Chapter 46 Honoring the Dead You
The melodious piano music spread throughout the public hall.
In the room where the ceremony was being performed, someone's expression changed.
A certain elementary school student who was sitting on the steps immediately rushed in with a changed face.
Mao Lilan and Mao Li Kogoro also followed.
"It seems that someone has entered eternal sleep." Shuji Tsushima said to Amuro Toru with some envy.
Then he walked in slowly.
There were several big men in black suits standing in the corridor outside the room, but none of them dared to open the door of the room where the sound of the piano was coming from.
I could only watch helplessly as a certain elementary school student pushed open the door.
The murder scene was revealed.
A man is lying on the piano, covered in water, and looks dead.
There are also wet marks on the surrounding ground.
The sea outside can be seen through the window of this room.
"It's a curse! It must be the curse of this piano!" Someone shouted in panic.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's just a recording. How can a dead person continue to play the piano." Shuji Tsushima said silently at the door.
Amuro looked at him strangely.
Kao, this guy, can actually comfort people?
He looked at the young man with his back turned to the crowd, whispering thoughts.
"Ah... this kind of guy can get eternal sleep, but I can't..."
Toru Amuro: ...
Sure enough, is this what you really mean?
"Detective Tsushima, this is your occasion, why don't you go and observe?" He suddenly whispered in Shuji Tsushima's ear.
The boy didn't respond to being frightened at all, and looked listless.
"Yada, I'm not interested in this kind of case at all..."
"Huh? But didn't you look forward to it when you came?" Toru Amuro was puzzled.
Since I have no interest at all, am I the one who insisted on coming?
"It's not this person's death that I'm looking forward to." Shuji Tsushima gave him a strange look and said.
Then continue to bow your head and think about it.
"Damn it...so jealous...so jealous that it's about to break..."
"Why doesn't the goddess of death love me?"
"She is my long-cherished wish..."
Toru Amuro: Hey, it’s fine if you’re not looking forward to a case, but are you looking forward to someone else’s death?
Not that this person means...
Will anyone else die?
impossible……
Foreseeing the future... Can people with high IQs do it?
On the other side, Kudo Shinichi, who had the appearance of a primary school student, also started his own reasoning.
"...Here, from the door to the position of the piano, there are traces of dragging water..."
Shuji Tsushima squatted on the spot, his kite-colored left eye stared at a certain elementary school student who was clear and eloquent.
Laughed without emotion.
"Hey, it's really undisguised."
He made no secret of his strangeness, and still had a flamboyant style that he wanted to put a sign on his body [I'm not a real elementary school student, I have problems].
"Hey, isn't it interesting, Mr. Tou?" the boy asked briskly.
"That little detective."
Toru Amuro crossed his arms and watched the elementary school student whose IQ was beyond ordinary.
"It's really interesting, that kid, looks so smart." He thought carefully.
"Because he is a test product of the organization." Shuji Tsushima said casually.
"Ah, speaking of it, you should be able to guess his identity." He turned around and asked Toru Amuro.
"...Is that the famous high school student detective?" Toru Amuro asked tentatively.
"Guessed right, but there is no reward."
"It's very interesting. High school students become elementary school students, but detectives are still detectives."
"Speaking of which, Tou-kun should remember to protect this little detective, after all, the organization has already set his sights on him." Shuji Tsushima suddenly laughed in a low voice while speaking.
"Sa, let's continue to be spectators." He said this, stood up, and returned to the crowd.
...
The chunky, bald-headed Heiyan Village Chief, and the domineering woman is his daughter, wearing black blind sunglasses, as if the one who is going to play the erhu on the street in the next moment is the bald-headed son-in-law.
The tall and thin man in black clothes is Masato Shimizu who I met before.
With disheveled hair and unfocused eyes, the man surnamed Nishimoto looked quite nervous.
Mutual slander incidents are taking place at the scene of the crime.
The bald head said that Masato Shimizu was the biggest beneficiary after the death of the deceased, and his daughter also crazily assisted the bald head. Masato Shimizu said that the bald head, like him, was an elector.
The deceased is also very happy when he is dead and bald.
The bald-headed daughter said in a weird way that Masato Shimizu arranged the ticket source of the deceased as his own.
At this time, the clever elementary school student detective raised new doubts.
"Then why did the murderer move the dead to this room?"
"That's because the prisoner wanted to blame the death of the deceased on the curse of the piano." Mori Kogoro replied.
"That's weird, what does brother Tsushima think?" A certain elementary school student looked at the black-clothed boy who appeared.
"Hey? Don't look at me, I don't know anything. Detective Mori will definitely find out the truth." Shuji Tsushima said helplessly, spreading his hands.
"Haha, that's right, I, Kogoro Moori, will definitely find the murderer!" Kogoro Moori laughed wildly.
So I found out that the piano was donated by Keiji Aso fifteen years ago, and Keiji Aso's name was on it.
Mori Kogoro reached out to look for it, but found a sheet of music.
"Tsushima...Are you the president of the Tsushima Club?" The bald head came to Shuji Tsushima who was watching the play silently, and hesitantly asked.
"It's right down."
"Ah la la, this is really, this is really a name that has been admired for a long time! President Tsushima came to our Moon Shadow Island to play, but I let you encounter this kind of thing. I am very sorry." The bald man clenched his fists and said apologetically.
"When that detective finds out the murderer, I will treat you well." The bald head said respectfully.
"...Next, it's your turn." Shuji Tsushima glanced at him and said in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Baldhead looked like he didn't hear clearly.
"No, I said, I am very much looking forward to the reception of Village Chief Heiyan." The young president was cold and distant, with a polite tone.
"sure."
Shuji Tsushima: Anyway, you won’t live until that time~
Since it was getting late, it was not conducive to the investigation, so everyone dispersed and decided to start the investigation tomorrow.
After Makoto Asai gave great praise to Conan's reasoning performance, a certain elementary school student said insincerely that he learned his reasoning from Mori Kogoro.
So I got a punch that Maori Kogoro loved.
Conan then published his own reasoning.
"...someone will be killed next..."
So Mori Kogoro, who was halfway there, ran back to the public hall after hearing Conan's reasoning.
Edogawa Conan and Mao Lilan also followed.
"Will Mr. Tsushima go with us?" Mao Lilan asked before following up.
Shuji Tsushima: ...No, I don't want to sleep with a corpse all night, a dead man...
"Well, Mr. Amuro and I will not disturb Mr. Mori Kogoro's investigation, we will go back to the hotel first."
