aboard

"Damn, why do I have to go to a place where I don't even know the authenticity of the letter of entrustment to investigate.\" Maori said helplessly, standing on the deck, holding his chin with his right hand.

\"And it's still this kind of island, it's all from that hateful letter.\" Maori looked at the vague island in the distance because of the dense fog that spread.

Things are still chasing the tide until yesterday.

\"On the night of the next full moon,Shadows will start to disappear again on Moonshadow Island.,Please investigate the reason.Write:Keiji Aso.\" Mori looked at the faith in his hand.

Then, not long after, the phone rang.

"Hey, yes, Maori Detective Agency.\" Maori said, picking up the phone.

\"The full moon is tomorrow, and all the fees have been remitted.\" A deep middle-aged man's voice appeared on the phone.

"Wait... Wait a minute, who the hell are you?\" Maori asked into the phone.

"Keiji Aso of Moonshadow Island.\" After saying that, the other side of the phone hung up the phone.

"Hey... Wait a minute, listen to me, hey...\" Maori said into the phone, but unfortunately there was nothing but the sound of a beep.

Then we go back to the present.

"Really, how can there be such a client who forces people to do things.\" Maori lit a cigarette and muttered to himself as he looked at Moonshadow Island, which was not far away.

\"I think it's good, because we haven't traveled for a long time, and this time we have such a good opportunity to come out and relax.Isn't it?Conan, Xiaobai.\" Behind Maori, Xiaolan, who was carrying a bag, said to Maori, and then looked at Conan and Xiaobai and asked.

\"Hmm.\" Conan also nodded with his bag on his back.

\"Sister Xiaolan, although leisurely is leisurely, Uncle Maori is here to investigate the case.\" Xiaobai does not have Xiaolan's joyful feeling, reminding Xiaolan of the purpose of coming to this island.

\"It's okay, Xiaobai, don't always act like a little adult, you have to learn from Conan, he is looking forward to this trip like me.\" Xiaolan squatted down and said to Xiaobai with her hands in her pockets.

\"...\" Xiaobai looked at Conan, who was smiling cutely beside him, and shuddered, this... Still don't think about it.

Registrar's Office

"Keiji Aso, it's weird that I can't find this name.\" A person in charge said as he looked for the village's household register.

"Please look carefully, here's a letter he sent me.\" Maori said as he pulled the letter of entrustment out of his pocket.

"But I'm really sorry, there is no registration of the person you mentioned, and I just came to this island, so I don't know about it.\" The person in charge said embarrassedly, touching the back of his head.

"What's going on?\" asked a man walking past the person in charge.

\"Yes, the director, according to this gentleman, he came here at the behest of the island's residents, but I searched for a long time and couldn't find the household registration of the person he said.\" The person in charge replied to the man whom he called the director.

"Please, can't find that person's household registration?" asked the man known as the director.

"Yes, it's a gentleman named Keiji Aso.\" replied the person in charge.

"What?\" The director was stunned for a moment.

\"Did you say Keiji Aso?\" and then shouted loudly with a pale face and a sign of fear.

\"Huh?\" Xiaobai looked at the people here, and he didn't know if it was because of the director's gaffe or if he heard Keiji Aso's name and whispered.

"There can't be such a thing, because... Because of him... He had died more than a decade ago.\" The Director gave the answer to his fears in horror.

"Hm?\" Maori and his party also froze when they heard the director's answer.

...

He was born on this island, he used to be a very famous pianist, it happened on a full moon night twelve years ago, after many years, he returned to his hometown to hold a piano recital in the village hall, but after the recital he suddenly closed himself to his family in his home, and also set a fire, it is said that he killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and in the raging flames he seemed to be entangled in something, he continued to play the piano, which is Beethoven's piano sonata \"Moonlight\".\" After the director took Mori and the others to a room, he explained to Mori and the others about Keiji Aso.

"Damn, so this letter is a letter of entrustment from the deceased.\" Maori said angrily as he took out the letter of entrustment from his pocket.

\"The deceased's letter of entrustment.\" Xiaolan grabbed Maori's shoulder and said in a trembling voice, it seems that girls are more afraid of this kind of supernatural thing.

"Damn, this must be someone's prank, I should burn it and go back to Tokyo.\" Maori said viciously as he slapped the letter on the table.

"Uncle, it's not necessarily a joke, maybe someone on the island asked you to investigate the cause of Mr. Keiji Aso's death.\" Conan said as he held the back of his head with his hands.

\"Uncle, Conan is right, and the postmark of that letter is also from Moonshadow Island, and the most important thing is that the commission fee is also really credited to Uncle's account.\" Xiaobai echoed Conan.

\"Yes, Dad, maybe it's just like what Xiaobai said to Conan.\" Xiaolan also cheered up and said to Maori.

