Chapter 704

Listening to Chi Chufeng's words, Island Bag Kimie couldn't help but shiver. She said with a pale face: "This, this is all a legend, how could such a thing happen."

Her panicked expression made Chi Chufeng take two more looks.

Chi Chufeng continued: "However, by the Edo period, the image of the mermaid had changed to an upper body of a human and a lower body of a fish, and it looked like they were developing toward a human appearance."

"I estimate that even if there really are mermaids now, they might be exactly the same as humans."

"Same as humans!" A light suddenly flashed in Sumire's eyes.

Island Bag Kimie's face turned pale, she turned her head to look at the main hall, bowed and said:

"Sorry everyone, I still have to prepare for tonight's festival, so I will take my leave first. If you have time tonight, you can also come to participate in the Salamander Festival."

Island Bag Kimie was about to leave, but I don't know what she remembered, so she took out two signs.

"By the way, I still have two number plates in my hand. They were originally for an old couple, but they suddenly had something to do this morning and left the number plates behind. Do you want to try your luck too?"

"Maybe you will draw a Salamander Arrow and be forever young and immortal from now on!"

Chi Chufeng looked at them but didn't take them.

This Island Bag Kimie seems to have some problems, it's better to watch from the sidelines.

He turned his head and said: "It's useless to me. Conan, Hattori, you two take them. This is the key to immortality."

"Us? Immortality?"

Hattori Heiji and Conan took the number plates with a confused look.

Seeing this scene, Island Bag Kimie seemed a bit disappointed.

She smiled reluctantly and said: "Also, if you want to know anything else about Saori, you can also ask Sumire. Sumire's surname is Ebihara, and like me, she is also a friend who grew up with Saori."

"Sumire, can you take care of these three?"

"Sorry, I'm not interested."

Ebihara Sumire looked at the number plates in Conan and the other's hands, snorted lightly, waved her hand, and turned to leave.

"Oh my, this Sumire. Sorry, I have to leave now. I will come to entertain the three of you after the festival ends."

Island Bag Kimie said goodbye and left.

Looking at her back, Hattori Heiji frowned and said:

"Conan, you should have thought of the rumors about the Salamander Arrow, right? If someone is deliberately using this legend, Miss Saori might have already met with an accident."

"It's a pity that our clues are really too few. Now everything is just speculation!"

Conan suddenly peeked at Chi Chufeng and asked: "By the way, Chi-san, didn't you also receive a commission from Miss Saori? Why aren't you in a hurry to find her?"

Chi Chufeng looked at Island Bag Kimie's back and said faintly: "There's nothing to find, her fate has already been determined."

In the Space Eye, a dark soul is clinging to Island Bag Kimie's calf.

That should be Miss Saori, who commissioned him.

However, it is really a bit strange.

Ordinary souls will cling to the top of the murderer's head, why would she cling to the calf?

Chi Chufeng slowly narrowed his eyes.

He didn't rush to collect the soul.

This shrine maiden is not simple, it's better not to disturb her for now, and wait and see.

Seven o'clock in the evening, the sky was already completely dark.

Inside the America Shrine, the place where the festival was held was brightly lit, and the surroundings were also crowded with people who came to participate in the festival.

These people included island residents and out-of-town tourists, all gathered together at this moment, waiting for the start of the festival.

In the front row of the crowd, Conan and Hattori Heiji stood together, chatting while waiting.

Conan looked back and asked: "Why don't I see Chi-san? Logically speaking, he should also come to such an interesting festival, right?"

"Hmm, who knows?" Hattori Heiji touched his forehead, which still had a bump, and curled his lips, "Maybe he felt bored, so he didn't come."

Inside the shrine, as the door in front of the altar opened, the crowd watching the festival became even more noisy.

Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at the room curiously.

"Hattori, what is the next ritual? Should the Longevity Granny appear?" Conan asked.
