Chapter 16 Death of Hideo Kawashima

The three of them quickly arrived at the Kojima office and took out letters to the front desk staff, hoping to get information about their employer.

"Strange." The staff kept flipping through the population list, but never saw the name 'Keiji Aso', so he could only say, "I'm really sorry, I still haven't found this name."

"Impossible!" Kogoro shook the letter again, "He was still calling me this morning!"

The director of the office saw the quarrel here and came over to inquire. When he learned that Kogoro was actually invited by Aso Keiji, he was surprised and slightly scared and shouted: "What!? Aso Keiji asked you to come here?!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the whole island office immediately started talking about it.

The director of the office immediately realized that he had lost his temper and invited the three people into the inner hall to tell the whole story.

"Keiji Aso was born on Dark Moon Island and was a very famous pianist at the time.

After many years apart, after returning from abroad, I held a piano concert in the public hall.

However, after the concert, a fire ignited the public hall, and Keiji Aso was also burned to death in the fire.

It is said that he killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and then sat on the piano and played continuously as if controlled by something, until he completely lost his life."

Mao Lilan felt horrified when she heard this, and unconsciously held onto Kogoro's arm, but Conan picked up on the clues.

He had never believed in gods and ghosts, so he felt that there must be some underlying reason behind this incident. Coupled with the letter, he became even more convinced of this guess.

The three of them left the office and sat on chairs on the street.

Kogoro kept reading the letters and finally came to the conclusion: "You actually made fun of a dead person. This prank is really bad!"

"Not necessarily!" Conan reminded every day, "This is stamped with the seal of Dark Moon Island, and the reward is also paid. It is very likely that someone hopes that we can find out the truth of that year!"

These words woke up Kogoro. Thinking about it, now that he has the money, he can just play a prank!

Mouri Kogoro's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he immediately said: "Then let's go to the public hall to see where the crime occurred."

It has been so many years, time has passed, and the scene is no longer what it was back then. If you can find out something, it is really a ghost!

It's just that others have already given money, so it's not good to just leave. It's better to show off first.

There were no street signs on Darkmoon Island, so the three of them wandered around along the roads, turning east and west to the entrance of the clinic.

Encountering Asai Narumi by chance, Mao Lilan quickly asked, "Do you know how to get to the public hall?"

"Just turn around and go straight."

Immediately afterwards, Asai Narumi asked knowingly: "Are you coming from Tokyo?"

Mao Lilan nodded: "Yes, we just got off the ship."

"I'm also from Tokyo. I was born there. This place is very different from Tokyo, right? The air is fresh and quiet!"

After chatting for a while, Asai Narumi returned to the clinic, looking a little disappointed.

Unexpectedly, the famous detective Mouri Kogoro didn't find anything wrong after he came here.

He has obviously given the reminder!

As a small island that is not a tourist attraction, its main livelihood industry is fishing, but there are several wealthy people on the island. Is this normal?

Recall what Chen Shi said not long ago: "Mouri Kogoro is a confused detective, but he has smart people around him."

Thinking again about the performance of the three of them just now, Mao Lilan was gentle, Kogoro was in a daze, but the child was squinting and didn't know what to write.

There's no way this kid is the smart one, right?

"Why!"

With a sigh, Asai Narimi changed into clothes and prepared to go to the public hall to implement the plan.

Although Chen Shi said he would help him, he was empty-handed. What if he waited and Chen Shi ran away in the end?

On the other side, Kogoro and the other three arrived at the public hall.

After giving his name, he fell into a long wait, which made Kogoro very unhappy and his thoughts began to wander.

"Speaking of which, the public facilities on this island are a bit too good. Maybe the rich people on the island donated money?"

"And that kid Chen Shi, I'm so envious of him for being so famous."

Unlike Kogoro, Conan always felt something was wrong. He kept looking around and saw a dark piano behind a door.

Feeling suspicious, I entered on my own to check it out.

"Conan, don't run away!" Mao Lilan chased after him and wanted to take Conan back, but was stunned when he saw such a piano suddenly placed in such a spacious room.

Kogoro was just having some free time. When he heard Mao Lilan calling Conan, he quickly followed him. When he entered the room, he was also shocked. He complained in his heart, "This room is almost as big as my office!"

The village chief's assistant, Hirata Kazaki, who went to report the incident, came back and saw the piano room door open. He was so frightened that he rushed in and told the three people not to move.

When asked why, he said it was to avoid unknowns, but actually he was afraid of being discovered that there was something hidden under the piano, which made him even more mysterious.

Conan didn't believe it anymore. He put his little finger on the piano and pressed it, and said arrogantly: "Nothing happened!"

Hirata Kazaki didn't want the three of them to stay inside for a moment, so he hurriedly chased them away, slammed the door, and warned: "Anyway, you guys will wait at the entrance before the ceremony is over!"

Before the three people who were kicked out had a chance to complain, they bumped into Asai Narumi, who was coming from behind. After chatting for a few times, they began to wait boredly.

During the legal ceremony, the current village chief of Tsukiyage Island, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, asked Hideo Kawashima, the candidate village chief and the richest man on the island, "Did you call that detective over to test me?"

Hideo Kawashima was disdainful, "How is that possible!"

Then he got up and left in the name of going to the toilet.

In the corner, Asai Shimizu clenched his hands, knowing it was time to take action, and got up and left after a few minutes.

However, after going around for a while, no trace of Hideo Kawashima was found. Just as he was wondering, the words suddenly rang in his mind: "I will help you solve those people in the way you want."

He immediately came to the room where the piano was placed, and after opening the door, his pupils suddenly shrank.

I saw bright red almost filling the entire space. The source of the color, Hideo Kawashima, was lying on the piano. Several huge gaps almost tore him apart. The contents of his body were flowing all over the floor. His expression seemed to be that he had seen something extremely terrifying.

.

Even Asai Narimi, who was ready to kill, could not accept such a horrific scene. He suppressed the feeling of vomiting and returned to the funeral site with a pale face.

Conan, who was sitting at the door of the public hall, was still thinking that someone might be tuning the piano frequently, and the sound of the piano reached his ears.

After a brief reaction, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and whispered: "Moonlight?! Oh no!", and was the first to run to the piano room and open the door.

Then his face turned pale instantly and he retreated uncontrollably.

He has seen many dead people in various places and at various times, but he has never seen such a brutal scene!

"Conan!"

Hearing Mao Lilan's shouting, Conan immediately stopped him: "Don't come over!"

It turned out to be too late. Mao Lilan was frightened and fainted by such a bloody scene after arriving at the scene.

It’s a bit difficult to write, so I’ll hold it back for a while. The scene characterization is related to the new props, which I’ll write about in the next few chapters.
