After lying in bed for two days, Conan's back spine finally recovered completely. Although Xiaolan and Sonoko were surprised, Conan just smiled and explained that he was born with a good physique, so he recovered quickly. After Conan finally recovered, the group boarded the return flight, but Kogoro seemed particularly reluctant to leave, and even hugged the railing to show his firm determination. "A beautiful woman in a beautiful swimsuit! And delicious shochu! I don't want to leave yet! Let's stay for two more days!"

"No! Dad, you listen, we should go home!"

"I won't!!!"

Finally, under Conan's anesthetic injection, Xiaogoro was dragged onto the return flight by Xiaolan while he was sleeping soundly, and the matter came to an end.

Three days later

"Moon Shadow Island, this name is quite unique~"

"Indeed, it sounds like a good place to watch the moon."

Looking at the name introduced in the tourist atlas, Xiaolan sighed in a literary style, and Conan on the side also followed closely to echo.

But compared with the joy of Conan and Xiaolan, Kogoro stood at the bow with a bitter and vengeful expression and complained. "Really? He actually asked me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, to come to such a strange little place. What a strange client."

Xiaolan comforted: "What's wrong with that? It's just right to solve the commission while enjoying the local scenery. And didn't you accept the 500,000 yuan reward?"

Conan came to Kogoro and said with a cute expression: "By the way, uncle, can you show me the message sent by the client?"

"Take it, but be careful not to damage it."

Absent-minded Kogoro didn't say anything, and directly took out the message and handed it to Conan. The moment the message was in his hand, Conan couldn't wait to open it and read it.

[On the night of the next full moon on Tsukikage Island, shadows will begin to disappear again. Please investigate the reason. 】

Signature: Keiji Aso

The font on the message was cut from a newspaper, so it is impossible to infer the age, gender, and other information of the messager from the handwriting

Generally speaking, this method is only used for threatening letters or blackmail letters, because it can reduce clues. The other party actually left a message in this way, which is probably not a simple commission.

[Aso Keiji? I really want to know who you are. You actually commissioned your uncle in this way. 】

Thinking of this, Conan felt that the detective blood in his body began to boil, and the lens began to reflect. Xiaolan, who was standing next to him, saw this and shook her head helplessly.

"Really, Shinichi's detective disease has recurred. I really don't know when I can change this problem."

After about half an hour, the boat that Conan and his three companions took finally landed on Tsukikage Island, and Conan and his three companions went to the island's resident center to inquire about Keiji Aso, but they didn't expect to get an unexpected answer.

"What did you say! Keiji Aso died twelve years ago!"

The front desk staff said in panic: "Yes, Keiji Aso set fire to his home after killing his wife and daughter twelve years ago. In the end, he sat in the piano room and played "Moonlight" until he was completely engulfed by the fire..."

The clues stopped here, and Kogoro and his three companions sat on a bench in the park to sort out their thoughts.

"Damn it! How dare you tease me! Who on earth played this kind of prank!"

Looking at the message in his hand, Kogoro was so angry that he wanted to tear it up, but was stopped by Conan just before he started.

"Uncle, wait a minute, if this is just a prank, isn't that too unreasonable? After all, 500,000 is not a small amount."

Xiaolan also echoed: "Yes, Dad, maybe it was a friend of Mr. Aso Keiji who commissioned it, but couldn't show up for some reason."

After listening to the persuasion of the big and the small, Kogoro's expression suddenly became particularly strange: "Why are you two so in sync? Singing in unison as if you had discussed it beforehand."

"Hehe~"

Xiaolan and Conan looked at each other, and then smiled at the same time.

Kogoro...

[I don't know why,

I suddenly have the urge to strangle this kid? 】

Suppressing the inexplicable urge that suddenly rose in my heart, Conan and Kogoro held their chins and said slowly: "That makes sense, then let's walk around this island first and see if we can find any clues."

"Okay."

Conan and Xiaolan expressed their support for this, and then the three of them began to investigate on the island, and before they knew it, they came to the community center.

"Kuroda! You bastard!"

"Brothers, the situation is urgent now! Kill the village chief Kuroda!

"Kuroda! I * your ancestors! Give me a straight answer whether you agree or not!"

"Kuroda! I CNM! You are a stinky fisherman! When you were in school, you didn't even get a class leader. Why are you showing off here! ”

At this moment, there was a lot of noise outside the community center. Hundreds of villagers gathered together with banners to protest. The scene can be described as a scene of vitality, as if all things were competing.

Seeing this, Kogoro couldn't help but sigh in surprise: "Wow, it's quite lively here. Are there any activities with so many people?"

Conan showed his half-moon eyes and said helplessly: "I can tell at a glance that it is definitely not. What kind of activity would be so violent, and the curses are so ugly."

"It's really a bit unbearable to hear. Conan, you are not allowed to listen. If you learn bad things, it will be troublesome."

Xiaolan squatted down and covered Conan's ears. The serious and cute expression on her face made Conan laugh.

[I'm already a sophomore in high school, not a child, it's no big deal to listen to a few words.]

"CNM! I... um! "

At this time, a protesting old man suddenly looked very ugly, and the next moment he fell to the ground with his hands on his chest and fell unconscious.

"Someone fainted!"

"Help!"

Seeing the sudden situation, the enthusiastic people Conan and his three companions rushed to the old man and helped him up.

Kogoro said anxiously: "Old man, how are you? Do you have any medicine?"

However, when asked, the old man who fell into a coma did not respond at all, but his face became more and more ugly.

Seeing this, Kogoro hurriedly shouted to Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, call an ambulance! He seems to be dying!"

"Okay, I'll call now." Xiaolan hurriedly took out her mobile phone and prepared to call the emergency number.

"Don't bother, I'm a doctor."

"Huh?"

Hearing the sudden sound, Conan and his three companions subconsciously turned their heads and saw a young lady coming over.

"I knew this would happen, so I was prepared in advance. ”

Taking the old man from Kogoro, the young lady took out a bottle of medicine from her pocket, poured out two pills, and then put them into the old man's mouth for him to swallow.

After a while, the old man's face looked better.

Seeing this, the young lady ordered: "Please help carry him to the shade of the tree next to him. He has a history of heart disease and he got heatstroke because of the hot weather. He just needs to have a good rest."

"No problem, leave it to me."

Without saying a word, Kogoro carried the old man on his back and took him to the nearest shade of the tree to rest.

"That's great, I almost thought something was going to happen."

Xiaolan stroked her chest and took a long breath, then bowed to the young lady and thanked her: "Thank you for your help, otherwise we really don't know what to do."

The young lady smiled and said: "It's nothing, the doctor's duty is to treat patients, but judging from your accents, you should not be locals, right? ”

“Yes, we are from Kyoto. My name is Maori Ran, this is my father Maori Kogoro, and this child is Conan.”

Ran nodded and admitted this, and then began to introduce herself.

“So you are from Kyoto, what a coincidence, I was born in Kyoto, sorry I forgot to introduce myself.”

The young lady coughed lightly, and then formally began to introduce herself: “My name is Asai Chengshi, I am the only female doctor on this island, and I hope you can give me more advice.”

Kogoro smiled and nodded: “Hello, Dr. Chengshi, but what is going on here? Why are so many people gathered here?”

“Ah, this…”

Looking at the crowds outside the community center, Dr. Chengshi sighed helplessly, and then explained: “In a few days, the village head will be re-elected. The current village head Kuroda said that he would allow factories to discharge polluted water sources, so the villagers are very unwilling. They want to take advantage of this election to replace the village head Kuroda. It has been almost a week now. ”
