Conan: When I Be Gin's Brother

"Judging from the Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata played every time a body is found, these cases should have been committed by the same prisoner."

Standing in the lobby on the first floor of the village office, Officer Memu looked around at the people around him and continued to analyze.

"Furthermore, judging from the blank time in the tape, Mr. Kuroiwa was killed a few minutes before he was discovered, that is, around 6:25."

"That is to say, except for Detective Maori and the others, everyone in this village office is suspected!" Megumi raised his eyes and watched every move of everyone in front of him with stern eyes.

"Wait a minute!" the village chief's daughter suddenly argued excitedly: "I have been undergoing your interrogation just now, how can I still have time to kill people!!"

Officer Memu nodded, "Indeed, you have alibi, which can rule out suspicion."

"The same goes for Dr. Narumi!" Conan looked in the direction of the voice. Kurosawa Rin, who had disappeared for a long time, returned here again at some point.

He stood behind Dr. Narumi, put his hands on Narumi's shoulders, and looked at Officer Megure with innocent and pure eyes.

"Because Dr. Chengshi went out with me at that time. Even if he just came back, he has always stayed by Sister Xiaolan's side and never left."

"Right, Sister Xiaolan." Kurosawa Rin looked at Xiaolan, while Mao Lilan was slightly stunned and nodded in response, "Yes, it is indeed what Rin-kun said."

Memu pondered for a moment, "Then only Dr. Narumi and Miss Lingzi are present and have alibi. There is no doubt about the suspicion of the others!"

Several suspects at the scene began to argue again. Kurosawa Rin looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and shook his head. He had no interest in watching these people argue.

If you have this time, you might as well go and see what little Conan is doing...

Locking Conan's figure in the room, Kurosawa Rin slowly moved behind him, squatted down and whispered into Conan's ear: "What are you thinking about..."

"Wow!" Conan's hair suddenly rose, and his hand shook in fright and the book fell to the ground.

He turned around and saw Kurosawa Rin's half-smiling face, and exhaled, "Really, please don't scare me anymore, okay?"

He bent down to pick up the notebook and glanced at Kurosawa Rin complainingly, before his eyes returned to the notebook again.

"I was observing the music score message left by the murderer."

"What do you mean..." Conan was lost in thought, but Rin Kurosawa behind him smiled playfully.

"I know, Conan, why don't you ask me to tell you?"

Conan twitched his eyes, what was Rin Kurosawa doing at this time? Now that he knows the meaning of the code, of course he should quickly decipher it and hand it over to the police!

After all, he is still a child with no regard for the overall situation...

"Please, tell me quickly." Conan shook his head, his tone was stiff and showed no emotion.

Kurosawa Rin pinched Conan's face hard, with a kind expression, "This is not the correct tone for asking for help."

"Um...Okay, please, Brother Rin!" Breaking away from Kurosawa Rin's hand, Conan rubbed his face in pain with a bad expression.

"What on earth does that mean?"

Kurosawa Rin coughed twice, and the sound suddenly became louder, attracting the attention of everyone present:

"Understand, you are next."

Hearing the somewhat ominous words, Officer Megure turned around and looked at Kurosawa Rin in shock: "You, what are you talking about, Kurosawa brother..."

"What did you mean by that sentence just now?"

Kurosawa Rin turned around and said calmly, "It's just a code."

"Secret code?!" Everyone was stunned, and Mu Mu said even more excitedly:

"Have you solved the mysterious music score code yet?!"

Kurosawa Rin nodded, "This is just the first one, and it's not a difficult problem. Just match the twenty-four letters with the keys on the piano one by one."

"Ah! It's just like this music score." Kurosawa Rin snatched the small notebook from Conan's hand and showed it to everyone:

"The message this time is: 'The resentment of sin will be eliminated here.' It's very simple as long as you know the trick, right?"

Kurosawa Rin showed a childlike smile in front of him, but everyone who heard the message invariably remembered the incident fifteen years ago, and their expressions became extremely frightened...

"The resentment of sin!"

"Could it be! What happened with Keiji Aso..."

"Hahahaha!!" Takeru Nishimoto, who had been unconscious behind him, suddenly laughed like crazy. He scratched his hair vigorously and kept mumbling:

"Keiji Aso, Keiji Aso is still alive!!"

"No, he's dead!" The old policeman suddenly appeared outside the door.

He walked towards the crowd slowly, as if sighing about the tragedy in the past, "I confirmed it at the beginning, and it was indeed Keiji Aso's family."

"Everything was burned down, and the fire lasted for half the night. Even the bones of their family were difficult to find, but what is certain is that all three of them were burned to death in the room, except for the one in the insurance room.

All the music scores and other items in the cabinet were burnt to ashes..."

"Music, music score?!" Everyone was shocked.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Officer Megure was so anxious that he was sweating. He asked the police anxiously, "Where is the music score now?"

"Where..." The old man frowned, as if he couldn't remember. He felt anxious when he saw Maori, Megure and the others.

"It seems to be in the warehouse of the public hall, but I don't know where I put the key..." The old policeman scratched his head carelessly.

At this time, Officer Memu couldn't care less about respecting the elderly and caring for the young. He couldn't bear it and yelled: "Then why don't we find it quickly!!"

"Ah...yes, yes!" The old policeman hurriedly ran out of the village office.

"I'm going to help too!" Conan quickly followed.

The waiting time this time was extremely long. Mao Li looked at the dark night and the hands on his watch had already pointed to eight o'clock.

"That's it for today, everyone should go back."

Officer Memu was stunned, "But brother Maori, we haven't determined yet whether the prisoner will commit another crime again!"

"You are wrong, Officer Memu." Maoli shook his head pretending to be profound, "Do you still remember what the prisoner wrote in his last code?"

"The resentment of sin is eliminated here."

"That is to say, this case is now over, and there will be no more murders from now on!"

Maori's tone was somewhat proud, as if he was waiting for Officer Memu's exclamation or praise.

"Hey!" Officer Megure exclaimed, "What do you think, Brother Kurosawa?"

"Brother Kurosawa?" Officer Megure looked back, but Rin Kurosawa's figure had already disappeared into the crowd.

"Really, where did you run away..."

…………

In the empty public hall, Kurosawa Rin walked out of the warehouse and gently closed the door behind him.

Carefully putting away the two lonely pieces of music in his hands, Kurosawa Rin slowly walked out of the public hall and threw the bent hairpin in his hand into the woods nearby.

"Hmph"

Kurosawa Rin walked briskly in the direction he came from.

The light at night stretched his figure very long. In the quiet and deep night, the only thing that could be vaguely heard was the unknown tune he hummed.
