Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Murder on Moonshadow Island IV
"Uh-oh, that's right." The village chief of Heiyan was stunned for a moment, and then replied weakly.
"Ah, the police are coming!" Mao Lilan panted and ran in with an old policeman who was also out of breath, panting as he spoke.
Seeing this, Maori Kogoro said, "Xiaolan, you're too slow!" ”
"Because he's not in the police station, I'm looking for him everywhere!" ”
The old policeman looked at the scene, lifted his glasses and said, "There has been a homicide!" ”
Looking at the appearance of the old policeman, Maori Kogoro knew that he couldn't rely on him at all, so he had to say to everyone: "Okay, all in all, it's late tonight, and the inquiry of the investigation will start tomorrow morning!" ”
After the villagers had left, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru glanced at Asai Narumi who had walked to the door, and saw that Mori Kogoro also had the intention of leaving, so he couldn't help but say, "Master Mori, I don't think it's suitable for us to leave now, you should take out the letter of entrustment and read it." ”
"Power of attorney?" Maori Kogoro was stunned for a moment, took out the letter of entrustment placed in the suit, looked at it, and said, "Yamamoto, is there any mystery in this letter of entrustment?" ”
"Shadows are starting to disappear!" Yamamoto Yoshitsuru looked at Asai Chengcheng again, who did not leave at the door, and said to Maori Kogoro: "The so-called shadow disappears, that is, it is shrouded in light, and the so-called light is only the meaning of the moonlight we heard here." ”
"That's right!" Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mori nodded and said, "Mr. Aso, who died in the flames twelve years ago, and the music played by the former village chief before his death three years ago, are all Beethoven's sonata moonlight." There are also three events that have happened so far, all next to the piano. ”
Speaking of this, Mori Kogoro walked up to the piano and said to himself, "There must be something hidden in this, and it has something to do with the piano." ”
"Since it's Beethoven's sonata moonlight, I think this score may be related." Yoshizuru Yamamoto nodded, walked over to the piano, and pointed to the sheet music placed on the piano case.
"Sheet music?" Maori Kogoro picked up the score and looked at it, groaned, and said to his daughter: "Xiaolan, come and play this score to see if there is any connection." ”
"Okay, Dad!" Mao Lilan answered, went to the piano and sat down, stood up the score, and played it accordingly.
"Bang bang"
"Knock knock!"
Listening to the harsh piano sound, Maori Kogoro said angrily: "Xiaolan, what are you doing?" Clumsy! ”
"No, no, no!" Mao Lilan tried to play it, and said, "It's this fourth section of the score, it's very strange! ”
"Fourth paragraph?!" Mori Kogoro and Conan listened and hurried up to take a look.
Picking up the sheet music on the piano case, Mori Kogoro said to himself, "If I'm not mistaken, this sheet has left a message from Mr. Kawashima, and if that's the case, the prisoner may come back to get it." ”
Listening to Maori Kogoro's words, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru couldn't help but say on the side: "Master Maori, do you think it is possible for a person who has been drowned to leave a murder message on his own initiative?" I think the message must have been left by the murderer. ”
"Left by the murderer?" Maori Kogoro was stunned when he heard this, then thought about the cause of the deceased's death, nodded and said: "Yamamoto, you are right, a person who has been drowned will never leave a so-called death message, this message must be left by the murderer." In other words, this should be a murder announcement. ”
"I think so, Master Maori, I'll leave it to you later, and I'll send Dr. Chengshi back." Yoshizuru Yamamoto said and hurried out of the room, catching up with Asai Nari in front and said with a smile: "Doctor Narumi, I'll send you back, and buy something to eat by the way." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Yamamoto." Asai smiled and did not refuse.
Walking in the moonlight in the dark night, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto looked at the woman next to him and asked, "Dr. Chengshi, do you have any thoughts on this case?" ”
"Opinion?" Asai Narumi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm just a doctor, what can I think." Reasoning about cases should be the job of detectives like Mr. Yamamoto and Mr. Mori, right? ”
"Of course, we'll find out who is responsible." Yoshitsuru Yamamoto smiled and nodded.
