The results of the investigation came out quickly. The only two people present who held the dugong arrow were the two who had drawn the arrow this time.

Toyama Kazuha, and Saori's father, Kadowaki Benzo.

"We can only go and confirm the roster for this festival." Kogoro Mouri confirmed the information with the witch's granddaughter, Kimie Shimabukuro.

"Come with me, the list is in the shrine." Shimabukuro Kimie led the detective team in the corridor. Two murders occurred in succession. Her expression was very heavy. "Do you think these two murders were committed by the same person? And if it was to steal the dugong arrow, maybe Saori has already..."

"You guys are talking about Saori, I saw her at the waterfall this morning." The middle-aged woman following behind the crowd suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention.

"Is it the waterfall where Sumi was fished to death?" Toru Amuro originally thought that Saori had been killed, but he didn't expect to hear news about her, and immediately pointed out the key.

"Yes." The middle-aged woman folded her hands in front of her, "But she ran away as soon as I greeted her. Saori is the only one on our island who has dyed her hair brown and wears glasses. I won't make a mistake."

"If it's confirmed to be Saori, she may be hiding from the murderer, so she can't show up in front of everyone." Hattori Heiji smoothed his hair and frowned when he saw Benzo Kadowaki standing aside, who was obviously hungover. "That Saori Kadowaki is your daughter, right? Don't you have any clues about her?"

"That girl always runs away from home," Benzo Menwaka was singled out and waved his hand nonchalantly, "I just hope that guy doesn't turn into a mermaid like that girl."

Benzo Kadowaki's gaze was focused on Naoko, who was hung in the middle of the fishing net.

"Become... a mermaid..." Yuanshan Heye followed Yin Jiu. His heart, which had originally relaxed, began to beat violently again, and his pupils began to contract.

Naoko's body was covered with fish scales, and the traces of footsteps on the ground were also step by step towards the seabed.

'If you let it go, demons will start to build nests, men will return to dust and become heartless demons. Women will return to water and become speechless mermaids.'

If the dugong's arrow leaves the body, it will...

Yuanshan Heye held the dugong arrow in his pocket tightly with trembling hands.

Maori Kogoro made the decision first, "Anyway, after daybreak, we will split up to look for Miss Saori."

"Then everyone else, come with me to check the roster for this year's festival." Hattori Heiji continued the conversation and divided the work. At the same time, he approached Toyama Kazuha and reminded him in a low voice, "Be careful next time, don't leave my side."

-

"That's weird. I clearly remember putting the things here." Shimabukuro rummaged through the cabinet and took out all the rosters from previous years. "That's weird. The rosters from previous years are all here, but this year's rosters are gone."

"Could it have been taken away by the witch?" Hattori Heiji looked at Amuro Toru secretly.

. . . It is also possible that the criminal destroyed the list in advance in order not to leave his name on it.

"That's impossible. These lists are usually kept inside the shrine. I'll look for them in other rooms." Shimabukuro Kimie stood up.

Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha immediately followed, "Then let's help look for it together."

"It would be safer if a few girls act together." Toru Amuro picked up a list on the ground and flipped through it.

Yin Jiu picked carefully and deliberately chose the year when Yin Shuli came over.

"Come to think of it, Brother Yin Jiu's mother's name should also be recorded in it," Conan was somewhat glad that Mao Li Ran and Toyama Kazuha had left. When he came closer, he saw Yin Jiu just turning over the page that recorded Yin Shuli's name.

"Sharon Wynyard?"

Conan read out the English word on the line next to it that stood out among the other words, and subconsciously looked up at Yin Jiu.

Isn't that Chrissie Wynyard's biological mother?

"Maybe my mother came with Aunt Sharon at that time? After all, she is a big star, and it is normal for her to want to stay young forever." Yin Jiu gently stroked the line of words with his fingers. Vermouth had never told him this.

As someone who knows Glenfiddich's identity, if it was Vermouth who followed him, there should be no lack of clues about Yin Shuli.

But when Vermouth learned that he was coming to Mermaid Island to investigate, she did not give any hints.

Then there are two possibilities left... Either Vermouth herself does not want him to know something, or that gentleman instructed Vermouth to hide the truth on purpose.

"..."

Yin Jiu suppressed his thoughts and chuckled. He was inclined to the former possibility. The itinerary of 'Glenfiddich and Bourbon landing on Mermaid Island to restart the investigation' had already been reported. Since that gentleman did not issue a clear order to stop it, it could only mean that the problem was with Vermouth.

As the person in charge of leading the search mission in Yin Shuli, Yin Jiu felt that he should be more direct.

As soon as Toru Amuro opened the booklet in his hand, he saw Yin Jiu's smiling face. When Yin Jiu looked at people with a smile, he would always subconsciously pretend to be innocent. With his clear eyes at this moment, it was easy to give people the illusion of being gazed at affectionately.

This look... Could it be that Silly Roe Deer wants to ask Vermouth directly?

Toru Amuro's fingers trembled, and when he thought of Yin Jiu's usual "consideration" towards Vermouth, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Silly Roe Deer is deeply in love with Vermouth, and that black-hearted old woman probably doesn't take Yin Jiu seriously at all.

Conan also observed Yin Jiu's expression and narrowed his eyes.

Sharon Wynyard's daughter is Chris Wynyard, and she seems to be in an ambiguous relationship with Yin Jiu.

Will Yin Jiu call directly to ask?

But maybe we can really get some different information.

Conan pricked up his ears and tilted his head high, waiting for Yin Jiu's next move.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jiu just tapped a few times on the phone screen.

"There is no record of Sirloin coming to Mermaid Island in the browser." Yin Jiu noticed the two anxious and expectant gazes around him, put his phone in his pocket, and began to type blindly, pretending to be regretful. "But the most likely thing that was taken away by my mother at that time should be the Dugong Arrow. Maybe it is the same style as the one in Sister Ye's hand."

"That's right."

The style of the dugong arrows seems to have never changed.

No, if it was something that Yin Shuli entrusted to Sharon Wynyard, it should have been returned to Yin Jiu long ago.

Everything seems to be back to the starting point.

Conan had a worried look on his face as he casually flipped through the list.

'Miyano Shiho, Kurosawa Jin. . . '

By the way, this seems to be Haibara Ai’s real name.

Conan's eyes turned into dead fish eyes, maybe it's just a coincidence?

"Even an entrepreneur like Daikoku Rentaro is among them. I didn't expect so many big shots want to live forever?" Hattori Heiji also had a list in his hand and was reading it with great interest.

"After all, they have obtained most of the resources in this world. The only thing that is worthy of their pursuit is immortality." Yin Jiu's hand continued to flip through the booklet, his eyes sweeping across the name 'Hattori Heizo' on another page without leaving a trace. The corners of his mouth rose, and his fingers gently stroked a brand new page and covered it.

Gin's survey email hasn't been sent yet, but he has already caught a glimpse of the "wish" of Mr. Hattori.

The thing that people fear most is having no desires or demands.

Yin Jiu memorized all the names he saw.
