Chapter 684: The Death of a Member - Undercurrent

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Early the next morning, Tang Ze climbed out of bed, still feeling the smell of alcohol lingering in his mouth.

Yesterday, I accidentally drank too much with the heartbroken Naoki Kamei, but fortunately, this amount of wine was nothing to Karasawa, and he didn't have a headache.

After brushing his teeth, Tangze poured another glass of water and drank it. He felt much better.

After washing up, Karasawa finished his breakfast and drove towards the Metropolitan Police Department.

After taking the elevator from the underground parking lot to the floor where the office was located, and watching the crowds of people rushing back and forth, Tang Ze was keenly aware of the tense atmosphere that was approaching.

Seeing this, Tang Ze subconsciously quickened his pace and walked towards the office.

As soon as he entered the office, Karasawa saw Officer Megure hurriedly gathering his men to prepare for departure.

"What happened?"

Karasawa turned sideways at the door to give way to Officer Megure. After seeing the other person going out, he followed him towards the elevator.

"You came just in time. We just received a report that a murder occurred in the Twin Towers skyscraper."

Officer Megure said with a serious face: "Nishitama City Councilor Oki Isomatsu was assassinated in the room!"

"Congressman?" Tang Ze's face condensed: "This is not a trivial matter."

"Anyway, let's go there quickly." Officer Megure greeted Tang Ze: "Let's go to the crime scene first."

"No problem." Karasawa greeted Takagi and Uye Naoki, who were a little depressed, and drove a police car towards the building.

It's just that on the way, Tang Ze always felt a bit familiar when recalling the name of this building, but he couldn't remember exactly which case it was.

'Let's first see if Conan is involved...if not, it's a branch line...'

After making plans, Tang Ze came to his senses and started to concentrate on driving.

Because there were police cars on duty, the passing vehicles gave way to the scene of the crime, and they soon arrived at the scene of the crime.

"As expected of a big shot like a congressman, it's a luxurious hotel."

As soon as they arrived at the Twin Towers skyscraper, Takagi and others couldn't help but marvel.

What comes into view at this moment are two tall buildings, one high and one low, and in the middle there is a bridge spanning between the two floors.

The VIP elevator is transparent, and you can directly see the scenery below when standing on the elevator. According to the hotel manager, this building is a Ueno building, and the building A next to it is used by the group, and the floors are higher.

Overall, this newly built building can be said to be extremely luxurious.

"Let's go, don't leave. I didn't realize that the hotel manager is in a hurry."

Karasawa looked at the two people who were in a daze admiring the scenery and shouted, calling Takagi and Officer Megure to enter the hotel together after they had come back to their senses.

After taking the elevator to the suite on the 67th floor, everyone saw the deceased in this case in the room.

Wearing a purple bathrobe, Oki Isomatsu looked exactly like a bald man. The two sides of his head were thick and sparse, and the top of his head could be seen with the naked eye.

But this ridiculous hairstyle will make people laugh at the crime scene.

I saw that the other party's chest clothes were stained with dark blood, and he was half leaning against the closet. The white cabinet door was stained with blood, and it looked terrifying.

However, what made Tang Zhe a little concerned was that although the blood after the back stabbing was spattered, the upper part was very clean. It only spattered under the wardrobe, and the shape of the spatter was also very unnatural.

Tang Ze took a look at the body and initially judged that the time of death was probably between 10pm and 0am last night.

The cause of death was that a sharp object was struck in the chest, and the wound looked like a knife like a dagger.

After searching the room, no murder weapon was found.

In addition, there is another point that is of concern, that is, in the deceased's hand, he was holding a small wine glass that was split into two.

Because Karasawa has knowledge of antique appreciation, he judged that this was a high-priced item.

And although it looks like a small wine glass, it actually looks a lot like the mortar used to pound bean paste in neon paintings.

Regarding this point, Karasawa specifically asked Mio Tokiwa.

The other party is not only the owner of this twin-tower skyscraper, but also the daughter of the Tokiwa Foundation. Yesterday, she also invited several guests to visit the building that has not yet opened.

Representative Oki Isomatsu is one of them.

After asking the other party, I learned that Omu Isomatsu likes drinking, and he may have brought this cup with him.

At present, Officer Mumu and others have judged that this is most likely a death message left by the deceased.

However, after seeing the small wine glass and recalling the shape of the building he saw outside, the memory in Tangze's mind began to gradually revive and overlap with the real impression.

It can't be that case, right?

Thinking of this, Tang Ze's eyes darkened, and then he looked at all the people in the hotel aside and started asking each other.

And according to Tokiwa Mio, Oki Isomatsu took the initiative to ask for a room to stay here yesterday.

After asking who had received invitations from Mio Tokiwa yesterday, he got the answer he had already guessed.

Mori Kogoro and his daughter, Gokoji, Sonoko and Dr. Agasa.

It can be said that everyone around him seems to be here, which further confirms Tangze's idea.

However, due to his vague memory, he could not remember the names of the characters in that case at all, and he was not completely sure that this was the case in his mind.

Therefore, if you want to be sure, you need a tangible evidence to help him confirm.

But he was not in a hurry about this, because since it was confirmed that Conan and the others were related to the case, he could just confirm it when he called them over to ask for the transcript.

It's not that Tangze isn't in a hurry, but he can't act too deliberately, not to mention they are still investigating the case. It's better to ask probing questions during casual chat, but asking them deliberately would seem abrupt.

In addition to these old acquaintances, and Mio Tokiwa, who learned that Oki Iwamatsu lived in a suite on the 67th floor yesterday, and the person who personally arranged the room, there were only the following four people.

Sawaguchi Chinami, she is Tokiwa Mio's secretary, and she was also responsible for entertaining Mouri Kogoro and his party yesterday.

Ruyue Fengshui, sixty years old, is a famous neon painter, and is famous for his paintings of Mount Fuji.

Hidehiko Kazama, the designer of this building, actually has some connections with Karasawa and the others because he is a student of Teiji Moritani.

However, after seeing the other party's information, although Tang Ze was surprised by his teacher, he quickly excluded him as a prisoner.

After all, if Moritani Teiji, a "famous" student, committed a crime, he would definitely be impressed. But since he wasn't, it proves that the other party was just a cover-up for the case.

As for the last one, there is a director named Yuan Jiaming, who is also a genius programmer of their group.
