Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

"call……"

Yukiko took a deep breath and began to ponder what her fake self had said.

Her own most powerful weapon.

After thinking about it...

She touched her face, then looked down at her figure, and finally realized what her most powerful weapon was.

Since she's already done it once, she wouldn't mind doing it a second or third time.

if only……

If I can kill Shiraishi Osamu, then everything will be worth it.

Chapter 0142: Junhui Leaves

that's it.

The Phantom Thief Kid did not appear all night.

The Sallybeth also successfully arrived at East Cherry Port.

However, when Shiraishi returned to the third floor of No. 2, 5-chome 39, the sky was already slightly bright, and the sunrise was visible on the distant horizon.

But when he opened his door, he found that the woman who usually got up at this time to make breakfast was not there.

"Junhui!"

"are u there?"

He called out as he went inside, but no one answered after a few more calls. Then he noticed a note on the table, went over to read it…

"Xiu, I need to go back to my hometown."

"It won't be long, I'll be back in a couple of days. There's a shrine at home, and I need to go back to organize a festival, so don't worry." Shiraishi Xiu's expression changed instantly.

He knew it was coming, and it did.

The incident on Mermaid Island is about Kimie Shimabukuro seeking revenge for her deceased mother.

This part of the plot is one that he remembers relatively clearly even after not watching Detective Conan for many years.

"call……"

Shiraishi Osamu took a deep breath, took out his phone, and immediately booked a ferry ticket to Mermaid Island.

What made him look very unhappy was that there were only two ferry tickets to that island per day.

They left at 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. respectively, which explains why Kimie Shimabukuro left before dawn.

However, Shiraishi Osamu didn't delay. Afternoon is afternoon. As long as they can get through tonight, there's still hope for salvage.

He also thought of a reward he had received last time, which was an artificial human machine.

However, after thinking about it, he shook his head. He didn't want Shimabukuro Kimie to live in darkness forever, so he had to find a way for her to survive.

But then he thought of making a phone call, but he couldn't say anything about it, since the other person was going to take revenge, and he had no right to interfere.

at this time……

The second floor downstairs.

The room was empty, the lights were off, and it was still a little dark.

A woman lay languidly on the sofa, her long legs slightly crossed, a wine glass in her hand, which she gently swirled as she spoke in a seductive voice:

Absinthe...

"Little brother, we're just waiting for you to taste it."

"I hope...you won't let me down..."

at the same time

At Mihana Station, a male and a female high school student walked out.

The boy had slightly dark skin, wore his hat backwards, and had a very interested expression on his face.

The girl pouted, looking unhappy, but then seemed to remember something, and her eyes held a hint of anticipation.

I waited for a while.

The two got into a taxi and headed towards 5-chome.

for a long time……

The girl in the car finally couldn't help but speak up: "Heiji, are you sure it's okay for you to come so early? How about we go shopping first?"

Heiji Hattori chuckled, folded his hands behind his head, and lay back on the back seat, saying leisurely, "Kazuha, I need to see someone, and I also want to have another match with that Officer Shiraishi. I didn't know he was a policeman when I ran into him at the ski resort last time. I have to say, the police in Higashi Sakura are quite capable."

Kazuha pouted and said, "Xiu wouldn't be like you. He's a real policeman, serving the people, not joking about things like this."

When Hattori Heiji heard his childhood friend address him so intimately, his already dark face darkened even more.

But then he thought of another person, Shinichi Kudo, who had recently become quite famous alongside him in the newspapers.

Moreover, they had met at the ski resort before and exchanged phone numbers. Today, he wanted to see him, so after thinking about it, he dialed his number.

Before Hattori Heiji could speak, a child's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hello, this is the Kudo residence. May I ask how I can help you?"

"Uh……"

Hattori Heiji felt a little flustered when he heard the child's voice, and after a pause, he spoke:

"Um, I wanted to ask, is Shinichi Kudo home?"

silence

The other side immediately fell silent.

After a long while, just as Hattori Heiji was about to lose patience, the child's voice rang out again:

"May I ask who you are? What do you need Shinichi-nii-san for?"

"Uh... just tell him that Hattori Heiji, whom you met last time, came to see him and wants to talk to him about something that is related to him."

Silence again.

After waiting a while, Shinichi Kudo's puzzled voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Oh, it's you, Hattori! Why did you call me?"

"Of course I have something to discuss. I've arrived in Higashi-Sakura Beika Town. Let's meet up!"

"Uh... I've been busy lately, so I might not have much time."

Shinichi Kudo refused.

He looked down at his elementary school-aged body and couldn't help but twitch his lips. At the same time, he felt even more disgusted with the Black Organization.

Murder is a trivial matter, but the other party turned him into a child. It's outrageous. If he had another chance, he would have called the police immediately and wouldn't have followed them.

Just as he was inwardly complaining, Hattori Heiji's teasing voice came over:

"You'll definitely be interested in this, and it's a request. The other party specifically asked for you, me, and an uncle named Kogoro Mouri. So, do you want to know what it is?"

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Conan became interested and unconsciously swung his short legs while sitting on the sofa, waiting for Hattori Heiji to speak.

"Hehehe..." Hattori Heiji chuckled sinisterly, looking out at the receding city, and said with a hint of mockery, "It's simple if you want to know. Just come out and meet me, agree to this request, and I'll tell you the rest in detail."

"Then I'd rather not know."

"I don't believe it. We've both been invited. Things can't be that simple."

"Anyway, I'd rather not."

"you sure?"

"Uh... fine, you win. So, where should we meet?"

"Let me think... Let's meet at that Uncle Kogoro Mouri's place. We should let him know anyway."

"OK.".

Chapter 0143: A Woman Who's Going All Out

in the afternoon.

On the passenger ship bound for Mermaid Island.

Osamu Shiraishi, Heiji Hattori, Conan, Kogoro Mouri, Yukiko, Ran, Kazuha...

This was another large group of acquaintances, all looking at the small island in the distance.

Osamu Shiraishi is very annoyed and worried about Kimie Shimabukuro. It's been almost a whole day, and he just hopes that nothing irreversible will happen.

on the deck.

Looking up at the dark sky, Kogoro Mouri said while smoking, "Is it getting dark, or is it going to rain? It doesn't look sunny at all. By the way, Blackie, you should thank me properly. Just because I came along doesn't mean I didn't have anything else to do."

Hattori Heiji's lips twitched incessantly, especially the word "black kid," which almost made him swear.

He struggled to suppress his emotions and forced a stiff smile:

"Uncle, it doesn't matter anyway, and I'll pay for the trip, so don't worry."

"So, where did you say you wanted to go?"

"I heard it's an island called the Fishman's Island, and it's quite famous. I also heard that there's an immortal old woman there who makes a living by eating mermaid flesh."

Kogoro Mouri took two deep drags on his cigarette, revealing his signature deadpan expression. He didn't believe a word of this nonsense and didn't want to bother with it.

He ignored it...

The two girls' eyes lit up.

Xiao Lan quickly replied, "I've heard about that too. It seems to have happened about three years ago, about an old lady who became a hot topic because of her immortality."

Kazuha laughed and said, "That's right. I came here to see if there is any way to live forever. I wish I could stay young forever."

"Hehe..." Conan couldn't help but tremble at the corner of his mouth as he listened to these absurd words.

Yukiko looked at Shiraishi Osamu, her eyes flickering, and she thought of what the woman who was pretending to be her had said on the ship yesterday.
