At this moment, when a police car appeared at the scene of the crime, Tang Ze felt a group of grass-mud horses running past.
You just left the Mori Detective Agency not long ago, right?
Will you encounter a case if I take the lead?
When he saw the young man with dark skin and a Kansai accent, Karasawa recognized the other person's identity.
The black skin, the Kansai accent, and the familiar hat all represent the identity of the other party - Hattori Heiji.
The self-introduction of the other party also proved his identity, and after some understanding later, Tangze finally understood what happened and determined that this case was the one where the two detectives from the east and west met.
Almost shortly after he left, Hattori Heiji went to visit the office, clamoring to find Kudo, and later met the client who wanted to investigate the character of her son's girlfriend.
Since the other party's husband (Note 1) was a diplomat, Hattori Heiji proposed that Mouri Kogoro bring them as friends to visit his home as a disguise, and the client agreed.
So, together with Conan who was drunk with liquor, everyone came to the client's home, but when they met the client's husband, they found that the client had died in the secret room.
The situation at that time was that the client, Mrs. Ikemura, took Mouri Kogoro and others to her husband's room, but she kept knocking on the door but no one responded.
After that, Mrs. Ikemura took the key and opened the room, and found that the other party fell asleep in the room while listening to the opera. When Mrs. Ikemura went to wake the other party, the other party did not wake up but fell to the ground.
When Mouri Kogoro and others came forward, the other party was no longer breathing and had died directly.
After checking, the room turned out to be a secret room!
After judging, there was a conspicuous red dot behind the ear of the deceased, and a needle suspected to be a murder weapon fell next to the deceased. It was initially determined that he was poisoned.
Judging from the fact that the body was still warm, had spots on the body, and did not appear stiff after death, the deceased had not been killed for more than 30 minutes when everyone discovered the body!
There were two keys to the room, one was in the hands of Mrs. Ikemura, and the other was found in the sandwich pocket of the deceased's pants!
In other words, this is a perfect locked room murder case!!
However, although Officer Megure asked Mouri Kogoro and Karasawa to work harder and convinced Beheiji, Karasawa had no energy at all and looked like he was just paddling along.
After all, this is a duel between two detectives from the East and West, and Tang Ze has no intention of interfering in it. Compared to this, he has an important plan.
After that, everything went smoothly. After some investigation, Hattori Heiji confidently identified Mrs. Ikemura's father-in-law as the murderer.
After drinking liquor, Conan recovered from the pain and looked like an adult. He stood up and pointed out Hattori Heiji's mistakes and told the world that "no one can pretend to be in front of me"...
Ahem, after some beatings, Kudo Shinichi found the real criminal - Mrs. Ikemura.
And the cause of everything was an incident that happened twenty years ago.
Mrs. Ikemura was actually not the wife of Isao Ikemura, the deceased, but she was the wife of another diplomat, Kenji Yamashiro.
But Ikemura Isao framed Yamashiro Kenji for corruption, which put him in jail, and eventually died in prison in the fifth year after entering prison.
Ikemura Isao did this not only to crowd out his competitors who were also diplomats at the time, but also to get her.
At that time, she knew nothing about what happened. Because her husband was arrested, her daughter Sachiko was also taken away by her husband's relatives and fell into a low ebb.
Ikemura Isao said that he divorced his wife because of her and took advantage of the opportunity to marry her.
It wasn't until Ikemura Isao and his ex-wife's son Takayama came back with a photo of his girlfriend Sachiko that she learned the truth of the matter.
At first, she just thought that Sachiko looked a lot like her, but she didn't expect that Ikemura would try his best to date them.
After some questioning, Mrs. Ikemura found out the truth of the matter. It turned out that Sachiko was really the daughter of her and Kenji Yamashiro, and Isao Ikemura told her everything he had done back then.
That's why Ikemura Isao strongly opposed his son's marriage to Yamashiro Kenji's daughter.
The reason why Ikemura Isao's father, the old man who was identified as the murderer by Hattori Heiji, jumped into the trap and admitted that he was the murderer was because he also knew the past events.
In order to make up for the mistakes of the past, I planned to suffer on her behalf.
And the reason why she wanted to kill someone was just to make her daughter happy and to avenge her ex-husband.
"It turns out that my reasoning direction was wrong from the beginning. This time I am convinced that I lost!"
When all the reasoning came to an end, Hattori Heiji looked at Kudo Shinichi and praised: "As expected of Kudo! Your reasoning is indeed amazing."
"You are wrong!" enduring the discomfort all over his body, Kudo Shinichi leaned against the wall and said: "In reasoning, there is no distinction between winning and losing...no distinction between high and low.
Because...there is always only one truth!!"
"You're right, I just care too much about winning or losing..." Hattori Heiji pressed his hat, "That's why I'm not calm enough."
"Well!!"
The colic in his heart resurfaced, causing him to cover his heart unconsciously. Xiaolan, who saw his weakness from the side, had already hurried to call the family doctor who lived on the second floor.
His whole body felt hot, and pain as if his bones were melting spread all over his body. Realizing that he might become Conan again, Kudo Shinichi knew that he could not stay any longer.
He struggled out of the room and was about to go downstairs, but happened to run into Xiaolan, who was running over with the doctor.
"Xinyi?" Looking at Xinyi who was sweating profusely, Xiaolan complained with worry: "You are a patient, how can you move around casually!"
"Xiaolan!"
Kudo Shinichi's eyes began to blur, "Too bad... if I change back to Conan now, my... appearance... will be... seen by Xiaolan..."
The dizziness caused Kudo Shinichi to fall straight down the stairs. The next moment, he seemed to be caught firmly by someone, and then he was picked up and moved quickly.
By the time Xiaolan realized what she was doing and rushed to the stairs, Kudo Shinichi was no longer there.
"Xinyi!! Where are you!!" Xiaolan shouted everywhere, looking for him.
But what disappointed her was that no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't see his shadow.
On the other hand, Kudo, who was in the toilet, was panicked by the sudden appearance of a figure to help him, because he knew that he would soon become a child again.
But the next moment, severe pain filled his mind, making him unable to think, and the next moment he wanted to scream.
But the next moment, a sinful black hand directly covered the towel over and blocked his screaming mouth.