\"Yes, it seems that this is indeed the case.\" Maori listened to Conan and Xiaobai's words, and then nodded.

"I'm so sorry I lost my temper in front of you.\" Maori retracted the letter and said to the director.

\"It's okay, I think anyone who encounters this kind of thing will be very angry, I understand Mr. Maori's situation very well.\" The director waved his hand, unconcerned about what had just happened, and replied.

\"So, let's take our leave.\" Maori asked a few more questions, and the group walked outside.

"Really, where do you start?" Maori walked out of the registry office, muttering to himself as he walked.

"Maybe you can ask the village chief to get some clues.\" Xiaolan put her right hand on her chin and thought about it.

"Yes, since I'm the village chief, I know a lot about this island.\" Maori said as he made a fist with his right hand and the palm of his left hand.

\"Hehe... Hehe... Uncle, this is common sense.\" Conan squinted at Maori as he squinted at the dead fish.

\"I remember, I just asked the director that the village chief lived in the public hall...\" Maori finished speaking, and the group walked around.

\"Well, Dad, are you sure you know where the embassy is?\" After walking for a long time, Xiaolan asked Maori beside her.

"Hmm...\" Maori was stunned.

\"Hehe, that's true.\" Conan and Xiaobai looked at Maori who was stunned, and knew that he didn't know where the public hall was going at all.

\"Really.\" Xiaolan muttered, looking at the person in the distance who was about to turn around and go back to the clinic.

\"I'm sorry, excuse me...\" Xiaolan trotted over and said to the woman in the white coat who was about to turn around and go in.

"Excuse me, where is the public hall?" Xiaolan asked the other party.

"Just go straight to the end of the corner and go straight to the end.\" The woman turned around and pointed with her left hand in the direction as she spoke, and Maori and the group looked in the direction the woman was pointing.

"By the way, are you from Tokyo?" asked the woman suspiciously.

"Yes, I came on the same boat.\" Lan replied.

"I was born in Tokyo, but this island is different from Tokyo.It's great, the air is so fresh, and it's very quiet.\" The woman said, and then opened her hands and made a natural gesture.

\"Shimizu, Shimizu Masato, please vote for Shimizu Masato.\" At this time, a van passed by Maori and others, and the horn was still shouting, and at this time, Maori and the woman and others on the opposite side maintained the appearance just now and did not make any changes, and the woman's white coat was also blown by the breeze because of the van from the side.

\"...\" Xiaobai was speechless, and seemed to be talking very quietly just now.

"But this is an exception, because the election of the village chief is about to take place, and it is usually quiet here.\" The woman explained as she looked at the van in the distance.

"Village chief election?\" Maori also turned his head to look at the van in the distance, and asked suspiciously.

\"Yes, the election of the village head, Mr. Shimizu, the representative of the fishermen who has cash, Mr. Kuroiwa, the current village head, who has recently lowered his evaluation, and Mr. Kawashima, the biggest bourgeoisie on the island.\" The woman replied.

"The opinions of the patients are all for Mr. Kawashima.\" The woman said to herself as she touched her chin with her left hand in a figure-eight shape.

\"Alright, Miss Nurse, that's fine, we're not interested in the village chief election at all.\" Maori waved his hand to stop the other party and continue to think.

\"I'm a doctor here, Narumi Asai, not a nurse.\I have a doctor's license.\" said the woman who called herself Narumi Asai.

\"It turned out to be a doctor...\" Maori shrugged his shoulders and seemed to be devastated.

"If you're going to the public hall, you can meet the three people I just mentioned, because tonight there will be a ceremony to commemorate the third anniversary of the death of the former village chief, Mr. Kameyama.\" Asai continued.

\"The former village chief...\"\"The third anniversary.\" Conan said the first sentence, and Mori followed the next sentence.

...

When the group came to the vicinity of the public hall, it was really lively, protests, speeches, verbal fights, and there was chaos everywhere.

"The current village chief is really not popular with everyone.\" Maori listened to the protests of the villagers as he walked into the public hall.

Meeting room

"Really, how long are we going to wait?" Muttered Maori as he extinguished his cigarette.

\"Strange, where's Conan?\" Ran looked around, but didn't seem to see Conan.

\"Conan, he just went there.\" Xiaobai said as he pointed in one direction to Xiaolan.

\"Really, running around again.\" Xiaolan also muttered, and several people walked in the direction that Xiaobai pointed.

\"Conan, you can't do this.\" When Xiaolan and the others found Conan, they saw Conan push open a door in front of him.

"What's the matter, hey, what a big room.\" Maori looked at the open door, walked in, looked at the piano not far away, and then walked to the window and looked out.

"Oh, there's the sea behind the public hall.\" Maori said, looking out the window.

