Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

Chapter 72 Beethoven's Piano Sonata "Moonlight" (3)

According to Hirata Kazuaki's description, the reason why this piano is called the cursed piano is because the former village chief also died here.

When he died, the song called "Moonlight" played by Mr. Aso was heard.

Hearing this, Xingchen thought, it seems that he should keep Conan with him all the time to avoid ghosts.

Then he shook his head to get rid of all the thoughts in his mind. He must have been imagining too much.

Looking at it this way, you might be scaring yourself.

In such a scientific world, this is probably just someone's way of killing people.

Conan didn't believe it either, so he immediately opened the piano cover and started playing, and a cheerful song sounded.

Although Xingchen was not surprised by what Conan said, he even thought it sounded pretty good.

"Conan!" Ran Mao Li shouted hurriedly.

"This piano, there's nothing different about it?" Conan said as he played. Because he had absolute pitch, he could tell that someone had been tuning this piano. It wasn't out of tune.

Subsequently.

Snapped.

The door of the piano room was closed. Hirata Kazuaki leaned against the door and said, "Anyway, please wait outside until the ceremony is over."

After Hirata and Ming, Xingchen and his group met Dr. Asai Narimi again.

Asai Narimi took the initiative to greet them, “You guys are still here.”

"Ms. Chengshi, you are here to participate in the religious ceremony," asked Mao Lilan.

"Yes, when I first came to this island, the first corpse I examined was Mr. Kameyama's, so I thought about burning a stick of incense for him." Asai Narumi changed into a black suit and said.

After one hour.

Xingchen and his group were waiting outside the gate for the people inside to finish the ritual.

Xingchen sat on the steps, propping up her face with her little hands.

I was staring at the stars in the sky out of habit, and my eyes caught sight of the round moon next to me, and suddenly something came to my mind.

This is the letter sent to Uncle Maori. On the next full moon night on Moon Shadow Island, shadows will begin to disappear again.

disappear.

Why do shadows disappear? Only when a person dies will the shadow gradually disappear from this world.

"Oh no." Xingchen thought of this and quickly stood up and ran into the community center, if he was right.

At this moment, a piece of text emerged in his mind. Beethoven's sonata, music score!

"Chen." Conan was still thinking about the question when he was interrupted by Xingchen's sudden words. He stood up and chased after him.

"Xiaochen?!" Mao Lilan shouted.

Thump~thump~thump.

But it was too late, the music started just as Xingchen ran to the door.

Xingchen couldn't care less and pushed the door open. He saw a black man jumping out of the opposite window.

"Don't run!" Xingchen also chased to the window. He leaned over to look, but saw nothing here except the clothes on the sea.

When I looked back, I saw someone lying on the piano.

"Chen." "Xiaochen." Conan, Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri also rushed over and turned on the lights in the room.

Conan saw the scene in front of him, it was Mr. Kawashima.

"We're too late." Xingchen whispered as he stood beside the corpse.

The music also attracted other people to the room, and one person took advantage of the chaos to blend into the crowd. It was as if he had never left the room where the music was being performed.

"No, he's dead." Maori Kogoro also found the body sitting on the piano chair and walked over to feel the pulse, but it had stopped for a long time.

"Ah! What did you say?" A fat and round man shouted. He was the current village chief, Kuroiwa Tatsuji.

Maori Kogoro began to take over the scene, first carrying Xingchen to Conan, then asking Xiaolan to call the police, and then asking Dr. Chengshi to perform an autopsy.

Conan was a little annoyed, and he also thought of the letter. Thinking about it this way, Xingchen thought of this matter before him.

"curse!"

"This is the curse of this piano." Hirata Kazuaki pointed at the piano and said in horror, which also made the people behind him who knew and believed that the curse was real shudder.

Click, Maori Kogoro took out the recorder from the piano, turned it off and said, "What's the curse? The sound is not coming from this piano but from this recorder."

While Kogoro Mori was debating with them, Xingchen walked to the door leading to the beach and locked it, then looked at the water marks on the ground leading all the way behind the corpse.

What he could conclude at the moment was that this was a premeditated murder that took advantage of the curse.

After communicating with Conan about some of the problems he discovered.

Next is the hint given by the golden finger, Beethoven's sonata and music score.

Could it be that there is some secret in the music score, or some key evidence or something?

However, Conan began his reasoning.

Correctly demonstrated. If Xiaolan is not here, the scene will not be performed.

Specifically, there were traces of dragging on the ground from the door to the body. The ground was full of seawater, and there was also mud and sand on Mr. Kawashima's back.

Then judging from the fact that the door is locked, the first few minutes of the tape recorder should be blank.

I'm afraid that during the ritual, the criminal took Mr. Kawashima to the beach and drowned him, then moved the body to this room and locked the door.

Then when he pressed the recorder and was about to leave, he was suddenly interrupted by Chen.

He hurriedly jumped out of the window and left.

"Is that so, uncle?" Conan completely pushed the analysis of the reasoning to Kogoro Mouri.

Kogoro Mouri also mastered the reasoning as usual, and I felt that it was all because of what he taught him well.

Then according to Maori Kogoro's guess, they had just been waiting at the door for the end of the ritual, so the criminal was most likely someone at the ritual site.

Then, while Kogoro Mori was questioning them, the Mori elimination method was used.

They began to shirk responsibility involuntarily, and the current village chief pushed the incident onto Shimizu Masato in order to attack his rivals for village chief.

Masato Shimizu expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that you should be the one who should be most happy about his death.

While they were arguing, Maori Kogoro learned from Hirata Kazuaki that the piano was donated by Mr. Aso fifteen years ago.

It has been here ever since, and he said Mr. Aso's name is engraved on the lid.

Then, Kogoro Mouri discovered that there was a piece of music score inserted on the lid.

"This is music score. It's strange that it wasn't there when I looked at it during the day." Kogoro Mouri said as he picked up the music score.

When Xingchen saw the musical notes above, he thought, could this be the music score that Golden Finger mentioned?

Just as they were thinking about it, a skinny man with hedgehog hair in the crowd ran out like crazy.
