Chapter 17
The Ghastly Figure in the Firelight of the Night, A Ghost?!

If it could be said that the evil god statue had injured innocent people in the last apartment.

Then this time, there was not even a single innocent soul.

“All are evil, none shall be spared!”

Dao Yuan Shun looked at the raging fire through the perspective of a Gu Chong and murmured softly.

After gaining some special abilities from the evil god statue.

Asai Seijitsu immediately found the current village head, Kuroiwa Jinji, and hypnotized him.

Under hypnosis, Asai Seijitsu could understand the entire truth.

Firstly, the village had been using the pianist, Asou Keiji, to transport drugs.

That's right, the entire village!!

And it wasn't just a few individuals.

It was simple, several people in the village suddenly became wealthy.

So how could anyone not know how they got rich?

The same village, the same island!

Plus, Kuroiwa Jinji and the others hardly left the island.

So, to prevent villagers from reporting them and becoming envious.

Kuroiwa Jinji and his small group initially brought the entire village into their conspiracy.

This was also why Asou Keiji's villa caught fire, yet no one came to his aid.

Knowing that such a large villa would take a long time to burn down.

Yet, no one came to rescue him, this was a bit strange.

Moreover, Asou Keiji was a famous pianist.

If a small place produced such a famous figure, they should be proud of him.

This village head election was actually just a dissatisfaction among the islanders regarding the distribution of benefits.

It wasn't that Kuroiwa Jinji did a bad job!

Especially after Asou Keiji's death, many villagers took on the task of transporting drugs.

It can be said that this truth plunged Asai Seijitsu's heart into darkness.

“Who could have imagined that such a shocking secret was hidden on a small island.”

Even Dao Yuan Shun couldn't help but be surprised.

Now, it was understandable that Asai Seijitsu used fire to cleanse all the evil.

As many villagers collapsed.

“It must be Asou Keiji's evil spirit.”

“Don't come near me, don't come near me.”

“I didn't mean to!!”

One after another, many villagers fell into a state of self-confusion.

They even mistook each other for evil spirits.

It can be said that the crowd started to become chaotic.

Two people even got into a fight with each other, and they ran into a nearby burning building.

Ultimately, they turned into human torches!

One scene after another, under the night sky and the reflection of the sky-high flames.

It was exceptionally ghastly!

“The entire village has gone mad!!”

Even the Mouri family didn't immediately react to this change.

However, Mouri Ran was quick and kicked away a crazed villager who was approaching.

“Uncle, let's find a place to hide first.”

Conan quickly spoke at this time.

Then, the group, along with Dr. Asai Seijitsu, quickly ran to the sea-facing side of the community center.

At least they could avoid the sight of many crazed villagers.

“What exactly is going on!?”

“The entire island is engulfed in flames.”

“And these villagers, they're going crazy for no reason.”

....

Just as the Mouri family breathed a sigh of relief, Mouri Kogoro said with an ugly expression.

Knowing how the villagers had gone crazy, they were also in danger.

Conan had also calmed down at this point.

But he couldn't come up with any ideas for the time being.

Because, whether it was the fire sweeping across the entire island, or the villagers' madness.

Even the death of Kawashima Hidewo before had no warning.

“Dad, there won't be any evil spirits on the island, right?!”

A look of fear appeared on Mouri Ran's face as she spoke.

Knowing that she was terrified of ghosts and the like.

Not to mention she had heard a lot of eerie stories today.

Plus, it was late at night, and such a terrifying thing had happened.

It was inevitable for her to overthink.

“It should be fine!”

Mouri Kogoro sounded a bit lacking in confidence as he spoke.

Mainly because the things that had happened today were too strange.

So strange that he didn't have any confidence whatsoever.

“Uncle, maybe the entire village has been drugged.”

Conan, however, didn't believe in anything strange, insisting that there must be a culprit behind this, and he spoke resolutely.

“Perhaps there really are evil spirits.”

Asai Seijitsu spoke at this moment, his words seemed to hold a special meaning.

However, at this time, Conan's eyes fell on the doctor, Asai Seijitsu.

There was a question!

Everyone on Tsukikage Island had encountered problems, but why was Dr. Asai Seijitsu fine!?

Did the culprit let the doctor go?

Or was it too sensitive to drug a doctor or something.

Or maybe!?

Conan couldn't help but think about many things in a short period of time.