"But why is this piano so dirty.\" Xiaolan said as she walked up to the piano.

"Just tidy it up a little bit.\" Conan said, looking at the piano.

"No... Don't touch.\" At this moment, a weak man with glasses walked in from outside the door and shouted.

\"Huh?\" Xiaolan was about to touch the piano when she heard the man's voice stop moving and looked at the man suspiciously.

"That piano is the cursed piano that Mr. Aso played at the recital on the day of his death.\" The man said as he pointed to the piano with a trembling hand.

\"Mr. Hirata, you mean cursed?\" Maori asked suspiciously, looking at the man who had just left.

"Because it's not just Mr. Aso, the same thing happened to the former village chief.\" explained the man known as Hirata.

"So, it's Mr. Isamu Kameyama who is doing today.\" Mori shrugged his shoulders and said slowly.

\"Yes, that happened two years ago.\" Hirata replied with his head down.

"It was a full moon night, and I happened to pass by this neighborhood, and no one was supposed to be in the public hall at that time, but there was the sound of someone playing the piano, and when I walked over to ask if anyone was there, the sound immediately stopped. The cause of death was a heart attack, and the piece that he had been playing before his death was Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata that Keiji Aso kept playing in the flames.

\"Because of this, from that time on, the villagers no longer dared to use this piano to play music, saying that it was cursed by Mr. Aso.\" Hirata paused for a moment, then continued to add.

\"It's really sad.\" Xiaobai walked in front of the piano, and then touched the piano and said.

"But this piano is no different at all.\" Conan said as he opened the lid and played it in a rambling manner.

\"Well, this voice.\" Xiaobai listened to the sound of the piano thoughtfully.

"Don't do that, kid, it's not good for everyone to hear it.\" Plane hurriedly ran over to Conan and said.

"But it's really nothing.\" Conan said innocently, his hands continuing to play.

"Hirata, what's going on?\" At this moment, a man's roar came from outside the door, accompanied by the footsteps of several people.

\"I'm so sorry, Mr. Hirata.\" Xiaolan hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Conan down and apologized.

\"No... It's okay.\" Hirata replied, touching the back of his head.

"Who gave you permission to touch that piano?" roared the man who walked in.

\"I'm sorry, Chief Kuroiwa, I didn't stop them.\" Hirata stepped forward and said.

"Really, this piano should have been destroyed.\" said the man next to Black Rock.

\"By the way, who are you?\" asked a woman who came in with her, looking at Maori.

\"They're from Tokyo.\" From behind the woman, Narumi Asai came out and replied.

"Hey, it's Mori Kogoro.This is the little girl Mori Ran, this is Conan who stays, and this is the nephew Mori Haku.\" Mori introduced himself to the other party and the people next to him.

\"Oh, by the way, this is the village chief, Mr. Kuroiwa, and...\" Narumi Asai also introduced the few people who came in.

\"Whoever you are, this cursed piano I want you to stop moving.\" After listening to Asai Narumi's introduction, Kuroiwa said to Mori and the others and prepared to walk outside.

"Cursed? Maybe not," Xiaobai said in a startling voice.

"Xiaobai.\" Everyone in the room looked at him.

The former village chief happened to die here, and then it happened to be heard \"Moonlight\" Sonata, and then it happened that this song was the same as the song played by Keiji Aso, who died before, and I looked at it and felt that it was not a curse, but artificial.\The best way to keep a secret is not to let people speak, and that kind of person is a dead person.\" Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

\"Xiaobai, don't talk nonsense.\"\"Ah...\" Xiaolan squatted down and looked at Xiaobai and said seriously.With a scream and running footsteps.

\"Mr. Nishimoto, what's the matter?\" Maori asked, looking at one of the missing people in the room.

"That's what he is," Reiko Kuroiwa replied.

\"Xiaobai, don't talk nonsense in the future.\" Xiaolan continued to remind Xiaobai.

"Hee-hee, these are the words that Conan once told me about Sherlock Holmes, and I felt that this thing was similar to what he said, so I said it unconsciously.\" Xiaobai touched the back of his head and said with a smile.

"I guess you kid said that.\" Uncle Maori pointed at Conan's head.

Conan's head was honored to have a mushroom planted.

\"Damn, when did I say that, and there is no such thing in Sherlock Holmes.\" Conan thought viciously as he touched his head, poor Conan. (Xiaobai has a black belly)

"Children are not sensible, don't take this matter to heart.\" Maori rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly.

\"Damn, come out with me, and a few of you, don't go into this room.\" Kuroiwa finished and walked out the door.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Mori.\" Hirata walked over and said to Mori with an apologetic tone, and the group walked out of the room.

\"The village chief, the bourgeoisie, and the unemployed, it's very problematic.But why is she like that?\" When he went out, Xiaobai thought to himself.
