Chapter 339 If the ocean is destined to break its banks, let all the bitterness flow into my heart!

"Inspector Megure, you can just wake up Uncle Mori in a bit, he's been sleeping all night."

Conan yawned and handed the sheet music that Kogoro Mouri was protecting to Inspector Megure.

"Uncle Mori suspects that this sheet music might be a clue left to us by the murderer. There is a section in the music that is indeed different from the original score. Inspector Megure, you can investigate this matter thoroughly."

When Conan handed him the sheet music, Inspector Megure nodded, "Okay, I understand."

He then glanced at Uncle Mori, who was lying sprawled on the ground fast asleep, and his eye twitched.

This good-for-nothing.

"Are you all guarding the scene all night? It must be so hard on you guys... Why don't you pack up your bedding over there and rest for a bit?" Inspector Megure turned around and suggested to Wang Changsheng and Conan.

Everyone nodded, then carried the bedding out and placed it on the ground, trying not to interfere with the police officers' work in the music room.

In fact, they were just planning to take a short nap.

After all, he will likely be subjected to a lengthy questioning by the police soon.

It's really not good without energy.

Conan exchanged a few more words with Inspector Megure before going to bed.

Wang Changsheng wasn't actually that sleepy.

After all, his body was constantly being cleansed by magic, and the World Tree also replenished him with a lot of energy.

So even if he stays up all night for several nights in a row, it's not a big problem for him.

At worst, I can just eat a magic fruit and drink some magic spring water, and my energy will be replenished quickly.

Therefore, after Conan and Ran had fallen asleep, Wang Changsheng stood up and bid farewell to Inspector Megure.

"Officer, my friends must be very worried about me. If you're investigating here, can I go back to the guesthouse first?"

Upon hearing Wang Changsheng's words, Inspector Megure, who was assigning tasks to his subordinates, paused for a moment. He then instructed the last cop to go and do the work as well, before turning around and saying, "Of course, but young Changsheng, I'm afraid I don't have many people to take you there. It wouldn't be good for you to go back by yourself, would it?"

"It's alright, Inspector Megure. I'll have my butler come with me." Wang Changsheng pointed to Reigen Arataka, who was about to lie down.

Unlike Wang Changsheng, who possesses magical powers that allow him to stay up all night without restraint, he doesn't.

I'm already getting on in years, and I can't endure as much as I did when I was younger.

He's been braving all the hardships to get here, and he's been working non-stop all day. To be honest, Reigen Arataka is exhausted now.

But when his current "young master" called out to him, Reigen Arataka, who was just about to lie down on the bed, suddenly sat up straight again.

"_(′?`」∠)_ Yes, yes, I'll be with our young master." His expression looked somewhat bitter.

Wang Changsheng had never understood how to make a bitter smile, but now he was starting to get the hang of it.

"Well, in that case, you should go back and rest for a while. If needed, I'll send officers to fetch you."

Inspector Megure clearly noticed the child's butler, who had originally intended to go to sleep.

Although he felt some sympathy, he couldn't interfere too much with their decision, so he could only nod and tell them to go back and rest.

"Thank you, Inspector Megure." Wang Changsheng thanked Inspector Megure, and then ran out with Reigen Arataka in a flash.

This is one of the advantages of bringing an adult along.

If he comes alone, no matter what he does, people will think that it's unsafe for a small child.

But with someone specifically assigned to take care of him, the others wouldn't think anything of it.

"Why are we going back now? I'm so sleepy..." Reigen Arataka yawned deeply.

He took the bottle of mineral water that Wang Changsheng casually handed him, unscrewed the cap, and gulped down two mouthfuls.

However, the next moment, his eyes lit up and he quickly looked down at the water bottle in his hand.

"This, this water..."

"It's water with magical properties. After you drink it, your energy should be almost fully restored," Wang Changsheng casually explained. "I don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of police officers while I'm sleeping."

If he were to sleep there like Conan and the others, with a bunch of people walking around, Wang Changsheng wouldn't be used to it, nor would he like it.

