Chapter 54: Come true, you can choose knight or devil
On the ferry from Tsukage Island to Tokyo.
It was early in the morning, the weather was very nice, and the sea breeze blowing in my face had a salty smell.
Uncle Maori, Xiaolan, Conan, and Shu Yunwen were all standing on the deck, leaning against the railing. Xiaolan and Conan had indifferent faces, looking at the seemingly endless ocean in the distance, not knowing what they were thinking in their hearts.
As for Uncle Maoli, he looked a little downcast; Shu Yunwen also looked into the distance with a smile on his face.
"Ahhhh, sneeze~~" Uncle Maori sneezed again.
Xiaolan turned to look at Uncle Maoli: "Dad, don't you have a cold again?"
Uncle Maori immediately waved his fist: "Idiot! I am the famous detective Kogoro Maori, how could I catch a cold?!"
Xiaolan rolled her eyes——
Does being a detective have anything to do with not catching a cold?
"You'd better take care of your health! You're already an old man. If you fall ill, be careful and I'll leave you alone!" Xiaolan threatened.
Uncle Maoli said: "Hey! Is this what you, a daughter, should say?"
"Humph!" Xiaolan snorted softly. She heard a voice coming from the other side of the ferry, looked over, and immediately let out an "ah" sound.
"Huh? What's wrong? Xiaolan?" Uncle Maoli asked.
Xiaolan retracted her eyes, shook her head, and said with a forced smile: "It's nothing! It's just that the woman over there, her back looks very similar to Dr. Chengshi..."
As soon as Xiaolan finished speaking, Shu Yunwen, Conan, and Uncle Maoli all turned their heads and looked over.
Sure enough, on the other side of the ferry, a woman wearing tight black clothes was talking to her friends. If you only looked at it from behind, the slender figure had about the same height and hairstyle, it really seemed like you were seeing someone else.
Just like a successful doctor.
"Idiot... I'm sure that Dr. Chengshi is dead. He was in the fire he lit last night. The forensic personnel have compared all aspects of the deceased's dental treatment traces and DNA.
That's Dr. Cheng Shi, that's right." As Uncle Maori spoke, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit one for himself.
Despite Uncle Maori's indifferent appearance, in fact, Dr. Cheng Shi's death deeply touched him.
Although Dr. Chengshi committed the evil act of killing three people in a row, if we really talk about it, he is just a sad and pitiful man. Moreover, Dr. Chengshi committed three murders.
The case has been confirmed by the police.
Dr. Narumi himself left three pieces of evidence in the Moon Shadow Island Clinic, all of which only the murderer could obtain from the deceased. The first one was a button-sized piece of cloth that was removed from Kawashima Hideo's shirt before his death; the second one was
The handkerchief stained with the blood of Kuroiwa Village Chief; the third one was the syringe containing the highly toxic aconitine - Nishimoto Ken's cause of death was confirmed to be poisoning.
In order to make Nishimoto Ken's death slower, Dr. Narumi sprayed aconitine into Nishimoto Ken's mouth instead of directly injecting it into his body.
Moreover, during the subsequent search, the police also found more than a dozen newspapers with missing words from Dr. Chengshi's office. The police took away the two commission letters from Shu Yunwen and Uncle Maoli. After comparing them one by one,
, the police determined that the person who sent them the commission letter was also Dr. Chengshi. As for the specific intention, the police have not analyzed it yet...
"Dad! You idiot! Idiot! Idiot!" Xiaolan scolded Uncle Maori several times in succession.
Uncle Maoli took a long puff of cigarette and was too lazy to pay attention. Uncle Maoli looked at Shu Yunwen again and said: "By the way, Yunwensang, I heard that the list of all participants in the drug trafficking group in the hands of Officer Mumu is what you relied on.
Are you deducing the clues? Tsk tsk, that’s really amazing. I didn’t expect that this time, Officer Megu and the others would actually solve such a major case on Yueying Island..."
"Dad! Didn't Officer Memu say that this matter must be kept secret?" Xiaolan tugged at Uncle Maori.
Uncle Maoli was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head: "Hahaha~ That's right... By the way, I'm a little thirsty, I'm going to have something to drink, see you later!"
"Drink?" Xiaolan suddenly thought of a drink, "Dad! Aren't you going to a bar? Really! It's morning now! It's so early in the morning, I'm still drinking on the boat. If there's too much, I can
I don’t care about you!”
"Hahaha... Of course I won't drink alcohol so early in the morning..." Uncle Maori quickly explained.
Xiaolan said loudly: "Are there many examples of you getting drunk in the morning? No, I have to watch you!"
"Hey, your daughter is really..."
Uncle Maoli and Xiaolan walked away. Conan stood next to Shu Yunwen and suddenly said: "Hey, you should have known that Doctor Chengshi was the murderer, right?"
