Maori Detective Agency.
"Uncle has a letter for you!" Ming Hui walked in from outside the door, holding a newspaper with a letter in his hand, and handed it to Maori Kogoro, who was in a bored nap.
"Whose could it be?" Maori Kogoro took the letter from Ming Hui's hands and opened it.
He found that the words on the paper were spelled out using the words in the newspaper. It seemed that the sender did not want others to see his handwriting.
"On the night of the next full moon, there will be another shadow disappearing from Moon Shadow Island. Please investigate the reason. Aso Keiji "
"Aso Keiji? It seems to have appeared in an episode before?" Ming Hui felt like he had heard this name before.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
"Uncle's phone is ringing!" Ming Hui woke Maori Kogoro who was deep in thought.
"May I know who you are?"
" There are still two days until the full moon." A masculine voice came from the other end of the phone.
"500,000 yuan has been transferred in. You have to come!”
"Wait, who are you?"
" Aso Keiji from Moon Shadow Island " hung up the phone after saying that. No matter how Maori Kogoro tried to call back, his phone was switched off.
" Looks like we have to go on a long journey again in two days." Ming Hui recalled the Shinkansen explosion incident that he had encountered a few days ago. His heart was numb. He spent most of his time outside with these two Grim Reapers.
" Just treat it as a vacation." Maori Kogoro could only accept it helplessly after the call back was fruitless. After all, that person had already transferred the money to his bank card.
He was not a person who did not keep his word. As a private detective, it would be embarrassing if he did not even have this little bit of credibility.
"Wuuu ~! Wuuu ~!"
On the sea that was shrouded in a hazy fog.
A ship sailing towards Moon Shadow Island sounded its horn. The sound was long and winding, as if the ship was sailing on the sea and singing a song that belonged to itself.
" Why did we have to come to such a remote island? It's all foggy and boring," Maori Kogoro complained as he leaned against the railing of the ship and looked at the vast fog on the sea with a bored expression.
"This isn't bad either. Just treat it as a hike, right, Conan Minghui?”As he spoke, he looked at Conan and Ming Hui with anticipation.
" Mm." Ming Hui nodded in agreement." And Mr. Aso Keiji has already transferred the money to your bank card. You can't go back on your word, right?"”
"That's true. How can I, Maori Kogoro, not take responsibility? I must find out what happened.”
As he spoke, he clenched his fists and looked very motivated.
Unknowingly, they arrived at the Moon Shadow Island. From afar, this small island in the sea was really picturesque, with beautiful mountains and rivers.
"Aso Keiji?" At the center of the village on the island, after hearing the names of Maori Kogoro and the others, the staff began to rummage through the archives.
" I'm really sorry, everyone." After looking around, the staff member apologized to Maori Kogoro," I don't think there's a name called Aso Keiji on the island."
"How could that be? "This letter was sent from your island." Maori Kogoro took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to the staff.
" But we really don't have such a person here," the staff confirmed again.
"What's wrong?" At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked over and asked them.
" Oh, it's these people. They're looking for a person called Aso Keiji on the island," the staff explained to the middle-aged man wearing glasses.
"What?! Masheng…!" When the middle-aged man with glasses heard this name, his expression changed drastically. His face was filled with fear and surprise, which confused Maori Kogoro and the others.
"Do you know Aso Keiji?" Maori Kogoro asked him. After all, the expression on his face when he heard the name meant that he knew this person.
"Yes, and he died a few years ago!”As he spoke, the middle-aged bespectacled man was still in disbelief. After all, he had been dead for a few years. How could he still be involved?
“？!!!”When Maori Kogoro and the others heard this, they were all shocked. After all, how could a dead person send him a letter a few days ago? Xiaolan was also starting to feel a little afraid.
"What is going on?" Maori Kogoro was still confused and could not figure out what was going on.
" This is not the place to talk. Please follow me." As he spoke, he led the way for Maori Kogoro and the others.
Sitting on the sofa in the director's office, the middle-aged man began to explain," He was born on this island and used to be a very famous pianist."
"Twelve years ago, after many years, he returned to his hometown and held a concert in the Citizen Hall. However, after the concert, he suddenly locked himself in his home with his family and set fire to it!”
"It is said that he killed his wife and daughter with a knife, but he was in the midst of the raging flames as if he was entangled by something. He kept on playing the piano, repeating the song 'Moonlight'!”
……
After arriving outside, Maori Kogoro took out the letter and began to figure out the meaning of the letter.
"Is this a letter from the deceased?" Maori Kogoro frowned and buried his head in thought.
