Chapter 98 Music Score on a Moonlit Night

Wednesday, April 3rd, the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, in the evening.

At five o'clock, Conan found that Ken Nishimoto had left suddenly, and followed him out of curiosity. However, before reaching the second floor, the village head of Heiyan screamed, and at the same time, the moonlight song was played on Moon Shadow Island.

Conan rushed up to the second floor, and immediately found that Takeshi Nishimoto was standing in front of a room door, his legs trembling, he stared blankly inside, then fell to the ground, pointing to the room with a look of fear on his face, I wanted to say something, but I was too scared to speak.

Conan rushed forward, looked into the room, and was immediately stunned. There was blood all over the place. Not far from the door, the village chief Heiyan, whose hands and feet were tied behind his back, was naked and lying motionless in a pool of blood.

At this time, the Mumu police department led the crowd to rush over, and Miss Lingzi shouted: "Dad!" Then she wanted to rush in, but was stopped by the Mumu police department and Mao Li.

The Mumu Police Department ordered: "Call the forensic personnel and the forensic doctor immediately." Then, when his subordinates took over, he turned his head and whispered to Mao Li, "In this way, the scope can be concentrated among these few people."

Maori said, "You mean..."

The Mumu Police Department said: "All the entrances and exits here are fully guarded by police officers..."

At this time, the forensic doctor who entered shouted: "Mumu Police Department, the man is still alive." He began to untie the rope tied around the hands and feet behind Village Chief Heiyan's back.

The Mumu Police Department immediately said: "Doctor Chengshi..."

Dr. Cheng Shi immediately walked into the room and started working with the forensic doctor. In order to keep the certificate, the forensic personnel kept taking pictures beside him.

After tearing off the tape that was attached to the eyes of Village Chief Heiyan, Dr. Cheng Shi said, "There is no trauma to the back of the head and back."

The forensic doctor said: "There is no lower body, I think he can be turned over." Then he worked with several forensic personnel to turn the fat Heiyan Village Chief over.

Seeing the bloody face of Village Chief Heiyan, and smelling the bloody smell rushing towards his face, Dr. Chengshi coughed, and then said, "It seems to be the same as Mr. Kawashima, only there is a wound between the chest and abdomen."

"Are you okay?" the forensic doctor asked.

"Cough, cough, it's okay." Dr. Cheng Shi said, and then asked, "Hey, what is this?"

Looking at the thing on the heart of Heiyan Village Chief, touched it, felt it, the forensic doctor peeled it off bit by bit, and then said: "It's a piece of plastic skin or something."...

"Okay," said Dr. Cheng Shi, "I'm going to the bathroom." Then he rushed out.

The forensic doctor said: "Mumu Police Department, Village Chief Heiyan needs a blood transfusion immediately."

According to the joint diagnosis of Dr. Chengshi and the forensic doctor, the head of Heiyan village only needs blood transfusion at present, and whether there are other conditions needs to be observed continuously and more detailed examinations are needed to confirm. His wounds are concentrated in the chest and abdomen, but some of them are no longer bleeding. There are no other traumas on his body. There are only three reasons for his coma. One is because he was given sleeping pills, and the other is excessive blood loss. , the third is caused by the impact when falling from a height.

Not long after Heiyan Village Chief was taken to the clinic by the forensic doctor, the forensic personnel reported that they could enter the scene.

Looking at the equipment in the room, Mumu Police Department asked, "What is this place?"

"Broadcasting studio." Mr. Murasawa replied.

Look at the rope on the door,

Mao Li said: "With the size of Village Chief Heiyan, if you want to hang him up, he must be a strong man."

"No," said the forensic officer, "There is a block of pulleys on the wall. Even a woman can easily pull Village Chief Heiyan up."

Megure Police Department asked: "So, what else was found?"

The forensic personnel said: "First, there is a box of recordings in the player, and there is about ten minutes of blank space in front of it, but there are traces of automatic rewinding on the player. Second, there is a plastic bag, which is the same as the one in the early morning, and There are also traces of pasting tape, and there are no fingerprints. However, this time there is a drugged handkerchief inside, and a small carving knife that should be the murder weapon, but unfortunately there are no fingerprints either."

