Chapter 190 The Mermaid Outside the Mourning Hall
After waiting for the person who came in to speak, everyone realized that the old hag who appeared had the same mission as the longevity woman they were looking for.

I have to say that when Guangyou saw this face, he immediately felt that the make-up was really high-quality, and the longevity woman who took off the makeup was indeed like an old witch. Her face was full of wrinkles, and her facial features seemed to be squeezed together. Together, her diminutive stature can really scare people.

Conan hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Grandma, I want to ask how you decided the number to draw the dugong arrow before."

Changshou Po didn't seem to hear Conan's question, and stood there calmly with a cane. Conan thought it was because he was old and his hearing was not good, but when he was depressed, Changshou Po replied: "Look. Depending on the situation, I sometimes use the numbers drawn in horse races."

Immediately she laughed herself, there were only a few teeth left in her mouth, Guangyou couldn't help helping the glasses that were about to fall off but didn't exist: "I'm in the same league as Uncle Mao Li, and I still insist on it at such an age." Betting on horses is also rare.”

Heiji also asked the question in his heart: "I would like to ask why you don't sell more dugong arrows."

This time, Changshou Po replied very quickly. She tore off her hair and said, "That's impossible. The hair I can use to tie those arrows is very limited."

"Great-grandmother, I've put away your bath water."

When Jun Hui's voice came from a distance, Changshou Po turned her head to everyone in the room and said, "I'm sorry, but if you have nothing important to do, I'm going to take a shower and go to sleep."

Conan hurriedly wanted to ask his next question, but Changshou Po ignored Conan directly, and said to He Ye inside: "By the way, the little girl with tied hair, the Dugong Arrow was originally a weapon that can exorcise evil spirits." If you let go of your precious arrow, the monster will build a nest on your body, and if you are a man, you will be buried in the ground and become a heartless ghost."

"If it is a woman, it will enter the water and become a mermaid that cannot speak, so I advise you to take it with you for a while."

After all, he left without looking back, leaning on his crutches.

Leaving only those unintelligible words, He Ye was also a little worried. It is estimated that among the people present, she was the one who believed in these superstitions the most.

After a few words of consolation by Pingci, Heye felt much better, and then everyone simply rested for a few hours before getting up and going to Shoumei's memorial service.

Fortunately, Heiji and Heye brought school uniforms when they came out this time. Although the occasion seemed a little out of place, it was better than the clothes they were wearing now.

After changing into dark clothes, a few people came to Shoumei's house. Although they were not familiar with the deceased, they just took this opportunity to learn about the island.

When everyone came to the mourning hall, Jun Hui had already arrived. Uncle Mao Li looked at Benzang who was kneeling over there, and asked in a low voice, "That Mr. Menxie didn't go back last night, right?"

Jun Hui nodded in response, "I heard that he drank with tourists in a tavern all night."

"What about Ms. Naoko? I obviously saw her name on the roster." Uncle Mori looked around, but he didn't find Naoko.

Xiaolan and Heye were about to go out to look for Naoko, they just pushed open the door, suddenly a thunderstorm came from the sky, the night sky was brightly illuminated, it came fiercely and went away quickly.

But in such an instant, Xiaolan seemed to see some horrified scene and froze in place. Seeing Xiaolan's dazed look, Heye thought that Xiaolan was afraid of thunder, and joked: "Xiaolan, you won't Are you afraid of thunder?"

Facing the joke with Ye, Xiaolan didn't react at all. She raised her finger and pointed to the direction outside the door: "There seems to be a person over there."

There was another thunder, this time He Ye also saw the figure outside the door, but only for a moment, neither He Ye nor Xiao Lan could see the figure's face clearly.

Heiji, attracted by the movement of the two, asked, "What's wrong?"

"It seems that someone is there."

Guangyou who also poked his head out, his eyes narrowed slightly, the figure sat on the ground slumped, his hands seemed to be hung on the net, then he shook his head: "Tsk, another 'dead mermaid'."

There were two consecutive thunderbolts. This time, everyone could see the figure's face clearly. Naoko who had disappeared was hung up on the Internet at some point, with her head lowered and her mouth open. He screamed very cooperatively.

Another person died, and the wake couldn't go on. All the guests were watching in the aisle, and only Uncle Mao Li, who was considered a professional, quickly borrowed a camera and went to take pictures of the scene.

Heiji and Conan were also observing the situation of the deceased and searching for clues. A row of footprints caught their attention. The shiny thing next to the footprints was picked up and found to be fish scales.

Just when a few people were brainstorming, the police in charge of this island finally arrived at the scene, a small place in Fukui, and Uncle Mori is not that famous yet.

A leading police officer saw several people near the scene and asked loudly, "Who are you? What are you doing?"

"We are investigating the case."

"This has nothing to do with you. This is the work of our Fukui County police." The leading police officer said a little excitedly.

Seeing the reaction, Guangyou always felt that the police officer was alive and excited, and at the same time felt a little funny that Uncle Mao Li's usually invincible face-scanning skills failed here.

Back in the corridor, after Xiaolan and Heye heard that the footprints disappeared at the seaside and there were fish scales next to the footprints, Heye, who had been brainwashed by the mermaid all day today, covered his mouth and shouted: "This time the murderer will not be Mermaid!"

"How is it possible." Heiji couldn't help laughing, "How could a mermaid still wear boots, not even shoes?"

Heiji explained: "The murderer may have just walked along the coastline and came to this fishing net and then walked back along the coastline."

After asking about the situation, it was found that everyone said that they had never seen Naoko. Although the murderer could not be confirmed, what is known so far is that Naoko's dugong arrow was taken away.

Jun Hui squeezed her chin, and said worriedly: "It seems that Shazhi also disappeared after the Dugong's arrow disappeared. Could it be that she also?"

At this moment, an aunt next to her interjected, "Are you talking about Sazhi? I saw her appear near Mermaid Waterfall yesterday morning."

After this aunt, an uncle also said that he had seen Saori appear in the forest near the waterfall from a distance.

What surprised Guangyou was Benzo's attitude. When his daughter's life and death were unknown, he was still drinking. He didn't know whether he was big-hearted or he didn't care about this daughter at all.

Facing Uncle Mori's question, Benzo said plainly, "I just hope she doesn't become a mermaid like that dead girl."

Guangyou scratched his head, with some doubts in his heart: "What happened to the mermaid, what does it have to do with Naoko?"
