Chapter 97: The Beach on a Moonlit Night

April 3rd, Wednesday, the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, early morning.

The Mumu Police Department and his subordinates finally failed to land on Yueying Island on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar.

After the Meguro Police Department and the others went to the island, Yamazaki and Conan handed over the tapes and music scores to the Megure Police Department, and then took them to the place where Mr. Kawashima was found while narrating the incident.

Looking at the large footprints by the sea, Mumu Police Department asked with a headache, "What's going on? These are not your footprints, are they?"

"That's what we left when we were looking for things that might be washed up on the beach," Yamazaki said with a smile, "We didn't trample on the scene here, you see..." He pointed at the scratched thing on the beach A big arc, and continued, "There are only footprints in it when we rescued people for the first time, and we didn't go in again."

Then pointing to a plastic bag stuck on the reef, Yamazaki said again, "We only found this plastic bag with some sand stuck on it, presumably it was put on the prisoner's hand to erase his footprints on the beach .By the way, there are traces of adhesive tape on it, which should be the adhesive tape used to bind Mr. Kawashima. Uncle Mori believes that the sharp weapon used by the prisoner and the drug used to bring down Mr. Kawashima, the drug used later or Syringes, it's all in there."

The Mumu Police Department immediately ordered: "Check this plastic bag."

Yamazaki pointed at the scene again and said, "The prisoner was very careful. He erased a whole layer, and all the inside of the arc was wiped."

Squatting on the seawall, Mumu Police Department said: "It is indeed a little lower than the one next to it."

"It's all thanks to Uncle Mori." Looking at Conan, Yamazaki said with a smile, "He found it while lying on the beach and searching inch by inch."

"Oh," Megure Police Department said, "so I fell asleep from exhaustion."

"Lan and Dr. Chengshi are still awake," Yamazaki said, "Do you want to record a statement for them first?"

Shaking his hand, Mumu Police Department said: "It's too late now, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay," said Yamazaki, "then we'll go to rest."...

At noon, public hall, piano room.

"Ah..." Sitting up and yawning, Maori said, "Lan... Hey, where is he? Huh? This is..."

Mao Li looked around, except for the sleeping policeman not far away, no one else was there. Then he saw a note next to him, which said: Dad, we are going to the hotel. When you wake up, go to the village office, the Megure Police Department is there. The inscription is Lan.

After shaking the policeman awake, Mao Li hurried to the village office after explaining to him. In the end, except for Yamazaki, no one else came. After asking, I found out that because neither Lan nor Dr. Chengshi woke up, Conan stayed there and waited.

In the afternoon, just before four o'clock, Lan and Dr. Chengshi yawned all the way to the village office as if they were not awake, and then sat down on a bench not far from the door. Maoli, who was sitting on a bench next to Yamazaki, looked at Dr. Chengshi, Lan and Conan who were sitting together, and couldn't help but walked over and asked, "Lan, didn't you sleep in a hotel? What's wrong with this?" What does it look like?"

"Well," Lan said embarrassingly, "we couldn't fall asleep after taking a shower, and after chatting and falling asleep, we had nightmares again, so..."

"Nightmare?" Molly asked back.

"That's it, Mr. Kawashima," Lan replied with some fear, "I feel like him, covered in blood,

It's dripping out drop by drop, I can't stop it..."

"That's right," Doctor Cheng Shi echoed, "Although I'm a medical student, I came to the island after graduation. I haven't seen it before. It's really..."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this," Lan stopped, and then asked, "Dad, what's the matter, do you know who the murderer is?"

Mao Li said: "Don't be stupid, how could it be so easy to find out so many people who came to participate in the ceremony."

"By the way," Conan asked, "How many people are left to ask?"

"Well, that includes Dr. Naruto," Mori said, looking at the other side of the hall, "the ones there, that Ken Nishimoto, the village head's daughter Reiko Kuroiwa, her fiancé Murasawa Monday, candidate Shimizu Masato , the secretary of the village chief, Hirata Kazuaki. The village chief is currently being questioned, these seven people.”

At this time, the head of Heiyan village came out from the questioning place. After he came out, he immediately walked up to Mr. Hirata and shouted: "You idiot, what cursed piano, it's because of that thing that things like this keep happening of."

Mr. Hirata said: "But, but, the village chief..."

Village Chief Heiyan said: "Get rid of it right away, do you know, Hirata." After speaking, he left the hall.

"Yes, the village chief." Mr. Hirata replied with his head bowed.

At this time, Ken Nishimoto entered the questioning place, and Dr. Cheng Shi asked, "Mr. Maori, according to what you just said, isn't my order..."

Mao Li said: "Yes, because you came too late, you will be at the end of the queue."

"Okay then, I'll go to the bathroom first." With that said, Dr. Cheng Shi left.

Not long after, Maori entered the questioning place, and then came out after a while, and sat down next to Yamazaki again, Maori said: "That guy is quite time-consuming, no matter what I ask him, he just keeps silent. My instinct is that this is the murderer." guy."

"Uncle Mori," Yamazaki laughed, "we'll find him."

At 4:20, Ken Nishimoto, who had been grinding for almost 20 minutes, finally came out, and then Miss Lingzi went in, and Mao Li went in to inquire, but Ken Nishimoto still didn't say anything, so he could only skip him first.

At 4:35, listening to Miss Lingzi yelling inside, "Can't you stop it, I can't possibly have the motive to kill Mr. Kawashima, it's too much", Lan couldn't help feeling: "Miss Lingzi is so powerful, she has been yelling for more than ten minutes."

Dr. Cheng Shi, who came back about twenty minutes ago, echoed, "You are so energetic."

At five o'clock, Conan noticed that Mr. Nishimoto, who had been sitting all this time, suddenly stood up, walked into the hall, and followed him out of curiosity.

This is a passage leading to the second floor, next to the men's and women's toilets. When I went to the bathroom, I saw that Mr. Murasawa was walking out, and Mr. Shimizu was washing his hands, but Mr. Nishimoto was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Conan immediately asked, "Strange, didn't Mr. Nishimoto come just now?"

Mr. Murasawa shook his head, and Mr. Shimizu replied: "No."

Oops, Conan realized it was not good, and immediately ran along the passage to the second floor.

At this time, the village head of Heiyan yelled full of fear from the second floor, "No, ah..." At the same time, a piece of music sounded in the village office, it was the cursed moonlight song.

When Conan rushed to the second floor, Nishimoto Ken was standing in front of a room whose door was opened, holding the doorknob with his hands, and looking inside tremblingly. ...
