My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 756 Find the treasure

"Ah!" The little ones were a little surprised when they heard it.

Genta, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Sayuri all subconsciously looked out the window, and the sky was still clear.

Conan carefully looked at the content on Aoki Matsu's mobile phone. As expected, a storm was coming to Shenhai Island, and according to the forecast, the storm would be very strong and long-lasting, and would not stop completely until tomorrow morning.

In this weather, Conan didn't even dare to go out and seek death.

Of course, no one living by the sea dares to go out to sea when they know a snowstorm is coming, unless they really want to die.

"Although you have found the location, it is not easy to find the treasure. Let's wait until the storm is over." Niina Kaori walked over and said to the little ones.

"Alas." After hearing this, the little ones wilted like chickens in water. After looking at each other, they were forced to accept this cruel reality. "Okay."

Not only Conan and his friends can't go treasure hunting, Aoki Matsu and his friends can't leave either. They have to stay on Shenhai Island for one night, so they have to take turns to watch over Iwanaga Shiro, Matsumoto Mitsuji and Izu Santaro.

Not long after, the storm arrived as expected, and the entire Shenhai Island was instantly dark, accompanied by bursts of thunder.

"It's really a storm." Sayuri said, looking out the window.

Hearing this, Qing Musong walked over and touched her little head, and said with a smile: "Could it be that you still think that I, your brother, am lying to you?"

Sayuri shook her head. "No, it's just that the weather was very good just now!"

"That's why the sea is so awe-inspiring. The weather changes at any time." Qing Musong said with a smile, then squatted down, looked at Sayuri and asked softly, "It's thundering, are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid." Sayuri shook her head and complained, "Brother, don't treat us like children. We are the Junior Detective Team. We are not afraid of things that only children are afraid of."

Aoki Matsu found it a little funny when he heard this, but he still followed Sayuri's words and responded: "Okay, you are the Junior Detective Team, not children."

Walking over to sit next to Shinna Kaori, Aoki Matsu said in a low voice with amusement: "Sayuri is just like me when I was a child. She really doesn't like being treated as a child by adults. But at this age, she is a child!"

Shinname Kaori also laughed when she heard this, "I was the same when I was a child, looking forward to growing up quickly, but when I really grew up, I missed the carefree days of my childhood."

Perhaps this is a growth process that most people will go through.

The next day, when we woke up in the morning, the storm had passed and the weather was great, looking very suitable for traveling.

The little members of the Junior Detective Team can't wait to go treasure hunting.

Aoki Matsu also followed them. Not only him, but also Shinna Kaori, Mori Kogoro, Inspector Megure and others, including Mima Kazuo, went, leaving only two police officers to guard the prisoners.

It was a treasure, and no one could resist going to see it. Besides, Anne Bonny's machete and Mary Read's pistol were precious cultural relics, so they could not be given to children or tourists at will. They had to be kept by the police.

"Let's go to the entrance of the Goddess on Laiqin Island first. If possible, we don't have to dive and can take the water route." Aoki Matsu said.

After arresting Yan Yongcheng'er, he was interrogated on the spot and naturally found out the route.

Conan subconsciously said, "Brother Aoki, Mr. Iwanaga told me before that there was a landslide due to the earthquake last week. The earth and rocks blocked the road and people couldn't get in."

Qing Musong smiled and said, "He is a criminal now, and he committed the crime because of the treasure, so we can't believe everything he said about the treasure. We can't just take it as it is. He is very likely lying, and we have to investigate it ourselves to confirm the truth."

"Little kids are just easy to trust people." Kogoro Mouri complained on the side.

Upon hearing this, Conan immediately gave Kogoro Mouri a dead look. He just hadn't come to terms with these unimportant matters.

So everyone first took a boat to Laiqin Island. After getting off the boat, they walked a little further onto the island and saw a small ancestral hall.

Approaching the small shrine, Qing Musong saw two statues of goddesses enshrined inside the shrine. This must be the origin of the "Jolly Roger".

The entrance is just behind the small ancestral hall. You can go up from the stone stairs on the left. The entrance is a cave at the end.

