Yuan Mei, who was standing not far from him, silently tugged at her shawl.
Ok!
As a member of the Tiangong family and the controller of the Daidoji chaebol, she had never been forcibly summoned like she was today...
That's not right. When she went to the Kinomoto family to cause trouble before, Fujitaka asked her to leave like this...
Cough!
In short, the reason she was kicked out of the community center was because of this little kid in front of her...
Not only Sonomi, but even Uncle Maori and Xiaolan, who had been muttering for a while, turned their eyes to Conan in front of them.
"Oka-san, what are you doing standing at the door? Why don't you go in?"
Suddenly, Chise's slightly doubtful voice sounded.
Uncle Maori, Yuanmei and the others turned around and saw Wang Changsheng, Linghuan Xinlong and the others walking towards them.
Wang Changsheng's expression was also somewhat puzzled.
Although he used magic to rush over to call people, it also took some time for him to chat in the guesthouse. Why were these people still standing here when they arrived?
"Aunt Yuanmei, did you just arrive?" Wang Changsheng asked curiously.
"..."
Seeing that Uncle Maori and Mother Tomoyo were silent, Wang Changsheng's eyes moved around them suspiciously, and then fell on Conan.
"Could it be that Conan-brother did something that caused you to be kicked out?"
As Wang Changsheng finished speaking, Uncle Maori and the others had different expressions, and he immediately confirmed his idea.
Logically speaking, no matter how quickly Wang Changsheng called for help, Uncle Maori and the others should have planned to go in even if they had just arrived here, instead of standing stupidly at the door as if they were being punished.
"Well, that's right. We had already gone in, but..."
Seeing that the two elders were silent, Xiaolan could only smile awkwardly and explained to Wang Changsheng and the others, "It's because Conan was not obedient at all. Everyone was preparing for the memorial service for the former village chief, but he went in to cause trouble. He even ran to the piano room and played the piano nonsensically. That's why we were... uh, asked to leave."
Xiaolan patted Conan's head gently. Although her tone sounded blaming, she was not really angry, and she would not hit a child like her father.
After listening to Xiaolan's explanation, not only Wang Changsheng, but even Zhishi fell silent.
Linghuan Xinlong, who was standing next to Wang Changsheng, looked at Conan strangely and was also speechless.
The kid is indeed a kid. If he had behaved like him when he visited his guests' homes before, he would have not even had enough to eat.
"You're here too, Sakura." When Sonomi saw her daughter and Sakura running over, she quickly stopped being speechless about Conan's brainless behavior and instead waved to Sakura.
"Why are you alone here? Where are your father and the others?"
"My brother and the others didn't want to come, and we don't know what Dad was busy with in the house. We didn't call him." Sakura and Tomoyo walked over to Sonomi and answered her questions honestly.
"I see." Sonomi patted Sakura's head, "It's okay if you don't come."
It's annoying to see him anyway.
"So, because Conan played the piano recklessly, you were asked to leave. Then..." Wang Changsheng looked at Uncle Maori and the others and asked, "Can we still go in? If not, do we have to wait here forever?"
"The village chief's secretary told us to wait here." Uncle Maori curled his lips. "What? Although it's not right for Conan to play the piano, he is a child after all. What child doesn't like to play? He just touched the piano twice, and that's not okay. Those guys are really petty. They actually kicked us out for such a small thing."
This time, Uncle Maori rarely pointed the finger at Conan, nor did he give him a heavy punch of love. Instead, he was very dissatisfied with that secretary.
Conan was very touched by Uncle Maori's kindness and raised his own doubts and guesses for everyone: "Uncle Maori, do you think that Mr. Hirata Kazuaki seems to take good care of the piano in the remote piano room? It's almost a bit nervous."
From Wang Changsheng's perspective, Conan's big lens seemed to reflect a ray of light because of the sunlight.
So much so that the eyes behind the lenses can no longer be seen.
"Oh, and I just tried to play the piano twice, and I discovered a problem."
