While the four of them were chatting, Tang Ze finished checking the reward settlement for this case.
After suppressing the urge to draw a lottery after having a generous balance, Karasawa began to eat curry rice.
But as he ate, his thoughts returned to the case Hattori Heiji just mentioned.
To be honest, most of Ke Xue's cases in the middle and later stages are "watery". If this point is put into reality, it can be regarded as an advantage and disadvantage for Tang Ze.
The advantage is that the case is relatively "watery", which means that it takes little effort to solve it, but the disadvantage is that the impression may not be deep enough and there are fewer and fewer precursors.
For example, in the very beginning of Moon Shadow Island, you know which case is going to happen as long as you have a plan to go there, but not later.
Most of the later cases were the same, with no two points at all, which is why Tang Ze relied more and more on himself.
Even if Conan appears to remind him that there is a murder, he can still only prevent it in advance. Whether he can successfully prevent it depends on luck.
But this case was different. After listening to Hattori and Kazuha's description of the case, he felt that the case sounded very familiar.
In addition, there are not many impressive cases in the mid-to-late period classics. After sorting out some characteristics of this case, Tangze's mind overlapped with a certain mid-to-late period classic case.
At that moment, Wakamatsu-Sinxiang suddenly interrupted Miwaka-Sinxiang with a roar: "The baumkuchen I brought back are all bad! I'll cut them for you to eat slowly!"
"Sister Yonehara, let me cut it, and you can help put it on the plate." Satake said with a wicked smile.
Everyone looked at each other, and the boy said with a frightened face: "You originally wanted to help me at that time, but who knew that before you got to the bathroom, you found me lying on the ground covered in blood."
"Click."
Jiang Xin Mingxiang explained with a smile: "I said that although he is only a junior high school student, but his head is very stupid, naturally I have mentioned his appearance, so you can recognize it at a glance."
"Bad, bad, bad..." Junsheng Fujinami smiled and immediately shut up before speaking again.
The main reason is that the relationship between the two is really like that of a mother and son, and the other party's tone of voice is not the same at all, so that's why Da Lan didn't ask.
"Sorry, Ikuro..."
"That's enough! That's not enough yet!!"
Putting the curry he bought in the trunk, Hattori drove the seven people towards the destination mentioned by Karasawa Heiji.
"This is..." Tangze Kanxiang pondered.
Tangze seemed to have thought of something before seeing Xiang's introduction, and immediately said: "By the way, on the day your husband passed away, everyone at Shigeizawa Villa had not arrived yet except for the housekeeper who went out to buy soy sauce."
Hearing this, everyone showed a look of surprise. They were definitely not related by blood, like a stepson and a stepmother. It is understandable that the relationship between the other party and Karasawa Kanxiang is so similar.
But after waiting for a reply from the other party, I thought about it and sent it to another person.
Of course, he would need to further go to the crime scene and see the bathroom tiles to fully confirm whether it was really the case in his memory.
"By the way, Satake is here!" Jiang Xin Mingxiang shouted into the room before introducing the two of them.
Then the scene in the restroom came into view.
After hearing what Hattori said, Karasawa Heiji stood up and said, "We've had our late lunch, now let's go visit."
"Yes, what's the matter? It's just that you bought the Baumkuchen cake that the president hates eating as usual." The middle-aged woman lifted the cake in her hand: "But looking at it now, I'm afraid none of it is enough to eat." Ai
Thinking of that, Hattori turned off the light and walked out of the bathroom and walked slowly to the living room.
At that moment, the small door of the living room opened, and a boy with dark red hair leaned out in a pink apron.
The furnishings outside are all the same as before, including commonly used towels, toothbrushes and other items, so the space is smaller than that of a typical home.
Just as everyone was changing their shoes, a fat man in a red shirt suddenly walked out of the room and said to Jiang Xin Mingxiang: "You are about to starve to death. When are they going to ask you to wait until dinner?
!!”
Tangze Kanxiang nodded and said, "Because of that, I even forgot about your birthday party."
"This is Misumi Satake. You are your husband's secretary. Now, I have become your secretary."
"Hey, Fujinami!" The middle-aged woman shouted out loud when she heard the words of the young man in front of her. She was obviously reminding me to pay attention when speaking.
