"Stop it, there are detectives outside."
"Even if I don't report you, you still won't be able to get away with it."
"Although you put your slippers on the beach, your feet stepped into the water, and the soles of the slippers will definitely be stained with the sand of SH Beach."
"Even if your slippers can be cleaned, how can you explain that your socks are wet?"
"You probably didn't bring any spare black stockings, right?"
"And once a murder occurs, the police will come to the island to interrogate everyone."
"When the time comes to confirm your identity again, your male identity will also be revealed, right?"
Kawashima Hideo drowned in the sea with his own hands, and it was inevitable that his feet would step into the water.
Although Qin Zhibo is not sure whether Conan and Mouri Kogoro can notice this, if they follow the investigation point generation mechanism, the investigation points will be generated easily.
As for finding out the gender, Qin Zhibo thinks that even a police officer like Mu Mu should be able to do it easily.
However, this side mission is not to find out the murderer, but to complete the contents of the commission letter.
The content of the authorization letter is actually divided into two parts...
"The first sentence of the commission letter was undoubtedly a warning of murder under the full moon, but the last sentence was not actually a provocation."
"You should be hoping someone can stop you, right?"
Aso's body trembled slightly, Qin Zhibo quietly took a step forward and continued his analysis: "I believe your nature is kind."
"Although I don't know why you want to kill this person, but it should be related to Keiji Aso, right?"
"Keji Aso...should be your father, right?"
Aso Minori was once again surprised that Qin Zhibo had even seen through this step, and at this time Qin Zhibo also successfully approached Aso Minori's side.
A strong, strong hand grasped Aso Minoru's slender wrist, and the hot temperature made Aso Minoru move.
After a few seconds of stalemate, Aso chose to let go.
But instead of throwing Kawashima Hideo into the water, he put it on the dry shore nearby.
"You are right, Keiji Aso is my father."
"Twelve years ago, my father, mother and sister died in a fire. It was an 'accident' they created to silence themselves."
"They? Silenced?" Qin Zhibo, who had not thoroughly investigated the cause and effect relationship behind it, asked doubtfully.
"Yeah." Aso smiled bitterly. "I have been suspicious of the death of my family members since before, so after graduating from medical school, I returned to this island as a female doctor and wanted to investigate this matter secretly.
thing."
"Three years ago, the former village chief Guishan probably had some evil thoughts about me and called me into the piano room in the middle of the night."
"As a result, when I told him that I was Aso's son, he suddenly muttered to himself in fear, and then collapsed due to cardiac paralysis."
"He feels guilty about my father, otherwise he wouldn't be so afraid of me."
"So I started investigating people related to Kameyama, and finally discovered recently that they were secretly conducting drug trade."
"There are former village chief Kameyama Isamu, current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji, and Nishimoto Ken." Aso Minoru glanced down at Hideo Kawashima lying on the ground, "And this guy..."
"And the four of them were witnesses who saw my father setting fire to a family with his own hands."
"It was the three of them and the former village chief Isamu Kameyama who killed my family members who witnessed the drug trade..."
Aso was immersed in grief, and Qin Zhibo also remembered the investigation point he just found under the piano.
It turns out that these are the people who conduct this kind of transactions in the village...
And since Secretary Hirata is the secretary of the current village chief, and he tried his best to prevent others from entering the piano room, doesn't it mean that...
Qin Zhibo asked the doubts in his heart, and Aso nodded honestly.
"He did participate in the drug trade, but he had not come to Yueying Island twelve years ago, so he should not be among the murderers of my father."
Qin Zhibo thought about it carefully, and it was true.
Secretary Hirata's personal information is that he is 31 years old. He didn't even have hair 12 years ago, so he probably wouldn't be able to commit murder and arson.
Qin Zhibo continued to ask: "So your plan is to kill the three enemies who are still alive in the world?"
Aso nodded honestly again.
"Okay, hand me over to the police."
Aso Minoru lowered his head and stretched out his hands without restraint, but Qin Zhibo took a step back and waved his hands.
"First of all, I don't think the world is black or white. There should be a gray area between black and white."
"If you can promise to give up the idea of revenge, I can choose not to call the police."
"Sometimes you may not be able to forgive your enemies, but you can try to forgive yourself."
"When you leave this little Moon Shadow Island, you will find that there are many beautiful places in this world that are worthy of nostalgia. I think your father does not want you to destroy yourself because of revenge."
"As for evil people...it's an old truth that evil people will be punished by evil people."
"Before your hands are stained with blood, you still have a chance to start over."
"So...you choose."
At this point, Aso Minoru had two choices before him.
