The door remained motionless.
"Uncle Maori, this door is pushed open." Conan reminded him speechlessly beside his legs.
"Huh? Haha, of course I know! I was just checking the condition of the door just now. This is a basic detective operation, do you understand?" Uncle Maori shouted at Conan.
Conan: "..."
You are such a fool for basic operations!
After hearing what Uncle Maori said, the people around him who were originally looking at him with somewhat strange eyes, all stared at him and started whispering.
"Is this a detective? Why would a detective come to our island? Is he investigating this matter?"
"I don't know. He looks unfamiliar. He's definitely not from our island."
"If he's a detective, then it's nothing. No wonder I saw him pull the door twice and didn't even remember to push it. I heard detectives are very meticulous. I didn't expect him to start looking for clues on the door before he even went in. He's really amazing!"
"Who do you think is playing the piano in there? I don't see anyone missing from our group."
"Why isn't there any missing? Didn't you notice..."
While a group of people were discussing with each other, Uncle Maori had already pushed open the slightly heavy door of the piano room.
Xiaolan was closest to Uncle Maori, so the moment the door opened, she could see clearly what was happening inside.
"ah!"
Chapter 330 Conan: This case shouldn't be difficult, I said
"Oh! God, how could this happen!"
The moment the door opened, many of the people outside saw the situation inside clearly and cried out in surprise, causing another commotion at the scene.
There was no one else in the entire piano room.
Only one person sat on the bench next to the piano in the center.
This guy was not polite at all. He was covered in water and looked a little disgusting.
He lay down on the piano keys.
Such an expensive piano was ruined beyond recognition by him.
The water stains also dripped from the piano and his body.
The man turned his back to the people outside and faced the window on the other side.
It was as if he was taking a rest out of tiredness, enjoying the scenery outside the window.
at the same time.
In the piano room, there were bursts of faint piano sounds.
It obviously sounds pleasant, but when paired with the scene in front of me, it reveals an extremely weird atmosphere.
"tick"
"tick"
The sound of the piano was mixed with the sound of water dripping onto the ground.
For some reason, the combination of the two sounds magically compatible.
One can't help but feel as if he is in a kingdom of God.
This can be the kingdom of God or the bleak hell.
Most of the people outside the piano room took a step back.
Only Conan and Uncle Maori rushed in.
Uncle Maori rushed to the lying man and after calling out to him several times without any result, he immediately reached out and placed his hand on the man's pulse.
Pause for a moment.
His expression stiffened.
Then his brows were twisted like a knot.
He didn't remove his hand, but kept pressing it for a few seconds.
Finally, as if he had confirmed something, he closed his eyes weakly, then took a deep breath and sighed heavily.
Yuan Mei also came over at this time, but her expression looked somewhat calm, as if she had expected this situation.
Seeing Yuan Mei approaching, Uncle Mao Li shook his head at her: "There's no hope."
The implication is that this person is dead.
It turns out that he didn't intend to make the environment dirty.
I really misunderstood him.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Mei nodded but didn't say anything.
Conan didn't pay any attention to Uncle Maori's detection of whether the man was dead or not.
Because when he ran over and saw the man's face for the first time, he could tell that the other person had probably been dead for quite some time.
Not to mention calling a doctor now, even if they called a great immortal, it would be useless.
Of course, if they can really call over, that’s another story.
But the fact is, they can't call upon the great immortals, and even if there are doctors, there are only a few of them on this island, and without the conditions, it is impossible to perform surgery here.
So even if this person still had his last breath, in the middle of the night, even if he was sent to the nearest place for treatment by boat, he would probably die as soon as he got on the boat.
Therefore, after seeing this person, Conan just carefully observed the details on him and then focused his attention on the surrounding environment and the piano.
"Dead, is he dead?" Xiaolan was a little afraid to get close.
She hid behind Yuanmei and was immediately panicked when she heard her father say that this person was beyond saving.
Corpses, dead bodies, strange pianos, eerie moonlight sonatas...
Putting all these terms together, Xiaolan instantly wove a horror story in her mind.
However, if she really knew the reasons behind these things, she would probably feel that reality was far more horrifying than she had imagined.
"Yeah." Uncle Maori nodded, answering her question.
"What about the children?" Xiaolan said stutteringly.
She looked back, but didn't see Wang Changsheng and Chishiro. There was only Conan, who was following his father with a serious face, tinkering with something in front of the piano.
She wanted to catch Conan, but she didn't dare to get close to the corpse.
As a result, he could only hesitate and hide behind Yuan Mei, not daring to move forward.
"I asked them to stay outside because I was worried that there might be some special situations here, so I didn't let them in." Yuanmei whispered to Xiaolan.
