"Mr. Police, Conan, you are too slow. Everyone is tired of waiting and has gone back."
"What? You said the suspects have all gone back?"
"Yes. The last message left by the criminal was 'The hatred of the fire of karma will be eliminated here', so it should be over and there will be no more murders."
Conan looked serious and thought it was impossible. So far, the first and second movements of Beethoven's Moonlight have been played at the murder scene, but the Moonlight Sonata has three movements in total, and the third movement has not yet appeared!

"I want to go to the Civic Center to take a look!"
Conan said and ran out. Xiaolan called Conan to wait, but it didn't work, so she had to run to catch up, and the old police officer fell behind. After Conan arrived, he turned on the lights in the corridor and waited. "Hurry up and open the warehouse!" As soon as the old police officer arrived, he hurriedly urged. During this process, he heard a sound - coming from the piano room.
"Did you hear any strange noises coming from the piano room just now?" Conan turned around and asked Xiaolan.
"No……"
Conan thought he heard something. He quickly ran to the piano room and opened the door. There was a shadow in the moonlight. Before he could speak, the shadow suddenly broke through the window and escaped outside. "Wait a minute!" He tried to chase after it, but he tripped over something. After falling, he turned around and saw Murasawa Shuichi lying on the floor with his fingers twitching.
Before he had time to think about it, Xiaolan's scream was heard in the corridor again.
"storehouse!"
Conan immediately turned back and saw Ken Nishimoto hanged at the door of the warehouse.
The expression became more ferocious, the chin was stretched longer, and the whole corpse exuded an atmosphere of horror and madness.
At the same time, the third movement of moonlight sounded in the house.
The sad melody is extremely inconsistent with the horrific crime scene.
"Mr. Police, hurry up and inform Officer Megure!" Conan shouted, walked into the warehouse, saw the phonograph on the table, and turned off the moonlight music. Now it is the third movement, which may mean that the serial murder case is really coming to an end.
"Conan, look. There is music score under Mr. Nishimoto's feet again."
Conan looked over as Xiaolan suggested and found a stack of music scores at Ken Nishimoto's feet, still written in the form of musical notes representing pinyin.
"Conan, what does it say this time?"
"Suicide note."
"Suicide note!? Then..."
So Mr. Nishimoto committed suicide. Xiaolan was speechless for a moment.
Not long after, Inspector Megure and his team arrived. Most of the police were on duty outside. Megure came to the warehouse and assigned forensic personnel to collect evidence. Conan handed the music score to Megure, and after Megure mastered the interpretation rules, he easily read the content on it. He concluded: "According to what was written in the suicide note, he regretted killing Kawashima and Kuroiwa..."
"Did Nishimoto kill those two people?" asked Kogoro.
"The motive seems to be that the five of them had made mistakes in the past, and they killed them to silence them in order to avoid being exposed. These five people are Kameyama who died two years ago, Kawashima and Kuroiwa who were killed this time, Nishimoto who hanged himself, and Aso Keiji who committed suicide by setting himself on fire twelve years ago."
"Then, that pianist..."
"What on earth are they doing with these codes?"
Maori Kogoro held his chin and said, "It turned out that Nishimoto was afraid that the secret of the past would be discovered, so he sneaked into this warehouse and wanted to destroy the music score, but he couldn't find the music score. Because he had no other choice, he chose to commit suicide..."
"I don't think it was suicide." Conan interrupted, "Would a suicidal person use secret codes to write his suicide note? Moreover, the third movement of Moonlight in this room didn't sound until after we found Mr. Nishimoto's body, and there were more than ten minutes of blank time on the tape. If he hanged himself right after pressing the play button, there would be no need to set such a long time. But if it was set by the murderer, the murderer might have used this time to find the music score and escape."
Officer Megure's cheeks were sweaty, and he swallowed his saliva: "Are you saying that the murderer is actually someone else?"
"You little brat, stop making trouble!" Mouri Kogoro lowered his iron fist, but this time Conan had already seen the trajectory of his attack and dodged it easily. Kogoro himself almost fell to the ground.
