Mori Kogoro receives a strange letter of entrustment from a client named Keiji Aso, asking Mori Kogoro to go to Moonshadow Island to investigate the "Shadow Disappearing on the Night of the Full Moon", and to pay a large amount of money to his account.

"Really, how could anyone do such a thing. Mori Kogoro on the boat to Moon Shadow Island was still complaining, "If it weren't for that large commission fee, who would want to go to that kind of remote island!"

Although Mori Kogoro was not very happy, Ran was still happy to come out and play. As for the detective, it didn't matter, but he was actually a little interested in that strange letter of entrustment.

After getting off the boat, Conan and the three decided to enter the village first to find the client, Keiji Aso. Conan was looking around, but he didn't expect to accidentally see an acquaintance, and it happened that Xiaolan also saw it.

"That'...... Teacher Lu Jiu?" Xiaolan said in surprise.

I saw that the young man in the light-colored coat seemed to be talking to the villagers about something, and then after saying goodbye to the other party, he turned his head and saw Xiaolan too. He paused and walked quickly in Xiaolan's direction.

"Maori-san, are you here too?" Lu Xiangxi was slightly surprised, and then looked at Conan, "Eh, this little brother...... "

Oh no! Teacher Lu Jiu saw me in the amusement park! Conan secretly said in his heart that it was not good, if the other party said something about the amusement park, it was hard to guarantee that Xiaolan would not suspect it.

Xiaolan naturally didn't notice Conan's weakness, and introduced to Lu Xiangxi with a smile: "Oh, this is the child who lives in my house temporarily, Edogawa Conan." This is my dad, Kogoro Maori. Dad, this is my school's Chinese teacher, Lu Jiu teacher.

Maori Kogoro was still thinking about the relationship between his baby daughter and this good-looking boy, but when he heard that the other party was a teacher, he immediately became serious, straightened his tie and stretched out his hand and said, "Cough, hello, teacher." I'm Ran's father, Kogoro Maori.

Lu Xiangxi also stretched out his hand to shake it back: "Hello, Mr. Maori." Ah, you must be a Maori detective who has become very famous lately, right?"

"Ahaha, it's me, I'm me, am I so famous? Even the school teacher knows!" Mori Kogoro couldn't help but reveal his image when he heard someone say this.

Conan twitched the corners of his mouth secretly, thinking to himself, sure enough, Uncle Maori is still serious for only three seconds, but how could Mr. Lu Jiu also come to this Moon Shadow Island?"

"That's mainly because I'm actually still a writer, and I've been writing mystery novels lately, so I'm more concerned about famous detectives like you." Lu Xiangxi complimented.

"Now, Brother Lu Jiu, what are you doing on Moon Shadow Island?" Conan asked innocently.

Lu Xiangxi turned his head to look at Conan, squatted down slightly, and said, "I'm here to find inspiration! I heard that there are some horror legends on this island, so I specially came to investigate, and I plan to use it as material for later novels." This

reason is very reasonable, and Conan did not doubt it at all.

"By the way, I haven't asked Maori classmates if they're here to play?" Lu Xiangxi asked as if he didn't know at all.

Xiaolan shook her head: "It's not all, it's mainly because Dad received a commission that asked us to come to Moon Shadow Island to investigate a strange legend."

Lu Xiangxi's eyes lit up and he looked interested, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen a real detective job, can you let me learn from Mr. Maori together? Lu

Xiangxi said this modestly and held Maori Kogoro very high, how could Maori Kogoro have a reason not to agree? Perhaps, the other party would write his heroic appearance into the book

......!" Naturally, yes. Mori Kogoro nodded.

Lu Xiangxi was very happy and positive, and asked, "So, Mr. Maori, what are we going to investigate next?" I've been here for a few days, and I'm still familiar with the road on the island, so I can lead the way." "

Yes, then it's going to trouble Mr. Lujiu, and we're going to go to Keiji Aso first, because he's my client."

After Maori Kogoro finished saying this, he didn't hear Lu Xiangxi's reply, but saw his face a little weird.

"Brother Lu Jiu, what's wrong?" Conan asked, tilting his head.

Lu Xiangxi hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Maori, are you sure it was the letter of entrustment that Keiji Aso sent you?" Maori

Kogoro looked puzzled: "Yes, his letter of entrustment said so, and he also remitted a large amount of entrustment fees to me!" As he spoke, he took out the letter of entrustment and handed it to Lu Xiangxi.

After Lu Xiangxi looked at it, he said quietly: "But this is simply impossible." Because Keiji Aso died early, 12 years ago.