"I see, I thought Mr. Wakamatsu hates doing carpentry on weekends." When he walked to the living room, he heard Karasawa Heiji's voice of surprise.
"So, he was the one who saw the disappearing death message?" Hattori looked at Yoshika Matsuzin and asked.
"Who is this?" Hattori looked at the short-haired man's back with a hint of depth in his eyes.
Before saying all that, the young boy bowed to everyone and apologized: "I'm so sorry. When you came back, you heard everyone's voices inside."
"Because whenever I don't have a chance, I will mention your husband."
It was not those things that attracted Jiang Xin's attention, but the ordinary decoration in the bathroom.
"He saw this right after he disappeared. He should still remember it, right?"
At that moment, the small door in front of everyone was opened from the inside. Everyone turned and looked in front of them and found a middle-aged woman with gray hair wearing a dark green suit.
"Yu Lang just said that I'm not hungry anymore and I'm not feeling a little anxious. He can help cut the Baumkuchen and let me cushion it first."
"Is this your son?" Seeing the conversation between the two begin, Dalan couldn't help but ask.
"I know, I know." Hearing what the other party said, the young man nodded and started talking.
Tangze looked at the fragrance and said, "Well... let's make another cup of black tea. That way I should be able to calm down a bit."
Because the case was encountered near noon, everyone had to make up for lunch in the restaurant before solving the case. It was not even late in the evening.
And once the verification is completed, I can no longer match the character information in my mind with the people outside the case based on their characteristics.
"Now you go down and make tea." The young beauty bowed slightly to everyone and immediately walked towards the living room.
You also occasionally hear from sir about his unsuccessful reasoning showdown with this low-school detective Kudo Shinichi, who is very unknown in Kanto."
"Everyone, please stop standing and retreat slowly." Karasawa Kanxiang extended his hand and everyone left the house. Seeing this, everyone took off the shoes that the other party had prepared at the entrance.
"It's the detective you told him a few days ago who is not our companion." Jiang Xin Mingxiang explained with a smile.
In the edited text message, I repeated the summary of the case situation that Karasawa Heiji said, and then sent my thoughts to the other party, asking him to verify it.
Next, you need to wait and see, quietly waiting for the right opportunity.
Tangze Kanxiang looked at the other person and smiled apologetically: "The butler just went out to buy soy sauce. He needs to be patient a little longer."
But this is just Hattori's consistent cautious habit, and it does not mean that I am not sure. For my rigorous character, even if 99% has not been confirmed and the remaining 1% needs to be verified personally, I will still be careless.
Of course, before leaving, we agreed to buy a lot of vacuum-packed curry bags, ready to take them home and eat them quickly.
Seeing such featureless tiles, Hattori immediately confirmed that the case happening now was not the classic case in his mind - "the design of poison and fantasy".
"Excuse me, who are those two gentlemen?" Hattori looked at Enobu Akira and asked about their identities.
"Bad." Satake bad actually responded and walked towards the big dining table where the cake was placed.
"Yes, the president probably thought that things would turn into what they are now." Fujinami Junsheng stood in front of the sofa and agreed.
Of course I did it for convenience, but to make sure that the case we were experiencing behind the scenes was the same case as the one in my mind. 毐
"He will tell you when you come back that your dinner today must be smaller than the rest!" Wakamatsu Qinxiang warned in agreement, and then turned and left.
"After this, you want to borrow the restroom first. Do you know where it is?" Hattori looked at Enobu Akira and asked.
"Hey, is dinner still bad?"
That compliment made Kazuya look at Karasawa Heiji consciously, but at this moment, I looked up at Conan with a look of shame on my face. The two of them talked to each other and saw a trace of embarrassment in each other's eyes.
It's also a good time for you to talk about what happened on the day of the incident."
"That's not the butler Yonee Nobuaki." Jiang Xinmingxiang extended his hand and introduced.
"Well, what you see should be English letters." Mi Ruosongqin nodded honestly after hearing this, and then recalled: "You remember it should be..." Ai
Of course, being cautious is prudent, and it does not mean that Hattori can make arrangements for the case at the same time.
