Chapter 1005 Duel Invitation
"Thank you for your help, I've really helped..."
When Conan, who had finished the transcript, walked out of the inquiry room, he happened to meet Akichigoro who also walked into the corridor.
The policeman who sent him out thanked him all the way, and the gratitude on his face was not fake.
"I just do my best to provide some assistance. This kind of work is difficult to make people feel accomplished." As usual, Akichigoro, who was holding his suitcase, smiled and looked gentle. "I went to the birthday party, but in the end he had to help the host identify the way the protagonist died at the banquet, which is very regrettable."
The very social rhetoric statement, judging from the humble rhetoric he chose, in addition to taking the same record of everything that happened last night, Akichigoro seems to be assisting the police in explaining the death of Shiyi Rika.
Considering that this may have an inexplicable relationship with him, this scene is really funny.
"I understand your mood, but I still thank you for helping the appraisal department for the forensics. The traces at the scene are so messy..." The police officers next to him still thanked him. "You made a very accurate judgment, as if you saw it at the scene, so amazing."
"Where is it, it's too exaggerated." Akichigoro smiled humbly again.
Standing by and listening, Conan always felt that this was probably the truth: "..."
Noting that he was standing in the corridor looking at his child silently, Tang Ze smiled and politely declined the police's look. He walked to Conan and showed a bright smile at him: "Conan, have you finished the transcript too? Thank you for your hard work yesterday. Go back early to rest. Children of this age cannot lack sleep."
Speaking of this, Tang Ze himself felt outrageous.
If Tang Ze hadn't done the case yesterday, according to the original trajectory, Kogoro and his group who had experienced a terrifying night would have to have all night.
After counting, similar cases are common throughout the plot. Conan, a primary school student and Ran Maori, it is normal to stay up late and not sleep.
Even this aspect requires overtime work. These prisoners are really working at work and committing crimes. They don’t kill people without darkness.
This real concern was expressed from Tang Ze himself, but it was expressed from his current face as if it was ridiculed.
With the feeling of being shrouded by the shadow cast by Akichigoro, Conan couldn't help but take a step back and looked at the guy in front of him who hadn't slept for a few hours and was still radiant.
"...It has something to do with you, this case." Confirm that no one around was listening, Conan said very bluntly, "President Sijing looked at you and seemed to be almost scared to death."
From the perspective of the case, due to the lack of specific whereabouts of Sijing Lihua and all participants have other people's absenteeism, the only possibility of committing the crime, Wuzhao Xiu has returned to the large army before and after the death time recorded by the camera. At present, all the evidence cannot support the possibility of this case being a homicide, and the police naturally only dealt with it as a case of unnatural death.
But Conan knew very well that Akichigoro would not be there for no reason.
Not to mention the president of Sijing who came to deal with the death of Sijing Rihua the next day, always observing Akichigoro's direction with a fearful and exploratory look.
The vision was complicated and hesitant, and he never dared to really look at me. The kind of shrinkage and dodging were difficult to disguise.
From this, Conan can basically judge that the Sijing Group may really have something to do with the organization. Even if you don’t know Akitoro’s situation, you know that this is not an innocent ordinary detective.
This added a different meaning to Sijing Lihua's death. Compared to simply being irritated and killing the other party, it was more like a cruel killing of the chicken to warn the monkey, a warning to Sijing Group.
"If you speak, you have to tell the evidence, kid." Tang Ze just continued to laugh, not taking the bait.
He knew very well how many small props Conan had transformed with doctors. After several accidents, their teenage detective team badges had been installed at the request of the children.
He wouldn't leave such a handle.
Conan narrowed his eyes: "Even if you crack your technique, there will be no evidence left."
He had secretly studied the camera that appeared on the scene with deliberate intention.
The images in the camera are damaged too well, but the remaining part is indeed not edited or processed, it is the original film recorded by the camera.
It can be seen that Rika Shiyi and Yuji Nikaido pushed each other in an emotional quarrel, and both fell into the water and died. It is indeed true.