"Because I just saw a very suspicious person."
"What!?" Kogoro and Megure said at the same time.
"Yes," Conan nodded, "There are two people in the piano room. One of them broke through the window and escaped, and the other one is Mr. Murasawa. At that time, he was knocked unconscious by someone, and now he is staying in the piano room, receiving treatment from Dr. Chengshi."
As soon as Conan finished speaking, Kogoro took advantage of his unpreparedness and punched Conan again, leaving a bump on his head. Seeing this, Xiaolan complained and shouted, "Dad! What are you doing? How can you be so violent to a child!"
He will really be beaten stupid! Conan held his head, gritting his teeth in pain. This violent uncle was really not gentle with his blows.
Inspector Megure returned to the warehouse, found the old officer, and asked, "How is it? Has the sheet music left by Mr. Aso not been found yet?"
"After all, it was twelve years ago, and I have forgotten where I put it."
Megure, who failed to get any clues, came to the piano room. Murasawa Shuichi, who was lying on the ground, showed no signs of waking up. He looked at Cheng Shi: "Has he not regained consciousness yet?"
"Yes, I think it's probably a concussion." Cheng Shi judged.
Megure looked at Kuroiwa Reiko, who was looking at the fallen Murasawa with a sad face. "Ms. Kuroiwa, I want to ask you, what is Mr. Murasawa doing here at this late hour?"
"How should I know that?" she replied irritably.
Conan, who was standing nearby, discovered that Mr. Murasawa had another small hammer with a handle in his hand.
Is this... a tuning hammer?
The next second, the hammer in his hand was snatched away by Heiyan Lingzi. "Don't touch it, this is Monday's thing, okay?" she yelled.
"What is this?" Megure asked.
"I don't know, but Monday always holds it very carefully."
Since it is a tuning hammer, this person is the one who maintains the piano, but why does he do this?
"Okay, have all the suspects gather at the village office immediately!"
Megure ordered everyone to leave together. Before Ran left the room, she noticed that Conan was still inside and had crawled under the piano.
"Conan, what are you doing? You're going to the village office."
"The person who escaped from this room seemed to be looking for something under the piano!" When Conan entered the room, the shadow suddenly jumped out. Thinking carefully, the only place in the room where the person could hide was the piano in the middle. He searched under the piano and found a square wooden area at the bottom that was not tightly fitted. After pushing it upwards, a narrow secret compartment appeared. He said, "Look, this is it. I found it."
Xiaolan had no choice but to crawl under the piano. There was indeed a hidden place inside. She put her hands in it. "Isn't this a hidden secret door? It's very interesting." Just like in a TV show, but she didn't find anything inside. Conan looked at the bottom of the secret compartment and found some white powder on the ground. He took a little and put it in his mouth.
This is! ?
QQ: 9 14 9 0 37 98
That drug!
Conan made a conclusion.
Afterwards, he and Xiaolan went to the village office together and happened to see Megure speaking.
"From the circumstances, the murderer of the three incidents on the island is definitely the same person. Dr. Chengji and Miss Kuroiwa Reiko both have alibis, so between Mr. Hirata, Mr. Shimizu, and Mr. Murasawa who is currently receiving treatment in the hospital, the murderer must be among the three of you."
At this time, the forensic officer arrived with an envelope in his arms: "Officer, the photos of the scene where Mr. Kuroiwa was killed have been developed."
"Okay, just put it on the table."
"Yes!"
Conan, who was somewhat unwilling to accept the incident, looked through the photos, hoping to find some useful clues. He saw the death of Kuroiwa Village Chief from a series of photos, and found a glowing button next to his body.
Button to rewind the tape!
This means that the time frame in which the murder occurred has been expanded from the ten minutes left blank to nearly forty minutes, which means that the number of suspects has further increased.
Why did the criminal do this? To confuse the scope and direction of the police's investigation? But this cannot clear his own suspicion. When using such a sleight of hand, it is easy for others to see through it. However, in the first case, the same tape change occurred, leaving a blank space of 5 minutes and 30 seconds, that is, using people's inertial thinking to confuse the audience.
