Detectives of Detective World

As the saying goes, if you have books, you will be long; if you don't have books, you will be short.

The half-day leisure days are always spent quietly, but when something happens, it is not far away with a book.

It's night, and today Karasawa and Ayako came to Ranbuuri Shrine to participate in the third Chief Hidden City Festival.

Ayako was wearing a standard kimono for participating in the festival. Of course, because of the weather, it was naturally thickened to keep warm.

Karasawa, on the other hand, was not dressed in formal attire as usual, but dressed casually.

Simple black pants paired with a blue denim jacket and a white hooded sweatshirt make Karasawa, who has always had a mature style, look full of youthful vitality.

Even if Karasawa chose this outfit, when he looked in the mirror, at first glance he was not used to such a young self. On the contrary, Ayako felt that Karasawa's style was very good.

In her words, she is usually used to seeing Tang Ze's mature style in a suit. Now that she can see Tang Ze's casual and trendy style, it feels very fresh and makes people feel bright.

This made Tang Zedu start to reflect on himself, whether he had almost forgotten the fact that he was a young man after wearing too many suits.

The main reason is that his calm temperament can handle suits in daily life. For example, when ordinary young people are interviewing for jobs, when you see them wearing suits, they will have an abrupt feeling of conflict between maturity and immature temperament.

"Hey, sister~~This way, this way~"

The two held hands and walked forward, and soon heard Sonoko's shout.

Hearing the sound, he looked around and saw that Yuanzi was waving to them from the 9 o'clock direction in front, and Xiaolan and Conan were standing next to them.

Seeing the figures of the two of them, Tangze's heart did not waver at all. After all, Yuanzi had already said before that he would come to the festival again with his best friend Xiaolan.

As for Conan, there is no need to think about it. Where there are cases, he is there. There is nothing to say.

"Good evening." Tang Ze greeted the three of them and rubbed Conan's head: "Hey, it's been a long time. You've been busy lately, right?"

"Well, indeed." Conan nodded thinking of the several cases he had encountered before, and then smiled and said: "It's you who cares about how Duli is doing?"

"It's not bad." Tangze looked at Conan with a smile and said, "By the way, the souvenir is in my car. Remember to take it when you leave."

"I'm so sorry." Xiaolan on the side bowed slightly and thanked: "I'm really taken care of by you two. Every time I go out, I bring special products to us."

"It's okay. You are a good friend of Yuanzi. I also want to thank you for taking care of Yuanzi."

Ayako waved her hands when she heard Xiaolan's thanks: "You have protected Yuanzi so many times, and this is all what you should do.

I have to trouble you to continue to protect the garden in the future. This child is so frizzy that he doesn't know when he will be in trouble. "

"Of course, if there are bad guys, I will definitely protect the garden!" Xiaolan promised with a serious look after hearing this.

"Hey, Xiaolan is the best!"

Yuanzi hugged Xiaolan, and after they pressed close to each other, he said with a narrow expression on his face: "But today, Xiaolan, you don't seem to be able to protect me because of the way you are dressed today~

It’s rare to see you wearing a long skirt. Is it possible that that Kudo guy will come today too? "

Today, Xiaolan is wearing a dark red dress and an orange sweater jacket with a brighter color on her upper body. She looks very ladylike.

"No way!" Xiaolan's face turned red when she heard this, and she quickly waved her hands and said, "I just think it's a bit cold today, so I think it's good to dress up like this."

"Eh...really?" Yuanzi said doubtfully.

"It's okay to change your style occasionally."

Xiaolan heard Yuanzi's question and said quickly: "You see, Tangze Criminal is also dressed very fashionably today, but Yuanzi, on the other hand, you feel more mature than usual!"

"Yes, really?" Yuanzi suddenly turned into beet-eyed when Xiaolan said this, and said with a shy smile: "Well, these are not important, I am going to take revenge, come with me!!"

Seeing Yuanzi's shy expression, Xiaolan looked at the skirt on her body, and then thought of the instruction in the last lottery result to "forbid manly behavior".

Then she looked at Yuanzi, who was dressed in a mature dress, and felt that Yuanzi's mature dress might have something to do with the lottery she had drawn before.

But before she regained consciousness, Xiaolan felt her body running forward involuntarily. After regaining consciousness, she found Sonoko holding her hand and leading her towards the shrine.

