Start By Becoming A Mangaka

Chapter 765: Fingerprints



"So what are you going to do, Takagi-kun?" Megure asked.

Takagi took out an aluminum box and placed the match on that box along with a small plate beside it, "This is called cyanide methacrylate. UHU glue contains cyanide methacrylate, which reacts to the water in secretion." He put the UHU glue on that small plate until it was full. "You can use this to get fingerprints." He closed the lid of the box and said, "Now you just wait for the fingerprints to show."

"Hoo...."

Everyone seemed amazed by his knowledge.

"When did you learn this?" Sato asked.

Takagi was happy when he saw their reaction, "Hehehe, well... I saw this method in the movie and checked it with an officer from the identification bureau too."

Shiratori looked at his love rival and smiled, "Then I hope this will go as well as it did in the movie."

Takagi could only smile wryly at him. He couldn\'t do anything since Shiratori was his superior.

Yuuki and everyone went to the beach where Yamaguchi told them.

"So this is the place where \'the pirates are crying\'?" Yaeko asked.

"Yes," Yamaguchi nodded.

They were a bit confused about why this was named that way.

"Ah! Yuuki-nii!!! Big Sis!"

They heard a familiar voice and they didn\'t need to see who was calling them.

Yuuki knew that there was no way that he could escape from Conan. He could only embrace his fate and solve the case as soon as possible.

"Are you going to go for the riddle too, big sis?" Ayumi asked.

"Yes, we have heard that the location of the next riddle might be here," Ranko nodded.

The wind was quite strong in this place and they were sure that they would get sick if they had stayed in this place for a long time.

"Is it the sound of the wind? It is a bit similar to someone crying," Sonoko said.

"Really!"

"I heard it on the way here," Mitsuhiko said.

Sonoko blushed since she was wrong, "I know that!"

Haibara touched the sand and said, "The sand here contains a lot of quartz and it\'s fine too."

"Wow, this sand is very beautiful," Mayuki said. She was wondering whether she could bring this back later.

Yuuki walked toward the beach but when his feet touched the sand.

*Pik! Pok! Pik! Pok!

Yuuki stopped and tried to walk in the place. He created a lot of strange sounds similar to someone crying while walking in this place, "Oh, that\'s why it is called the pirates are crying."

Everyone was also curious and tried together. They were a bit surprised with one of the phenomena of this island.

"I see!" Conan suddenly said and looked around. He started to walk around and found the location where the pirates didn\'t cry, "It is here!"

Everyone looked at him and saw the treasure chest beside him. They understood the meaning of this riddle was to find the place on this beach which didn\'t make any crying sound. They took the stamp and stamped their map.

They had filled four stamps and they needed another two before they had finished this riddle.

"5 and 18 in blue color, I wonder what is the meaning of this number and color?" Tsugumi said.

"Well, what is the next clue?" Yuzuru asked.

Chiaki took the hint and started to read it, "Next, \'Pirate\'s soul will go to heaven\'." She frowned and asked, "Will the pirate\'s soul go to heaven?"

"No, they go to the underworld or Cocytus," Akeno said.

"....."

\'Oi,\' Yuuki was speechless when he heard her answer that question seriously. He was sure that the hell in this world was the Cocytus that was managed by Hades, \'Or it might be the underworld?\' He knew that the underworld was very wide and bigger than the earth itself and that might be the place where people went if they didn\'t go to heaven.

"Still, this is a very hard riddle," Yukana said.

"The head of the Department of Tourism is good!" Conan praised.

They were walking back to their manor while thinking about the next riddle.

"That\'s true, all of them are a very good riddle," Yuuki said.

"Yeah, is---" Conan stopped when he saw something strange. He hurriedly climbed the rock and used his glasses to zoom his vision. He saw the diving shop earlier and the treasure hunter was doing a sketchy business there, "What are they doing?" He muttered until he heard someone.

"It is hard to live with only a diving shop," Yuuki said and put him back.

Conan was helpless when this guy treated him like this.

"That treasure hunter might have rented the ship from the diving ship," Yuuki answered.

"Really?" Conan asked curiously.

Yuuki nodded, "Yes, do you want to check it?"

Conan nodded and said to everyone, "Sorry, I have somewhere to go! Why don\'t you go back first?" He didn\'t say anything afterward and left them behind.

"...."

"Wait, Conan-kun!"

"Again...."

The group of detective boys was helpless with his actions.

"What is that kid doing?" Yaeko asked.

"His dream is to become the best detective, he is trying to investigate something," Yuuki said.

Yaeko frowned, "Is that okay?"

"Well, he has a lot of strange gadgets on his body, he will be okay, no, the world will make him okay," Yuuki said.

"What does that mean?" Yaeko asked with a confused expression.

"I am not that sure either," Yuuki answered. He looked at the sky and wondered whether fate started to bend because of that little devil existence.

Takagi waited for a while and opened the box.

Everyone also looked at the box with a curious expression.

"It appeared!" Takagi smiled while showing everyone the fingerprints on the match.

"Now we just have to change it into data and send it off to be examined."

"Well done, Takagi-kun!"

Everyone was amazed by his ability.

"Thank you," Takagi smiled happily.

"Tell me if you ever want to transfer to the identification bureau. I can write you a letter of recommendation," Shiratori said.

"..." Takagi smiled wrily at him.

"Anyway, send that to the headquarters," Megure said.

"Yes!" Takagi nodded and sent the data to the headquarters.

They were waiting for a while talking to each other until the alarm suddenly rang at the police station.

"What\'s happening?" Megure asked.

"The alarm in the Tourism Office has gone off!" Local police said.

"Then something happened in the Tourism Office?" Sato asked.

"That alarm always has problems though," the police said.

"We better go and take a look in case," Megure said.

Everyone nodded and went to the Tourism Office together.

The local police were waiting in the station with a sigh. He was wondering why there were a lot of things happening lately. He sat down on his desk and suddenly he saw the result of the fingerprints had come out. He was shocked when he saw the result, "W - What is this?!"