Towards such a cute, beautiful and generous high school girl, Yuan Mei's attitude is not as cold as towards other stinky men, but rather gentle.
"If you are scared, you can go out first. There is no need to force yourself to stay here." Yuan Mei's voice was a little soft.
"Well, okay." Xiaolan hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
It wasn't that she was too scared to stay here.
After all, before coming here, she had encountered many cases with her father and Conan.
In fact, I have developed a certain psychological tolerance for things like corpses.
In addition, when she and Kudo Shinichi went out on dates occasionally, they always encountered some cases.
Actually, the fear of corpses is not that bad.
But this time, there are not just a few of them here.
There are a few children outside.
Xiaolan thinks that children should have less exposure to such scenes.
And if they were all here, it would definitely not be safe to leave the children alone outside.
Although the cause of this person's death is still unknown, he was covered in water, his skin was pale, and he didn't seem to have any external injuries. Perhaps he drowned.
How could a drowned person lie on the piano by himself?
In other words, there is a high possibility that a murderer has appeared in this place.
Now that such a dangerous person has appeared, those children cannot be left unattended.
"I'll wait for you outside and take care of Sakura and Changsheng." Xiaolan nodded and turned to leave.
However, Yuan Mei gently stopped her with some doubt.
"Hmm? Do you have anything else to say?" Xiaolan turned her head.
"Well, aren't you going to take that kid out with you?" As she spoke, Yuan Mei glanced at Conan who had gone straight to the corpse.
Xiaolan: "..."
She looked at Conan's serious face, then looked at Yuan Mei's puzzled expression, and finally showed a somewhat awkward smile: "No, it's okay, you don't have to worry about him."
"Is that so? Okay then." Yuan Mei nodded slightly and didn't say anything else. But when she turned around, there was a little more curiosity in her eyes when she looked at Conan.
"Then I'll go out first." Xiaolan also politely said goodbye to Yuanmei, and called her father to take good care of Conan, then hurriedly turned around and left the piano room and walked out the door.
As soon as she came out, many people standing outside the door cast their eyes on her.
However, Xiaolan didn't care about their looks, but looked around.
Finally, she found Wang Changsheng, Xiaoying and others at the end of the crowd, in a relatively secluded but visible place.
"These little guys are quite smart. Were they brought there by that spiritual Mr. Xinlong?" Xiaolan couldn't help but think in her heart, then she strode out of the crowd and walked towards Tomoyo and the others.
Fortunately, there were adults outside watching Wang Changsheng and the other children, otherwise Xiaolan might not have followed Uncle Maori and the others in, but would have watched the children directly outside.
"Little Changsheng!" Xiaolan walked towards them.
"Huh? Sister Xiaolan, why are you here?" Wang Changsheng was stunned.
Chise and the others also set their eyes on her, and then greeted her: "Hello, Sister Xiaolan."
"Okay, okay, I'll look after you. Did anything happen to you?" Xiaolan nodded and pulled Wang Changsheng, Xiaoying and the others over to look at them one by one.
"We're fine." Sakura shook her head and asked with a puzzled look, "Did something happen in there, Sister Xiaolan?"
They were some distance away from the crowd, a position that Wang Changsheng had chosen on purpose.
Sitting here, Sakura and the others could barely hear what the group of people in front of them were whispering.
"Something happened, but it has nothing to do with us. The adults will take care of it." Xiaolan patted her head and signaled her not to worry.
After hearing Xiaolan's words, Wang Changsheng couldn't help but smile and said to Xiaoying, "I told you, Xiaoying, even if the sky falls, there is always someone taller to hold it up. We don't need to worry too much."
"Okay, I understand..." Sakura nodded obediently and said to Wang Changsheng in agreement.
Meanwhile, in the piano room.
Conan had noticed the remaining water stains on the ground.
He discovered that the water stains were not just dripping from the piano, but extended all the way to the back door, forming a line of water marks.
Judging from the traces of water here and there, the body was most likely dragged in through the back door.
Glancing through the window, he discovered that outside the window was the same beach he had seen when he was taking a walk with Wang Changsheng and Li Xiaolang.
And not much time has passed since the piano music started.
In other words, when he followed Wang Changsheng out of the forest for a walk, it was very likely the time when the murderer committed the crime.
"Damn it, when exactly is that?"
Conan's brows were furrowed the whole time.
He felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have listened to Wang Changsheng and gone back directly.
He should have stuck to his original idea and sneaked into the community center through this back door.
Maybe you will just catch the murderer in the act.
This damn Wang Changsheng!
Wait, he insisted on going for a walk at that time, could that be related to this matter?