Even knowing this, he still couldn't be sure who the culprit was. But in this way, the alibis of Dr. Chengshi and Kuroiwa Reiko were invalidated. However, in the first step of the interrogation, many people could prove that Dr. Chengshi did not leave the scene during the ritual. Since the murderer was the same person, Dr. Chengshi could not be the murderer. To accomplish these three cases, one must have a strong enough physique. Can a thin woman really do it?

At this time, Hirata and Akira asked the police officer to go out and buy some drinks to quench their thirst. Conan looked back and saw Hirata's left hand wrapped in a bandage.
The person who broke out of the piano room window was definitely him. If you break a window directly in an emergency, you will most likely use your arms and fists, and it is easy to get cut by broken glass. Conan came to the conclusion and quietly followed Hirata Kazuaki to the vending machine outside the entrance and quietly stood behind him.
"Hey, uncle! There's white powder on your sleeves!" Conan pretended to be a curious child and said to him.
The next second, Hirata Kazuaki was so nervous that he danced with his hands and checked his cuffs. However, he did not find the powder residue that Conan mentioned, but in a panic he dropped his wallet, and the coins were scattered all over the floor.
"Uncle, you have a lot of foreign coins."
Conan said, more certain. These are all evidence that he bought illegal drugs from abroad and then sold them to the country. In other words, the person who injured Mr. Murasawa was Hirata Kazuaki. The reason was probably that Mr. Murasawa discovered his secret when he was tuning the piano and knocked him unconscious in a hurry. But this was not enough for him to confirm the culprit of the case. On the contrary, the condition of the two people at the time of the incident proved that they were most likely unrelated to the case.
Hirata was trying to retrieve the drugs hidden in the piano, and Mr. Murasawa was trying to tune the piano. Would someone go to the piano room to repair the piano as if nothing had happened after killing someone? In this case, only Mr. Shimizu, one of the three, or Ken Nishimoto, who had hanged himself, was left. Although the possibility was low, it could not be ruled out - his mental state was clearly at a critical point.
what happened?
It seems that there is something he still doesn't know about this case. He may have been led by the criminal and fell into a trap, Conan thought uneasily. Obviously, this series of events is related to the death of Keiji Aso twelve years ago, but what is the relationship between the murderer and him? Since he invited his uncle to come to Yueying to investigate in the name of Keiji Aso, he must keep the secret as written in the "suicide note" of Ken Nishimoto, or to help Keiji Aso avenge.
If it is possible that the investigation was interfered with in the name of Keiji Aso, then the possibility of Mr. Shimizu committing the crime increases.
The problem is, evidence.
Conan's eyes widened. He had to think in other directions, but there were only three people left who could have completed this serial murder case. Could it really be that Ken Nishimoto did it? To cover up the evil deeds of the four people?
While he was thinking, hazy smoke suddenly rose in the sky. Looking down, orange-red fire formed mottled blocks in the sky. Oh no! That direction is the community center! The police officer is still there! Could it be that the suspect blurred the scene? Did the murderer leave the village smoothly after committing the crime? But even if the tape was replayed, it could only reach less than 50 minutes at most. During this period, the interrogators still kept records. There was no way to escape on the island late at night.
Conan ran quickly among the villagers, and when he arrived at the door, the entire village had turned into a sea of fire.
"Damn it! Officer! Officer, can you hear me?" When he was calling out, other police officers on duty also noticed it and rushed here to help put out the fire, and there were also spontaneous actions by the villagers.
"The third movement of moonlight..."
"If the criminal is Nishimoto Ken, he is already dead, so he couldn't have done something like arson. But, just now everyone was in the village office. Could it be that there is no real criminal among those being interrogated?"
When he was feeling powerless and frustrated, he suddenly heard a whimpering sound of struggle. Conan went around to the beach behind the community center and saw the police officer who was tied up like a dumpling and twisting like a slug.
It turns out that everything is fine... Conan grinned and watched the waves hit the old policeman.
He helped him untie the rope and asked, "Officer, what happened?"
