Chapter 13 Xiaolan, my Xiaolan!

The evening breeze on the island was strong and quite cool, but Xia Chuan, the new dad, was considerate enough to wrap Anya in a thick scarf before going out.

As for Conan, haha, not to mention that he is actually seventeen years old, even if he is really a first-grade kid, he is not from our family.

"Conan, what are you doing at the lookout so late at night?"

"Ania knows!"

Xia Chuan smiled and said, "Then let Aniya speak."

"We met a strange uncle at the back door of the conference hall this afternoon, and the other one was the rude uncle in the afternoon." Then, Anya spoke incoherently for a long time until Conan couldn't help but interrupt, and then she finished the story.

"In other words, Conan suspects that the watchtower guard named Hamada Koji is the murderer of Uncle Mori?"

Conan nodded vigorously. This was such a brilliant summary.

The daughter is nothing like her father.

"In fact, when I was next to the Dragon God this morning, I also noticed someone peeking in. It seems to be this person."

"It turns out that brother Xiachuan also discovered it." After hearing what Xiachuan said, Conan became more confident in his ideas.

However, the next moment.

"Hey, Aniya, what are you doing?"

Conan touched his calf and looked at Anya with half a blink. Why did she keep kicking him for no reason? She was about to get bruises.

"You are the same age as Anya, so you have to call Xiachuan uncle, right, father?"

Xia Chuan smiled and touched the two children's hair without saying anything.

Conan said: "By the way, I also heard from Uncle Kinoshita that this Hamada Koji is not from the island, and he came to the island after the wreck of the Dragon God."

"Well, it seems that he is indeed a strong suspect. Even if this case has nothing to do with him, the incident on the Dragon God should be related to him."

Arrived.

The three of them looked up at the watchtower.

The watchtower is a lighthouse. At this time, the light is very bright, and the light sweeps back and forth across the sea level like a laser.

"It seems like there's no one there?"

Anya flashed back and forth inside the watchtower, but didn't see a single figure.

"Maybe someone else has been here." Xia Chuan half squatted down and looked at the miscellaneous items that were scattered all over the place in front of him.

The person who came seemed to be looking for something.

"There's gasoline here!" Aniya seemed to have discovered a new world. She even leaned forward to smell it, and then showed an intoxicated smile (╯▽╰) It smells so good~~

"It seems that the incident in the afternoon was indeed done by Koji Hamada. Conan's guess was correct."

"Well, there are no cars or motorcycles here, and the gasoline can only be used to assassinate my uncle."

While I was thinking, the door behind me was slowly pushed open.

"Ah! What are you doing!?"

Hearing the sound coming from the door, Xia Chuan did not look up.

It was Mikami Suzu. This guy had been following her since the entrance of the B&B. She was just a seven-year-old girl, so Xia Chuan ignored her.

The sound just now was obviously intentional, trying to make it look like she had just arrived, so Xia Chuan didn't point it out.

Anya flashed to Mikami Suzu's side without any fear.

Like Xia Chuan, she had heard the other person's thoughts a long time ago and was not surprised at her appearance.

Conan staggered with fright, as if he had been caught trespassing, and quickly explained, "No, I...we came to the observation tower to see the scenery."

"Go upstairs to see the scenery. You're still rummaging through other people's things. Run away while Mr. Hamada is away. If he sees you, you're dead!"

After hearing this, Anya was not afraid. She even raised her head, like a rooster crowing in the early morning, with a proud look on her face.

My father is a super spy, there is no way he can be defeated by a watchtower guard.

"My father is so awesome, he's not afraid at all!"

"Okay, stop bragging and go up and take a look."

Xia Chuan found the stairs and motioned for several people to follow him.

Even in the dark, the child still needs to be kept by his side.

Oh my God, he felt like he was getting better and better at raising children.

The great spy emperor, Huang Hun, is now...

The wind was a bit strong at the lookout tower, so Xiachuan helped Anya tie her scarf to prevent it from being blown away.

Conan and Mikami Suzu were looking at the only object on the observation deck.

A telescope.

However, this telescope is not facing the sea surface, but rather the deep part of the island.

"It's fixed."

Seeing Conan trying hard to break it open, Xiachuan spoke up to remind him.

"Oh."

Conan responded unhappily, he must know about this kind of thing, so he just wanted to give it a try, maybe?

That's what a detective is like, he needs to be able to do things with his hands.

"Father, I want to see the sea! I want a hug."

Taking advantage of the situation, Xia Chuan picked up Anya and walked to the side of the telescope. When he got closer, he could clearly see three words written on the support rod of the telescope: Dragon God.

It seems that this guard, Koji Hamada, is indeed related to the Ryujin seven years ago.

Goro Kinoshita had said before that no items related to the Ryujin were found, so this telescope is very telling.

