[51] Give me ten minutes
The Twilight Police Department pulled Kazama to a corner and said, "Today we received a report that the whereabouts of Mr. Kazuo Tamada, a staff member of this library, have been missing since the night before yesterday, and Mr. Tamada's wife reported that it has been more than forty hours now. ”
"So?" asked Kazama.
The Twilight Police Department replied, "I just talked to Director Tsugawa here in detail, and the night before yesterday, Mr. Tamada worked overtime with him in the library. After a pause, he added: "But he said that he left earlier than Mr. Yutian that day, and he didn't know anything about what happened after that." I also asked directly if I was attacked by someone on the way home. ”
Kazama Kazama chuckled, without saying a word, without thinking about the library, and asked directly on the way home, which was too strange!
The Twilight Police Department noticed Kazama's expression and said softly, "Mr. Tamada's wife said that Mr. Tamada is usually a very serious person, and he usually calls home from the library before he goes home, so that her wife can prepare to fetch water and food in advance." Strangely, however, he had not called home the night before. In other words, Mr. Tamada had an accident before he got off work. ”
Kazama nodded faintly.
After thinking about it for a while, Kazama asked, "What about the police department, did you have any traces of someone breaking into it during the inspection?"
Twilight shook her head and said, "I didn't find the slightest thing. ”
Then, Twilight sighed again, "In the two hours before you arrived, our team conducted a detailed survey of the entire library and found nothing wrong. ”
"So, there is only one possibility now, Mr. Tamada must have been taken out of here by someone, and if so, there is a good chance that he is still alive. ”
Originally, the Twilight Police Department didn't have to explain so much with Kazama.
But thinking of the last idol secret room murder incident, when the other party solved the problem for him, he was not surprised, and he was at ease, he couldn't help but put a glimmer of hope on Kazama.
"I see. Kazama's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded.
Conan quietly glanced at the curator Tsukawa, his suspicion was still the greatest, after all, he was the last one to be with Mr. Tamada!
Ayumi and they also reacted.
They just weren't as reserved as Conan, and everyone looked at Tsugawa with suspicion.
Probably noticing the eyes of the crowd.
Tsukawa walked over step by step, and said with some amusement: "This really has nothing to do with me, didn't I just say it? I watched Yutian go out yesterday, and didn't you already search the library just now?"
"The curator is so proud, it seems that it really has nothing to do with you?" Kazama Teru's originally calm expression disappeared, his lips slightly curled, and he smiled maliciously.
Looking at the smug that flashed across the corners of his mouth as he spoke, Kazama smiled too.
Seemingly.
The curator seemed to be smug about his modus operandi - but it didn't take long for him to stop laughing.
Because, the moment the forensic doctor appears at the scene of the crime, all his methods to confuse the people will turn into a ridiculous comedy and farce!
※※※
Kazama's warm gaze slowly swept over everyone.
Everyone felt that his eyes seemed to carry a pressure, majestic like a mountain, and the pressure was overwhelming.
"This police officer has a dignified appearance, and you must have great talent to be invited by the police department to investigate the case in the museum!" said the curator Tsugawa.
Kazama's expression was constricted, and he said expressionlessly: "One eye is slightly narrowed, the corners of one side of the mouth are slightly raised, and the expression of contempt is typical." I'm only about twenty years old, and you don't like me investigating this case, and you don't think I'm capable of doing it. The words of great talent sound flattering, but in fact they are sarcastic. ”
The curator Tsukawa was stunned, and his eyes showed surprise.
He didn't know where that expression came from, but what the young man said behind was really right for him!
This kid's eyes are poisonous enough, and his observation is extremely keen.
The curator was horrified, and he looked at Kazama again, who was this young man?
Conan also looked at Kazama with surprise on his face. One eye is slightly narrowed, and the corners of one side of the mouth are slightly raised?
How could he see that he just smiled? This level of observation is too great.
His gaze deepened.
※※※
"The curator's greetings don't need to be for me. ”
Kazama Teru chuckled twice: "Hehe, but I think it's a little strange, the business situation of this library doesn't look very good, why is there so many precious calligraphy and paintings in Director Tsukawa's office?"
He gestured to the office behind Director Tsugawa.
At this moment, the gate is open, and there are many paintings and calligraphy hanging on the surrounding walls.
At first glance, it looks inconspicuous, but after careful observation, Kazama concludes that they are all masterpieces.
"And this..."Kazama Kazama chuckled, walked into his office, picked up the tourmaline on the desk, and asked curiously, "Curator, this should be made of ivory, right?"
Between words.
His hand shook as if he didn't hold it steadily, and the tourmaline in his hand almost slipped off his hand and fell to the ground.
"Ahh These are just generic replica collectibles, it's my personal hobby..."
Imitation?
Why are you so excited about imitations?
Kazama in the office and Conan outside the office both laughed.
"Well, I think that's it, I still have a lot of things to do. Since your police haven't found anything, and you haven't asked why, please go back quickly, our library is also closing!!" Tsugawa waved his hand and made a gesture of rushing people.
He had a vague premonition that this young man gave himself a particularly dangerous feeling, like a mouse being targeted by a cat, so he was flustered and didn't want to continue to get along with the other party.
"This..."The Twilight Police Department was helpless, after all, they had indeed been searching for two hours just now.
It seems that the library has been surveyed inside and out, and indeed no missing person or other clues have been found.
"Collect..." Just as Twilight was about to shout to close the team, Kazama Teru walked out of the office, without showing a trace of expression on his face, and said lightly, "Police Department, I want to ask you to give me ten minutes." ”
Twilight's face was stunned, and then he was overjoyed, and instead of refusing, he asked, "Is it enough?"
"More than enough!" Kazama said with a faint smile, with a faint light in his eyes.
Curator Tsukawa's thin cheeks twitched, and he snorted coldly, with disdain: "You don't have hair on your mouth and can't do things firmly, you are wasting our time!"