Asai Narumi nodded, changed the subject, and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, I really admire Conan's child's reasoning. To put it mildly, I think he's better than you and the Maori detectives. ”
"There's something you don't like to hear." Yoshizuru Yamamoto waved his hand and said meaningfully, "Maybe this is a fact in itself." ”
Asai Narumi shook his head and smiled: "How is that possible, you must know that Detective Maori is a detective, Mr. Yamamoto, you are a disciple of a detective, and you are also very powerful when you think about it, how can it not be as powerful as Conan." ”
"You can't just look at the surface." Yoshitsuru Yamamoto smiled and asked, "Dr. Narumi, I would like to ask, where are there any shops selling things at this point in the neighborhood?" It's better to be a restaurant or something, and I want to buy something for the Maori chef to eat. ”
"It's not far from the public hall, I'll go with you." Asai said with a smile.
"That's really a problem, doctor."
Under the leadership of Asai Narumi, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru came to a small restaurant in a private house, ordered some rice balls and side dishes, and chatted with Asai Narumi while waiting. As the more she talked, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto became more and more sure of her identity as a woman, if the other party was a man, there was no reason to be very familiar with women's cosmetics and the like, and her living habits and some knowledge were feminine, if it was a man, it would be really a problem. But if it's not a man, there is no reason why she would say that she is a man in the music score in the previous world, there must be some hidden secrets in this.
Half an hour later, when the boss cooked the meal, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto finished paying the bill and walked to the public hall with Narumi Asai. Originally, he wanted to send the other party back first, but she didn't want to go back at all, but wanted to go back to the public hall with him.
After arriving at the public hall, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru saw that Maori Kogoro and the others had already made the bed and quilt, and looked strict, and couldn't help but say: "Maori master, Xiaolan and Conan, you are all hungry, I brought something to eat back." ”
"Yamamoto is back, I'm really a little hungry when you say that." Mori Kogoro touched his stomach, untied the plastic bag containing the food, and directly took a rice ball and ate it.
The group sat down around, and Mao Lilan took a piece of rice ball and chewed it carefully, and said, "Yamamoto, when you were not there just now, Conan unlocked the code on the music sheet and discovered the meaning left by the murderer." ”
"Oh? Is it? Yamamoto Yoshitsuru pretended to be surprised and looked at Conan, and said with a smile: "Can you tell me what information the murderer left behind?" ”
"Of course!" Conan, who entered the state, didn't notice anything abnormal at all, nodded and said: "The rising and falling marks on the sheet music actually represent the meaning that the murderer wants to explain, put the English letters into the piano keyboard in order, and write the information to be conveyed on it in the form of musical notes in the form of musical notation." According to this clue, the score left at the scene of Mr. Kawashima's murder has become the phrase 'Understand, you're next'. ”
"That's amazing!" Asai Narumi, who was sitting on the side, said in surprise: "Conan, you are so powerful, you even know this." ”
Mao Lilan smiled and said, "It's okay, in fact, he has always liked reasoning." ”
Maori Kogoro nodded and said: "In other words, the murderer will at least kill one person, right, we have to cheer up and watch the scene of this crime, maybe there is something in here that we haven't found." ”
"I'm fine." Yoshizuru Yamamoto nodded, looked at Mao Lilan and said, "But Xiaolan, Conan, and Dr. Chengshi, I don't think there is any need to stay, you better go back to the hotel to rest, just me and Master Maori here." ”
Maori Kogoro said approvingly: "Yamamoto is right, Xiaolan, you can go back first, just leave it to me and Yamamoto here." ”
After thinking for a while, Mao Lilan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you and Yamamoto for Dad, and I'll go back with Conan and Dr. Chengshi in a while." ”
Hearing this, Asai honestly opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything.
After eating, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru first sent Moriran and Conan back to the hotel, and then sent Asai Narumi back.
Standing at the door of the clinic, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto said to Asai Narumi: "Dr. Narumi, get a good night's sleep, and when you wake up tomorrow, it will be a good day again." ”
"Well, Yamamoto, you too." Asai Narumi nodded in response, and after saying his blessing, he turned around and entered the clinic.
After Asai Narumi entered, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto turned to leave, although it was unlikely, he still hoped that the beautiful female doctor's hands would be stained with less blood.