Combined with the previous clues, this Hamada was related to the fall of the Ryujin that year, and he was also an insider, or at least knew where the Ryujin was.

"Aniya, your father is so nice, can you pick me up and let me see too, Uncle Xiachuan?"

"No! This is Anya's father."

Anya was like a puppy guarding its food, with her eyes narrowed and she held Xiachuan's hands tightly.

"Humph! Aniya is not cute at all. I was planning to take you to eat the specialties of Shikishima tomorrow, but now I've changed my mind."

!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

"Okay, I'll let you hold me with one hand, but you can only hold me for five minutes."

The two children didn't take Natsukawa seriously at all and started making a fuss among themselves. Mikami Suzu even took matters into her own hands and climbed down Natsukawa's trouser legs into his hands.

Are all children nowadays koalas?

"Conan, did you get anything?"

This is really uncomfortable!

Conan obviously forgot his identity again at this time. His eyes were a little serious. He pointed to the depths of the island and asked Mikami Suzu, "What is that place?"

Mikami Suzu pressed hard on Natsukawa's shoulders, trying to raise herself up. After looking for a long time, she answered, "It should be the Navy Cave!"

"Sure enough, it's exactly what I expected. When I heard Uncle Kinoshita talk about the Navy Cave at the Naval Archives, I had some doubts. It seems that this should be where the Dragon God has been hiding for all these years."

"But...but, there are navy ghosts there. Five years ago, some scholars came here to do research. They all entered the navy cave, but they must have angered the navy ghosts and were all beheaded without exception."

"Are they all dead?" Xia Chuan was a little surprised that someone had actually died.

Conan and Ania didn't seem surprised, and it seemed that they had heard about it before.

"Did you call the police?"

Mikami Suzu shook her head. "I heard it from my father. It was said that the economy of Shikishima was already very bad at that time. If this matter were to spread, tourism in Shikishima would definitely be affected."

Xia Chuan nodded, but it was still a little strange. Five people died, but there was not even a ripple or a wave. How scientific!

Won’t the families of the five deceased scholars come looking for us?

"Uncle Xiachuan!"

Conan's meaning is very clear, he wants to go to the Naval Cave, but don't you see what time it is? Children should cover themselves with quilts and start to sleep healthily at this time!

At least Anya should be asleep by now.

"Let's go back first, and go to the Navy Cave tomorrow." Seeing that Conan was still a little hesitant, Xia Chuan said, "Don't worry, there has been no problem for so many years, so one night is not a big deal."

"Also, if Hamada is the murderer, where would he go if he is not here at this time?"

Oops!

Conan immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

If Hamada's goal was to stop his uncle from continuing the investigation, and he failed to do so in the afternoon, now that he is not in the watchtower he is probably going to cause trouble for his uncle.

"Xiao Lan, my Xiao Lan!"

Conan was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, running at a rapid pace.

Xia Chuan seriously suspected that this little brat had turned on a pair of shoes that enhanced his leg strength.

But he couldn't walk fast anymore, because there were two extra accessories on his left and right hands, and it was a bit unsmooth for him to walk.

"Come down, we're not even on the lookout anymore."

"profound."

The two little ones came down reluctantly. Mikami Suzu and Anya made an appointment to meet tomorrow and then disappeared. None of them took Conan's worries to heart.

Anya and Mikami Suzu didn’t understand. They were just kids and couldn’t think that much.

Xia Chuan felt there was no need to worry.

A karate master is invincible in the world, and a judo master is invincible in the police academy. What is there to worry about? Shouldn't Hamada be the one who should be worried?

I don’t know if I will lose any limbs.

That shouldn’t be the case. After all, Uncle Maori was very measured in his actions.

But Xiaolan is not sure. If Hamada uses intimidation...

Anya: "(?_?)"

Is Xiaolan so scary? And Uncle Maori, who is obviously out of tune, is actually a judo master.

It seems I have to be careful with Conan, he might practice Jeet Kune Do.

Chapter 14 This guy is not a detective

Shikishima Bed and Breakfast.

Kogoro Mouri was lying on the floor with a peaceful expression, muttering the name of a star he had been thinking about.

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind him.

Moonlight streamed into the room through the window, outlining the outline of a suit of armor.

If Xiachuan were here, he would definitely be able to recognize it at a glance. This is the set of armor he saw in the Naval Archives during the day.

Kogoro Mouri didn't feel anything at all and was still sleeping soundly.

The samurai sword in the armor's hand slowly raised up...

"Uncle Maori!"

Conan's voice arrived before he did.

"what?"

The clear cry of the child was extremely harsh in the B&B. Kogoro Mori was woken up and turned over in annoyance.

Then he let out a cry and bounced out of the quilt.