At this time, Conan, who had seen the room, asked, "Did you find the music score?"

"No," replied the forensics officer, "no musical score found."

Pointing to the big puddle of blood, Conan asked, "What kind of pattern does that seem to be?"

Squatting down to observe carefully, looking at the faint lines covered in blood on the ground, Mu Mu Police Department said: "It does seem to have some pattern."

Soon after, a musical score appeared on the ground, a musical score made of blood. It seems that the music score was carved on the ground first, and then the village chief Heiyan who was wounded was hung above to let his blood flow in.

"By the way, Police Department Megure," Yamazaki said, "Mr. Kuroiwa's blood seems to be bleeding faster than Mr. Kawashima. If Kashigami is not careful, he might be splashed on his body."

The Mumu Police Department immediately ordered: "Go and check them all right away."

Thirty minutes later, the forensic personnel came to report that Mr. Hirata, Mr. Nishimoto, Miss Lingzi, Mr. Murasawa, and Mr. Shimizu, these five people had no blood at all. The blood-stained area of ​​Dr. Cheng Shi is exactly the same as in the photo of the certificate just now, except for the sole of the shoe, but there is no blood on the ground where she was sitting, so she has no problem.

At this time, a police officer came in with a photo, which was a photo of village head Heiyan's wounds after the blood was cleaned up by the forensic doctor.

The Mumu Police Department said in surprise: "This is..."

"Isn't this a sheet music?" Maori asked, "Lan, do you know it?"

Looking at the two rows of staves on the body of Village Chief Heiyan in the photo, Lan said in surprise, "Ah, this is the score at the beginning and end of the third chapter."

"Are you sure it's Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata?" Mumu Police Department asked.

Lan nodded and confirmed, "Yes."

"Megure Police Department," Mori asked, "Could it be that Mr. Kawashima..."

"That's right," Megure Police Department confirmed, "Mr. Kawashima's body is engraved with the music score at the beginning and end of the second chapter of the Moonlight Sonata."...

In the hall of the village office, everyone was convened, and the Mumu Police Department said solemnly: "Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata will be played after the crime is committed, blank time will be left on the tape, continuous music scores will be carved on the victim's body, and Looking at other methods, I think the prisoner is the same person."

Then, looking at the people on Moon Shadow Island present, the Meguro Police Department continued: "The last time Chief Heiyan appeared was around four o'clock in the afternoon, and he was found around five o'clock in the afternoon. Although the tape was only blank for ten minutes, there were traces of turning over the tape. , That is to say, after four o'clock in the afternoon can be the time to commit crimes, so you are all suspects. The first discoverer, Mr. Nishimoto Takeshi, Dr. Asai Narumi who helped just now, Mr. Hirata Kazuaki, secretary of the village chief, and the village chief's daughter Ms. Kuroiwa Reiko, your fiancé, Mr. Murasawa, and Mr. Shimizu Masato, the candidate for the village chief election. You..."

"Wait a minute, Police Department Megure," Mr. Hirata called, "I've been staying in this hall since the village chief left."

The Mumu Police Department asked back: "Then do you have any witnesses?"

Looking at the others, Mr. Hirata said, "You all should know, I've always been here."

Mr. Shimizu said: "I'm sorry, I really didn't pay attention, so..." and no one else spoke.

Seeing this, the Megure police department asked: "Mr. Nishimoto, although you are the first person to discover it, what are you doing in such a place?"

Mr. Nishimoto quickly replied, "Heiyan told me to go there."

Mao Li asked: "Did you do it, and then pull the door when the time comes so that he can hang him..."

Mr. Xiben quickly shook his head and said, "No."

"It's Shimizu," Miss Lingzi called. "If there were no candidates for the election of the village chief, if my father and Kawashima weren't there, then Mr. Shimizu would have been the village chief."

"How is it possible," Mr. Shimizu immediately shouted, "It's not me."

Maori said, "Did you know that they have an appointment, so you want to borrow Mr. Nishimoto's hand..."

Mr. Shimizu immediately said: "I didn't know this happened at all."

"Uncle Maori," Conan said, "Heiyan Village Chief doesn't have a rope around his neck." He took a photo from Yamazaki and handed it to Maori.

