221. Regulator

"I didn't expect it to be so big!" Azumi exclaimed.

As the fishing boat approached, a corner of rock under the setting sun gradually revealed its true appearance in front of everyone. From a distance, it was just a small sharp corner. When I got closer, I realized the majesty.

"Yes, but when I think of the body of a huge sea dragon below, I still feel a little scary." Mitsuhiko said.

The sea breeze was gentle, Haibara Ai held his hair around his ears and whispered: "It is probably only children who believe these legends."

Hearing the emotion in her tone and the little nostalgia for innocence, Chen Xing said, "Aren't you a child now?"

"That's right." Haibara Ai pillowed on his arm, his voice heavy.

"Then do you believe it?" Chen Xing asked.

Haibara Ai couldn't help but look at him, obviously not understanding why he asked this. It was obviously a boring question, and she was not a child in her heart, so how could she still believe such a legend?

Chen Xing didn't say anything, just looked at the cheerful Arimi and others with a smile.

The sunset was on his face, warm and peaceful, Haibara Ai tilted his head, and for a moment the irritability in her heart slowly subsided, and she would carefully look at the scenery in front of her and feel the relaxed and happy feeling.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Suddenly, a speedboat sailed by the side of the ship, and someone shouted loudly to the side: "It's a rock there. If you get close to it, you will be punished by the sea dragon, and the ship will sink!"

And his companions around him said, "It's okay, they are all children."

"It seems that not only children can believe it." Chen Xing lowered his head.

Haibara Ai raised his face and hummed.

However, the speedboat did not lean over or continued to move forward. After communicating with the few people above, they turned to leave.

"Who are they? What are they here to do?" Mitsuhiko said in confusion.

"It seems like I'm looking for something." Azumi said.

The boatman Ida looked at the leaving fishing boat and his tone was not polite. "Recently, some divers who have been around a certain president's daughter have appeared here all day, which has prevented us from fishing. It is very annoying. Although this sea belongs to everyone, we should consider it for some fishermen."

"I suddenly had a sense of intuition." Chen Xing said.

"What intuition?" Conan came over at some point.

Haibara Ai also looked up curiously.

"It's here." Chen Xing's chin blinked towards Yijiaoyan and said confidently: "What will happen."

"..." Conan.

Shouldn't I come and listen?

After docking, Ida waved his hand, "Okay, this is Yijiaoyan, you guys have fun!"

"Okay!" The three little ones jumped down quickly after the boat was moored.

...

"When you get closer, it looks like a corner, but it is actually just a rock with pits everywhere, right?" Mitsuhiko looked at the towering rock in front of her, feeling a little disappointed.

"Yes, it seems that the sea water is seriously eroded." Conan put his hands in his pockets, and he was serious and semi-produced.

"Look at you, the sunset!" Azumi's attention was obviously not here. She pointed to the sunset, "Before the sunset disappear, let's take a photo together?"

"Okay, just take a picture with my phone." Subaru Otsuya walked over and said.

"Then please." Yuan Tai ran over and took the place immediately.

"Everyone, arrange it quickly." Azumi pushed Chen Xing forward happily.

The few people stood up quickly, leaning against the setting sun, and the horizon was below their feet, and they each posed. However, Ai Haibara just noticed that Chen Xing, who was standing behind him, was standing straight like wood.

"Are you nervous?" she asked.

"I just haven't taken photos for a long time," said Chen Xing.

This was a long time, more than ten years, and it reminded him of the scenes when he was a child when he was taking photos, but there would not be many people with him like now.

Haibara Ai probably blew some things from Conan, so she just paused and thought about saying something, either comforting or changing the subject.

But at this moment, Okayama Subaru, who was holding his cell phone to take pictures of everyone, suddenly walked towards this side, walked straight to her, and leaned over slightly.

Haibara Ai's whole body froze, his eyes trembled at the person in front of him, and an unstoppable panic surged in his heart.

But immediately, a warm palm fell on her thin shoulders. Although there was no word coming, it was enough to calm her mind.

Subaru Okayama glanced slightly and said, "There seems to be some words engraved on the rock behind you."

Before Haibara Ai had reacted, Chenyu gently pulled her shoulder and brought her to her side, while Conan had long been staring at the rock.

"Mackerel, carp, snapper, halibut." He read it softly.

"Is it just engraved with the name to commemorate the fish I have caught?" Mitsuhiko guessed.

"How could anyone do such a thing? It's so too much." Ayumi said.

"Come on, come and see, something seems to be stuck in the cracks of the rock!" Yuan Tai shouted from the other side: "It's so tight that I can't pull it out."

"It seems like it was a fin on diving, right?" Mitsuhiko walked over.

"It looks very new." Ayumi said.

Conan, who was standing beside him, thought for a moment, glanced left and right, and ran along the road next to him.

"Where are you going, Conan?" Yuanta asked.

Then, just behind the rock, everyone found a woman sitting there in a wetsuit, with an oxygen cylinder and a regulator beside her.

"Is she asleep?" Mitsuhiko said curiously.

"No, she is dead." Conan strodes the woman's neck and shook her head.

"What?" The three little ones were shocked.

"From the degree of stiffness, I have been dead for several hours. From the point of becoming very dry and the skin is loose, it should be dehydration." Conan frowned and thought, and suddenly saw the lipstick on the woman's lips.

Chen Xing looked down at his feet, and the adjuster's mouth was very clean.

Subaru Okayama squatted aside at some point and glanced at the regulator.

"Maybe something went wrong during the diving. I couldn't continue swimming. I finally got here, but no one noticed her." Haibara Ai said.

Mitsuhiko agreed: "This is a corner rock that will sink the ship, and of course no one will get close to it."

"No matter what, let's carry this sister onto the boat first?" Yuan Tai said unbearable.

Azumi nodded, "It's so pitiful to keep her like this."

Subaru Okayama said, "No, if you want to move the body, it will not be too late to wait until the police arrive here."

"Police?" Mitsuhiko said in surprise: "Can you say this person..."

"Yes, maybe someone put her here on purpose." Conan wrapped the regulator in a handkerchief and said, "Look at the regulator that absorbs oxygen in the bottle. This mouthpiece is not dirty, but she is wearing lipstick, so if she has used it, there should be lipstick on the regulator."

"What's going on?" Azumi whispered.

"Perhaps someone replaced it for some purpose." Conan said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it was replaced by the murderer who passed by again in these few hours."

...

The police arrived soon, and the Kanagawa Prefecture Policeman Shigegu Yokogami.

"Although it is not certain that we don't move to the land for detailed investigation, it seems that the body is stiff and the turbid corneal condition should have died five or six hours ago. Then, from the dry mouth and the inelasticity of the skin, the cause of death is dehydration," said Dr.
