The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan
Chapter 437: Sunrise (Additional update to Cocoon Bird)
"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Chengshi."
"It's okay. It's really hard for everyone to come here from Tokyo so late." Naomi Asai raised her lowered head with a soft smile, "Should I stay here to continue the inspection, or can I go first?" gone back?"
At this moment, the police officers who greeted her became embarrassed.
The incident happened suddenly. They were called over overnight by the Memu Police Department in the name of investigating a violent drug trafficking gang. The Forensic Section of the Investigation Section 1, which mainly handles murder cases, did not follow them at all. The forensic doctor would not follow the people to the island until daytime. I had to trouble the only doctor on the island to do a preliminary investigation.
Look at the sky outside. It's almost dawn. As an innocent resident involved in the case, this doctor has been up all night.
"The forensic doctors will take over the rest of the work in a few hours, please excuse me." Mouri Kogoro, who also looked tired, came over and said hello to her, "Xiaolan and the others are fine there. Bar?"
"Nothing happened, but I didn't seem to sleep well because of the case..."
While he was talking, Mouri Kogoro's cell phone rang.
"What's wrong, Xiaolan... have you cracked the code of the music score?"
Asai Narimi smiled, waved to him as a farewell gesture, bowed slightly, turned around and walked out.
"Yes, Conan said that the murderer's next target is likely to be Hirata Kazuaki. And dad..." Looking at the thick sheet of music on the table with a complicated mood, Mao Lilan said in a slightly trembling voice, "The man on the island Mr. Policeman, is he with you?"
"That old man is here, what's wrong?"
"Can you ask him again? Mr. Keiji Aso, does he have a son?"
Touching the first page of the pile of music scores with her fingertips, Mao Lilan looked at the Roman notes written by Conan with extremely complicated emotions.
"Written to my son, SEIJI..."
————
Walking in the faint morning light, Asai Narumi carefully looked at the surrounding vegetation again, smelled the smell of the sea breeze, and climbed down the stairs step by step.
As he walked, he untied the hair tie that tied up his hair, letting it hang loosely on his shoulders.
When he was not wearing a skirt or wearing a feminine hairstyle, his delicate and heroic demeanor turned into a very bookish handsomeness, and no one would be able to misidentify his gender.
Originally, he was still thinking about how to solve Hirata Kazuaki's problem...
His enemies were indeed dead, and his revenge should have ended there.
But seeing his collaborators struggling back and forth between reality and fantasy in order to solve the remaining problems related to drugs, he thought that after accepting their help, he also had an obligation to do something for them.
He originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of infiltrating the police force to kill Hirata Kazaki, a guy who was also deeply involved in the drug trafficking chain. At this point, he had already prepared for the worst. Just take away a criminal who is also not innocent.
But after confirming the death of his last enemy, he was also preparing to end his own life. He gradually felt a broadening of his mind, and a vague premonition slowly came to his mind.
Yes, Kameyama, who died in front of him two years ago, did not die of a heart attack as everyone thought. He, perhaps, was an individual with certain special powers like those Phantom Thieves.
His intense emotions may have triggered the mechanism, and he killed the "soul of Kameyama" in the dimension of that world.
And now he, who has no scruples and doubts in his heart and is about to embrace death calmly and calmly, can definitely do better.
So what if I kill Hirata alone? Can this chain of huge interests be ended? Can it end the sad fate of Moon Shadow Island?
Those harmonious islanders, including the upright-looking new candidate Qingshui, aren't there other evil spirits hidden among them?
Moon Shadow Island, Moon Shadow Island, they are the shadow of the moon, the back of the moon that never sees light.
Those things that cannot be seen in the light, let them pass away in the darkness.
The sun is about to rise.
————
"Leader." Hoshikawa Hui, who was resting on the bench with his eyes closed, felt the change in light for the first time, opened his eyes immediately, and called Tang Ze.
Tangze, who was leaning on Noah with his eyes closed to rest, stood up in the next second and observed the situation in the hall.
In the surface impression space of an eternal day, the sun that had been hanging high in the sky suddenly began to set westward at a very fast speed. A small town with warm sunshine was covered by the sunset in just tens of seconds.
Under the dim light, row upon row of small town buildings cast long oblique shadows, instantly covering the residents walking among them.
A minute ago, it was a peaceful and peaceful paradise. At this moment, everyone has become a blur of figures walking in the shadows. The atmosphere has become bleak and strange in an instant. Coupled with the blood-colored sunset, it is like the ultimate scene of the impending doomsday.
"It seems that Asai Narumi is ready to take action." Karasawa patted Noah, "Pay attention to the enemy target prompts in the whole map. Let's go to the opposite side of the Fox Window to have a look."
————
"Mr. Aso also has a son who was frail and sick and had to live in a hospital in Tokyo for a long time for treatment when he was very young." Mao Lilan's fingertips on the music sheet had curled up, and tears filled her eyes.
"Narumi, Seiji..." Conan picked up the badge hanging on his white coat and gritted his teeth.