After Qing Musong went forward to check, he found that the barbed wire fence blocking the entrance of the cave had collapsed for some unknown reason. Although the entrance was a bit small, a slim adult could still walk in.

Well, Aoki Matsu was talking about Inspector Megure and Professor Agasa, as well as Shiratori Jinsaburo who has gained a lot of weight recently because he has been eating the love bento made by Kobayashi Sumiko every day.

"See, Conan, I told you that Iwanaga Cheng'er's words can't be believed. Look, such a big hole, even an adult can get in." Aoki Matsu pretended a little.

Without paying attention to Conan's depressed expression, Aoki Matsu discussed with Inspector Megure and decided that Shiratori Rensaburo and Dr. Agasa would stay on the boat. After the others went into the cave to search for treasure, he took out a flashlight, turned it on, and walked into the cave first.

Now that the storm has passed, any landslide that was going to happen would have happened long ago.

Since there is no landslide here, it means there will be no landslide now, so there is no need to worry.

As for why there was a landslide due to a storm in the movie version, but not here.

Aoki Matsu guessed that it might be because of sharks. In the movie, the sharks swam over to attack Mao Li Ran and the others because they smelled blood, but they crashed into the mountains under the sea. It is possible that the sharks hit the underwater mountains before the storm, causing a crack in the underwater mountains, and then the storm expanded the crack, so that the gap became larger and larger and could not support the weight above and then collapsed.

But there was no such thing here. The three criminals were arrested by Qing Musong last night. There was no shark hitting the underwater mountain, so the cave did not collapse.

Of course, these are all Aoki Matsu's speculations and may not be the truth.

After entering the cave, the road is indeed very narrow, and there is a section of the road that goes downwards and is a bit steep. There are also some intersections where you need to squat on the ground to walk through.

But with a flashlight, as long as you slow down and be more careful, you can still go on.

After walking down for about ten minutes, Qing Musong came to a flat ground paved with stones, on which lay several skeletonized corpses.

Qing Musong walked forward to take a look, then said to the people walking behind him: "These people should be treasure hunters. It seems that they have been dead for decades."

"Ah." The little ones saw the corpse and screamed subconsciously.

"We shouldn't have reached the treasure yet. How could these people die here?" Sato Miwako said curiously.

Because there is a passage built with stones ahead, and it is much wider than the passage from the cave entrance to the flat ground. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that the treasure should be at the end of the passage. Since there is still some distance to the treasure, how could he die here? Was he chased here and died, or was he carried here after his death?

"I don't know." Qing Musong shook his head. There were so many injuries on the skull that he couldn't find them. He wasn't a god, so how could he know everything? Holding a flashlight, Qing Musong said to the others, "Let's keep going forward."

Entering the passage and walking to the end, you will see a door made of two large stones. There is a scary skull carved on the top of the door, and below it are four concave carvings of pistols and machetes crossing each other. On top of one of the patterns, there is a wooden stick, and next to it is a corpse that has been dead for decades.

"It seems that this should be the real door to the treasure." Qing Musong said, taking out Ann Bonnie's scimitar and Mary Read's pistol from the backpack, then stepped forward to take down the wooden stick, and then placed the pistol on the upper left and the scimitar on the lower right.

The next second, the stone door made a heavy sound and then slowly opened to the left and right.

"Brother Aoki, how did you know to put it like this?" Yuantai asked curiously when he saw this scene.

The others also looked at Qing Musong, wanting to know the answer.

"Could it be that Iwanaga Shiro confessed? But hasn't he found the treasure yet?" asked Maori Kogoro in confusion.

"Because these dead treasure hunters gave me instructions! They just put the sticks here, but it's obviously wrong. The pistol and the machete should be placed here. As for why they were placed like this, have you forgotten how Anne Bonny and Mary Read fought? Mary Read was on the left with a pistol, and Anne Bonny was on the right with a machete, fighting back to back." Qing Musong said with a smile: "As long as this is the real treasure, there is only one way to put it."

"That's it." Everyone suddenly realized.

After the door was completely opened, everyone couldn't wait to go in.

