"Ye Sang, I'm not looking for you, it's her. This is Yuan Shanhe Ye, she is your fan." Xiaolan immediately introduced the girl next to her to Ye Siyu.

After hearing Xiaolan's introduction, Ye Siyu immediately searched for information about the other party in his memory.

Toyama Kazuha, a second-year high school student at Osaka Kaigao Academy, the only daughter of Chief Inspector Toyama Ginjiro, the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters Criminal Division, and the childhood sweetheart of Kansai high school student detective Hattori Heiji.

"Hello, Miss Yuanshan, I am Ye Siyu." After knowing the other party's identity, Ye Siyu smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Ye, it's nice to meet you. I have watched every magic show of yours, especially the confession of intention the day before yesterday. It was so romantic." Yuan Shan and Ye said excitedly, and at the same time they took out their Let Ye Siyu sign the notebook.

Ye Siyu has not been idle during this period. In order to attract more attention, he produced a magic show specially promoted for him. It can be said that Ye Siyu's current reputation is definitely better than that of Xiaolan's father, Mouri Kogoro, a famous detective. Much bigger, not to mention that Ye Siyu's appearance is absolutely unique in the world. Those little freshmen in the original world who have no ability can attract countless fans by their appearance, let alone Ye Siyu, a person with real ability, then The ability to attract fans is even more amazing.

He could easily be mobbed by fans whenever he walked on the street. If Ye Siyu hadn't been able to use mental cues to disperse those fans, he would have had trouble even going out.

"Mr. Ye, thank you so much!" Yuan Shan and Ye, who received Ye Siyu's signature, carefully put the notebook into their small bag, and then began to ask Ye Siyu some questions about magic. They were completely obsessed with it. Looks like a girl.

"Tch, he's just a deceptive magician. What's so good about him? He's far worse than a detective. Don't you think so, Conan?"

"That's right, that's right."

At this moment, a burst of complaints came from the side.

I saw Conan and a dark-skinned guy who looked like an African coming in at some point.

"Heiji! What did you say! Mr. Ye is a very powerful magician!" When the African belittled Ye Siyu, Toyama and Ye glared at each other dissatisfied.

"What I'm telling you is the truth.", the African man known as Heiji muttered. In his opinion, magicians and other professions that rely on blindness to please others are better than his favorite detective who can help others restore the truth. Not even close.

"Conan, is this African boy your brother?" Ye Siyu lowered her head and asked Conan.

He already knew who this black boy was, that was Hattori Heiji, who was childhood sweetheart classmate of Kazuha Toyama and was known as "Kudo of Kanto, Hattori of Kansai" together with Kudo Shinichi.

"Hey, who is the African boy you are talking about?" Heiji was originally very unhappy that the person he liked admired such a handsome guy like Ye Siyu, but now he heard the other person say that he was from Africa, it made him angry. He hated others the most. Talk about your own skin.

"Who else here has the darkest skin besides you?" Ye Siyu asked.

Although Hattori Heiji is a plot character, Ye Siyu will not spoil this guy. If he ridicules others, he must be prepared to be ridiculed back.

"You!" Hattori Heiji became even more angry when he saw Ye Siyu calling him by name. He wanted to argue with Ye Siyu to prove that he was not African and had a healthy skin color.

"Heiji! That's enough! Apologize to Mr. Ye quickly!" But before he finished speaking, Toyama and Ye beside him exploded.

Although Ye Siyu talked about the skin color issue that Hattori Heiji disliked discussing the most, in her opinion, Ye Siyu was not wrong. On the contrary, Hattori Heiji was at fault first, so she did not speak for Hattori Heiji.

"He Ye, you... I'm not wrong, why do you say... Humph! Conan, let's go, don't be the same as this guy." Seeing that Yuan Shan and Ye didn't help him, he still wanted to give Ye Siyu this The annoying guy apologized, and Hattori Heiji was so angry that his lungs exploded, but when he saw Toyama and Ye Na, if you dare to say one more word, I will never end it with you, all the words were choked in his throat, and in the end he could only coldly He snorted and pulled Conan, who was planning to watch the show, out of the cafe.

