Chapter 51: Another Shock to Childhood

It's already the second day to solve the big monster that interferes with the human world.

In this world of science and science, it seems that the efficiency of not only the police, but also the construction workers has been greatly improved, and the floor of the library has begun to be repaired, and it has even reached the stage of waiting for the tiles to dry and fix.

Toru Amamiya still came to the Rice Flower Library with Kotoko Iwanaga today.

I just finished out a big youkai yesterday, and although it didn't take much effort, Toru Amamiya still had to go back and prepare the materials needed to make the body for Akemi Miyano.

So the commission about the tanuki spirit was unfortunately delayed to this day to solve.

Toru Amamiya looked at the ceiling of the elevator, and then at Conan and his party who rushed out the door.

Although it is a puzzle-solving service for the little monster obligation...... But on the way, you can meet Conan, who brings his own case, and this mission seems to be not bad?

And maybe I can rest today with just one case to solve.

If it is really the same as I think, the two cases can be combined into one......

The elevator quickly descended to the first floor, the elevator doors opened, and the sharp-eyed Toru Amamiya saw Officer Twilight standing in the lobby.

And Officer Twilight, who is the owner of the "Brother Fruit", is also very sharp-eyed to see Toru Amamiya.

"Brother Amamiya, you're here too."

Officer Twilight's face flashed with joy, but he seemed to feel that it was a bit inappropriate to openly express such an excessive desire to fish in such a public setting, and he quickly tightened his face again.

"I received a request from a friend, so I came over to take a look," Toru Amamiya explained.

"With all this fanfare, is there something going on?"

"We are here today mainly for Kazuo Tamada, a staff member of this library."

"Mr. Tamada had disappeared the night before, and we received the news that he had been working the night shift in the library the night before, and you were the last person to see him."

Officer Twilight pulled out a photo and showed it.

Probably because he felt that being too enthusiastic about detectives in such a public setting would damage his reputation as a police officer himself.

After saying a few words to Toru Amamiya, Officer Twilight turned his head to look at Director Tsugawa again, and asked solemnly.

"But I went home earlier than Yutian that day, and I don't know what the situation is......"

Director Tsukawa was a little flustered about this sudden question, but he didn't hide it and showed it directly, looking like he was a little nervous because he was suspicious.

Conan had a little guess about the case, but he also had more doubts, so he asked directly about his identity as a child.

"In that case, why raid the library's warehouse? Maybe he was robbed on his way home. ”

Conan asked, pointing to the police searching the warehouse.

"That's because ......" Officer Twilight was about to answer, but was interrupted by another crisp female voice.

"That's because Tamada is a very serious person in life, and every day before getting off work, he will call his wife in the library."

"However, he didn't make that call the night before."

"In other words, it's more likely that he was in an accident while working overtime here, and was taken from the library, or that he was still in the library."

Kotoko Iwanaga picked up Officer Twilight's words and answered Conan's question.

"I'm right, Mr. Officer."

“…… That's right, but how did you know so well, Ms. Iwanaga? ”

Officer Twilight was stunned for a moment, but as a police department who could lead the team to solve the case, he still reacted quickly and asked curiously.

"That's of course because, of course, the commission that Archer and I received yesterday happened to be about the reason for the unexplained disappearance of this Mr. Kazuo Tamada."

Toru Amamiya replied, glancing at Director Tsukawa, who was standing next to him in a curtled manner, with his iron-gray eyes that were difficult to see emotion.

"What a coincidence!"

Officer Twilight was a little happy, although his experience with Toru Amamiya was not as rich as Shinichi Kudo, who had suddenly disappeared recently, and Kogoro Mori, who had suddenly opened his head for the past two days.

But judging from the experience of the previous times, this Amamiya brother solves the case in a strange way, although it looks a bit of a god, but in terms of the speed of solving the case, it is even faster than the Kudo brother.

"So, Brother Amamiya, do you have any clues about Mr. Tamada now?"

Officer Twilight couldn't wait to ask questions and try to settle the case once and for all today.

And Toru Amamiya did not live up to his expectations, muttered for a moment, and spoke directly.

"I already have clues and goals... However, there are some key things that I need to investigate in depth. ”

Toru Amamiya's expression was a little pretentious, and after finishing speaking, he once again glanced at Curator Tsugawa next to him very obviously.

In fact, Toru Amamiya already knows almost the whole story of this case.

As the owner of the title of "rabid dog" within the organization, Toru Amamiya has an extremely keen sense of smell.

Toru Amamiya's sense of smell is more than just a metaphysical sense of danger, homicide, the passing of peers, and the proximity of anomalous characters.

At the same time, it is also a real, physiological sense of smell.

As soon as he stepped into the elevator, Toru Amamiya had already determined that the missing Mr. Tamada had probably suffered misfortune, and the body was lying on the ceiling of the elevator.

The smell of the corpse, which had been put all day long, was not so bad that it could not reach the entire library because of the weather, but it was difficult to ignore the nose of the "rabid dog".

Now that the victim has been identified, the murderer ......

Toru Amamiya glanced at Curator Tsugawa, who was submissive, and wondered if to provoke him again.

Yes, Toru Amamiya has already determined that the murderer is Director Tsukawa.

Although this sanctimonious curator has no problems with his appearance, both his acting skills and his reaction to emergencies are quite good, and he looks like a good seedling of a dark organization.

But it's a pity that although Director Tsukawa seems to be a good seedling who can grow freely in the dark world.

But long before he stepped into the dark world and got the opportunity to grow freely, he was completely destroyed by the temptation from the dark world.

Toru Amamiya had observed Curator Tsugawa when he first saw him.

Although this curator has extremely good acting skills.

But for most people in this world, acting is not everything.

As long as you haven't studied disguise in some strange places, such as Hawaii, no matter how good your acting skills are, it is difficult to hide some physical features.

For example, Toru Amamiya keenly discovered the traces of skin infection and ulceration that Director Tsukawa had been trying to cover with his cuffs.

And the strange sour smell that lingered on his body.

The answer is already clear, a poisonous dog librarian, a serious and honest librarian, Toru Amamiya understands what is going on in this library.

But Toru Amamiya didn't give the answer as straightforwardly as before.

Toru Amamiya, who has always advocated being able to lie down and never stand, and being able to walk and never run, has always liked to throw out the conclusion directly, so that everyone can make up their own reasoning techniques.

But this time the situation is a bit complicated, there are no bells and whistles to kill people, only corpses and a curator who is only suspected of committing a crime.

Relying on these existing things alone may not be enough to form a chain of evidence for Director Tsukawa to admit guilt and be punished, and admit to the police that it was Kazuo Tamada who he killed.

And Toru Amamiya also suspects that this guy, who seems to have very good acting skills and a little psychological quality, will not repent because he was simply caught by the police.

He's going to give this curator a little bit of a punch.

Toru Amamiya looked at Conan, who was lost in thought next to him, and nodded.

And for Conan too.
