Chapter 424: Yueying Island with simple folk customs
"Aso Keiji?" The man with neatly bristled oily hair shouted loudly, unable to restrain his volume.
As he shouted, everyone in the office, except for a few young people who were really confused, all had strange expressions, and their eyes turned in their direction. .
"What's going on?" In the midst of countless silent gazes, Mouri Kogoro touched his arm, and the faint feeling of creepiness caused some goosebumps to appear on his arm under the suit. "What's going on with this man?"
"You said you received his letter..." The man was sweating on his forehead and his teeth were chattering slightly, "But this is impossible, because, because he , died more than ten years ago ”
"What!" Upon hearing this, Mouri Kogoro and the other three were shocked.
"Yes, to be specific, it was twelve years ago...I remember, it was a full moon night." The man stared at the empty space with a fearful look. The floor, as if seeing scenes from the past, "As a famous pianist at that time, Aso locked the whole family in the house for some reason after participating in a homecoming performance celebration held by the islanders at the community center. , and then lit a fire..."
At this point, the expression on his face could no longer be restrained, and his hands hanging by his side began to twitch nervously: "At that time, witnesses saw, He first killed his wife and daughter with a knife, and in the raging fire, he sat in front of the piano and played the same song repeatedly - Beethoven's famous piano sonata, "Moonlight""
"Ah— —" Upon hearing this, Mao Lilan couldn't help but let out a small scream and quickly covered her mouth.
A successful musician suddenly fell into madness after returning home, killed his entire family and then committed suicide...
No wonder the islanders here have such strange eyes. It sounds really weird and weird.
"So, I received a letter from a dead person?" Mouri Kogoro's eyelids twitched, he grinded his back molars and muttered in a low voice.
His words reached the ears of many people present, causing them to exchange glances in secret.
Is this what it feels like to be on a remote island?
Seeing those people silently exchanging glances and looking at each other with either wariness or hostility, Conan couldn't help but take a half step back and put himself close to Mao Lilan and Mao Li Kogoro.
A little too unfriendly, the people here...
————
"A little too friendly, the shadows here."
" Look at our clothes, this must be an illusion, right?”
“Who knows, but this is called Impression Space. It should be a small public space on this small island, right? An isolated island, maybe..."
"The folk customs are simple..." The corner of Tang Ze's mouth twitched a few times, "They are all drug dealers' simple folk customs, right?"
Three people, plus a small robot, each wearing their own Kaitou costume, stood A peaceful and peaceful Moon Shadow Island.
"Good morning, Mr. Hirata, the weather is really nice today."
"Good morning, Mr. Murasawa, how are you doing today?"
Looking at the painting in front of you The islands and buildings have become cartoonish in the wind. Listening to the friendly and laughing islanders around him, Karasawa feels as if his painting style has suddenly strayed from P5 to Animal Crossing.
It could be called Mu ○ Monogatari or Star ○ Valley... In short, it is this kind of paradise atmosphere where people can communicate with each other and hear chickens and dogs. However, even if the people of Tsukikage Island are really like this... If you heard me right, some of the murderers who participated in the murder of Keiji Aso just got in, right?
Say that they also have this style of painting, does Tang Ze dare to say that anyone dares to believe it?
"Friendliness has reached a very false level." Hoshikawa Teru curled his lips, "If we hadn't all entered the Kaitou suit state, I would really believe it."
< br>
If it weren’t for the potential hostility towards the Phantom Thieves...even if this was a public space, there would be no reason why they would suddenly transform.
This is similar to the principle of the palace. When combined with this kind of friendly atmosphere that lacks realism, it becomes even more bizarre in contrast.
"Here," stopping in front of a building, Tangze raised his head and glanced at the door that was also cartoonized, "this place is actually closed..."
This one is especially On the cute cartoon signboard, there are the characters "Moon Shadow Island Clinic" - which is also the main target of Karasawa's trip, the place where Asai Narumi is.
Although it is true that he is the real murderer of the case, considering his behavior and behavior, Dr. Asai is likely to be the only conscience left on the island.
In such a friendly to weird impression space, it happens that this character who still has a conscience and is even struggling with whether to kill or not has hung up his business card...
"It's even weirder." Tang Ze made a strange expression, "Could this be something like Yanan Town with simple folk customs? When the moon rises, you will give me a big one, right? "
"What town?" Miyano Akemi, who didn't understand the two syllables in Karasawa's mouth, turned to look at him in confusion.
"It's nothing," Tangze waved his hand and made a haha. He confused the cross-dimensional rant that came out of his head and pointed in another direction. "If I guessed correctly, that's the community over there. It’s the center, and it’s also a very important place. Let’s go over there and have a look.”
————
“Hello, I’m sorry to bother you, but I want to ask——”
Seeing the female doctor sending the little boy away with a smile, Mao Lilan hurriedly ran two steps closer and asked tentatively: "Excuse me, how to get to the community activity center?"
"Oh, turn right ahead. Just walk to the end." Asai looked at her up and down with surprised eyes for a while, then looked at Mouri Kogoro and Conan who were walking slowly behind her, "You guys look very unfamiliar, you are tourists from out of town. "?"
"Yes, we came from Tokyo." Mao Lilan nodded subconsciously.
“Really? Wow, I’m from Tokyo too.” Asai Narumi laughed with some surprise, “Look, isn’t the environment here much better than in Tokyo? The air is fresh and the living environment is also good. Quiet..."
As she spoke, the female doctor with a high black ponytail glanced at the approaching vehicle, and then grinned slightly awkwardly: "Oh, of course, there are also very Enthusiastic islanders..."
"In order to protect the fisheries on the island and the rights of the islanders!" As soon as she finished speaking, she shouted loudly with multiple loudspeakers placed on top of the campaign vehicle driving past them, "Please support Masato Shimizu, the spokesperson who can represent the people. !”
“Ahaha, it’s a bit noisy, isn’t it?” She scratched her cheek and teased a few words sheepishly, “The village chief election period is about to begin, and the island is a bit noisy... But This can also reflect everyone's enthusiasm, right? I still like this place with simple folk customs."
"You, that's it..." Thinking of the residents who were talking to each other in the office, they were obviously very xenophobic. They, Conan's mouth twitched.
Are the people simple and honest...?
The washing machine leaked, half of the house was flooded, I had to clean it up for several days, wow——
