Conan's Devil Child Comes to the World

Chapter 586 Eating mermaid meat (first change, ask for a ticket)
If he had known that Hui Yuan Ai was so powerful, Belmode would definitely not have come to provoke her.

But compared to Hui Yuan Ai, Belmode hated that bastard Gin even more.

If it wasn't because of Gin, who once told Belmode that Miyano Shiho was a helpless kitten, how could she kick the iron plate?
That idiot Gin doesn't even know that Miyano Shiho has superpowers, so it's no wonder he's being played around by the two sisters!
"Perhaps this is retribution..."

After struggling for more than ten minutes in the icy sea water, the exhausted Belmode finally chose to give up, with a flash of reluctance and relief in his eyes, and slowly sank into the deep sea.

"Crash..."

Just when Belmode's mouth and nose were submerged in sea water, and he was about to fall into a coma due to suffocation, a black shadow suddenly shot from the deep sea in the distance.

"I... am I dreaming?"

As the black shadow continued to approach, Belmode, whose mind had begun to blur, finally saw her appearance clearly. It turned out to be a mermaid whose upper body was like a human beauty and the lower body was a fishtail.

That's right!

This mermaid that suddenly appeared was none other than "Flaming Lady" among Suzuki Seimei's four stand-ins.

Although Belmode is a big villain, Suzuki Seimei has a good impression of her, and naturally he will not just watch her die in the bottom of the sea, and he is also planning to take this opportunity to subdue Belmode.

"I... am I going to die..."

Seeing the legendary mythical creature with his own eyes, Belmode thought it was a hallucination he saw before he died, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into a coma.

"Whoosh-"

Seeing this, Yan Lingji leaned over to give Belmod a mouthful of oxygen, and flicked her tail violently, leading her to disappear into the deep sea.

On the other side, after Hui Yuanai threw Belmode into the sea, she didn't expect that she would survive, and returned to the deck of the ship without changing her face.

Since Conan's attention was all attracted by Captain Ghost's corpse, no one except Suzuki Seimei noticed that Haibara Ai had just left.

And Suzuki Seimei knew very well in his heart that the reason why Haibara Ai would kill Belmode was because Belmode touched her reverse scale, and she would not blame her for this matter.

Although Suzuki Seimei wanted to take the opportunity to subdue Belmode, but he would not use his real identity to subdue her, but let Aizan's substitute come forward to draw her into the death organization.

Because of the murder on the ghost ship, the ghost ship also returned to Tokyo Bay immediately.

When the ghost ship entered the port and stopped, Officer Megure, who had been waiting on the pier for a long time, quickly took Officer Takagi and the others aboard.

"Brother Maori, what happened?"

Officer Megure first asked Officer Takagi and the others to maintain order, and then went to Mouri Kogoro in person to inquire about the details of the case.

When Police Officer Megure learned from Mori Kogoro that the murderer who killed the ghost captain was most likely hidden among the seven guests who received the Death Card, he quickly led someone to check the Tarot cards in the hands of the guests. .

After some careful inspection, police officer Meguro and the others only found six guests who had received the death card.

In order to find the No. 7 guest who got the death card, Police Officer Meguro sent people to search the entire ghost ship, and finally found the murderer's body at the stern.

Judging from the crossbow held in the dead man's hand and the crossbow bolt nailed to the cabin, it is basically certain that the dead man was the murderer who killed the ghost captain.

It's just that what police officers Mumu and the others couldn't figure out was, who shot the murderer with a gun?
According to the clues left at the scene, Conan also reasoned out the scene closest to the truth in his mind.

If Conan guessed correctly, the murderer should have met someone by accident while trying to escape after killing Captain Ghost.

Maybe that person happened to see the face of the murderer, so the murderer wanted to kill people with a crossbow, but the murderer didn't expect that the person had a gun in his hand, and was killed by that person instead.

As for who that person is, Conan also has an object of suspicion in his heart, and that is absinthe!
After all, the members of the Black Organization are basically very powerful killers, and it is normal for absinthe to kill the killers.

In order to find the murderer hidden in the crowd, Police Officer Mumu asked people to react to the smoke on the people on the ghost ship, but no one who met the conditions for committing the crime was found. In the end, he could only think that the murderer was the murderer and fled in a small boat ahead of time.

……

next morning
Mermaid Island Shrine

"Water... water..."

Belmode, who was sleeping, was suddenly awakened by a strong sense of thirst. He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a strange ceiling.

"Are you awake?"

Junhui Shimabukuro, who was cleaning the room, quickly poured her a glass of cold water after hearing the movement from Belmode, and handed it to her mouth.

"Gudong~gudong~gudong..."

"Slow down, don't worry, no one will grab you."

Seeing that Belmode drank all the water in the glass in one breath, Junhui Shimabukuro poured her a glass of water again, and then said in a very envious tone: "I don't know how many years you have been blessed, To be able to be picked up by Master Yan Lingji in the vast sea, and fortunately to eat the legendary mermaid meat."

It's no wonder Shimabukuro Junhui is so envious. When Yan Lingji sent Belmode to Mermaid Island last night, she already looked like a dead person.

When Shimabukuro Junhui saw Belmode, not only was her face extremely pale, but her feet were also festered, and she was in a near-death state.

If Yan Lingji hadn't cut off a piece of mermaid meat from her lotus root arm and fed it to Belmode, giving her the ability to live forever, it would be impossible for her to see the sun today.

Of course!
Yan Lingji is not a real mermaid, she is just a substitute fabricated by Suzuki Seimei, and her meat cannot give the eater the ability to live forever.

The reason why Belmode's wounds were able to heal quickly was because Yan Lingji secretly used a skill book "Super Speed ​​Regeneration" for her, and giving her mermaid meat was just a cover-up.

It is impossible for Shimabukuro Junhui to say that she is not envious of seeing Belmode eat mermaid meat and gain the ability to live forever.

However, Junhui Shimabukuro has long learned from Aizen that mermaid meat is not something that can be eaten at will, and not everyone can obtain the ability of immortality by eating mermaid meat.

Most people will die suddenly after eating mermaid meat instead of gaining the ability of immortality.
