Chapter 49 Moon Shadow Island Ghost Murder Incident, The Dead~

Inside Dr. Chengshi's office.

Asai Narumi poured drinks for Shu Yunwen and the others, and after a few polite words to each other, Mori Kogoro also raised the issue of finding a client.

"Ah? You mean, you received an entrustment from the deceased Mr. Keiji Aso, right?" Dr. Chengshi asked in surprise.

Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes.

Well, if he didn't already know that the person who sent the entrustment letter was Dr. Chengshi, he might have been deceived...

Mori Kogoro smiled and said: "Yes, that's right. However, we have already asked in the office just now. Since Mr. Aso Keiji is dead, I reasoned a bit and guessed that he sent us this letter." The letter is likely to be a friend of Mr. Keiji Aso. Moreover, the commission fee we received is not a small amount. His friend should be a very rich friend. Therefore, we would like to ask , in your impression, is there such a person?"

After the words fell, Conan rolled his eyes at the side - hey hey hey! Uncle, what point did you infer from what you said?

Shu Yunwen also joked with a smile: "The entrustment letter given to us by the client is too vague. Only by finding the client can we complete what the client asked us to do..."

Dr. Cheng Shi replied: "Actually, I was born in Tokyo, and I have only stayed on this island for a little over three years. I only listened to patients about the conditions of the residents on the island. Knowing the situation is not counted. Many... However, I did hear from a patient that Keiji Aso, Mr. Kuroiwa, Mr. Kawashima, Mr. Kameyama, and Mr. Nishimoto seemed to be friends since childhood..."

"Oh?" Uncle Mao Li said seriously, "Can you tell me about the situation of these four gentlemen?"

Dr. Chengshi nodded and said: "Of course there is no problem. Mr. Kuroiwa Tatsuji, he is the current village head of Tsukage Island; Mr. Kawashima's name is Hideo, and he is a well-known big bourgeois and rich man on the island; Mr. Nishimoto Ken has no occupation. , As for Mr. Kameyama, he was the former village chief of our Moon Shadow Island, who died three years ago. By the way, today is the third anniversary of Mr. Kameyama's death, and he will be in the public hall later How about holding a memorial ceremony~..."

"Huh? Is Mr. Kameyama dead?" Conan belongs to the type of "I am smarter than anyone else when I hear dead people". "May I ask what is the cause of Mr. Kameyama's death? Was he killed?"

Dr. Cheng Shi chuckled and shook his head: "How could it be? He just died of illness! He died of illness! Mr. Kameyama had a heart attack, and no one found out when he had a heart attack, and finally died." Dr. Cheng Shi paused , and continued: "However, when he died, he fell on the piano in the public hall, and that piano played a piece of music for him to be buried. I heard that the owner of that piano seemed to be The Aso Keiji you mentioned. Since then, some people have said that the ghost of Aso Keiji seems to have been attached to that piano..."

"...Ghost, ghost?" Xiaolan was very frightened.

Conan kid pouted: "Sister Xiaolan, there are no ghosts in this world! Even if there are ghosts, they only appear in novels and TV dramas..."

Uncle Mori also ignored the topic of "ghosts" and said instead: "The one who entrusted us here is probably Mr. Hideo Kawashima? Among these three people, he seems to be the only one who fits the characteristics... ..."

Conan kid rejected Uncle Maoli's words again: "No, that's not the case, Uncle Maoli. The current village chief of Moon Shadow Island, Mr. Heiyan Tatsuji, is also possible! He is the village chief. By the way, Doctor Chengshi, then Mr. Takeshi Nishimoto has no occupation, so his daily life must be very poor, right?"

"That's not true." Dr. Cheng Shi shook his head, "Although Mr. Nishimoto Ken has no occupation, he seems to be very rich. I heard that three years ago,

He drinks, gambles, and plays with women every day, which requires a lot of expenses..."

"Oh?" Conan smiled triumphantly, "So, Mr. Takeshi Nishimoto may spend a lot of money to hire us to come to Moon Shadow Island. In this way, the three of them are very likely... Ouch~"

Uncle Mao Li moved his hand away from Conan's head: "Little devil, don't pretend to be an adult and ask me all kinds of questions!"

Then, Uncle Mao Li smiled and looked at Dr. Cheng Shi again: "I'm really sorry, the children are making too much trouble. Well, but these three people are indeed very likely to be the client. So, Doctor Cheng Shi, what should we do? Can we find the three of them?"

