In other words, the murderer was someone who left half an hour ago, and it was a man. Therefore, the murderer must be one of those people!

At this moment, Miyazaki Yu saw Conan staring at those people with a glint in his eye, his eyes full of suspicion, and he sneered inwardly.

This was his plan. He successfully diverted the thief's suspicious gaze to someone else. He had already chosen the most suitable scapegoat. That guy probably didn't know that he was now very close to death.

Just when the case reached a stalemate, the old policeman on the island unexpectedly revealed a clue: when Keiji Aso died, he had stored some sheet music in a fireproof safe.

The sheet music had always existed, but he had put it somewhere. So Conan and the old policeman went to find the sheet music. The whole search process was very time-consuming. Meanwhile, Miyazaki Yu also began his operation.

Inside the storage room, Ken Nishimoto's pupils suddenly contracted.

"How could it be you? Keiji Aso actually has a son!"

He spoke in a trembling voice, his lips turning bluish-purple, before letting out a bitter laugh.

"My fears were right. We did those things back then, and we're really getting our comeuppance."

Miyazaki Yu said, "Dr. Asai, let's proceed according to our plan."

Asai Makoto's gaze sharpened, and he suddenly attacked. His attack was swift and fierce, and his strength was not much different from Ran's. Nishimoto Ken, who was already terrified, was no match for him and was knocked unconscious in an instant.

Watching his clean and efficient actions, Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly. This androgynous cross-dressing lady was efficient in her work, and with a little training, she could become a sharp weapon under his command.

Bayonetta was always basking in the glory of having forged a sharp blade, unaware that he was also cultivating his own weapon.

Makoto Asai took a deep breath and quickly began searching through the old papers for the musical scores his father had left behind. He then took out another old musical score and placed it back in its original place.

"Let's go, the show's about to begin!"

Chapter 161 The So-Called Truth

An hour later, the old policeman who had finally found the warehouse key, Conan who had been waiting impatiently, and Ran who had come along because she was worried about him, all successfully found the sheet music.

Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I got the sheet music, and nothing else seems to have happened in between. It seems the murderer didn't know the sheet music existed. Let me see if there are any clues in the sheet music."

He quickly flipped through the sheet music. Although it wasn't the same as in the original timeline, before finding this sheet music, he had seen two other sheet music left at the murder scene and found a way to decipher them.

However, the method of hiding information in this musical score is actually not complicated. Conan, who is good at deciphering codes and coded messages, quickly discovered the problem.

"If you start from the left side of the piano keyboard, arrange the English letters in order, and write the meaning you want to express on the sheet music in a phonetic way, then the meaning is: 'In memory of my son, and the sheet music is given to my adopted son, Zhou Yi!'"

At this moment, the old policeman also recalled.

"That's right. Many years ago, Keiji Aso not only had a daughter and a son, but also an adopted son. However, his son was frail and sickly, and it seems that his son died many years ago. As for the adopted son, he disappeared after that incident."

"Monday? Murasawa Monday!"

Conan's expression suddenly changed. He wanted to continue asking questions, but then he heard a noise coming from the music room. He rushed in to check, but then he heard a scream.

He hurriedly pushed open the door, only to hear a loud bang and see a figure running away into the distance. Conan's pupils constricted as he looked at the faint shadow.

"Is it him? Could it be...?"

At this moment, Conan also saw the situation in the room clearly. Conan was also startled. A fat figure was lying on the ground covered in blood, with a face full of pain. It was Hirata Kazumi, the village chief's secretary.

Moreover, he was holding a packet in his hand, a packet of white powder.

"This is heroin! It's a drug!"

At this moment, Conan took a deep breath, believing that he had found the 'truth' of the matter.

At the same time, he felt a sense of relief. The case was complicated and involved many people and events. The murderer was cruel and cunning.

If it weren't for this musical score from many years ago revealing the secret, finding the 'truth' would have been extremely difficult.

"No wonder that piano could still play accurate notes after so many years. It turns out that it was that person who was behind it."

Just then, Kogoro Mouri arrived with his group and was also taken aback by what he saw.

"I see. So this piano is where they hide their drug dealing place. They deliberately spread the word about the piano curse to prevent anyone from getting close and affecting their wicked schemes. But Hirata Kazumei is also in a coma now. Who is the murderer?"

Inspector Megure was starting to have a headache. The police had already arrived, but the murderer was still committing crimes, which was really too brazen. However, the case was complicated, and finding the murderer would probably require a lot of trouble.

Just then, Kogoro Mouri's voice came through the radio station.

"Officer, I know the truth now! I know the whole truth about the case!"

In the hall, Miyazaki Yu smiled at Ran and said, "Ran, it seems that Uncle Mori already knows the truth. He truly lives up to his reputation as a great detective."

Xiaolan was still somewhat surprised and doubtful: "Dad? But he was just complaining that he couldn't find the murderer, and now he actually found him?"

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "We don't need to rush. Just listen now. As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you."

"The whole case is very complicated. Two people were murdered, and we also discovered a shameless hidden scheme. Hirata Kazumi and Mr. Kawashima used the so-called cursed piano in the piano room to carry out their criminal drug business!"

But Mr. Hirata was not the murderer of those two people; the murderer was someone else!

"Mr. Kawashima was held down in the sea and drowned, while Chief Kuroiwa was killed with a single stab. Both of these deaths required a great deal of strength, so the murderer must be a man, and this person has no alibi!"

Inspector Megure's gaze swept over the crowd: "In that case, the person without an alibi is..."

Before Inspector Megure could finish speaking, a large amount of smoke and dust suddenly billowed out of the hall.

