Coast, a young Man in Black Clothes sat on a Large Reef, looking at the gloomy Sea in the distance.
A flock of Seagull hovered nearby, and from ti to ti, one or two flew from afar, chirping/cawing and landed beside the Man.
"I guess it won't rain."
"You didn't find anyone over there either? Never Mind."
"There is no Place suitable for your Life on my side."
"Right, on the Large Island across the Sea..."
"Have you always lived here?"
"Only co here when it's Cold?"
"Has a Man in Black Clothes with long silver Hair co here before?"
"Hmm... indeed, a Fellow who didn't look like a good person."
"At that ti..."
The Man's Expression was indifferent, and there was no Emotion in his eyes looking at the dim Sea, whispering softly... just like a Crazy person talking to himself to the Sea.
Another Seagull flew over and landed beside Chi Feichei, chirp/caw twice.
"Found it? What about the Bug and Transmitter?"
The Seagull chirp/caw with a drawn-out sound, appearing sowhat eerie in the dim sky.
Chi Feichei picked up the Laptop placed aside, put it on his lap, and turned it on.
At the sa ti, he dialed a Phone Call with his Mobile Phone.
"It's , I've arrived at the Place."
On the other end of the Phone Call, Gin asked directly, "Have you found the person?"
"Found them, they brought an assistant, both of them are wearing Masks and Scarf, and stuck on Fake Beard, it's really not easy to find," Chi Feichei held the Mobile Phone in his left Hand, and connected a long box-shaped Listening Device to the Computer with his right Hand, and controlled the Laptop to open a Software, "The Transmitter has been placed in his Travel Bag, in addition, I stuck a Bug at the Window of his Room, the specific Eavesdropping Situation, I will use the Software in the Computer to automatically record it, and then upload it to you through the Internet..."
There was silence on the other end of the Phone Call for a while, and there was a faint sound of Keyboard tapping.
"I see it, thank you for your Troubleso work."
"No Matter."
After hanging up the Phone Call, Chi Feichei also played the Movent from the Bug on the Computer.
"Mr. Yoshimoto, if it is discovered by others, I am afraid they will say that you are too superstitious..."
"That's just an Attack ans of the Opponent, No Need to take it to heart, if it is discovered by others, just say that we are here to investigate the Environnt of Arica Island, and intend to Investnt in a School here, what did the Shrine say?"
"Miss Shrine Maiden said, they will not privately sell the Dugong Arrow, please draw lots according to the Rules, if you do not draw it, you can Purchase it from the person who draws it at that ti, Mr. Yoshimoto, Actually even if the Dugong Arrow is given to Councilman Mitsui, his Body may not get better..."
"Regardless of whether it is useful or not, as long as he sees my Goodwill, that's enough..."
Chi Feichei pressed pause on the playback, the Recording was still continuing.
Looking at it this way, Yoshimoto Eiyo ca to rmaid Island to please soone and wanted to get a Dugong Arrow.
As For why he acted secretly from the Organization, he could not make a Judgnt, Perhaps he felt that his Wings had hardened and wanted to fly away from the Organization by Oneself, whether it needs to be eliminated is judged by Gin, No Need for him to worry about.
Looked at the Battery Level, still 99%.
This Laptop was still assembled with Doctor Agasa's Help, and the battery life has also been strengthened, although running that Recording transmission Software in the Backstage is very power-consuming, it can Probably last for five or six Hour.
Chi Feichei sat and talked with the Seagull for a while, and soon received a Phone Call from Hattori Heiji.
"Hassashi-niichan, the people in the village say, Kadowaki Saori has been missing for three Day, so people in the village say she may have taken a Ship to Main Island, But if that Letter of Request is not a Prank, she is Probably in mortal danger, we are now preparing to Go To the specialty Shop where she works at the Street Corner to Check, if you want to co over, just co here directly."
"Okay, I know."
Chi Feichei hung up the Phone Call, Get Up and put the Computer in his Bag, and said to a flock of Seagull, "I'll go back first."
Most of the Seagull did not have Spirituality, and there was no response even if he said it, just chirp/caw with their Companion.
But a Seagull flapped its Wings and started a terrible act of spoilers.
"By the Way, the Longevity Granny on the island is disguised by Miss Shrine Maiden, that festival Activity is useless at all!"
"No, no, the previous Longevity Granny was disguised by Miss Shrine Maiden's Mother..."
"Miss Shrine Maiden's Mother was killed by her Friends, her Friends thought Longevity Granny was real, and went Crazy for Longevity, wanted to Attack her Mother, and as a result, caused her Mother to be locked in the Warehouse and burned to death."
"Yes, that was also three years ago, a big Fire rose in the Warehouse, we all went over to see secretly..."
Chi Feichei: "..."
Originally, he rembered this Case, and had no Interest in the Investigation, But this group of Seagull still wanted to remind him...
Annoying spoilers.
...
Before going to et up with others, Chi Feichei went to Saori Kadowaki's House.
If he actively agreed to co before, and then beca a Slacker after coming, Conan and Hattori Heiji would Suspicion that he ca here for other Matters.
So no matter how uninterested he was in the Investigation, he had to pretend to do sothing.
The Door was knocked, the Man who opened the Door was full of Sll of Alcohol, staring at Chi Feichei with red squinted eyes, Seemingly trying to identify him, and after a while, he said, "Who are you? You wouldn't be the Man that wild Girl Saori found Outside, right?"
"Hello, I am Just a Friend she knows in Tokyo," Chi Feichei handed over the Liquor he bought, his Tone indifferent, "This ti I ca to rmaid Island to participate in the festival, and wanted to co to visit her by the way, may I ask if she is at Ho?"