"Could it be that Aso Keiji's friend sent it over to avenge him?”Ming Hui expressed his opinion.
"Yes, other than that, there doesn't seem to be any other meaning."
Conan agreed.
Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro and said,"Then let's go to the village chief. Maybe the village chief knows something about Aso Keiji."
" Then we have to ask for directions. We don't know the way to the Citizen Hall," Conan said the most important question.
"Then let's set off!" Maori Kogoro brought Xiaolan and the other two along as he walked to look for the surrounding villagers.
At this moment, we saw a female doctor giving instructions to a child.
"Excuse me, may I know how to get to the Citizen Hall?”Xiao Lan asked the female doctor after the child left.
"Hmm?" Ming Hui felt the complicated aura on her body and was a little confused." She's obviously a girl. Why does she have such a strong male aura?”
" After turning around the corner, go straight to the end," the female doctor explained as she pointed at the place where Maori Kogoro had just walked over.
" So we're going the wrong way." Conan looked at the path she pointed at, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.
"Are you guys from Tokyo?”The female physician hesitated for a moment before asking Xiao Lan and the others.
Xiao Lan nodded." That's right. I just got off the boat."
Hearing that we came from Tokyo, the female doctor revealed a very happy expression." I was born in Tokyo too!”
"But this island is different from Tokyo. The air was so fresh, and it was very quiet!”
As he spoke, he even stretched.
"Shimizu, Masato Shimizu! Please vote for Masato Shimizu!" At this moment, a van drove over from the opposite side of us. The horn on it was constantly advertising as it drove past us.
Conan was speechless.
Mao Lilan was speechless.
Maori Kogoro was speechless.
" That's awkward." Ming Hui's mouth twitched a few times as he looked at the van that had already driven away.
" Uh, this is an exception," the female doctor explained." Because the village chief election is about to be held."
Conan wondered," Village chief election?”
The female doctor explained in detail," The candidates are fishermen's representatives: Masato Shimizu, the current village chief, Mr. Kuroiwa, and the island's biggest asset, Mr. Kawashima."
"All the patients are voting for Mr. Kawashima!”
Finally, the female doctor began to introduce herself.”
"Narumi Asai? Why does it feel so familiar?" Ming Hui tried his best to search for memories in his mind.
"It's real!" At this moment, Ming Hui suddenly remembered this name. He had also carefully searched for the plot of this episode.
"So that's the case. It seems that he's a tragic character! "Then I'll stop you from killing." Thinking of this, Ming Hui's mouth revealed a smile.
"So you're a doctor!" After hearing Mashou's self-introduction, Maori Kogoro finally understood.
" If you go to the Citizen Hall, you will meet the three people I just mentioned," Dr. Narumi explained," because tonight there will be a ceremony for the third anniversary of the succession of the former village chief, Mr. Kameyama."
"The previous village chief's three-year inheritance?”Maori Kogoro was puzzled.
"Let's go to the Citizen Hall quickly. After all, we still have to continue investigating!”Ming Hui shouted at Maori Kogoro and the others. After saying that, he walked in the direction that Doctor Narumi had just pointed out.
" Then we'll take our leave." After saying that, he bowed to Dr. Cheng Shi and followed Ming Hui.
"Now, let's see how I expose this shameless business!”As he walked towards the Citizen Hall, Ming Hui began to plan in his heart. After all, if Cheng Shi only scared Turtle Mountain to death, his crime was still very light, but if he killed the other three, it would be another matter.
This time, he had to save this poor man! Just like the meaning of the letter, it was to stop him from killing!
"The current village chief is not allowed to be bossy!"
"We want to overthrow privilege!"
Outside the Citizens 'Hall, there were already many people raising flags and shouting.
" It seems that the current village chief is really bad." Lan looked at the residents of the island who were protesting, and her image of the village chief was greatly damaged.
"Yes, and one of the four murderers!”Ming Hui muttered to himself as he coldly watched everything that was happening.
"Hui, what are you talking about?”Conan listened to Ming Hui's muttering and asked him.
"No, I didn't say anything." Conan couldn't know about this now. It wouldn't be too late to tell him when everything was ready!
When we reached the entrance of the Citizen Hall, we saw a bespectacled man in a black suit walking out.
"May I know who you are?" The bespectacled man looked at the strangers and asked in confusion.
"Oh! We are detectives from Tokyo. We want to meet the village chief.”Maori Kogoro explained to him.
" Okay, please wait a moment." After hearing Maori Kogoro's request, the bespectacled man returned to the village chief's office.
