162 The Murderer's Logic

Asai Narumi, this wise gentleman found the music score left by Keiji Aso before his death, and discovered that Keiji Aso actually had a child alive in the world. With the emergence of his identity, to be honest, in this matter

Indeed, there are still many doubts.

In particular, through the interpretation of the music scores left by Keiji Aso, it can be clearly seen that Keiji Aso wrote it for his son. So why is Dr. Narumi a real woman?

What was Keiji Aso's intention when he deliberately wrote "son"?

Although the reasons given by Dr. Chengshi are quite understandable, at this moment, facing this old policeman who may have been on the island all his life, he may know some other things...

So, Conan thought, and after asking this question, he curiously waited for what kind of answer the old policeman would give——

"Well...if you say that..."

Upon hearing Conan's inquiry, the old policeman began to rub his chin and raise his head to think, and then slowly said:

"By the way, apart from having a daughter, Aso also has a son. I remember his son's name is... Seji?"

There seemed to be some uncertainty, and the old policeman's tone was not very sure either.

"son?"

Regarding this answer, Conan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that this detail could be matched with the content of the music score, but Asai Naomi denied it, so Conan couldn't help but ask:

"Are you sure? Police uncle!"

"Well... I should remember correctly. Because Aso's son has been seriously ill since he was born, he has been receiving treatment in a hospital in Tokyo. It seems that Aso did not bring him back to the island until Aso set himself on fire.

Been on…”

The old policeman thought for a while before giving this answer.

Conan was slightly surprised by this and pointed out one of the questions——

"In other words, no one on the island has really seen that 'son'?"

"Um……"

Hearing this question, the old policeman pondered for a moment, and then slowly said:

"You can't say that...someone should have seen it before..."

"Who?"

Conan couldn't help but curiously asked.

"That's Masato Shimizu. After all, Masato Shimizu, as a fishermen's representative, often goes to Tokyo to negotiate with fish suppliers, so he once went to a hospital in Tokyo to visit Aso's son who was hospitalized at the time. This shouldn't be the case.

There will be mistakes.”

The old policeman replied.

"Mr. Shimizu? Does he have a good relationship with Mr. Aso?"

Conan asked, somewhat puzzled.

"How do you say this..."

Faced with this question, the old policeman couldn't help but touch his chin, thought for a while, and then answered:

"Because Aso's son has been hospitalized since he was a child, Aso's income at the time was actually a bit unable to afford the burden of his son being hospitalized. The person who solved Aso's urgent needs at that time was Masato Shimizu. But later,

As Aso has more and more opportunities to perform overseas, this burden is no longer a burden to Aso."

"Huh? When exactly did Mr. Aso stop worrying about his son's hospital bills?"

Regarding what the old policeman mentioned at this time, Conan couldn't help but think of something and asked hurriedly.

"Well... it was probably two or three years ago before the fire happened."

The old policeman gave a rough estimate of the time, but he couldn't remember the details clearly.

So, Conan, who probably already had some ideas, nodded, then simply changed the topic and asked:

"By the way! Did Mr. Aso really burn down his own home by himself?"

To be honest, it is also a big doubt as to why Keiji Aso put himself in the house where he was and then set fire to the house where he and his whole family were burned to death. Why was it spread so clearly?

Could it be possible that there were witnesses at the time?

Thinking about this, Conan couldn't help but ask.

"Well, that's right. That's what the witnesses at the time said."

The old policeman replied.

"Who are the witnesses?"

Conan asked.

"Well..."

After thinking for a moment, the old policeman adjusted the glasses on his face and replied:

"I remember the former village chiefs Kameyama and Kawashima...oh! There are also the four village chiefs Kuroiwa and Nishimoto."

"Hey? Why did they happen to witness Mr. Aso's death scene at that time? Also, are they related in some way?"

Regarding this situation, Conan was not surprised. After all, according to the music score left by Keiji Aso, the fire was caused by those four people. However, out of curiosity, Conan still wanted to hear what the old policeman would do.

Don't know anything else.

"Four of them?"

When Conan asked this question, the old policeman immediately gave the answer without thinking too much:

"The four of them grew up with Aso."

"Were each other childhood friends?"

Conan asked slightly surprised, and the old policeman seemed to be nostalgic and couldn't help but sigh:

"Well, I remember that the five of them often met to learn piano together when they were young. Among them, Aso and Nishimoto had the best relationship. Even after Aso became a famous pianist, Nishimoto often went to his overseas performances to praise him.

Where is the field?"

"Really?"

Conan was a little surprised by this situation. At the same time, thinking back to the music score left by Keiji Aso, he felt it was a pity——

"Uncle, I still want to ask about other people's things, is that okay?"

After thinking for a while, Conan continued to ask.

"oh?"

After being asked so many questions by Conan one after another, the old policeman didn't feel any trouble and just let Conan continue to ask questions.

So Conan then asked:

"It's about that tall, dark man Murasawa..."

"Murazawa... that kid is a smart guy. He came to this island about three years ago. He seemed to be a student at that time. Later, he fell in love with the village chief's daughter and got engaged not long ago. However, Murasawa

The president has always been opposed to their engagement."

"What about the village chief's secretary Hirata?"

"He is a timid and cowardly person, and I don't know why he was chosen as the secretary by the village chief. However, he seems to often meet Kawashima secretly at the community activity center. I really don't know what they are doing..."

"Then... where is the remaining candidate, Mr. Shimizu, the candidate for village chief?"

"He is a very good man. Not only does he have a great sense of justice, but he is also deeply loved by the fishermen. The fishermen on the island also gradually began to become rich under the leadership of Qingshui. However, the only flaw is his impatience.

…”

In this way, the old policeman answered Conan's questions one by one, and basically told everyone's situation. Then when the old policeman saw that Conan began to think deeply after asking these questions, the old policeman couldn't help but smile kindly, and then said:

"Brother Detective, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Ah? No, no more..."

With that said, Conan waved to the old policeman, said "goodbye", then turned and ran towards the second floor of the island office——

The basic situation is already clear, all that's left is to find the evidence!

Although the evidence of the first two incidents is a bit difficult to find, as long as there is evidence to prove the murder of the Black Rock Village Chief that just happened, the murderer will no longer be able to deny it!

——"I already understand the logic behind the murder of these three deceased people in succession!"

Thinking like this, Conan couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in his heart...



At the same time, after Gao Yuan left the island office on the pretext of helping everyone buy dinner, Gao Yuan accepted the invitation and came to a restaurant on the island——

Sitting on a remote seat, sitting in front of Gao Yuan was Jinguji Reito who had already been eating here——

"Detective Akechi... I wonder if you still remember - Lavender Villa?"

After Gao Yuan proposed to the store to pack a dozen meals to support the proprietress who was running the store alone, Jinguji Reito suddenly said this...
