Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?

Chapter 23 Even the corpse was more serene than his expression.

"Yes, I'm just working on the island."

Makoto Asai smiled and said, "When I have nothing to do on weekends, I always go back to Tokyo, so of course I know that high school detective who's all the rage in the Kanto region."

When Kogoro Mori saw that she was praising that brat, he quickly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, wasn't it you, Dr. Honesty, who performed the autopsy on that former village chief two years ago?"

"Did Mr. Kameyama really die from a heart attack?"

When it came to serious matters, Makoto Asai became much more serious and earnest.

"That's right, Mr. Kameyama died of a sudden heart attack, but his face was very tense, as if he had seen something frightening. Perhaps that was the reason for his sudden heart attack."

“But unlike today, the doors and windows weren’t locked up that day. I vaguely remember that one window was open.” She walked to the window and pointed to one of the windows, “It’s this one…”

Before the words were even finished, Kogoro Mouri and Conan shouted in unison, "Who is it!"

After saying that, the two of them jumped out of the window together, and Uncle Mori even tripped because his legs were too long.

Ran and Makoto Asai both crowded to look out the window, while Kazuma Kudo stood at the back and didn't move forward.

He also saw the shadowy figure outside, but since the murderer was right in front of him, there was no point in catching the shadowy figure. He decided to let the unlucky guy and his father-in-law go by themselves.

Before long, the two returned empty-handed.

Kogoro Mouri said, quite unwillingly, "As expected, the culprit came back for the sheet music. It's a pity we couldn't catch him..."

He ate a few bites of his late-night snack as if venting his anger, then crawled into the sleeping bag the old policeman had brought.

"We'll take turns keeping watch here tonight, so we can notify everyone in time if the murderer returns."

Kogoro Mouri made good arrangements, but unfortunately, he and the old policeman fell asleep shortly afterward.

Xiao Lan made a few fist gestures at her sleeping father, looking quite helpless.

Kudo Kazuma pointed at the two sleeping people: "Two of them are asleep now, leaving just the three of us with a little kid. What are we going to do?"

Makoto Asai watched Ran's actions with amusement, then thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Ran-san, take Conan to bed, and the two of us will keep watch."

"How can we do that?" Xiaolan said, a little embarrassed. "We might as well all guard it together."

"Alright, do you have a cell phone?" Kudo Kazuma clapped his hands. "I'll download a little game from our company for you guys, guaranteed to keep you energized!"

……

The next morning, Inspector Megure finally arrived with his men.

Kazuma Kudo and Makoto Asai both put down their phones and yawned.

Conan was still clutching Ran's phone with a ferocious expression, looking as if he wanted to fight the phone.

Xiao Lan sat beside him, smiling gently, and said, "Don't worry, you've already had thirty-three experiences, you'll definitely pass the first test this time."

Inspector Megure couldn't help but feel a sense of awe: "Whoa! What's Conan doing?"

"We're playing games," Kudo Kazuma said, suppressing a laugh. "Uncle Mori and the police officer are asleep, so we're playing mobile games to keep ourselves awake during our night watch."

"Mouri is so unreliable, and the police here too, are you just supposed to guard the place? We're here, you guys should go back to sleep, I'll go wake Mouri up!"

Before Inspector Megure went to call Kogoro Mouri, he couldn't help but glance at Conan.

He really doesn't understand young people. Is playing a game really that scary?

Look at Conan's expression.

Even the corpse looked more peaceful than him.

Kazuma Kudo yawned and patted Conan on the shoulder: "Stop playing around, go to sleep."

Conan played for half a day with gritted teeth, and finally saw a glimmer of hope to pass the first level, but was slapped by Kazuma Kudo, and the game character died on the spot.

Kazuma Kudo shrugged and turned to Ran: "Ran, we only play games to stay awake, but Conan seems a bit addicted... Isn't that a bad idea? Won't it affect his studies in the future?"

Ran, finding this reasonable, immediately interrupted Conan's idea of ​​another round and dragged him to bed.

Conan, who couldn't play games, gritted his teeth and glared at his bratty younger brother, but when he thought about sleeping next to Ran, he realized that playing games wasn't so important anymore.

The four of them slept until after 5 p.m.

Kudo Kazuma wanted to sleep a little longer, but was woken up by his unlucky older brother who had shrunk in size.

After kicking the unlucky guy, he sat down on a chair in the community center and went back to sleep.

Makoto Asai, Conan, and Ran sat next to him, yawning.

After dozing off for a while, Kudo Kazuma faintly heard the sound of a piano and rubbed his eyes.

"problem occurs!"

Kogoro Mouri let out a loud yell, and Kazuma Kudo was fully awake.

Seeing everyone running towards the broadcasting room, he followed.

When he arrived at the broadcasting room, a large crowd had already gathered there.

Ken Nishimoto, his hair all sticking up, sat on the ground looking terrified. Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri were holding back the village chief's daughter, while Conan stood at the door with his fists clenched, his eyes fixed on the inside, lost in thought.

He followed the crowd's gaze and looked inside, where he saw the burly Black Rock Village Chief lying in front of the radio station, a dagger stuck in his back. Beside the village chief's body was a black wisp of spirit.

Ignoring the soul of the village chief Kuroiwa, Kudo Kazuma stepped forward and absorbed his spirit. Then, after checking the village chief's pulse, he said in a deep voice, "As expected, the murderer wanted to kill more than just Mr. Kawashima."

Without the spirit's cover, he noticed something under the corpse's chair and immediately alerted everyone.

Inspector Megure arranged for Makoto Asai to perform an autopsy and other police officers to inspect the scene. When he heard Kazuma Kudo say that there was something there, he quickly came over with Kogoro Mouri to take a look.

"Brother Edogawa is indeed perceptive." Inspector Megure came over to examine the things on the ground. "It's sheet music drawn with blood..."

Kogoro Mouri squatted on the ground, studying the sheet music as he said, "Could this be a death message left by the victim?"

"How is that possible?" Conan squatted down beside him, scribbling something in his notebook, muttering to himself as he wrote, "Instead of using his own blood to write this, he should have run out and asked for help. I think this was left by the murderer... Oh dear!"

Before he could finish speaking, Kogoro Mouri punched him on the head, knocking him to the ground.

Seeing Conan collapse onto the sheet music drawn in blood, Inspector Megure nearly jumped up: "Don't destroy important evidence!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the sheet music was intact.

After being scolded, Kogoro Mouri turned around and scolded Conan: "Don't come here to cause trouble, you brat!"

After finishing his notes, Conan scoffed and went to a corner to study them on his own.

Kazuma Kudo also came over and stared at the sheet music Conan had drawn by hand, saying, "If the sheet music on the ground was left by the murderer, then the sheet music on the paper should also have been left by the murderer, right?"

Conan nodded: "So, these two sheet music pieces must be related..."

He glanced at Kazuma Kudo as he spoke: "Moreover, I suspect that the time of death was not a few minutes ago as Dr. Honesty and Inspector Megure judged, but rather earlier."

Kazuma Kudo nodded: "Because the bloodstains on the ground have already dried, and bloodstains can't dry in just a few minutes, right?"
