Chapter 624 Murder Case Emerges

PreviousBack to directoryNext
In the early morning, the biological clock came into play, and Tangze opened his eyes on time.

Moving his body, Tang Ze listened to the breathing beside his ears and hugged the beautiful woman in his arms.

Feeling the heavy warmth and the heartbeat coming from the physical contact, Tang Ze closed his eyes again.

However, it seemed that Karasawa's movements alarmed Ayako, who was about to wake up. After a while, the other person opened her eyes and crawled into Karasawa's arms, choosing a more comfortable position.

The two of them just cuddled together and made love in silence for a while before they started to get dressed and wash up.

Today is the second day of the fishing competition. After breakfast at the hotel, the group set out to continue today's "battle".

Walking on the road, a group of people discussed where to go fishing today.

"How about we go fishing in a boat today?" Gentai and Mitsuhiko suggested excitedly.

"But in this season, bass like to eat near the shadows of the shore." As a "theoretical fishing master" Conan expressed his opinion unconvincingly.

"Although you are right, we didn't catch a single fish yesterday!

Yesterday we saw that the stranger on the boat caught a lot of fish, and Xiaolan and Sister Yuanzi had a great harvest on the boat, and they both got rankings!"

Sure enough, Genta and Mitsuhiko, who were "dazzled" by others' harvest, did not listen to Conan's advice at all, and were determined to choose the option of "taking a boat".

"Okay, but I still plan to fish on the shore, but I will change the place." Conan smiled and said.

"Then we have to separate here." Mitsuhiko was still not persuaded. Even if he was separated from his companions, he still planned to take the boat with Genta.

"Then you two come with us. Even if we plan to take the boat today, it is still a bit dangerous for you two to take the boat alone."

Ayako smiled and said, "Karasawa and I agreed to take the boat last night."

After all, Tangze had just come into contact with the sport of fishing, so naturally he would not give up trying to fish on a boat. Unexpectedly, Genta and his wife also wanted to take a boat ride, so they just happened to be together.

"Xiaolan and I are going to fish on the shore today." Yuanzi smiled and revealed their plans.

Now Ayumi was the only one left with no choice. Just when she was hesitating, Ayukawa Saori came over with a fishing bag on her back. When she saw the people in front of her, she smiled and said hello: "Good morning, you guys!"

"Ah, Sister Saori!" Ayumi ran over immediately after seeing her: "Where are you going to fish today?"

"Well... I plan to try Kutanisuji." Ayukawa Saori thought for a while and said.

"Then can I go with you?" Sure enough, faced with the opinions of her friend Xiang Zuo, the confused Ayumi chose the third option.

"The terrain over Kutanisuji is still too dangerous for you." Ayukawa Saori smiled apologetically at Ayumi: "So I'm sorry, I can't take you with me."

"Is that so?" Bumi said a little disappointed when she heard this.

"I'm so sorry." Ayukawa Saori passed by Ayumi and touched her head: "Then you should work hard today~"

"Ayumi, let's go too." Conan waved his hand and said goodbye to the four of Karasawa, leading Ayumi in the opposite direction to Karasawa and the others.

After renting the boat, the four of them put on their life jackets and headed towards Kutanisuji. Finally, they chose a place close to the shore to patiently catch fish.

The terrain of Kutanisuji is like a canyon, with high mountains on both sides and a quiet river at the bottom.

The four people sat in pairs on both sides of the boat, facing the canyons on both sides. It felt quite artistic.

However, there is a sense of purpose, and it is really embarrassing not to be able to catch fish. Even Tangze seems to have passed the lucky period for beginners, and he started the rookie mode for a long time without any gains.

However, the fish didn't take the bait, but the fish came to Ayukawa Saori, which had previously said it was going to Kutanisuji.

When the two little ones saw this gentle elder sister, they were not afraid of scaring the fish away by making loud noises, so they started shouting directly on the boat.

Ayukawa Saori on the shore seemed to hear the shouts of the two little ones, turned around and waved to them.

And just this simple action made Mitsuhiko and Genta smile at each other with satisfaction.

"You're a kid, you're a kid..." Tang Ze turned around and saw the two little ones sitting on the other side of the boat with satisfied expressions, and couldn't help but complain.