Miyazaki Yu's expression changed: "Everyone be careful, this is sleeping gas!"

He quickly grabbed Xiaolan, scooped the girl into his arms in a princess carry, and then leaped out of the window like a swift cheetah.

Conan, who was in the broadcasting room, also heard Miyazaki Yu's voice and his expression changed.

"That guy actually had a backup plan! By the way, Mr. Nishimoto hasn't shown up for the past few hours, could it be...?"

None of them had Miyazaki Yu's skills. Although they heard the warning, they still accidentally inhaled some hypnotic gas. Everyone was in a daze and could only vaguely perceive what was going to happen next.

Someone carried everyone out one by one, and the sea breeze gradually woke them up.

"It's Murasawa Shuichi! It must be Murasawa! I saw him grab Dr. Asai and leave the hall!" Shimizu Masato exclaimed in horror.

As he fell, he saw a hand reach out from around the corner and forcibly pull away the frail Dr. Asai. Judging from his clothes, it was Murasawa Shuichi!

"The murderer must be Murasawa Shuichi!"

Inspector Megure quickly made a judgment.

"That's right, Inspector Megure. This Murasawa Shuichi is Aso Keiji's adopted son. He returned to Tsukikage Island for revenge!"

After learning his identity, Kameyama Isamu suffered a heart attack from shock. The sheet music Conan and his friends found revealed his identity!

Conan now understood that the other party had obviously also discovered his exposure, and therefore decided to go all out.

"Damn it! Miyazaki Yu was saving us and didn't have time to chase after that guy. Now we don't know where he's gone. He even took Dr. Asai with him. What is he trying to do?"

"Oh no, he must have gone to the music room!"

At this moment, Conan was extremely anxious, as he had already made his final decision.

“Nishimoto Ken hasn’t shown up yet, so he’s probably already in his hands. He just deliberately hid to the side, trying to find out if Uncle Mori had discovered it was him. He prepared hypnotic gas beforehand. He’s a desperate man!”

But it was all too late. By the time everyone arrived, the music room was engulfed in flames. Standing outside the flames, they could still vaguely see the figure of Murasawa Shuichi, who was dancing wildly.

The other two figures were already lying on the ground, their fates unknown.

"That bastard, he's trying to take Mr. Nishimoto and Dr. Asai down with him!"

Xiaolan's heart clenched: "Dr. Honesty is still inside, what are we going to do?"

Seeing people being burned alive trembled in everyone's hearts; such a cruel event was most likely to stir people's emotions.

Conan was filled with excitement and wanted to rush into the sea of ​​fire to rescue the people, but just then, a large hand pressed down on his shoulder.

Turning around, I saw a calm face; it was Miyazaki Yu.

"This kind of thing is something only adults should do; children need to be protected."

With that, to everyone's astonishment, Miyazaki Yu suddenly rushed towards the sea of ​​fire!

Chapter 162 Cause and Effect

"Little Feather!"

Xiaolan was caught off guard by Miyazaki Yu's sudden attack. Although she knew his strength, she still couldn't help but worry.

"Watch out, Miyazaki!"

Seeing Miyazaki Yu's fearless actions, Inspector Megure sighed.

"This young man is still the same as before. He once risked his life to shield Eri from bullets, and now he will rush into a sea of ​​fire to save two strangers."

Such a passionate young man would never go astray; those people mentioned above were clearly overthinking things.

Thinking of his superior's instructions, Inspector Megure scoffed. Those guys didn't understand Miyazaki Yu, which was why they were so worried about him. Now it seemed that he was a heroic young man bursting with a sense of justice, and there was absolutely nothing to worry about.

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but worry. As the saying goes, water and fire are merciless.

No matter how powerful one is, one is still made of flesh and blood and is vulnerable to flames. Once trapped in a sea of ​​fire, there is no way to escape.

Just then, Miyazaki Yu suddenly had a bamboo sword in his hand. With a flash of the sword, the tightly closed door shattered, and a violent flame, like a volcanic eruption, instantly rose up!

"Oh no! The fire is too big!"

At this moment, Conan also showed an incredulous expression, and a smile appeared on his face.

"This guy is reliable when it really matters."

The flames rose and changed, engulfing the entire house. For a moment, those outside could no longer see what was happening inside. Little did they know, the room was now completely different.

"Let's begin!" Miyazaki Yu said with a faint smile.

The situation inside the room was completely different from what everyone outside had guessed. The so-called Murasawa Shuichi, who was acting arrogantly, took off his hat, revealing his true face, which turned out to be Asai Makoto.

Meanwhile, the figure who was believed to be Asai Makoto, who was bound to the ground, had also woken up, and a look of terror appeared on his face.

He tried hard to make a sound, but it felt like a sponge was stuck in his throat, preventing him from uttering a single word.

Ken Nishimoto was also standing nearby, his eyes filled with horror. At this moment, Miyazaki Yu's plan was fully revealed.

"Mr. Miyazaki's plan was indeed perfect. First, he took advantage of Ken Nishimoto's fear of my father's death to make him disappear from everyone's lives at any time without anyone noticing. Then, he used a musical score from more than ten years ago to lead Detective Mouri and that little detective astray."

The most exciting part is the final action: a desperate murderer captures his last enemy, intending to kill him secretly, but his plan is foiled. In a panic, he takes an innocent female doctor hostage into the fire, and in despair, decides to perish with them.

At this point, Asai Makoto's eyes also held a look of astonishment and admiration.

This person is frighteningly perceptive; he has a perfect grasp of people's hearts. Detectives are indeed more curious than ordinary people, but they also have their own weaknesses.
