As soon as the word "music score" was spoken, not only Conan was surprised, but even the family members of the two candidates present and the head of Black Rock Village were shocked.
Not only that, there was a middle-aged man who looked frightened and kept backing away. Finally, when Kogoro Mori and Conan were studying the music score together, he turned around and ran away screaming.
It doesn't take too much profound psychology to tell that this gentleman must be full of fear. A passerby like this who is left alone at the beginning of the plot is very likely to be killed by the murderer. Bai Jingjiu deliberately wants Ant to follow him to have a look, but she does not have the authority to release Ant from the soul space... …
Even if there is, Baijiu hasn't woken up yet, so what if we know in time that someone has been killed? I can only see resentment wasted once again...
Why……
Heart hurts.
Seeing someone running out, considering that there were so many people here, Mouri Kogoro did not chase him out, but asked the village chief's secretary: "Who is that person?"
"It's Mr. Nishimoto." The village chief's secretary said dutifully. "I heard that he was not only a high-ranking and powerful person in the past, but also involved in everything from food, drink, prostitution, and gambling. But since Mr. Kameyama's death two years ago, he seems to have been What kind of frightened adult is hiding at home..."
Mouri Kogoro was speechless: "Ever since the incident two years ago..."
"Yeah..." The village chief's secretary turned to look at Black Rock Village Chief as if remembering something: "By the way, village chief, aren't you and Mr. Nishimoto childhood playmates?"
The village chief, who also had a look of fear on his face, but fortunately did not run away thinking about the situation like Nishimoto before, was greeted like this. He came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly: "Ah... yes..."
At this time, the messy sound of running came from far away, and finally Xiaolan gasped while holding her knees and said: "Dad, Dad! I brought Mr. Policeman!!"
"Why are you so slow..." Seeing his daughter gasping for breath, Mouri Kogoro simply didn't know what to say.
"Because the phone couldn't be connected, I had to go out and find the police on my own..." Xiaolan replied while panting, sweat dripping down. If it had been anyone else, I don’t know how long it would have been before the police came!
With the participation of the police, Maori Kogoro finally felt a little more relaxed. He began to talk to the old policeman who was also panting and sweating when Xiaolan pulled him over, and explained the whole incident to the old policeman in detail.
The old policeman looked shaky and about to fall ill at any moment. Although it seemed unreliable, he was still a policeman after all. After hearing about the incident, he immediately took out his walkie-talkie and summoned the young policemen from the local police station. Guard the scene, and then start to register the people on site, survey the site, take photos and keep certificates.
However, because the incident was too late and there were too many people, the interrogation could not be completed in a short time, so after a simple registration, Mouri Kogoro came forward to release everyone from the scene and told them to continue tomorrow.
"Since the murderer has not been arrested, everyone must be careful when going home to rest and be careful!!"
However, the people in the village who gave this kind warning just dealt with it perfunctorily and left. In their opinion, this matter is more of a supernatural case than a murder case. The murderer is probably Mr. Aso's soul!
Seeing those people talking about "Amitabha" and "Curse the Piano" leave, Kogoro Mori didn't want to catch up and say something. He had no choice but to ask his children to follow them, and left the community activity center to stay in a hotel.
But unexpectedly, after taking just two steps, he saw Dr. Asai in front of him, wearing a black skirt suit that almost blended into the night.
"Ah, Doctor Asai?" Xiaolan was a little surprised and said hello.
After being called, Asai Makoto turned around and saw Mouri Kogoro and his group, and smiled: "Are you familiar with the road to the hotel? Let's go together~"
It doesn't seem good to let Dr. Asai, a "girl", go home alone late at night, especially when there is a murder case. Mouri Kogoro left with Asai Makoto without thinking much.
Along the way, everyone forgot for the moment the weight of the dead they had just faced, talking and laughing. Doctor Asai looked at Conan who was following the adults silently and lowering his presence, and couldn't help but joked: "Conan, you The reasoning is really great!”
Conan:! !
Xiaolan:! !
Maori Kogoro:……!
Xiaolan quickly smiled: "Ah! This kid just loves to play detective games~"
"Really?" Dr. Asai praised sincerely, "But your reasoning is really convincing..."
Conan felt guilty and pretended to be naive: "This, this is all the result of being with my uncle every day~" Conan looked at Mouri Kogoro as if asking for help, "right?!"
Maori Kogoro:"……"
Mouri Kogoro laughed and said cheekily: "Oh! Compared to me, he is nothing! Hahaha!!!"
Conan: ...
Shiraijiu who was watching the show silently:...
If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?
Well, looking at Conan's appearance, it's impossible to change him. On the contrary, this Asai Makoto...
Shiraiji looked up at the handsome doctor: "Oh, Dr. Asai is very interested in Conan."
This seemed to be the first time Asai Makoto saw this little girl speaking actively when he saw these people. He was a little surprised, "Ah, it's Xiaojiu, right? This is because Conan's reasoning just now is really great..." "
Bai Jingjiu raised his head and stared at Asai Makoto for a while, then looked away, expressionlessly looking at the dark, deserted road ahead: "Ah, really, I thought you were testing something."
Conan: ...!
Xiaolan:......
I don’t know who Shuuko scared by saying this. Anyway, Mao Lilan, who knew the truth, and Conan, who knew the truth, both felt guilty at this moment.
Asai Makoto was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again, "Hahaha, how could it be possible~ Is Xiaojiu thinking this because he is jealous of Conan?"
Asai Makoto thought for a while and suddenly realized, "Ah, that's right. It seems that I have been praising Conan all the time tonight, and I haven't even noticed Xiaojiu~"
Asai Cheng smiled softly, half-bent down and rubbed Bai Jingjiu's smooth black hair: "Okay, okay, Xiaojiu is also very good tonight~"
Shiraijiu:......
Bai Jingjiu wanted to say something, but Xiaolan held her down and covered her mouth, "Ahaha... Well, it's too late, let's go back to the hotel first."
"Ah, okay."
Asai Makoto stood up straight and looked at Xiaolan pulling Shirai Jiu, wearing Conan, and beside Mouri Kogoro, the four of them walked forward slowly together, with a sad smile.
"I really hope you can solve the case as soon as possible..."