Dr. Cheng Shi glanced at Conan, and then said with a smile: "If you want to find them, you can go to the public hall! As I said just now, the public hall will hold a memorial ceremony for Mr. Kameyama, the former village head~ Yes, Village Chief Heiyan, Mr. Kawashima, and Mr. Nishimoto. They are all friends of Mr. Kameyama who grew up together. They should all go. By the way, actually, I will go too, but after work ~When I came to this island, the first subject of the autopsy was Mr. Kameyama..."

Shu Yunwen narrowed his eyes.

After Dr. Cheng Shi went to the public hall, it must be the beginning of the murder case, right?

"Really?" Uncle Maori nodded with a smile, "Thank you so much for telling us this."

Several people chatted for a while, and Uncle Mao Li stood up and offered to leave.

After the group walked out of Yueying Island Clinic, Conan turned to look at Shu Yunwen, curious in his heart: "Brother Yunwen, you didn't seem to ask anything just now..."

Shu Yunwen was still thinking about the matter of helping Chengshi. He came back to his senses after hearing Conan's question, and then rolled his eyes: "You have already asked what you should ask. What else do I have to ask?"

"Hmm...it doesn't matter that much. Now that we have arrived at Moon Shadow Island, we should take this opportunity to taste the delicious food on Moon Shadow Island..."

Uncle Maori turned into a foodie, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Conan: "Uncle Maori, I think we should go to the public hall to see now! Those three people may be in the public hall right now. Hmm...if we can find a client, maybe the client will invite us to eat the most unique delicacy in Moon Shadow Island..."

"Uh..." Uncle Mao Li held his chin, "Little devil, what you said is also very reasonable!"

The real delicacies of Moon Shadow Island, of course, can only be found by people on Moon Shadow Island.

Moreover, the most important thing is... If you find a client, it must be the client's treat, and you don't need to spend money on him~

"...In this case, let's go to the public hall first."

...

Outside the Civic Hall.

Hirata and Akira bowed to Shu Yunwen, Mori Kogoro, and the others: "In short, before the memorial service ~ will end, please wait here at the gate and don't run around...the village chief will see you after the memorial service ~ is over. please!"

After Hirata and Ming finished talking, they turned around and went in.

Shu Yunwen hurriedly said: "Secretary Hirata, I am a spiritual master! There is a method of remembrance here, but you let me stay outside as a spiritual master..."

Hirata Kazuaki turned around: "Shu Sang, please don't trouble us, please? We have already invited monks from the temple."

After Hirata and Ming entered the community hall, Uncle Maoli muttered: "What a rude guy! Can this kind of person be the village chief's secretary? Really..."

Shu Yunwen turned his head and looked at Conan helplessly: "Young friend Edogawa, do you think it's very interesting? We were kicked out because you made trouble inside and played that piano indiscriminately!"

That's right, Shu Yunwen and the others entered the public hall and were waiting to meet, but Conan ran around, and even ran into the room with a piano, playing the piano randomly, and then...they were kicked out ~

Well, a bunch of not-so-friendly guys.

Conan didn't care much about it: "That Mr. Hirata seems to be very nervous about that piano. Besides, that piano doesn't look like it hasn't been played for a long time. Its tone is still very accurate. If no one If it’s tuned, it won’t be like this~!”

"Yes, it's a ghost! It must be a ghost! It's the ghost of Mr. Aso who is tuning it!" Xiaolan looked terrified.

Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes speechlessly——

Hey Hey hey! Do you want to get into the drama so quickly? I, the spiritual master, haven't said anything yet...

Moreover, when he saw the piano just now, Shu Yunwen also opened his eyes and glanced twice.

He can be sure that there is absolutely no ghost on that piano, not even a speck of yin.

"Damn it... It's already getting dark." Mori Kogoro raised his hand and looked at his watch, "If I had known earlier, I might as well go get something to eat, and we wouldn't be waiting at the gate of the public hall like we are now." Go on. Brat, it’s all because of you!”

Uncle Mao Li also represented the people and bombarded Conan's little friends.

Conan chuckled, glanced at Xiaolan who was scared beside him, and suddenly thought of teasing: "Sister Xiaolan, you said it was dark, would there be ghosts running out?"

"Ahhh~ I hate it~" Xiaolan yelled twice frantically, and then pushed Conan.

"Ouch~" Then, I saw Conan lying on the ground, eating shit like a dog, with a helpless expression on his face.

Xiaolan quickly helped Conan up: "Conan, are you okay? Really, who told you to scare me..."

"Haha... Mao Li, don't worry. If there is a ghost that really escapes, I will catch it." When Shu Yunwen spoke, he had a smile on his face, and looked at Conan amusedly——the little ghost, let it be his own fault right? Let you scare Xiaolan.

"Then leave it to Shu Sang!" Xiaolan Tongxie immediately said, I believe you.