Physician licenses do not indicate pseudonyms in Chinese characters, and after the death of Keiji Aso and his family, Asai Narimi, who lost his family, was adopted and changed his surname.
After not returning to the island for more than ten years, and changing his gender and surname, Aso Keiji's son, Aso Minoru, returned to the place of his birth without anyone noticing.
Although his method of killing is still unclear, the person who had the motive to kill these people and sent the commission letter to Uncle Mori could only be the only survivor of the Aso family.
"Dad said that Dr. Narumi has left the room, and Secretary Hirata did not show anything strange." Thinking of Asai Narumi's gentle smile full of soothing power, and thinking of his dramatic origin and past, Mao Lilan's eyes The tears kept rolling.
It's so sad, everything is so sad.
Take a look at the music score that was used as a suicide note in front of you. It not only mentioned the sincere wishes for his son, but also told him not to return to Moon Shadow Island. There was too much darkness hidden here.
Combined with what they encountered today, it is not difficult to imagine that Keiji Aso's death was by no means as simple as suicide.
Even if he really committed suicide, it was the most violent resistance that a musician with no background could make after being forced to the point of desperation by those people...
Under the background of this tragedy, everything that happened yesterday and today seemed to be an inevitable and inevitable move.
After receiving the commission and coming here, they could do nothing, nothing could stop them, and they became bystanders of this cycle of revenge.
The audience in the audience, no matter how full of emotions they have, are so helpless about what is happening on the stage...
"Is he going to leave or run away?" Putting away some sadness, Mao Lilan was half asking Conan, half talking to himself, "Everyone related to that year has died. He really should want to Leave this place."
leave? No, it's impossible...
Think about the commission sent to Uncle Maori, and then think about "Moonlight" with the appearance of the three dead people like a memorial... This is not an arrangement made by a person who wants to escape after revenge. The strong sense of ritual also represents the murderer's strong desire to end all grudges in a symbolic way.
As the final scene of a drama that is full of ritual and echoes from beginning to end, it is impossible for Asai to walk away silently.
Think about it, calm down and think about it.
If it were me, if I were this Hamlet who had completed his revenge full of grief and anger, what would I want to do now...
"Community Activity Center!" Conan suddenly raised his head, "The piano donated by Mr. Keiji Aso is still there. He will go there, and he will go there to play "Moonlight"!"
————
The community activity center, which has been pruned for more than ten years, still maintains its original structure even after several renovations. The entire two-story building is made of wooden structure.
In fact, more than a year ago, the islanders discussed whether to build a new center. After several discussions, the plan was rejected by the village chief of Heiyan. The reason was that the budget was too high to build a new port and develop transportation and tourism on the island. Industry……
Transportation, and tourism, is a bit ironic.
But this made it easier for him to think.
It just so happens that Kuroiwa Tatsuji is dead. If Mr. Shimizu is not involved in these things and is really an upright candidate, it just so happens that the remaining islanders can also have a new activity center...
This isolated island needs a new look, right?
There was Xianxin talking and laughing in his heart. Asai Narumi watched the flames shoot up along the window frame in an instant, quickly igniting the outer wall and eaves of the second floor in the strong sea breeze. He closed the window that started to burn slowly again. , turned around and sat down in front of the piano.
Studying medicine is very busy. Since entering college, he has had fewer and fewer opportunities to sit in front of the piano.
Even after coming to Moon Shadow Island, he rarely touched the black and white keys for fear of exposing his relationship with his father and causing any association with those who knew about it.
But sure enough, some things will leave a mark in your heart for a lifetime.
Just like him, just like these four villains - even if they only learned some piano in childhood, they still invariably took out the secret codes they developed when they were studying piano with their father and used them in dirty deeds. On it?
It's really interesting.
Asai Naomi opened the cover of the piano in front of him, touched the cold keys with his hands, and the melody that kept echoing in his ears, always reminding him that he did not dare to forget his hatred, naturally flowed out from his fingertips.
Thanks to his collaborators for calibrating the piano sound for him in order to set up the scene of Kawashima's death.
Let him use this song as Yueying Island's funeral song.
Asai Narumi closed his eyes.
"It's "Moonlight Sonata"!" Running on the road with the rising sun, their ears caught the sound of the piano on the quiet island. Conan and Mao Lilan's eyes widened, and they speeded up their pace in unison.
Faster, faster!
"Moonlight Sonata." He ran up the red pillar of the Fox Window along the hillside. Hearing the faint sound of music coming from above, Tang Ze raised his head and saw a huge full moon rising from the other side of the mountain. Started, "Asai Narumi will play "Moonlight", it seems that he has made up his mind."
"The passage is lit up." Miyano Akemi raised her hand and pointed at the center of the fox window, as if sunlight was pouring out of the tunnel.
Before that, the surface of the island had always been sunny, but the darkness of the corridor was like leading to an endless abyss and hell, with no bottom.
"The master of the hall is exerting his greatest strength and is going to cause big trouble." Continuing to run forward, the blindfold on Tangze's face quickly melted, and the masked figure floated behind him, "He may be extremely aggressive now. .Be prepared for defense!”
