Chapter 1,266 The truth behind the disappearance of “Kappa”

Latest website:

Numayama Banzou was like a crazed lion at the moment. He looked at Karasawa with red eyes and roared, with such a violent momentum that people even dared not approach him.

But Tang Ze, who was at the center of this violent momentum, remained calm and unmoved.

"Don't you know the answer best?"

Tangze said as he walked to his dining table and chairs, bent down and placed a rusty iron box with fresh dirt on the surface on the table.

"You..." After seeing the iron box, Numayama Banzou's furious words suddenly stopped in an instant, as if a pair of invisible hands strangled his neck in an instant.

At this moment, Karasawa also saw the reactions of the other three people, Nohira Shosuke's doubts, Araiwa's nostalgia and guilt, and the undisguised anger in Tobbe Rokuro's eyes.

"This is what is under our Chen Yan's tombstone." Huangyan waved his hand and looked at the iron box in Tang Ze's hand. He couldn't help but look at Tang Ze in surprise and said, "Why is it in your hand?"

"Because during the day, I discovered that someone had recently dug up the soil at the bottom of the tombstone."

Karasawa explained: "In order to prevent the other party from doing something bad, we dug up the grave and inspected it with Mr. Numayama's acquiescence."

"What!?" Huang Yan was shocked when he heard this, and immediately looked at Tang Ze and asked, "Is there anything going on under the tomb?"

Obviously, everyone's first reaction to the tomb being dug up was the same, fearing that the unknown person had done something underneath the tomb and desecrated the deceased.

"No, there is only one shoe inside." Tang Ze shook his head and said, "One of the reasons why I brought this box here is to ask you if there is anything else missing in it."

"No." Huang Yan sighed in relief upon hearing this, then shook his head and said, "There is only one shoe."

"Yeah, another problem has arisen."

Tang Ze nodded and said: "Why do people who dig graves dig up graves and then restore them without taking anything away?

At first, I didn’t know why, but it wasn’t until I saw this pair of shoes that I suddenly realized something. "

Speaking of this, Karasawa looked at the silent Numayama Hanzo and said: "At the same time, I also know why the "kappa" Mr. who sent me the letter said that he had suffered murder for eleven years. Wronged.

Obviously, he believed that it was not him who killed Tatsuhiko, but someone else.

And the other party thinks that the person who killed Tatsuhiko is you, Mr. Banzo! "

As Karasawa finished speaking, everyone present was shocked. A pair of eyes looked at Numayama Hanzou with doubts, eyes full of scrutiny.

"That's nonsense!!" Numayama Hanzo was furious when he heard Karasawa's words: "How could I kill my own son!!"

"I said that the "Li Li Sanke" who sent me the letter thinks so."

Tangze put on white gloves and picked up the pair of shoes in the box: "No wonder the other party thought so. In fact, when I saw the pair of shoes in the box, I felt the same way for a moment."

"Is there anything special about this shoe?" Xiaolan looked at the shoe in Tang Ze's hand and wondered: "No matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary pair of shoes, right?"

"Look at the inside of the shoe. Is it green?" Tang Ze showed the inside of the shoe to everyone.

"Huh? Isn't this moldy!?" Mouri Kogoro came over to look at the shoes carefully and suddenly shouted: "This is paint!"

"pigment!?"

When Koshimizu Nanatsuki and Conan heard this, the doubts in their hearts dissipated in an instant, but the next moment their expressions became ugly at the same time, and they looked at Numamayama Hanzo aside with even sharper eyes.

"Green paint."

Tang Ze looked around at the crowd and said, "Isn't it easy to think of a kappa?

In other words, a child who covers his body with green paint and pretends to be a kappa. "

"Could it be that the Kappa who even alarmed the TV station at that time was the kid pretending to be!?" Nohira Bosuke thought of the rumors, and his face showed a look of disbelief: "How is this possible?"

"How is it impossible?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked: "Don't forget, you once said that someone had witnessed a kappa, but how could such an illusory thing exist?

But if it was Tatsuhiko pretending to be a kappa by the river, then there would be a reasonable explanation for being witnessed.

