Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 452 Another kind of bad luck...

Under Qin Zhibo's "generous donation", Mao Lilan and Yuan Shanhe Ye both had lottery numbers.

Hattori Heiji also asked about the business at this time, about the disappearance of the door association Saori.

Shimabukuro-kun Hui knew everything, and told a few days ago that Saori Monsie was uneasy because she lost the "Dugong Arrow" drawn last year, and worried about being retaliated by the mermaid.

"I reassured her that nothing bad will happen to her. Four days ago, I asked her to accompany me to the dentist outside the island, and she didn't see anything unusual."

At this time, a voice came faintly from the side of the crowd.

"You are so stupid."

"You say that because you don't believe in your great-grandmother's power at all, Jun Hui."

The person who came was a woman with long hair and waist-length snake face. Qin Zhibo saw that her age was 27 years old, similar to Shimabukuro Junhui, and her name was Ebihara Sumi.

"Sumi." Shimabukuro Junhui was obviously a little surprised by the arrival of this woman.

Ebina Sumi held the snake spirit's chin, and said with great interest: "She really has magic powers, and she has indeed eaten mermaid meat before."

"You also know about that incident, the time when the mermaid corpse appeared three years ago..."

Hearing the key word "mermaid corpse", everyone's expressions turned serious, and Qin Zhibo's eyes became more serious.

"Can you tell me more about this matter?" Qin Zhibo stepped forward and asked.

Just as Ebina Shoumi's eyes widened pretendingly and was about to tell, a man came up behind him and pressed his dark palm on Ebina's shoulder.

"Almost there, Sumi."

"Lu Lang."

The man looked a little dissatisfied, and he raised his head and told everyone, "If you are looking for Saori, you should go to Saori's house to find out the situation, but the premise is that Saori's drunk father is willing to welcome you."

After speaking, the man named Rokuro Fukuyama left with his hands in his pockets, followed by Ebina Sumi.

Qin Zhibo paid attention to the man's age, he was exactly 28 years old, which was about the same age as the several NPCs he met along the way.

Coupled with the fact that these people are calling each other by their first names, it seems likely that they are young tamers.

In this case, Qin Zhibo thought for a while, and Naoko Heijiang, who had a pot head, had promised himself to discuss it in detail at the evening celebration.

At that time, you can find out what the mermaid incident was three years ago.

Mori Kogoro and others made an appointment with Junhui Shimabukuro to help lead the way to Saori's house after the celebration.

Night fell quickly, and tourists and islanders on the island rushed to Shimabukuro Shrine.

As soon as Qin Zhibo arrived at the gate of the shrine, he saw the light of the investigation point shining on the wooden sliding door of the gate of the shrine.

"This is."

Qin Zhibo moved to the front of the crowd, and managed to get within a surveyable distance.

【Topographic Survey√】

[The fireproof asbestos paper is painted with gasoline into special shapes, which are "three", "hundred seven", and "shiba"]

Qin Zhibo: "?"

Looking at the survey description, Qin Zhibo felt that he had probably guessed the winning number tonight.

Hurrying back to Mao Lilan, Yuan Shanhe and Ye, Qin Zhibo subconsciously looked at Mao Lilan's number, and it turned out that it was not "Shiba" but "Sishiyi".

But Qin Zhibo clearly remembered that he had seen the "Shiba" card, so he quickly looked at the cards in Yuan Shan and Ye's hands.

It really is "Shiba".

It turned out that my 35 lucky points were drawn!

Qin Zhibo felt a little unbelievable, but now that the number plate had been given to Yuan Shan and Ye, it was impossible for him to get it back.

I finally won a lottery once, but gave up the chance to others. To some extent, this is also a kind of bad luck.
Now, Qin Zhibo could only stand beside Yuan Shan and Ye, and congratulate him lightly.

"congratulation."

Unknown Yuan Shanhe Ye: "?"

Before the gasoline evaporated completely, the wooden sliding door slowly opened to both sides, and a short old lady with heavy makeup was sitting on the futon.

Seeing this image of the old woman, two of the four detectives felt disappointed at the same time, and complained secretly in their hearts.

Mori Kogoro: This, so small.
Hattori Heiji: Isn't this an old woman with heavy makeup?

Qin Zhibo thinks it's nothing. It's normal for people to shrink when they get older, unlike someone who shrinks before they reach their age.
Thinking in his heart, Qin Zhibo glanced at Conan standing in front of him.

Turning her gaze back to Longevity Po, she had already lit the paper window on the wooden sliding door with the long fire stick in her hand.

The tongues of fire burned in a specific trajectory on the asbestos paper of the three paper windows, leaving behind three flame characters shining brightly in the dim environment.

As expected, it was "three", "hundred seven", and "ten eight". To Qin Zhibo, there was no surprise at all.

But for those who were present with these three number plates, it was different.

"No, my God! I really hit it!"

Qin Zhibo followed the voice and found that the one who said he had won the lottery was Ebina Sumi whom he met during the day.

The second winner didn't say anything here, and Qin Zhibo didn't know who it was.

And the third winner was Yuan Shanhe Ye who finally realized it with an expression of disbelief.

"Xiao, Xiaolan, I've won!"

"Heiji! I really hit it!"

Toyama and Ye were full of surprises, while Conan and Hattori Heiji standing beside them were full of shock.

That guy Qin Zhibo made congratulations to Ye Dao in advance, but she really got hit!

How did he see it in advance!

Before the two of them had an answer in their minds, Junhui Shimabukuro in the gate announced that the "Dugong Arrow" would be officially awarded in an hour, and everyone had to move to the mermaid waterfall on the island first.

On the way to the Mermaid Waterfall, Hattori Heiji and Conan made countless assumptions about why Qin Zhibo knew the answer in advance, including reasoning assumptions, advance investigations to obtain insider information assumptions, and random guessing assumptions
But just when the two were about to send a representative Hattori Heiji to ask what was going on, they found that Qin Zhibo did not go with them.

At this time, Qin Zhibo was heading towards the waterfall side by side with Kuroe Naoko who met at the souvenir shop during the day.

"You mean the mermaid incident three years ago."

"Actually, that incident was also a sensation at the time. A fire broke out in the warehouse of the Shimabukuro Shrine. After the fire was extinguished, the body of the mermaid was found under a collapsed beam."

Qin Zhibo frowned slightly, "Mermaid corpse?"

"Well," Naoko Heijiang nodded firmly, "That is indeed the corpse of the mermaid, because if the beam was smashed down the middle, the foot bones would normally remain, but that corpse was smashed to pieces."

"What could it be if it wasn't a mermaid?"

"And it is said that the mermaid is now buried there."

Saying that, Naoko Heijiang raised her finger to a dark forest above Mermaid Waterfall.

But Qin Zhibo didn't look at the deep forest, but instinctively focused his eyes on the only luminous point in the middle of the waterfall.

That's the light of the investigation point!