Even if we find evidence that Akichigoro threatened Mikari Shiyi and caused the other party to run into the forest in the middle of the night, or find evidence that Akichigoro was present and threatened or provoked them, it is impossible to convict the other party.
Conan, who figured this out, quickly broke free from that kind of frustration.
The opponent I am facing now is a detective, a detective who may have big problems with his identity.
Regardless of whether the other party is really as excellent as public opinion praises, this is a veteran who is familiar with crime and criminal investigation procedures. It is not that easy to seize the other party’s handle.
"...What you said is not wrong." Seeing how calm he said, Tang Ze simply nodded calmly.
In fact, Tang Ze's technique is very simple and crude.
He knocked Siyi Lihua out, asked someone to pretend to be her and jump off the building, and then found an opportunity to capture Yuji Nikaido, who was searching for it. It was just a few steps.
It is simple to control Sijing Lihua and take people to the forest. Tang Ze himself does not need to be present. After all, when he started to act, there was almost a football team hidden in the shadow of the room.
Rika Shiyi herself was right next to her, and it was not difficult to disguise herself as she helped Shimabukuro Junhui. Both sides were skilled workers.
It is a bit difficult to catch the Yuji part of Nikaido, but Shanlin is originally the home court of Shimabukuro Kine. After a lot of combat practice, she has become more flexible. It is really not difficult to catch someone.
Back then on an American island, she could not be found without being found going up the mountain, killing people, dealing with corpses, and going down the mountain. It was a real technical flow.
What really caused their death was indeed the irrationality of the two of them under the constant instigation and stimulation of Tang Ze.
Of course, I chose a pool with lush aquatic plants and numerous aquatic plants in the water, which is also part of the murderous intent.
"Well, so I think that video was not for the police." Conan judged this again.
The content of the two people quarrel in the video, including the final way of death, is so strong that the media that understands the inside story exaggeratedly used the words "curses" and "reincarnation of fate" to describe the case.
If there is really a human factor in this, the video content is not so much a perjury used to confuse the public and disrupt the police's judgment, but rather an explanation for Yaeko's death.
Recalling the secret conversation between Akichigoro and Takashi Ichira after the banquet, Conan felt even more confident.
Therefore, he felt even more ridiculous.
What is this? Is it considered fulfilling the client's wish?
"If you say that, well, do you feel this way..." Tang Ze nodded ambiguously.
It’s not that Tang Ze didn’t dare to do it himself, but the main reason was that the video was indeed left to the grandmother of Ichizhi Takashi and Yaeko, who was the grandmother of Yone.
They have already replaced everyone's noses, quietly disappearing, killing them and throwing them away somewhere in the mountains and forests, and closing the case as a missing case would be a more ideal method.
But Tang Ze remembered Yizhilong, who had been tortured by this death for two years, and remembered the elderly who had lost their children and had to follow the culprit to be sent by the culprit, and felt that he needed to give them an answer. "You really admit it." Conan twitched twice.
"What did you admit?" Tang Ze made a confused expression knowingly, "It's not realistic to use such simple clichés to solve me, little detective."
"I still can't figure out how you accomplished these techniques, but I think no matter what method you used, as long as it is really artificial, everything will have an answer." After frankly admitting his frustration, Conan put his hands in his pocket, without any gloom on his face, "I believe that this is just because I lack understanding of some things for the time being."
This case made Conan couldn't help but think of the strange thieves in his heart.
The inability to find traces and judge the method of action was so incredible that the attack on the prisoner was completed.
Thinking of the bizarre world beyond reality and the abilities that cannot be explained by common sense, Conan developed an enlightenment.
...There must be a reason why the organization chose to keep this person in touch and implicit control over Tang Ze, and it is definitely not as simple as Tang Ze himself described.
"I will work hard," Conan concluded.
"What are you working hard for?" Seeing that he showed such a standard and determined face, Tang Ze couldn't help asking.
What, this feeling of becoming the final boss?
However, considering that one day the plot will transition to a vigorous three-choice one in the future, as Kumer, he must not be able to escape this, Tang Ze thought it was reasonable.