Chapter 323: Holy Magic Circle - Purgatory
"Problem? Is there something wrong with that piano?"
Xiaolan tilted her head. The horn on her head was very solid, and it didn't look like a sharp curve that could be pushed up by hair.
"It's not that there's something wrong with Qin." Conan shook his head, then nodded: "Of course there may be something wrong with Qin, but I just didn't notice it."
"Little brat, what do you want to say?" Uncle Maori was very unhappy with Conan's silly behavior, and he immediately blew his beard and glared at him.
Under the threat of Uncle Maori's fist, Conan didn't dare to keep it a secret any longer and told everything he had guessed in one breath.
"I tested the timbre of that piano, and it's very accurate. It doesn't sound like it's been sitting there unplayed. But have you noticed that the remote piano room where the piano is placed doesn't look like anyone would go there?"
"The people inside seemed to be desperate to avoid the piano."
"But the piano's tone is very accurate, and it seems like someone is constantly tuning it. Isn't this a very strange thing? The residents of the island all stay away from this piano, but someone often comes to this remote piano room to tune it..."
Conan blurted out all his speculations.
But his reasoning made Xiaolan a little scared.
"How could this be? There's someone tuning the piano every day in a piano room that no one normally visits... Could it really be, as Dr. Asai said, that Mr. Aso Keiji's ghost has taken possession of the piano? He's the one who tuned the piano, and he's the one who plays it..."
Xiaolan spoke hesitantly.
She immediately thought of the rumor she had heard from Asai Narumi in the hospital.
"Eh??"
Apart from Xiaolan, Sakura had the biggest reaction.
If there weren't so many people present, Sakura would have jumped up after hearing the word "ghost".
She quickly moved towards Wang Changsheng and asked, "Xiao Wang... what were you doing before? Why did you bring up... brought up... ghosts?"
Sakura lowered her voice when she said the word ghost.
It was almost like no sound was made, just the mouth was open.
However, Wang Changsheng still understood what she said.
"Don't be afraid." Wang Changsheng stretched out his hand naturally and held Xiaoying's little paw with his backhand.
Now that Xiaoying's immediate family members are not around, Wang Changsheng took Xiaoying's hand without any fear.
Besides, Sakura only came close to him because she was scared.
Wang Changsheng said that he held Xiaoying's hand purely to comfort her and had no other thoughts. He was willing to swear on Xiaolang that he would be single for the rest of his life!
"Sakura." He said softly and comfortingly, "What Sister Xiaolan said is just a rumor. Don't worry. It's fake."
Wang Changsheng did not sense any ghostly presence on the island, and because he already knew Cheng Shi's entire plan in advance, he knew very well that the reason the piano's tone was so accurate was because Cheng Shi would sneak in from time to time to adjust it.
He told them strange rumors, such as the piano would always play itself in the middle of the night, and the former village chief died on the piano and played the piano himself after his death...
It's all bullshit.
"Rumor, rumor?" Wang Changsheng's words were like a gentle spring breeze, blowing into Xiaoying's heart and calming the grassland that was dancing wildly because of fear.
Although she was still a little uneasy, Xiaoying believed in Wang Changsheng very much.
Since he said it was just a rumor and not true, he must be right.
"Don't worry, ghosts aren't anything to be afraid of. If it really dares to come out, I'm here. I'll beat it so hard that even its mother won't recognize it. I'll even ask a master to draw a talisman to scare it away."
Wang Changsheng used his fingertips to gently pinch Xiaoying's soft palm.
His other hand smoothed Sakura's hair.
Wang Changsheng touched her head and pinched her paws with both hands, and Xiaoying's cheeks immediately turned red.
She couldn't help but lower her head shyly: "I understand..."
Chise, who was standing by, watched the interaction between the two, a smile curled up at the corner of her mouth. She didn't know when, but she had already raised a camera in her hand.
The camera was naturally aimed at Wang Changsheng and Xiaoying.
"So what if someone plays the piano every day? The piano is in a public place anyway. Maybe someone likes to play the piano but can't afford one, so they come here secretly to play."