In the direction of the shore he was facing, Funaki Toshihiko came over with a camera in his arms. After seeing the two fishing on the boat, he waved to them as a greeting.

After a brief interlude, the four of them threw the hook again and began to wait patiently for the moment when the prey took the bait.

.........

"Ah...still nothing gained..."

On the other side, Ayumi sat on a small stool and closed her pole in despair: "If I had known, I would have gone fishing by boat..."

Conan on the side looked at Ayumi who was a little disappointed. He sighed silently and looked at the fishing rod without any movement, with a helpless expression on his face.

Even though he knew a lot about fishing and the habits of bass, he repeatedly ran into obstacles in actual operations without any gains.

At this moment, a whistle sounded not far away. Ayumi turned around and saw a long old-fashioned train passing by on the railway bridge across the canyon.

"It's a traditional train that transports minerals!" Bumi immediately put down her fishing rod after seeing the train on the bridge, swung her arms and shouted loudly towards the mine car.

Unlike the two sides who were fishing, Xiaolan and Yuanzi had left early, but they had been selecting fishing spots and had not yet started fishing.

"Hey, look, the person below is Mr. Takuya, the winner of the championship the year before last." Xiaolan touched Sonoko and looked down the river bank: "So you can catch fish here."

"It doesn't necessarily work if the location is good." Yuanzi smiled pointedly: "Even if you fish next to the champion, there will still be no harvest."

"Conan and the others will definitely catch something today!" Xiaolan looked at Yuanzi angrily and said, "Don't tease them like that. They would have been very sad if they didn't catch any fish..."

"So you think they will get nothing today~" Yuanzi caught the flaw in Xiaolan's words and said with a smile.

"No way!" Xiaolan felt a little guilty when she said this: "Conan and the others will definitely catch a lot of fish today."

"Hmm~ That's hard to say~" Yuanzi smiled and turned around and walked forward again.

However, the two of them had just walked not far when Yuanzi, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xiaolan looked at Yuanzi and asked curiously: "Why did it stop suddenly?"

"Hey, Xiaolan, what do you think that is?"

Yuanzi pointed to a pile of stones ahead, where a pair of human feet were exposed outside the stones. It looked like someone was lying there.

"That's weird, what is he doing?" Xiaolan said curiously.

"Maybe it's because I can't catch any fish, so I just lie down on the grass and sleep~" Yuanzi said with a narrow smile.

"how come."

Xiaolan laughed and walked towards the pile of rocks with Yuanzi, but when they saw the scene behind the rocks, they couldn't help but be startled. The next moment, panicked screams spread throughout the entire canyon.

"what sound?"

Above the lake, Tangze, who was hooking the bass in his hand on the boat, seemed to hear a faint sound, but because the echo was weakened after passing through the canyon, he could only hear the faint sound and could not confirm what it was.

Someone must have been shouting at the stone wall. Ayako took the bucket from Karasawa's hand and took an uncertain test.

"I feel like something hit our ship." Mitsuhiko stood up and said.

"I did feel like something touched the ship just now." After hearing Mitsuhiko's words, Karasawa returned to his senses and turned his attention to the stern of the ship, "Go over and take a look."

The two walked to the stern of the boat and found a wooden board. Mitsuhiko fished it out out of curiosity and found that there was a rope tied to the board and a handkerchief tied to it.

Before the two of them could say anything, Tangze's cell phone suddenly rang. After answering the call, Sonoko's panicked voice immediately came over: "No, it's not good, brother-in-law! Someone is dead! Come here quickly!!!"

"

"Don't panic, wherever you are now, I'll be there right away!"

After hearing what Sonoko said, Karasawa was shocked at first, then calmed down and asked the other party to report the location, and then drove the boat towards the destination.

He thought that there would be no problem since there was no case on the first day he met Conan.

After all, I have encountered so many cases in a row without any time to rest, and it is indeed time to enter the "cooling down period."

But who would have expected that he would be caught off guard by the "God of Death". No case occurred on the first day, but a murder occurred on the second day.

Is this the daily life after getting the talent of "Detective Fate"? I love it so much, I really ruined it.