"What a big fire..." Looking at the completely ignited building exterior, Mao Lilan murmured in surprise, "How could it burn so fast..."
Smelling the pungent smell of gasoline, Conan opened his eyes wide as he looked at the rapidly spreading fire.
Could it be that Asai Narumi wanted to take them out of the activity center and go to his clinic just to pour gasoline around and make the current arrangement?
Did he originally plan to commit suicide? !
"What should I do? If it's just a bucket... Conan!"
Still looking around to find tools to extinguish the fire or to briefly pass through the fire scene, Mao Lilan turned her head and saw the small figure passing through the burning door and rushing into the activity center.
"Doctor Chengshi, Doctor Chengshi!" Shouting loudly, Conan pushed open the door at the end of the corridor.
Asai Narumi, who was sitting in front of the piano and playing selflessly, turned his head slightly in surprise and looked at the child who broke in.
"Dang!"
Hoshikawa Teru, who was using dodge to avoid Shadow Asai Narumi's arrow, was about to follow Karasawa's attack and step forward when he suddenly heard the sound of the arrow hitting something hard.
When he turned his head, he saw the tomboy wearing a blue suit and tie, standing between them and the shadow Narumi Asai.
The moment he opened his arms, a non-existent wall seemed to appear, blocking all the opponent's attacks.
"Is this why you insist on taking those two children to the clinic?" After kicking the arrows that were densely packed on the ground, Miyano Akemi relaxed a little and stood side by side with Karasawa.
"Absolutely." Tang Ze moved his neck and relaxed his arched back. "Although the relative position of this cave is definitely different from that of the clinic, it is basically where the clinic is. Since this is a cave that can generate people from all over the island, A high-level master of models can generate two dolls in his own clinic in just a matter of minutes."
"Where in general?" Xingchuan Hui rolled his eyes secretly, "It's so far away! Thank you for being able to think of it at this level."
"Shade is stupid." Noah turned his head and glanced at Xingchuan Hui, "This impression space is completely reversed from the Moon Shadow Island in reality. The orientation is reversed, and the up and down is also reversed. In the impression space, it is a cliff. Up, in reality, it’s the clinic at the foot of the mountain.”
"As long as we can delay his attack a little bit, that's all." Taking back his mask, Karasawa curled his lips as he looked at Cognizant Conan, who stood in front of Narumi Asai with his arms open and unrelaxed.
As long as he saw the music score, it would be impossible for him to ignore Asai Narumi, a murderer surrounded by tragedy.
Faced with a joker who is very likely to break laws and disciplines all day long, doesn't this detective also have a strong sense of martial ethics?
"Okay, I'll go outside and bring him in for a look." Tang Ze turned his head and glanced at the impression space outside the cliff cave.
A red sun is emitting blazing light, rising in this eternal night-like purgatory.
Flocks of birds in the sky screamed and fled in the scorching sun. The scorching sun illuminated this twisted land without reservation.
"He wants to single-handedly destroy all the shadows on Yueying Island to complete the strangulation of the drug dealer chain... It has to be said that he can disguise himself and change his identity, endure it for two years, and quietly investigate all the Things, and the ability to accept the settings of the cognitive world as quickly as possible, adapt quickly, and prepare to use his own cognitive power... Asai Narumi is a powerful guy."
"Little detective, I just heard that you solved the mystery of the music score." Without leaving his fingers from the increasingly hot keys, Asai smiled at Conan, "That's amazing, kid."
"No, you can't die here!" Conan took two breaths and said loudly, "Mr. Aso, didn't he also write on the music score left for you? 'Narishi, you have to live strong alone, Grow up well, he definitely doesn't want you to die with his enemies in order to avenge him... It's not too late now, leave here quickly!"
Asai Narumi tilted her head and smiled in relief and loneliness.
"It's too late, little detective, it's too late." After the last note, Asai turned around, grabbed Conan's collar, and lifted him up from the ground, "When everything started , maybe it’s too late.”
"No, the evidence in the current case is not sufficient. Even if you surrender yourself, as long as you identify yourself, you are a family member of the victim, they are all drug dealers... Go to court, these will be considered by the prosecutor-! "
"But what difference does that make? I have indeed killed four people without any remorse." The fire followed the cracks in the floor and burned onto the piano next to him, illuminating his dark eyes into bright gold. , "I want to end all cycles of evil. I hope to use my life as firewood to burn away the rotten evil roots of this island... I am a murderer with blood on my hands. I don't deserve sympathy, little detective." "
"Doctor Chengshi, Chengshi——"
"boom--"
Asai Naomi raised his hands and smashed the small child in his hand towards the large window in front.
There was a sound of glass breaking, and Conan passed through the blazing wall of fire, smashed the window, and fell outside the activity center.
"Conan!" The panicked Mao Lilan hurriedly ran over and hugged Conan, who was dirty and covered in smoke and dust. "It's dangerous, don't go there!"
Watching him fall on the lawn outside, Asai smiled and opened his hands amid the increasingly hot flames.
The golden light in his eyes flourished, and an invisible twisted force field spread in the world of another dimension.
