Chapter 158 Resurrecting the dead, becoming human tools (Ch 158)

After torturing Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Kawashima Hideo, Cheng Shi killed them. In order not to affect the subsequent plan, he used more psychological torture, and there was no physical trace of torture.

At this time, the two people had turned into corpses lying on the ground, and with Kuroiwa Reiko, there were three corpses in total. If an ordinary person was in the same place with three corpses, he would definitely be scared, but there were no ordinary people here.

Mochizuki is the god of death, Louise is a vampire, and Cheng Shi is a doctor who has seen many corpses.

“It’s my turn to take action next…” Mochizuki raised his hand towards the corpse of Kuroiwa Tatsuji in the middle and gave him 24 hours of life. Because he had just died and his body’s vitality had not completely disappeared, Mochizuki could revive him.

There is no meaning in simply resurrecting him. Mochizuki’s plan is to gain control of him so as to complete the next arrangement. Therefore, resurrecting him for 24 hours requires 48 hours of life.

Just as his life span was coming to an end, the originally dead Kuroiwa Tatsuji opened his eyes, crawled up from the ground, and respectfully called Mochizuki “Master.” This scene was extremely shocking to Cheng Shi.

Did he really raise the dead?

Although the God of Death had mentioned this matter when they were discussing the plan, Cheng Shi still couldn’t believe it when he saw it with his own eyes. If even the dead can be resurrected, then what else can’t be done?

Although Louise already knew that Mochizuki could resurrect the dead, because she herself was resurrected by Mochizuki, she still couldn’t hide her horror. Resurrecting the dead, this is the realm of God…

“If you can resurrect him, can you resurrect my parents? I can give you as much life as possible!” Cheng Shi thought of his family members who died tragically, and asked the God of Death hurriedly.

Mochizuki’s answer made him regretful, “No, only those who have just died can be resurrected. That’s the law.”

Cheng Shi was a little disappointed, but he quickly accepted the reality.

“Kuroiwa Tatsuji.” Mochizuki called out.

Kuroiwa Tatsuji immediately responded, “Yes, Master, please give me your orders.”

Mochizuki ordered, “Go to the memorial service for the former village chief tonight and ask Nishimoto Ken to come out…”

…

Time passed quickly and it was dark in a blink of an eye. Wangyue had already met up with Xiaolan and the others, and they came to the activity center together.

Because today is the second anniversary of the death of the former village chief, many residents will come here spontaneously in the evening to mourn.

Seeing the genuine nostalgia on the faces of these villagers, Mochizuki also had a deeper understanding of what he had told Xiaolan before: “Everything has two sides.”

Is the former village chief, Isamu Kameyama, a good person?

Of course not, he was a drug dealer and LSP behind the scenes. He coveted Asai Narimi’s beauty and invited Narimi to the activity center to do something bad, but was frightened to death by Narimi. But he did do a lot of practical things when he was in office, so much so that many residents missed him after his death.

“Humans are such complex animals.” Wangyue couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at the portrait of the village chief Guishan in front of him.

Xiaolan felt very strange and asked, “Why do you suddenly say such a thing?”

“It’s just a sentiment, there’s no meaning to it.” Wangyue smiled.

The short Conan next to him looked up with deep contempt, “Don’t think I don’t know, you just want to act artistic to attract Xiaolan’s attention?” Maybe this trick was popular decades ago, but girls nowadays won’t be fooled.

Residents arrived one after another, and the current village chief Kuroiwa Tatsuji also came and greeted Kogoro with a hearty smile. He looked no different from the daytime, and no one could guess that he was dead and was only temporarily resurrected by Mochizuki. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Originally, he became Wangyue’s servant and would be very respectful when he saw Wangyue. But because of Wangyue’s order, his attitude towards Wangyue was the same as during the day, that is, he ignored her.

Asai Narimi also came, wearing black clothes according to the customs of the R country, and he also didn’t look like he had just killed someone. When Kogoro saw “her” coming, his eyes lit up and he walked over to her.

“Ahem, Dr. Asai, I didn’t expect you to attend the memorial service.” Kogoro casually found a topic.

Cheng Shi smiled politely, “Because Village Chief Guishan was the first person I performed an autopsy on after arriving at Yueying Island.”

“I see. As a detective, sometimes when something unexpected happens, I also perform autopsies on the deceased…”[]

Cheng Shi did not reveal his true colors and pretended to be surprised, “Are you a detective?” Because when Kogoro approached him in front of the clinic before, he only said that he was from Tokyo, but did not say that he was a detective.

Kogoro pretended to be profound, “Well, he is quite famous.”

Just when Kogoro was about to brag about himself, a man with a small braid behind his head walked over. Conan remembered that he was the fiancé of the village chief’s daughter, named Murasawa Shuichi.

“Detective Maori, can I have a word with you for a moment?”

“Just tell me what you want to say here.” Kogoro stayed beside Chengmi and didn’t want to leave.

Murasawa Shuichi hesitated for a moment and said, “After I returned home, I found strange things at home. They should have been left by Lingzi, because they were placed in the bedside table next to Lingzi…” As he spoke, Murasawa Shuichi took out a few folded newspapers from his arms.

“Huh? Newspaper?” Kogoro was unable to react for a moment.

It was not until Murasawa Shuji spread out the newspaper, revealing the densely packed square holes, that Kogoro and Conan’s faces changed instantly. Mochizuki was the same, but his change of expression was fake.

“What is this?!” Kogoro quickly took out the letter he had received from his pocket. This letter was made up of words cut from newspapers. Could it be that…

Putting the newspaper and the letter on the ground together, Kogoro, Conan and Mochizuki squatted down and compared them quickly. Then the three of them confirmed one thing – the words on the letter were cut from these newspapers!

Seeing this scene, a gleam of light flashed in Asai Narimi’s eyes. She knew that the god of death’s plan had moved forward one step.

That’s right, these newspapers were taken by Mochizuki from Cheng Shi. He placed the newspapers in the room of Kuroiwa Reiko and her fiancé – the two were already living together without being married.

It’s just that Mochizuki didn’t expect that he would find the newspaper so soon. But it doesn’t matter if it’s sooner or later, as long as the newspaper can be found eventually.

“Even the edges of the paper match up… So the person who sent me the letter is Kuroiwa Reiko?” Kogoro muttered to himself, looking up at Kuroiwa Tatsuji and asked, “Mr. Kuroiwa, what exactly did your daughter want to do by inviting me to Moon Shadow Island?”

Just now when Kogoro was comparing the newspaper and letter paper on the ground, many people came to watch, and Kuroiwa Tatsuji was naturally one of them. Now when he heard Kogoro asking him a question, he shook his head and said, “I don’t know anything about this!”
