???

Maori Kogoro's pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't help but shout, "What did you say?! He's dead?"

"Yes, Keiji Aso was born on the island and was a famous pianist in the past."

The middle-aged man said with a look of nostalgia on his face, "Twelve years ago, it was a full moon night. After many years, he returned to his hometown and held a piano concert in the village's community center.

But after the piano concert, he seemed to be possessed. He locked himself and his family in the house and even set fire to it.

It is said that he killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and in the blazing flames, he continued to play the piano, which was Beethoven's piano sonata - Moonlight! "

"Gudong!"

Upon hearing this, Maori Ran subconsciously grabbed Maori Kogoro's arm and swallowed nervously.

After listening to the middle-aged man's story, Kogoro Maori's face changed, and he left the village committee hall with Bailijing.

Looking at the strange letter of commission, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but complain: "A letter of commission sent in the name of the dead? What a bad prank!"

"I don't think so, because the other party has already paid the commission to uncle, so no one would use 500,000 yen to play a prank, right?"

Conan shook his head and said, "I think someone on the island wants to use this method to ask uncle to help investigate the matter of Aso Keiji?"

"Yes! Dad, maybe the client is a good friend of Aso Keiji. We can go to the village chief and ask him. Maybe we can get some useful clues."

Hearing what Mao Lilan said, Mao Li Kogoro nodded slightly and said: "Well! Since we are here, let's investigate it carefully!"

Since Baili Jing and his friends were visiting Yueying Island for the first time and didn't know where the village chief's home was, they went to ask the residents on the island.

"that……"

Looking at the beautiful woman in a white coat not far away, Mao Lilan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, where is the village chief's home?"

"Are you looking for the village chief? Turn right from the corner in front and go straight ahead. That's the village chief's house."

After the beautiful lady in the white coat showed Baili Jing and the others the way, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Are you from Tokyo?"

"Yes! We came here on the same boat as before."

“I was also born in Tokyo!”

The beautiful woman in the white coat opened her arms and said with a look of enjoyment: "But Yueying Island is different from big cities like Tokyo. The air is so fresh and it is very quiet."

"Shimizu! Shimizu Masato! Please vote for Shimizu Masato..."

As soon as the beautiful woman in the white coat finished speaking, a van with a large loudspeaker drove past Baili Jing and the others.

It was a slap in the face at the speed of light!

"..."

The corners of Baili Jing's mouth twitched, and he forced himself to suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to curl up.

Chapter 23: The Evil Ghost Demands Life

"Uh……"

The beautiful woman in the white coat smiled awkwardly and quickly explained, "What happened just now was a special case! Because the island is going to hold a village chief election, the candidates for village chief are busy canvassing for votes!"

"Village head election?"

"There are three candidates for village chief. They are Mr. Shimizu, the fishermen representative, Mr. Kuroiwa, the current village chief whose evaluation has recently been lowered, and Mr. Kawashima, the largest capitalist on the island."

The beautiful lady in the white coat touched her chin and said, "But judging from the recent chats among the patients, most of the residents on the island still support Mr. Kawashima..."

"Okay, okay, Miss Nurse, we have no interest in the village chief election."

Looking at the beautiful woman in the white coat who was talking nonstop, Kogoro Mouri quickly interrupted her.

“I’m not a nurse~”

The beautiful lady in the white coat smiled and said, "My name is Asai Chengmi, I am a doctor on this island, and I have a formal medical license~"

"So you are the doctor on the island. You are really young and promising!"

"You are too kind."

Looking at Asai Narimi who was talking and laughing with Maori Kogoro, Bailijing's eyes became a little strange.

Because the murder case on Moon Shadow Island is very classic, and Conan even called it "a regret that cannot be forgotten in a lifetime", Baili Jing was deeply impressed by this plot.

The beautiful doctor with a ponytail in front of you is actually a crossdresser. His real identity is Keiji Aso’s son - Aso Minoru!

Aso Shigenori had been weak and sickly since childhood. When Keiji Aso brought his wife and daughter back to Tsukikage Island to hold a piano concert, he happened to be hospitalized due to illness and was temporarily kept in a hospital in Tokyo. He luckily escaped the disaster.

