Chapter 3 The Shadow Shrouded by Moonlight
Today, we must ease our relationship with Sato. Matsuda stopped at the door of the class and humbly bowed. Okay, come on. Matsuda clenched his fists and was about to push the door, but the door was opened from the inside.
"Hmm? Matsuda, it's you." The police department of Meguro said, "It just happened to follow me."
"Eh?" Matsuda was surprised at Megu's sudden words: "I? What are you going to do?"
"A murder occurred on Yueying Island, we are going to the scene. We are just looking for you." Megu explained.
"Why is it me?" Matsuda said reluctantly: "Isn't it good to bring Takagi?"
"You are the candidate recommended by Shirato and Sato at the same time." Meguri said impatiently: "Don't you think you've been too idle these two days? I gave the follow-up of the museum case to Takagi, how could he take off?"
"Haha." Matsuda laughed dryly. Shirato was so accurate that he sold me if he didn't show off. But why did Sato ask me to go too? Do you have any expectations for me? Well, no matter what kind of murder case it is, I have to end it quickly and find out the murderer beautifully.
Matsuda followed behind Meguri, ready to do something big.
"Hey!? Police Department, do you still have to take a boat?" Matsuda suddenly felt all his confidence when he saw Dahai: "It seems to be a very far place."
"Matsuda, come up quickly." Seeing Matsuda's virtue, Megu felt that it was a mistake to bring him out. But his right-hand assistant Shirato strongly recommended it, and he performed well last time... Megu stared at Matsuda who was crawling in the turtle. Was it really him last time?
At the bow of the boat, Matsuda waved his hand weakly to Tokyo, saying something he didn't believe: "I really hope I can rush back to the police station before lunch." Then he turned to ask Meguri: "Sir, what's the case this time?"
"Kawashima, one of the village chief candidates on Yueying Island, is also the largest capitalist on the island, was killed." Meguro said.
"Oh? Village chief candidate?" Matsuda considered it: "With my years of experience in handling cases, this matter is probably not that simple."
"Is that true?" Megu was waiting for Matsuda to say something amazing.
"A man with money and power is killed, then first of all, it may be his competitor and the other candidates for village chief; of course, it may also be someone who has money dealing with him; the possibility of love killing is also very high; is it a local bad group? a maid who is treated unfairly? a business competitor? a relative who is treated meanly? Oh, it's terrible, it turns out that there are so many reasons for being killed... These hateful capitalists deserve to die." Matsuda said seriously.
Ha? Thinking of Matsuda's years of case handling experience, Megu sneered: "I finally know what you have done in these years."
Eh? Matsuda, whose thoughts were interrupted, looked at Meguru in confusion.
Meguru patted Matsuda on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother Matsuda, I know you are under a lot of pressure. I know a psychiatrist in the Health Management Department of the General Affairs Department. Maybe you can talk to him."
Hey!? Matsuda slapped Megu's hand off and said angrily: "I don't have any psychological problems!"
When he arrived at the crime scene at the Tsukikage Island Citizen Hall, Matsuda was the first to see Conan. Haha, no wonder he would die. Then he glanced at the situation inside the room. In addition to Mr. Kogoro who was sleeping soundly, there was also an old patrolman who also slept sweetly. Xiaolan and a beautiful woman stood aside.
After hearing them tell the situation at that time, Matsuda began to walk around the piano twice. Then when the forensic class took a photo of the deceased Kawashima, Matsuda also leaned over and touched Kawashima's shirt.
When Conan handed over the moonlight score to Meguro, Matsuda came to Xiaolan and asked her: "So is there anything different among the people present yesterday?"
"Huh?" Xiaolan was suddenly asked by Matsuda, and there was no blank answer.
"Have you found anything? Brother Matsuda." Meguri and Conan looked over.
"If the deceased was drowned at the beach, then he would have struggled strongly before his death. Even if the murderer was a strong man who could hold the deceased firmly, he would definitely be wet by the sea water at the beach, and some parts of his body were covered with sand." Matsuda said: "If the sand has time to clean it, no one would bring two sets of clothes to participate in the ritual. If he was not drowned, then what was the reason for the murderer to pretend to be drowning?"
This guy! Conan looked at Matsuda in surprise.
"Xiaolan, who is he?" Dr. Cheng Shi quietly asked Xiaolan on the side.
"It's Officer Matsuda who searches for the first lesson. He is a very powerful person." Xiaolan said.
"Oh, brother Matsuda. Then look at the clues here." Meguru handed the music score to Matsuda in surprise.
