Ke Xue: I picked up a bottle of sherry at the beginning.

Bai Quanyi asked curiously: "Hattori-kun, what are you and Conan talking about so enthusiastically?"

Hattori Heiji said: "Conan and I are discussing the case. Can you imagine? Conan is just a little kid, but he knows so much. I benefited a lot from communicating with him!"

Baiquanyi's forehead was sweating: "Really? Why don't you just live with Conan, Hattori-kun?"

Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up and he said, "Good idea!"

Then, Hattori Heiji shook his head again: "No, no... I'm hanging out with an elementary school kid every day. If anyone at school finds out, I'll be socially ruined!"

Toyama Kazuha narrowed his eyes and said, "Heiji, so you know that liking little boys will lead to death."

Hattori Heiji said angrily: "What do you mean by like or dislike? Conan and I are just friends, why are you jealous?"

"Who's jealous of you, Heiji?" Toyama Kazuha retorted.

Hattori Shizuka looked helpless. Her son was too slow-witted and had a complete blockhead.

"Officer White!"

"Ok?"

After separating from Maori Kogoro and Conan, Shirai Izumi hadn't taken a few steps off the boat when Shimabukuro Kimie's voice reached him...

She was wearing a shrine maiden's outfit and a pair of wooden clogs.

She had been waiting for Shimabukuro Kimie at the port in advance and waved in the direction of Baibai Quanyi.

"Officer Bai, there are so many people here this time."

"Ah! It's Miss Shimabukuro. You look so cute in your shrine maiden costume." Shiraizumi Mashi replied.

Everyone was curious about how Baiquan Yi knew the shrine maiden on the island in advance.

"Let me introduce you. This is Shimabukuro Kimie, the shrine maiden from the American Island."

Shimabukuro Kimie smiled generously at everyone and said, "If you don't mind, you can live in my shrine?"

Hattori Heiji leaned over and asked, "Oh—you must have contacted Shiraizumi Masaru in advance to host us. But, is there enough room for so many of us?"

Shimabukuro Kimie smiled softly and said, "There's room for you."

The huge shrine is now home to only Shimabukuro Kimie, and it can easily accommodate them all.

Half an hour later, American Island, American Shrine.

Shiraizumi Masushi and Hattori Heiji live in the same room.

Shizuka Hattori, Kazuha Toyama, and Ai live in the same room.

After tidying up the room, Hattori Heiji approached Shiraizumi Masu and watched him flipping through the roster in his hand: "What is this, Shiraizumi Masu?"

"A great man who once came to this island to participate in the Dugong Festival."

"Former prime ministers, senior cabinet officials, members of parliament and various celebrities."

Bai Quanyi replied, "Take a picture of each page with your camera every time you turn it."

"Hey, hey—is it okay to just rummage through other people's things like that?"

"It's okay, just looking."

Xiao Ai from next door came over and said, "Brother, there is a hot spring in the shrine. Do you want to take a bath?"

Hattori Heiji said: "Indeed, it seems that waiting for the Dugong Festival to start and then taking a hot spring bath is a good choice. What do you think, Shiraizumi Masu?"

Baiquanyi asked, "Mixed bathing?"

Xiao Ai said: "Brother Shirou, of course it's not mixed bathing, what are you thinking!"

Hattori Heiji said, "Hey, hey... Shiro-kun, you don't want to take a hot spring bath with my mom and my childhood friend, do you?"

Bai Quanyi said: "Is it not possible?"

Hattori Heiji said: "Of course not! There are differences between men and women, don't you know that?"

Shiraizumi nodded and said, "Hattori-kun, you are right, there are differences between men and women."

262. Kazuha's Delusion

Shiraizumi Masushi and Hattori Heiji are enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot springs at the shrine. It's a rare tranquility on the tourist-filled American Island.

"The hot springs here are really nice, Bai Jun, you are really good at arrangements." Hattori Heiji squinted his eyes and enjoyed the hot springs here.

