A Sorcerer in the Detective World

Chapter 54 Reality, Knight or Demon is Your Choice

On the ferry from Tsukage Island to Tokyo.

It was early in the morning, the weather was fine, and the sea breeze was blowing with a salty smell.

Uncle Mao Li, Xiao Lan, Conan, and Shu Yunwen were all standing on the deck, leaning against the railing. Xiaolan and Conan both looked indifferent, looking at the seemingly endless ocean in the distance, they didn't know what they were thinking.

As for Uncle Mao Li, he looked a little downcast; Shu Yunwen also looked into the distance with a smile on his face.

"Ahhhhhhh~~" Uncle Mao Li sneezed again.

Xiao Lan turned to look at Uncle Mao Li: "Dad, you don't have a cold again, do you?"

Uncle Mori immediately waved his fists: "Idiot! I am the famous detective Mori Kogoro, how could I catch a cold?!"

Xiaolan rolled her eyes——

Does being a detective have anything to do with not having a cold?

"You'd better pay attention to your body! It's a bunch of old bones. If you fall ill, be careful that I will pick you up!" Xiaolan threatened.

Uncle Mao Li said: "Hey! Is this what you should say as a daughter?"

"Huh!" Xiaolan snorted softly, heard a voice from the other side of the ferry, looked over, and immediately let out an "ah".

"Huh? What's the matter? Xiaolan?" Uncle Maori asked.

Xiaolan retracted her eyes, shook her head, and said with a forced smile: "It's nothing! It's just that woman over there, her back looks very similar to Dr. Chengshi..."

As soon as Xiaolan finished speaking, Shu Yunwen, Conan, and Uncle Mao Li all turned their heads to look over.

Sure enough, on the other side of the ferry, a woman in tight black clothes was talking with her friend. If you just look at it from behind, the slender figure has a similar height and hairstyle, it is indeed like seeing another Doctor Chengshi.

"Idiot... It is certain that Dr. Chengshi is dead. It was in the fire he ignited last night. The forensic personnel compared the traces of dental treatment and DNA of the deceased. The dead It's Doctor Chengshi, that's right." When Uncle Mao Li was speaking, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit one for himself.

Don't look at Uncle Maori's superficial indifference. In fact, the death of Dr. Cheng Shi still touched him deeply.

Although what Dr. Cheng Shi committed was killing three people in a row, but if it is true, he is nothing more than a sad and pitiful person. Moreover, Dr. Chengshi committed three murders and has been convicted by the police.

Dr. Chengshi himself left three pieces of evidence in the Yueying Island clinic, which only the murderer can get from the deceased. The first one is a button-sized cloth head from Hideo Kawashima’s shirt before his death; the second one is a handkerchief stained with the blood of the head of Heiyan Village; The cause of Jian's death can be determined to be poisoning.

In order to make Nishimoto Ken's death slower, Dr. Chengshi sprayed aconitine into Nishimoto Ken's mouth instead of injecting it directly into his body.

Moreover, in the subsequent search, the police also found more than a dozen missing newspapers from Dr. Cheng Shi's office. The police took the two entrustment letters from Shu Yunwen and Uncle Mao Li. After comparing them one by one, the police determined that it was also Dr. Cheng Shi who sent them the entrustment letters. As for the specific intention, the police have not yet analyzed it...

"Father! You idiot! Idiot! Idiot!" Xiao Lan scolded Uncle Mao Li several times.

Uncle Mao Li took a deep puff of his cigarette and didn't bother to pay attention. Uncle Mao Li looked at Shu Yunwen again and said, "By the way, Yun Wensang, I heard that the list of all the participants in the drug trafficking syndicate in the hands of Police Officer Mu Mu is the one that you rely on. Clues, deduction? Tsk tsk, that's really amazing. Unexpectedly, Officer Mumu and the others would solve such a big case on Moon Shadow Island this time..."

"Dad! Didn't Officer Meguro say,

This matter has to be kept secret! "Xiao Lan tugged at Uncle Mao Li.

Uncle Mao Li was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head: "Hahaha~ That's right... By the way, I'm a little thirsty, I'm going to drink something, see you later!"

"Drink?" Xiaolan suddenly thought of a drink, "Dad! Aren't you going to a bar? Really! It's morning! It's early in the morning, and I still drink on the boat. If there is too much, I can Don't care about you!"

"Hahaha...Of course I won't drink early in the morning..." Uncle Mao Li quickly explained.

Xiaolan said loudly: "Are there not many examples of you getting drunk in the morning? No, I have to watch you!"

"Hey, your daughter, really..."

Uncle Mao Li and Xiao Lan walked away, and Conan stood beside Shu Yunwen, and suddenly said, "Hey, you should have known that Dr. Cheng Shi was the murderer, right?"

