Chapter 17: Murder on Lunaris Island 4
"According to the preliminary examination, the deceased should have been killed in the first few minutes before being found. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Dr. Sung Si told the results of his examination.
"Nope! It's not like that."
Ken Nishimoto said in horror.
"It wasn't until I opened the door that Kuroiwa drew the final strokes of the score. Then, the playing light on the announcer suddenly turned on, and then the music started. It's Aso! That's right, it's Aso who is asking for his life! β
Ken Nishimoto squatted on the ground against the wall and said in horror with his head in his hands.
"The blood on the ground didn't clot, and there was no blank part in front of the tape! And there's only one staircase leading to the outside of the broadcast room! β
"I ran up when I heard the piano, and there was no one else on the second floor but Mr. Nishimoto. In this case, Mr. Nishimoto is the biggest suspect. And if not for him. Then, it is also possible that the murderer hid in a corner on the second floor, waiting for everyone to hear the sound of the piano and run to the second floor to check the situation, and blend into the crowd. β
"Damn, is the method the same as the previous one!"
Conan thought solemnly.
"And, if you have the strength to write such a long sheet music, why don't you climb outside and call for help?"
Conan thought puzzled again.
Officer Twilight gathered everyone into the lobby on the first floor.
After the victim is killed, Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata will be played at the scene, and judging from the current modus operandi, the murderer of Mr. Kawashima and Mr. Kuroiwa is likely to be the same person. Moreover, according to Mr. Nishimoto's account, Mr. Nishimoto should have been killed a few minutes before he was found, that is, around 6:30. β
"In other words, at that time, everyone in this public hall was suspicious."
"And these people, in addition to Mr. Mori, there are Mr. Ken Nishimoto who was the first to find the body, Dr. Narumi Asai who performed the autopsy for us just now, Mr. Kazuaki Hirata, the secretary of the village chief Kuroiwa who was killed, Miss Reiko Kuroiwa, the daughter of the village chief, and her fiancΓ©, Mr. Murasawa Monday, as well as Mr. Shimizu Masato, a candidate for village head, and finally Mr. Bo Feng Yibin."
Officer Twilight told everyone what he had reasoned.
"Hey! Wait a minute. I'm going to be a suspect too! Joke! I've been being interrogated by you since about 6:20! β
When he heard that the police thought that he was also a suspect, Reiko Kuroiwa was very dissatisfied and said loudly.
"That's it! Although I left Xiaolan and went to the toilet at about half past six, I didn't know the victim at all. Besides, I only came here today, and I didn't even go to the public hall yesterday! β
Yibin also complained dissatisfied.
"Indeed, it is impossible for you to commit a crime"
After hearing the words of Heiyan Lingzi and Bo Feng Yibin, he said with a confused expression.
"Then Dr. Chengshi is the same, because we've been together since six o'clock."
Xiaolan defended Chengshi beside her.
"Mr. Nishimoto, you were the first to discover Mr. Kuroiwa's body, I would like to ask you, what kind of place did you come to visit? It's very suspicious! β
Twilight stared at Ken Nishimoto sternly and asked.
"It was Black Rock who called me over!"
Ken Nishimoto explained very nervously.
"Humph! He called you over, so you went and killed him! Right! β
Kogoro questioned next to Nishimoto.
"No, it's not me!"
Nishimoto defended nervously.
"It's Shimizu! If it weren't for my dad and Kawashima, the position of village chief would have become Mr. Shimizu's! β
Reiko Kuroiwa pointed his finger directly at Masato Shimizu.
"Hey, I've heard that there will be suspicious scores at the crime scene, and it's been so long since you all had a problem cracking the score?"
"That. . . Hehe.. β
Hearing Yibin's complaint, both Twilight and Kogoro Mori smiled awkwardly.
After all, as police officers and detectives, they really didn't crack that very obvious clue.
"Don't even think about running"
Conan said suddenly.
When everyone looked at Conan, he continued.
"It's a code that is very simple if you know how to knock on the door. Starting from the left side of the piano keyboard, put the English letters in order at a time, and write the message you want to convey on the top of the score in pinyin, according to this clue. The score at the scene of Mr. Kawashima's murder means: Don't even think about running."
"You're amazing. Conan! β
Xiaolan complimented.
"So, what about the score that you just wrote in blood?"
Kogoro hurriedly asked.
"The judgment of iniquity is taken away today."
Conan found today's sheet music translated to.
"The judgment of sin should not refer to the pianist who set the **** on fire twelve years ago!"
Kazuaki Hirata, secretary to the village chief, guessed.
"Which guy is it! Keiji Aso's revenge is here! β
Mr. Nishimoto said fearfully.
"Keiji Aso is already dead, and the bones found at the scene of the fire at that time have also been compared with the shape of the teeth, and it is absolutely true that it is their family. Everything was burned down, and all that was left was the sheet music in the fireproof safe. β
The old policeman walked in from the outside and said.