"I don't know! I only know that he was a tall man wearing all black. He tied me up and he must have set the fire in the community center."
"Tall man, in black clothes!?"
Conan, who was suffering from PTSD due to the Black Organization, suddenly thought of the faces of Gin and Vodka, the two culprits who caused him to go back in time ten years. Will they be on this island? Wait, that abnormal foreign man who came to visit the island, will he have any connection with this incident? What about the possibility of an outsider committing the crime...
Conan was completely at a loss as to what to do and could not find any useful clues. The criminal seemed to have arranged every link long ago and knew the deceased very well. He even guessed that Ken Nishimoto would definitely go to the warehouse to destroy Keiji Aso's music score. Why did the murderer not want Keiji Aso's manuscript to be found? Could it be that there was information related to him in it, so he did not hesitate to burn down the entire warehouse?
Finding Keiji Aso's manuscript may help solve the mystery of the serial murders.
"Now, the most crucial information is gone..."
Conan realized that the information between the two parties was not equal. Even if the murderer risked burning down the entire warehouse, he would not be able to obtain any useful information because he did not know the secret twelve years ago, and before the secret was revealed, all the insiders had died. Could the criminal really go unpunished? Conan felt a headache. This was the first time he had encountered such a difficult case. In this psychological game with the murderer, he was completely in a passive situation.
"It seems that I lost this time."
The murderer who destroyed witnesses and physical evidence may no longer be in the category of suspects. In addition, he may not even be alone. If there are other people on the island helping him, they will have no way of judging and can only wait for the murderer to reveal his flaws.
……
Winnet, in disguise, held a stack of sheet music in her hand. Winnet, who knew a little about music, quickly sorted the notes into Roman letters and understood the contents of the music.
Cheng Shi's plan did not mention this unexpected factor, but his code method inspired her. Cheng Shi could use code to leave messages, and it was impossible for Keiji Aso, a musician, to not be able to do so. Therefore, the music score he left behind must have written down key information about the events of twelve years ago, and Cheng Shi, as Keiji Aso's only surviving child, must have mentioned him in it - otherwise it would not be a suicide note.
"If this thing is discovered, all our previous efforts will be in vain." Winnet looked at Conan through the telescope, "It seems that this little detective has guessed that the music score is crucial, but it's a pity."
She has taken the lead, and although this action has shaken the idea that the murderer is one person, it cannot pin the suspicion on Cheng Shi. How can a woman, a kind-hearted doctor, and a serial killer be the same person?
Winnet originally planned to burn the music score, but she kept it because she thought it was a suicide note to Cheng Shi. Then, she went to the man's residence, checked into the hotel, asked the waiter a little, and then knocked on the door of the man's room.
……
Hayden was originally scheduled to take action on the island, but he was unlucky enough that a murder case had occurred on the island and police from Tokyo were stationed on the island. Even if he revealed his identity and made his position clear to the Japanese, it would be difficult for him to escape the blame. Acting in Japan was a violation of the agreement between the two parties, so he chose to lie low for the time being.
He had already confirmed the target this time.
Although the way of dressing has changed, he can identify it at a glance by the very obvious hair color. The target became friends with the doctor on the island and was always under the police's nose, so he had to wait until he returned to take action.
Hayden was writing a letter to headquarters in the room when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
He came to the door cautiously and asked in stiff Japanese: "What's the matter?"
"Sir, please open the door. We are the police."
"Police? What do the police want to see me about?" he asked back.
"We have something to ask about the serial murders that occurred on the island. You have registered with the villagers and are an outsider on the island. We hope you can cooperate with our work."
Winnett assumed another voice and began to sing alone.
"Well, Mr. Officer..."
He opened the door slightly, but saw no one. He opened it a little more and a hand reached in and hit his wrist. The pain was so severe that he instantly let go of his hand.
The door was pushed open by Winnet, and she got close to Hayden in an instant and stabbed the sharp knife into his neck.
Hayden's eyes widened before he died.
What is this terrifying speed?
As he retreated, the opponent approached him like an illusory ghost. He didn't even have time to roar before the sharp blade pierced his neck!
