Vol 20 Chapter 38: Play the piano

"So I think someone on the island must ask Uncle to ask you to help him investigate the matter called Keiji Aso."

"Yes." Mao Lilan also nodded in agreement: "Maybe it is Mr. Aso's good friend, go and ask the village chief on this island, maybe you can find a clue."

Kogoro Mori took out the letter, squeezed his chin and said, "Okay, I heard him say that Murakami should be in the public hall."

At the entrance of the Moon Shadow Island Clinic, a female nurse with a ponytail smiled at a child and said, "You know, Kenta, you must sleep well when you go back."

The child nodded in agreement, and then left.

Just when the female nurse was about to turn around and walk into the clinic, Mao Lilan walked over and asked, "Excuse me, where is the public hall?"

The female nurse pointed to the street on the right and replied: "After turning the corner ahead, just walk straight to the end."

Having said that, the female nurse suddenly asked expectantly: "Are you here from Tokyo?"

"Yes." Mao Lilan nodded and said, "I came by the boat just now."

"I was born in Tokyo, too." The female nurse said with a smile, "Yes, this island is different from Tokyo. It's great, the air is so fresh, and it's very quiet."

At this time, a miniature car drove past them quickly, and the loudspeaker on the car kept playing: Qingshui Zhengren, please vote for Qingshui Zhengren.

The female nurse said embarrassingly: "But this is an exception, because the election of the village chief will be held soon."

"Murakami election?"

"Candidates include the current fishermen's representative Mr. Shimizu, the current village head Mr. Kuroiwa who has recently been degraded, and Mr. Kawashima, the island's largest asset. The opinions of the patients are for Mr. Kawashima."

Seeing the female nurse talking more and more vigorously, Mouri Kogoro immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay, Miss Nurse, we are not interested in the election of the village chief at all."

The female nurse smiled indifferently and said, "I am the doctor here, Narumi Asai, and I still have an official medical license."

"It turned out to be a doctor..." Mouri Kogoro said embarrassedly.

"If you are going to the public hall, you can meet the three people I just mentioned."

"Oh?"

"Because tonight there will be a memorial service for the third anniversary of the former village head Mr. Kameyama."

"The former village chief..."

It was already nine o'clock in the morning when they arrived at the public hall, and a large number of people marching with signs gathered outside the public hall.

"The arrogance of the current village chief is not allowed! We want to defeat the privilege!" Although there are many people, the slogans are very uniform, like a well-trained army.

In the office, Tatsuji Kuroiwa stood in front of the window, muttering with an unhappy expression: "Really, tonight the former village chief's memorial service should be held, a group of rude guys!"

His daughter Heiyan Lingzi sat on the sofa and said, "Their group is really noisy, Hirata, what are you doing! Go and tell the guys outside to shut up!"

"Yes!" Hirata Kazuaki hurriedly agreed, and then hurried out.

After Kazuaki Hirata went out, a tall man with sunglasses and a knit hat leaning at the door walked in.

"Are there any questions."

"What, Monday." Heiyan Lingzi said.

Murazawa said on Monday: "In this election for the village chief, I heard that your father has a low chance of winning, isn't it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hideo Kawashima walked in and said, "Yes, all in all, I seem to be the one who has the most support from the villagers."

Heiyan Chenci sneered and said, "That's because you use money very cleverly."

"I learned from you."

At this time, Hirata Kazuaki hurriedly ran back and shouted, "This...someone outside wants to meet the village chief."

Heiyan Chenci frowned and said, "Who else will be at this time?"

"Yes..." Kazuaki Hirata said breathlessly, "It's Mr. Detective from Tokyo."

"What!" All the faces in the room changed drastically, "Detective?"

In the living room of the public hall, Kogoro Mouri pressed out the cigarette in the ashtray and said impatiently, "Really, how long will we have to wait?"

"Strange, where is Xie Chen?"

While they were waiting in the living room, Xie Chen quietly opened the door of the next room.

"Piano?" Only a black piano was placed in the spacious room.

"No, Xie Chen." Mao Lilan walked over and said.

"What's the matter?" Kogoro Mouri walked directly into the room, and went all the way to the window, "What a big room, there is the sea behind the public hall."

After looking around, Mao Lilan also walked in, "Why is this piano so dirty?"

Xie Chen said: "Just tidy up a little bit."

At this time, Hirata Kazuaki, who saw the door of the room opened, came over. He just saw Maori Lan who was about to tidy up the piano, and suddenly shouted in shock: "No! No! Don't touch it!"

The hands that Mao Lilan had just raised stopped in mid-air, and subconsciously stepped back.

"That piano was played at the concert on the day of Mr. Aso's death... the cursed piano!"

"No," said Kogoro Mouri, "How can this be cursed."

"It's not just Mr. Aso, the same thing happened to the former village chief."

"So that's Mr. Kameyama Yuki who worked today?"

"Yes." said Hirata Kazuaki, "that happened two years ago."

After a short pause, Hirata Kazuaki continued: "It was a full moon night. I happened to pass by this neighborhood. There should be no one in the public hall but the sound of someone playing the piano was heard."

"When I asked to confirm whether anyone was there, the sound stopped immediately. When I walked inside, Mr. Kameyama died on the piano. The cause of death was a heart attack."

"Also, until his death, the song played was the moonlight sonata that Mr. Aso played in the flames."

"Since then, this piano has been called a cursed piano without knowing it."

After Hirata and Akira finished speaking, Xie Chen directly pushed open the piano lid.

"Xie Chen..."

"This piano is no different at all." Xie Chen randomly pressed the piano. ..