"Huh?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment and said casually, "How is that possible?"
How could he admit such a thing!
"Don't you know either?" Conan suddenly sat down and leaned against the guardrail, a little disappointed.
Conan now believes in his heart that Shu Yunwen is a more powerful detective than him, otherwise he would not be able to be one step ahead of him and deduce who the murderer is.
However, Shu Yunwen did not admit that he had discovered that the murderer was Dr. Chengshi, so Conan did not have much doubts.
After all, in the two murder cases of Kawashima Hideo and Kuroiwa Village Chief, except for the two pieces of music score, no useful evidence was left at the scene. Instead, each pointed the murderer in another direction. If Conan hadn't interpreted the music score,
Meaning, even if the police finally suspect Dr. Cheng Shi, it will be of no use.
Since his washing machine found nothing, if Shu Yunwen really found something, the washing machine wouldn't believe it either~
"Your reasoning ability is obviously much better than mine. If, if we could have found out that Dr. Chengshi was the murderer earlier, maybe so many people would not have died, and Dr. Chengshi would not have committed suicide in the end..." Conan
muttering.
Shu Yunwen smiled: "Dr. Narumi's suicide is indeed not deserved. However, even if people like Kawashima Hideo, Kuroyan Village Chief, and Nishimoto Ken are killed, I don't feel anything bad... These people were originally
Damn it!"
"Whether a person deserves to die after committing a crime can only be determined by the law, not by someone." Conan rolled his eyes at Shu Yunwen, "A detective can easily let his reason be overtaken by his emotions.
If it is left or right, the content of the reasoning will most likely be distorted~"
"I've said it before, I'm not a detective, I'm an exorcist!" Shu Yunwen emphasized his profession.
Conan said: "Come on, you are just a guy who relies on your powerful reasoning ability to pretend to have some kind of psychic ability. In fact, you are just a clever liar. However, I hope you can help others solve the problem."
I won’t expose their troubles..."
Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes - I'm too lazy to continue talking to you!
After a pause, Conan continued: "Speaking of which, when I saw those two commission letters, I realized there was something wrong. Those two commission letters gave me the feeling at the time, like a murder notice. What if
, if we could have deduced earlier that Dr. Chengshi was the person who sent us the commission letter, we might have been able to prevent all of this from happening."
Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, sighed, and then nodded: "Yes..."
In an instant, the contents of the two commission letters appeared in Shu Yunwen's mind again.
"Dear Lord Yunwen: I, Keiji Aso, are evil spirits in the eyes of everyone and will take the souls of evil people. If there is a powerful spiritual exterminator, please purify all evil spirits. The evil spirit Keiji Aso."
"Mr. Detective Mori: On the next full moon night, shadows will begin to disappear again on Moon Shadow Island. Please go and investigate the cause. Keiji Aso."
When Conan first saw the two commission letters, he just felt like they were a warning of a murder.
But Shu Yunwen is different.
From the beginning, he knew that Dr. Chengshi was the one who sent the letter and that he had murderous intentions. Therefore, he could feel the struggle in Dr. Chengshi's heart from the two commission letters.
Just like what he analyzed before.
The commission letter sent to him showed his evil side full of murderous intentions; the commission letter sent to Uncle Maori showed his kind side, hoping that someone would stop him from killing people.
At first, Shu Yunwen only thought that Dr. Chengshi wanted to kill people, but was afraid of exposing his whereabouts, so he asked Shu Yunwen to help him eliminate the "souls of evil people", so he agreed generously and even helped Dr. Chengshi eliminate them.
got the evidence.
However, Shu Yunwen never expected that Dr. Cheng Shi had already made up his mind from the moment he decided to kill someone. After taking revenge, he would also destroy himself.
Just like the content in the commission letter he sent to Shu Yunwen.
"...If there is a powerful spiritual master, please purify all evil spirits..."
The evil spirits in this were not only Hideo Kawashima, Tatsuji Kuroiwa, and Ken Nishimoto who were killed by him, but also himself.
When he started to kill these enemies, in Dr. Chengshi's mind, he himself had become an evil spirit and the kind that needed to be purified. Therefore, he chose to kill himself...
The two were silent to each other. After a while, Shu Yunwen suddenly spoke again: "By the way, there are no footprints on the beach, and there are two puzzles about the haunting in the broadcast room. Have you solved it?"
"Not yet." Conan grimaced and shook his head.
Now that the murderer of the serial murders on Yueying Island is dead, and with the key evidence left by Dr. Chengshi himself, the police probably will not continue to investigate these two strange methods, but will directly close the case.
These two puzzles have really become unsolved mysteries in Conan's heart.