Conan and the three of them were shocked when they heard this, the client was already dead, and he had been dead for more than ten years! Who sent the letter of entrustment

?" Brother Lu Jiu, what the hell is going on?" Conan realized that this commission was not as simple as it seemed.

Lu Xiangxi sighed and told the story of Keiji Aso: "He set himself on fire twelve years ago, so it is impossible to send a letter of entrustment to you." Therefore, it is likely that this letter was sent to you by someone with another purpose. Of course, there is also a small possibility that Aso did not die at all twenty-two years ago. "

But this is basically impossible, if Keiji Aso is not dead, then he is the murderer of his wife and daughter, he should go into hiding, and it is impossible to send a letter of entrustment to make the detective suspect that he is still alive.

"If you want to know better, you can also ask the village chief here, Kuroiwa Tatsuji. Lu Xiangxi said, "Moon Shadow Island is just going to hold a memorial for the previous village head, Isamu Kameyama, so the village chief should be at the Civic Hall. I'll take you there.

Lu Xiangxi took Conan and the three of them to the public hall, and on the way, they happened to pass by the Moon Shadow Island clinic where Asai Narumi was located, and Asai Narumi happened to be sending a child.

"Ms. Asai. Lu Xiangxi said hello to Asai Narumi.

Asai Narumi also nodded at him: "It's Mr. Lu Jiu." He looked at the three Conan next to Lu Xiangxi again, "Are these three friends of Mr. Lu Jiu?" "

This is my student Mao Lilan, and her father, Detective Mori Kogoro, and her younger brother Edogawa Conan. Lu Xiangxi introduced in turn, "This is the doctor on the island, Miss Narumi Asai."

"Hello, are you all from Tokyo?" said Asai excitedly, "I was born in Tokyo too!" But I think it's nice here, right? The air is fresh, the environment is beautiful, and it's very quiet and comfortable......

as he said when a car with a horn passed by—"Shimizu!

"Hehe, this ...... It was just an accident. Asai Narumi said, "Recently, a general election for the head of the village is being held on the island, and the one who is the representative of the fishermen, Masato Shimizu, the current village chief who has lost his reputation, Tatsuji Kuroiwa, and Hideo Kawashima, the industrialist on the island who has the most supporters, are all candidates for election this time.

Lu Xiangxi thought, no wonder Kuroyan Chenji was in a hurry to kill his competitors, it was difficult for him to compete with the other two opponents in his current situation, and if he lost, he would not be able to do it as the Earth Emperor of Moon Shadow Island.

After saying goodbye to Asai Chengshi, Lu Xiangxi took Conan and them to the public hall, and the reception staff arranged them to the reception room, and then said that he was going to inform Kuroiwa Tatsuji and asked them to wait.

Next door to the reception room is the piano room, and the Grim Reaper elementary school students are always the first to discover this kind of place that will become the scene of crime in the future. He pushed open the door and looked to see only a dusty piano inside.

"Conan, you can't just run around. Xiaolan hurriedly followed up in the piano room.

Conan wanted to see the piano, but before he could touch it, he was pulled by Lu Xiangxi, and he lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "Don't move, this is the cursed piano."

"Eh, cursed ...... Piano?" Xiaolan couldn't help but take a step back.

It is said that the former village chief Kameyama died in front of this piano three years ago, and the song "Moonlight" was still playing in the piano room at that time. This piano was used by Keiji Aso before his death. In the time that followed, "Moonlight" would be remembered from time to time in the piano room. Lu Xiangxi deliberately told the story in an eerie tone, "This is the legend of the moonlight curse that I came to investigate this time."

As he was talking, Hirata and Ming, who came to find them, found that Lu Xiangxi and the four of them were actually in the piano room, and they were shocked and invited them out, obviously secretive about this cursed place.

"There will be a memorial ceremony just around the corner, so please wait outside the entrance for a while. Hirata said.

"Eh, are you still here?" At this time, Asai Narumi also came dressed in black, and next to him was a tall man.

Xiaolan was puzzled: "Miss Asai is this?" "

When Mr. Kameyama had an accident before, it happened to be an autopsy that I did, so I wanted to come and take a stick of incense." Asai Narumi said as he introduced the man next to him, "By the way, this is Mr. Masato Shimizu."

Conan and the three of them decided to wait for Kuroiwa Chenji outside the public hall, and at this time Lu Xiangxi's mobile phone rang, he turned off the phone and said, "I'm really sorry, it's time to write a manuscript, I'll definitely be lazy if I don't set a fixed point."

Conan subconsciously glanced at his watch, it was six o'clock in the evening.