The flashlight shone inside, and what caught everyone's eyes was a huge wooden boat.

The wooden boat was very large. The hull alone was taller than three adults, and the mast was much taller than the hull. In addition, in such a "narrow space" in the cave, the visual experience would be magnified a lot, so this giant ship brought a greater shock to everyone.

People seem a little small next to this wooden boat.

Aoki Matsu was very curious about how the ship was placed here.

Both exits were too small to allow the huge ship to pass through. As for transporting the materials here and splicing them together, that was even more impossible. If such a large ship could be built anywhere, the shipyard would not have to choose a specific location.

This giant ship has a huge goddess-style figurehead on the bow, which reflects dazzling golden light under the light.

gold?!

This was Qing Musong's first thought, but then he shook his head. The figurehead was too big, stretching from the bow to halfway up the hull. If it was all gold, it would be very heavy, enough to make the giant ship top-heavy and unable to float. So it should be gilded, or even gold foil.

"Wow, it's so big."

"Found it, found it!"

“This must be the treasure!”

"Oh my God……"

"It's amazing!"

Everyone was shocked to see such a big ship, including Aoki Matsu who had expected it.

After all, knowing is one thing, and seeing it with your own eyes is another. Some things are difficult to imagine in your mind unless you see them with your own eyes.

It took a while for everyone to recover from their shock.

"Treasure, the treasure should be on the ship!" Yuan Tai asked anxiously, "I wonder how much there is, how much eel rice I can buy."

Qing Musong shook his head and said, "Seeing this huge wooden boat, I think it may not contain the mountains of gold, silver and jewels you imagined?"

"Ah! Why?" Yuan Tai was dumbfounded.

Mitsuhiko also said: "What is the connection between the ship and the treasure?"

"How could such a big ship not have treasure?" Sayuri asked puzzledly.

"It cost a lot of money to build such a huge wooden ship in that era. Pirates were not as rich as everyone imagined. If they were really as rich as everyone imagined, they would have washed their hands and gone ashore long ago. I remember that at a certain time in the West, people could use money to buy titles and land. So I guess the money had been spent by the time this ship was built." Aoki Matsu said with a smile.

"Ah!" The little ones were all stunned.

Not just a few little ones, but quite a few people as well.

"I don't believe it!" Yuan Tai shouted and ran towards the giant ship bravely.

A stone staircase was deliberately built next to the giant ship. You can get on board by just going up the staircase.

Seeing Yuantai rushing over, the little ones followed suit. Seeing the children rushing over, the adults who were worried about what might happen also ran over.

Shinna Kaori, who was left at the end, looked at Aoki Matsu who didn't move his feet and asked, "Matsu-kun, do you really think so?"

"Of course, how much money could pirates of that era have? Being able to leave behind a jar of gold coins was already considered extremely wealthy." Aoki Matsu shook his head and said.

As for the mountains of gold, silver, and jewelry, those are scenes that only appear in cartoons and novels.

In reality, Qing Musong estimated that such scenes could only be seen in the treasury of the empire during its heyday, the temple warehouse where the ancient Indian Brahmins had worshipped for thousands of years, and the bottom of the Golden Lake where the Indians had worshipped for thousands of years.

The Templar treasure and the Moustache treasure are a little bit off, because these treasures were scattered and hidden. As for the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum and the Egyptian Pyramids, they are also a little off, after all, there is a limit to how many things can be buried with the dead.

This is the case for countries and emperors, let alone pirates, who simply don't have much wealth.

Sure enough, after the person running in front entered the giant ship, he searched the ship inside and out, but he didn't find any gold, silver, or jewelry, not even a copper coin.

"Oh, it seems that Brother Aoki guessed right. All the money was used to build a giant ship. There is no treasure." Mitsuhiko said with a sigh, lowering his head.

Yuan Tai also sighed and said, "I was thinking about having a big meal of eel rice after finding the treasure."

Well, this idea is indeed very original!

Qing Musong smiled and said: "You can't say that. In the eyes of some people, this huge ship is a priceless treasure and a treasure."
