Chapter 718: The mermaid who fell into the mortal world

~3 min read 588 words

"What? The Longevity Hag?"

"How is that possible?"

"She's so old, how could she kill several people?"

The tourists from out of town immediately became noisy.

The police officer from Fukui Prefecture frowned and asked: "Akaso-sama, did you make a mistake? The Longevity Hag is already one hundred and thirty years old this year, she can't do anything at all, how could she be the murderer?"

Akaso Kaze asked with a smile: "Mr. Kobayashi, you should have noticed it long ago, right?"

Kobayashi Masaki hesitated and didn't speak.

The tourists also felt something was wrong.

Looking around, all the local villagers were strangely not refuting.

Knowing the inside story, they had actually vaguely guessed the truth, but just didn't dare to believe it.

Seeing them like this, Shimabukuro Kimie had no luck left.

Onmyoji-sama was right; the villagers on the island really knew about her disguise all along.

It's ridiculous that she thought she had fooled everyone for so many years.

Shimabukuro Kimie, disguised as the Longevity Hag, slowly walked out of the crowd and came to the edge of the cliff.

She chuckled, stretched out her aged hand, pinched her cheeks, and tore them gently.

Under everyone's gaze, a human skin mask was torn off the Longevity Hag's face, revealing a young and beautiful face.

Shimabukuro Kimie removed her disguise, untied her leggings, and stood up.

"As expected of Onmyoji-sama, I didn't expect my disguise to be discovered by you."

The tourists' jaws were about to drop.

One by one, they looked at the person changing in front of them, dumbfounded.

"Onmyoji-sama is right, Sumi, Naoko, and Saori were all killed by me."

Conan and Hattori Heiji climbed up the cliff panting.

Hearing Shimabukuro Kimie's words, the two almost fainted.

Bastard!

We thought we could get ahead this time, how come we were cut off again?

You Onmyoji, do you have any martial ethics?

This time, we two have been investigating day and night for several days!

"Akaso-san, evidence, what evidence do you have!"

Hattori Heiji said unconvinced.

I don't believe it, you didn't even go to the scene, and you can produce solid evidence?

Shimabukuro Kimie turned her head to look at the two detectives and took out a small bag.

"This is the rope I used to strangle Naoko, this is the clothes I wore when I killed Sumi, stained with blood, well, it seems my fingerprints were left on the bloodstains."

"This is the match I used when I set fire to the warehouse. This is my mobile phone, which has the call recordings of when I made appointments with Sumi and Naoko to meet."

Shimabukuro Kimie introduced them one by one, piling a pile of evidence in front of everyone, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

Well, now the evidence is solid, Shimabukuro Kimie is definitely the murderer, no mistake!

Everyone looked at Akaso Kaze with admiring eyes.

Truly the strongest Onmyoji-sama in Tokyo, the nemesis of evil!

Look at the criminal exposed by him; not only did she plead guilty, but she even handed over the evidence voluntarily.

Conan and Hattori Heiji had black lines on their foreheads.

There's such a thing?

The criminal desperately pleads guilty and brings out the evidence herself?

Why can't we encounter such a good thing?

This is too un-Conan-science!

Shimabukuro Kimie turned back and bowed deeply to the villagers.

"I'm sorry everyone, the Longevity Hag has guarded Mermaid Island for so many years, and it's finally time to say goodbye."

"Thank you all for your care over the years."
