Riding a boat can be boring, especially when you have been on a boat for a long time and there is no entertainment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The uncle was bored, yawning as he watched the sea outside the deck.

So it's all to blame for the guy called Keiji Aso, if it weren't for the fact that he was forced to buy and sell like giving money first and then entrusting, the uncle wouldn't have to do such a boring thing.

And it is not known exactly what happened.

"On the night of the next full moon, shadows will start to disappear again on Moonshadow Island, please investigate the cause, Keiji Aso."

So what about the night of the full moon? What does the shadow refer to? What does it mean to disappear?

Well, on the face of it, it probably means that on the night of the full moon, someone will disappear.

So this is a murder trailer?

It doesn't look like it.

After all, if you want to kill someone, you won't find a detective to come, unless he is provoking.

But the uncle is not famous, and it is impossible to provoke a small person.

Although it is said that because of the case of the art museum before, the uncle is now slowly becoming famous.

But the commission was sent before the museum's case.

"I still can't figure it out!"

The uncle shook his head and sighed.

It is said that the unknown is the most terrifying, so let's wait until I meet the client and ask carefully.

In comparison, Xiaolan is looking forward to this journey.

After all, in the past, the family didn't have much savings, and it was rare to be able to go out and play.

Although this time it was also because of work, but it was the uncle's job, and it wasn't hers, so she could have taken Conan to play.

But for Conan, maybe it's more fun to follow the uncle to see what cases there are.

Regarding that letter, Conan actually had the same idea as his uncle, and wanted to wait until he met the client and then inquire in detail.

And Moon Shadow Island is already close at hand.

……

"Kei Aso......"

The staff of the village office carefully searched for the information book.

The uncle and his party came here, because there was no address on the letter, and there was no contact information, so they needed help from the village office.

Moon Shadow Island is not big or small, but there are still many households, and it won't work without the help of the people from the village office.

Patiently boarded up, uncle, they couldn't wait for the exact information of Keiji Aso.

Even the staff couldn't help but scratch their heads.

"It's strange, I can't find this person at all."

"How is it possible, please look carefully, there is a letter he sent me."

As he spoke, the uncle took out the letter from the pocket on the inside of his clothes, which he naturally carried with him.

This person on Moonshadow Island, called Keiji Aso, sent him a letter of entrustment, and even the commission money had already been paid in advance.

As a result, when I came here to find the client, I said that there was no such person.

Don't say it's just a joke, no one will joke with half a million neon coins, unless the other party is a local tyrant and is not bad for money.

But would a local tyrant make such a joke?

Even if he could, he wouldn't joke with the uncle, after all, the other party probably didn't know the uncle, and the uncle didn't know the other party.

Between people who know each other, that's called a joke, and between people who don't know each other, it's not a joke, it's something to do.

But after the staff looked carefully again, they still scratched their heads and looked embarrassed.

"I'm very sorry, but the name is not registered on the resident register, and I have just been on this island for a short time, so I am not very familiar with it."

In that case, it's a problem.

The uncle looked at the envelope in his hand, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Xiaolan and Conan stood quietly and watched, without expressing any opinions.

Just when everyone was silent, a man with glasses seemed to notice the situation here and walked over directly.

"What's wrong, did something happen?"

"Director."

When the staff saw this person, they immediately greeted him.

Then he explained.

"This gentleman said that he came here at the behest of the island's residents, and it was a gentleman named Keiji Aso."

"What? Keiji Aso, you say?! ”

The director, who didn't care much at first, felt like he had seen a ghost when he heard the name Keiji Aso, his face was full of shock, and he even subconsciously said it out loud.

Suddenly, the entire hall of the village office became quiet.

All the people looked at this side, as if they had heard something unbelievable.

Then, they whispered again.

The distance was too far away to hear clearly, but seeing the reactions and expressions of these people, there was no need to reason, Uncle and Conan knew.

There's definitely something wrong with that.

"No, absolutely impossible!"

The bespectacled director said with certainty, but his tone seemed to tremble a little.

The whole person's expression seemed to be a little scared.

"If anything, because this man died ten years ago!"

Yes, already dead.

This man, Keiji Aso, died ten years ago.

It was a man born on the island, very talented, and in the past, a well-known pianist.

On a full moon night twelve years ago, I returned to the island and held a piano recital in the public hall.

Something that is hard to forget happened right after the concert.

I remember that time, the concert was over and the audience dispersed.

But this man, Keiji Aso, was closed in his home with his family and set it on fire.

It is said that this man killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and in the raging flames, as if he was entangled in something, he continued to play the piano, and the piece was Beethoven's "moonlight".

The director who invited them to the lounge at the back told the uncle about the past ten years ago.

The reason why I say this is just to illustrate the fact that how can a dead man still send a letter of entrustment?

This is absolutely impossible, and no one believes that there will be such a thing.

Unless, hell with it.

Are there ghosts in the world?

No one can say for sure.

But one thing that the uncle can be sure of is that in many people's hearts, there are ghosts.

After listening to the story, the uncle, Xiaolan, and Conan left the village office and went outside.

Sitting under a cherry blossom tree, looking at the letter, there was silence for a long time.

Of course, a dead man will not send a letter to his uncle.

But my gut told the uncle that it wasn't a prank or something.

No one is going to take half a million neon coins to play a prank, and it involves a person who is long dead.

Letter of Entrustment, a man who died ten years ago.

Perhaps, this is who wants to let the uncle investigate the truth of the year.

After all, it's too suspicious, why would a person who is considered a successful person, a person with a wife and a daughter, and a person who was still doing concerts before, kill his wife and daughter after the concert is over, and then set himself on fire?

Unless that person is mentally ill.

But is this guy named Keiji Aso mentally ill?

It's impossible to know for sure, but it's unlikely.

"Dad, what now?"

Xiaolan, who found that the uncle had not moved for a long time, asked directly.

Now it's either a matter of putting this thing down, having some fun here, and going back.

Either way, just investigate it, but how to investigate it, that's also a question.

Conan also waited for the uncle's answer, and if the uncle was unwilling to investigate, he would persuade the uncle.

It's just that the uncle's character is still passable, and the money has been collected, not to mention the investigation of the case or anything, as long as the client is found out, the money is returned to him, or the commission is officially accepted.

"Let's go to the public hall and ask the village chief here."

Uncle made a decision.

If it's the village chief, then he should know a lot of things back then, even if he doesn't know, you can ask him what friends and relatives Keiji Aso had back then, and then go to those relatives and friends to ask.

Moreover, maybe the person who sent the letter was among the relatives and friends of Keiji Aso.