Asami has always been suspicious about her father's death, so after graduating from medical school, she returned to Yueying Island as a female doctor and secretly investigated the truth of the matter.

It was not until three years ago that the then village chief Kameyama Isamu learned of Asanari's true identity and mistakenly believed that he was out for revenge, and in a panic he revealed the truth.

It turned out that it was Kameyama Isamu, together with Kawashima Hideo, Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken, who threatened Aso Keiji to help them smuggle drugs, but failed, so they killed Aso Keiji's wife and daughter and disguised it as self-immolation.

Because of extreme fear, Kameyama Isamu suffered a relapse of heart disease and eventually died of heart failure.

After learning the truth, Masashi played "Moonlight" as a requiem for Kameyama Isamu, and began to develop the intention of revenge.

However, as a doctor, Masashi is kind-hearted and has never made up his mind to kill for revenge, otherwise he would not have taken three years to take revenge.

The letter of commission that Asami sent to Kogoro Mori in the name of his father was not intended to provoke him, but subconsciously hoped that he could stop him from killing.

Although Baili Jing is not a good person, he doesn't mind helping Masashi Minoru, which makes up for the frustration he felt when watching the anime.

While Kogoro Mori and the others went to see the village chief to find out about Keiji Aso, Baili Jing privately found Aso Shigeji, revealed his true identity straight away, and then helped him develop a new revenge plan.

……

The night is like water and the mist is like gauze.

Since today is the third anniversary of the death of the previous village chief, and it is also the time for an election for a new village chief, the residents of Yueying Island specially held a ceremony in his honor at the island’s community center.

"Dong dong dong..."

In the lobby of the community center, a monk in a khaki robe was chanting Buddhist scriptures while beating a wooden fish.

Kuroiwa Tatsuji, who was wearing a black suit and had a big bald head, whispered to Kawashima Hideo who was kneeling next to him: "Kawashima, you didn't hire that detective outside in the name of Aso Keiji because you wanted to spy on my inner thoughts, right?"

"How could I possibly do something like that?"

Upon hearing this, Kawashima Hideo gave Kuroiwa Tatsuji a displeased look, then stood up and left the hall.

"Kawashima, you're not going to run away because I made you feel guilty, are you?"

"I need to go to the bathroom!"

Looking at Kawashima Hideo's departing back, Kuroiwa Tatsuji's face became increasingly uglier.

If it really wasn't Kawashima Hideo who did it, then who would have lured Mori Kogoro to Tsukikage Island in the name of Keiji Aso?

"Clap clap clap..."

At the same time, Maori Kogoro, who was sitting outside the entrance, was slapping mosquitoes with a complaining look on his face: "That stinky boy Jing is too cunning. He and Arnold went back to rest first, leaving the three of us here to feed mosquitoes."

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

Mao Lilan heard this and spread her hands helplessly, "After all, the commission you earn from Dad will not be spent on Baili classmate~"

If it weren't for the pocket money of Mouri Ran and the hope of getting it from Mouri Kogoro's commission fee, she would definitely have taken Conan back to rest.

"wait wait wait……"

A low piano sound suddenly rang out, slowly echoing in the silent night, exuding a strange and eerie atmosphere.

"what!!!"

Before Conan and the others could react, a shrill scream suddenly rang out, completely breaking the silence of the night.

Upon hearing this, Conan and Maori Kogoro jumped up at the same time and ran towards the direction where the scream came from.

“Ghost…ghost…there is a ghost!”

When Conan and his friends arrived at the entrance corridor, they saw Kawashima Hideo crawling towards them with a look of fear on his face, his pants were wet.

The residents, led by Kuroiwa Tatsuji, were also alarmed by Kawashima Hideo's screams and came out of the hall one after another.

"Kawashima, what are you doing? You've made the rituals…"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji had just said half of his words when his pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something horrible, and his legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

I saw an unidentified creature with a charred body, slowly crawling from the end of the corridor in an extremely twisted manner.

"Kuroiwa Tatsuji, Kawashima Hideo, Nishimoto Ken, I am in so much pain! Why are you still at large? You have prevented me from reincarnating and I have to suffer the pain of being burned by fire every day. I want you to accompany me..."