Uncle Maori disagreed with what Conan said.
He raised his head slightly to glance at the sky and realized that it was actually not that early anymore.
"hateful!"
Uncle Maori raised his left hand without looking at the watch on his wrist: "Has it been so long?"
"Damn it! A whole day has passed, and the person who sent us that letter of commission hasn't even shown up."
Gollum-
Uncle Maori was talking when his stomach started to growl.
He immediately rubbed his abdomen with one hand, his expression almost tearful. "Damn it! We've been starving for almost a day. Whoever sent us here, why didn't they just come out and see us? Could they at least explain the situation and get us some delicious food? How could a host behave like this? They actually left their guests outside, starving and waiting like idiots!"
The more Uncle Maori thought about it, the angrier he became, as if taking a step back would just cause his tumor to grow.
But there was nothing he could do.
In the end, he could only vent all his anger and dissatisfaction on Conan.
"Little brat, we were kicked out because of you! What's so special about that piano? If I had known we would be kicked out like this without any respect, I should have gone somewhere else first."
Uncle Maori touched his stomach and felt really hungry.
After all, they had been running around non-stop since getting off the boat, and their last meal was on the boat.
"How can you blame me for this..." Conan said he didn't want to admit Uncle Maori's accusation, "I just played the piano twice, this is not disrespectful to the former village chief, right?"
"That's true." Uncle Maori sighed deeply.
He actually wanted to take everyone away.
But the secretary of the current village chief was firm in his words and just asked them to stay here.
If the clues to finding the client were not found in the few people in the museum at that moment, Uncle Maori would have left long ago after being treated so coldly.
"I think their memorial service will last for a while. Why don't we go nearby to see if there is anything to eat, and then come back to check on the situation after we finish eating." Yuan Mei said.
"Ah, is this okay?" Uncle Maori hesitated.
"What's wrong with that? We came here to have fun, and the commission was just a side job. What right does he have to order us to stay here and wait for them foolishly?" Yuan Mei raised her red lips slightly.
What is her identity and his status?
You still dare to order her?
If she hadn't been kicked out because she was in the wrong, she would have made that secretary pay for it!
The business world is like a battlefield. Although Yuan Mei is usually kind to Wang Changsheng and Xiaoying, she quarrels with Kinomoto Fujitaka every day and looks like a bullied little woman.
However, in reality, Fujitaka was once both her teacher and the husband of his best friend.
The two have a deep connection, and apart from the issue of Nadeshiko, there is actually no real dispute between them.
Even Yuanmei still has a lot of admiration for Fujitaka in her heart.
Besides, as a woman, she can take the helm of the Dadao Temple Group and make the entire company and family prosper. Her ability cannot be weak, and her attitude towards unfamiliar outsiders will naturally not be the same as that towards acquaintances.
So Yuan Mei said straightforwardly, "When I came here, I saw there seemed to be a seafood restaurant over there. Let's go, let's go eat first and come back after we're done."
"Yeah, even though I took the money and have to complete the commission, I just have some questions for them. Why should I stand here in the cold?" Uncle Maori thought it made sense. "Come on, let's go get something delicious."
Although the client was not found, he was asked to treat us.
But Uncle Maori felt that with the presence of Wang Changsheng, an elder who was such a big shot and whom everyone knew, it was just a meal, so he should pay for everything, right?
Uncle Maori was calculating in his mind, trying to get as much as he could and save as much as he could.
This way I can buy more beer...
The main theme is that everyone is for me and I am for myself.
"It seems like it's getting dark." Conan looked up at the sky.
They arrived here by boat in the afternoon and were busy running around.
It was getting dark at this time, and the setting sun was falling, giving the world the last ray of afterglow.
"Yes, just now when we were inside, Dr. Asai said that it was almost evening and it would be inappropriate for us to stand outside." Xiaolan nodded.
While they were at the community center, Dr. Asai also came over after get off work.
I happened to see them being kicked out.