"Actually, I was quite surprised too." Bai Quanyi said with a smile.

The women's bath next door.

Ikenami Shizuka showed off her magnificent curves that both Ai and Toyama Kazuha envied.

"Aunt Jinghua, you have a great figure..." Even a girl like He Ye would blush at her figure. He Ye looked at her own figure, then at Jinghua's. The gap was too big, so big that it would never be bridged.

"It's so big..." Xiao Ai was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. She usually took a bath with her brother or sister. Now she realized that Ikenami Shizuka was the biggest girl she had ever seen. "No wonder Xiaojing couldn't finish it every day and needed her brother to help."

"It's not good to be too big. I used to have to bind my breasts... But since I gave birth to Xiaojing..."

　28 After giving birth to Shizuka Ikenami, and after using a bra binder, her breasts swelled to an extremely exaggerated size. Even a woman with a Yamato Nadeshiko personality felt a little embarrassed to go out.

Yuanshan Heye suddenly remembered a question she had been wanting to ask Jinghua: "Aunt Jinghua, why did you stay in Tokyo all this time and not bring your daughter Xiaojing back to Osaka with you?"

Ikenami Shizuka said somewhat embarrassedly: "I'm doing well in Tokyo now, and I probably won't go back to Osaka..."

Yuanshan Heye said: "Aunt Jinghua, I know, you must be with Bai Jun, right?"

Ikenami Shizuka knew that she couldn't hide it from Toyama Kazuha, so she nodded in agreement. Not everyone is as stupid as Hattori Heiji.

Toyama Kazuha said, "Does Uncle Heizo know?"

Ikenami Shizuka said, "He knows."

Yuanshan Heye was even more surprised: "Won't Uncle Heizo be angry?"

Ikenami Shizuka sighed: "Heizo... is a good man."

"Good guy?"

Yuanshan Heye took a deep breath, thinking that good people deserve to be cuckolded.

Xiao Ai interrupted and said, "Yes. My brother is a big HENTAI, he likes other people's wives! Aunt Jinghua's daughter is actually my brother's child."

Toyama and Ye's eyes widened: "W-what!"

Ikebo Jinghua said: "He Ye, you have to be careful too. Don't let Bai Quanyi target you. He is a good person in every way, except..."

Ikenami Jinghua shook her head. She was actually very dissatisfied with some of Baiquanyi's actions, but at this point, she could only choose to forgive him, tolerate him, and accept him...

Hearing what Ikenami Jinghua said, Yuanshan and Ye trembled.

"Ikenami Shizuka and I were both taken away by Shira-kun, and then Heiji and Uncle Heizo were both cuckolded. How pitiful!"

In reality, Heizo is already divorced, so he wasn't cheated on. As for Heiji, he and Kazuha had nothing in common, so even if Kazuha and Shiraizumi Masu were together, Heiji wouldn't have been cheated on. It hadn't even started yet, so how could he have been cheated on?

Everything is just a delusion in Yuanshan and Ye's mind.

……

"Ah!"

After putting on his clothes and walking out of the locker room, Hattori Heiji felt a slight itch on the tip of his nose and suddenly sneezed.

"You feel weak after just soaking in a hot spring? You're not in good health, young man."

Shiraizumi Mashi looked at Hattori Heiji's black skin and smiled. In Detective Conan, apart from the pure black people, Hattori Heiji is the darkest one. You can tell at a glance that he is a mixed race of black and yellow.

As for the nonsense about inheriting it from my grandfather, it is as ridiculous as saying that I gave birth to a black child because I ate too much soy sauce.

At this time, Ikenami Shizuka, Toyama Kazuha, and Ai also came out of the women's locker room.

Toyama and Ye said, "The Dugong Festival is about to begin. Should we set off now?"

Hattori Heizo said, "But, I still have to go find Miss Menxie?"

Baiquanyi said, "Then let's separate first. Then we'll meet at the Dugong Festival."