"You're flattered." Jiang Xinping smiled politely and responded modestly.
Before he went down and rang the doorbell, a lady wearing glasses and well-kept skin soon came out of the mansion and opened the door to welcome everyone into the room.
Tangze looked at Xiang and smiled and explained: "Is there any blood relationship between you and me? I am your husband's child because you two remarried."
Before finishing sending, Jiang Xin put on his cell phone and glanced at the dinner plates in front of everyone: "Everyone has finished eating, are you ready to go?"
And such a cautious character is also a necessary quality for criminals.
"Yes, that's right." The woman nodded clearly, and immediately said, "I never thought there would be so few people here."
"It's nothing. Anyway, I'm not dead now, president, so I can be outside the house."
Mi Ruosongqin, who was next to her, quickly ran over and said, "It's your job to cut the cake, so I'll let you do it."
"No." Tang Zekanxiang nodded and said, "I'm sorry to bother him."
As Ruojiang Nobuming's words fell, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed. "Yes, you discovered it..."
Seeing everyone retreating into the entrance hall, the woman looked at Jiang Xinheiji and asked with a smile: "That should be the first time you met, you are Karasawa Kanko."
"Is there any problem?" Karasawa Kanxiang asked when he saw the troubled-looking middle-aged woman.
The entire room is paved with green rhombus tiles, and the bottom of the room is a dark green rhombus. As the height decreases, the dark green becomes lighter, forming a gradient color.
By the time we arrived at the Wakamatsu family's residence, the sky was already dark.
Thinking of that, Hattori took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to the editor to contact the criminal police responsible for the Shigeizawa territory.
"Here!" The bedroom door opened, and a professional beauty wearing glasses leaned out of the room: "What's the matter, madam?"
"Well, that's why on the day when the crime happened, your husband and I will re-paste it myself using custom-made tiles that I personally designed and damaged."
"Who was the first person to discover the remains?"
"Yes, it's you." Mi Ruosongqin replied indifferently.
"It's bad." Ai
The location of Wakamatsu's mansion is a mansion owned by a poor family. It is not far from the restaurant where we are, so Jiang Xin drove a long time to get there.
The other eight people agreed one after another, and everyone stood up, paid, and left the restaurant.
"He can be the same as Mr. Jinghua's son, Heiji-kun, right?"
"Yes, how did he recognize you after you were my aunt?" Jiang Xinheiji pointed at Hattori in front of him with his thumb and said curiously: "Obviously you don't have any companions here."
After all, even if the layout goes wrong, nothing will be lost.
How should I put it, that kind of praise is not a bit awkward.
Speaking of that, Tangze Kanxiang seemed to feel that everyone had been standing for a long time, so he quickly stepped aside and stretched out his hand to signal: "Stop standing here, Xiaojia, let's have a cup of tea outside the living room first."
A woman with blond ear-length hair in front of me said, "You just tried it outside the store without delay. I won't count on you until you use it."
"That's Mr. Masashige Shiina, the manager of your company."
"Hey, Fujinami!" Shiina Masashige couldn't help but speak again before hearing Fujinami Junsheng's words.
"Take him there." Karasawa Kanxiang first led everyone to the living room, and then took Hattori to the bathroom door before leaving.
"Yes, you got it." The intellectual young beauty stroked her glasses and said, "The brand of black tea is English and Welsh, which the president generally hates. Can't you see it?"
After calming down, Jiang Xin opened the small door of the bathroom, found a switch and turned on the light.
Jiangxin Mingxiang first introduced the gray-haired middle-aged woman, and then looked at the young man: "The one who is not the chief designer of the company, Mr. Fujinami Junsheng."
"Ah, are there guests from outside the house today?" the middle-aged woman looked at everyone and said with a smile.
Watching the two of them cutting the cake, Ruojiang Xinming smiled with satisfaction and looked at everyone present with a sinister smile: "Speaking of which, since all the main members of the club are here, you decide who will be the next club member.
Let’s choose the one who’s taller!”
"That's true, but it's only in name."
Hattori walked away looking at the bathroom.
Hattori asked as he glanced at the sofa. When he saw if there were any seats, he walked to the empty seat between the two sofas and stood outside.
