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 ...
"Hashibean sack!"
Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense, Maori Kogoro stood up and retorted, "This is too much of a coincidence. How could the photo and the book just happen to fall to the floor? It's too deliberate!"
"Come to think of it, Mr. Shibata seemed to have received a strange phone call the day before yesterday..." Yoshikawa Takezo touched his chin as if he suddenly remembered something.
"What's so strange about this?" Henggou Chanwu asked hurriedly after hearing this: "What was the content of the conversation?"
"Someone called me at the time, saying something about the God of Thunder or the God of Wind. I couldn't hear it clearly." Yoshikawa Takezo scratched his head and looked at Kyoko Shibata beside him, asking, "That should be it, Mrs. Shibata, right?"
Hearing Yoshikawa Takezo's question, Shibata Kyoko exclaimed, "Ah!" and quickly came to her senses and nodded, saying, "After my husband received the call, he got up and went to the bookshelf to look for something.
Then he took a book, flipped through it, and said to the phone with a smile: "I found it, I found it."
"And after that? Where did Mr. Shibata put the book?"
"I remember it was on top of the pile of books next to the bookcase."
When Mrs. Shibata took Yokomizo Sango to check the bookcase, they found that all the books had fallen over.
At this moment, Tang Ze's voice came from the next corridor: "Detective Yokomizo, come here quickly, there are traces of blood on the corridor."
Just when Yokogawa was pondering and asking questions, Tangze was not idle either. He used his sense of smell to explore the room except the one where the deceased lived, and then smelled another source of blood in the corridor.
Afterwards, Tang Ze used the blood light on his watch to confirm that there was indeed blood. He immediately called the people from the forensic department over and did another test.
Hearing Tang Ze's call, Yokogome Sanwu hurried to Tang Ze's side and checked the bloodstains on the floor.
"It seems the previous room wasn't the murder scene. The first crime scene should have occurred in this corridor. Look, the bloodstains are medium-speed impact bloodstains, which can appear from injuries such as fists, blunt objects, or sharp objects."
Tang Ze pointed at the bloodstains on the ground and analyzed: "The bloodstains on the ground are splattered bloodstains, which are obviously caused by the victim being hit by a blunt object.
However, there were no bloodstains farther away in the corridor, which means that the criminal acted in a hurry and only struck once. He did not confirm whether the deceased was dead or not, but simply thought that the victim was dead with one strike, which gave the victim an opportunity.
The victim regained consciousness briefly after the killer left. He desperately crawled on the floor, trying to reach his room and call for help, but died mid-sentence.
Look at how much blood is on his left hand. It must be because he touched the wound after waking up..."
Regarding the judgment of blood splatter marks, although Tang Ze spoke very clearly based on a year of experience in trace identification, these were just the most basic and simple information.
If one wants to further refine and reconstruct the various conditions at the time of the crime, such as using the height and angle of the blood buildup to judge how tall the criminal is and how long the weapon was used to commit the crime, this requires extremely profound skills.
Following the luminol reaction, the test was consistent with Tang Ze's judgment. The bloodstains finally reached the place where the deceased died.
"Si Guoyi, it's amazing that he can make such a judgment based on just a little blood."
Even though it was simple knowledge, it was over 20 years ahead of its time and would be considered advanced knowledge even today. The very fact that it was uttered immediately shocked Henggou Chanwu, causing him to sigh in admiration.
However, Tang Ze no longer had the time to respond to the praise from Yokogawa Chanwu beside him.
At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the deceased's blood-stained left hand!
To be precise, it was the bandage wrapped around the fingers of the deceased's left hand!
Although the left hand was covered in blood, the bandages wrapped around the ring finger and little finger were not stained with blood.
Then there is only one truth, that is, the criminal didn't want people to see certain marks under the bandage on his left hand, so he specially bandaged it!
Thinking of this, Tang Ze walked over to the corpse, squatted down, and pried Mr. Shibata's hands apart.
On the palm of the other person's right hand, there was a blood-stained semicircle.
Seeing this, a light bulb went off in Tang Ze's mind, and he already knew how Mrs. Shibata committed the crime.
Of course, since Karasawa and Conan had already discussed the case and Uncle Maori was in the spotlight, Karasawa told Conan his reasoning.
"Okay, no need to explain so clearly, I already know everything." After hearing what Tang Ze said about the marks on the deceased's palm, Conan drooped his eyes, waved his hand, and said a little depressedly.
Seeing Conan's depressed look, Tang Ze chuckled, rubbed his head, and added fuel to the fire: "It seems that I am one step ahead in this reasoning. You can't be the "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei Era" like this."
"Hmph, don't give me that! This time it's only because I'm a child and can't touch the body that you found the key clue!" Conan said unconvincedly when he heard Tang Ze's sarcastic words.
"But even if that's the case this time, what about before? Sometimes, while it might be because they don't have my keen sense of smell, it seems you can't refute their lack of professional knowledge."
"Fuck fuck!!"
This wave of pain was so heartbreaking that Conan was speechless for a moment.
"Isn't he just a few years older than me and has read a few more books?" Conan gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait until I finish my self-study and then I'll compete with you!"
There's nothing more to say, I'll just work hard from now on! No one can stop me from studying hard!
Looking at Tang Ze's teasing smirk, Conan became angry in his heart.
But for some reason, a black hair on that round little head fell off unconsciously~~
While Tang Ze and Conan were discussing the case, the investigators nearby discovered a blood-stained wooden sword that was suspected to be the murder weapon!
"Where did you find it?"
Seeing that there were more and more clues, Henggou Chanwu became more alert and asked immediately.
"It's in the corridor near the entrance!"
After hearing this, Yokomizo Sango turned to look at Shibata Kyoko and asked, "Mrs. Shibata, do you have any wooden swords at home?"
"Yes..." Mrs. Shibata nodded and pointed to the shoe cabinet at the door. "Usually, wooden swords are in there. My husband uses them to deal with those persistent salesmen..."
"Well...but the wooden sword is gone now." Yokomizo Chanwu glanced at the shoe cabinet and then asked, "What about the phones? How many do you have in total?"
"There are two in total, one is right next to the entrance, and the other is the bedroom..."
"Is that so... I understand."
After hearing what Mrs. Shibata said, Yokomizo Sango revealed a look of understanding. He looked at Ikenami Shizuka and said in a deep voice, "Ms. Ikenami, the murderer is you, right?!"