As for Conan, he also had a serious look on his face, and even gave Tangze a wink before running, signaling him to follow him quickly.

Looking at the serious Conan, Tang Ze had a strange look on his face.

Could it be that he took the "revenge" mentioned by Yuanzi as revenge for arresting the "chief's man"?

But Yuanzi had made noises at home many times before because she didn't get a good draw last time, so this time she wanted to avenge her shame and get the good draw she wanted.

But looking at the serious look on Conan's face just now, it was obvious that he had no idea what "revenge" Yuanzi meant.

He and Ayako followed him unhurriedly, and when they arrived at the lottery, looking at Conan's depressed expression, Karasawa couldn't help but laugh.

Obviously the other party already knows the truth about the "revenge" mentioned by Sonoko, which is the very effective "love fortune" of this shrine.

"I'm going to get a good draw this time!"

Rubbing his sleeves, Yuanzi looked like he was going to do something big, and urged Xiaolan: "Lan, come and draw another one!"

"This is not good, there is no such thing..." Xiaolan looked hesitant after hearing this.

After all, for normal people, drawing lots depends on fate. Whether it is a blessing or a misfortune is God's will. If you don't get a good result, you will have to draw lots again and have to do it all over again.

"Oh, whatever, it's been a few days, it's time for me to change things!"

Yuanzi said that he was going to draw lots, and he said: "If you don't draw, I will draw. This time I will definitely get a good luck!"

"ah!!!"

Just as Yuanzi stretched out his hand to draw lots, suddenly a girl's scream came from the woods not far away, which instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"The Chief's Man!! The Chief's Man appears again!!"

"No way!" Yuanzi looked stunned: "We actually encountered each other again!?"

"Really appeared again?" Xiaolan also looked in disbelief.

While the two were stunned, Tangze and Conan had already rushed forward, and then they saw a bunch of people surrounding a backpack.

"What's going on with this backpack?" Conan asked quickly, looking behind him underground.

"It's something from the Chief's Man." A man in sportswear said.

"It's what the 'Chief's Man' threw at his pursuers," the man wearing a red turban added.

Upon seeing this, Karasawa took out his handkerchief and opened his backpack. When he saw the bags inside, he poured them all out at once.

"Yuanzi, is there your bag in here?" Looking at the three Yuanzi people who arrived later, Tang Ze immediately asked.

"This is my bag!" Yuanzi looked down and immediately found a silver rectangular bag.

"Does that mean this is the real murder?"

Although he had some doubts about why the prisoner was still carrying the backpack from the last robbery, after hearing Sonoko's words of identification, Tang Ze was certain that the prisoner this time was the real murderer.

When it comes to robbery with a hot man mask, it is also possible that he is a copycat who wants to pin the crime on the other person after seeing the news.

But if there is evidence from the stolen goods last time, then we can be sure that the person who came this time is the real culprit.

"Where did the 'Chief's Man' go?" Tang Ze immediately asked, "Has anyone seen it?"

"We saw him running in the direction of the park." The man in kimono said, pointing in the direction of the park in the distance.

"It's in the direction where a group of people are surrounding right now." The man in sportswear heard Tang Ze's question and pointed to another group of people surrounding the big tree.

"Go over and have a look."

With Tang Ze's eyesight, he could clearly see the situation over there, and his expression immediately changed. He said something and rushed over immediately, with Conan following closely behind.

And when Conan got closer, he finally understood why Tang Ze's face was so heavy.

It turned out that the man leaning against the tree had his chest soaked in blood, and it was obvious that he had been stabbed.

"You help inform the direction of the prisoner's escape."

Tang Ze handed the walkie-talkie to Conan and immediately shouted to the crowd: "Get out of the way and let me check his injuries."

After hearing Tang Ze's words, the others thought it was Tang Ze's words, so they quickly separated to make room for Tang Ze.

"The wound was not very deep and there was no internal bleeding. Don't worry, it's not life-threatening."

After checking the wound, Tangze looked at the man gasping for air and comforted him: "Calm down and take a deep breath, otherwise you may faint due to physical pain and mental stress."

"Hey, did you hear that? The doctor said you're fine. Just hold on and the ambulance will be here soon!"

