Today, Mōri's family once again boarded a cruise ship due to various coincidences, cough, a letter from Keiji Asou, and set off for a small island called Lunar Shadow Island.
"Let's not talk about giving up the flower viewing because of an inexplicable letter and having to go to that island. The most important thing is …" Maori Kogoro had an unlit cigarette in his mouth with a dispirited expression. At this point, he pointed at a certain person who was leisurely enjoying the sea breeze and playing with the hawk and shouted, "Why are you here too?!"
"Hmm?" Hayakawa Tetsuo, who was called out, turned around and picked up Conan. He smiled and said, "Anyway, the basketball team doesn't have any training this week, and I'm also very interested in the letter that Uncle Mōri received." Most importantly, he wanted to change their luck!
"Hmph! As long as you don't cause any trouble, it'll be fine! "
"Haha ~" Hayakawa Tetsuo smiled and rubbed Conan's head. He received a look of disdain from Saitama Saitama.
After putting Conan down and straightening his back, he suddenly felt dizzy. He couldn't help but touch his forehead that was cold from the sea breeze. Conan, who noticed his movement, was a little worried, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "
"Ah? I'm fine … Achoo! " As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but sneeze. Hayakawa Tetsuo rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly, "Probably the sea breeze has been blowing for a long time. I'll go to the cabin to rest first."
According to his physique, it shouldn't be so easy to catch a cold.
Originally, he thought that he would feel better after resting, but it seemed to be worse when he arrived on the island.
He got off the ship in a daze and followed Mōri to the household registration office. In the end, he was told that Keiji Asou, who sent them the letter, killed his entire family twelve years ago and died in a sea of fire. On the way to the Citizen Hall to look for the village chief, they passed by the hospital and met a female doctor named Asai Sei. She was very familiar with them and told them about the village chief election that was taking place on the island.
No, what was so good about being a village chief?
This was the first thought that came to Hayakawa Tetsuo's mind. Then, he remembered that the two village chiefs seemed to be different.
But … female doctor?
Hayakawa Hatsuwa propped up his chin as he sized up this doctor thoughtfully.
Although no matter if it was the way she spoke, her appearance, her actions, or her clothes, she was completely like a girl, but this faint sense of incongruity … No, my head is starting to hurt.
Hayakawa Akiwa clicked his tongue and pressed down hard on his temples that were starting to hurt. He treated the strange feeling he felt earlier as a misconception that he was not in his best condition. In any case, he did not feel any malice from this person.
Hai Dongqing rubbed the side of his face worriedly.
"I'm sorry about that." Hayakawa Tetsuo asked with a pale face, "Dr. Asai, can you prescribe me some cold medicine?"
"Eh?! Tetsuo, do you have a cold? " Mauliland looked a little surprised. Although he did not speak much since they arrived on the island and his face did not look very good, she thought it was because he was not acclimatized. She did not think about it at all. "This is the first time I've seen you sick."
"Haha, I didn't expect it either." Hayakawa Tetsuo laughed helplessly. "You guys go first. I'll be there after a short rest."
— — —
"37.3 degrees Celsius. Your body temperature is a little high, but it's a low fever. It's not a big deal." Then, Dr. Asai took out a tongue depressor and asked him to open his mouth, "Do you feel itchy in your throat?"
He shook his head.
"Your body is a little red and swollen. Do you have snot and phlegm?"
"No, I just feel a headache and my head is swollen. Maybe it's because of the sea breeze on my way here."
"It should be an upper respiratory tract infection caused by the cold. I'll prescribe you some medicine and drink more water. By the way, do you have any allergies?"
"No." Hayakawa Tetsuo felt a dull pain in his temples, as if someone was hammering it with an awl. His face was a little pale. "If it's possible, can you prescribe me some painkillers?"
"Is the headache very serious?" Dr. Asai looked at Hayakawa Tetsuo's face and asked worriedly, "Logically speaking, an upper respiratory tract infection should not cause such a serious headache. Do you have any other medical history?"
