Kip. 24: Frightening!! The Strange Event on the Southern Island

24

The Kurikara Detective Agency is asked to come to Monkey Island to solve a terrifying mystery. On the plane journey a passenger is murdered. Kuroda and Aota, two police detectives, try to keep the Ōzora's from interfering, but Hibari manages to flirtatiously convince Kuroda to let them help. Another criminal tries to hijack the plane but is comically ignored as the Detectives and Ōzora's argue. Suzume discovers the victim is alive and had been playing a practical joke. After parachuting to Monkey Island Suzume spots a suspicious man in a mask. The mayor, whose daughter Yukiyo is identical to Rie, explains that his other daughters, Hanayo and Hoshiyo, both disappeared and he is afraid Yukiyo is next. He believes the kidnapper is a Demon Monkey from local legend. That night they catch the masked man but it turns out to be Kaji stalking Tsubame. Yukiyo disappears as an earthquake destroys the island, freeing the Demon Monkey who returns the three girls to their father, then fights and defeats three nearby islands, the Demon Crab, the Demon Bee and the Demon Pepper Grinder before disappearing. With the case solved the Ōzora's sail back to Japan on a wooden raft. (Source: Wikipedia)