Another evidence is that after Tatsuhiko's death, no one saw the kappa again, and the place gradually became deserted. No one came to pursue the "kappa" creature anymore. "

"So it is very possible that Tatsuhiko Numamayama is pretending to be a kappa."

Tang Zedao: "If he hadn't been constantly spotted by people pretending to be a kappa, I'm afraid there wouldn't be such popularity here more than ten years ago."

"But why does Chenyan-kun pretend to be a kappa?" Xiaolan said with a confused look on her face: "What good will it do to him?"

"That's the problem, and that's why the "Tatsuri Sanko" thinks that Mr. Banzo killed his son."

Tang Ze pointed to his feet: "Don't forget, this is a hotel.

As for monsters pretending to be "Kappa", in addition to the television station's profit due to the popularity, the most beneficial thing is the nearby hotel.

After all, as soon as this news comes out, people from all over will come to look for kappa, and naturally they all need a place to rest and eat.

As the closest place to the origin of "Kappa", this hotel probably does a lot of business every day. "

"Hey, is it possible that this guy let his son paint green paint to pretend to be a kappa in a winter like November, which eventually led to Tatsuhiko drowning!?"

Mouri Kogoro pointed at Numayama Banzo and said angrily: "You guy, you are really going too far!!"

"That's nonsense!!" Numayama Banzou said angrily: "I didn't!!"

"What's with the green paint on the shoes?"

Mouri Kogoro asked angrily: "If there is paint on the outside, it can be explained as accidental, but the inside of the shoes is also covered with paint. Isn't this evidence that Tatsuhiko is pretending to be a kappa!"

"It's not like that!"

Just as Mouri Kogoro was questioning him aggressively, Araiwa waved and suddenly shouted: "Things are not what you think!"

"Judging from your reaction, the truth should be completely opposite."

Karasawa looked at Aragawa and waved: "If Numayama Banzo hadn't forced his son to pretend to be a kappa, then I'm afraid that only Tatsuhiko-kun would have the resources to pretend to be a kappa."

"Impossible! How could Tatsuhiko-kun pretend to be a kappa himself!"

At this moment, Tokubi Rokuro was excited after hearing Karasawa's words: "That guy must have forced Tatsuhiko to pretend to be a kappa, and even when the river flooded, he still refused to let him leave, which led to Tatsuhiko's death!"

"If it were during the day, maybe I would have the same idea as you."

Karasawa looked at Numayama Hanzo and said, "Because a person who can even destroy and kick down the tombstone built by his son's friends for his child must be ugly in his heart and not worthy of being a father.

But tonight, when we accompanied Xiaolan to find her mobile phone, we found that the tombstone that had been kicked down had been repaired.

Later, we discovered Mr. Banzou Numayama who wanted to hide secretly, and then we found out that he secretly came back here to repair the tombstone that he kicked down.

Combined with the time we were in the car, Mr. Araiwa, you said that Numayama Banzo was always monitoring this place through the attic. I think he was always watching here to prevent anyone from drowning like his son.

It can be seen that he loves his son, but his behavior is too clumsy, so it is misunderstood. "

"How can it be!"

Tokube Rokuro retorted excitedly after hearing Karasawa's words: "This is all an illusion! He monitored the attic just to monitor the tombstones!!

He did this to prevent the shoes buried underneath that could prove that he forced his son to pretend to be a kappa from being discovered by others! ! "

"Mr. Tatsumi Roshi, the most taboo thing when reasoning is not being able to judge the results objectively."

Karasawa looked at Tokube Rokuro and said in a pointed tone: "Especially, when your eyes are blinded by "evil", you will unconsciously believe that everything is a malicious development, but ignore the fact that it is actually another kind of development. possible."

"What!?"

Hearing Karasawa's name, Mouri Kogoro looked at Tokubirokuro in surprise and said, "Is he Tatsuri Menko? The person who sent us the letter of entrustment!?"

"This..." Xiaolan also looked at Tobori Rokuro with a surprised look on her face and said, "Is this true?"

"Think carefully about his previous reaction."

Tang Ze reminded: "Is it different from ours in terms of stance, more like the attitude of "establishing three principles" in the letter?