"If nothing else, the ritual will be over in an hour, and when you and the Black Rock Village Chief are done talking, I'll take the three of you to eat some snacks on Moon Shadow Island. Lu Xiangxi said.

"Teacher Lu Jiu is going to get busy. Xiaolan hurriedly said, "It's really troublesome for Teacher Lu Jiu to run with us for so long in the afternoon."

Lu Xiangxi left the public hall from the main entrance, looked around, and then slowly walked into the path next to the public hall, which led to the seaside, that is, behind the piano room.

Half an hour after the ceremony began, Narumi Asai dragged Hideo Kawashima, who had been knocked unconscious by him, out of the back of the piano room, to the beach, and pressed his head into the sea.

He watched Hideo Kawashima struggle with an expressionless face, the strength in his hands was getting bigger and bigger, he knew that after killing this person, he would have no way back, but Asai Narumi did not regret it.

A murder is going on, and in the darkness there is a pair of eyes silently watching the murder, and there are no waves in the reddish-brown pupils, as if they are just watching an inconsequential performance.

Hideo Kawashima stopped struggling, and Narumi Asai dragged him back to the piano room, and the resurgence of the sea water cleared all his footprints.

Under the moonlight, Lu Xiangxi came out of the darkness, and he looked at the full moon in the sky.

"Player, you just look at it and don't do something

?" Lu Xiangxi tilted his head: "What do you think, what should I do

?" "Why don't you help Asai Chengmi deal with the flaws or something?" 088 said.

Lu Xiangxi shook his head: "The first person, it's not necessary." He's doing a pretty good job.

"And how do you complete your side quest

?" "You forgot that I still have a mission assigned by the organization." Help Kuroiwa Tatsuji eliminate the competitors. And, deal with drug trafficking. Lu Xiangxi said and scooped up Hideo Kawashima's coat floating on the sea, took out a small bag of white powder from his pocket and soaked it in the seawater, and then put it in the inner pocket of Hideo Kawashima's coat, and said that he threw it on the beach, making sure that the sea water would not take his coat away when the tide returned, "Kuroiwa's rival Masato Shimizu is not on the murder list of Narumi Asai." I'll prepare easter eggs for the detectives. Half

an hour later, "Moonlight" sounded, and everyone found Hideo Kawashima dead in the piano room. Thirty-eight people in the house are suspected of killing Hideo Kawashima.

"Huh, that's ...... What's wrong?" Lu Xiangxi looked at the group of people gathered in the piano room with a curious look.

Conan focused on the corpse, so he didn't pay attention to Lu Xiangxi's arrival, but Xiaolan said, "Teacher Lu Jiu? It's Mr. Kawashima...... Something went wrong. Maori

Kogoro asked Xiaolan to inform the police, and Lu Xiangxi said to go with Xiaolan, because the old policeman on the island was not easy to find.

"Mori-san, I haven't seen Kudo-san in class several times. Do you know what's going on?" Lu Xiangxi asked as if unintentionally.

Speaking of Kudo Shinichi, Xiaolan's eyes darkened: "I don't know very well, he seems to be entangled in some case." Even I had a hard time getting in touch with him.

"I see. Lu Xiangxi comforted Xiaolan a few words, as if she was an empathetic teacher. I don't know, I really think Lu Xiangxi is a good teacher, but I don't know that this teacher is an accomplice of the villain who persecuted high school students.

"Player, you really interpret this sentence, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, this sentence. When

Lu Xiangxi took Xiaolan and pulled the old policeman on the island back to the scene of the crime, it was already more than ten minutes later.

The only policeman on the island, and he looks old and dizzy, and he doesn't look like he can solve crimes. Maori Kogoro had to call the police again, but it was too late for the police to go out to sea at night, so he said that he would arrive early tomorrow morning, so please be sure to protect the scene.

Lu Xiangxi and Conan left the public hall together with Asai Narumi to go back, but Asai Narumi took the opposite route and separated at the intersection.

Conan had been thinking about the case until he suddenly thought of the contents of the letter of entrustment and realized that the murder was not over but beginning. After he told the story, Mori Kogoro immediately ran back, intending to leave the body behind.

"Sister Xiaolan, let's go to the public hall too. Conan said.

At this time, Lu Xiangxi lowered his head and said with a smile: "Conan, are you so bold that you are not afraid?

Conan's face froze, he almost forgot that he was a child, and there was a teacher Lu Jiu by their side, so they couldn't show any flaws

......!" I'm just a little curious! And I'm worried about whether Uncle Maori won't be safe alone.

Hearing Conan say this, Xiaolan couldn't help but see the direction of the public hall.

"That's right, Maori-san, let's go over together. "
