Chapter Fifty-Four: A Pseudo-Girl's Sonata Between Songs
"Damn it, how long will I have to wait!"
Mori Kogoro, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand impatiently, and muttered angrily, Uncle Maori is not a good temper, and the consequences if he gets angry are very serious. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
And Xiaolan on the side looked around and said, "Strange, where is Ke Lan?"
Then, Xiaolan saw Ke Lan's figure walk into a room, and hurriedly ran over and said, "No." ”
"What's wrong..... This room is so big. Oh..... Behind the public hall is the sea. It wasn't interesting for Mori Kogoro to stay by himself, so he followed, and with that, he walked straight into the house.
Xiaolan walked to the front of the piano and said, "This piano is so dirty." ”
Ke Lan looked at the piano in front of him strangely and said, "This just needs to be sorted out a little." ”
Just when Xiaolan was about to touch the piano, Hirata Hirata, the secretary of the village chief at the door, suddenly ran over and said.
"No...... You can't touch that piano!"
"Huh?" Ke Lan and the others looked at the village chief's secretary Hirata who suddenly ran over suspiciously.
"That piano, which Mr. Aso used on the day of his death, is ...... It's a cursed piano, you can't touch it!"
"Why do you say it's cursed?" asked Ke Lan, confused.
Kazuaki Hirata explained: " And not only Mr. Aso, but even the former village chief happened to the same thing, that is what I saw with my own eyes, two years ago, that night I happened to be near here, because I heard the sound of the piano and ran over, as soon as I opened the door, I found the former village chief lying on the piano and died, it was said that the cause of death was a heart attack, and at that time, what I heard was Beethoven's moonlight sonata, the same as Mr. Aso played when he was burned to death, and since then, this piano has been called the piano of the curse!"
Ke Lan didn't believe that this piano was cursed? Thinking about it, he opened the piano cover, pressed it casually, jingle ~~ and said indifferently: "This piano is no different!"
Seeing this, Xiaolan immediately hugged Ke Lan, thinking helplessly, children are naughty.
"All in all, believe it or not, but before the end of the ritual, please wait at the entrance, the village chief will receive you after the ritual, now you don't run around anymore!"
Secretary Hirata said this, and said to everyone who had been invited out of the piano room with a warning face.
At this moment, Asai Narumi, well, it was the young doctor with a ponytail, she walked over with a middle-aged man, and when she saw Xiaolan and the others, she couldn't help but speak.
"Yo, you're still here!"
Seeing Chengshi, the kind Xiaolan also greeted with a smile.
"Miss Chengshi, are you also here to participate in the ceremony?"
"Yes, because when I came to this island, the first corpse I saw was the former village chief, so I wanted to come and burn incense. ”
Cheng Shi said and pointed to the middle-aged man next to him.
"This is Mr. Shimizu, the one I mentioned to you just now. ”
"First time we met, I'm Shimizu, please advise. ”
Then he chatted with Mori Kogoro and the others while rushing to the hall where the business was done.

................
At the transcendent ceremony, Kuroiwa said to Kawashima, who was kneeling next to him, "Kawashima, you hired a detective to spy on my heart, right?"
When Kawashima heard this, he smiled disdainfully, "How is it possible!" and then stood up and left.
Hei Yan looked at Kawashima, who was about to leave, and said angrily, "You want to escape, don't you?"
And Kawashima didn't look back, "I'm going to the toilet." "And left.
At this time, Mori Kogoro and others were sitting at the door of the public hall. Xiaolan hugged Ke Lan and leaned on the stone pillar, and Ke Lan was lying on Xiaolan's soft body with a happy face, of course, this was Xiaolan's own initiative to hug Ke Lan, probably because she had heard too many ghost stories such as cursed pianos during the day, and it was already dark, Xiaolan was very scared alone, so she would have a sense of security when she hugged a cute Ke Lan in her arms.
Although Ke Lan was enjoying Xiaolan's warm embrace, he was also thinking quietly.
'Strange?...... The piano must have been useless for years, but when I played it just now, the sound was normal, probably someone secretly adjusted the rhythm, maybe for some purpose. Also, what did Uncle Maori's letter mean? code words? not - teasers?.... On the next Full Moon, shadows will begin to disappear again on Lunaris Island. Today is the full moon! The weather is fine these days, and there are stars and moon at night! What will happen in the midst of this?.... And since just now, I have felt restless, as if something is going to happen?..... Is it a delusion?'
Ke Lan looked up at the stars in the sky, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
The people who were doing the transcendental ritual in the hall suddenly heard the sound of a piano, and a man kneeling in one of them with his hair tied up trembled when he heard the sound of the piano.
Hei Yan on the side also looked up nervously and said, "This song..... This tune is...."
At this time, Ke Lan, who was thinking, also heard the sound of the piano, and suddenly his eyes coincided with the moonlight in the sky, as if he thought of something, and roared.
"Oops!!"
The petite body jumped out of Xiaolan's arms and ran in the direction of the piano room.
"Kelan, what's wrong?" Xiaolan and Maori Kogoro didn't know why, but they also followed.
As a result, Ke Lan pushed open the door and found that he saw Hideo Kawashima, the entrepreneur on Moon Shadow Island, lying on the piano, it was the same Kawashima who had just gone to the toilet, his body was wet, as if he had just been soaked in water, and there was still the moisture of sea water in the air.
Ke Lan had an angry expression on his face.
"Damn, it's too late~~!"
Mori Kogoro hurriedly pushed everyone in, checked on Kawashima, sighed, and said, "It's too late, it's hopeless." ”
The people outside the door all shouted loudly, and Kuroiwa Chenji's face was very surprised and ugly.
"Xiaolan, hurry up and inform the police!" said Maori Kogoro to Xiaolan. Xiaolan nodded and ran out.
Afterwards, Mori Kogoro said to Narumi, "Dr. Narumi, please come and examine this corpse." ”
"Okay!" Sung Shi nodded.
By the way, the letter has already predicted that on the night of the full moon, there will be people on this Moon Shadow Island who will disappear, and disappearing is death. This is a premeditated murder, damn it...... 'Ke Lan thought with anger burning in his heart, and his delicate face was also covered with frost.
Ke Lan is so angry because, knowing that there was a murder, the murderer had already sent a notice, that is, the letter from Uncle Maori, but he didn't stop it, it's too hateful.
"Curse, this is the curse of that piano!" said Kuroiwa's secretary Hirata, and his words immediately caused a response, and everyone's hearts were cold.
Maori Kogoro snorted disdainfully and said, "Where is there any curse, don't talk nonsense." Isn't this the tape recorder? ”
With that, Kogoro Mori took out a tape recorder from the piano and said to everyone. "Judging by the events of the present and the events of two years ago, this is a planned killing. ”
But apparently these people don't believe it, and there is a lot of skepticism underneath.
A guy in a hat in the crowd said, "Don't say anything nonsense, some killings. And who are you?"
Maori Kogoro confidently straightened his suit and said triumphantly: "I'm a detective from Tokyo, Maori Kogoro." ”
But there was no response from Maori Kogoro's imagination, but a cacophony.
"Oh, space pilots?"
"I've never heard of it. ”
"Seems like a famous pilot?"
"No, it's the protagonist of a detective story. ”
...............................
Maori Kogoro's nose is almost crooked, a group of uninformed hillbillies, they haven't even heard of their own name.
And Ke Lan tilted his head to carefully inspect the environment of the scene, looked at the water stains on the ground, dipped a little, put it in his mouth, and muttered.
"Did you drown?.....