When the story enters the stage of choosing one of passion but no matter how you choose, Conan's expression must be very exciting.
Now Tang Ze is looking forward to Conan's expression of discovering the truth clearly, no matter which one it is.
Compared to knowing that he is Kummel, discovering that Kummel is fake wine will probably make Conan crack.
Not knowing how the person standing in front of him felt distracted, Conan still raised his head and looked straight into the other person's face.
Sunlight passed through the windows of the police station corridor, and the light cut into regular shapes hit the other person's face, dividing the handsome young face into two pieces of light and darkness.
Just like the light and dark sides condensed on this person.
Conan had a premonition that solving this person's problem might be the beginning of disintegrating the organization and giving them a heavy blow.
"...Try hard and defeat you."
Conan declared so concisely and powerfully.
【rankup! Rank5】
[After your unremitting efforts - no matter which side you are - the detective who is highly anticipated by you, he finally embarked on the path you expected.
He has already known the darkness of the world, has discovered part of the truth, and has abandoned hesitation and childishness.
Now he stands before you, declaring war on your secrets, and declaring war on your past.
You are actually very clear that in the face of this keen first-class detective, many secrets cannot be hidden. What kind of answer do you want to give him now? 】
[Acquiring ability "Breath Hidden Lv2"]
Tang Ze's expression was frozen for a moment, and after a while, he couldn't help laughing.
Issued a declaration of war to find out the truth, and handed it to the opponent with a deeper hidden ability.
What is this? Is this a "fair and just" showdown?
If I hadn't had too many cheating methods, it might be true.
"Since you are so confident..."
It was rare to put down the suitcase. Tang Ze pulled the glove with a smile, and at a very slow rate, he pulled it off his hand little by little, revealing his right hand.
He threw the black glove in the direction of Conan and was caught reflexibly.
"Then let me see how far you can do it, Detective."
Watching him grab the suitcase with his rare bare right hand and walk out without looking back, Conan frowned for a while, lowered his head, and looked at the soft fabric he was holding in his hand.
He thought Akichigoro was going to show him something, but he stared at his slowly exposed hands for a while, but he found nothing.
I don’t know if it was done intentionally, but the other party’s hands were too clean, not to mention scars or something, and there was almost no trace.
There are neither more typical signs of pen holding for students, nor any characteristics that other professions that use hands for a long time will leave behind.
It's so clean that it's almost impossible to use your hands as if you're so old, but everyone knows it's not realistic.
What is this expressing, a simple duel invitation? Still saying that he has been wearing gloves for a long time and has been working in the organization for many years, so he has no trace left on his hands?
It’s not realistic. It’s difficult to complete many fine operations with gloves... This is still an ordinary glove, not a special style...
While Conan was holding his gloves and thinking hard, Tang Ze, with a leisurely expression, had already walked out of the gate of the police station.
While walking out, he put on new gloves on his hand.
Of course, he has a lot of gloves of the same style. It is normal for him to get dirty and broken gloves, as Kummel. There are usually two or three pairs of gloves stuffed in his suitcase alone.
As for the true meaning of his action, it is probably difficult for anyone to understand.
As Tang Ze mentioned before, his hands are a huge flaw in his various identities, so as long as he is in a disguise state, he will definitely wear gloves.
Because the first ten years of his life were in a state of chaotic and unconsciousness, Tang Ze actually only had eight years of living in this world, and his hands lacked the traces they should have.
The real owner of this identity, Hiroshi Hoshikawa, is a thug who has been trained for many years. He not only has scars on his hands, but also has cocoons left after receiving gun training and long-term gun ownership.
As a joker, Tang Ze used more experience and abilities from his previous life, which was also difficult to match with these almost unmarked hands.
Of course, he admitted that he had the element of playing with memes, but this is more of a kind than playing with memes...
"Just just exchanges of etiquette."
Tang Ze smiled and raised his palm, rejecting Yizhilong's invitation to him.
"Don't be so polite, sir."