Seeing that there was no rope around the neck of Heiyan Village Chief who was lying on the ground with his hands and feet tied behind his back, Maori said again: "That is to throw him..."

Yamazaki said: "After calculation, that height can only cause him some minor injuries, such as bruises such as swelling. Of course, if he is extremely unlucky, then maybe what will happen."

"I see," Mao Li said again after clapping his hands, "That's because there's something under him, wait for him to drop..."

"There is something under him," Yamazaki said with a smile, "it's just made of soft plastic." He then passed a few more photos.

Mumu Police Department took the photo, which was the photo of Village Chief Heiyan's heart and the thing torn from his heart, and ordered his subordinates to bring the thing. After looking at it, he asked suspiciously: "What the hell is this thing?"

"A piece of flattened conical soft plastic skin." The forensic officer replied, and then wrapped a piece of paper into a pointed cone, then glued it up, and then removed the excess, and finally placed the cone point up. On the table.

"This..." Taking a closer look at the paper cone, Mu Mu patted it with his hand, and immediately felt a little pain, but when he picked it up, he didn't even break the skin.

Walking to the table, looking at the flattened paper, Maori couldn't help but ask, "Is this the kind of thing?"

The Mumu Police Department murmured suspiciously: "Can people fall down just by pulling the door?"

Mao Li wondered to himself, "Without a hanging neck, there is still a soft plastic skin underneath that can't poke people to death?"

"So," Mumu Police Department asked very puzzled, "What is this murderer going to do?"

"Well, well..." Holding his chin, Maori said, "By the way, he must have injected him with something else. Mr. Kawashima was not..."

"However, the syringe has never been found." Megure Police Department said, "It seems that Village Chief Heiyan is going to be sent to Tokyo for a detailed inspection." Then he ordered, "Call back immediately and ask them to send Come a helicopter."

Hearing this, Miss Lingzi immediately yelled at Qing Shui again, so the two had a big quarrel. The Mumu Police Department and Mao Li stepped forward to dissuade them, and the scene immediately became a mess.

Seeing this, Lan, who had been concentrating on listening to the case, relaxed, and then, inadvertently, saw that Conan was reading a booklet, so he asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at the music score left at the scene," Conan said, "I think it must be the code left by the murderer. What kind of relationship might those sharps and flats have?"

"By the way," Lan said, "in terms of a piano, those are black keyboards."

"Keyboard?" Conan said, "If you say that..." Looking at the people who were arguing and arguing, Conan said loudly: "Understood, you will be next." Look to him.

"Conan?" Lan said in surprise.

Conan said with a smile: "This code is very simple if you know the tricks. Starting from the left side of the piano keyboard, put the English letters in order, and then write the message you want to convey on the music score in Japanese pinyin. Reading the sheet music of the public hall based on this clue, it becomes, 'Understood, you are next'."

"Conan, you are amazing." Lan admired.

Mao Li immediately asked: "Then what about the score written in blood just now?"

"This," Conan read while looking at the sheet music transcribed in the booklet, "The resentment of Huo Jie will be eliminated here."

Mr. Hirata said in surprise: "Huo Jie's resentment, could it be..."

Miss Lingzi interjected, "The pianist who committed suicide twelve years ago..."

"Hey..." Mr. Nishimoto laughed in horror, "It's that guy, Keiji Aso, he's still alive."

"He was indeed dead." The policeman from Moon Shadow Island opened the door and recalled, "The bones and tooth shapes found at the fire scene were consistent with his. This is absolutely true. Everything was burned at the time. All that's left is the sheet music in the fireproof safe."

"Music score!" Mumu Police Department and Mao Li immediately shouted in surprise. Then, pointing to Mr. Policeman's nose, Maori asked loudly, "Where, where are those sheet music now?"

"It's in the warehouse of the public hall," said the policeman after a moment of thought, "but the key to the warehouse is in the village police station."

The Mumu Police Department immediately shouted: "Then why don't you hurry up and get it."

"Yes." Mr. Police said and turned around and ran out.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Police," Conan called, "I'll go too." Then he followed.

Ran shouted, "Conan..."

"I'll go." Yamazaki said and went out. ...
