I'm in Conan, and I'm the mastermind behind the scenes.

The duration of an astronomical phenomenon like a solar eclipse is very short, generally no more than seven minutes and 21 seconds.

But this eclipse seems particularly weird.

Even though time has passed, the sun is still dark on the East China Sea.

It's like a dark sun hanging in the sky side by side with the stars.

The thick white mist rising above the sea added an eerie color to the already gloomy atmosphere.

At least in this environment, there are many ships that can accurately identify the direction in the sea.

There were originally hundreds of ships, but only a dozen or so made it through the thick white fog and arrived at the green gate hidden inside.

"Finally found!"

"That's the entrance to the City of Ghost Lanterns!!"

The crowd on the boat cheered.

Most of them were hired by the financial owner. Finding the City of Ghost Lanterns means a large bonus.

And if they can find the treasure inside that can make people live forever, it will be even more It is wealth that can never be used up in a lifetime.

Thinking about it this way, they looked at their competitors with a different meaning.

Some people had already begun to check their weapons.

"Be prepared."

The black blind man was sitting astride the side of the ship, holding a violin in his hand, and was playing House of Flying Daggers. The exciting and tense music, not to mention, matched the current atmosphere quite well. Many people looked over.

The boss of the ship looked at After arriving, he quickly said with a grimace:"Master Hei, what time has it been? Please stop it. I still want to come out alive with all my tail intact.""

"If you think so well, then you shouldn't take this job."

The black blind man jumped off the side of the ship, looked at the heavily armed mercenaries on the deck, and said in a casual tone:

"Everyone, the dirty talk is ahead of us."

"I don’t know what’s going on in this ghost lantern city. If it’s too dangerous then, we’ll all run away for our lives."

"......no problem."

These mercenaries sent by Judecao looked at each other, and finally the mercenary captain nodded in half-baked Chinese.

"Then let's go, I don't know how many people will survive."

Seeing that some ships could not wait to sail into the green gate, the black blind man shook his head and stood on the deck with his eyes closed to relax.

About five hundred meters in front of them, there was Suzuki Jirokichi's luxury cruise ship.

Before, he looked as bold as a pirate. The Queen's Garden, looking at the strange and gloomy environment around her, hugged Xiaolan's arm tightly, with a nervous expression on her face

"This guy."

Conan shook his head speechlessly when he saw this.

He knew it would be like this.

This idiot Sonoko is a paper tiger.

"Hattori."

Sneaking closer to Hattori Heiji, Conan whispered:"After we go in, once we find something, these people are likely to fight. Are you prepared?"

"certainly."

Hattori Heiji motioned to Conan to come to his room, and he opened a large black suitcase.

"This is the gun I asked my father to get."

?!

After a quick glance, he found that there were even grenades and sniper rifles in the suitcase. Conan's eyes twitched as he suspected that this guy wanted to rob a bank.

"Nah."

Hattori Heiji smiled sheepishly,"Originally, my father was determined not to let me come, but due to my insistence, he had no choice but to help and serve as a temporary officer in the Osaka Prefectural Police, so that he could legally hold a gun."

"No wonder you left He Ye on Mermaid Island, you had already made plans......"

Conan sighed.

I found that compared to Hattori Heiji, he was the one with the most limitations due to his child's body.

At least if he were still Kudo Shinichi, he could prevent Sonoko, an idiot, from getting on the ship.

But now...

He had to pretend to be cute and stand on a united front with Yuanzi in order to get Xiaolan's permission to board the ship.

"Feel at ease. Hattori Heiji was very tolerant,"

We should be the safest group of people together with Xiaolan.""

"Besides, there's that guy named White Horse Detective. That arrogant man won't do anything he's not sure of." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"That's what it says......"

Conan frowned slightly, still feeling a little uneasy.

And just when he was about to say something, the ship suddenly shook violently.

The cruise ship that has passed through the green gate is still sailing on the white sea.

But there seems to be something beneath the water, tearing the hull apart.[]

"quick!"

"Increase the horsepower of your engine!!"

There were panicked shouts from the crowd on other ships.

Some people couldn't even restrain themselves from shooting.

Bang bang - the light from the muzzle was inconspicuous in the white mist.

But the continuous gunshots were loud and clear. In this empty environment, it seems particularly harsh

"Be careful everyone."

On the deck, Kyogoku stood in front of Sonoko for the first time, staring sharply under the water.

Crash!

On the sea where the white mist spread, the water flow stirred slightly, as if there were some monsters lurking below.

Heavily armed Hattori Heiji came out of the room and saw a ship beside them. A monster covered in scales jumped out of the water, with golden pupils like torches, and a pale face full of desire for flesh and blood.

"Ahhh——"

A crew member was dragged into the sea, and blood rippled on the water.

This seemed to turn on a switch, and more blue-grey figures jumped out of the water and pulled the people on the boat down.

There is also a ship. Due to insufficient tonnage, the bottom of the ship has been torn open, a large amount of seawater has poured into it, and it is sinking little by little.

"Depend on!"

This scene reminded Black Blind Man of the water monkey he had encountered before.

However, this time the monster was obviously more difficult to deal with than the water monkey. At least the water monkey did not have scales all over its body, and its eyes were golden. It looked like Infiltrate people

"Black, Black Master."

The boss of the ship was trembling with fear at this time, and said tremblingly:"How about we go back? I won't make any money."

"If you want to leave now, you have to ask those guys underwater if they agree."

The black blind man rolled his eyes, suddenly jumped into the air, hooked his feet on the railing of the ship, pulled out the gun from his waist, and fired downwards.

Bang Bang!!

The bullet shot out of the gun chamber and accurately hit the eye of a climbing monster..The black blind man reached out and when the monster was about to fall, he grabbed its body and threw it to the deck.

"hiss——"

And this also allowed everyone on the boat to see the monster's full face.

The blue-gray scales flashed with a metallic luster.

The pale face looked both human and snake-like, with thick black blood flowing out of its golden pupils.

The blood seemed to be highly corrosive and dripped on the deck. The metal deck emitted green smoke and became pitted.

"We are in big trouble!!"

Seeing this, the black blind man slapped his forehead, showing a headache and helpless expression......Son..
