Act 303: Darkness in Miniature (3)
"I see!" This sentence prompted Kogoro Mori, who shouted, "Mr. Itakura was first wrapped in a quilt and tied to a stool with a rope. In this way, Itakura, who could not break free, could only take off one of his socks, pick up the Go pieces with his toes, and play this game with a death message. ”
Soma snorted disdainfully and said, "Didn't I say that? Death information like this is nothing at all. Because anyone can fake it......"
As the words fell, Gran Lewe reached out and grabbed Ryusuke Soma's wrist. He said sharply: "No, the prisoner is you!" Because you're the only one of the three who doesn't know Go and Braille. And the ironclad proof that you are the murderer is your watch! ”
"Hand ...... Watch ......" Soma looked at his newly purchased watch in confusion, wondering what was wrong with it.
Glenlevy explained, "Since Mr. Itakura left such a message of death, it means that he once touched Mr. Soma's watch with his hand. There must still be Mr. Itakura's fingerprints on it. You don't mind waiting for the police to come and do a fingerprint comparison, right? ”
"Uh...... This ......" Soma began to become flustered and confused.
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
Ryusuke Soma was downstairs just now and said that the watch was bought five days ago, and it stands to reason that Soma, who hadn't seen Mr. Itakura for more than a week, couldn't have Itakura's fingerprints on the watch.
If the fingerprints really exist, it means that Ryusuke Soma must have been the one who killed Itakura.
When Gran Lewi took his watch off his wrist, Ryusuke Soma's expression seemed relieved.
He said slowly: "If you want to check, just go and check." I think this watch is already covered in the guy's fingerprints...... At the beginning, I took advantage of the fact that he was all focused on this watch, and I put sleeping pills in the wine, fainted him, and then wrapped him in layers. ”
Naito and Subei were still a little unconvinced, after all, they had been partners for so long, and the two had no obvious disputes, so they didn't know Soma's motives at all.
In fact, as early as twenty years ago, when Taku Itakura was still unknown, Soma was a partner with him. The two had agreed to make a chess game that could beat all the software, but after Itakura became famous, he forgot about the previous agreement and put off the game again and again.
Three days ago, when Ryusuke Soma finally found Itakura's whereabouts, Itakura actually said to him, "How long do you think a person should be able to wait?" ”
In the past 20 years, Soma has been borrowing money everywhere and investing all his money in Itakura Taku. Confident that he would make an epic piece of software, it turned out to make him wait.
He didn't know if it would be another twenty years if he waited any longer.
So,Disappointment after disappointment made Soma Ryusuke angry.,Finally, I solved this so-called CG game master with my own hands.。
After explaining these things to everyone, Soma sighed with emotion: "However, it is too long for us to test each other for twenty years, and once time and space are separated, whether it is people's hearts or dreams, everything will become ......."
When he said this, Mao Lilan, who was standing at the door, unconsciously connected Kudo Shinichi.
Her heart was full of mixed feelings and wavering.
In the end, the police officer of the Search Division who arrived took Ryyusuke Soma away without much effort and cleaned up Takura Itakura's body.
The space that had just been filled with people and chatter instantly became empty, and when the lights went out, only the light moonlight shone through the window on the cold floor.
Because Mori Kogoro assisted Officer Twilight in taking notes, there were only three people on the way back: Glen Lew, Moriland, and Conan.
At the beginning of the night in Tokyo, the trees are lit up with multi-colored lights, and the snow scattered in the sky looks very warm. It's a pity that the three people walking on the street look like each other, and each has their own thoughts.
Naturally, Glenlevy also wants to maintain his status as a high school student and enjoy this peaceful life. After all, since he joined the London police at the age of 20 to fight against criminal organizations, he has been in dire straits.
If you haven't seen the sun, I'm afraid you'll always get used to the darkness.
Conan, on the other hand, was thrilled that he had no trouble getting the mobile disk on which Takura had written his diary. He didn't notice the lonely Maolilan next to him, and he was trying to think about the day he fought against the dark organization:
This time, there has been some progress. Now that there are clues about the people in the Black Order, all you need to do is use Dr. Asasa's computer to thoroughly check the magnetic plates.
Suddenly, Conan felt a little relieved to hold his hand. On the side, Maolilan's footsteps stopped.
"What's wrong, Sister Xiaolan?"
Seeing this, Glenlevy also stopped, and looked at her blankly.
Because of Grant Levy's presence, Xiaolan was embarrassed to open her heart completely and tell her heart. Just holding back the tears to prevent it from dripping, the crystal ball kept rolling in the eye sockets.
Soma Ryusuke's words made her deeply understand.
The wait was too hard, and the uneasiness made her wonder if Shinichi, who was separated from her, would change her mind about herself like those people.
After a pause, Xiaolan took a deep breath, pulled out a far-fetched smile, shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired......" said and began to take steps again.
I don't know how long they walked, and a man with a cigarette walked out of a phone booth not far in front of the three of them.
The man wore a black knitted hat, and his dark green eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
Conan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he recognized him at a glance as Shuichi Akai, a passenger wearing a mask in the bus incident last time. And Satsuki once revealed the identity of this person, who was a search officer for the FBI in the United States.
At this time, Shuichi Akai also just turned around and looked at Conan and the three of them.
The first thing Akai Shuichi noticed was Moriran with tears in the corners of her eyes, because she was too similar to someone in her memory.
"Why are you crying again?"
Mao Lilan, who was asked, was stunned and looked at the man in front of him carefully. At the same time, Conan wondered why the man would say the words "cry again".
Could it be that Xiaolan and this person have met somewhere?
When Shuichi Akai met Maoliran in New York a year ago, she was deeply impressed by the fact that she was scared and shed tears because of the silver-haired murder demon.
He asked again, "Why are you crying all the time?" ”
Xiaolan also remembered what happened before and recognized the man in front of her.
She rubbed the corners of her eyes angrily, and said coquettishly: "Can't I cry? ”
Seeing Mao Lilan's determined eyes, Akemi Miyano's appearance flickered in front of his eyes, and then instantly dispersed.
The cigarette stick in his mouth was crumbling, and Akai Shuichi held it in his mouth and whispered, "No, I just suddenly thought of a woman who looks very similar to you, a silly woman who pretends to be calm on the surface, but is crying behind her back." ”
As he spoke, his gaze casually glanced at Glen Lewi's body, but his body couldn't help but shake.
The surprise made him speechless, so he took off the cigarette directly.
"You ......"