"By the way, Dr. Cheng Shi looked very pretty in black clothes just now!" Uncle Mao Li was thinking about something in his mind.

Xiaolan was originally taking photos of Conan's clothes, but when she heard this, she immediately glared at Uncle Mao Li: "Dad! You can also give me enough time, okay?"

The four of them were chatting, and the sound of chanting sutras could be faintly heard from inside the public hall.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiaolan raised her head and looked into the sky: "The moon tonight seems very beautiful!"

Uncle Mao Li also raised his head: "Yes! Such a beautiful moon is not common in Mihua Town... The air quality here is really good... Speaking of which, the piano room is connected to the sea. If If you look out from that room, the scenery at night must be amazing. It's a pity, it's all because of this brat..."

Uncle Mori looked at Conan again with resentment.

"...Hehehehe..." Conan smirked, and immediately changed the subject, "I don't know how long it will take for this method of remembrance to end."

"It should be soon, right?" Shu Yunwen smiled, turned his head and glanced behind him, and when he saw the situation in the public hall behind him, his face changed.

On the other side of the public hall, a cloud of yin and ghost energy slowly grew and dispersed towards the surroundings.

This sight also means that someone died.

Narumi Asai finally made a move.

Shu Yunwen stood up, estimated the direction, and walked towards the direction where the Yin Qi was growing. Uncle Mao Li, Conan, and Xiaolan were all curious, and Conan even asked, "Brother Yunwen, what are you doing there?"

Shu Yunwen waved his hand and said casually: "I'll go for a walk in the woods, don't worry about me."

Uncle Mao Li glanced in Shu Yunwen's direction, with two rings behind his head: "Weird guy."

Conan squinted his eyes, stood up suddenly, and quickly chased in the direction of Shu Yunwen: "Sister Xiaolan, Uncle Maoli, I'll go and have a look too, you don't need to worry about me."

"Conan! Don't run around! Really..." Xiaolan looked at the direction Conan was running, and wanted to catch up, but when she looked at the black forest, she was afraid and felt a little hairy.

Uncle Mao Li glanced at him from a distance, and said casually, "Okay, Xiao Lan, don't worry about that brat. With Shu Sang taking care of him, he will be fine."

"But..." Xiaolan hesitated, thought for a while, and finally gave up and followed.

in the woods.

Shu Yunwen looked at the kid who was following behind him, feeling a little helpless: "Young friend Edogawa, why did you follow?"

"Oh? Isn't it possible?" Conan asked curiously, "Brother Yunwen, do you have to be alone for something?"

Lao Tzu found out that Naruto Asai had murdered, so how about dealing with the evidence and traces? You little devil follows, it's very in the way!

Shu Yunwen complained in his heart, but said on his mouth: "Cut! It's up to you. If you want to follow, then follow."

Conan responded, and then suddenly asked: "By the way, Brother Yunwen. Regarding that Secretary Hirata, do you think he is a little strange?"

"Strange? Is there?" Shu Yunwen asked.

Conan nodded: "Of course! At the beginning, his attitude towards us was pretty good. However, after seeing the piano, he seemed to lose his composure. I always feel that he seems to be hiding What……"

The two of them chatted one after another, and then Shu Yunwen walked slowly to the place not far from the soul.

Conan looked around curiously: "This...should be the back of the piano room in the public hall, right?"

"It should be! It's strange, why did you wander here?" Shu Yunwen looked at it from a distance, and through the faint light, he could see a newborn ghost floating on the sea, and some ghosts on the beach on the ground. Strange traces, probably footprints.

That guy Asai Naomi, he probably drowned people in the sea, right?

Shu Yunwen chanted a witch spell, and then said "photograph", the newborn ghost has been caught by Shu Yunwen and turned into a soul ball.

Shu Yunwen looked down, and saw on the surface of the soul ball, a ferocious face kept trying, as if trying to break free.

Shu Yunwen had never seen this face before. However, it should be one of the goals that come true. Moreover, this newborn ghost should have lost its sanity, and it is just the most common newborn ghost.

"From here, can I enter the piano room?" Conan asked curiously, wanting to walk forward.

Shu Yunwen quickly reached out and grabbed Conan: "Young friend Edogawa, don't run around. The beach is in front of you. If you are swept away by the sea and die, I can't bear the responsibility."

"Hehehe..." Conan smirked, rolling his eyes wildly in his heart, ah! You will die!

As for Shu Yunwen, after carefully looking at the traces in the distance, after confirming that they should be footprints, he squinted his eyes and began to recite the witch spell again.

【Ghost Witchcraft · Spirit Control】!

