Chapter 254

Little Conan also saw the grand scene under the stage and gave a "Heh."

Then he suddenly said "Ah-leh" and pointed to someone in the back row of the audience. "Mr. Kinoshita, who is that person sitting in the very back?"

In such a large audience, only that one person was sitting in the back row; it was too conspicuous.

"That is the islander Koji Hamada," Goro Kinoshita replied. "He is responsible for guarding the lighthouse."

"I see." Little Conan nodded. He suddenly twitched his nose. "Strange, do you guys feel like there's a weird smell?"

"A weird smell? It seems there really is a bit." Ran also sniffed.

"This... it seems to be the smell of gasoline!"

Conan turned his head to observe the surroundings, his gaze falling on the celebration ball above the stage, and his pupils shrank instantly. He then said to Uncle Mouri, who was pulling the rope, "Uncle Mouri, hurry and dodge!"

"Hmm?" Kogoro Mouri was confused and subconsciously pulled the ribbon.

The celebration ball above the stage suddenly ignited, turning into a large fireball that fell from the air.

Kogoro Mouri was startled and hurriedly lunged forward, finally dodging it.

But a ball of flame from the fireball flew right onto his stuck-out butt, scaring him into screaming, "It's on fire! My butt is on fire!"

"Dad!"

Ran exclaimed, grabbed the fire extinguisher nearby, rushed to Kogoro Mouri's side, and extinguished the flames on his butt.

"Mr. Mouri!" Goro Kinoshita also came over with another fire extinguisher and extinguished the still-burning celebration ball.

Conan ran quickly to the side of the celebration ball, sniffed, and looked at the things left inside the ball, his brows furrowed tightly.

Is this an ignition device?

Did someone deliberately set a trap to kill Uncle Mouri?

Conan looked up, surveyed the surroundings, and then froze.

Strange, why is that Koji Hamada gone?

Logically speaking, if a fire suddenly broke out on stage, a normal person should have rushed up to help, right?

Why did he leave instead?

Also, it's very strange that this person would appear here. You have to know that the people who came were all old people and children, and he was the only middle-aged person.

Could it be that he set this fire?

Fushijima, on the beach by the sea.

It was noon. Although black energy was rolling in the navy cave, the beach not far away was not significantly affected.

Blue sky, white clouds, beach, waves, sea breeze—the scenery was beautiful, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Because of the ghosts on the island, the island refused to solicit tourists, so the beach was naturally empty as hell.

Akaso Kaze walked out of the cave and shouted to Takeo Mikami from afar.

In the distance, quite a few villagers had gathered.

Hearing Akaso Kaze's shout, they hurriedly ran over.

Takeo Mikami asked respectfully, "Lord Akaso, have the navy ghosts in the cave been eliminated?"

After Takeo Mikami finished speaking, a group of people looked at Akaso Kaze expectantly, waiting for his answer.

"Not yet." Akaso Kaze waved his hand, and at the same time, a roar came from the cave, which sounded very creepy.

"My shikigami is fighting the navy ghosts inside the cave. I feel a bit hungry, so I came out to have lunch. Has the food been brought yet?"

Takeo Mikami and the others looked at Akaso Kaze with admiration.

Did you see that? This is the demeanor of a great general.

His shikigami is fighting inside, and the Onmyoji has come out to eat!

This is truly too confident.

"Yes, all kinds of seafood have been brought. Lord Onmyoji, please feel free to eat."

Takeo Mikami hurriedly greeted the islanders to take the food out of the car.

Five minutes later, in the open space in front of the navy cave.

A large tablecloth was spread on the ground, covered with food brought by the islanders.

There were even various fruits and fine wine.

Akaso Kaze and the islanders ate delicious food and drank fine wine, listening to the sounds of battle coming from the navy cave.

Speaking of which, eating and drinking in this atmosphere feels great!

It has a feeling of "laughing and talking while the enemy's ships are turned to ashes."

"Lord, the ghosts have all been eliminated, and a strange thing has been discovered."

Hearing the report from the magic maid via the space, Akaso Kaze hurriedly stood up and walked into the cave.

The end of the cave was a suddenly sunken flat ground.

A neat set of brick steps led downward.

These steps should have been built by humans, and the time shouldn't be long.

In the center of the sunken flat ground, a navy ghost was slowly emerging from the ground.

Akemi Miyano and the Mist Tengu were waiting boredly on the side.

The ghost had finally managed to poke its head out.

The Mist Tengu, which had long been impatient, took a bite.

The ghost's head immediately went into its stomach.

The Mist Tengu licked its lips in dissatisfaction and continued to wait.

It seems the magic array is under this flat ground. ===== CHAPTER 256 =====