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry. This is how he usually behaves. He didn't mean to belittle magicians. Please don't mind." Looking at Hattori Heiji's leaving figure, Toyama and Ye immediately apologized.

"It's okay, it's just a kid who is jealous. How could I blame him?" Ye Siyu waved his hands indifferently. He knew very well why Hattori Heiji said such things. He obviously wanted to show it in front of Toyama and Ye. Show your own strength.

This is the most common thing that men do in front of the women they like, in order to highlight their superiority. However, this approach can easily arouse women's disgust.

"Jealous?" Xiaolan tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"Being jealous of Miss Yuanshan." Ye Siyu pointed at Yuanshan and Ye smiled.

"Huh?" Ye Siyu's words caused Yuanshan and Ye's originally fair faces to be instantly covered with a layer of red clouds.

"Hehe." Seeing this, Xiaolan also understood what Ye Siyu meant.

"Did Miss Yuanshan come here to have fun?" Ye Siyu didn't elaborate on this aspect and immediately changed the subject.

"No, Heye Heping is here to invite my father to investigate a case." Xiaolan shook her head and explained.

"Oh? What's the case? Let's talk about it." Ye Siyu continued.

"It's like this... I originally invited Heiji to go, but at the beginning of the letter, Heiji was called Kudo Shinichi, so we came here to find Kudo Shinichi... Who knew he wasn't here, so we invited Xiaolan's father Mr. Maori, let’s go to the American Island together..." Yuan Shan and Ye explained to Ye Siyu the reason why they came to Tokyo.

"American Island... Mermaid..." After hearing Yuan Shan and Ye's explanation, Ye Siyu immediately searched for the details of their case in his mind.

If there is no mistake, the case this time should be about the disappearance of the mermaid.

In this case, Conan, Mouri Kogoro, Xiaolan, Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Haha went to a place called America Island, where there is an annual mermaid festival, where a 130-year-old longevity woman uses her own hair or something. Make three arrows, and each person gets a number plate. Whoever is drawn will be given an arrow. It is said that he can live forever.

Then He Ye won the lottery, and two other people also won, but one of the winners was hanged in front of the waterfall. Later, another body appeared on the beach, and one was also found in the warehouse. A corpse.

Conan and Hattori Heiji launched an investigation.

In the end, it was discovered that the murderer was actually the granddaughter of Changshou Po. She played two roles, the old lady and herself. As for the reason why she killed those people, they were all good friends who grew up with her.

This group of people really wanted to get the arrow and wanted to see if Changshou Po would die, so they set fire to the warehouse. However, the Changshou Po at that time was actually the girl's mother, so her mother was He was burned alive in the warehouse, triggering a series of events.

However, compared to the cause of this case, Ye Siyu was more concerned about the mermaid.

If Conan was most likely to involve supernatural cases, he could think of two cases. One was the current disappearance of the mermaid, and the other was the Kiriten Dog incident.

"American Island? I've heard about that place too. I'm going to take a break during this time, so why don't I go with you guys?" Ye Siyu said.

Although it is not clear whether mermaids really exist, it is not troublesome to investigate. Who knows whether we will really discover the supernatural power of this world.

"Mr. Ye, are you going too? That would be great!" Yuan Shan and Ye jumped up excitedly when they heard that Ye Siyu, their idol, was also going.

Xiaolan on the side also showed a smile. After the Yueying Island incident, Xiaolan had a very good impression of Ye Siyu.

Of course, this kind of good feeling is not between a man and a woman, but between friends. She feels that Ye Siyu is like a big brother, giving her a complete sense of security.



"Kudo, why did this guy come here?"

The next day, on the ferry to the American Island, Hattori Heiji looked at Ye Siyu, who was chatting and laughing with Toyama and Ye You not far away, as if he had eaten a fly.