"Ha … I've been in good health since I was young. I rarely get sick. Maybe this illness has made up for all the injuries I suffered in the past few years." He even made fun of himself.
After taking the medicine, Hayakawa Tetsuo lay on the bed and rested for a while. When the medicine took effect and he felt less uncomfortable, he got up and prepared to say goodbye to Dr. Asai.
"You're going to the Citizen Hall, right? Wait for me for a while." Dr. Asai quickly explained the hospital's affairs to the nurse. He smiled at Hayakawa Tetsuo cheerfully. "I happen to have something to do at the Citizen Hall. I'll send you there."
Because animals were not allowed to enter the hospital, Hai Dongqing could only wait outside alone. As soon as it saw its owner, it pounced on its owner's flat arm and cooed a few times.
"I'm sorry to have made you worry, Horus." Hayakawa Tetsuo smiled and stroked Hai Dongqing's feathers to comfort it. Dr. Asai, who was at the side, moved forward curiously and looked at Horus, who was standing steadily on his arm. He looked like he wanted to reach out and touch it, but he did not dare to. "This is the first time I've seen someone raise an eagle. It's called Horus, right? An Egyptian god? What species is it? It looks so majestic! "
Horus seemed to understand that the human in front of it was praising itself. It shook its feathers and puffed out its chest proudly, trying to make itself look more majestic.
"I picked up Horus when I went to Inner Mongolia. It's a spear falcon. In China, it's also called Hai Dongqing, which means' God of Eagles. ' I named it because I happened to learn about Egypt in history class when I was naming him. Horus is the God of Eagles, so I thought it would be a good name. "
"Heh ~ I feel like this is fate."
"Haha, yes." Hayakawa Tetsuo responded with a smile.
Horus was not only the God of Eagles, but also the God of Vengeance.
Dr. Asai seemed to be a very talkative person. He would often introduce some of the island's characteristics, scenic spots, and interesting news. Hayakawa Tetsuo listened with a smile. From time to time, he would respond with a few words to show that he was listening carefully.
Hayakawa Tetsuo patted Horus' head again.
Horus just told him a piece of information, which proved that his initial feeling was not an illusion. But after thinking about it, he didn't know if Dr. Asai deliberately hid his gender, or if it was because he had gender dysphoria. After all, he knew someone who was clearly a man but firmly believed that he was a woman. So, he just kept it in the bottom of his heart and didn't ask further.
Dr. Asai came back to the Citizen Hall to attend the funeral of the former village chief who passed away two years ago. Along the way, he met Masato Shimizu, one of the candidates for the village chief position. After meeting up with Mōri and the others, while waiting for the funeral to end, he was a little drowsy due to the effects of the drugs.
After some time, the piano music in his ears woke him up instantly.
"This is … Moonlight Symphony?" Hayakawa Tetsuo, who didn't participate in the afternoon's investigation, was a little confused. Instead, he was shocked by Conan, who suddenly jumped up and shouted. When he got up, he accidentally stumbled because of the dizziness and hurriedly followed him.
Pushing open the door to the piano room, Mr. Kawashima, who they met not long ago, was lying on the piano accompanied by Beethoven's "Moonlight Symphony". After checking, it was confirmed that the body was dead. There was an obvious puddle of water on the ground.
Hayakawa Tetsuo rubbed his increasingly drowsy head. From the corner of his eye, he happened to see Conan squatting on the ground. He dipped his finger into the water on the ground and licked it.
He licked it.
He licked it.
He licked it.
He licked it.
“.....”
Shinichi, why do you put everything in your mouth!!!!!
Hayakawa Tetsuo didn't have much energy to pay attention to what happened after that. Halfway through, because Conan sensed that the murderer would commit another crime, they returned to the piano room and prepared to stay there for the night. After hastily eating the bento and rice balls brought by Dr. Asai and taking the drugs, Hayakawa Tetsuo wrapped himself in the quilt and fell asleep under the slightly worried gaze of the others. He didn't even notice the figure that appeared halfway through. He slept until noon the next day, when Officer Mugo brought the police over, and then …
He successfully changed from a low fever to a high fever, and was directly sent to the hospital by the police for an infusion.
