The sky was gloomy and a steamer was sailing on the sea.

The blue sea is endless, and occasionally a few seagulls fly over from above. Conan kimono Hattori Heiji leans against the railing on the deck, and Kogoro Mori is smoking a cigarette, a little unhappy.

"So why should I come to Fukui with you?"

"What does it matter? I pay for the travel expenses anyway, so you guys are just traveling!" Hattori Heiji smiled and stroked Conan's head, "And I think Conan should really want to go and play."

"Okay, which island do we want to go to now?"

Hattori Heiji looked at a small island in the sea from afar, "It is called the American Island. Although it is a small island, people around here call it another name - Mermaid Island. It is the small island where mermaids live."

"The island where mermaids live?"

"Yes, I also heard that there was an old lady on that island who specialized in eating mermaid meat for immortality."

After hearing what the Watson said, Xiaolan suddenly remembered the information, "I have also heard of this. You are talking about the old lady who caused a topic on TV because of immortality!"

"That's right, I just hope to be as young and beautiful as her forever, so that I will follow you this time." He Ye was in a happy mood while holding Xiaolan's shoulders.

"Brother Heiji, who is the person who entrusted you to come here?"

"Does it be that I want to entrust you to find a mermaid?" Kogoro Mouri felt that this is very likely.

"No, I only wrote a few simple sentences on the entrustment letter. It can be seen that it was written in a hurry, and it says: [The mermaid is about to be killed, so save her!]"

"The mermaid... is about to be killed?" Kogoro Mouri was shocked. Such strange stories can always make people goose bump inadvertently.

Conan yawned boredly.

"How can there be mermaids in the world? Mermaids are about to be killed or something? Only fools will believe it."

Hattori Conan picked up the man and walked aside, "Actually, I don't believe in the mermaids, it just makes me very surprised. Although the letter sent by the client was written with my name on the envelope, the words "Hello Kudo Shinichi" at the beginning of the envelope were written with the words "Hello Kudo Shinichi."

"You have to thank me! I guess what this commission may have to do with you, so I brought you here."

Conan frowned and immediately put aside the trivial matter of being picked up, "Did you call the client but recognize this?"

"Some. The sender left his cell phone number on it. When he contacted the phone for the first time, he was hung up immediately. But I have always remembered the sound from the other end very clearly. Apart from the sound of the waves, it was just a woman's moan."

"After that? No matter how I call, I didn't answer..."

......

Many tourists on Mermaid Island were unexpectedly?                                                          

He looked up at the sky? The gloomy sky was covered with dark clouds, and the sound of waves hit the reefs? The sea breeze blowing from the ocean made people feel a little cold.

"It looks like it's going to rain."

"Wouldn't the dugong celebration not be held that night?" Yuanzi felt a little regretful. After coming to the island, she wanted to participate in it.

"Not necessarily, the weather changes by the sea are always impermanent. The last second is cloudy? The next second is clear and clear sky is also possible." Kurakawa Shin looked around? The lively crowd was not affected by the cloudy weather at all. "We happened to encounter the annual celebration on this island. This celebration that only once a year will definitely be held as usual even if it rains."

"But there are so many mermaid products on this island!" Yuanzi picked up a cute mermaid keychain from the small shop on the side of the road? "At the beginning, I just wanted to come and eat seafood? I didn't expect the mermaid products here to be so popular."

"Oh? Have you not done your homework before you come?"

Before coming to the island, Shun Kawakawa checked the information about it, and even smelled something extraordinary on the island.

Whether it is the widely circulated legend of the mermaid or the greed for immortality, it is all very interesting things.

Yuanzi shook her head awkwardly. She wanted to change the topic at that time. She just heard her family mention that seafood on American island is good? She said it casually, and she didn't know much about this island itself.

She clearly invited her? After arriving on the island, it was Kurakawa Shun who was working as a guide. She knew nothing about the legends on the island.

Shun Kawakawa tells her the legend of the island? “It is said that there is a longevity woman on this island who eats mermaid meat and is immortal. During the annual celebrations, the longevity woman will use the hair grown by her mind to make three dugong arrows? It is said that people with dugong arrows will live forever.”

"What an old-fashioned legend..." If anyone who gets the arrow can live forever? Then how many people will be able to live forever after so many years of celebrations are held?

The two walked to a stall, and Shangchuan Shun picked up a talisman embroidered with a mermaid showing immortality and put it in front of her, shaking it, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to live forever?"

"I don't want to." Yuanzi answered very simply.

"oh?"

"What does immortality mean? I live forever, and then I watch my friends, relatives, lovers and lovers grow old and die, while I live alone in this world. I don't want this immortality at all."

This feeling of loneliness that has disappeared little by little with the world makes me feel sad when I think about it.

Shangchuan's eyebrows and eyes were bent slightly, and he put the amulet back in place. He looked at the tourists coming and going, and his tone was quite emotional, "But even so, there are still many people who flock to it..."

Even to achieve this goal, the organization did not know how much manpower and material resources it had deployed. Before the things hidden in the shadow were truly revealed, no one knew what kind of hideous beast it was.

"Hehe, it's not our business! Immortality is something that older people desire. We are still young, so we probably won't feel that longing for life."

The garden picked up the selection at the stall and took a lot of specialties related to mermaids. "When I go back, I will give Xiaolan and the others these gifts to travel."

"I forgot if you don't say it." Kurakawa Shin picked up some possessive talismans that predicted peace at the stall, counting how he could give it to others, "Those should be enough."

Yuanzi tilted her head, "Why only take possession talismans?"

"Because I don't know what they will like, so I'd just give a talisman to mean peace."