Matsuda took it over and looked at it for three seconds, then went back, scratching his face and said, "This, if you ask the structure of the bomb, I can tell it in ten seconds, but music... I'd better ask professionals."
......Is this guy... really amazing? Everyone present doubted it.
Conan and the other three stayed up late, now the police arrived, relaxed and fell asleep. Megu had to call another person in charge at the scene, Mr. Kogoro, to cooperate with the investigation.
"You have to cooperate with our investigation and inquiries." Megu said to the sleepy and misty Kogoro. As he was talking, he accidentally lowered his head and saw Matsuda lying to where Kogoro originally slept, and shouted: "Matsuda! What are you doing!"
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Conan, Xiaolan, Seiji and Matsuda were yawning on the sofa at the end of the corridor.
"That place is indeed not suitable for sleeping." Conan complained and looked at Matsuda with contempt: "Why are you here?"
"Hey, little kid, please bring respect to the elders." Matsuda knocked Conan's head and stretched: "You still have some sleep, I've been tired for a day."
"Hehe." Conan laughed dryly in his heart: "Hey, uncle, can you not attend the inquiry?"
"Ha?" Matsuda waved his hand: "Don't be stupid. More than thirty people's questions are exhausted even if you think about it... Don't look at me with this expression. I trust the police department. I believe that he will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will he let a bad person go."
When Maori comes out and talks with Xiaolan and the others for a few words, then Dr. Chengshi asked: "What is my order?"
Kogoro said apologetically: "Although you are very tired, you are still in the back."
"Then I'll wash my face first." Cheng Shi said.
"How many people still need to ask?" Conan asked Kogoro.
"There are six people, including Dr. Seiji." Kogoro said.
"Ah? Then I'll go and have a look. If the police department doesn't see you, he will think I'm lazy." Matsuda stood up and said.
Haha, you are just lazy, okay? Conan is speechless.
When Matsuda entered the room, he saw Ken Nishimoto who was being asked inside didn't say anything, but he kept trembling, as if he was afraid of something.
There is something inside. Matsuda found a chair to sit down, crossed his legs, leaned on his chin with his right hand, and looked at Nishimoto with interest. Who is the murderer? It should be a man. But is there such a case? I have no impression at all.
However, it was true that Conan had been doing more than ten years ago. How could he remember such cases from more than ten years ago? Thinking of this, Matsuda smiled interestingly.
"I have no motivation to kill Mr. Kawashima. You have to ask when!" The village chief's daughter Reiko Kuroiwa said loudly to Memu.
Matsuda poured a glass of water for Miss Reiko, put it in front of her, and said with a smile: "After all, I'm dead, so try to cooperate with our work. This is just a common question, just to know if you noticed anything abnormal yesterday." Then he retreated and sat down, still in his brisk tone: "However, women are really a powerful creature, and they can make such sharp sounds for more than ten minutes."
Reinko, who was originally considerate and affectionate about Matsuda, suddenly shouted: "You can stop at this time! Don't be too much!!" The sound was so sharp that it ran through the entire citizen hall.
Frightened Memu glared at Matsuda: "Shut up, you're not talking without my order!"
"Ah?" Matsuda whispered: "Where is my human rights?"
Hum? Is this song? When Matsuda was bored, the light music started to play in the Citizens Hall.
"It's pretty good music." Matsuda praised easily, "Who played it?"
"Idiot! That's the moonlight." Megu was scolded by Matsuda.
Ah? When Matsuda heard that it was moonlight, he immediately ran out of the room. His reaction was so fast and his movements were so sharp that Memu was stunned again.
Following the sound, he ran to the second floor and happened to see Conan and Nishimoto at the door of the same room. Matsuda ran over and saw the corpse of the village chief Heiyan, with a knife inserted on his back.
Immediately afterwards, Memu and the others arrived and stopped Reiko who was about to enter the scene. Memu said, "Call the autopsy officers to come."
"Police officer, the autopsy went to Tokyo because of Mr. Kawashima's autopsy," said the village chief secretary Hirata.
"Damn it." Megu said: "At this time..."
"If possible, please let me do it." At this time, Dr. Chengshi stood up.
Haha~~ It feels really unpleasant to kill someone under my nose. Matsuda walked behind Conan, who was angry at the wall, kicked him, and said playfully: "Little kid, how many movements does Moonlight have in total?"
Conan was still angry, so he glared at Matsuda, and calmed down when he saw his eyes, and then calmly said: "Ah~~ There are three movements for each one."
"Three?" Matsuda glanced at Heiyan's body and said nothing.
