The live broadcast had ended. Cheng Shi had not returned to the clinic yet. However, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to leave for the time being after tonight's murder.
Nangong Yue closed the door of the clinic and walked towards Nishimoto Ken's house.
The fire in the West House had not been extinguished yet, and the sky was dyed red. Therefore, Nangong Yue didn't know where the West Main Family was. However, as long as he walked in the direction of the brightest spot in the sky, he would be right.
When Nangong Yue arrived at the Xi Family. Many people in the town gathered around the West Home where the fire broke out. After walking through the crowd to the front. As expected, Cheng Shi was here.
Kogoro, Conan, and the others were with her. And most of the people who were at the ritual venue during the day had come here.
Most of the people were standing at a place where they would not be affected by the commotion. Only two people were holding a water pipe that was pulled from a roadside fire faucet 50 meters away and spraying a long water column at the burning house.
However, the little bit of water did not have much effect on the fire that had already completely burned.
Moreover, with the current degree of burning, there was no need to put out the fire.
"Success! What happened?" Nangong Yue walked up to Kazumi Asai and asked.
"Hmm? Yuejun, has your fever subsided?”Cheng Shi turned around and saw that Nangong Yue had actually come here. He asked with concern.
"Yes, I feel much better after sleeping. When I woke up, I saw that you weren't back yet, so I came out to take a look. He was originally going to the Citizens 'Hall, but he came over to take a look when he saw the strange situation here. I didn't expect you to be here." Nangong Yue explained.
"Yes, I am. It's great that your fever has subsided. You saw it too. A fire broke out in the house of the Nishimoto family. He also heard from the neighbors that Nishimoto had returned to his house before the fire. In the end, it didn't seem to have come out. After discovering the fire in the West Home, the people nearby rushed over. It was just that the fire was too big, and there was really no way to carry out effective rescue.”Kazumi Asai looked at the house that was still burning with a frown.
"Hmm? Who is this gentleman?" Xiaowulang walked over to Nangong Yue and asked Cheng Shi.
"Oh, I see. Let me introduce you." Narumi looked at Kogoro and smiled.
"This is my classmate and colleague. Another doctor on Moon Shadow Island."
"This is Mr. Maori Kogoro, a famous detective from Tokyo.”
"Oh! So you're the famous detective, Mr. Kogoro Maori. I've read about you in the newspapers and on TV.”Nangong Yue smiled as she extended her right hand. At the same time, she flattered him.
"Haha, I'm not sure. That's right. I'm the famous detective, Maori Kogoro.”Koguro smiled narcissistically. At the same time, he extended his right hand and shook Nangong Yue's hand.
"May I ask why Mr. Mao Li has come to this small town of Moon Shadow Island? Is there something on the island that requires Mr. Maori to come all the way from Tokyo?”Nangong Yue asked curiously.
"That's right. Actually, I was invited by someone on the island. He didn't expect a murder to happen on the first day he came. Now that there was a fire in Nishimoto's house, she wondered if Nishimoto-san had escaped from his house.”Maori Kogoro looked back at the burning fire and said seriously.
"Oh? There was actually a murder case! Then please, Mr. Maori, catch the murderer! He hoped that there would not be any more unfortunate things that would ruin the peaceful life on the island.”Nangong Yue pleaded sincerely.
"Leave it to me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro. I will definitely bring the murderer to justice!”When Kogoro spoke, his face revealed a very confident expression.
Nangong Yue, who saw everything, thought to herself," Humph! Everything looked like an accident, and there were no traces of homicide left at the scene. I don't believe you can find the murderer.
When the fire was completely extinguished. It was already one o'clock in the morning.
Kogoro covered his nose with a wet handkerchief. He walked to the house that was almost burned to ashes to check on the situation.
As soon as he reached the door, he saw a charred human-shaped corpse lying on the ground. Then, he immediately called the old police officer over.
"How tragic. It's completely charred." Nangong Yue stood behind the old policeman and shook her head.
"Yes, I am. Perhaps this was Nishimoto-san's fault. He didn't know if it was an accident or a deliberate murder. However, he would probably have to wait until the police came tomorrow to investigate in detail.”Kogoro squatted on the ground and looked at the corpse. Then, he stood up again.
"It's already very late. Go back and rest first. I'll wait for the police from Tokyo to come over tomorrow to assist in the investigation.”
"Yes, I am. This was the only way. He didn't expect two murders to happen tonight.”The old policeman sighed.
After a short inspection, everyone left. He only took a wet sheet and covered Nishimoto Ken's charred body.
However, Nangong Yue and Cheng Shi had not returned to their shared apartment for long before they were pulled out by Xiao Lan, who rushed over.
According to Xiaolan, Kuroiwa-san and Heita-san were found dead in front of their own homes by their neighbors who had just returned from the fire in the Nishimoto family.
Therefore, Kogoro needed the two doctors, Nangong Yue and Narumi Asai, to temporarily act as forensic doctors to examine the condition of the corpse.
The three of them went to Hirata-san's house first. Another group of people gathered at Hirata-san's door. There were also some villagers who were vomiting under the trees by the roadside.
"Narumi, it looks like Mr. Hirata died a terrifying death. You have to be mentally prepared later." Nangong Yue pointed at the few people who were vomiting on the roadside and said to Cheng Shi.
"Yuejun. We both graduated from medical university. What kind of corpses have we not seen before? What is there to be afraid of?”Cheng Shi said casually.
"Hehe. I'm not sure. That's true." Nangong Yue laughed at herself.
The three of them passed through the crowd and came to the front. Xiaolan suddenly saw the pieces of meat on the ground and the mutilated body of Hirata Kazuaki. She immediately covered her mouth and ran out again. It seemed that Xiaolan had not arrived at the scene before this. Instead, after receiving the notice, he was immediately arranged by Kogoro to look for Nangong Yue and Asai Kazumi.
As expected, Kazumi Asai was not frightened by the terrifying scene on the ground. He clenched his fist and placed it in front of his nose, frowning.
"Miss Chengshi, Mister Nangong. I'll have to trouble you to temporarily replace the forensic doctor's work. After all, there were no forensic doctors on this island.”
Nangong Yue looked at the corpses of Kazuaki Hirata and the eight stray dogs on the ground. He squatted down next to the mutilated body of Kazuaki Hirata and began to examine it.
"There are many traces of being bitten by wild beasts on the body. From the scene, it should be caused by those mad dogs. Hmm…there were no fatal wounds on the body. Judging from the large wounds on the body and the area of blood on the ground. The deceased should have died from excessive blood loss after being attacked by a group of mad dogs. Time of death…should be around six to seven hours. That's right. Cheng Shi." Nangong Yue said as she turned to look at Asai Narumi.
"That's right. The preliminary judgment is indeed like this." Kazumi Asai nodded.
"In that case, let's go to the village chief's house to take a look. She heard that he had also died in front of her house. Mr. Criminal Police Officer, please clean up the scene." We'll go to the village chief's place to take a look.”Koguro said to the old police officer, then pulled a villager as a guide and left with Nangong Yue and Cheng Shi.
As Nangong Yue was leaving, she saw from the corner of her eye that Conan was following the poison scattered on the ground. Pin ran all the way into the forest.
