Chi Chufeng looked at him with a strange expression.

How would Conan feel if he found out this person's true identity in the future?

It might have gotten bent.

"Oh? You mean, you received a request from the deceased Mr. Keiji Aso?"

As Dr. Cheng Shi walked into her consultation room, she asked in surprise.

Kogoro Mouri smiled and said, "Yes, that's right. However, we already asked at the government office, and Mr. Keiji Aso is already dead."

"So, I deduced that the person who sent us this letter was most likely a friend of Mr. Keiji Aso."

"Moreover, the commission we received was no small sum, and his friend must be quite wealthy..."

After saying that, Conan rolled his eyes in Narumi's arms.

Hey Hey hey!

Uncle, which of these points you made was based on your own reasoning?

Kogoro Mouri glanced at the boxes of instant noodles on the table and was immediately taken aback.

"I never imagined Dr. Narumi's life was so difficult. You must be a very skilled doctor, why don't you go to Tokyo to develop your career?"

Asai Narumi placed Conan on a chair and, while examining him, said, "I have a reason to stay here. Besides, I originally had some savings, but unfortunately, they were all extorted by someone."

As she spoke, she glanced at Chi Chufeng.

Chi Chufeng couldn't help but touch his nose.

Is it my fault? You were the one who cried and begged to entrust this to me.

I did suggest you find someone else.

After examining Conan for a while, Asai Narumi smiled and patted Conan's head.

"The child is healthy and there's nothing wrong with him. He just has too much internal heat, which makes him prone to nosebleeds."

"Are you alright? That's good."

Kogoro Mouri felt a little unwilling to leave like this: "Dr. Narumi, could you tell me about the situation on the island and see if we can find the client?"

“Great, I’ve been on the island for three years now, and I know everyone here very well…”

He had barely finished speaking when he saw Chi Chufeng pull Xiao Lan to her feet.

"Mr. Mouri, you and Conan stay here. Ran and I will go out for a walk and find a place to eat and stay first."

"Okay, you guys go ahead."

Kogoro Mouri was very happy.

Without Xiaolan watching over him, he had more room to maneuver.

Asai Narumi froze, wanting to stop him, but didn't know what to say.

They could only watch helplessly as Chi Chufeng and Xiao Lan left.

Watching his retreating figure, Asai Narumi gritted his teeth.

What a bastard! He took my 20 million commission and didn't even bother to find out what happened?

That's incredibly irresponsible.

I had heard that he was a skilled Onmyoji who had helped the police solve several cases, which is why I spent a lot of money to hire him.

Now it seems we were clearly scammed.

This guy is clearly a charlatan!

Poor me, I've had to eat instant noodles for months just to make that 20 million yuan commission.

"Hey, Dr. Narumi, why do you look so pale?"

"I can't help but ask," Kogoro Mouri asked with concern.

"No, it's nothing, probably just from eating too much instant noodles..."

They chatted until dark before Kogoro Mouri and Conan finally left the clinic.

"Dr. Narumi, this is my business card. Please be sure to contact me if you ever go to Tokyo."

After saying goodbye to the beautiful doctor, Kogoro Mouri felt a little lost.

Conan, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.

"Uncle Mori, I think we should go to the community center first. The client might be inside right now."

"Well, it seems we should find a place to eat first..." Kogoro Mouri was a little hungry.

Before he could finish speaking, Conan interrupted him, saying, "Uncle Mori, I think we should go to the community center first! The three village chief candidates are inside right now."

"If one of them is the client, they might treat us to the most unique delicacies of Moonshadow Island."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Uncle Mori rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment, "Kid, what you said makes a lot of sense!"

The true delicacies of Moonshadow Island can only be found by the island's inhabitants.

Moreover, and most importantly, if he finds a client, the client will definitely treat him to a meal, so Kogoro Mouri won't have to spend any money.

"In that case, let's go check out the community center first."

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the community center, I saw a large group of people walking towards me from the opposite side.

"Lord Chichu, due to limited resources, our hospitality has been inadequate. Please forgive us."

"Mr. Shimizu, you're too kind. I'm so grateful to you and the villagers for allowing me to enjoy the special delicacies of Moon Shadow Island."

Chi Chufeng was exchanging pleasantries with a kind-looking middle-aged man.

Chapter 55 The Onmyoji is truly capable!

When Ran Mouri saw Kogoro Mouri and Conan, she quickly greeted them, "Dad, come here, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Masato Shimizu, he's going to be the next village chief."

"Oh, no, I'm just a candidate. Hello, Mr. Detective Mori, I've heard so much about you."

Conan walked up to Ran and asked curiously, "Why is Mr. Shimizu so enthusiastic?"

Ran, seeing that no one was paying attention, pulled Conan aside and whispered, "When we were looking for a hotel, we ran into Mr. Shimizu and the villagers who support him organizing an election campaign. Hearing that Mr. Akaso is a famous Onmyoji (yin-yang master) in Tokyo, the villagers very warmly invited us to dinner..."

"Brother Akaso must have said that Mr. Shimizu would be elected."

"Huh? How did you know?" Xiaolan asked in surprise.

"Heh." Conan curled his lip in disdain.

This charlatan is at it again, fooling people.

He's clearly a detective, why does he have to pretend to be an Onmyoji? When the election results come out, won't he be scolded by the villagers?

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? I brought you some leftover seafood." Xiaolan handed over a bag.

"seafood!"

Conan's big eyes immediately lit up.

"Wow, the seafood on Moonshadow Island is so delicious! Oh my!"

He punched Conan on the head, and a big bump immediately appeared.

"Kid, all you know is eating. Come and thank Mr. Shimizu. He has already arranged accommodations for us, and he has also covered all our food and drinks for the next few days."

"No need to thank me, no need to thank me. It is an honor for us villagers of Tsukikage Island to host the Onmyoji and the famous detective from Tokyo."

Although the fact that the famous detective was ranked after the Onmyoji made Kogoro Mouri a little unhappy, he was still very happy to be able to eat and drink for free.

A group of people were talking in front of the community center when suddenly, they heard piano music coming from inside.

The expressions on all the villagers' faces changed instantly.

"No way!"

"Isn't this piece of music..."

"moonlight!"

"The sound is coming from the piano room."

"The former village chief died while this song was playing..."

While the villagers were still talking, Conan had already run inside.

Kogoro Mouri followed behind him.

Ran Mouri originally wanted to go, but after looking at Akasoka, she decided to stay.

Holding Xiao Lan's hand, Chi Chufeng said to the villagers, "Don't worry, this might be a good thing for Moonshadow Island. Let's go and take a look."

The villagers immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"We are relieved to hear the words of the Onmyoji."

"That's right, with the Onmyoji here, what is there to be afraid of?"
