Chapter 48 The Ghost Murder Incident on Moon Shadow Island, the Beginning~
On Saturday morning, the sea was still foggy.
On the deck of a transport ship, Xiaolan, Conan, and Uncle Mori were all leaning against the ship, watching the morning waves: "Ahhhhh~~ Really, I am the famous detective Mori Kogoro, why? To act together with this deceitful necromancer..."
Xiaolan turned her head and gave Mori Kogoro a supercilious look: "Father! How can you talk like that! Shu Sang, like us, received commissions from Moon Shadow Island. Moreover, the person who commissioned him is also the same as the commissioner. It's the same as my father's, it's that gentleman named Keiji Aso!"
Conan chuckled from the sidelines, but he was thinking in his heart, who is Keiji Aso, and why did he entrust detectives and... a spiritual master at the same time?
"Ahh~~" Mori Kogoro sneezed again, and touched his nose with his hand, "By the way, if you put it this way, do you have any inside information about that client, Keiji Aso, that high school student?"
"This... how do I know!" Xiaolan shook her head.
Uncle Mao Li asked: "Aren't you friends with him? Didn't he say anything?"
"No……"
After Xiaolan finished speaking, she suddenly looked in the direction of the cabin: "Ah ~ Shu Sang, are you coming to enjoy the sea view in the morning too?"
Shu Yunwen walked out of the cabin, greeted everyone with a smile, and replied: "Speaking of which, I also want to enjoy the wonderful scenery in the morning. However, the weather this morning seems to be impossible to see!"
"The weather this morning does not seem to be very good." Xiaolan replied with a smile, and then continued, "However, the weather forecast said that today's weather should be very good. So, it is only temporary..."
"Maybe." Shu Yunwen smiled, and then said to Uncle Mao Li, "Speaking of which, being able to accept the commission from the same person as Mr. With Goro's help, my entrustment this time will definitely be very easy."
"Ah...hahaha! Shu Sang is so polite, I'm actually just a little famous." Mori Kogoro immediately got carried away.
Xiaolan rolled her eyes——Dad, where's your integrity? It seems that just now he was saying behind his back that he was a deceiving exorcist.
As for Conan, he said "hehe" again, scolded a sycophant in his heart, and then reached out and pulled Shu Yunwen's clothes: "Brother Yunwen, brother Yunwen, you also accepted the commission from Mr. Keiji Aso, Right? Do you know what happened to that person?"
I know that Keiji Aso died a long time ago, and I entrusted us to be hypocrites, do I have to tell you?
Shu Yunwen complained in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "Ah! You said that Mr. Keiji Aso's entrustment! Actually, speaking of it, I don't know who that Keiji Aso is. Yesterday, Mr. Matsushita from the office called me and told me that there was a letter of entrustment from Moon Shadow Island, which said that I would be allowed to go, and the entrustment fee was also sent along with it. That's why I..."
"That's it..." Conan nodded, it's the same as Uncle Maori's side, "Can you show me the entrustment letter?"
"Of course." Shu Yunwen agreed with a smile, then took out a commission letter from the inside pocket of his jacket, and handed it to Conan.
After Conan opened it, he saw that it was the same as the letter of entrustment from Uncle Mori. It was made by cutting out specific words from newspapers, pasting them on paper, and putting them together.
"Respect to Master Yunwen: My humble Aso Keiji, the evil spirit in everyone's mouth, will take the soul of the evil person..."
Conan held it and read it halfway, but Uncle Maori snatched it away, and gave Conan a fist by the way: "Go away, kid, let me see!"
So, Conan carried the big bag and went to draw circles aside.
"...if there is a powerful spirit remover,
Please purify all evil spirits. Keiji Aso, the evil spirit. "Mori Kogoro finished reading the rest, then scratched his head, "Haha? What a strange entrustment letter! "
Shu Yunwen nodded with a smile and said, "Yes~ this entrustment letter is indeed very strange. Matsushita-kun and the others in the firm actually advised me not to accept this entrustment."
"Ah? Really?" Uncle Maori asked, "Then why..."
"Because there is no other way, the other party also sent the entrustment fee together. There is no one to refund the five million yen entrustment fee..." Shu Yunwen replied casually.
As soon as Shu Yunwen finished speaking, Mori Kogoro, Xiaolan, and Conan all looked at Shu Yunwen in disbelief and astonishment: "Five, five million yen? The commission fee is so much?"
"Haha..." Shu Yunwen scratched his head with a smile, "If a top spirit exorcist is entrusted to deal with evil spirits, our firm's quotation is indeed like this."
"Hehehe...Is that so?" Mori Kogoro was upset.
Damn! Why are you a liar, except for the entrustment fee of the spiritual master, which is five million yen, while my well-known and famous detective Mori Kogoro is only worth half a million yen... Nima, I feel so inferior.