Moreover, Sakura must be very worried about his situation, so he thought it would be better to go back first and tell Sakura and Tomoyo about the situation.

After Wang Changsheng left.

Inspector Megure also began to tidy up the scene.

He looked around and finally his gaze fell on Uncle Mori, who was still fast asleep.

It was at this time that...

"Snoring~"

Uncle Mori's snoring suddenly exploded like a hand grenade.

Inspector Megure was startled.

"..."

The other police officers were also speechless.

However, since they were professionally trained, they did not laugh out loud easily.

Just by looking at the barely suppressed smiles on their faces, you can tell what they're really thinking.

"This Mori guy... Conan said he started sleeping last night and is still snoring now. Doesn't he get tired?"

Inspector Megure walked over to Uncle Mori with a speechless expression.

"Mori-san, wake up, wake up."

It took Inspector Megure pushing him more than a dozen times before Uncle Mori finally felt anything.

He smacked his lips groggily and shifted his body slightly: "Don't do that... Miss Yoko~"

Inspector Megure hadn't quite heard what he said before, and had just squatted down to shake Uncle Mori awake again.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Uncle Mori suddenly stretched out his arm and pulled Inspector Megure's round head into his arms.

"Miss Yoko... what are you having for dinner tonight...?"

You know what?

Uncle Mori's death scene still revealed a bit of greasy boyfriend charm.

However, the person he was referring to wasn't the Miss Yoko he mentioned, but rather...

Inspector Megure, with a dark face and a rugged appearance.

"puff……"

The officers behind him couldn't hold back any longer.

Everyone covered their mouths, afraid that their laughter would be too loud and they would be targeted by their superiors.

Judging from their flushed faces and trembling bodies from laughing, it was clear that...

They were having a hard time suppressing their laughter.

"Baka yarou!"

Inspector Megure swore and, with a dark expression, broke free from Uncle Mori's warm and sincere embrace.

"Damn, this kid's got some strength..."

Inspector Megure was so angry with Uncle Mori that he reached out and slapped Uncle Mori on the head.

"Wake up, you idiot!"

Unlike the slightly comical atmosphere that accompanied their noise.

Asai Narumi, who was lying in a row with Ran and Conan, silently opened her eyes.

This was different from his gentle demeanor when interacting with Wang Changsheng and Uncle Maoli.

At this moment, his eyes were full of calm.

The sunlight outside the window was becoming increasingly bright.

Light streamed into the room from all directions.

It felt warm and cozy on my skin.

However, unlike the expressions of enjoyment on Conan and Ran's faces beside him.

After glancing at the sun-drenched window, he quickly looked away, seemingly frightened, and closed his eyes again.

Even with his eyes closed, he felt as if vivid scenes were still unfolding before him.

The warm sunlight streaming in through the window was dazzling.

The light was so dazzling that he was momentarily transported back to the night his father died.

At that moment, what he saw was so bright, so dazzling.

The only difference is—

The light at this moment is warm sunshine.

Back then, the light was a raging fire!

The sunlight seemed to transform into a raging fire, a blazing inferno, within his closed eyes!

The roar of the flames.

The agonizing screams of loved ones.

That blazing fire, that intense intensity!

That furious helplessness.

That unbearable, heart-wrenching pain.

Overwhelmed with grief, she wept uncontrollably.

In a daze.

The sound of police officers talking frequently reached my ears.

It also transformed into the father's loving reprimands and the mother's gentle and delicate whispers.

However, all of this is becoming more urgent and more forceful.

Ultimately, all of this transformed into that celestial melody—

moonlight!

moonlight!

Asai Narumi's closed eyes trembled slightly.

He thought of a letter someone had sent him.

The letter contained a poem.

Titled "Answer"

"Baseness is the passport of the base."

"Nobility is the epitaph of the noble."

"Look, in that gilded sky."

"The shadows of the dead floated everywhere."

"The Ice Age is over, so why are there icicles everywhere?"

"The Cape of Good Hope has been discovered, so why are thousands of sails racing in the Dead Sea?"

