Chapter 111: Spoiler Soul
"Is this the surprise you were talking about?" Amuro flipped through the photo frame in front of him and looked at Tang Ze, who was standing in front of him like an invite.
Tang Ze nodded to the two middle-aged men in the center of the photo: "This is the diplomat who died in the murder this morning, Isao Tsujimura." ”
"Well, I've heard that." Amuro had a strange face, and he knew very well about the situation where Tang Ze just went upstairs to say hello to his neighbors, but turned into a witness to a murder.
I feel that these detectives, as long as they are a little famous, have this strange accident physique, even with Tang Ze...... No, Tang Ze himself now has an identity as a detective, and he may have been covered by this curse.
Tang Ze couldn't hear Amuro's inner complaint, so he continued to explain: "This is the congressman I mentioned, swallowing Shigehiko." ”
"Isao Tsujimura has something to do with the organization?" When Tang Ze said the name, Amuro understood it.
"Yes, he is likely to be one of the low-level members of Shigehiko Tsuguchi's family, and the murderer who happened this morning was Tsujimura Xun's wife, Tsujimura Koe, and her motive was that Tsujimura Xun used unclean means to persecute and even force her ex-husband to death...... This is a clue with some value. Tang Ze's fingertips moved from the smiling two people on the photo frame to the background on the side, "There is one more question." Judging from the appearance and clothing of the two, when they took this group photo, it is estimated that the farthest was five or six years ago, since Tsujimura Xun was already involved in the organization twenty years ago, why did the two of them leave a group photo that seemed to be commemorative at this time? ”
Amuro picked up the frame, pasted the picture closer, and began to identify the other subjects in the background, either blurry or clear.
Soon his eyes lit up slightly.
"It's a drinking party, probably a private one. They're celebrating something. Amuro lowered his frame and looked at Karasawa.
Tang Ze grinned and smiled out a neat row of upper teeth, like a feline with its mouth open ready to bite its prey: "So guess how many members of the Swallowing Family who are related to the organization will be at the drinking party?" ”
"All of them, I guess." Amuro also laughed, also showing his white upper teeth, and his eyes were sharp and bright.
The windows of the newly completed office are bright and clean, and two bottles of fake wine sit on either side of the reception sofa, looking at each other and smiling.
"I'm going to arrange for Kazami to investigate the banquet...... There is a lot of content in this group photo, and it should not be difficult to locate the location. Well done, junior. Amuro stuffed the picture frame back into the paper shell in which Karasawa had wrapped it, and said meaningfully, "Take the evidence directly from the scene of the murder, and this is also the case." That's not bad. ”
"It's good if the boss is satisfied." Tang Ze flicked the newly received business card in his hand.
On the wood-colored business card, the name outlined by the gilded thin line shines in the midday sun.
"Amuro Detective Agency"
「Akechi Goro」
"Wise Goro"

"Where have you run to......
Standing in front of the door of 2-chome 20 Banji in Yonkacho, Tokyo, Conan, who was short in his hands, asked the white-haired boy who walked by with his hands in his pockets.
Tang Ze glanced at the messy and shallow footprints at his feet, knowing that he was afraid that he had been wandering around the door for a while, and raised the shopping bag in his hand: "Where else can I go, even if it is a strange thief, I still want to buy daily necessities and eat." ”
Conan stared at his gray hair and sunglasses, which were dazzling in the sun, but did not speak.
As if he understood what he was thinking, Joker, who was opening the door with the key, didn't reply, "Of course you can't just go shopping like this, it's too conspicuous." I just changed it on the way back. ”
This is a lie, Tang Ze received a call from Hoshikawa Hui and chased him all the way from the café, and the cross-dressing was changed on the way.
In fact, even if you don't consider the neon of the two-thorned ape, there are men and women in strange costumes everywhere on the streets of Tokyo, and Tang Ze's appearance is really not very conspicuous.
Tang Ze pushed open the door, made a gesture of invitation to Conan, took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack at the door.
Conan glanced around for the first time, a detached house with a layout very similar to his own.
Like his house, there is the living room on the right hand side of the door, and the hall is connected to the staircase up to the second floor.
I heard that the previous owner of the house died here, and the body was hung by his wife from the railing on the second floor in front of the entrance...... Ahem.
Holding back a lot of very rude associations, Conan withdrew his gaze and followed Joker into the parlor.
Obviously, although the interior of the house has not been replaced, the furniture has been completely replaced, and it is all brand new, but it can be seen that there are traces of recent human life, except for the cosmetics spread on the coffee table in the living room are slightly out of harmony, and it can indeed be inferred that the owner of the house is a young man, no bad life habits, and things are neatly organized.
Considering that the owner of the house is a weirdo who cross-dresses every day, and the mess of cosmetics and extra extra clothes makes sense, it seems that Joker didn't lie to himself, he does live here now.
After habitually reasoning, Conan walked to the couch in the living room and sat down, taking the bottle of juice handed by Joker.
"What's the matter today, little detective?" Tang Ze walked to the sofa freely, straightened the pillows, and found a comfortable direction for himself, Ge You slumped on the sofa, "Are you going to ask me about the case two days ago?" ”
"Yes...... I'd like to ask you about that day, when I briefly recovered. Conan struggled and sat up straight from the soft couch, wouldn't it be a loss of poise to buy such a bean bag sofa that could easily sink into the parlor and put it in the living room...... I really don't know what this guy's hobby is.
"I guessed so." Joker nodded, "What do you want to ask me, about why I knew that drinking baijiu would turn back?" Or something else? ”
"Joker, you're obviously in a hostile relationship with that organization, but you seem to know a lot about it...... What is your relationship with the organization? Conan grabbed the juice in his hand, the cold drink condensed tiny droplets of water on the outer wall, making his palms feel as slippery as sweating, "And that day, when you rushed to Tsujimura's house in disguise as me, why did you know what I was wearing at the time in advance and came directly in the school uniform of Didan...... Are you spying on me? ”
Oops, careless.
Tang Ze blinked, and sighed in his heart, for his own negligence, but also for Conan's keenness.
The detectives in these reasoning works are really not easy to fool, and if they make a slight mistake, they will be caught and tracked.
Fortunately, when he changed his appearance to Kudo Shinichi that day, he had already shown off his reasoning in front of everyone for a while......
Tang Ze reorganized the logic very quickly, he turned his head in a pensive look, thought for a while, and said: "There are a lot of questions, I want to think about where to start." Let's start with the kind of drug that makes you like this, this is definitely the thing you're most interested in. It is called APTX4869 in the organization, and it is a special drug that is still under development...... You'd better keep the idea that Kudo Shinichi is getting smaller, or I'm not sure what crazy the organization will do. ”
