Tang Ze: Detectives can only follow the culprit's footsteps to catch them, but I can rely on knowledge to foresee the future and prevent cases!
Conan: It seems I need to go to Hawaii for ...
Tang Ze did not take Masuyama Kenzo's threat into consideration at all.
You are a criminal. Once you are convicted, it will be too late to distance ourselves from you. This little intimidation is useless.
"If you want to complain, feel free to do so," Tang Ze said with a smile. "As for whether this is inappropriate behavior, we'll have to wait until the investigation results come out."
"Wait, since you suspect Mr. Masuyama is the culprit, shouldn't you show us some evidence?"
The long-haired man, who had been retorted by Tang Ze, seized the opportunity and jumped out again: "Everyone here is a well-known figure in society. Are you treating them as criminals without any evidence?
This is hard for us to believe. Moreover, there is no evidence to determine whether this case was an accident or a homicide. Yet you unilaterally treat Mr. Masuyama as the criminal.
Isn't this a bit too subjective? I suspect you have ulterior motives!"
These words were malicious in nature. Not only did they arouse dissatisfaction among the surrounding guests, but they also raised questions about Tang Ze's search, which in turn brought great public pressure to Tang Ze.
But unfortunately, if it were someone else, he might have really taken public opinion into consideration and retreated, but who made him meet Tang Ze?
"Sorry, I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm telling you, take action!"
Faced with the gradually growing discussions around him, Tang Ze gave the order without hesitation. The next moment, several big men rushed up and pinned both of them to the ground.
"You bastards! Let me go!" The long-haired man yelled after being pinned to the ground, "Why are you arresting me?!"
Tang Ze didn't expect that the criminals around him even held down the long-haired man, even though the person he wanted to investigate was Kenzo Masuyama.
I guess it was too exciting, and I was afraid that they were accomplices so I pressed it together...
While thinking, Tang Ze immediately started to search the inner pocket of Kenzo Masuyama's clothes. Although the other party struggled again and again, he was an old man after all, and the two big men around him held him tightly.
Just now, apart from the smell of gunpowder on the other person's sleeves, the smell of gunpowder was strongest near the chest, so the first thing Tang Ze searched was the inside pocket of the chest.
When Tang Ze took out the pistol, the guests who were originally looking at Tang Ze with dissatisfaction immediately changed their expressions.
The next moment, the words that were originally intended to criticize him turned into praise.
"He really is the criminal! And he even has a gun!"
"It's amazing that they caught the criminal in such a short time!"
"What an excellent criminal! His reputation is well-deserved!"
"That guy is still protecting the prisoner. Are they two in the same group?"
"Yes, I heard he's a music producer. I didn't expect he's actually an accomplice of the criminal..."
The long-haired man on the side blushed when he heard the conversation around him, "No! He and I are not in the same group!!"
"You said you two weren't in the same group!" The man holding him hadn't found any weapons on him. After hearing his words, he said disdainfully, "If you weren't in the same group, why were you defending him so much just now?"
"I..." The long-haired man was so choked up that he couldn't refute it, but he immediately shouted again, "I'm really not in cahoots with him!!"
He just didn't want to stay in there, so he instigated everyone with a few words, and then when he saw that pretty boy Tang Ze pretending to be cool and boasting, he got annoyed and said a few words to him. After being rejected, he felt a little unhappy, so he stood up and refuted a few more times. How did he become an accomplice of the criminal?
Why…why did things turn out like this…Bah!! Kill that white scholar!!
Faced with the dumbfounded long-haired man, Tang Ze asked his men to release him. Although he was a little too jumpy, he was indeed not a criminal, so there was no need to take the opportunity to retaliate. The embarrassment he had suffered now was already enough to make him feel uncomfortable.
Having lost face so much in front of these celebrities, his career will probably suffer a great loss, but this is just the price he has to pay for his actions.
To be honest, when handling cases, there were many people involved in the case who disliked criminal law. This attitude was so common that everyone was used to it and Tang Ze didn't take it seriously at all.
After the forensic examiner detected gunpowder smoke on his sleeve, everything was over.
After arresting the pale-looking Kenzo Masuyama, the case was considered completely closed.
A living member of the Black Organization was arrested, and Tang Ze even saw Conan's excited eyes among the crowd.
That’s right, Conan didn’t expect that Tang Ze could identify the criminal so quickly after his arrival, but this time it was all a surprise, and even his previous desire to compete was swept aside by joy.
Even Tang Ze was in a good mood. He wondered how much reward he would get if he could arrest a member of the Black Organization alive.
But their happiness only lasted for the brief moment when the two detectives escorted Kenzo Masuyama out of the hotel.
“Bang!!”
A gunshot rang out from a tall building in the distance, and the next moment the bullet pierced Kenzo Masuyama's skull. Blood splattered on the white snow like a gorgeous blood-colored flower.
The two criminals beside Kenzo Masuyama did not even react when Kenzo Masuyama was shot. Only after hearing screams and the commotion of the people around them did they come to their senses and quickly took action.
When Officer Karasawa and Megure arrived outside the door, they saw only the body of Kenzo Masuyama lying at the gate with his eyes open.
This scene was beyond imagination, and Conan and Tang Ze's expressions changed drastically.
Even Tang Ze, who knew the brutality of the Black Organization, gained a new understanding of it after seeing this bloody scene.
Suddenly, he remembered that the small laptop with recorded information did not seem to be found on Kenzo Masuyama.
Thinking back to the time when Vermouth was chatting and laughing with Kenzo Masuyama, a flash of enlightenment came to his mind, and he analyzed the current situation based on the situation.
The gap in intelligence led to the current situation!!
Wars are fought with intelligence, and this failure at the last step before success was due to an error in intelligence.
I'm afraid Vermouth has already investigated me and knows that I have the ability of "super smell".
So when he appeared at the crime scene, he knew that Kenzo Masuyama would definitely be arrested, so from that time on, he had treated Kenzo Masuyama as a discarded pawn.
The sniper was probably notified by the other party at that time and rushed over to silence him.
If you think about it this way, the small computer belonging to the organization was probably obtained by Vermouth as early as after he appeared.
Tang Ze thought that his speed in arresting Kenzo Masuyama would catch the Black Organization off guard and arrest them before they could react.
But he didn't know that his personal information had been investigated by the Black Organization.
So Tang Ze had no idea that after seeing him arrive at the crime scene, the enemy, who knew his intelligence, would immediately make such a brutal counterattack!
