"You already know..."
"Prisoner..."
"Who is it?"
Hearing Tang Ze's words, everyone present turned to look at Tang Ze as if they were under a puppet spell.
"Karasawa Criminal Investigation, you said you already know who the prisoner is?" Mouri Kogoro said in disbelief: "You said the evidence is conclusive, but where is the evidence..."
"It's right here." Karasawa pointed to the Go board with black and white chess pieces next to him and said, "Before he died, Mr. Itakura left us the final death message through these Go games."
Following Tang Ze's words, everyone's eyes fell on the Go game.
"This is Braille, which is what we call Braille." Karasawa explained: "And if you only look at the black flags on the chessboard, you can know the message Mr. Itakura left us."
Karasawa once had the skill to master Braille. Although it was only for a year, he still had no problem recognizing these simple words.
As Karasawa spoke word by word, everyone looked at Souma Ryusuke next to them with horrified expressions.
Because when combined with the braille that Karasawa just read, the content is "The murderer is Souma, and the evidence is his watch."
"I remember you said that Mr. Itakura is very picky about watches, and he will admire the guests' watches every time he visits."
Karasawa looked at Souma Ryūsuke who was sweating coldly and said: "If that's the case, then Mr. Soma, the watch you just bought five days ago should not have the fingerprints of Mr. Itakura, who disappeared a week ago."
In other words, as long as Karasawa takes back Soma Ryusuke's new watch, if Itakura's fingerprints are detected on it, then this will be irrefutable evidence.
This is why Tang Ze rushed to the hotel before everyone else and deliberately showed off his watch in the elevator.
Just so that when riding in the elevator with them, Ryusuke Soma could reveal the key information: "I bought a new watch five days ago."
Because of the reference to the original plot, Tang Ze knew that he only needed to reveal his watch to attract the attention of the three people and let them talk about the topic of "watches", so he actively triggered this "plot".
It can be said that it is too easy to solve this case when Tangze knows the plot and the evidence is conclusive.
As for Ryusuke Soma's motive for killing Taku Itakura, it is also a slightly sad topic.
To sum up, the dreams of Souma Ryusuke and Itakura Taku when they were young were betrayed by each other.
Twenty years ago, Taku Itakura was just a little-known game engineer, and he was just a clerk at a game company.
At that time, they were buddies in a shogi club, and they often drank and chatted after playing shogi.
During the chat, they also said that if they become famous in the future, they must work together to design a shogi software that can defeat even celebrities.
But three days ago, when Mouri Kogoro used the method he used today to find Itakura Taku, the other party told him to "wait a moment."
At this moment, Ryusuke Soma felt that his long-cherished wish of the past twenty years was a joke.
Over the past twenty years, for this dream, he had searched for countless records of famous chess players, but he actually said he would shirk it again, saying that he would wait until the time was right.
He invested so much energy and hard work into this celebrity-level shogi program, and even borrowed money from everywhere and invested so much money in Itakura Taku, but what he got was a careless and perfunctory "Waiting a moment".
Afterwards, his dream was shattered and his mentality exploded. After telling him to go out and buy red wine to cheer him up, he went out and bought red wine and came back.
What I bought back together were sleeping pills.
"Perhaps twenty years is too long for him and me." Ryusuke Soma laughed at himself, "After separation, people's hearts and dreams will change with the passage of time."
In response, Tangze could only pat the other party's shoulder and sigh helplessly.
Tang Ze expressed sympathy for his experience, but his mistake was that he should not have chosen such an extreme way to solve the problem.
After that, the hotel fell into an unspeakable silence.
During this time, Conan and Tang Ze quietly exchanged glances.
Looking at the relaxed expression on the other party's face, one could already tell that the contents on the disk must have been copied.
The waiting time did not take too long, and soon Officer Megure brought Takagi and Chiba to the hotel with serious faces.
"What's going on at the scene?"
When Megure walked in and saw Mouri Kogoro, he immediately asked: "Briefly summarize the ins and outs of the matter!"
Following Mouri Kogoro's general explanation, Megure and the others suddenly became a little confused.
what's the situation?
The case...has been solved?
Looking at the prisoner next to him who had already accepted his fate, Mu Mu was a little confused.
But think about the presence of Karasawa and Mouri Kogoro.
Oh, that's okay...
So after saying hello, Megure directed Takagi and Chiba to collect evidence, and after the forensics department personnel finished taking photos of the scene, they escorted the prisoner Ryusuke Soma to close the team.
After everyone walked out of the hotel together, they discovered that there were white snowflakes floating in the night.
Standing at the gate, Mumu suddenly spoke to Xiaolan and said, "Kogoro and I still have something to discuss. Let me hail a taxi for you two."
"No need." Xiaolan took Conan's hand and said with a smile, "If you walk, you'll be home in about thirty minutes."
"Then I'll see you off." Tang Ze saw that Xiaolan wanted to refuse, waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome, it's better to go home early on such a cold day, and I won't take a long way."
"Then...okay." Xiaolan hesitated and nodded: "Sorry for the trouble, Tang Ze Criminal."
"The parking lot is full, so I parked in the parking lot of a nearby shopping mall." Tangze said and walked to the side first, "Let's walk over there."
But looking at Tang Ze's back, Xiao Lan did not take a step to follow. Instead, she looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky and said sadly: "Conan-kun, do you think...people will all change?"
"kindness?"
"After we are separated, we must maintain the same feelings..." As if she felt the same way from Souma, Xiaolan's eyes were slightly red, "It's really hard to just wait like this..."
"Don't worry, Brother Xinyi will definitely be what Sister Xiaolan wants!"
Conan forced a smile and showed a bright smile, but when he saw the tears in his eyes, he involuntarily lowered his voice and said with some confidence: "So you don't have to worry at all..."
At this moment, apart from being powerless, Conan's heart was filled with endless bitterness.
