Reasoning, and then being blasted by the neighboring idol

One of the policemen was older, a bald man in his forties.

The other one was younger, probably in his twenties.

"Excuse me, are you in any trouble?"

After discovering that it was a tourist from out of town, the two policemen quickly stood up.

"It's like this." Miura Gensuke took out a photo of Mizumiya Shizuku: "This girl is our friend."

"Ah...this matter..." The two policemen looked at each other and said, "Actually, we are also working hard to investigate."

"But I really can't find any clues."

"The other police officers who came here to investigate a few days ago have already withdrawn."

"But we will keep trying."

Miura Gensuke showed little interest in these pleasantries. "I want to know if anyone has gone missing on Samejima before?"

"Ah, you can't look up files like this."

Miura Gensuke pointed to the camera on his chest and said, "You don't want to be fined and have to file a complaint online, do you, Miss Police?"

"Just show us the file, and we won't make things difficult for you."

"It would be different if you didn't help us find our friends."

At this time, the old policeman pulled the female policeman aside.

"Daughter, this is the person who came with the eldest lady."

"You mean the young lady who came here with a private jet and a yacht!"

"Yeah, we'd better cooperate. I heard that the blonde girl is the daughter of Kasugaen Group..."

"And I don't think this guy has any bad intentions. He's just desperate to find the missing girl. Maybe he can find some clues?"

"The case has been solved, and we have contributed to it. And Same Island's reputation can be cleared."

The female police officer was still a little hesitant: "But if I show them the answers, some of them don't comply with the regulations."

"Silly daughter, I'm the boss here. If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, who can take care of this remote island?"

After discussing, the two of them quickly took out the files.

There aren't many cases on Shark Island, but this is a 50-year-long case, so it's a thick stack.

Miura Gensuke and Tsukimiya Sakurano looked through it carefully.

Most of the cases were shipwrecks or children drowning, with some small scattered cases.

After browsing for a few hours, it was already dusk.

Miura Gensuke rubbed his eyes. "In the past 50 years, a total of nine girls have disappeared, but the disappearances were far apart, not a frequent occurrence."

"Oh, I understand how you feel, but missing persons are inevitable," the old police officer quickly explained. "Some people simply disappear without saying goodbye and never contact their families again."

"This kind of thing is also considered a missing person case."

Miura Gensuke certainly knew about this.

There are far more missing persons cases in Tokyo than on this island.

Nine people missing in 50 years is really not something to be concerned about.

However, these missing persons have something in common: they are all around junior high or high school age, and they are all girls.

This is very strange.

Miura Gensuke recorded and analyzed the connections.

Tsukimiya Sakurano asked about the shrine: "Miss Police Officer, may I ask why there are no clergy at the Water Shrine?"

"Well..." The policewoman looked at her father and said, "Yes, why? I haven't seen anyone in the shrine since I was a child."

“And no one offered sacrifices.”

The old policeman seemed to remember something and silently took off his police hat: "I also heard from my mother that there was a shrine maiden in the Water God Temple a long time ago."

"but……"

"The witch was murdered..."

"Murder?" Miura Gensuke was shocked: "Who would attack a miko?"

The status of a shrine maiden should be very high on such a remote island.

"They were people on a fishing boat..." The old policeman lowered his head: "To be precise... it was a whaling boat."

"That witch loved whales and said they were messengers of the water god. So she repeatedly warned them not to hunt whales and to just catch ordinary fish."

"But no one listened to her."

"Same Island used to be a very poor place. Sometimes we didn't even have enough food."

"The social atmosphere is naturally very different from what it is now."

Miura Gensuke nodded.

When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace.

The quality of human beings in modern society is definitely far superior to that of the past.

"During one voyage, the whaling ship encountered a storm and suffered heavy losses, and several crew members died."

"The captain believed the witch was cursing them, so he led the crew to kill the witch and threw the body into the sea..."

"This is a very shameful past... I hope you won't tell anyone..."

"And, to be honest, I really don't know if this story is true or not."

"Because my mother also heard it from the elderly."

“Who knows if it was 100 or 200 years ago.”

Tsukimiya Sakurano sighed softly.

There would be no shrine maidens in the Water God Temple for no reason. This story is most likely true.

After leaving the police station, Tsukimiya Sakurano and Miura Gensuke discussed the matter of the shrine maiden.

"Brother... is it possible that the miko is not dead?"

"But I turned into a mermaid..."

"Maybe it was because of her that Mizumiya Shizuku turned into a mermaid."

"Hmm... this is probably the origin of the anomaly on Samejima." Miura Gensuke looked at the lighthouse at the end of the island.

Attack ships, attack planes.

Abduct the girl from the island.

It's obvious that the mermaid is taking revenge on Samejima.

"Sister, please take them away first." Miura Gensuke suddenly felt a little worried that something more serious would happen.

"No..." He turned and denied himself: "Neither the plane nor the ship is safe now."

"You can't leave until you've resolved the issue."

As he was speaking, a strong gust of wind blew across his face.

On the sea not far away, crisscrossing lightning appeared.

The sky turned gloomy almost instantly.

The storm is coming.

Chapter 263: Mermaid Song

The two had just run back to the holiday home when heavy raindrops hit the door.

The rainstorm swallowed up the beautiful island in a blink of an eye, as if it was going to completely submerge it in the ocean.

"Gensuke, what's wrong?" Hoshizaki Sayo hugged him worriedly, "Why do you look so troubled?"

"It could be dangerous tonight." Miura Gensuke stared at the ocean in the rain.

Because of the storm, the sea was no longer calm, but completely raging.

The strong wind caused the coconut trees to bend a lot, and the long leaves hit each other and fell off, then drifted away with the wind and disappeared from sight.

The surging waves gradually eroded the beach, pulling everything they could grab into the sea.

But the most terrifying thing is the sea itself.

In this dark world, only a few flashes of lightning can occasionally illuminate a corner of the boundless ocean.

The oceans that occupy 70% of the planet and the more than ant-like humans have such a huge disparity in power that it makes people feel a little desperate.

Because this sea is no longer the ocean in common sense, but a tool of revenge controlled by mermaids.

"Brother, our connection with the outside world has been cut off..." Tsukimiya Sakurano put down her phone, which had lost signal. "Transportation is absolutely unusable at this moment."

"That is to say..."

“We are an island now.”

Gensuke Miura knew that he would not be able to sleep tonight, but he was worried about others if he went out alone.

At the moment, several people who were on vacation together were gathered around the sofa.

Only Feilu was still eating snacks as if nothing had happened.

"There's singing..." Asano Mio blinked gently.

As an idol, she is very sensitive to music.

"Is there singing?" Miura Gensuke patted Feilu's shoulder and said, "Feilu, just stay here and don't move. If you encounter danger, just rush over."

"I'm going out to see what's going on in town."

After all, they are not locals and should not be the mermaids' first target of revenge.

As for the safety of the holiday home...