"Huh?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then said casually, "How is it possible?"

How could he admit such a thing!

"Don't you know?" Conan suddenly sat down, leaning against the guardrail a little disappointed.

Conan now believes that Shu Yunwen is a better detective than him, otherwise there is no way to always be one step ahead of him and deduce who the murderer is.

However, Shu Yunwen did not admit that he had already discovered that the murderer was Dr. Cheng Shi, and Conan did not have much doubt.

After all, in the two murder cases of Hideo Kawashima and village chief Heiyan, except for the two sheet music, there was no useful evidence left at the scene, but each pointed the murderer in other directions. If Conan hadn't deciphered the meaning of the music score, even if the police finally suspected Dr. Chengshi, it would be useless.

Since he found nothing in the washing machine, if Shu Yunwen really found something, the washing machine doesn't believe it~

"Your reasoning ability is obviously much better than mine. If, if we could find out that Dr. Chengshi is the murderer earlier, maybe not so many people will die, and Dr. Chengshi will not commit suicide in the end..." Conan muttering.

Shu Yunwen smiled: "Dr. Chengshi's suicide really shouldn't be. However, even if people like Kawashima Hideo, Heiyan Village Chief, and Nishimoto Ken were killed, I didn't feel much... Damn it!"

"If a person commits a crime, whether he deserves to die or not is determined only by the law, not by someone." Conan rolled his eyes at Shu Yunwen, "If a detective easily lets his rationality be overwhelmed by emotions If left or right, the content of the reasoning may be distorted~"

"I've said it a long time ago, I'm not a detective, I'm an exorcist!" Shu Yunwen emphasized his profession.

Conan said: "Come on, you are just a guy who relies on your powerful reasoning ability to pretend to have some psychic ability. In fact, you are just a clever liar. However, the idea is that you can help others solve the problem. I won't expose your troubles..."

Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes - I am too lazy to continue talking to you!

After a pause, Conan continued: "Speaking of which, when I saw the two entrustment letters, I realized that there was a problem. Those two entrustment letters, to me at the time, felt like a murder notice. If , if we can deduce earlier that Dr. Chengshi is the one who sent us the entrustment letter, maybe we can prevent all this from happening."

Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, sighed, and then nodded: "Yes..."

In an instant, the contents of those two entrustment letters appeared in Shu Yunwen's mind again.

"Dear Yunwen-sama: My humble Aso Keiji, the evil spirit everyone calls evil spirits will take the souls of evil people. If there is a powerful spiritual master, please purify all evil spirits. The evil spirit Aso Keiji."

"Mr. Detective Mori: On the night of the next full moon, on Moon Shadow Island, shadows will start to disappear again. Please go and investigate the reason. Keiji Aso."

When Conan first saw the two entrustment letters, it just felt like a murder notice.

But Shu Yunwen is different.

From the very beginning, he knew that Dr. Chengshi was the one who sent the letter, and he had murderous intentions. Therefore, he could feel the struggle in Dr. Chengshi's heart from the two entrustment letters.

Just like what he analyzed before.

The entrustment letter sent to him was the evil side full of murderous intentions; the entrustment letter sent to Uncle Maori was his kind side, hoping that someone would stop him from killing.

At the beginning, Shu Yunwen only thought that Doctor Cheng Shi wanted to kill people, but he was afraid of being exposed, so he asked Shu Yunwen to help him destroy the "souls of evil people", so he agreed and helped Doctor Cheng Shi wipe out the "souls of evil people". evidence.

However, Shu Yunwen never expected that Dr. Cheng Shi had actually made up his mind from the moment he decided to kill someone. After taking revenge, he would also destroy himself.

Just like the contents of the entrustment letter he sent to Shu Yunwen.

"...If there is a powerful spirit remover, please purify all evil spirits..."

The evil spirits among them are not only Hideo Kawashima, Tatsuji Kuroiwa, and Takeshi Nishimoto who were killed by him, but also himself.

When he killed these enemies, in Doctor Chengshi's heart, he himself had become an evil spirit, the kind that needed to be purified. So, he chose to kill himself...

The two were silent with each other. After a while, Shu Yunwen suddenly said: "By the way, there are no footprints on the beach, and there are two haunted puzzles in the radio room. Have you solved it yet?"

"Not yet." Conan shook his head bitterly.

Now that the murderer of the serial murders on Yueying Island is dead, and with the key evidence left by Dr. Chengshi himself, the police probably will not continue to investigate these two strange methods, but will directly close the case.

These two puzzles have really become the unsolved mysteries in Conan's heart.

Shu Yunwen chuckled, and then said triumphantly: "Little devil, I have solved the riddle that there are no footprints on the beach~"

Conan's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Tell me, how did you do that!"