Especially when I said that Mr. Numayama Hanzo did not force Tatsuhiko, he immediately stood up to refute me, which made me think of Tachibori Menko.

The rest of us were not so violent, but he was the only one who didn't believe that Numayama Banzo was someone who loved his children.

Thinking about the traces of digging under the tombstone before, I am now 70% sure that you are the one who dug up the tombstone.

As for the motive, he probably became suspicious of Tatsuhiko's death for some reason, and then dug up the grave to check Tatsuhiko's shoes to verify that Tatsuhiko was pretending to be a kappa.

But judging from the content of the letter you sent to me and Detective Mori, it is obvious that you believed that Mr. Banzo was responsible for Tatsuhiko's death, and did not consider that it might be Tatsuhiko's own idea.

But have you ever thought about why Tatsuhiko still stood in the water when it rained if he didn't do it voluntarily?

If you are being coerced, you can use this reason to go home. The different subjective attitudes of the two can determine different actions.

To be honest, I am not too sure about this result, but Mr. Huangyan suddenly denied it with a loud voice, so he obviously knew something. "

At this point, Tangze looked at Huangyan again and said, "When the matter reaches this point, just tell me what you know.

If my guess is correct, were you with Tatsuhiko before his death? "

"How do you know?" Huang Yan looked at Tang Ze with a horrified expression. The next moment his eyes became extremely complicated, with both nostalgia and guilt in them.

"Yes, it's exactly what you said."

Huang Yan looked at the focused gazes of everyone and felt the pressure doubled for a moment, but now he knew that he could no longer hide it, so he truthfully told everything that happened that day:

"Actually, I was with Tatsuhiko on the day he was washed away by drinking water."

"This..." Tokube Rokuro said in disbelief when he heard this: "Why didn't you tell me!"

"Teacher, you didn't ask. I kept silent because of Tatsuhiko."

When Aragawa heard his teacher's question, he quickly explained, and then continued to talk about what happened that day at the urging of Mouri Kogoro: "At that time, because it was already November, the weather was getting colder and colder.

So everyone is spreading the news that when the weather gets colder, no kappa will appear anymore. Someone must be secretly pretending to be a kappa. In winter, they are afraid of the cold, so they suddenly disappear.

After Tatsuhiko knew about this, he insisted on playing the role of a kappa that day to completely convince everyone that there were kappas there.

After it rained, I once persuaded him to give up, but he said it was just a little rain, nothing.

He also asked me to go to Guangluo Hotel quickly and tell the guests that the kappa appeared again.

However, when I was halfway to the hotel, the rain suddenly became heavier, so I wanted to go back and persuade Tatsuhiko not to pretend to be a kappa today.

But when I went back to look for Tatsuhiko, I found that Tatsuhiko's feet were stuck on the rocks at the bottom of the river, and he was trapped in the river and couldn't move at all. I saw that the situation was not good, so I immediately ran back to the hotel to call Tatsuhiko's father. , but when the two of us rushed over, we found that Tatsuhiko was no longer on the river..."

Speaking of this, Huang Yan's voice was completely choked up and his eyes were filled with tears. It was obvious that even after more than ten years, he still could not forget what happened that day.

And even now, he still regrets not being able to save his friends.

"After that, the two of us started looking for Tatsuhiko along the river..."

Numayama Hanzo spoke at this time, his tone full of exhaustion and pain: "But when we found Tatsuhiko in the downstream reservoir...he..."

Numamayama Hanzo opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he couldn't open his mouth.

"We found Tatsuhiko's body..."

Huangyan wiped away the endless tears with a wave of his hand and choked up: "Mr. Banzo, he told me while taking off the shoes that were all dyed green on Tatsuhiko's feet.

Regarding Tatsuhiko's disguise as a kappa, he must keep it a secret and must not tell anyone.

If someone else hears about this incident and imitates Tatsuhiko's behavior and encounters the same thing, Tatsuhiko will also be sad. "

"how so..."

Tokube Rokuro covered his head and collapsed on the ground: "Why is this happening, Tatsuhiko-kun..."

The middle-aged man sat there in despair, obviously unable to accept the facts in front of him for a while.
