Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 37: The ritual is quite professional, let’s go through it together



In a corner of the ritual site.

Kuroiwa Tatsuji is doubting Nishimoto Ken.

Because since the death of the former village chief Kameyama Isamu three years ago, Nishimoto Ken has been staying at home all day long, thinking that Keiji Aso is still alive and will definitely seek revenge on him.

Therefore, Kuroiwa Tatsuji believes that the sudden sound of "Moonlight" piano in the piano room of the public hall is caused by Ken Nishimoto.

Ken Nishimoto denied it, saying he didn't know what was going on.

The two did not know that Hideo Kawashima was dead.

"Now go to the piano room to see what's going on. Don't let me know who is responsible, otherwise I will make him pay the price!" Kuroiwa Tatsuji said fiercely.

"There's no need to go. The rituals here look quite professional. They just saved the three of you..."

"who!"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken looked at the direction of the sound at the same time.

But all he saw was a pair of gloved hands suddenly stretched out from the darkness, and one hand grabbed a neck.

However, Kuroiwa Tatsuji's neck was a bit thick, and Kamiya Minatsuki's gloved hands were a bit slippery, so he almost missed it at first.

And Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken finally saw Kamiya Minazuki clearly in the darkness.

Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken struggled to use their hands to break open the hand of Kamiya Minatsuki that was holding their necks.

But Kamiya Minayuki's hands were like steel and couldn't be broken open at all.

And because their necks were strangled, they couldn't shout loudly for help.

Kamiya Minazuki said with a smile: "Kawashima Hideo is already waiting for you below. I will send you down to reunite. Don't do bad things in the next life."

Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken were horrified when they heard Kamiya Minatsuki's words. They did not expect that Kawashima Hideo was already dead.

There was a heartbreaking sound of fracture, and the neck of the thinnest Ken Nishimoto was cut off by Kamiya Minatsuki, and he lost his life.

However, Kuroiwa Tatsuji's neck is too thick, and it's really hard for Kamiya Minatsuki to operate with one hand.

After Kamiya Minatsuki let go of Ken Nishimoto's body, he complained to Kuroiwa Tatsuji: "Why do you eat like a pig? Even your neck is almost gone. You really have two shoulders carrying a tumor, and you have no brain. pus."

Kuroiwa Tatsuji tried his best to beg for mercy, but Kamiya Minazuki didn't give him a chance at all, and put his left hand on Kuroiwa Tatsuji's bald head.

"Bye bye."

Under the horrified gaze of Kuroiwa Tatsuji, the heartbreaking sound of fractures sounded again.

Kamiya Mingetsu directly broke Kuroiwa Tatsuji's neck.

Next to Ken Nishimoto's body, there was another body.

After killing three people in one night, Kamiya Minatsuki's expression did not change at all. He still had a smile on his face, relaxed and indifferent.

As a member of the black organization, Minatani Kamiya, killing people is as common as eating and drinking.

For life, Kamiya Minazuki has lost his respect for life, or has become numb.

"Get to work."

While everyone's eyes were focused on Hideo Kawashima's body in the piano room, Kamiya Minazuki slipped out of the public hall, went to the hotel on Moon Shadow Island, got a room, took a shower and rested.

And inside the public hall.

Another burst of screams sounded.

The bodies of Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Ken Nishimoto were found.

Asai Narumi was completely confused when she saw the bodies of Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken.

Now Asai Narumi's mind is filled with many questions.

Where am I? What am I doing? What should I do next?

My revenge plan is over before it even begins?

You're not dreaming, are you?

Asai Narumi slapped herself hard in the face.

"Ugh, it hurts..."

Mao Lilan was shocked when Asai Narumi slapped herself: "Dr. Narumi, what are you doing?"

Asai Narumi covered her face and explained: "Nothing? I just thought I was dreaming. This is really unbelievable. Three people died all at once."

Mouri Kogoro had an angry look on his face: "Damn it, you dare to commit a crime under the nose of my famous detective Moori Kogoro! I must find the culprit!"

In addition to Asai Narumi being messy, Conan, who was standing next to Mao Lilan, was also completely messy, touching his chin and thinking.

They had been guarding the entrance and no one had come out, so the prisoner must be one of the people here.

But when the piano sounded just now, except for Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken, almost everyone rushed to the piano room immediately.

So how did the prisoner kill two men, Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken, at the same time?

The next day the next day.

Officer Megure and other police officers arrived at Moon Shadow Island.

Because Tsukikage Island falls under the jurisdiction of Tokyo, Police Officer Megure from the Criminal Department rushed to Tsukikage Island.

After Kamiya Minatsuki bought breakfast on Moon Shadow Island, he slowly came to the public hall.

At this time, the public hall was full of police.

At this time, Mao Lilan walked out of the public hall.

Now, Minaya Kamiya, who is a melon-eater, stopped Mao Lilan and asked: "Hey, Xiaolan, what happened here? Why are so many police here?"

Mao Lilan said with a worried look: "Shortly after Mr. Kamiya left yesterday, a murder occurred in the public hall. Three people died at once."

Kamiya Minatsuki took a bite of the sandwich in his hand and asked, "Oh? It's so serious. How is it now? Has the prisoner been found?"

Mao Lilan shook his head: "Not yet, but the scope has been narrowed. One of the three deceased was strangled to death by a rope such as fishing line or piano wire, and the other two were strangled. The fact that the neck is dead indicates that the prisoner is male and has a strong physique.”

"Hey, it seems that the case can be solved immediately, congratulations." Kamiya Mingyue congratulated Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan sighed: "I hope so. Mr. Kamiya, I'm leaving first. Everyone hasn't eaten anything all night. I'm going to buy some food."

"Okay, bye Xiaolan." Kamiya Mingyue waved goodbye to Xiaolan.

Kamiya Minayuki was not in a hurry to leave Moon Shadow Island, but planned to see if the police would classify this case as an unsolved case or an unjust case.

And the other side.

Although the scope of the criminals has been narrowed down, there is still no clue.

Because the various evidences don’t match up.

When Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken died, everyone said that they were already at the door of the piano room, and everyone testified against each other.

Moreover, there are no fingerprints on the pinch marks on the necks of Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken. It is impossible to rely on fingerprints to find the prisoner.

Just when everyone had no clue, Conan believed that these murders must be related to the dead Keiji Aso.

Because the murder notice letter was signed by Keiji Aso.

And the piano piece "Moonlight" played in the piano room was the last piece Keiji Aso played before his death.

Since Keiji Aso is dead, the letter must have been sent by someone close to Keiji Aso.

During the investigation, Conan, thanks to his short stature, discovered a hidden compartment under the piano in the piano room with residual flour powder inside.

At this time, the old policeman from Yueying Island Police Station told an important piece of information.

At the scene of Keiji Aso's fire, everything was burned down, except for the music scores placed in the fireproof safe.
