Chapter 60: A Blind Eye

Led by Tang Ze, Conan easily passed the guards.

As soon as they entered the first warehouse, Tang Ze and the others found that the four suspected people, Dr. Asa and Officer Twilight were all in the warehouse.

"Huh? Why are you all here? Tang Ze asked out loud after seeing a few people.

"Ah Song's leg injury is very serious, and we have to take him to the hospital." Director Mikami explained.

"He's injured his foot like that, I'm afraid he won't be able to play Godzilla for a while..."Ah Kasa looked at Ah Song, who was being helped up, with a painful expression on his face, and couldn't help but regret.

"Don't talk about Godzilla, even ordinary people can't play the role anymore." Anda put his arm on Ah Song's arm, looking angry.

I don't know if I'm talking to Dr. Asasa or if I'm alluding to Atsune giving up Godzilla and wanting to play a normal role.

Of course, although he looked full of resentment, he still held Ah Song very attentively

Seeing that Ah Song was about to be taken away by several people, Conan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Uncle Ah Song, didn't you show us Godzilla's claws at noon?" Is there a foot? ”

"Of course!" Ah Song asked in a cold sweat, "What's wrong?" What's the matter? ”

"It's fine." Conan laughed, and the two of them fell silent.

Watching a few people take Ah Song away, Conan immediately searched for something in the column marked "Knife", but soon felt a pain in his fingers.

When he took out his finger, there was a long cut on his index finger that had been cut by a knife.

"Wait... If that's the case, then that's the only one who is the culprit!! Conan turned to look at the four who were walking out the door, his expression solemn.

"Is that what happened..."

Tang Ze on the side also showed a clear look, and at the same time sighed at the strength of Conan's reasoning ability, although he reminded the other party by chance, but then it was the other party who reminded him.

If Conan hadn't found so many clues later, Tang Ze wouldn't have seen things as they were.

"It's just that he's too good at self-diversion... Thought I had seen through everything..."

Tang Ze was amused and dissatisfied with the situation.

He hopes to have the real strength and confidence to face all this, not the attic in the air, otherwise it will be demolished one day sooner or later.

At this moment, he is even more eager to become a real detective, and he doesn't want to follow Conan every time and find the truth after the other party's prompting.

Although his current strength is not as good as the other party, fortunately, time is on his side, this chaotic timeline allows him to continue to learn and enhance his ability, and the system brings the possibility of becoming stronger quickly.

"Looks like the case can be over." Tang Ze said with a smile to Conan.

"Ah, then please." Conan looked at Tang Ze and said, "With you, you don't need me to play." ”

"Well, leave it to me." Tang Ze waved his hand to stop the four people who were about to leave.

"I'm sorry, I can't let you go just yet." Tang Ze looked at the dazed crowd and showed a smile: "Because the prisoner is between you!" ”

"Nani!!" Officer Twilight looked shocked and said, "Is what you said true?" Tang Zejun!? ”

"Of course." Tang Ze nodded and smiled: "If you are not sure, how can I talk nonsense." ”

"Then Tang Zejun should know it as a person who has experienced it personally, right?"

Officer Twilight looked solemn, "You went after the prisoner in the Godzilla holster, and after the chase to the rooftop, there was no one.

Only the costumes burned and fell to the ground below.

If you know who the culprit is, solve the mystery first! ”

"Well, this technique is actually very simple, but for a while we fell into inertial thinking, and we didn't see it immediately."

Faced with Officer Twilight's question, Tang Ze chuckled and began to explain: "I thought about it again, when I went to chase the prisoner again, I only saw the prisoner's tail with Miss Grace and Conan.

This tail is a solid tail, because the other person is wearing Godzilla's holster, and Godzilla's tail disappears at the turn.

But in reality, none of us saw the prisoner actually go up the stairs. ”

"But it's an indisputable fact that there are paint footprints on the stairs, from the aisle to the top of the stairs leading to the rooftop!" Officer Twilight continued to ask.

"That's the key to this approach!" Tang Ze looked at Officer Twilight and asked, "If I said that those footprints were made in advance by the prisoner in order to disguise himself as climbing onto the rooftop, would you believe Officer Twilight?" ”

"How can you believe it?" Officer Twilight said angrily, "If those footprints had been in the hallway from the beginning, they would have been discovered a long time ago, wouldn't they?" ”

"But what if you only put footprints on the staircase that leads to the rooftop?"

Tang Ze asked rhetorically: "There are steps leading to the rooftop, generally speaking, few people will go to that place, if you don't go to the rooftop on purpose, then it's normal to be missed, right?"

I am sure of this because the murderer made a big mistake! ”

"Mistakes?" Hearing this, Officer Twilight looked at Tang Ze and said, "In other words, you have evidence that those are the footprints that the prisoner imprinted in advance?" ”

"Yes!"

Tang Ze affirmed: "This evidence is that there are traces of Godzilla's tail rubbing the paint on the ground in the aisle, and on the staircase steps leading to the rooftop, there are only clean footprints and no traces of the tail dragging the paint!"

I'm afraid the prisoners didn't think of this at the time!

In other words, after the prisoner fled to the corner and left our sight, he did not go to the roof at all, but quickly came to the bottom of the stairs and took off Godzilla's holster!

After that, he took the prop suit to the utility room at the corner of the stairs and lit the Godzilla holster and threw it through the window to the ground.

In this way, we who followed the footprints naturally felt that the prisoner had escaped to the rooftop.

But there was no human figure on the rooftop, only a Godzilla holster that burned and fell to the ground!

So it became the peculiar case of "the prisoner disappeared from the rooftop"! ”

To put it simply, this is more like another manifestation of "blindness", which makes people only focus on seeing the leaves in front of them, but ignore the surrounding affairs.

And in this case, those traces of paint footprints not only guided the actions of Tang Ze and others, but also made them ignore other very simple possibilities.

Because he was in the middle of the chase and time was pressing, he saw that the footprints had spread upstairs, so his brain did not hesitate to command his body to follow, but he ignored the stairs and the direction down.

And that's exactly what the prisoners want to see.