Uncle Mori was already thinking in his heart that when he saw Keiji Aso, he must give him some color. Don't wait to discriminate against detectives like this.
Conan said at this time: "Uncle Mao Li, have you read Brother Yunwen's entrustment letter? Can you show it to me now?"
"Hmm... Take it! Take it! Damn kid." Uncle Maori threw the letter to Conan.
Shu Yunwen said with a smile at this time: "By the way, Mr. Mao Li, can you show me the entrustment letter you received?"
"Of course no problem." Uncle Mao Li responded, took out the entrustment letter, and handed it to Shu Yunwen.
Shu Yunwen took it and opened it.
"On the night of the next full moon, on Moon Shadow Island, shadows will start to disappear again. Please go and investigate the reason, Keiji Aso..."
Shu Yunwen read it once, stretched out his hand to pinch his chin, and shook his head.
Two entrustment letters, one for the detective and one for the spiritual master, if you analyze it, it can be said that it is the struggle of two thoughts in that guy's mind.
In the entrustment letter written to Shu Yunwen, Asai Chengshi compared himself to an "evil spirit" and directly said that he wanted to kill "evil people". This is his evil side; , although it also stated that "there will be shadows starting to disappear", but he invited detectives to investigate the reason. This is his kind side that doesn't want to kill people.
However, think about it.
My whole family was killed, and I finally found out the murderer. I wanted to take revenge, but I was shackled by the kindness in my heart. This is the way between good and evil.
"Brother Yunwen, brother Yunwen?" Conan reached out and pulled Shu Yunwen's clothes, interrupting Shu Yunwen's thoughts, "Do you know what the evil spirits and evil people in your entrustment letter refer to?"
Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes: "How would I know? I've never been to Moon Shadow Island..."
Well, in fact, Shu Yunwen only remembered that Makoto Asai committed murder in this case, but he couldn't remember the specific method of killing and how many people he killed...
"oh……"
Conan squeezed his chin, took the entrustment letter from Uncle Mao Li in Shu Yunwen's hand, and looked back and forth, the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt.
This feeling...why does it look like a notice letter! For example...
Murder Announcement!
...
In the afternoon, outside the office of Moon Shadow Island.
"Damn it! What kind of prank is this? This Aso Keiji is obviously a dead person, how could a dead person send us a letter of entrustment!" Uncle Maori looked at the letter of entrustment in his hand with some depression, and directly kneaded it The regiment was thrown not far away.
"Hey! Dad! How can you do this!"
Xiaolan complained, and Conan ran over, picked up the entrustment letter, and said to Uncle Maoli: "Uncle Maoli, I don't think this is some prank! After all, the client sent the commission fee to the detective Not to mention, the commission fee from brother Yunwen is as much as five million yen. Even if someone really wanted to play a prank, it is impossible to pay such a high price, right?"
"Hmm...that's true." Uncle Mao Li held his chin.
Shu Yunwen also said aside: "Also, Mr. Mao Li. Although that Aso Keiji is dead, this letter is very likely to be sent by Mr. Aso Keiji's relatives, friends, etc. In addition, the letter just now A person from the public office seems to have said that Keiji Aso died more than ten years ago, right? He died in his own home, first killed his wife and children, and then burned his own home... Perhaps, some people think This matter is very weird, so I entrusted us to come here."
Conan took the letter from Shu Yunwen again, and said with a smile: "Actually, we still have a way to find the client. These two letters are both stamped with the postmark of Moon Shadow Island, so it should be Moon Shadow People from the island. In addition, he paid off all the entrusting fees to Uncle Mao Li and Brother Yunwen. Uncle Mao Li’s 500,000 yen plus Brother Yunwen’s 5 million yen made a total of 550. Ten thousand yen. The one who can easily come up with this sum of money must be a very rich person on the island, right?"
"That's right!" Xiaolan clapped her hands, "The person who sent the entrustment letter should be good friends with the dead Keiji Aso, and the person who can take out 5.5 million yen at once must be very happy." It's easy to ask. Conan, you are really smart!"
Conan scratched his head: "Hahaha~ where is it! Uncle Maori must have thought of what I said a long time ago, but he just didn't want to say it."
"Is that so?" Xiao Lan squinted at Uncle Mao Li.
Mori Kogoro said hastily: "Of, of course! As the famous detective Mori Kogoro, who is famous all over the country, of course I have thought of it long ago, but I just don't bother to talk about it."
Shu Yunwen laughed beside him.
Conan, your reasoning is so good, you are not afraid of being exposed~
Shu Yunwen turned his head and looked around. After seeing the building not far from the office, he was stunned for a moment, got up and walked towards it.
