Conan along with Heiji, Ran, and Kogoro visit the Isle of Mermaids looking for Saori Kadowaki, who had sent a letter to Heiji asking them to save her from being killed by a mermaid. In secret Heiji confines to Conan that the letter was meant for Shinichi despite being send to Heiji's address. But when they try to look for Saori she has been reported missing. They decided to talk with Saori's childhood friend Kimie, who is the elder's great-granddaughter. Rokuro Fukuyama the fisherman is Toshimi's fiancé. Those two along with Naoko, a shop clerk, are also childhood friends with Saori. They don't seem concerned over Saori's disappearance, but that's because Saori often left home, when she had argued with her father. Every year on this island a festival is held where three people win the Dugong Arrow that is said to wield immortality to its carrier. Saori won one last year, but have lost it and had since been paranoid about being curse by mermaids up until her disappearance. Kimie offer Ran and Kazuha each a ticket to the lottery, since a couple called off, and promise to take them to Saori's house after the festival. During the festival Kazuha wins an arrow, which she receives along with Naoko and Saori's father Benzo. The festival is brought to a disastrous end when one of the winners is found dead hanging down the waterfall.