Shu Yunwen chuckled, and then said proudly: "Kid, I have solved the mystery that there are no footprints on the beach~"
Conan's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Tell me, how was that done?"
"Actually, it's a rope~" Shu Yunwen said with a smile, "The murderer set up a trap in advance and fixed two ropes in the sea, then dragged them into the piano room and fixed them on the door frame leading to the sea.
.Then, the murderer only needs to knock Hideo Kawashima unconscious indoors, and then climb into the sea along the rope. After drowning Hideo Kawashima, he can climb back into the piano room along the rope, and then untie the fixed rope.
, just throw it into the sea. In this way, of course there will be no footprints left on the beach~"
This is what Shu Yunwen came up with after racking his brains. If he uses this method, he can avoid leaving footprints on the beach without relying on Shu Yunwen's supernatural means, right?
"Huh?~" Conan kid looked cute after listening to Shu Yunwen's words, "Brother Yunwen, is this the cracking technique you mentioned?"
"Um."
"But, this method of yours is impossible to achieve, okay?" The Conan kid said with helplessness and contempt, "You can tell me how to fix the two fixed ropes so that Mr. Hideo Kawashima won't discover it.
, and it can also support the weight of Dr. Narumi and Mr. Hideo Kawashima, allowing them to crawl back and forth in the seawater? Moreover, since the rope is fixed, it will definitely leave traces on the scene, right? Like scratches and other
Traces of rope fixation and the like. In fact, after the incident, I carefully inspected the scene. I carefully observed the door frame above the door, the window frame, including the window, and there was no abnormality at all..."
"ah?"
Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then thought...that's right.
Damn it! I worked so hard to come up with this method, but how could this kid see so many flaws so easily?
This little devil is really getting more and more impatient~
…
In front of the Mori Detective Agency.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Uncle Maori, Xiaolan, and Conan got out of the car one by one and thanked Shu Yunwen and Matsushita Heisaburo who was driving: "Thank you for sending us back specially. It's really for you."
It’s causing trouble.”
"In other words, you are too polite..."
After a few people exchanged polite words, the car moved forward again. Matsushita Heisaburo asked: "Master Yunwen, where are you driving to now? Are you going to the office?"
"No, I have other things to do today. I won't go to the office and go home directly." Shu Yunwen casually ordered with a smile on his face.
Matsushita Heisaburo smiled and asked: "Master Yunwen, you seem to be in a good mood?"
"Well, it's not bad."
While the two were chatting, the car drove to Shu Yunwen's villa.
After saying goodbye to Heisaburo Matsushita, Shu Yunwen entered the house, pressed the answering machine first, and listened to the message on the answering machine.
There are four messages in total, two are from Tsukamoto Sumi, and the other two are from Kojima Mie. The general content is asking about Shu Yunwen's situation - Yueying Island is a bit messy, and Shu Yunwen's big brother has no signal at all. Although he went to Yueying
Shima had said hello to Tsukamoto Sumi and the others before, but they had lost contact for two days. Plus, today is Monday, and he didn’t go to school...
Shu Yunwen first called Tsukamoto and Kojima Mie, then closed the door of the villa tightly, walked up to the second floor, and pushed open the parents' bedroom. In the bedroom, because the curtains were closed, the sun couldn't come in.
, seems a bit sinister.
Shu Yunwen walked to the window and looked at the "Heavenly Punishment" hanging on the wall. With a smile on his face, he reached into his pocket and took out a soul ball with a green phosphorescent surface. He chanted a witchcraft spell in his mouth, and then
Then he saw the soul ball suddenly expand, and a green fire seemed to appear out of thin air in the bedroom.
In the sky, the green firelight slowly dissipated, and a transparent figure floated in the air. His mouth opened and closed twice, but no sound came out.
"Although you survived the fire and became the only fire ghost in a million, you are still just a newborn ghost who was born not long ago. If you want to make a sound, you must at least reach the level of a ghost general.
.But..."
Shu Yunwen shook his head.
In this day and age, a newborn ghost wants to grow into a ghost general... What the hell? Don't talk about such a prehistoric level mission casually, okay~
The figure in the sky smiled.
Shu Yunwen continued: "...Although you are a fire ghost, in today's environment, if you don't have a good hiding place and don't swallow people's souls, you can last for more than ten years at most.
It has to dissipate... Speaking of which, you are very lucky. This magic weapon of mine can hide you just right. The magic weapon can hold two souls in total, and the knight in the portrait is still a demon..."
"...Chengshi, it's up to you to choose!"
ps: Okay... I'll be waiting for you here... The hypocritical lady who escaped from the flames, please give me a helping hand ~ la la la ~
ps2: It seems that some readers have guessed it first...well, you are awesome.
ps3: As for whether Cheng Shi will be a knight or a devil, you can guess and guess~ Anyway, I won’t say~