As they left the shrine, they ran into the shrine maiden, Shimabukuro Kimie.

"Ms. Shimabukuro?"

Shimabukuro Kimie, dressed in a red and white miko costume, showed the number plates in her hand and said, "I have two extra number plates, so I thought I'd give them to you."

"How... much?"

"Someone canceled their reservation, so two number plates became vacant," Shimabukuro Kimie explained with a smile.

Shiraizumi Masaru ended up with two number plates, one for Ikenami Shizuka and one for Toyama Kazuha.

Little Aidu 853 pouted: "Brother, why don't you give it to me."

Bai Quanyi said: "Xiao Ai, you are still young, you should give way to adults."

"what the hell!"

Ikenami Shizuka said, "Xiao Ai, I'll give mine to you."

Seeing this, Yuanshan Heye said, "Xiao Ai, I'll give you mine."

Xiao Ai crossed her arms over her shoulders and snorted, "If it's not given by my brother, I don't want it!"

At this time, Shiraizumi Masu came to Shimabukuro Kimie and asked, "How is the task I asked you to do going?"

Shimabukuro Kimie said: "I have discussed this with the elders on the island, and they have promised to be witnesses. I also asked them to recreate the scene in the warehouse where my mother was burned alive three years ago."

Shiraizumi Mashi said, "Well... let's use Menkyo Saori as a breakthrough point."

"Given Monkyou Saori's personality, she will definitely admit everything."

"Also, I hope this Dugong Festival is the last one."

"Yes, this is the last Dugong Festival."

Shimabukuro Kimie had a determined look on her face. The longevity woman show, which only fooled tourists, should be retired.

263. Conan is loved by Kogoro and Heiji

"Twenty-four? It's... me?"

At the shrine shrouded in darkness, the representative of the mermaid legend on the American island, 'Longevity Lady' Shimabukuro Mikoto, held up torches and lit up the numbers on both sides of the gate under the gaze of all the tourists who had purchased numbered tickets.

Twenty-four, eighteen, seventeen.

At the foot of the shrine steps, Ikenami Shizuka, holding the number 24, looked at the blazing number on the shrine gate, and was so surprised that she covered her mouth with her hands.

Xiao Ai: "Really!"

Yuanshan Heye: "Aunt Jinghua, you are so lucky!"

Ai and Toyama Kazuha were both happy for Ikenami Shizuka.

"Now, please move to the Mermaid Falls. The Dugong Arrow will be awarded in one hour."

After changing her clothes inside the shrine, Shimabukuro Kimie appeared in front of everyone in a red and white shrine maiden costume. The holy moonlight and the mist after the fire was extinguished complemented each other, making her look even more sacred.

"Brother Hattori, there shouldn't be anything shady here, right?" Edogawa Conan appeared in front of Hattori Heiji with his hands behind his head.

"I don't know either. Maybe my mom is lucky." Hattori Heiji lowered his head and saw Edogawa Conan appeared beside him at some point. "Hey, it's Conan. Why are you alone? Where's Detective Mori?"

"Detective Maori got drunk. Without Sister Xiaolan watching him, he secretly went to drink the island's specialty mermaid wine. Now he is sleeping soundly in his room."

"Have you found out why Miss Menxie suddenly wrote you that letter?"

"Ah, it was simply because she discovered that the dugong arrow she had obtained at the Dugong Festival a year ago was missing. She panicked and feared revenge from the mermaids, so she wrote me that letter asking for help."

Hattori Heiji, who has never been interested in mermaid legends, was also speechless.

I thought there really was a murder case that made him rush all the way from Osaka, but it turned out that he was asked to investigate a mermaid that didn't even exist.

"Well, I'm glad you're okay."

"Just treat it as a trip to experience the customs and culture of the American island."

Conan, who was playing with the mermaid bracelet, seemed very open-minded.

Hattori Heiji looked at it suspiciously: "What is this?"

"A bracelet I bought at a specialty store on the island."
