Hirata Kazuaki came over and said, "This police officer Megure, I have also been staying on this floor since six o'clock."

"Then do you have any witnesses?"

"You should all know." Hirata Kazuaki turned around and asked everyone for help: "I was here at that time."

Masato Shimizu waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I went to the bathroom around 06:30."

Chapter 43 Cracked sheet music

"Then, Mr. Nishimoto."

Officer Megure walked up to Nishimoto Gym and said, "Although you are the first person to find Mr. Heiyan's body, what are you doing in that kind of place? It's suspicious."

"Heiyan told me to go there!" Nishimoto Ken said, waving his arms.

Mori Kogoro snorted coldly, and said loudly: "He told you to go over, so you go and kill him, right?"

"No!" Reiko Kuroiwa came over and said, "It's Shimizu, the candidate for the village head election. If my father and Kawashima weren't there, the village head would have been Mr. Shimizu's."

"Bullshit!"

While Reiko Heiyan was arguing with Masato Shimizu, Xie Chen looked at the notebook with the score in his hand expressionlessly.

"Xie Chen, what are you looking at?" Mao Lilan asked.

Xie Chen said without raising his head: "I'm looking at the music score left by the murderer at the murder scene. I think it must be a code left by the murderer. What kind of connection may this rising mark have with the falling mark?"

Mao Lilan leaned down, looked at the notebook in Xie Chen's hand and said, "In terms of piano, it refers to the black keyboard."

"keyboard……"

Lingzi Heiyan started to yell again, "Hurry up and arrest this murderous demon king, if you don't arrest him, there will be another victim!"

"Understood?" Xie Chen suddenly said loudly, "You will be next."

"Xie Chen?"

The noise stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes turned to Xie Chen.

"This code is very simple if you know the trick. Put the English letters in order from the left side of the piano keyboard, and then write the message you want to convey on the music score in pinyin."

Although it was a child's voice, its tone had a calmness that no adult could match.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by this child who seemed to be only seven or eight years old. Although Police Officer Mumu and the others knew that Xie Chen was different from children of the same age, they still seemed a little surprised at this moment.

Ignoring everyone's surprised gazes, Xie Chen continued: "Based on this clue, reading the music score at the scene where Mr. Kawashima was killed, it becomes, understand, you will be next."

"You are amazing, Xie Chen." Mao Lilan praised.

Police officer Meguro hadn't come to his senses yet, Kogoro Mori hurriedly asked: "So, what about the music score written with blood just now?"

"This..." Xie Chen thought for a while, and then said like the one who read the words: "The resentment of sins is eliminated here."

As soon as Xie Chen finished speaking, several suspects took a breath at the same time.

Qing Shuizheng said: "Could it be that the resentment of sin is..."

Kuroiwa Reiko said: "The pianist who set himself on fire 12 years ago..."

Takeshi Nishimoto said with trembling lips: "It's that guy, Keiji Aso is still alive!"

"He is indeed dead." The elderly policeman opened the door and walked in. "The bones and tooth patterns found at the fire scene have also been compared. It is absolutely true that they belong to their family."

The old policeman walked into the hall and continued: "At that time, everything was burned, except for the music scores in the fireproof safe."

"Music score?" Mori Kogoro asked immediately: "Where! Where are the scores now?"

The elderly policeman said: "It's in the warehouse of the public hall, but the key to the warehouse is in the police station."

Officer Mu Mu suddenly said loudly: "Then why don't you go and get it quickly! Go!"

"Yes!"

The elderly police officer ran out quickly, and Xie Chen followed closely after seeing this.

On the way, Xie Chen asked: "Did Mr. Aso really set fire to the family by himself?"

The elderly policeman raised his head and said, "Because four witnesses saw it, the former village chief, Mr. Kameyama, and village chief Heiyan, Mr. Nishimoto, and Mr. Kawashima."

"What's the relationship between those four people?"

"Including Mr. Aso, the five of them have grown up together since childhood."

Xie Chen thought for a while, and then continued to ask: "Where's the man named Murasawa Monday?"

"That guy came to this island suddenly three years ago. A few days ago, he finally got engaged to the village chief's daughter, but the village chief has always opposed it."

"What about the village chief's secretary, Hirata?"

"That man is a cowardly and cowardly person, and it is unlikely that he would do such a vicious act, but I often see him sneaking around with Mr. Kawashima in the public hall."

"How is Mr. Shimizu?"

"He has a strong sense of justice and is loved by fishermen. Do you have anything else to ask, little brother detective."

"No more." Xie Chen said with a smile.

After the two arrived at the police station, the elderly police searched through boxes and cabinets for an hour before finding the key.
