Chapter 172
Narumi Asagi, whose real name is Seiji, is actually the son of the pianist who passed away almost ten years ago. He is currently dressed as a woman.
Because he was in poor health from birth and had been recuperating in Tokyo, few people on Tsukikage Island knew him. At most, some people had heard of his name but didn't know how to spell it. In addition, so many years had passed, he had changed his adoptive parents' surnames, and his name was pronounced differently, so most people would not have guessed who he was.
Although he was young when his biological father, Keiji Aso, died, Aso Minami always felt that his father was not the kind of person who would commit suicide, let alone kill his wife and children as if he had gone mad before his death. Therefore, he had been thinking about this matter all these years, but before he was a child, he did not know where to start investigating.
Now that he has finally become a doctor, he can return incognito as a doctor. Last night, he went to the village chief of Guishan Village, who grew up with his father, to ask what exactly happened.
Unexpectedly, the village chief of Kameyama, feeling guilty, began to frantically mutter to himself after hearing that he was Aso Keiji's son, revealing the plot they had conspired to kill Aso Keiji.
It turns out that these people wanted his father to bring back some "goods" while he was performing abroad, but when they couldn't reach an agreement with him, they killed his family and then faked it as suicide!
Asagi was so shocked by the news yesterday that he couldn't even react. While he was processing the information, the village chief of Kameyama, feeling guilty, scared himself to death.
Asagi touched the piano donated by his father and felt that the death of the village chief of Guishan might be retribution. So he played his father's favorite "Moonlight Sonata" to send off the village chief of Guishan.
It was at this moment that he noticed Hirata and Akira approaching from outside the window, wanting to look inside, so he quickly slipped away.
Now that the hidden compartment of the piano has been discovered, Asagi Masami recalls the events of last night and suddenly realizes—no wonder Hirata Kazuaki came to the mansion in the middle of the night; it turns out he was there to conduct this kind of illegal transaction!
Because those words were not suitable to say in front of others, he followed the village chief of Guishan to the mansion, thinking that this person came to see the piano donated by his father in the middle of the night, and might still have feelings for his father, so he directly told the village chief his true identity... Fortunately, the village chief of Guishan scared himself to death.
However, if Hankawa Shinryu could spot Hirata Kazuaki's involvement in drug trafficking at a glance, did he also discover the problems within Hirata Kazuaki himself?
Asagi felt a little uneasy. He could explain the gender thing by saying it was a personal hobby, that he liked dressing up as a woman, but what if people knew he had been here last night...?
The village chief of Guishan Village was scared to death, so he probably won't be sentenced, right?
He can't go to jail yet! He only lost one enemy! There are still several others alive and well!
I wonder if Hirata Kazuaki will be able to implicate the others after he's arrested...
Asagi Minami thought a lot about it, but for Hagiwara Kenji, it was normal for Samikawa Shinryu to "know at a glance," so he simply gave a simple explanation and didn't think that the female doctor next to him had any questions.
Kenji Hagiwara simply remarked, "This time it's so fast... but I really need to come over. I wouldn't have discovered this problem over the phone."
The people from the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it's good that Hanchuan-kun was willing to come... The only question now is whether the deceased really died of cardiac arrest."
Asagi Shimizu was startled and quickly took out his autopsy report: "This is my report. If you don't believe it, you can have another forensic doctor examine it. The body is downstairs. Everyone is planning to hold the funeral at the mansion and invite people from the whole island... I asked the village chief's family, and they said he had heart disease before..."
He didn't touch the village chief of Guishan Village with a single finger. He has a clear conscience in this regard. No matter how many forensic doctors come, they all have heart failure!
Hanchuan Shenliu casually flipped through the report, then picked up the on-site report that the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department had obtained from the local police and studied it for a while before announcing, "It should just be cardiac arrest. There's no need to fake that. As for whether he did something wrong in the middle of the night and was scared by the slightest disturbance, or whether it was just a simple heart attack, it won't affect your work. You can interrogate Mr. Hirata directly."
The people in the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department think the same way.
The dead are no longer important; what matters is that there is still a living person who knows the truth, and that is the person who most needs to be interrogated!
Otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing to find out that it wasn't an accident and to overturn a colleague's already closed case. It's better to avoid trouble if possible.
Hirata Kazuaki was covered in cold sweat because the police had closed the case too easily. There was still a lot of foreign currency in his house that hadn't been dealt with. If they continued to investigate, they would really find nothing left... Damn it, why did the village chief of Kameyama suddenly die of fright?!
If the village chief of Guishan hadn't died, he wouldn't have attracted this group of people! And he wouldn't have been discovered!
Could it really be the ghost of Keiji Aso at work?