"Damn it! You little brat, you always give me trouble! " Momori Kogoro grumbled as he placed a cup of warm water into the hands of Hayakawa Che Yu who was lying on the sickbed.
"I'm so sorry, Uncle Mōri …"
Hayakawa Hatsuwa's current situation could not be considered good. His face was flushed red from the high fever, and his eyes were also red from the heat. His lips were instead somewhat pale and dry due to the discomfort of his body. Because of the composition of the medicine in the infusion, his entire body was drenched in sweat as though he had been fished out of water.
Officer Mugo was interrogating a few suspects. Dr. Asai came over to take his temperature again, "38.1 degrees Celsius, the temperature has dropped. Avoid spicy food for a while, don't do strenuous exercise, don't be exposed to the wind, and eat more fruits and light food."
Hayakawa Tetsuo could be said to be a very obedient patient. He nestled in the bed and obediently nestled in the quilt. Even if the quilt was very wet and uncomfortable because of his sweat, he didn't open it. He listened to Dr. Asai's advice and nodded obediently. Then, he fell asleep again.
After a while, Mōri Kogoro asked the nurse to help take care of Hayakawa Tetsuo. Then, he left with Dr. Asai, who was also one of the suspects, to assist Officer Mugo in the investigation.
When he woke up again, the sky was already dark. The medicine in the infusion bag was almost empty. The nurse came over to pull out the needle and changed the bedding for him. After thanking her, he was about to lie down and continue to rest. Dr. Asai came in and greeted him. She handed him a bowl of porridge, "You didn't eat much today. I bought you some porridge on my way back." Her smile was as cheerful and kind as always. However, Hayakawa Tetsuo, who had recovered some of his energy, was sensitive enough to smell blood on her.
After taking the porridge and thanking her, he picked up his phone while eating and opened an email. After eating half of the porridge, the police hurriedly ran over and told them that the third victim appeared at the Citizen Hall. As a suspect, Dr. Asai wanted to go with them. Hayakawa Tetsuo understood.
When Dr. Asai was about to follow, Hayakawa Tetsuo grabbed his wrist. He politely smiled at the police and said that he wanted to talk to Dr. Asai alone. After the police left, Hayakawa Tetsuo and Dr. Asai looked at each other ambiguously. They stared at each other until Dr. Asai felt goosebumps all over his body. Then, Hayakawa Tetsuo said, "Do you regret it?"
"Huh? What are you talking about … "
"Do you regret sacrificing your future for those scumbags? Why didn't you give the evidence to the police? Hemp Producing Fruit. "
Dr. Asai's eyes widened in shock, "How, how did you know …"
"Although it was a little troublesome, I finally found something after so long. I knew you were a man from the beginning. I thought it was because of gender identity disorder, and my senses were dulled because of illness. Until just now, I smelled the blood on your body. Coincidentally, a reliable friend of mine sent me Keiji Asou's information."
"So," Hemp Producing Fruit smiled as if he had given up, "Are you going to give me to the police?"
"I'm not like Shinichi, who's an idiot in charge of law and morality. Besides, I hate that kind of scum, so I won't tell the police. However, I suggest that you leave quickly. After all, although my partner doesn't seem very reliable, he's much smarter than I am in this regard."
Hemp Producing Fruit was silent for a moment before he said, "… Thank you, I won't run away."
"My hands are already stained with blood. If I just run away and live like this, I won't be able to accept it."
"…" Hayakawa Tetsuo turned around and walked to the bed. He lifted the quilt and lay down, whispering softly, "You and I are really alike."
"Huh?"
"Nothing, I'm asleep now. I don't know anything."
"Hahaha ~"
"Thank you."
In the end, Hemp Producing Fruit threw Conan, who came to persuade him, out the window. He chose to play the Moonlight Melody in the piano room surrounded by flames and disappeared from the world.
Hayakawa Tetsuo stood in front of the window of the ward, looking at the conspicuous fire in the distance in the darkness. He touched the Hai Dongqing on his arm.
