Chapter 38

"If there are evil spirits, the Onmyoji Lord will definitely be able to subdue them."

A crowd escorted Akaso Kaze and Ran into the community center and arrived at the piano room.

In the spacious room, there was only one piano.

A person soaked from head to toe was sitting in a chair, their head slumped over the keyboard, facing the window.

The beautiful and ethereal music echoed in the room, as if from heaven, yet also as if from hell.

"What?"

"Someone really died?"

"Isn't this Mr. Kawashima, the richest man on the island?"

"He's also a village head candidate."

"That's right, he's also responsible for encroaching on farmland and polluting the fishing grounds."

"In that case, it really is a good thing for Moon Shadow Island..."

The villagers looked at Akaso Kaze's back and instantly felt he had grown a bit taller.

The Onmyoji Lord is truly very capable.

"Quickly report to the police station, and everyone else present, don't leave yet."

"Miss Asai, please be responsible for the autopsy."

Encountering a case, Kogoro Mouri immediately became serious.

Conan was in deep thought.

"I understand. The request letter Uncle received hinted at this Beethoven's 'Moonlight'."

"Twelve years ago, when Keiji Aso died, he played this piece repeatedly."

"The previous village head, Isamu Kameyama, was also playing this piece before he died."

"Now, this piece is being played again."

"It's clear that the letter was actually: A warning that a murder will occur again on Moon Shadow Island on the night of the full moon!"

Akaso Kaze yawned.

"Fellow villagers, we were all eating at the restaurant earlier and can testify for each other, so there's no need to interfere with the detective and police work here. Let's go back and rest."

"Detective Mouri, little Conan, I'll leave this to you. Ran and I will go back to rest at the largest inn on the island."

"Huh?"

Kogoro Mouri and Conan, who loved solving cases, were fine, but Narumi Asai was stunned.

You're slacking off way too much.

It was one thing not wanting to hear about the island's situation during the day.

But someone has died now!

As an Onmyoji, shouldn't you be communicating with the yin and yang to assist in solving the case?

In that case, what is the point of me hiring you? **Chapter 105**

Akaso Kaze glanced back as he left.

Souls, of course, there were.

It was perched right on top of Narumi Asai's head.

And it was dripping water.

It was flowing down her neck and into her clothes...

But now wasn't the time to deal with it.

Should he go up and say, "I need to cut off a piece of your hair?"

The hair that soul was grabbing was quite a lot; he'd probably have to cut it into a short style.

No rush, there were two more anyway; he could harvest them all together later.

Go back and sleep with Ran first...

The villagers all dispersed, and those who were in the community center at the time of the crime also left because the large number of police wouldn't arrive on the island until tomorrow.

Only Kogoro Mouri, Conan, Doctor Asai, and the only old police officer on the island remained to guard the crime scene, preventing anyone from tampering with it.

Many things happened that night, but none of them had anything to do with Akaso Kaze.

He had a very comfortable sleep.

Of course, he slept alone.

Capturing Ran Mouri wasn't that easy.

Clearly, after the affection level exceeded 5, the difficulty of increasing it rose significantly; after so long, it had only increased by 1 point.

And that 1 point had reached the stage of holding hands and kissing lips.

What would happen if it increased by another point?

Akaso Kaze was very much looking forward to it.

The next day, he slept in, and by the time he got up, it was already bright outside.

He called Ran, and after breakfast, the two went to the village office.

The police were questioning the suspects one by one, led by an old acquaintance, Inspector Megure.

"Morning, Mr. Mouri, Conan, Doctor Asai."

Looking at the three guys with dark circles like pandas, Akaso Kaze's lips curled slightly.

"Any clues?" He poked Conan.

Conan yawned and said:

"The situation in the piano room at the time, the doors and windows leading to the sea were all locked."

"Mr. Kawashima's body was slumped on the piano, and there were drag marks of seawater mixed with a small amount of sand on the floor."

"Mr. Kawashima was soaked all over, smelled of seawater, and had sand on some parts of his body. It's certain that the killer must be among those who were in the community center at the time."

Looking at Akaso Kaze, who was refreshed and living very comfortably, Conan was so angry his teeth itched.

He asked deliberately: "By the way, Big Brother Akaso, you also took the client's retainer fee. Isn't it bad to be so leisurely?"

"Leisurely? I'm not leisurely."

Akaso Kaze leaned lazily on the chair, looking at Kogoro Mouri and Doctor Asai, who were paying attention, and smiled: "As for me, I already know who the killer is."

"What?"

Kogoro Mouri and Conan were shocked.

And Doctor Asai was terrified.

"Wh, who is it?" Conan asked nervously.

He had thought about it for an entire night and hadn't figured out who it was.

This Akaso Kaze actually went back and had a comfortable sleep, didn't investigate the scene, didn't question the suspects, and already knew?

Even if there's a gap between us, it can't be this big, right?

This is too un-Conan-like.

Akaso Kaze's lips curled, and he said meaningfully: "The killer, well, is actually right in front of our eyes..."

Conan instantly showed a pair of dead fish eyes.

"Big Brother Akaso is clearly slacking off."

"Isn't saying that the same as saying nothing? Of course it's right in front of our eyes. It must be one of the few people left here; the suspicion of everyone else has already been ruled out."

Doctor Asai, however, was breaking out in cold sweat.

He knew, he really knew!

As expected of an Onmyoji who charges 20 million.

Didn't do anything, ate when it was time to eat, slept when it was time to sleep, and easily locked onto the killer.

But...

Why didn't he stop me?

Even after killing one person, he still didn't expose me?

Narumi Asai stared at Akaso Kaze with her beautiful eyes, unable to believe it.

Unfortunately, the other party ignored her completely.

For Akaso Kaze, today was another day of slacking off. **Chapter 106**
