Chapter 706: The little shrine maiden's figure is really quite nice

After finishing this, the Longevity Hag put the stick back into the fire, then slowly walked back into the room and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Hattori Heiji watched this scene, let out an "ah," and blinked: "Is this what they call a drawing? It feels so casual."

Conan was also speechless.

Are they playing a joke on us with this drawing?

I thought they would bring a box over and draw on the spot.

It turns out the winning numbers were predetermined, and burning them onto the paper doors was just for show.

Could it be that there's something shady about this drawing?

Hattori Heiji looked at the number above and suddenly felt it looked a bit familiar.

"Huh? I won?"

"Hm? What do you mean you won?"

Conan turned his head to look.

It really was!

Hattori Heiji had won a Dugong Arrow.

Conan looked at the tag in his hand twice, and suddenly felt a bit heartbroken.

Why is my luck so bad?

It's one thing not to be able to compare to Akaso Kaze, but even this dark-skinned kid is better than me.

"I wonder who the other two winners are," Hattori Heiji asked.

Conan looked around, "I think it should be Ms. Kuroe Naoko and Ms. Ebihara Sumi, whom we met today, right?"

"Ms. Kuroe Naoko is happily saying she won! As for Ms. Sumi, although she didn't say it out loud, looking at how happy she is, it's ten to one she won too."

Hattori Heiji raised his hand to check his watch.

"The Dugong Arrow will be awarded in a while. How about we go walk around the area now? Anyway, the investigation is at a stalemate, and we have to wait until the festival ends and Ms. Miyano is free."

Conan nodded, and the two walked out of the crowd.

At this moment, Akaso Kaze was using his Void Magic to watch Shimabukuro Kimie, who was removing her disguise inside the room.

This girl's level is quite high.

Not only can she disguise her appearance, but she can also change her voice.

It's really not very "Conan-science."

Shimabukuro Kimie lifted her skirt and uncrossed her legs.

Two long, slender, fair legs immediately stretched out.

The girl frowned and rubbed them a few times, then suddenly looked up in surprise.

Her gaze met Akaso Kaze's, which actually gave the Onmyoji a start.

Shimabukuro Kimie looked around suspiciously, found nothing unusual, and lowered her head to continue rubbing.

Akaso Kaze couldn't help but frown slightly.

No one had ever discovered his Void Magic before; even Koizumi Akako didn't seem to have noticed it.

This girl might truly be a bit strange.

His train of thought was quickly interrupted.

Because Shimabukuro Kimie started changing her clothes.

Tsk tsk, the little shrine maiden's figure is really quite nice.

Akaso Kaze watched with an appreciative eye.

His gaze slowly became strange.

Shimabukuro Kimie had actually stripped completely, wearing only a black coat over her, covering her entire head.

Then, she slipped away from the window and ducked into a path in the woods.

The island was full of lush trees.

During the day, they formed a uniquely beautiful landscape.

But once night fell.

The entire forest appeared eerie and terrifying, making one's hair stand on end!

Walking in the woods, Shimabukuro Kimie's mind was in turmoil.

She couldn't help but recall everything from the past.

It was also the night of the festival three years ago.

The shrine warehouse suddenly caught fire!

At the very last moment, she received a call from her mother inside the burning building!

"Kimie, I'll leave the festival to you from now on!"

"Mom loves this little island so much!"

"So, please don't let the Longevity Hag die just like that!"

Even now, Shimabukuro Kimie clearly remembered every word her mother had said at the time!

Therefore, after her mother passed away, Shimabukuro Kimie took over the heavy burden and diligently played the role of the Longevity Hag.

Appearing before everyone as the Longevity Hag from time to time.

Continuing this legend that belonged solely to Mermaid Island!

In Shimabukuro Kimie's view, her life would probably pass peacefully in this way!

Until a week ago, Kadowaki Saori lost her Dugong Arrow.

Fearing retaliation from the mermaid, she panicked and found Shimabukuro Kimie to ask for another one!

Shimabukuro Kimie knew very well that the Dugong Arrow had no effect as rumored, and the mermaid's retaliation was even more of a fairy tale!

So she smiled and told the truth, comforting the other party.

But she didn't expect that what Kadowaki Saori said next would leave her completely stunned.

"If you won't give me a Dugong Arrow, then tell me where the mermaid's grave is!"

"I want to find that mermaid skeleton hidden by the Longevity Hag."

"I want to be like the Longevity Hag and live forever!"

"To be able to survive being engulfed by flames is truly amazing!"

In her excitement, Kadowaki Saori finally revealed a terrifying past event.

It turned out that three years ago, the fire in the shrine warehouse was not an accident at all, but a man-made event jointly created by her three good friends!

Because they didn't draw a Dugong Arrow at the festival.

The three of them, dead drunk, wanted to set a fire to burn the warehouse to vent their anger.

But after seeing the Longevity Hag, played by Shimabukuro Kimie's mother, walk into the warehouse, the three decided to change their plan slightly.

They wanted to see if the Longevity Hag was really immortal.

Just like that, Shimabukuro Kimie's mother died under the dissatisfaction and curiosity of the three!

Upon learning the truth, Shimabukuro Kimie collapsed.

Especially after Kadowaki Saori said such words without any remorse, both her heart and body underwent unspeakable changes.

From that day on, Shimabukuro Kimie began her revenge plan! Two.