"Actually, it's a rope~" Shu Yunwen said with a smile, "The murderer set up a mechanism in advance, first fixed two ropes in the sea, then dragged them into the piano room, and fixed them on the door frame leading to the sea Then, the murderer only needs to knock Hideo Kawashima unconscious indoors, then climb into the sea along the rope, drown Hideo Kawashima, climb into the piano room again along the rope, and untie the fixed rope Just throw it into the sea. In this way, of course there will be no footprints on the beach~"

This is what Shu Yunwen racked his brains to come up with. If this method is used, it is possible not to leave footprints on the beach without relying on Shu Yunwen's supernatural means?

"Huh?" After listening to Shu Yunwen's words, Conan Xiaogui had a cute expression on his face, "Brother Yunwen, is this the cracking method you said?"

"Um."

"But, it's impossible for you to do this, okay?" Conan's expression was helpless and contemptuous, "Tell me how to fix the two fixed ropes so that Mr. Kawashima Hideo won't find out. , and can also support the weight of Dr. Chengshi and Mr. Hideo Kawashima, so that they can crawl back and forth in the sea? Moreover, since the rope is fixed, it will definitely leave marks on the scene? Like scratches and Traces of ropes and the like. In fact, after the incident, I have carefully inspected the scene. I have carefully observed the door frame, window frame above the door, including the window, and there is no abnormal trace at all..."

"ah?"

Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then thought...that's right.

Damn! How come I can see so many flaws so easily in the eyes of this little ghost?

This little devil is getting more and more impatient~

...

In front of the Maori Detective Agency.

Uncle Mao Li, Xiao Lan, and Conan got out of the car one by one, and thanked Shu Yunwen and Matsushita Heisaburo who was driving: "Thank you for sending us back. It really troubled you."

"Where is it, you are too polite..."

After a few polite words from several people, the car moved forward again, and Heisaburo Matsushita asked, "Master Yunwen, where are you going to drive now? Are you going to the office?"

"No, I have other things to do today, so I won't go to the office, just go home." Shu Yunwen ordered casually, with a smile on his face.

Matsushita Heisaburo asked with a smile: "Master Yunwen, you seem to be in a good mood?"

"Well, it's not bad."

While the two were chatting, the car drove to Shu Yunwen's villa.

After saying goodbye to Matsushita Heisaburo, Shu Yunwen entered the house, first pressed the answering machine, and listened to the message on the answering machine.

There are four messages in total, two are from Tsukamoto Suumi, and the other two are from Kojima Mie. The general content is to ask about Shu Yunwen's situation. Although he had greeted Sumi Tsukamoto and the others before going to Tsukage Island, it was still two days since he lost contact. In addition, today is Monday, and he didn't go to school...

Shu Yunwen first returned the calls to Sumi Tsukamoto and Mie Kojima respectively, then closed the door of the villa tightly, walked up to the second floor, and pushed away the bedroom of her parents. In the bedroom, because the curtains were drawn, the sunlight could not come in, and it looked a bit gloomy.

Shu Yunwen walked to the window, looked at the "Punishment of Heaven" hanging on the wall, with a smile on his lips, reached out his hand and took out a soul ball with green phosphorescent surface from his pocket, chanted a witch spell, and then Then he saw the soul ball suddenly inflate, and a green flame seemed to appear in the bedroom out of thin air.

In the air, the green flames slowly dissipated, and a transparent figure floated in the air. It opened and closed its mouth twice, but did not make any sound.

"Although you survived the fire and became a one-in-a-million fire ghost, you are still just a newborn ghost after all. If you want to make a sound, you must at least reach the level of a ghost general .But..."

Shu Yunwen shook his head.

In this day and age, a newborn ghost wants to grow into a ghost general... What the hell? Don't just say this kind of prehistoric mission, okay~

The figure in the sky smiled.

Shu Yunwen continued: "...Although you are a fire ghost, in today's environment, if you don't have a good hiding place and don't devour people's souls, you can last for more than ten years at most. You have to dissipate...Speaking of which, your luck is really good, my witch weapon can just let you hide. The witch weapon can hold two soul bodies in total, and the knight on the portrait is still a demon..."

"...Chengshi, let you choose!"

PS: Well... I'll be waiting for you here... The hypocrite who escaped from the flames, please help me~ la la la ~

PS2: It seems that some readers have guessed it first... Well, you are amazing.

PS3: As for whether Chengshi will be a knight or a devil, you guys can guess and guess and guess~ I won’t say anyway~

PS4: Starting tomorrow, it should be replaced with a small chapter of 2,000 words. Hmm, of course, correspondingly, the plot will be more compact (water). Why? Who typed the words in the brackets?

PS5: I can't open the new book today on Wednesday, so let's open it on Saturday. It takes longer to prepare...
