Chapter 646 For Justice on the Island

"What?"

Hearing this, when he learned that Kogoro already knew the truth about Kuroiwa Tatsuji's death and had obtained the evidence, Officer Megure looked stunned and couldn't help but said in surprise:

"What you said is true! Brother Maori!"

"That's right!"

Kogoro said in a very serious voice:

"I already understand the real logic behind the series of events committed by the murderer!"

"Brother Maori, what is going on?"

In this regard, Officer Megure asked eagerly.

And Kogoro's voice began to explain slowly:

"The truth of all these incidents can be traced back to twelve years ago, when Keiji Aso was buried in the sea of ​​fire. And when we talk about this incident, we have to mention the deal that has existed on the island for a long time... …”

At first, he just said it lightly, but suddenly, Kogoro's voice suddenly shouted:

"Mr. Hirata!"

Suddenly, as Kogoro's voice called out this name, Hirata Kazaki who was present couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, with a look of panic on his face and a bit at a loss -

"Mr. Hirata, I think after you became Mr. Kuroiwa's secretary, you were helping Mr. Kuroiwa take over the deal, right?"

Kogoro's voice was serious and unquestionable, and he said this, which made Hirata Kazuaki, who had already understood the meaning of Kogoro's words, start to lower his head with guilt.

At the same time, since Officer Megure had already known what the hidden transactions on the island were, but when he heard Kogoro confessing the truth in front of so many people at this moment, he still couldn't help but feel a little nervous——

However, Officer Megure did not do much to stop this, thinking that since Kogoro chose to confess at this moment, the truth of all this would surely come to light with his subsequent reasoning.

Moreover, the police and the Narcotics Control Department have already laid a dragnet here. Once the truth is revealed, the suspect will have absolutely no room to escape!

Confidently, Officer Megure thought, and then waited for Kogoro to continue -

"Mr. Hirata and Mr. Kawashima, the second person who died last night, were dealing in illegal drugs in the room where the piano was placed!"

"Illegal drugs!"

Upon hearing this word, among the people present, apart from everyone who had already known about it, only Murasawa Monday and Kuroiwa Reiko shouted out this word with a look of horror on their faces, completely confused as to what was going on - —

"The method of the transaction should be that Mr. Hirata placed the illegal drugs smuggled in from abroad into the hidden opening of the piano, and then Mr. Kawashima took out the illegal drugs from there and put the money for the goods. From this, Hirata Take it out afterwards to complete the transaction..."

Slowly, based on the information he had received from the old policeman, Conan reasoned in Kogoro's voice in the broadcast room.

In response to this, the old policeman who was also downstairs with everyone at this time couldn't help but touch his chin, murmured in thought:

"I see...the two of them often meet at the community activity center. That's why..."

"Mr. Hirata spread the rumor of the 'cursed piano' so that the villagers did not dare to approach the piano. Naturally, no one would find that there was a hidden opening under the piano for storing illegal drugs. Therefore, in Nishimoto After the death of my husband, someone would want to return to the scene to retrieve the illegal drugs still hidden in the piano. This seems to be a normal thing..."

Kogoro said calmly.

"kindness……"

In response, Officer Megure couldn't help but nodded, and looked at Hirata Kazuaki with a serious expression, who was already kneeling on the ground in fear because Kogoro revealed that he was involved in the smuggling of illegal drugs, and then——

"Um?"

Suddenly, Officer Megure suddenly realized that what Kogoro just said was a bit strange——

"What does 'just look normal' mean?"

"That's what it means."

After Officer Megure asked this question in confusion, Kogoro's voice gave the answer:

"After the murderer chose to use an overdose of illegal drugs to cause the death of Mr. Nishimoto, it would be a matter of time before the police discovered the fact that illegal drugs were being traded on the island during the subsequent investigation... Therefore, from the beginning, the murderer wanted the police to Know the facts about the illegal drug trade on this island!”

"What! The murderer wants the police to know the fact that there is illegal drug trading on the island... Brother Maori, what is going on? You have confused me!"

Officer Megure felt that what Kogoro said was too unexpected, so he couldn't help but ask.

In this regard, Kogoro's voice began to explain:

"To be more precise, the murderer wanted us to think about what happened on the island in the past two days and the truth about Keiji Aso's death that year, so he made this arrangement... Whether it was the illegal drugs used to kill Nishimoto, or the death The "Moonlight" played at the scene was all suggesting that the police investigate the truth behind Keiji Aso's death twelve years ago!"

"What's the meaning?"

Still not quite understanding, Officer Megure couldn't help but ask.

"To put it simply...the murderer laid out suspicions in order to kill these three people and also to get rid of his own suspicion. Let us think about the truth of the incident in terms of 'someone wants to avenge Aso Keiji'."

Kogoro's voice explained seriously:

"First, we killed Mr. Nishimoto with illegal drugs, and then while we were keeping vigil at the scene, he disguised himself as a dark figure who wanted to do something to the scene, so that we could realize what was there. In this way, When we found illegal drugs hidden in the piano on site, we naturally realized that someone on the island was using that piano to trade illegal drugs.

"Then, as the second movement of "Moonlight" played for the second time, we were attracted to the office. When we found Mr. Kawashima's drowned body, we naturally thought that Mr. Kawashima had some intentions on the scene at that time. The dark shadow, and what it is seeking is illegal drugs hidden in the piano...

"In this regard, due to the presence of 'illegal drugs' and the two-time sound of "Moonlight", normally, as detectives, we will naturally start to trace the truth about the death of Keiji Aso twelve years ago. In this way , it was expected that we would discover the piece of music Mr. Aso left behind before his death..."

As he said this, Kogoro's voice gradually became serious——

"From the perspective of the murderer, as detectives we should reason like this, and as we find the music score that Keiji Aso left in the fire, by interpreting the codes on it, we can learn the truth about his death, and we can also learn the truth about his death. This will help us know who the people on the island are involved in the smuggling of illegal drugs... and most importantly, when we learn through the music score that Aso also has a living person named 'SEJI', we will naturally think Everything that happened on the island was a case committed by 'Chengshi' to avenge his father...

"That's right... the reason why we feel that what happened is very strange is because we did not follow the steps of reasoning that the murderer had given us long ago. We knew about the existence of 'Chengshi' from the beginning, and we have known about it since the beginning. We knew from the beginning that 'Chengshi' was not the murderer, so the murderer's plan to pin all the crimes on 'Chengshi' was not established from the beginning! And because of this, our investigation reached a deadlock...

"And now, with the death of Mr. Kuroiwa and the real murderer coming out, I finally determined this - for the sake of justice on the island, who is the murderer who killed these three criminals who were smuggling illegal drugs on the island! "

In a solemn tone, Kogoro's voice said...