With the end of the witchcraft, the ball of soul in Shu Yunwen's hand suddenly rose into the sky, and a cloud of yin and ghost energy flew towards the beach not far away. Under the action of the strange force, the footprints on the sand were filled one by one standing there, as if no one had walked on it at all.

Seeing that the footprints began to disappear, Shu Yunwen didn't stay any longer, took Conan's hand, turned around and left: "Okay, little devil. I've had enough wandering, let's go back!"

"Oh... good!" Although Conan was a little strange, he didn't notice anything unusual, nodded, followed behind Shu Yunwen, and walked out of the woods.

Walking back to the gate of the public hall, Xiaolan immediately hugged Conan: "Really, Conan, you are running around again, you are so disobedient! Shu Sang, I am really sorry that Conan has caused you trouble."

"Oh, it's okay." Shu Yunwen shook his head casually, at the same time, the newborn ghost in the distance quickly flew back into Shu Yunwen's hands, and turned into a soul ball again.

Uncle Mao Li took a deep breath on his cigarette and said, "Is there anything to see in the woods?"

Shu Yunwen replied with a smile: "Of course not. As I said, I just went for a walk..."

"Huh?" Before he finished speaking, suddenly, there was only a sound of piano coming from the public hall.

Conan Xiaoguitou listened for a few seconds, then his expression changed drastically, he pushed open the door of the public hall, and rushed in quickly.

Uncle Mao Li stood up with a solemn expression, "Xiaolan, if I remember correctly, this song should be..."

"..."Moonlight", right?" Shu Yunwen took the conversation, looked into the public hall, and Conan's figure running quickly followed immediately.

Seeing this, Uncle Mao Li and Xiao Lan rushed into the public hall together.

In the public hall, Conan followed the sound, found the door of the piano room, and pushed open the door forcefully.

As far as I can see, in the empty room, on the piano directly opposite the door, a man who is soaked all over is sitting on a chair, with his head lying on the keyboard and his face facing the window. Beside the piano, beautiful and light music sounded, as if it came from heaven, but it also seemed to come from hell.

At this time, Uncle Mao Li also rushed to the door of the piano room. After seeing the situation in the room, he immediately rushed into the room, stretched out his hand and pressed on the neck of the deceased. After a few seconds, he closed his eyes and shook his head helplessly: "Too It's too late, he's dead."

Conan also walked into the room, first looked at the drenched corpse, and walked to the back door of the beach along the water stains on the ground.

"The corpse should have been moved in from here. The water stains on the ground should be sea water, and there are some sand in the traces on the ground. The feet of the deceased are also stained with sand. Preliminary judgment, it should be that someone called the deceased. Go out, then drowned in the water, dragged into the piano room through the back door..."

Conan reasoned in his mind, and at the same time thought of what he and Shu Yunwen saw from the woods and the beach.

"Based on time, when Shu Yunwen and I were in the woods, the deceased had already been killed and dragged into the room. Damn it! Who did it? Who the hell?!"

Conan was still thinking about it. As for Shu Yunwen, with a smile on his face, he looked out at the beach through the window of the back door.

The waves on the beach are surging, and the ground on the beach is flat without any traces.

Conan walked up to Shu Yunwen, jumped vigorously to the window of the back door, looked outside, and was stunned.

On the ground...how could there be no traces?

"Damn it!" Uncle Mao Li yelled, turned his head and saw Doctor Cheng Shi in the crowd, "Doctor Cheng Shi, can I trouble you to help with the autopsy?"

"Ah? Yes!" Dr. Cheng Shi, who has excellent acting skills, responded and walked in. After watching for a while, he asserted, "The deceased should have been drowned. However, we can't be sure without an autopsy..."

"Drowning...there are traces on the ground..." Mori Kogoro also walked to the back door, "did he drowned in the sea, and then was dragged into this room? Such a vile prisoner, such an abominable guy... ...My name is Detective Mori Kogoro, I must arrest you!"

Conan said solemnly: "Uncle Maori, my inference is the same as yours. But, don't you think there is something missing on the beach outside?"

Uncle Mao Li froze for a moment: "Is there anything missing?"

"On the beach outside, there are no traces of footprints or dragging." Conan said.

Uncle Mao Li stared outside, then opened the door, looked at the beach: "Really, really not? How is this possible? How did he do it, can he not leave footprints?!"

Conan was also standing on the wooden ladder in front of the door, looking at the flat sandy beach below, and there was a slightly obvious trail of water stains: "... If our reasoning is correct, it means that there is a lack of energy on the sandy beach. The most critical link to support our reasoning. In other words, this is..."

"...Impossible to commit a crime!"
