*BANG!
Suddenly there was a gunshot that was aimed toward them.
The fat treasure hunter was shot.
"Hurry up and enter!" Another treasure hunter said.
They hurriedly escaped from that place and rode their car away from that place.
Conan looked at the direction of the person who had shot the treasure hunters. He walked to check whether there was the culprit but he didn't find anything. He only found two bullets that were shot earlier and a trail of a bicycle on the damp earth. He took his phone and started to take a picture of the scene. He heard the sound of a police car which was moving toward the Tourism Office and went to that place.
---
The alarm had made the local become quite panicked.
Kogorou, who was drinking alcohol in the pub, was startled and went out to check what was happening. He saw a lot of people running until he saw his acquaintances, "Stop! What's happening?"
"Don't stop me!" Iwanaga said with a panicked expression.
"Tell me, what happens?" Kogorou didn't care about him.
Iwanaga sighed and told him that there was something happening in the Tourism Office.
Kogorou nodded and robbed his bicycle.
"What are you doing?!" Iwanaga was mad.
"Hurry up and get on! Or I will leave you!" Kogorou said.
Iwanaga sighed and got on the back of the bike.
Both of them started to ride the bicycle together and ignored the hostess of the restaurant who was shouting at them.
"Stop! Stop! You haven't paid the bill!" The hostess shouted at them.
A local police officer who was riding his bicycle and wanted to report the results of the fingerprints heard the plea of this aunt, "What's wrong, hostess?"
"Uehirchan, someone ran away and didn't pay his bill! Please get him for me!" the hostess said.
Uehira, who was one of the local police, sighed, "d.a.m.n it, not another incident again!"

Conan joined Megure and everyone looked at the display in the Tourist Office which was broken by someone.
"They broke the display counter using a jimmy. That's bold," Megure said. His phone suddenly rang and he opened it, "How is it, Sato-kun?"
Sato and Takagi were outside after hearing information from Conan that there was a fight with a gunshot that was happening earlier.
"Yes, as Conan-kun said, there were gunshots. There are bloodstains at the crime scene," Sato said.
"I see. Can you maintain the area?" Megure asked.
"It would be quite difficult to do so," Sato answered and looked at Takagi, who had found the cartridge cases of the bullets from the gunshot earlier.
"Is that so? Then take a picture of the crime scene and come back here," Megure said.
Sato nodded, "Okay."
Megure closed the phone and saw both Iwanaga and Kogorou who were running together toward him.
Iwanaga was shocked when he saw the thing that had happened in the tourism office, "The cutla.s.s and the pistol were stolen!"
"Were they worth a lot?" s.h.i.+ratori asked.
"They were found inside Seabed Palace, the cutla.s.s of Anne Bonnie and the pistol of Mary Read," Iwanaga said.
Kogorou was still drunk and looked at the crime scene with half-opened eyes. He hit his chest and said, "Don't worry, I am here. Hick...."
"..."
Everyone was speechless when they saw him drunk.
"Hmm? Mouri-kun, you're red," Megure said.
"N - No, I am just excited to see everyone," Kogorou didn't want to know that he was drunk.
Megure wanted to check on him but stopped when he heard a scream.
"MOURI KOGORU, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!!!!"
"..."
"Huh?!"
"You didn't pay your bill, stole a bicycle, and were drunk driving!" Uehira took out his handcuffs and caught him.
Kogorou instantly became sobber, "Eh?!"
Conan sweatdropped at him.
"Is that true?" Megure asked.
"Yes," Uehira nodded and said, "He didn't pay his bill in the pub, stole Mr. Iwanaga's bicycle and ran away. That's what the hostess said."
"I didn't steal his bicycle. He sat right behind me. Right? Right?" Kogorou looked at Iwanaga with a pleading expression. It wouldn't be a joke for him to enter jail and his reputation as the famous detective would be tarnished.
"Yeah...." Iwanaga was wondering whether this guy was the famous detective.
"..." Everyone was speechless at him.
Uehira suddenly remembered something and said, "That's right, Inspector, the results of the matching fingerprints arrived." He took out the result and showed it to him.
Megure was surprised to see that the treasure hunters were criminals, "Is this true?!"
s.h.i.+ratori took out the paper and started to read it, "Matsumoto Mitsus.h.i.+. He has stolen important cultural artifacts from ruins all over the world. Theft and burglary of works of art, and even murder. He's a big fish."
"So they are international fugitives," Kogorou shook his head.
"d.a.m.n, so they are trying to steal the treasure of Anne and Bony?" Iwanaga was really mad.
"What do you mean?"
"Is there more treasure beside the stolen cutla.s.s and pistol?"
Iwanaga realized that he had raised his voice. He felt a bit sorry and said, "Yes, Anne Bonnie and Mary Read were pirates. 300 years ago, they hid their treasure on Koumi Island."
Kogorou was surprised when he heard this information, "Is that true?"
"Yes, the best evidence is both cutla.s.s and pistols that have been stolen," Iwanaga said.
Conan smelled something fishy and looked at Kogorou. He smelled something strange from him.
Kogorou noticed his glance, "Ha?"
"Uncle, I thought that you were at the pub with beautiful hostesses?" Conan asked.
Kogorou sighed and crouched down, "Not only was she not beautiful, but she was also an old hag!" He started to complain about the thing that had happened to him earlier.
Conan could smell something familiar and saw stains of something on his s.h.i.+rt, "You've got something on you, uncle." He touched the stains and knew that he was right, 'I see.'
"What is this?" Kogorou looked strangely at the stains on his s.h.i.+rt.
Megure told the local police to tell the local people to be careful that their boats wouldn't be stolen by the group of treasure hunters.
"Understood!" Uehira said and started his job.
Conan went to Megure and reported what he had seen on the diving s.h.i.+p. He told them that Matsumoto the treasure hunter was paying the diving s.h.i.+p owner Mabuchi-san.
"What?!"
Sato and Takagi went back and they received another task from Megure to go to the diving shop the thing that had been told by Conan.
Megure and s.h.i.+ratori went to the hotel where the treasure hunters were staying.
They needed to catch these treasure hunters as soon as possible.
"W - Wait?! What about the handcuffs on my hands?!" Kogorou complained but no one heard him.
Conan only shook his head and hoped that the case would be solved as soon as possible.
