Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 230: The childhood sweethearts group scores points!

At this moment, an auntie beside him said in confusion:

"Hey, are you talking about Saori? I saw her near the Mermaid Falls yesterday morning."

The heterochromatic eyes looked at everyone present through the translucent fish scales.

Not many people reacted, and it was obvious that no one was paying much attention to whether Saori Menkyo was still alive.

"Me too. I also saw her wandering through the forest near the Mermaid Falls from a distance."

This statement was made by an eyewitness who had obviously had the same experience.

After searching all day and finding nothing, Hattori got a clue here out of nowhere and was full of disbelief:

"Are you sure that what you saw was really Saori?"

"There's no doubt about it. He's the only kid on the island who has dyed his hair and wears glasses."

"And she usually wears blue."

A total bad girl.

Yun Xianhe, who had left an impression in his heart, turned around and pointed the raised scales at the gray night sky.

A bolt of lightning struck, and the sudden light made the scales in the brave man's hand appear perfectly transparent in that instant.

“The sea is so magical…”

"So, Saori must be trying to escape from someone's pursuit, so she can't show up in front of everyone calmly."

Hattori Heiji tried his best to deduce.

Would people who are obsessed with immortality still be bound by this sense of joint responsibility?

"Mr. Menxie, do you know why?"

Kogoro Mori looked at Mr. Menkyo with a slightly serious expression.

The other party was unmoved, and Uncle Maori's behavior was unlikely to scare her or make him behave himself.

It may be because something good happened recently, Mr. Menxie is unexpectedly easy to talk to:

"Who knows? That kid usually doesn't tell me anything."

At this point, Mr. Menxie glanced at the corpse not far away and said meaningfully:

"I just hope she doesn't become a mermaid like the girl who died."

"Mermaid? What do you mean?"

Kogoro Mouri and the others looked back at Naoko's body hanging on the net, and they obviously didn't understand.

"Look at the way she's hanging there. Doesn't she look like a fish that's been caught in a fishing net and hung there to dry?"

Yun Xianhe, who was originally watching the show, spoke in a faint tone, and sounded much more comfortable than that drunkard.

He Ye obviously thought of something horrible. Yun Xianhe could see his face turn pale instantly and his hands pressed tightly against his chest.

Xiaolan, who was standing by, also noticed it and was obviously worried.

Probably because the people who got into trouble were all carrying dugong arrows, Hattori seemed to have a sudden realization and earnestly warned:

"He Ye, please don't leave my side."

The hero's eyes lit up as his CP finally made some progress. He half-knelt down, pressed Conan's shoulders and shook them, and said in a low voice:

"Did you see that? Did you see that? Did Chocolate finally get it?!"

"Uh ah - Brother Xianhe, I see, I see!"

Is the childhood sweetheart group finally going to get points today?

Unfortunately, Yun Xianhe was destined to be disappointed.

Apart from this sentence, there was no further progress between the two of them.

Until the police finished their search and sat down at the dining table.

Yun Xianhe looked at the two girls who were standing close to each other, and the two people next to him who were eating and discussing a case seriously, and raised his hand to cover his entire face.

What on earth is he expecting!

A stone is always a stone! It is abnormal for it to bloom!

"Brother Xianhe? Are you okay?"

Yun Xianhe's force just now was quite strong, and one could even see red marks on his forehead from being pressed by his fingers.

"…Nothing, just not full."

The hero said this through gritted teeth, angrily showing off the entire plate of tempura in front of him.

Conan was stunned by his brutality (? )

The little detective hesitated for a moment and pushed his portion of fried shrimp over:

"Brother Xianhe should eat a little less."

"Okay - thank you Conan, Conan you are so considerate!"

Looking at Yun Xianhe, who was coaxed by a plate of fried shrimps and had pink translucent flowers starting to appear all around him, Conan sighed with his half-moon eyes.

Now I don’t know who is the older brother.

The atmosphere during dinner was relatively harmonious. At least nothing unexpected happened during the meal.

After Conan and Hattori finished their meal, they sat together whispering to each other, apparently discussing a case again.

"If only we could find out who bought which number plate last night."

Hattori half complained in a somewhat loud voice.

Miss Jun Hui, who was sitting not far away, tilted her head:

“This is easy.”

"Huh?!" x2

"Because I always write down the name of the owner of each number plate in the roster."

Seeing that they seemed to have finished eating, Shimabukuro Kimie suggested:

"Do you want to go look at that list now?"

"Yeah!" x2

The detectives will not let go of any clue.

Mr. Menxie, who was sipping his wine and eavesdropping, narrowed his eyes and felt that the two guys, one big and one small, were annoying.

Suddenly, a chill spread from the tailbone all the way up to the brain.

The brain paralyzed by alcohol was occupied by the body's instinctive fear, and even briefly regained clarity.

Mr. Menxie lowered his head in horror and fixed his gaze on the wine glass on the table.

Who is it? Is the murderer targeting him? !

"Brother Xianhe, have you finished eating? Let's go together!"

The brave man who was eating slowly withdrew his gaze indifferently, stuffed the last piece of fried shrimp into his mouth, and responded indistinctly.

The threat of death dissipated.

Mr. Menxie, who felt like he had been through the gates of hell, breathed a sigh of relief. The back of his shirt and suit jacket were completely wet.

He raised his hand in doubt and placed the wine glass to his lips, looking at the people around him while taking a sip of the wine.

who is it? ?

On the other side, Yun Xianhe followed Conan and others out of the restaurant.

Uncle Maori was drunk as expected.

There was no other choice, Hattori had to help Xiaolan and the others send Kogoro Mori and others back first.

Yun Xianhe, who was walking behind them, clearly heard someone calling Shimabukuro Kimie, who was following not far behind him.

He looked back and happened to see Fukuyama Rokuro calling Miss Junhui to talk.

"Jun Hui, I know now is not the right time, but can you please consider it? I am serious."

Conan, who also heard this, glanced back as if nothing had happened.

Shimabukuro-kunie seemed a little embarrassed and smiled bitterly:

"Don't do this. This would be unfair to the deceased Sumi, and I still have my great-grandmother to take care of. So, there is no way I can leave this island. Sorry."

The two people who had eaten a big meal looked at each other.

Seeing that Fukuyama Rokuro seemed to be paying attention to this side, Yun Xianhe put his arm around Conan and walked forward.

When Miss Junhui walked to the front to lead the way, Conan, who was walking at the end, gradually became serious.

Yun Xianhe, who was standing by, stretched his body lazily:

"The relationship between these characters is really messy..."

So, the actor who plays the mermaid,

Why do you hate these humans who want to live forever?