"I heard Xiaolan said that he came here by himself." Conan, who was standing with Hattori Heiji, also looked at Ye Siyu with depressed eyes and said, so in addition to Toyama and Ye, there was Xiaolan next to Ye Siyu. She He was also chatting and laughing with Ye Siyu.

It can be said that any man will have an extremely strong sense of crisis when seeing a woman he likes talking to Ye Siyu, even a straight man like Conan who is not very sensitive to love and love is no exception.

"Mr. Ye, do you think there are really mermaids in this world?" Yuan Shan and Ye suddenly asked as they got closer to the American island.

"I don't know, but I hope so." Ye Siyu replied.

"Do you, Ye Sang, also want to live forever?" Xiaolan asked curiously.

"No, I have achieved immortality. I don't need the help of the mermaid. I need the mermaid to help me confirm the true situation of this world." Ye Siyu said while looking at the American Island in the distance.

"Haha, Mr. Ye, you really know how to joke." Ye Siyu's words made Yuan Shan and Ye giggle. She thought Ye Siyu was teasing them.

"What I said is the truth. I am really immortal." Ye Siyu shook his head.

With cosmic-level strength, Ye Siyu can survive until the universe is destroyed as long as he does not encounter a terrifying cosmic disaster or a powerful enemy.

However, Yuanshan and Ye obviously didn't believe Ye Siyu's words, so they asked a few more questions after bursting into laughter.

While chatting, the ferry had docked, and everyone went to the local village office to inquire about the client of this case, Menxie Saori.

However, what surprised Mouri Kogoro and others was that no one in the village office knew what was going on with Monkyo Saori, who was not on the American island.

"What? You said Miss Menxie Saori's whereabouts are unknown?"

"Yes, it seems she didn't go to work three days ago." The village office staff nodded.

"Three days from now, wouldn't that be when that letter was just sent home?" Hattori Heiji analyzed, rubbing his chin.

"But the neighbors are wondering whether she took a boat to go to the mainland for fun. She has done this before.", the staff continued to answer.

"Mr. Xiaolin, it's time to go." At this time, the staff on the side shouted.

"Oh, it's coming!" the staff responded, and then said apologetically to Ye Siyu and others: "Sorry, I have to go to the island to prepare for the celebration."

"What kind of celebration?" Mouri Kogoro asked curiously.

"Today happens to be the day when our island holds the annual dugong celebration. If you still want to know anything, you can go to the souvenir shop on the corner where the yarn weaver works and ask the boss.", the staff said, and then Left with other staff.

Seeing this, Mouri Kogoro and others had no choice but to go to the souvenir shop mentioned by the staff to investigate the situation.

Along the way, Ye Siyu did not restrain his mental power and kept covering the surrounding ten meters, trying to find signs of supernatural power.

However, the results were not satisfactory. Ye Siyu did not find any people or things that might be related to supernatural powers. This was completely a tourist destination created with legends as a gimmick.

In the end, Mouri Kogoro and others learned from the owner of the souvenir shop that the reason for the sudden disappearance of the Monkyo Saori Association was that she lost the dugong arrow that was lost in the dugong celebration last year, and hid out of fear of retaliation.

"There are no mermaids in this world." Mouri Kogoro complained.

"There are indeed mermaids in the world." As soon as Mouri Kogoro finished speaking, a voice came, and a clerk with a mushroom head suddenly said.

"It's you, Naoko.", the souvenir shop owner greeted.

"Because there are real cases in the world of people who have become immortal after eating mermaid meat, and the dugong arrow made by the hair grown by the longevity woman using her mind power can achieve immortality no matter who falls into it. Sweet dream, Saori lost such an important thing, of course she would be afraid and escape from the island, it is human nature." The woman named Naoko said confidently, and then left Organize the goods in the store.

"Who is she?" Mouri Kogoro asked in confusion.

"Naoko is a friend who grew up with Saori.", the boss explained.

"Then who is the longevity woman she is talking about?" Mouri Kogoro continued to ask.

"She is the protagonist of today's celebration and the symbol of our island, the old lady Shimabukuro.", the boss replied.
