Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

"Tokyo?"

The man took a closer look and found that he was indeed not a local.

Maori Kogoro said: "We want to find the village chief."

The man was quite alert: "Who are you?"

Maori Kogoro patted his chest and said, "I'm a detective!"

When the man heard the word "detective", his expression changed. Seeing several people looking at him, he forced a smile and said, "Come with me!"

Several people followed the man into the community center, and the man gave a brief self-introduction.

It turns out that he is Kazuaki Hirata, the secretary of the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji.

Walk to the door of a room.

"You guys wait on the chairs outside for a while, I'll go in and talk to the village chief." Hirata Kazuaki said.

Then he pushed the door open and entered the room.

Time passed by minute by minute, but Hirata and Akira still didn't come out.

Maori Kogoro lit a cigarette and said impatiently: "How long do we have to wait?"

"Dad, there are two little kids here!"

Xiaolan snatched Kogoro Mouri's cigarette and put it out in the ashtray on the table next to her.

Kitagawa Taki chuckled and said, "Conan, it seems he's gone."

This kid couldn't wait any longer and started exploring the map everywhere.

Xiaolan looked around but didn't see any trace of Conan.

"Where's Conan? Wasn't he here just now?"

Maori Kogoro had no intention of getting up to look for Conan. "He's probably gone somewhere to play again! Don't worry about him, he will come back by himself."

"He went over there." Huibara Ai pointed to the end of the corridor.

Xiaolan walked over immediately.

At this time, Hirata Kazuaki finally came out of the room. He saw Xiaolan walking towards the room at the end of the corridor and chased after her in a panic.

"What the hell is this secretary doing!"

Kogoro Mouri followed behind with a displeased look on his face.

……

in the room.

There was only a grand piano placed in the middle of the room, with nothing else, making it look very empty.

Xiaolan stood at the door of the room with her hands on her hips and shouted, "Conan! You're running around again!"

Conan, who was about to play the piano, was shocked and turned around to explain: "Sister Xiaolan, I'm just a little bored."

"I can't be bored..."

Before Xiaolan finished speaking, Hirata Kazuaki caught up and saw Conan about to touch the piano, and hurriedly said: "Don't touch that piano, it's a cursed piano!"

"Cursed!?" Xiaolan exclaimed.

Hirata Kazuaki looked horrified: "That was the piano that Mr. Aso played at the concert on the day he died!"

Conan and Kogoro Mouri were instantly attracted by "Mr. Aso".

Maori Kogoro hurriedly asked: "Mr. Hirata, is the Mr. Aso you are talking about called Aso Keiji?"

Hirata and Ming were quite surprised: "How did you know?"

"Because we received a letter of commission from Keiji Aso." Kitagawa Taki leaned against the wall.

Hirata Kazuaki's squinting eyes widened, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Mr. Aso has been dead for more than ten years!"

Maori Kogoro asked, "Can you tell me in detail?"

“Mr. Aso was born here and was a famous pianist in the past and has always been very popular.

On a full moon night twelve years ago, he returned to his hometown after many years and held a concert in the community center.

However, after returning home, he suddenly locked himself and his family in the house and set a fire.

It is said that he first killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and then, as if haunted by some ghost, he kept playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata until he was consumed by fire..."

Hirata and Ming talked about it.

Hearing what he said, Maori Kogoro whispered to Kitagawa Taki: "Brother Kitagawa, is this piano really cursed?"

Kitagawa Taki shook his head.

"He donated this piano to the community center. It must never be touched! The same thing happened to the former village chief, Isamu Kameyama!"

As he spoke, Hirata Kazuaki picked up Conan from the piano chair.

"Former village chief?"

After receiving the reply from Kitagawa Taki, Maori Kogoro has attributed this matter to normal events.

"Two years ago, on a full-moon night, I happened to pass by here and heard the sound of a piano coming from the community center. When I came in to check, I saw that Mr. Kameyama had died on this piano!"

"Was the song played at that time also 'Moonlight'?"

"That's right." Hirata Kazuaki nodded.

Conan took a look at the piano and he didn't believe it.

While no one was paying attention, he ran back to the piano, opened the lid, and played "Stepping on the Cat".

"There's clearly nothing different about this piano!"

"You kid!" Maori Kogoro walked up, knocked Conan on the head, and then lifted him down, "I told you not to touch it!"

Hirata Kazuaki was horrified and rushed them to the door, saying, "Anyway, until the former village chief's ritual is over, you should all wait at the entrance!"

After saying that, he closed the door of the room, ignored everyone, and left alone.

"It's all your fault, little brat, for not listening!" Kogoro Mouri gave Conan another slap on the face.

Conan covered his head and muttered, "There's no such thing as a curse in this world!"

He had just tested it out and found that the piano had a very accurate pitch, so it must have been tuned regularly by someone.

"Let's go, they are trying to chase us away." said Kitagawa Taki.

He has seen through the tricks——

There was a secret compartment inside the piano, and inside the compartment was white powder.

This is why Hirata and Akira are so nervous.

……

Entrance.

A few people met Ma Chengshi, who was dressed in black, and there was a man with a flat head and a suit next to him.

"Mr. Beichuan, you are still here!"

Maori Kogoro asked, "Ms. Narimi, are you here to attend the funeral of the former village chief?"

"Yes, I happened to be on this island when Mr. Kameyama passed away, and I was the one who performed the autopsy on the body."

After explaining, Asami introduced the man to the others: "This is Mr. Shimizu Masato, one of the candidates for village chief."

Several people nodded in greeting.

"Then we'll go in first!"

Asanari greeted him and then entered the community center with Shimizu Masato.

Maori Kogoro sat down directly on the steps at the gate, took out the letter of entrustment, and said, "I didn't expect it would be sent by a dead person."

"Dad, how could a dead person send a letter?" Xiaolan twitched her lips and expressed her guess: "Maybe it was sent by someone who knew Mr. Aso?"

Conan squatted aside, not daring to say a word. He and Xiaolan had the same idea.

The letter of commission was definitely sent by someone related to Keiji Aso, but what exactly does the content of the letter mean?
