Hearing Zong Takuya's question, Yusuke Sakata couldn't help but be in awe.

It's really worthy of being the section chief, and the person has already guessed the situation at the scene before he arrives at the scene.

Thinking of this, Yusuke Sakata's tone couldn't help but be more respectful: "Yes, section chief, in addition to Heiji, there are also Maori detectives from Tokyo at the scene. ”

"By the way, it seems that Mr. Mori should have brought his family to Osaka to play, and Miss Xiaolan and Conan's children are also there."

Hearing that Conan was also at the scene, Zong Takuya showed a clear look.

That's right, only the existence of Conan at the scene is the most positive murder in the Kexue world.

Zong Takuya has completely ruled out the possibility of suicide at this point - he killed, he must have killed! How could a suicide case occur so easily in a place where Conan was there.

"Watch your surroundings, Sakata, I'll go over now.

By the way, was this murder done by those third-party people who followed the members of the tour group? ”

Zong Takuya suddenly remembered the suspicious third party mentioned by Yusuke Sakata, so he asked.

"It's not them." Yusuke Sakata replied affirmatively: "Those people basically don't show up when the tour group members are traveling together, it's like"

"It's as if there are their accomplices in the tour group." Sotakuya picked up Yusuke Sakata's speculation by the way.

In fact, Zong Takuya had suspicions in this regard after learning about the strange behavior of the third-party suspicious person.

When the tour group members disperse, in order to keep abreast of the movements of these people, a third party will send people to follow them.

When the members of the tour group gather, since there are people from the three forces in the group, there is no need to send additional people to follow them.

So, who should be the third party hidden in the tour group?

When Zong Takuya hung up the phone, it happened that Hattori Heizou and Enshiro Toyama in the box had put away their phones.

So Zong Takuya asked tentatively: "Is it the case of the castle tower?" ”

Enshiro Toyama nodded: "It seems that we are about to start a joint search now." ”

After asking the hotel to find a substitute driver, the three of them took a car to the castle tower.

As the sedan drove near the castle tower, Heizou Hattori noticed that the media around the murder scene had arrived and started taking pictures, and frowned and asked the driver to stop the car.

Now this kind of scene, Hattori Heizou as the head of the Osaka Prefecture Police Headquarters is not close to the past, once Hattori Heizou appears at the scene, the media will inevitably pay more attention to this incident.

Excessive exposure is not conducive to the investigation of the case.

After receiving Hattori Heizou's eyes, Toyama Ginjiro made a call and called the Otaki Police Department, who was in charge of the scene.

Officer Otaki is the police department of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters Forcible Investigation Department, and his existence is similar to that of Twilight Thirteen to Kudo Shinichi to Heiji Hattori.

They are all tools planted by high school detectives in the police (laughs).

Receiving an order from Toyama Ginjiro, the Otaki Police Department rushed to the scene as soon as possible, and then narrated the case to the three people in the car.

When the Otaki Police Department said that the members of this tour group were not only traveling, but also role-playing during the trip, Takuya Sowagi only felt a chill.

To be reasonable, Zong Takuya, a Japanese, thinks this kind of behavior is too middle-class.

I really admire that these middle-aged people, who are in their 30s and nearly 40s, have such a good time.

Zong Takuya adjusted his sitting posture slightly, and secretly glanced at Hattori Heizou and Toyama Ginjiro.

can only say that he really deserves to be a big man, and he is still so calm when he hears such an embarrassing situation.

The Otaki Police Department covered up his embarrassment with a dry cough, and then talked about the case.

When he said that the deceased Yuji Kato had tried to grab the umbrella in Hattori's hand before he died, Takuya Zong frowned.

Speaking of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, we have to mention his horse-print "Golden Tang Umbrella", which happens to be the role to be played today by drawing lots every day in this Taiko Hideyoshi eight-day tour.

The one who was chosen to be Toyotomi Hideyoshi today was the youngest of the tour group - Shigehiko Wakisaka.

Wakisaka

The deceased's death message pointed directly to Shigehiko Wakisaka, and Takuya Zong also found his motive for killing from his surname.

Masahiko Wakisaka, who was killed 13 years ago, and Shigehiko Wakisaka also have the same surname Wakisaka, and judging from their age, Shigehiko Wakisaka almost happens to be the grandchildren of Masashi Wakisaka.

If the motive for murder is made into a fan-shaped diagram, vendetta will definitely occupy a large part of it.

Zong Takuya, who deduced the real murderer from the narrative of the Hattaki Police Department, immediately wanted to discuss it with Hattori Heizou, but when he turned around, he found that Hattori Heizou had sent the Hataki Police Department away without a word.

"Minister Hattori, I probably know who the murderer is."

"You mean to say Shigehiko Wakisaka, right?"

"Huh?

Now that you know, how can you pay it back."

Takuya was a little surprised, since Hattori Heizou had already judged who the real murderer was, why did he let the Otaki Police Department return to the scene lightly?

It's not that Zong Takuya looks down on the Otaki Police Department, but in fact, the ability of this police department is probably equivalent to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Twilight Thirteen.

The best thing about the Otaki Police Department is probably that by the time Hattori enters the Metropolitan Police Department, this Otaki Police Department may be able to mix up the dragon's work.

This is a hardcore loyal minister who stands next to the "prince" of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.

Ginjiro Toyama, who was also sitting in the back seat, answered Zong Takuya's doubts, and he picked up the evidence bag that had just been sent by the Otaki Police Department and handed it to Zong Takuya, who was the co-pilot.

Inside the transparent evidence bag was a pottery shard stained with gold chips on the inside.

13Three years ago, a charred corpse was found in the moat of Osaka Castle, because there was no document on the corpse that could prove its identity, and the moat caused serious damage to the information about the corpse.

So the case has not been solved. ”

"But on the corpse's body, we found a pottery shard in the shape of a gourd mouth engraved with the words 893.

On the pottery shard, we found half of the fingerprints left on it.

The inner walls of the pottery shard were like this one, stained with gold chips. ”

After Ginshiro Toyama finished speaking, Hattori Heizou continued: "After the nameless charred corpse case, there were many robberies and murders in Osaka in a row, and because the style of the crime scene was highly similar, the search section did a joint case.

In one of the crime scenes, there was a gangster who negligently left his voice and a fingerprint.

After comparison, half of the fingerprints on the scorched pottery shards were highly similar to the fingerprints left by the robbery and homicide case. ”

"Officer Zong, do you know what that means?"

Zong Takuya nodded: "This means that there is a high probability that the scorched corpse case has some unknown connection with the serial robbery and murder case, and today's case may also have some connection with the two cases back then." ”

"No, it should be said that these three cases are necessarily related!"

Zong Takuya said categorically to the two.