Seeing this, Uncle Mao Li, Conan, and Xiao Lan asked strangely, "Shu Sang, where are you going?"
Shu Yunwen smiled slightly: "After listening to what little friend Edogawa said, I also think it makes sense. However, you are not familiar with the place here, so it's probably inappropriate to ask for news rashly, right?"
"Huh? Does Shu Sang have any friends here?" Xiaolan asked.
Uncle Maori and Conan also looked curious.
Shu Yunwen smiled: "I think of it, there seems to be a client in the firm before, who is from Moon Shadow Island. He is a doctor, maybe we can ask her about it."
"She? Is it a female doctor?" Uncle Maori looked forward to it even more.
The corners of Shu Yunwen's mouth twitched twice, what a hypocrite~ Although Shu Yunwen knew that Naruto Asai was a man, it was better to pretend that she was a woman before the dust settled.
"Hehe... I think the clinic on Moon Shadow Island is in front of me, and she may be inside." Shu Yunwen said, "If there is an acquaintance, wouldn't it be easier to inquire about things?"
"That's right." Uncle Mao Li nodded.
The four of them wandered into the Yueying Island clinic, and the nurse at the front desk immediately said, "Hi everyone, can I help you with anything?"
Shu Yunwen smiled and said: "Hi, I'll ask Naomi Asai, is she there?"
"Doctor Asai is at work today..." The nurse flipped through the notebook, "Do you have an appointment?"
"No……"
"If you don't have an appointment, you may have to wait for a while..."
Before the nurse finished speaking, Shu Yunwen turned his head and swept his head. After seeing the people in the aisle, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Doctor Asai Narumi?"
The person whose name was called turned his head: "Master Yunwen?"
Shu Yunwen smiled and nodded: "That's right, it's me."
"Master Yunwen, please wait for a moment." Asai Cheng told the truth, he calmed down the little queen dowager in front of him, and walked over quickly, "I really didn't expect to meet Master Yunwen here."
"Haha... I received a commission, so I came here." Shu Yunwen pointed to Moori Kogoro, Xiaolan, and Conan beside him, and introduced them one by one, "This is Moori Kogoro, a well-known figure in the country. A detective, this is his daughter Mao Lilan, as for this kid, his name is Edogawa Conan..."
"Ah! It's a Maori detective? I've read a report about you." Asai Chengshi looked adoring, and there was no disguise at all.
Mori Kogoro scratched his head with a smile and said, "It's a great honor to have such a beautiful fan like you..."
A few people said a few polite words, and Asai Chengshi said again: "It's not convenient to talk here, please follow me." After finishing speaking, Asai Chengshi looked at the nurse at the door, "Miko, I still have a few appointments today. patient?"
"No more. Fujiwara-san was supposed to come, but later canceled the appointment."
"That's good." Asai Chengshi turned around with a smile, and said to Shu Yunwen and the others, "As a doctor, what I look forward to the most is that the fewer patients, the better..."
Everyone walked outside Asai Chengcheng's office, Shu Yunwen suddenly said: "Ah...I'm so sorry, Dr. Asai. Where is the toilet, can you tell me? I want to go to the toilet..."
"For the toilet, turn left in front..." Asai Narumi pointed in the direction.
Shu Yunwen said: "I'm really sorry, can you take me there?"
"Of course." Asai Chengshi opened the door of his office first, "Mr. Mori, Miss Mori, and Conan, please wait in my office first..."
"Okay, no problem." Uncle Mao Li nodded and walked into the office.
Conan the kid glanced at the office twice, and said strangely: "Doctor Asai, don't you have a bathroom in your office?"
Asai Chengshi said with a smile: "The toilet in the bathroom is broken, and I have already found someone to fix it..."
Uncle Maori gave Conan a fist: "You brat with a lot of problems."
Asai Chengshi led Shu Yunwen to the door of the bathroom, Shu Yunwen washed his hands in the sink: "I received a strange entrustment letter. If there are really evil spirits who want to take away the souls of evil people, as an exorcist Healer, five million yen, I can help this evil spirit erase some unnecessary traces...no matter..."
"...Is the name of that evil spirit called Keiji Aso?"
Asai Chengshi lowered his head, and raised his head after a while, with a relaxed and decisive smile on his face: "Master Yunwen, thank you. If this is the case, the evil spirit entrusts everything to you..."
With a "creak", the sound of water stopped, and Shu Yunwen shook his hand.
"It's nothing. If it's the soul of an evil person, if there are evil spirits to help take it away, I welcome it."
Shu Yunwen turned around, picked up a towel and wiped his hands: "Let's go. Detective Maori has a very annoying kid with him. If it takes too long, the kid will become suspicious."
After saying that, Shu Yunwen squinted his eyes.
This time, he just wanted to prevent the famous detective from finding out the truth.