Karasawa complained as he rushed towards the place Sonoko mentioned before, and soon saw the two Sonoko, but what people didn't expect was that Conan and Ayumi were also here.

"When are you going to stop being a god of death?" Tang Ze looked at the other party and sighed inwardly, then got off the boat and went ashore, turning his attention to the corpse.

The identity of the deceased had already been confirmed on the phone. It was Funaki Toshihiko whom Karasawa had seen on the boat in the morning.

The moment he saw each other, Tangze subconsciously focused on the two people.

Ayukawa Saori, Utsubuchi Takuya.

Last year's fishing competition, the winner of the previous year was the winner.

There is no special reason or detective's intuition, it is purely a subconscious judgment based on rich "science experience".

After all, if in a case, all the people you come into contact with are acquaintances, there are only three people you just met, and one of them happens to be the deceased...

Then according to Ke Xue's law, in addition to the deceased, there must be one person who is the murderer.

Okay, that's what I think, but I can't say for sure, I still have to find solid evidence.

Thinking of this, Tang Ze began to have people retreat to establish an isolation zone, and then put on his white gloves and began to inspect the body.

After preliminary inspection, the cause of death of the other party was caused by a heavy blow to the head, but no blood-stained stones were found nearby.

In addition, because the body was still warm, based on simple forensic knowledge, it was estimated that the deceased had been dead for fifteen minutes to half an hour.

In addition, when the corpse was examined, it was discovered that there was a wet mark on the vest pocket of the corpse. Once the super-olfactory sense was turned on, it was determined that the smell of the liquid was petroleum.

This was a slightly weird place, and Tangze kept it in mind.

Because Lake Oko belongs to Kanagawa Prefecture, Karasawa, a criminal in Tokyo, in order to avoid conflicts between the local government and the Metropolitan Police Department, just isolated the scene and quietly waited for the arrival of local criminals.

Soon, Yokomori Shigego, who had a stern look and short hair, led a large team of troops to Lake Ogu to take over the crime scene.

"Search carefully for me! If the deceased slipped and fell, there may be rocks with his blood stains nearby!" After checking the body, Henggou Shigego gave his first order.

Although Karasawa knew that this could never be an accident, this option was the right one.

Yokomori Shigego was just a normal criminal. After considering the circumstances of the case, it was most reasonable to first determine whether the deceased died accidentally due to a slip.

However, before the other party came, Karasawa had turned on his super sense of smell to confirm whether it was gone, but he didn't say much in the face of Yokomori Jugo's command.

Although his super sense of smell is useful, it has limitations. Even if you conduct a blanket search, you may find something else.

Moreover, this is not his territory, and saying it plainly will only make the other party feel bad.

While waiting, Henggou Shigego was not idle and prepared to ask the first discoverer.

"Why is it you, and Tang Ze Criminal..."

Because after arriving at the scene of the crime, he immediately went to check the body. The first discoverer didn't notice it, but now that he got closer, he realized that they were a group of acquaintances.

"We are here to have fun." After Tangze finished speaking, he told the other party the information about the deceased.

"It turns out that the deceased's name is Funaki Toshihiko. Thank you very much. It was a great help."

After hearing Karasawa's words and thanking him, Henggou Shigego continued to ask: "I don't know who the first discoverer is. There are some things I want to ask."

"It's the two of us."

Sonoko and Xiaolan took a step forward, and Henggou Shigego was a little unsure when he saw Xiaolan: "You...you are the "Sleeping Kogoro"..."

"It's the sleeping Kogoro..." Conan corrected Yokomori Shigogo's mistake.

On the other hand, Tang Ze on the side couldn't help but chuckle to himself when he heard this nickname. To a certain extent, this nickname was indeed correct.

After all, this guy rarely wakes up when handling cases, and the most common scene in many episodes is the various scenes of him passing out after being anesthetized, plus each time a victim is randomly selected to sleep...

"The Sleeping Kogoro" is really quite vivid.

"Henggou Criminal, thank you very much for your help last time." Xiaolan bowed slightly and thanked her.

"you're welcome."

Henggou Jugo waved his hand, then looked at Sonoko standing aside and asked: "Then who are you?"
