At this time, the door opened and Mikami Ling hurriedly pulled Conan into hiding.

   Conan sighed in his heart, there is nothing to hide.

   A man in his thirties ~www.readwn.com~ with long hair covering half of his face came out of it.

   Conan asked: "Who is he?"

   "He is a lighthouse guard," Mikami said, "I only know that his surname is Hamada, he is a strange person."

   "Strange person?" Conan asked.

   Mikami Ling said: "Because he usually doesn't interact with people on the island, he often goes to the cave that everyone doesn't dare to approach, and doesn't know what to do in it."

  At this time, the captain of the ferry came to meet Hamada, "It's been a long time, Aoki, I will never forget your face."

   Hamada stepped back and said, "I, I don't know what you said, I'm just a lighthouse guard, my name is Hamada."

   "What did you say!" The captain grabbed Hamada by the collar angrily.

   "Didn't I mean you admitted the wrong person?" Hamada struggled, "Let go of me quickly."

"Even if you turn to ashes, I can recognize you," the captain said, "Aoki." He stretched out his hand and stroked the long hair on Hamada's face, and was startled by the burned face of Hamada's hair. .

   Hamada took the opportunity to break free, and then left in a hurry. The captain also left, with a thoughtful look.

   "It's scary." Mikami Ling said with a little fear on her chest, "It turns out there is an injury."

   Conan said: "Because I don't want people to see, so I don't talk to people."

   "Let's go," Mikami said, "That uncool uncle's speech is about to begin."...