Benzou Kadowaki felt like he was frozen by Air Conditioning, sobered up a lot, looked at the Liquor he took in his Hand, just wanted to enthusiastically pull Chi Feichei in, But when he looked up, looking at Chi Feichei in Black Clothes, his temperant calm and gloomy, he gave up, and made way at the Entrance, and said with a smile, "Please co in and sit down, that Child Saori is not at Ho, she went Out four or five Day ago and has not returned yet, But I think she will be Ho soon..."
Chi Feichei stared at Benzou Kadowaki, "Do you know where she went?"
Benzou Kadowaki listened to Chi Feichei's Polite Words, but still felt Cold around him, and said with a dry smile, "I don't know either, this Child of hers can't stay still since she was a Child, she likes to run around..."
Chi Feichei glanced at Inside the Room, the Curtain was drawn, very dim, the ground was a bit ssy, and it was filled with a strong Sll of Cigarette and Liquor, "Since she is Offline, then I will co to visit again Tomorrow."
Seeing the other party Turn Around and leave, Benzou Kadowaki was stunned for a mont, and then did not know whether to feel regret or relief.
Never Mind, it's good to leave, he'll go drink.
After Chi Feichei left, he also inquired about Saori Kadowaki's Situation from the surrounding Pedestrians, and after receiving a Phone Call from Hattori Heiji, he went to the Shrine to et up with a group of people.
After Chi Feichei entered the Shrine, he saw Hattori Heiji and his group standing with a Girl in Shrine Maiden clothes at a Glance, and walked over.
"My great-grandmother's Age?" Miss Shrine Maiden Shimabukuro Kimiie held the Gohei used by Shrine Maiden for Prayer and cleaning in her Hand, her Voice gentle and serious, "Actually, it's not 200 years old as people say, she just turned 130 years old this year, Just go to the Household Registry Office to Check and you will know, she is Just living a little longer than others, and it caused such a Sensation."
"That's for sure..." Mouri Ran sweated.
Mori Kogoro also sweated and said, "Being able to live to 130 years old is already a Sensation enough, right..."
Chi Feichei walked behind a few people and asked, "Are you investigating, or gossiping?"
"Uh, Hassashi-niichan, you're here..." Hattori Heiji sweated, and forcibly defended, "Investigation should also be step-by-step!"
"That..." Kazuha Toyama couldn't help but ask, "Where is your grandmother?"
Shimabukuro Kimiie curiously looked at Chi Feichei, and said to Kazuha Toyama, "She is in the Room now, preparing to bestow Magic Power to the three Arrows that will be given to people later."
"Th-that Grandmother really ate rmaid at?" Mori Kogoro couldn't help but lean closer and ask.
Hattori Heiji had black lines all over his Head: "..."
Okay, he admitted that Chi Feichei didn't say randomly, looking at it this way, they really looked like they were here for gossip...
"Huh?" Shimabukuro Kimiie was stunned, and then laughed out loud, "Hahahaha... how could there be rmaid in this World... that's a lie!"
"Huh?" Mori Kogoro was confused by Shimabukuro Kimiie's laughter, "B-But 'Dugong Arrow'..."
Shimabukuro Kimiie stopped laughing and explained seriously, "My deceased Mother said, that Arrow was originally supposed to represent the Exorcising Evil Spirits Curse Arrow, But later because my great-grandmother was very Longevity, the people on the island associated it with rmaid, and changed it to Dugong that lives in the Sea without authorization, and it was passed down as Dugong Arrow..."
"So your Mother has passed away." Mouri Ran said softly.
Hattori Heiji realized that Chi Feichei was looking at him, Speechless, he squatted down and reached out to scratch his Hair.
Okay, okay, he admitted, they were Just here for gossip.
"Yes, five years ago she and my Father died at Sea," Shimabukuro Kimiie said, "Even my grandparents disappeared when they took a Ship to Sea once before I was born."
"Your Family all died at Sea?" Kazuha Toyama couldn't help but say, "Could there be sothing you don't know? For Example, being cursed after eating rmaid at or sothing?"
"Impossible!" Shimabukuro Kimiie laughed, "Before, I also took a Ship to Main Island with Saori, But nothing happened."
Hattori Heiji stood up all of a sudden and asked, "You said you went to Main Island with Miss Saori? When?"
"Just four Day ago..." Shimabukuro Kimiie said, "I said I wanted to see a Dentist, so she accompanied , because there is no Dentist on this island."
"At that ti, was Saori's Emotion State stable?" Mori Kogoro asked.
Shimabukuro Kimiie recalled, "Saori was very afraid because she lost the Dugong Arrow, and also asked Her to ask Grandmother if there was a thod, even if I told her that the Curse was fake, she still didn't believe it, and kept saying she must have been cursed by rmaid... Probably because when handing over the Dugong Arrow, I would tell them that Legend."
"Oh?" Mori Kogoro looked at Shimabukuro Kimiie inquisitively.
Shimabukuro Kimiie lowered her Head, "I was worried that those who asked for Arrows would complain because they did not have Longevity, so when I gave them the Arrow, I would tell them that if they lost the Arrow or did not believe in the Strength of the Arrow, rmaid would bring disaster... Actually, there is no such Matter at all."
"Kimiie, you are too silly!" A Woman in a Purple Dress walked forward, "You say so because you simply do not understand the Strength of Lord."
Shimabukuro Kimiie turned her Head in surprise, "Sumi..."
Chi Feichei raised his eyes and looked at the Environnt of the Shrine.
Lord, is an honorific title for gods or nobles.
However, he really didn't find anything different here.
