Stay away from Conan

Chapter 641 New Musical Score

At present, although it is not clear whether the death of the two deceased Ken Nishimoto and Hideo Kawashima was really just an accident, there are people on the island who want to use the "Curse of the Piano" to create chaos, and they also want to determine what happened on the island. There are questions about who else is involved in the smuggling of illegal drugs.

Therefore, under Gao Yuan's suggestion, the police and the people from the Narcotics Control Department chose to wait and see what happens——

People from the Narcotics Control Department pretended to be police officers who landed on the island together and cooperated with the police's actions. The police deliberately pretended not to know the hidden story behind the whole incident. During the interrogation, they still believed that Ken Nishimoto's death was not related to the scene. The sound of "Moonlight" is interrogated in relation to this point.

In this way, normally, the villagers who accepted the interrogation would naturally associate Nishimoto Ken's death with the "curse of the piano".

At the same time, because the drowning death of Hideo Kawashima occurred last night, this was something that the villagers did not understand. During the police interrogation, little details were gradually revealed, and the villagers who had completed the interrogation also Whispers began about the death of Hideo Kawashima——

In particular, when they learned about Hideo Kawashima's death, the second movement of "Moonlight" also sounded at the scene.

This was also deliberately revealed by Gao Yuan after discussing with the police. Although he did not disclose all the details, as long as the villagers knew that Kawashima Hideo's death was also related to "Moonlight", public opinion on the island would naturally begin to ferment. ——

Although it is unclear what the purpose of the person who played the second movement of "Moonlight" last night was, this could also allow the person behind the scenes to misjudge what the police knew.

Because, if Ken Nishimoto's death is really caused by his accidental inhalation of an overdose of illegal drugs, and Hideo Kawashima simply died of drowning, then it can be said that there is no doubt about this incident in the eyes of the police. Well, the basic logic is what Kogoro said last night.

However, this alone cannot explain the second movement of "Moonlight" played at the radio station last night.

Logically speaking, this could not just be someone's prank, but more likely, it was the chaos created by other characters related to the smuggling of illegal drugs on the island, with the purpose of attracting everyone who was in the community center at the time.

After all, the music played at the radio station can only be heard by people in two places. The island office where the radio station is located theoretically should have no one there at night, so the other party’s goal is actually obvious, which is the community activity center. .

Therefore, combined with the existence of smuggling of illegal drugs on the island, and the presence of illegal drugs was indeed found in the piano in the community activity center, it is obvious that under such circumstances, those who smuggle illegal drugs cannot just let those who Illegal drugs continue to be stored there. After all, it is too dangerous. Once discovered by the police, the entire island will inevitably be closely investigated.

Based on this judgment, theoretically speaking, those who smuggle illegal drugs cannot know that their illegal transactions have been targeted by the police and the Narcotics Control Department, and it is even impossible to think that Gao Yuan and others have discovered it. He learned the secret of the piano.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Gao Yuan and the police agreed to treat the police as if they were still confused by the mysterious deaths of Ken Nishimoto and Hideo Kawashima, and to lead those who were smuggling illegal drugs to reveal their flaws.

In this regard, Conan, who knew the plan, heard that the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji had begun arranging people to deal with the piano, which made Conan think about it——

After all, Kuroiwa Tatsuji was mentioned in the music score left by Aso Keiji. He was one of the four people who smuggled illegal drugs and eventually killed Aso Keiji.

At this moment, outside the interrogation room, those who have not yet been interrogated, in addition to Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Hirata Kazuaki, are Kuroiwa Tatsuji's daughter Kuroiwa Reiko, her fiancé Murasawa Monday, and another village mayor candidate People with clear water and integrity.

After Kuroiwa Tatsuji gave Hirata Kazuaki's instructions, soon it was Kuroiwa Tatsuji's turn to go in for questioning.

Just like that, Conan, who stayed outside and was always paying attention to the reactions of the other people after Kuroiwa Tatsuji said he planned to get rid of the piano, saw that Kuroiwa Reiko and Murasawa Monday behaved very normally, just being affectionate and clingy all the time. Together, they look like a loving couple.

The other village chief’s secretary, Hirata Kazuaki, seemed a little restless at this point——

Kazuaki Hirata, who had always had the strongest reaction to the cursed piano, now asked himself to get rid of the piano. From a certain point of view, it was not incomprehensible that he would feel scared.