Passers-by who misunderstood Tang Ze's identity heard Tang Ze's professional judgment and immediately encouraged the injured and cheered him up.

"Hey, was this person stabbed by the "Chief's Man"?" After reporting the situation to Officer Megure through the intercom, Conan looked at the passers-by and asked.

"Yes, we suddenly heard painful whimpering, and when we looked over here, we happened to see the guy wearing the Fire Man mask running away from this man very quickly."

The man's tone was a little nervous when he described it, as if he hadn't calmed down from the previous scene: "It must have been the 'chief's man' who wanted to snatch his bag, and then he was stabbed because he resisted."

"No...not "The Chief's Man"..."

Just as Tang Ze and the two were listening to their descriptions, suddenly the injured man clutched his chest and said in a trembling tone: "Nine...monkeys..."

"Hey, what does that mean?" a Mediterranean uncle asked quickly after hearing what the other party said.

"What do you mean by "monkey"?" Conan also asked quickly.

The man's expression was painful when he heard everyone's questioning, but he still raised his hand with difficulty and made a "nine" gesture.

Only then did Tang Ze realize that the other person seemed to have said a specious "nine" before he started talking about monkeys, but because the other person was too seriously injured and could not pronounce clearly, everyone ignored him.

And under the other party's gestures, all the information the other party wanted to say was finished.

And it seemed that after saying what he wanted to say, the other party exhausted all his strength, felt relieved and fainted at the same time.

"Hey! Cheer up!"

Seeing the injured man fainting, the passers-by onlookers panicked and shouted.

"Don't panic, everyone spread out and make room for the ambulance."

Upon seeing this, Tang Ze quickly supported the other party and began to direct the crowd to evacuate. After all, it was crowded.

After settling the other person and waiting for the ambulance to carry him into the car, he and Conan waited at the same place to meet up with Officer Megure.

"Did you hear what the man said just now?" Conan looked at Tang Ze and said, "He said he was not a 'chief's man' but a monkey?"

"And the numbers that came out when we used our last bit of energy to compare are also very concerning."

Tang Ze frowned and said thoughtfully: "Nine monkeys? I really don't understand what message the other party wants to convey."

"I can't think of it." Conan also frowned: "It would be fine if he wasn't unconscious."

"This kind of thing will be unsatisfactory nine times out of ten." Tang Ze was not surprised by the man's coma.

To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a "plot kill". After all, if the other party is not unconscious, they can directly identify the prisoner, and then it will not be their turn to appear.

The two waited for a while while discussing the case, and soon saw Officer Megure and others arriving in a hurry.

Because a murder case was prevented at the previous fireworks display, the Metropolitan Police Headquarters vigorously promoted security and improved credibility, but this time the "man of the chief" appeared again and slapped him in the face.

Therefore, during this security operation, the Search Section 1 was also sent over to catch the prisoner in one fell swoop.

But it's a pity that the criminal was not caught, and the person responsible for the case happened to be responsible.

"Originally, I was seconded to be responsible for security this time just to guard against a thief, but I didn't expect that I would actually encounter my own job..."

After listening to Tangze's report, Officer Memu looked at the pool of blood next to the tree with a serious look on his face: "It's just a matter of robbing things, but this time I went the extra mile and wanted to kill people... We need to get rid of that as soon as possible." The guy was arrested and brought to justice. A guy who can hurt people at will for the sake of robbery is too dangerous to be left outside.

It’s no joke if someone is killed! "

"Has the identity of the victim been known?" Tang Ze did not answer the call. Instead, he looked at Takagi who hung up the phone and asked for the victim's information.

"The man who was stabbed is called Masuko Shirou. He lives in Cupido Town and is 21 years old." Takagi said: "He is a re-examination student in the literature department who is determined to be admitted to Toto University. He is currently unemployed."

"How is the injury?" Tang Ze heard this and said: "When I checked his injury before, I found that it was not too serious. Has he regained consciousness?"

"Sadly not."

Takagi shook his head and said: "Masuko Shirou's backpack was found in the bag we checked when the "Chief's Man" grabbed it. We knew all this information based on the driver's license.

However, although he is still unconscious, his life is not in danger. "

Hearing this, Tangze nodded to show his understanding and felt relieved at the same time.
