On the side, Conan and Haihara Ai exchanged glances.
Later, the two came to the storage room of diving supplies together.
"Did you and Brother Gengyi find anything?"
As Conan asked, he came to the cupboard where the clothes were placed and rummaged through things that might be evidence.
(?へ?.)Eh~
Come to think of it, if the person who did this was not a primary school student but a high school student, the behavior would be quite abnormal...
Haiyuan Ai squinted at a certain detective with a look of disgust and said:
"We found some messy shoe prints in the backyard where we wash the diving equipment, but Brother Geng said that alone can't prove anything."
"Well, that's what he said..."
Conan pondered for a moment, took out his cell phone, turned around and handed it over, saying, "To be on the safe side, I'd better trouble you to make another trip and help me take a photo of the shoe prints. I also need to quickly investigate the clues in this room."
"No need, Brother Gengyi has already taken the photo."
Hui Yuan Ai waved her hand to refuse and reminded:
"Hey, that's not the point. Do you feel that your current behavior is very contradictory? You can't reveal your true identity, but you can't help but show it here all the time. And aren't you doubting him? Why don't you just put this aside? Let him handle the case?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Conan froze obviously as he searched for his diving suit:
"If it were in the past, I would probably say that Brother Gengyi's method of solving crimes is too simple and crude, and it might lead to unjust, false, and wrongful convictions. But now..."
He pondered for a few seconds, and then said:
"Maybe I don't want to lose to him all the time, especially when it comes to reasoning."
A strange desire to win, but fortunately Brother Geng is not an enemy... Haiyuan Ai sighed deeply in his heart, then yawned and said:
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to worry about you. I've been either riding in the car or on the road since this morning. I'm a little tired and I'm going to go back to the B&B to rest later."
…
Just when Conan and Haihara Ai were communicating secretly in the storage room.
In the living room of the diving shop, Ye Gengyi also briefly learned about encountering sharks while diving from Yamaguchi Kimiko's mouth.
The location where the treasure hunter was attacked was in the deeper waters south of the underwater palace...
As Conan analyzed, the murderer used air pressure to cause the plastic bag containing fish blood to leak, thus attracting the sharks.
But there is no way to control the specific time. All the murderer can predict in advance is the depth of the dive.
In other words, his purpose is to prevent treasure hunters from finding the treasure hidden in the underwater palace.
The treasure-keeping sect of Shenhai Island?
Descendants of those two female pirates?
Or maybe he wanted to seize the treasure for himself, but he didn't have the exact clues yet, so he tried to interfere with or even kill other treasure hunters... the head of the tourism section... Iwanaga Jouji.
No hatred;
There is no grudge...there is just pure greed.
If the facts are the same as my guess, then this plan to study the palm marks will probably fail again.
came to this conclusion.
Ye Gengyi's interest in solving the case suddenly dropped by half, and his thoughts automatically switched to treasure hunting.
Although gold and silver are the two materials used in the production of props in the lowest amount compared to other materials, if they are antiques, their value will be at least ten or even dozens of times higher...
"Xiaolan, Yuanzi, Xiaoai and Conan, please take care of them. Well... if nothing happens, go back to the B&B to rest. I'll go look elsewhere."
After Ye Geng said hello to the two girls, he walked out of the diving shop.
"Phew...finally left."
Yamaguchi Kimiko breathed a long sigh of relief. After noticing the looks from three people, including Mabuchi Chinatsu, she said depressedly:
"What? Don't you think it's very oppressive? He's quite handsome, but... I was stared at and asked questions by him just now. I feel like meeting a shark in the sea is nothing more than this."
"Listen to what you said..."
Ma Yuan Qianxia held her chin with one hand and murmured: "It does feel like this."
Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko looked at each other and did not answer the call in a tacit understanding.
Is there any way to point out Ye Gengyi's identity as an expert from the Technical Association at this time? Doesn't it mean that we think there is something wrong with your diving shop?
Sigh... Why do we always encounter murder cases every time we go out with detectives and experts from the Technical Association?
…
"Ah sneeze..."
Ye Gengyi, who was riding his bicycle towards the coast, suddenly sneezed.
Caught a cold?
He lowered his riding speed.
Let Ye Xiaobai control the nanorobot to conduct a test on his respiratory tract.
The results show everything is fine.
"strangeness……"
Ye Gengyi muttered silently to himself and went straight to the shade of a tree closest to the sea.
Looking into the distance, you can see Norichijima Island hazy in the mist.
Ye Geng held his hand empty, and the electric shock gloves and a dark box instantly reorganized into particles and appeared.
Inside is a semi-automatic diving suit and matching oxygen equipment.
Originally, he was planning to use it when the ship sank, but now it seems that the radiation range of Conan's 'Death Halo' this time should be on the island.
Ye Gengyi used both hands to grab his clothes and diving suit respectively, and used the particle function of the storage compartment to quickly change clothes.
After switching flexibly, he came to the beach and jumped into the water.
Quickly dive to 20 meters.
The originally scattered fish have become denser.
Ye Gengyi had no intention of appreciating the seabed scenery, and directly started the turbocharger on his back. He swam towards Noraichi Island like an arrow off the string.
When we arrived at the seabed cliff, the surrounding light became darker and darker.
You can vaguely see the remains of stone blocks washed away by the undercurrent, constantly floating in the winding and irregular sea water.
Ye Gengyi continued to swim forward.
The water waves brought up were like a hand lifting the fog, gradually revealing the palace sleeping on the seabed.
However, the closer you get, the less you can see the entire building.
Especially on the south side of the palace, about 60 meters away, there were actually four sharks circling and hunting nearby.
It seems that he is not ready to leave for a while.
Ye Gengyi raised his arm and pointed it there.
...Novice, assist aiming, calculate water flow and resistance.
[Received, sir, it is being calibrated. There is no correction range for the judged angle. It has been locked...Do you want to shoot? 】
Um.
As Ye Gengyi's heartbeat fell.
A cylindrical bullet that looks like a rocket, with two propellers installed vertically and horizontally in the center, spins at high speed and shoots at one of the lucky sharks.
3 seconds later.
The bullet accurately penetrated its mouth.
But nothing happened.
The four sharks were also stunned.
Just when they were about to swim over and greet this strange visitor from the bottom of the sea.
The sudden change.
Just then, the shark that swallowed the bullet suddenly rose up like a balloon.
Immediately afterwards, a white mass of unknown substance emerged directly from its mouth. After contacting a large area of sea water, it expanded rapidly out of control.
In an instant, it occupied a space of dozens of meters in that sea area.
"It's slower than expected. If I'm lucky and doesn't enter the stomach, I can save a life..."
Ye Gengyi didn't pay attention to that side anymore, bent down and continued to swim towards the palace.