However, since Gao Yuan mentioned Hirata Kazaki's doubts last night, Conan couldn't help but pay serious attention to him at this moment.

Perhaps it was because Kuroiwa Tatsuji had been questioned inside for too long. Hirata Kazaki, who was restless, was a little nervous. He couldn't help but began to fumble in his pockets, and then he seemed to realize something. Hirata Kazaki looked slightly nervous. And timidly, he said to the police officer guarding here:

"Please, please... I've finished smoking my cigarettes, can I go out and buy some?"

As he said this, he seemed very nervous. While he was rubbing the back of his head, cold sweat began to break out on his head.

In this regard, the police did nothing to stop him and just let him go out to buy cigarettes.

Looking at this scene, Conan couldn't help but quickly jumped off the chair. He looked at Ran and Asai Shimizu who seemed to have been here for too long and looked very sleepy, so Conan didn't say anything to them. Xiaolan warned, and then followed Hirata and Ming out alone——

When we came to the outside of the island office, there was a vending machine set up against the wall at the corner.

Hirata Kazaki came here slowly, took out his wallet from his pocket, and was about to buy a pack of cigarettes——

"Uncle... there seems to be some white powder on your sleeves..."

At this time, Conan followed Kazaki Hirata out and pretended to buy a drink in front of the vending machine. He thought for a moment and thought about the strange attitude of Hirata Kazaki towards the piano curse that Gao Yuan mentioned last night. Conan revealed With an innocent expression, he said this, thinking that maybe he could use this to deceive something——

"What!"

However, as soon as Conan said this, Hirata Kazuaki, who had been calm and prepared to pay for cigarettes, immediately blurted out in shock.

For a moment, Hirata and Mingzheng raised their hands in panic, ready to check whether there was really white powder left on their cuffs. However, they were so panicked that they couldn't even hold the wallet in their hands.

Just like that, the wallet in Hirata Kazaki's hand accidentally fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the coins in the wallet naturally fell to the ground and scattered everywhere——

In this regard, noticing Hirata Kazaki's strange attitude, Conan knew that the other party really had a problem. When he was about to lower his head to help pick up the coins of the other party, suddenly, Conan noticed that among the coins on the ground, there were actually Many foreign currencies——

"Wow! So many foreign coins!"

Seeing this, Conan exclaimed loudly, showed an envious expression, and asked curiously:

"Uncle, do you often go abroad?"

"this……"

Hearing Conan ask this, Hirata Kazuaki, who bent down to pick up the coins, said with an embarrassed look:

"No. It's just that I have a hobby of collecting coins from various countries!"

After saying that, after picking up all the coins, Hirata Kazaki hurriedly put away his wallet. Without even buying a cigarette, he turned around and walked towards the office room——

"This kid..."

Seeing the innocent look of Conan, the gloom on Hirata Kazuaki's face flashed away, and he did not continue to pay too much attention to it.

However, at this moment, the sound of a piano suddenly sounded, casting a shadow over the island office where the police were currently investigating.

In a panic, Hirata Kazuaki, who had only calmed down a little, had a complexion change and was trembling all over before he could step into the door of the office——

"This, this, this song..."

Somewhat incoherent, Hirata Kazaki showed an expression of disbelief and looked up to the second floor, where the sound came from-

There should be the broadcast station on the second floor of the office.

At the same time, the sudden sound of the piano also made everyone else in the office change their expressions.

Among them, Kuroiwa Reiko seemed to be greatly frightened, and leaned against Murasawa Zhouyi in a panic, hoping to get some comfort.

On Monday, Murasawa, facing such a situation, while comforting Kuroiwa Reiko's emotions, felt a little strange and murmured:

"This is...the third movement of "Moonlight"..."

"What happened!"

At the same time, because of the sound of the piano, Officer Memu, who was still investigating, suddenly opened the door of the interrogation room and walked out, shouting and asking the police officers outside the room.

At this time, Gao Yuan and Mouri Kogoro, who were originally assisting Officer Megure in the interrogation room, did not stop in the interrogation room after hearing the sound of the piano. After Officer Megure stood up and opened the door, They stood up one after another and ran straight towards the source of the sound——

There is no doubt that the source of the piano sound that resounds throughout the island's activity center is still the same as last night, which is the radio station located on the second floor here.

