The Advent of the Infinite King

Xie Chen frowned slightly. The letter clearly foretells the news that someone will die in Moon Shadow Island on the night of the full moon, but he didn't have time to stop it.

At this time, Hirata Kazuaki suddenly shouted in horror: "It's a curse! This is the curse of that piano!"

Mori Kogoro glanced at him, and said with some disdain: "What's the curse, it's not the piano that makes the sound."

He took out a small tape recorder from the piano stand, held it up to everyone and said, "It's this tape recorder." After pressing the pause button of the tape recorder, the piano music stopped playing.

"Based on what happened two years ago now, this is a planned killing."

"Kill... kill..."

"Hey." Murazawa said at this time on Monday: "Don't talk about some messy things, who are you!"

Mori Kogoro straightened his clothes, and then slowly said: "I am a famous detective from Tokyo, Mori Kogoro."

After hearing Kogoro Mori's name, the crowd started talking.

"Sky pilot."

"No, he often appears in mystery novels, right?"

"That man is wise."

"Then who is this man?"

Seeing that the people on the island had never heard of his name, Mori Kogoro looked disappointed, leaned his hands on the piano stand, and kept sighing.

Xie Chen shrugged. Speaking of which, he only solved three cases, and it is normal that he is not well known by everyone.

Afterwards, Xie Chen walked into the room, touched the water stains on the ground with his fingers, and smelled them with the tip of his nose.

"seawater……"

Just as the crowd was discussing, the autopsy of Asai Chengmi had been completed.

"It was thirty minutes to an hour ago." Asai Chengshi said to Mori Kogoro: "The cause of death was suffocation. I think Mr. Kawashima was drowned in the sea."

Kogoro Mori asked, "Did he die from drowning?"

"If I don't dissect it, I can't make a conclusion."

Xie Chen said suddenly at this moment: "I think what Dr. Cheng Shi said is correct. You see, the coat on the beach outside must belong to that Mr. Kawashima."

Mori Kogoro went to the window to check, and there was indeed a black coat on the beach outside.

Xie Chen walked to the back door and continued: "From that door to the piano, there are also traces of being dragged from the sea, and there are mud and sand on Mr. Kawashima's back."

"Judging from the fact that the door or the windows of the room are all locked." Xie Chen immediately pressed the play button of the recorder, "The first few minutes of the tape should be blank."

"This...this guy...when will he..." Mouri Kogoro shook the corners of his mouth.

"I'm afraid the prisoner took Mr. Kawashima to the seaside to drown him during the funeral, and then carried the body to this room, then locked it, pressed the switch of the tape recorder, and walked out of the room to the corridor, isn't it, uncle."

Mori Kogoro was taken aback for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "That's right, that's right."

Suddenly realizing his embarrassment, he coughed lightly.

"If the door of this room is locked..."

Mori Kogoro coughed lightly, and then said: "Because we stayed at the entrance just now, so according to my judgment, the possibility of the prisoner returning to the ceremony venue is quite high."

"Wait a minute!" Lingzi Heiyan suddenly said loudly, "You mean the prisoner is still among us?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became dignified, and the expressions on everyone's faces were different.

"That's right." Mori Kogoro said, "The prisoner is here. Did anyone see Mr. Kawashima leaving his place in the middle of the ceremony?"

Heiyan Tatsuji said: "I know about this, I'm sure he meant to go to the toilet."

Mori Kogoro then asked: "Is there anyone else who has seen anyone leave the seat?"

Murasawa twitched his lips and said, "How could I remember all of that kind of thing?"

"Well, what if Mr. Kawashima offended someone?"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji said: "It's not offending, but after the death of Mr. Kawashima, the happiest person is Mr. Shimizu, who is a candidate for the village chief election like him."

Qing Shuizheng immediately said: "What did you say? Then you are the same, Village Chief Heiyan!"

"Yeah, that's right." Reiko Kuroiwa folded his arms and said, "If someone didn't arrange Mr. Kawashima's ticket source as his own ticket source, then my father would have been elected."

"what?"

"Okay, okay." In order to keep the quarrel from going on, Mori Kogoro had no choice but to walk over to smooth things over, "Calm down, everyone."

At this time, Xie Chen suddenly said: "But why did the prisoner move the corpse to this room?"

Mori Kogoro said: "That's because he wanted to attribute this murder to the curse of the piano. By the way, when did this piano start here?"

"It was donated by Mr. Aso [-] years ago, and it has been here ever since," said Kazuaki Hirata.

"Is that Mr. Aso?"

"Yes, his name is engraved on the cover of the keyboard."

Mori Kogoro opened the lid of the piano, and there was a sheet of music under the lid.
