Conan: Top succubus, crazy CP

Chapter 852: There is no more Shimabukuro Kimie in the world

The noise next door was getting louder and louder.

The creaking sound of tatami, suppressed breathing, the sticky sound of skin touching skin...

Xiao Ai finally couldn't bear it anymore and threw away the quilt.

"enough!"

She sat up angrily, walked towards the door expressionlessly, then hugged the little Eevee who was peeping with relish into her arms, and turned back to the tatami.

"I'll sleep with you tonight," she said coldly.

Yingying: "Eh?!" (looks confused)

It blinked innocently and its little paws moved restlessly in Xiaoai's arms.

Xiao Ai closed her eyes and thought with gritted teeth:

——Wait till tomorrow morning, I will teach these two a lesson!

In the fish tank, the empress, who was placed back on the cabinet, snorted coldly and swam gracefully to the other side of the fish tank with her back to them.

——Oh, incompetent wife.

——It’s shameful that I can’t even control my own husband.

"Gurgle gurgle..." (blows bubbles of contempt)

..........

At three o'clock in the morning, the night on Mermaid Island was still dark.

After having a full midnight snack, Hanyu Kusunoki walked out of the hotel refreshed, with a furry baby lying on his shoulder. The man and the Eevee stretched lazily in the cool night breeze.

"Ying~" Yingying rubbed his sleepy eyes with his little paws, tilted his head with a gossipy look, and looked at Hanyu Nan curiously.

"Hmm? You're asking Master?" Hanyu Kusunoki rubbed its little head with a smile, "Master lost and is taking a rest."

Well...it was still a miserable failure.

"Bu Yi!" Yingying seemed to understand what Hanyu Kusunoki meant in seconds. An expression of "I understand" appeared on her face. Her little head nodded seriously, looking very cute.

Hanyu Kusunoki laughed and walked towards the shrine.

Although it was already late at night, there were still many people on the streets of Mermaid Island. The deaths of Sumi Ebihara and Naoko Kuroe cast a strange atmosphere over the entire island.

The young islanders looked panicked and gathered together to talk in low voices, while the older villagers were mostly silent. When faced with police inquiries, they just shook their heads and were unwilling to talk more.

Yes, the police finally came.

It wasn’t easy, it was almost dawn.

"Are you hungry?" Hanyu Nan rubbed the little head, "I'll take you for a midnight snack later."

"Buee!" (happy ipg)

The man and his pet walked leisurely on the street, in stark contrast to the hurried police and panicked villagers.

The policemen looked serious, searching for clues everywhere, while the villagers had fear on their faces and wandering eyes. The whole scene seemed chaotic and depressing.

The two great detectives, Hattori Heiji and Conan, were also busy investigating the clues at this time. When they turned around and saw Hanyu Kusunoki's leisurely look, they were immediately furious.

"Hey! You guy!" Hattori Heiji rushed forward, "Do you know that someone died on the island again?!"

Hanyu Kusunoki raised an eyebrow: "I know."

"Then you still-"

"What else can I say?" Hanyu Kusunoki interrupted him with a smile, "I'm not a detective. Isn't it your job to solve the case?"

Hattori Heiji: "......"

(Angry, but unable to refute)

Conan pushed his glasses up and asked calmly, "Hanyu Nan, where did you go before?"

The great detective stared at Hanyu Kusunoki, trying to find any flaws in his expression.

"Rest in the room~"

Hanyu Kusunoki remained calm and said, "With Master."

Hattori Heiji: "!!!"

I can’t stand it anymore, I absolutely can’t stand it anymore!

Conan quickly grabbed the Osaka Black Chicken who was about to run away and continued to ask: "Then do you know where Miss Shimabukuro Kimie is?"

"Hmm..." Hanyu Kusunoki pretended to think and tapped his chin lightly with his index finger, "Maybe it's at the shrine? After all, someone died, and the shrine maidens would always perform rituals or something~"

After saying that, he waved his hand and turned away in style: "You guys take your time to check, I'm going to take a walk."

"Wait!" Hattori Heiji wanted to chase after her, but was frightened by Yingying's "fierce and cute" glare.

"Bu-yi!" (If you chase me again, I'll bite you!)

Hattori Heiji: "......"

Why is this strange fox so fierce? !

He muttered to himself, and inexplicably felt a little cowardly.

Hattori Heiji turned around and said angrily: "Kudo, do you believe that he knows nothing?"

Conan pushed his glasses: "......"

Believe him or not!

That guy Hanyu Kusunoki definitely knows something, but since he won’t tell them, there’s really nothing they can do to him. They can’t force him to tell them, right?

Just think about this kind of thing.

Otherwise, by then, I still don’t know who will force whom…

......

In a secluded hut in the backyard of the shrine.

Shimabukuro Kimie was kneeling in front of the mirror, slowly picking up the mask and wig of the "Longevity Lady" on the table.

There was no smile on her face, only deep fatigue and...determination.

It was like saying a final farewell to my past self.

"Finally...it's over," she murmured softly.

From today on, the world will no longer have the life-loving and energetic shrine maiden Miss Shimabukuro Kimie.

The girl who once greeted tourists with a smile in front of the shrine and was full of hope for the future is about to disappear with the night. In her place will be the long-lived woman who is said to have eaten mermaid flesh and can live forever.

This identity, carrying lies and missions, will also become a shackle for her for the rest of her life.

The shrine maiden picked up the torch and walked towards the shrine's warehouse.

There lies the body of the long-dead Monkyou Saori, or rather... the body of "Shimabukuro Kimie".

...

Outside the shrine warehouse, flames shot up into the sky.

Shimabukuro Kimie stood in the distance, quietly watching the blazing flames, the flickering flames reflected in her eyes.

--it's over.

From now on, Shimabukuro Kimie will completely disappear from the world with this fire. And she will live forever as a "longevity woman" to protect this mermaid island full of lies for her mother.

This island, carrying her pain and memories, will also become her entire future.

The flames devoured the wooden warehouse with a crackling sound, and the heat wave hit her face, burning her cheeks.

"Goodbye...Shimabukuro-kunie."

She slowly closed her eyes, tears welling up in her eye sockets, but before they could fall, they were evaporated by the high temperature.

Just as she turned to leave——

"The flame of revenge is beautiful."

A sacred and echoing voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

Shimabukuro Kimie suddenly opened her eyes and saw a slender figure slowly walking out of the blazing fire.

Hanyu Kusunoki held the fire-controlling fan and flapped it gently, and the blazing flames parted obediently in front of him, like subjects welcoming a king.