In response, when they saw Gao Yuan and Kogoro starting to run upstairs, everyone present couldn't help but follow them.

Among them, Xiaolan and Asai Narumi, who were still sleepy, couldn't help but be awakened by the piano sound of the third movement of "Moonlight". They looked at each other with bewildered faces, wondering what was going on.

And just in time, Conan, who was coming back from outside the house, was running upstairs with everyone, so Xiaolan hurriedly called to Conan——

"Conan! What on earth is going on?"

In this regard, Conan, who was also confused by the piano sound for the third time, only replied anxiously:

"Sister Xiaolan, something may have happened!"

The first sound of "Moonlight" allowed those who participated in the ritual ceremony of former village chief Kameyama Isamu to discover Ken Nishimoto's body; the second time the second movement of "Moonlight" was played allowed him and others to discover the drowned Hideo Kawashima. ; And now the third movement of "Moonlight" for the third time...

Even though the first two times may be just coincidence, but one after another, when someone thinks that someone will die as long as "Moonlight" is played, then it is possible that someone will deliberately cater to such a situation and complete their own murderous purpose——

All in all, the current situation is no longer a matter of the truth of the first two times. This third time such a situation occurs, it will definitely not be a simple accident!

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but cursed "Abominable" in his heart, and then rushed to the broadcast station on the second floor——

At this moment, standing at the already opened door of the radio station, the three police officers Megure, Gao Yuan, and Kogoro who came here first looked at the situation inside the radio station in disbelief.

I saw a bloated figure lying face down on the floor of the radio station.

And this figure seemed to want to reach somewhere, and the right hand seemed to stretch forward very hard——

Maintaining this posture, the figure did not move at all and looked lifeless.

And this figure was recognized by the three people present. This was the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji who had just left after the interrogation!

"Dad...dad!"

Immediately afterwards, when Kuroiwa Tatsuji's daughter Kuroiwa Reiko saw her father lying motionless on the ground, Kuroiwa Reiko couldn't help shouting in panic and wanted to break into the radio station.

However, such behavior was immediately stopped by Officer Megure——

"Until the situation is confirmed, unrelated personnel are not allowed to enter the scene!"

In response to this, the emotional Kuroiwa Reiko couldn't help but feel anxious as if she was about to cry:

"But daddy...is daddy..."

Regarding this situation, Officer Megure tried his best to prevent the rest of the people from entering the scene. As for Kogoro and Gao Yuan, they had already been tacitly allowed to enter the scene first——

"There is no pulse..."

Reaching out and touching the carotid artery of Kuroiwa Tatsuji, Kogoro frowned and said in a very angry tone.

After hearing this, Kuroiwa Reiko, who was already very emotional, seemed to have been greatly stimulated, and she wanted to rush into the scene regardless of the situation. If it weren't for the efforts of Officer Megure and the police officers who arrived later, and Later, Kuroiwa Reiko's fiancé Murasawa's comfort on Monday may really not be able to stop her.

"Why are you still standing here! Go and call the forensic investigators and forensic doctors!"

Faced with this situation, Officer Megure yelled at the nearby police officers, but the police officers looked at each other and said helplessly, somewhat at a loss:

"The police department...there are forensic personnel, but in order to complete the autopsy of the two corpses, the forensic doctor has returned to Tokyo in the afternoon..."

"What!"

Hearing this, Officer Megure couldn't help but be surprised.

Immediately, when Officer Megure saw Asai Narimi who was also coming from downstairs, he had no choice but to say:

"Dr. Chengshi, could I trouble you?"

"Hey? Okay! If I can help you!"

Regarding the request made by Officer Megure, Asai Shimizu was stunned for a moment, but then nodded and agreed——

"no!"

However, before Asai Narumi could enter the scene, Gao Yuan and Kogoro, who were investigating at the scene, rejected such request in unison.

"What?"

In this regard, Officer Megure couldn't help but asked in confusion.

At this moment, facing this situation, what Gao Yuan and Kogoro are concerned about is——

In the dead state of the deceased Kuroiwa Tatsuji, where his right hand was stretched out with force, there was a new piece of music written on the ground with blood stains!