The unidentified creature slowly raised its head, revealing a horrific burned face. It stared at Kuroiwa Tatsuji and the others with its blood-red eyes. Its eyes were full of resentment and its hoarse voice was like the howling of a devil.

"Ding! Arouse the resentment of Mao Lilan and gain 89 villain points."

"Ding! Arouse the resentment of Edogawa Conan and gain 64 villain points."

"Ding! Arouse the resentment of Maori Kogoro and gain 72 villain points."

"Ding! Arouse the resentment of Kuroiwa Tatsuji and gain 95 villain points."

"Ding……"

Chapter 24: Don’t do bad things, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door

The unidentified object crawling on the ground in front of him was Baili Jing in disguise.

In order to play the role of a burnt ghost, Baili Jing not only used special effects makeup techniques, but also used the "Art of Disguise" to adjust the proportions of his limbs.

Baili Jing deliberately lengthened the bones of his left arm and right leg, making them appear thin and long, making the whole person look extremely deformed.

Not to mention Ran Mouri, who is afraid of ghosts, even Conan and Kogoro Mouri felt their scalps tingling when they saw this scene.

Kuroiwa Tatsuji and his companions, who were feeling guilty, were so frightened that their faces turned pale, their legs went weak, and they couldn't even run away.

"It's Keiji Aso! It's Keiji Aso! He's back for revenge, he's back for revenge, hahahaha..."

Looking at the charred ghost approaching and the piano sound echoing in his ears, Ken Nishimoto was almost scared to death. He collapsed on the ground and laughed incoherently.

"Snapped!"

Just when Kawashima Hideo was about to escape into the hall, Baili Jing suddenly grabbed his ankle, pulled him to the ground, and then put the severely disfigured face in front of him.

Smelling the smell of burnt meat emanating from Baili Jing's body, Kawashima Hideo felt terrified and nauseous, and wished he could faint on the spot.

Baili Jing stared at Kawashima Hideo's eyes with an extremely resentful look, and roared in a hoarse and unpleasant voice: "Kawashima... Kawashima Hideo, I want you to come down and accompany me..."

"It's none of my business. It's really none of my business!"

Kawashima Hideo, who was already frightened, said without thinking, "Your wife and daughter were killed by Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken, and the fire was set by Kameda Isamu. It really has nothing to do with me..."

"You fart!"

Upon hearing this, Kuroiwa Tatsuji could not help but curse: "Kawashima Hideo, are you still a human being? It was you who came up with the idea of ​​blackmailing Aso Keiji and smuggling drugs for us!"

After hearing the shocking revelations from Kuroiwa Tatsuji and the others, everyone present showed expressions of shock, and at the same time couldn't help but complain in their hearts.

It was all because of Tatsuji Kuroiwa and his gang's inaction that killed Keiji Aso's entire family, which led to Keiji Aso's lingering resentment, and he was cursed by the piano and had evil spirits come to demand his life.

At this time, everyone just hopes that Keiji Aso will take revenge if he has any grievances, and not hurt innocent people.

Just when Kuroiwa Tatsuji and the others revealed the truth about Aso Keiji's death, the low piano sound stopped abruptly, and Aso Minoru, wearing a white coat, walked out of the piano room.

Amid the shocked gazes of the crowd, Ma Cheng Shi suddenly bowed to Bai Li Jing: "Thank you so much, Mr. Bai Li!"

"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."

Before everyone could figure out the situation, Baili Jing let go of Kawashima Hideo, stretched his muscles, restored the stretched bones to their original state, and stood up from the ground.

"Bah bah bah..."

Baili Jing first spat out the black charred residue in his mouth, then tore off the human skin mask on his face, revealing his sunny and handsome face.

“This…what on earth is going on?”

When Kogoro Maori saw this, he was confused for a moment, and then he couldn't help but ask the question that was on everyone's mind.

Baili Jing explained with a smile: "In fact, the whole thing is not complicated. When I was investigating Mr. Aso Keiji's intelligence, I accidentally learned that he had a son named Cheng Shi, and that person was Dr. Cheng Shi who was dressed as a woman."

"A man...a man dressed as a woman?!"

Kogoro Mouri's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Asanari Minoru with disbelief.

Faced with everyone's curious and shocked gazes, Ma Cheng Shi smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