One is Hideo Kawashima lying next to him on the dry shore, he represents continued revenge.
The other one is Qin Zhibo who is also standing in the water, he represents forgiveness.
Of course, this forgiveness is not to forgive the enemy, but to forgive yourself and give up punishing yourself in the same way as punishing the enemy.
After half a minute of silence, Aso chose Qin Zhibo.
He stepped through the cool waves, threw himself on Qin Zhibo and cried, his cries revealing his somewhat hoarse voice.
Although this felt a little strange, Qin Zhibo still lent him his broad shoulders and gently hugged this helpless man.
...
Outside the public hall, the Maori family is still waiting.
"Really, how long will the ceremony last?"
Sitting on the steps, Mouri Kogoro stretched his waist, looked up and saw the full moon in the sky, and let out a dissatisfied complaint.
At this moment, a string of beautiful music came from the public hall.
The beating notes filled people's ears with magical sounds, and the famous song "Moonlight" was played under the full moon.
Conan immediately became alert and took the lead in rushing into the piano room.
In the piano room, Hideo Kawashima's lower body was lying on the floor wet, with an unusually obvious trace of water trailing from the back door of the piano room.
It's Mr. Kawashima!
Too late!
Looking at Kawashima Hideo's slightly twisted body, Conan sentenced him to death with just his eyes.
After all, he had received the murder notice in advance, and today happened to be the full moon, so this person was bound to die.
However, when Kogoro Mouri walked over to conduct a simple "autopsy", he came up with a result that caught Conan off guard.
"Mr. Kawashima..."
"Still alive..."
Well, he's dead...
Judging from the water marks on the ground, the first scene should not be the piano room, but...
etc!
Conan, who had already begun to think about the method of killing according to his habitual thinking, suddenly noticed the autopsy results from Kogoro Mori's mouth.
Still alive...
Although from the perspective of respecting every life, this is good news.
But I don’t know why, but Conan feels a little regretful in his heart?
...
"Hey! Mr. Kawashima!"
"Mr. Kawashima! Wake up!"
Under the vigorous shaking of Mouri Kogoro, Kawashima Hideo gradually regained consciousness.
"Mr. Kawashima, how are you feeling now?"
"Brain, my head hurts a little..."
Hideo Kawashima bared his teeth and covered his head, but otherwise he was fine.
So Mouri Kogoro made a routine inquiry pattern.
"Mr. Kawashima, do you still remember what happened just now?"
Hideo Kawashima thought for a few seconds and said dullly: "It seems that in the middle of the ceremony, I got up to go to the toilet."
"Then my vision suddenly went dark in the toilet and I lost consciousness..."
At this moment, Secretary Hirata once again spread alarmist remarks.
"It's a curse!"
"This is the curse of that piano!"
His slightly exaggerated expression and retreating steps, coupled with the continuous "Moonlight" in the piano room, immediately made the superstitious villagers participating in the ritual begin to believe this statement.
"The piano is horribly cursed..."
"It must be Keiji Aso's soul causing trouble, Amitabha..."
"Did today's religious ceremony disturb Keiji Aso's soul?"
"Then it is necessary to add another ritual..."
Among the people discussing, Ken Nishimoto, who had lost weight, stared at the piano as if he had seen a ghost, with a horrified expression and trembling legs.
The current village chief, the bald uncle Kuroiwa Tatsuji, also broke out in a cold sweat, widened his eyes, and said nothing.
But just when the discussion of the case began to lead to metaphysics, a determined materialist warrior stood up.
"Ghosts and curses don't exist in this world!"
"Obviously someone knocked Mr. Kawashima unconscious in the toilet and then moved him to this room."
Mouri Kogoro's attitude was firm and his words were powerful, but these elderly villagers didn't care at all.
"How do you know there is no curse?" A wrinkled old woman stood up with a cane, "Ahem, the food I have eaten is saltier than the road you have walked."
"If you continue to talk nonsense and be disrespectful to the deceased, be careful I use this crutch to hit your butt!"
"Why are you giving orders here? Who are you?" The prospective son-in-law of the current village chief also began to speak out.
"Yeah yeah..."
Amid everyone's doubts, Mouri Kogoro began to introduce his identity confidently.
"I am a famous detective from Tokyo, Kogoro Mori!"
In Kogoro Mouri's opinion, Tsukikage Island is not too far from Tokyo, and his reputation should be enough to intimidate everyone present.
result...
"Ah! That's the space pilot."
"No, he often appears in reasoning, right?"
"That's Kogoro Akechi."
"So who is this person?"
Mouri Kogoro: Hey! Don’t you read TV or newspapers?
