At this moment, in a room in the public hall, the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji, who has a big head, a thick neck, no hair on his head, and a strong and short body, is talking to the entrepreneur on the island, a tall man with a long face and two ponytails. Kawashima Hideo, who had a mustache, was quarreling with each other, and the two were sarcastic.
Behind Kuroiwa Tatsuji, there is a young red-haired woman. This woman is Kuroiwa Tatsuji's daughter, Kuroiwa Reiko. Kuroiwa Reiko is complaining about her father and accusing Kawashima Hideo of his dirty tricks.
"Monday, say something too!" Kuroiwa Reiko looked at her fiancé Murasawa Monday.
Murasawa was a dark man wearing a brown felt hat and sunglasses on Monday. He did not help to speak, but said bluntly: "If your father is really loved by others, then this guy's methods will not be effective."
"Why are you like this!" Black Rock Lingzi stared at him dissatisfied.
At this moment, Hirata Kazaki, the secretary of the village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji, rushed in rashly and shouted: "Village Chief, there is someone outside who wants to see you!"
Kuroiwa Tatsuji asked impatiently: "It's already this time, who else will come to me?"
"It's the detective from Togen, the famous Mouri Kogoro!" Hirata Kazaki said loudly.
"What!" The expressions of Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Kawashima Hideo changed instantly. They looked at each other and saw a strange light in each other's eyes.
Kuroiwa Tatsuji hesitated for a moment, then asked his secretary to invite Mouri Kogoro in. He wanted to hear the purpose of the Toga detective.
I hope it's not what he thinks, otherwise it will be troublesome.
When Maori and his party entered the room, they felt the atmosphere was a little tense.
After introducing himself, Mouri Kogoro stopped beating around the bush and asked directly: "Excuse me, village chief, how much do you know about Aso Keiji?"
"What? Keiji Aso!" Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Kawashima Hideo screamed in unison.
Secretary Hirata Kazaki was so frightened that he took a few steps back, looking panicked.
"No, why are the people on the island so afraid of Keiji Aso?" Hoshino Sora looked confused.
Just because of the curse? It can only be attributed to the curse. After all, the people on the island believe in theology more than science.
"It's like this. Someone on the island sent me a letter of entrustment, asking me to investigate Keiji Aso, so I wanted to ask the village chief for advice." Mouri Kogoro explained.
But after hearing his explanation, Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Kawashima Hideo became even more uneasy. They looked at each other, and then Kuroiwa Tatsuji excused everything and waited until after the ritual on the grounds that the ritual was about to begin.
As a result, the four Maori people were invited out.
"My intuition tells me that these two people must be hiding something." Hoshino Sora said with certainty.
Mouri Kogoro curled his lips, "As you can tell, anyone with a discerning eye can see it."
Conan held his chin with his right hand, thinking about the expressions of the village chief and the entrepreneur just now. The shock was different from the shock of other people at the household registration office.
I can’t tell you exactly, but I just have this intuition.
After being invited out of the room, they walked in the corridor of the public hall and met Asai Narumi and another middle-aged man with an upright look.
According to Asai Narumi, everyone knows that this middle-aged man is the representative of the fishermen and the candidate for the village chief, Masato Shimizu.
Seeing that Masato Shimizu was similar in age to the village chief, Conan took the opportunity to ask, "Does Mr. Shimizu know Keiji Aso?"
Mouri Kogoro punched Conan hard on the head, and then apologized to Shimizu Masato, "I'm sorry, this kid is neither big nor small, but I also want to ask, do you know Aso Keiji?"
Masato Shimizu was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said: "Of course I know, I heard him play the piano back then. But speaking of understanding, the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji, entrepreneurs Kawashima Hideo, Nishimoto Ken, As well as the deceased former village chief Mr. Kameyama, they all know Aso Keiji very well, because the four of them and Aso Keiji have played together since childhood."
"Childhood sweetheart!" Hoshino Sora shouted.
Everyone: "..."
Xiaolan said with shame: "Akong, this idiom cannot be used here. It is used to describe boys and girls growing up together."
"Oh, then we are childhood sweethearts." Hoshino Sora suddenly realized.
"Ah, this..." Xiaolan didn't know how to explain it, because she always felt that she and Shinichi were childhood sweethearts. As for Kong and Sonoko, what idiom should be used to describe this?
Mouri Kogoro rolled his eyes and brought the topic back, "So the village chief has a very good relationship with Aso Keiji, but why is he unwilling to talk to me about Aso Keiji?"
Asai Narumi clenched his fists involuntarily, a flash of sadness and hatred flashed in his eyes.
Hoshino Sora suddenly turned his head and looked at Asai Narumi. That flash of killing intent just now... There is something wrong with this woman!
"Maybe it's because I'm afraid of the curse." Masato Shimizu thought for a while and said, "After all, it's rumored that Aso Keiji was infected with some kind of curse, so everyone is more shy about it. Oh, by the way, there is still Aso Keiji's piano in the public hall. , but because of the taboo, no one will touch it.”
"Oh, in that case, I would like to take a look. Where is the piano now?" Mouri Kogoro thought this was a clue and asked quickly.
Masato Qingshui nodded, "I'll take you there."
While talking, everyone came to the room where the piano was placed. Then, I saw a dusty piano sitting quietly in a huge room. Apart from the piano, there was only one stool in the room.
"This piano is so dusty. It's such a pity that such an expensive piano is allowed to gather dust like this." As a person who loves music, Xiaolan was heartbroken when she saw this.
Asai Narumi agreed: "Yes, they don't understand maintenance at all."
Just when Xiaolan was about to open the piano cover, the village chief's secretary Kazaki Hirata rushed in and exclaimed: "Don't touch it! This is the piano Mr. Aso played on the day he died. It is a cursed piano!"
Then he told a strange and bizarre experience. On the night of the full moon two years ago, the former village chief Mr. Kameyama had a heart attack and collapsed in front of the piano. But strangely, after Mr. Kameyama died, At that time, there was a piano music playing all the time. It was the piano sonata "Moonlight" that played when Mr. Aso died.
When Xiaolan heard this, she felt horrified and quickly stayed away from the piano.
Conan, on the other hand, was not afraid at all after hearing this. He directly lifted the piano cover and pressed randomly on the piano keys.
"This tone..."
Conan was keenly aware that the piano had been tuned.
"Ah!" Hirata and Ming were shocked, and quickly asked everyone out of the room, not allowing them to go in again.
"What a timid guy." Mouri Kogoro said disdainfully.
"Mr. Mori, the religious ceremony is about to begin, so I'll excuse myself first." Masato Shimizu said and left.
Asai Narumi also said goodbye and left, Hoshino Sora quickly followed.
