"Two women can do this, but judging from the drag marks on the ground, there should be only one murderer."

It's not Conan who speaks, but Summer.

Xia Ri pointed to the sand and water stains on the ground and added: "This trace is obviously caused by dragging. If the murderer was two people, they would not have left such heavy dragging marks when they carried it together!"

"Well, what you said makes sense." Kogoro nodded first, and then concluded, "Then it can basically be concluded that there is only one murderer, and he is not for women!"

Not for women!?

Xia Ri shook her head secretly. The murderer must be alone, but if you say it's not a woman, this is still questionable.

After all, Xia Ri had seen Xiaolan's rough and superb karate skills with his own eyes. He knew that several adult men might not be Xiaolan's opponents together.

If the murderer has the skills of Xiaolan, it doesn’t matter whether he is a man or a woman!

But Xia Ri was just thinking about it. He knew in his heart that girls like Xiaolan were only a few after all, so how could they be seen everywhere on such a remote island?

Tatsuji Kuroiyan glanced at Kawashima's body and asked in confusion: "But why did the murderer transport Kawashima's body here? If he just wanted to kill him, wouldn't it be enough to throw him into the sea? At that time, the corpse fell into the sea, and even if we wanted to find it, it would probably take more time."

"This is exactly what I can't figure out..." Xia Ri rubbed his eyebrows, "The murderer not only moved the body here, but also put a piano piece on it, as if he wanted to deliberately attract our attention."

Kogoro snorted coldly: "Hmph, I think it's probably the murderer who wants to create the illusion of a piano curse, which will disturb people's hearts!"

Kogoro's statement sounds reasonable, but is the truth really the case?

Xia Ri was thinking too much. He didn't understand that such a bad trick as hiding a radio in the piano would be exposed as long as he thought about it. But why did the murderer do this?

At this time, Nariki Asai found a piece of white cloth from somewhere and covered it with Kawashima's body.

Kogoro walked to the piano, stroked his hand over the piano body, and turned around and asked, "When did this piano start to be put here?"

The staff member took a step and explained: "This piano has been placed here since Mr. Aso donated it to the community event center 15 years ago."

"Oh? Did Mr. Aso give it?"

"Yes." The staff nodded, "his name is still engraved on the piano lid."

When Kogoro heard this, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched the lid on the piano keys. However, when he just moved the lid a little away, he suddenly found that there was a music score on the body of the piano behind the lid!

"Huh? Music score? It's so strange. I didn't see this when I came during the day..."

As soon as Kogoro finished speaking, everyone present changed their faces. There was a thin man in the crowd. After screaming, he actually knocked away the crowd and ran away like running away.

Looking at the man's departure back, Kogoro looked puzzled and asked casually: "Who is that man?"

"Oh, he is Mr. Nishimoto..." the staff replied, "I heard that he was not only a powerful figure in the past, but also had everything to eat, drink, betting, but since Mr. Kameyama died two years ago, he had been hiding at home all day long as he was scared by something."

Two years ago?

Xia Ri frowned. The former mayor Guishan died two years ago. This Xishan changed its appearance two years ago. What happened two years ago...

Xia Ri stepped closer to Kogoro and looked at the score, but because he knew nothing about piano music, Xia Ri naturally could not see any tricks.

"Dad! I'm back!!"

Suddenly, Xiaolan's voice, which had been away for a long time, suddenly came from behind the crowd. Xia Ri turned her head and looked at her. Xiaolan was pulling an elderly policeman wearing glasses, running all the way to the door of the piano room with sweat, gasping heavily.

"Why are you so slow..." Kogoro said dissatisfied.

"Because...the phone has not been connected, so I had to run over to find the police by myself..."

Because the policeman was already old, it was not convenient to walk, not to mention that Xiaolan had been dragged so far away. He looked at the people in the room panting, adjusted his breathing, and asked, "What happened here...is this...?"

The staff told the old policeman everything that happened, and then introduced Kogoro to him.

"This is Mr. Kogoro Mouri."

"Oh? Maori!?" A glimmer burst out from the old policeman's eyes and he said excitedly, "I know, it's that famous..."

After the first two blows, Kogoro had already advised himself that these islanders were all ignorant countrymen. Even if they had never heard of their name, they should not be as knowledgeable as them. However, when they saw the policeman's expression, Kogoro could not help but feel hope in his heart.

"Yes, I'm the famous tripod..."

"Space Pilot!!"

"I……"

Kogoro looked up and down the old policeman and said in a dissatisfaction: "Hey, Xiaolan, why did you find such a hometown... the old policeman comes over?"

The staff looked at Kogoro awkwardly and explained: "I'm so sorry, Yueying Island is not very big after all, and nothing will happen on the island normally, so there is only this policeman on the entire island."

"That's how..."

Kogoro glanced at the old policeman again with distrustful eyes.

Just looking at it, you can feel that the policeman is already a little confused. It is impossible to feel at ease when he handed over the murder case to him.

After discussing with Xia Ri, after Xia Ri's proposal, Kogoro decided to hand over the matter to more professional policemen. So he took out his cell phone and called Officer Meguro who was far away in Tokyo.

...

After hanging up the phone, Kogoro looked around the room.

Because it was already very late, and finding the murderer would not be over in a short time. What's more, before Officer Meguro came, Kogoro, as a private detective, was not qualified or authorized to inquire and investigate the islanders.

And now the only thing they can do is to keep the scene as it is and wait for Officer Meguro to arrive.

"Okay, next, please leave here first, and let's talk about everything when it's dawn!"