Although Hirata Kazuaki cooperated with the village chief of Kameyama, that was after Aso Keiji refused. He was completely unaware of Aso Keiji's situation and only thought that the other party was crazy. Now, he was afraid when he thought about how he had been secretly trading with the piano donated by this man.
Having resolved the issue with the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department, Usakabe Saiki abandoned the rest and walked out of the room.
Kenji Hagiwara stayed behind as usual to help clean up, while Asagi hesitated for a moment, feeling it was strange to be here with a group of police officers. Calculating the time, he figured that Shinryu Hachikawa should have already left the corridor, so he told the others and left the room as well.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Asagi turned around after leaving the house, he saw the dangerous policeman leaning against the wall, as if he had been waiting for him.
Asagi almost had a heart attack from the fright.
Was she waiting for him?! Did she know he would come out, and deliberately wait for him?!
So you really did discover something, didn't you?! But if you really did discover something, shouldn't you have said so while you were inside?
It's alright, don't be nervous. He didn't commit a crime; he was just dressed as a woman. As for the village chief being scared to death, that has nothing to do with him...
Of course, Usoya Saiki wasn't there to arrest Asagi.
The village chief was scared to death. If it was intentional to trigger a heart attack, that's another story. If it was just a coincidence, there was no need to create trouble for oneself.
But considering that the other person might commit murder in a few years, Bo Yezai casually asked, just to test his suspicion level: "Do you need help?"
Asagi was stunned for a moment, racking his brains to figure out what those words meant.
Did they discover his gender? Did they suspect he had ulterior motives? Or did they realize he was connected to the case? Or perhaps his acting was subpar, revealing some emotion and making him appear desperate for help?
This policeman seems very capable. If I told him, maybe those people who killed his father could really be caught... No, that's impossible now.
Nearly ten years ago, his house had already been burned down, and the evidence had certainly been disposed of. The village chief of Kameyama was also dead. If the remaining few people stubbornly refused to admit it, even the police couldn't do anything to them... Moreover, he had studied Japanese law. Even if his father, his mother, and his sister were killed because of these people's selfishness, they still wouldn't be sentenced to death.
Asagi Minoru, who just learned the true cause of her family member's death last night, is now in a state of rage and hatred.
He might calm down after a while, but right now he just wants the culprits to die. Even last night when he was playing the piano, he had already been thinking about how to kill them.
Even if the policeman discovered something, he hasn't done anything yet, and... since he chose to talk to him alone here instead of asking him directly in the room, the policeman probably didn't intend to expose him.
The policeman named Hanchuan Shenliu seemed different from those rigid policemen at first glance. He looked like an Italian mafia member who would support blood revenge... He might be arrested, but before that happens, they probably won't interfere with him.
Asagi bowed and said, "Thank you, but I don't need any help."
"Hmm." Bo Yezaki didn't try to persuade him. "Take care of yourself."
Just then, Kenji Hagiwara opened the door and came out. Seeing the two of them like this, he was a little surprised: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'm leaving."
Kenji Hagiwara became a little suspicious: "You didn't go and scare that young girl, did you?"
"...I just asked her if she needed any help."
Kenji Hagiwara believed him: "We can go back now. The organized crime countermeasures department still needs the car. We'll take the bus back to the beach to wait for the boat..."
Bo Yezhai readily agreed: "Okay."
The system couldn't help but ask: "Huh? You're just leaving like that? You know about Dr. Narumi's family situation, aren't you going to use this opportunity to make a move?"
"Too lazy to bother, they want to handle it themselves." Bo Yezhaiji said casually. "Those people are all rich; they could easily get probation by spending some money. Arresting them is useless. To let him vent his anger, someone has to die. If it were me, I wouldn't accept that either."
"...You're really not cut out to be a police officer."
Usakabe Saiki laughed: "Did you just find out? We weren't compatible in our past lives, so now that you're completely letting loose, it's even less compatible."
The system suddenly realized: "Oh right, someone said before that you were definitely going to go astray."
Those who would say I'm bound to go astray wouldn't even consider me becoming a police officer.
Usakabe Saiki casually remarked, "However, my background was never suited to be a police officer from the start, so it would be surprising if anyone felt regretful about it."
system:【……? ? ? 】
No, what exactly happened in your past life?!
--------------------
Usoppon definitely supports blood revenge. If he were in Morofushi Kagemitsu's shoes, let alone rescuing the murderer, he would have hailed himself a saint even without adding fuel to the fire.
In addition to Japan's outrageous death penalty
Therefore, he understands Dr. Cheng Shi very well.
Of course, we are different from Japan; we must abide by the law!
.
So Conan will still encounter Dr. Narumi, and as for some changes... I'll write about that later.
Although I think Conan would have matured even without this case, it definitely made him much more rational.
