Conan Moslin

Since I met an acquaintance, it was natural to chat about recent events.

However, the incident on Tsukikage Island happened too quickly and too bizarrely, and the two had no interaction with Kogoro Mori, so they just said hello.

"Mr. Maori has become very famous recently. We have both heard about it." Murasawa Shuichi took Reiko's arm and found a seat next to them. "Although there has been no news about Miss Kuroba recently, I think she must be concentrating on studying magic and preparing to make a big splash. Am I right?"

After not seeing you for a long time, this gentleman has become more talkative.

Li An glanced at the rings on their hands and smiled with some blessings: "It's been a long time since we last met. It seems that your relationship has taken a step forward. Congratulations."

Hearing this, Kuroiwa Reiko's mood improved.

She glanced at Murasawa, turned around, and said in a much gentler tone than the last time they met: "Ignore his politeness."

"He said he was hit on the head in his dream and had a headache for several months. He even became more savvy in his speech and could speak in a coherent manner."

The concussion in the illusion...will not be brought out, just like the death in the illusion will not cause death in reality.

If one day he dreams of repairing a piano and getting hit and suffers a concussion in real life... that's purely psychological.

"Lingzi..."

"It's my turn to speak."

Murasawa Shuji shut up in grievance.

Ms. Reiko Kuroiwa has not changed.

Li An listened to the two people bickering casually and quickly got to the point.

"When I returned to the island later, I heard that Dr. Chengshi had joined your magic troupe? And thanks to the psychiatrist he recommended, my father's illness has improved a lot."

From the subsequent police investigation and evidence collection, Kuroiwa Reiko learned the identity of Asanari Minoru and also learned about the grudge between him and her family twelve years ago.

This case was rather old and involved marine poison, so it was later transferred to officers from other groups. This was also the reason why Officer Megure was unaware of Dr. Chengji's situation when he was in the library.

Reiko Kuroiwa was unaware of Dr. Chengji's murder plan.

Therefore, although I cannot understand why Dr. Chengshi dressed as a woman, I am still somewhat grateful to him.

"My father may not be able to come out after this, and Dr. Cheng Shi probably doesn't want to see his family again. But since you saw someone he knew, please convey my gratitude to him, Miss Kuroba."

Thank you? I'm glad Dr. Aso didn't intend to kill me.

Even so, Li An still thought for a moment and nodded in response: "I understand."

"I wonder how Mr. Kuroiwa's condition is now?"

Kuroiwa Reiko thought about it and felt that there was nothing she couldn't say: "She has recovered, but there are still some sequelae."

"He kept saying that Dr. Aso had killed him...but the police thought he was talking nonsense, so these words were not accepted as evidence."

"Does the psychologist have any explanation for this?" Li An asked again.

Kyosuke Fudo, a psychologist who was introduced to the police by Asanari Minoru during the Tsukikage Island incident, is responsible for the treatment of three people who suffered from sudden illnesses.

He had been responsible for the hysterical amaurosis suffered by the girl who was kidnapped on the day of the campus festival, and was also recommended by Dr. Ogawa to Kurian who suffered from temporary aphasia.

Li An has heard this person's name more than once.

Kuroiwa Reiko continued, "The doctor said that it might be due to accidentally seeing someone who looked like Keiji...Mr., causing excessive shock, but there was no substantial evidence, and the preliminary diagnosis was delusional disorder."

It's just paranoia.

People cannot escape guilt, and they cannot leave the hospital, it’s okay.

"Sorry, I shouldn't ask so many questions." Li An apologized and quickly changed the subject. "By the way, does Mrs. Murasawa have any other destinations for her honeymoon?"

Kuroiwa Reiko, who should probably be called Murasawa Reiko now, smiled sweetly when she heard this: "We are still planning to go..."

Murasawa Shuichi, who was standing by, pulled his pigtails, took a big gulp of wine, and was immediately scolded by Reiko.

"Monday! Don't drink too much!"

"I see."

Hearing this, Murasawa Shuichi, who felt left out, grinned and laughed.

……

"Finally the noise outside has stopped."

Haibara Ai closed the door of room 1904 and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ms. Akiko Sayama and Mr. Maeda started arguing when they came back, and now they have left Satoshi Maeda outside the door.

She just turned around and heard the heated discussion between the two old people in the house, and she rubbed her forehead unconsciously.

We have been chatting since the afternoon, and we are still chatting after dinner...

It turned out that there was a reason why Li An asked her to come and supervise the two of them chatting.

……

On the other side, Ran Mouri took Conan to the top-floor observation deck at the invitation of Maeda Satoshi, who was locked out by Sayama Akiko.

Looking out from the window of the observation deck, the night ocean and the starry sky are almost the same color, with stars shining and sparkling.

"Wow...what a beautiful starry sky."

"Yes, but I can't compare with you."

Sparks were about to burst from Conan's forehead.

Maeda Satoshi touched the back of his head and smiled, "You don't mind, do you?"

No!!! I mind!!!

Conan, who had not expected to hear such words, roared in his heart, grabbed the shoulders of the two men and squeezed in, holding on to the railing with his hands.

"Excuse me——"

"Wow, oh. The sea water is so dark. The sea water is really scary at night..."

It's a pity that no one else saw such a scene.

"Conan!" Xiaolan was helpless.

Conan insisted on his own way and refused to leave.

Maeda Satoshi was slightly stunned, and then he heard Mao Lilan ask: "Mr. Maeda, how did you get to know Ms. Sayama?"

"We have known each other since we were little, and his brother and I are good friends who can talk about anything."

"But he died three years ago."

"Ms. Sayama's brother died three years ago?"

Maeda Satoshi nodded, his tone somewhat sad: "He jumped from the building where he worked."

"There were shoes left on the roof, and he left a suicide note."

is suicide.

Conan suddenly thought of Mr. Jincheng’s deceased child and didn’t know what to say.

Why do I always run into people like this...

Sister Li An is the same... Considering her request to find Uncle Maori, there seems to be something strange about her father's death.

So when she came to Uncle Maori before, she actually asked him to find someone?

But after I told her about that person last time, she hasn't made any move since.

Neither the commission was revoked nor the investigation was followed up.

I don't know what these people are thinking...

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

After a while, Conan couldn't stand the strange atmosphere anymore and broke it: "By the way, Xiaolan, where is uncle at this time?"

"Oh, I just saw him with that woman." Maeda Satoshi heard, "It was Miss Kamijou from Room 2102."

"Ah, that's it..."

They didn't know how long they chatted, and Maeda Satoshi looked at the time.

"It's already so late."

"Well, I think I should go back to my room. I think Akiko should have calmed down by now."

He smiled and waved to Xiaolan, then rubbed Conan's head.

"Besides, if I continue to stay by your side, I think this little bodyguard next to you might start to speak soon."

Maeda Satoshi silently withdrew his hand and waved at the two of them.

"Good night, then."

Before he left, Conan suddenly called him: "Wait a minute! Do you know what a virus is?"

"Virus? The common cold virus?"

"……never mind."

"Why are you asking such a weird question?"

"Hehe... By the way, shall we go find Sister Li An? It's almost time to go back and rest."