"Huh? Music? Where is it? Where are those scores now? β
Kogoro asked hurriedly.
"It's in the warehouse of the public hall, and the key to the warehouse is in the police station."
The old policeman was frightened by Kogoro's momentum and said in a panic.
"Then why don't you hurry up and get it!"
Officer Twilight said angrily to the old policeman.
"Ahh Be! β
After saying that, the old policeman hurriedly ran out.
"I'll go too!"
Conan saw this and ran out.
The old policeman went out for a long time and never came back. In the end, the police asked everyone to go back. The investigation will continue during the day tomorrow.
Yi Bin hung far behind Ken Nishimoto, in a place where no one was, he used his telekinesis to control a rope to hang Ken Nishimoto in the air, and then transported it to the piano room of the public hall.
And when he arrived at the public hall, he strangled the village chief's secretary Kazuaki Hirata, who was inspecting the piano in the piano room, with his mental power.
Let Nishimoto Ken lie on the piano, and let Kazuaki Hirata lie on the floor under the piano.
Then, leave a sheet of music: Judgment for Sin. End!
and left four cards with black crystal balls around the corpse. Then leave.
Chengshi walked on the way to the public hall.
"Sin will be punished in the end! Even if the law does not fail to eliminate evil, there is still the way of heaven! β
A figure standing in the shadows said in a hoarse voice.
"They didn't die because of you! but their due retribution. If you still have the condemnation of the heart. As a qualified doctor, save more people in need of salvation and make up for the broken scars in your heart! β
"There are still many people in the world waiting to be saved. An unfallen person should not spend the rest of his life in prison. β
After saying this, Chengshi found that the figure slowly disappeared into the shadows.
"Thank you!"
With a card in his hand, Chengshi looked at the figure that disappeared in the shadows on the side of the road, leaving two lines of tears.
Murasawa found the body in the room on Monday when he secretly went to the piano room to tune the piano. The news was immediately reported to the police.
The police, Kogoro and his entourage all came to the public hall.
"Damn! It's this guy again. β
Officer Twilight is frowning as he holds four cards with crystal balls on them that he picked up from the corpse.
"Damn, you actually kill people again and again in front of me!"
Conan looked at the code left on the music next to the corpse: Judgment of sin. End!
Conan found the score left by Keiji Aso, and after cracking the score, he learned that Narumi Asai was actually Minoru Aso, the son of Keiji Aso.
Conan anesthetized Kogoro with an anesthetic needle, and then used Kogoro's voice to explain the murder and the reason for the time of Keiji Aso twelve years ago.
"Keiji Aso was actually killed twelve years ago. He was killed by Mr. Nishimoto, Mr. Kuroiwa, Mr. Kawashima, and Mr. Kameyama, the former head of the village. β
"The four of them took advantage of Keiji Aso's overseas performance and asked him to buy ****** from abroad and hide it in the piano and bring it back."
"Finally, Mr. Aso said that he would not go far to help them, and the four of them were afraid that the matter would leak out, so they killed all of Keiji Aso's family in Keiji Aso's house and set fire to the house."
"These things are written on the score. And these scores are the suicide notes written by Keiji Aso to his son. β
"Keiji Aso, he also has a son who is hospitalized in a hospital in Tokyo, and Keiji Aso's son's name is! Masheng is real! β
"That's right, Dr. Asai Narumi, you should be the son of Keiji Aso, Asami. And the name Asai is probably the surname of your adoptive parents, right? β
Conan said everything in Kogoro's voice.
"You mean, it's all about revenge, right? So Dr. Chengshi hired a professional killer to kill all four of them! β
Officer Twilight asks a sleeping Mori Kogoro.
"Wait a minute. Officer Twilight, Mr. Mori just told Dr. Serumi about his former identity as a god, and the true circumstances of Keiji Aso's death twelve years ago. β
"But none of that helps. The method by which the murderer disappeared from the scene of the crime after the murder is unknown, and there is no key evidence to prove that Dr. Sungsil hired the killer. β
"Moreover, Secretary Kazuaki Hirata has nothing to do with the case twelve years ago, so why was he also killed?"
"The only clue that can prove that Dr. Narumi is related to this case is that he is the son of Keiji Aso. We can't just put the charge of hired murder on an innocent person just because of this one. β
Hearing that Officer Mudu directly charged Dr. Chengshi with murder by hire, Yibin immediately stood up to defend Chengshi.
And heard Yi Bin's words. Officer Twilight and Conan fell silent.
Indeed, until now, no crucial evidence has been found to prove the murderer. And it was only the mysterious card found at the scene of Ken Nishimoto and Kazuaki Hirata at the end that proved that the case was related to the killer "Black Crystal".
There is no evidence that the killer was any of the people present.
At the same time, there is no evidence to prove whether Chengshi actually hired the "dark crystal". Everything is speculation.
In the end, the time of this killing can only be positioned as a vendetta, and the murderer is the mysterious killer "Black Crystal". The history of the crime of "Black Crystal" was announced to the police system again.