"I came into this world with paper, rope, and a shadow."

"In order to read aloud the voices of those who have been sentenced before the trial."

"Let me tell you, world—"

"I don't believe it!"

Even if there are a thousand challengers at your feet, count me as the thousand and first.

"I don't believe the sky is blue, I don't believe in the echo of thunder."

"I don't believe dreams are false, and I don't believe death goes unpunished."

"If the ocean is destined to break its banks, let all the bitterness flow into my heart."

"If the land is destined to rise, then let humanity choose a new peak for survival."

"New opportunities and twinkling stars are adorning the unobstructed sky."

"Those are five thousand years of hieroglyphics, those are the eyes of future generations gazing upon us."

Every time I think of this poem.

Asai Narumi felt a surge of excitement and resonance rising within her.

But after the excitement, a faint sadness remains.

The poem is so powerful that he can feel the depth within its words.

Even if he didn't understand the implications, it didn't stop his emotions from trembling.

Judging from the literal meaning, he felt that his state of mind was very similar to that of the poem.

But the last few lines of the poem reach an extremely high level.

He couldn't understand it, but he could feel it with his heart.

But this time, there was no turning back from the choice he made.

Of course, he didn't regret it.

Even if we could do it all over again.

He too should act as the poem describes.

I declare to the world—I do not believe it! I do not believe that death goes unpunished!

If the ocean is destined to break its banks, let all the bitterness flow into my heart.

"I'm willing to give up everything for revenge!"

Time flies.

The whole day seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.

Until evening.

The sunset glowed down once more, covering the island.

The once blazing red sun was no longer dazzling; instead, it became much softer and brighter.

Even with both eyes, one can look directly at it.

It was falling toward the western mountains and the endless ocean, and half of the deep space was also red.

The sunset glow was long and gentle, and the entire Moonshadow Island was shrouded in a hazy rose color.

Everything seemed as peaceful and serene as ever, as if nothing had happened.

But that's not the case.

In the public hall of Moonshadow Island.

A large number of people had gathered at this time.

Some of them looked fearful and timid.

Some looked impatient and seemed quite irritable, but in reality, a hint of panic would occasionally slip through their eyes.

Some looked completely calm, revealing nothing.

"A whole day has passed, it's finally almost over."

Uncle Maoli stood to the side with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, but he didn't light it because the place was inappropriate and there were several children sitting next to him.

"Uncle Mori, I hope the police won't give my friends any trouble. After all, they don't even know the details of this incident."

Wang Changsheng sat on a chair by the corridor with Conan. He looked up and asked Uncle Mori a question.

"Don't worry, it won't happen." Uncle Mori shook his head, looking full of energy. Even after staying up all day, he was still full of vitality.

Taking the cigarette from his hand, Uncle Wang Li explained to Wang Changsheng, "Your friends don't know anything; they're just tourists. Only Madam Daidouji might be questioned by the police. As for your youngest daughter... female friend, and the others, they'll probably just ask a few simple questions about what they were doing yesterday. Don't worry."

"Is that so? Then I'm relieved." Wang Changsheng nodded, completely unaware of the word that Uncle Mori almost let slip halfway through his sentence.

That's true, isn't Sakura his female friend?

Not just Sakura, but Tomoyo too!

"But this has been going on for too long. It's almost seven o'clock already, isn't it?" Wang Changsheng grabbed Conan's wrist and glanced at the watch.

This guy had a weak and listless expression. Even when Wang Changsheng grabbed him, he didn't react much and just let him manipulate his arm.

There was nothing I could do. I stayed up all night last night and only slept for a short while this morning. As a result, Inspector Megure woke up Uncle Mori and asked him a lot of questions, some of which Uncle Mori couldn't even answer.

Left with no other choice, they had to wake Conan and the others up again.

However, by then, the police had already collected most of the evidence at the scene.

After all, there wasn't much evidence to be obtained; everything that could be destroyed had already been destroyed...

So Conan and his friends were forced to turn on the computer again, and then stayed up all day. No wonder they were numb.
