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 ...
Looking at this usual scene, Tang Ze smiled with glee.
Conan is still such a forgetful guy that he can't help but show off his reasoning every time and then gets beaten.
It's not like I wasn't there. You can just wait until we discuss it together and then say no. Why do you have to get punched here?
"In general, the testimony given during the criminal investigation in Kamii is very important."
Maori Kogoro analyzed, "This greatly increases the possibility of an accident, and the possibility of a murder is very low.
After all, if there is a murderer, how can he get out of this room?
There are no windows in this room, and the only door is guarded outside. It is a completely secret room."
"It's too early to say that now." Tang Ze shook his head and said, "It's just a theoretical locked room, and it's not a completely physical locked room, it's a locked room with human participation.
Once people are involved, the chances of errors increasing.”
After hearing what Karasawa said, before Kogoro Mouri could say anything else, the director suddenly walked over.
"Um...can I talk to you for a moment?"
The director looked around and asked sheepishly.
"What's the matter?" Tang Ze and others moved to a corner and asked the director.
"So, this case should be an accident, right?"
The director rubbed his hands and said, "As everyone knows, our 'Quiz King' program is broadcast in the evening, so it must be recorded in the afternoon.
Although no one wants this to happen, we are also responsible for the survival of the entire production team. If the production goes wrong, the survival of many people will be in jeopardy. After all, in the economic downturn, no one wants to lose this hard-earned job..."
The salary of a crew is different from other jobs. In many cases, it depends on the performance of the team's program. The basic salary is actually not that high, and it may not be enough to support life.
But if you take into account the rewards for performance and miscellaneous allowances such as overtime pay, it can be considered a decent job, and some senior employees can even get higher salaries.
But all this is based on the premise that there is a program. If there is a problem with the program, the entire crew may face the situation where many staff members will be semi-unemployed.
"I understand the situation." After listening to the director's explanation, Tang Ze nodded in understanding: "Leave the crime scene to me, and you can continue with the program as usual.
But after the show is finished, all of you must come back and cooperate with the investigation."
Anyway, the crime scene was in this prop room, and the stage in front had nothing to do with this place, so there was really no need to stop.
Moreover, they have no suspects now. These people are all employees and cannot escape. It will not delay their continued investigation after they find clues. It is better to give them a convenience and let them record.
"Thank you!! Thank you so much!!"
After hearing Tang Ze's words, the director bowed repeatedly with joy.
"It's okay. I know it's not easy for you. After all, you are responsible for the livelihoods of so many people."
Tang Ze patted the other person's shoulder and said, "Alright, go get ready. I will also solve this case as soon as possible and minimize the disturbance."
"Then I'll go record the show first. I'll leave this case to you." Maori Kogoro straightened his collar and looked at Tang Ze solemnly and asked, "I'll come over to help as soon as I finish the show."
'No, no, no, you've already played your part.'
Upon hearing this, Tang Ze complained furiously inwardly, "After ruling out the possibility of an accident, your remaining help is only a hindrance..."
However, despite the complaints, Tang Ze still smiled and nodded.
"Then Mr. Director, let's get started quickly." Maori Kogoro turned his head and looked at the director and said, "Even though this happened, I will do my best to complete this game!!"
"Hey... I'll leave it to Detective Mori..."
The director nodded but did not leave. Instead, he looked at Tang Ze with embarrassment, as if he had something difficult to say that he had not yet spoken.
"Is there anything else?" Tang Ze took the initiative to ask when he saw that the other party was reluctant to speak.
"Look, the costumes we used to reveal our numbers during the competition are still in the prop room at the crime scene..."
The director rubbed his hands in embarrassment. "I know this request is excessive, but we really don't have enough time to make new costumes. I wonder if we can..."
"kindness?"
Hearing the director's words, Tang Ze's expression became serious and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
Seeing Tang Ze's sudden serious expression and sharp eyes, the director was startled and bowed repeatedly, saying, "Sorry, I was too pushy. It's okay to wear a uniform without a number. Please forgive my rudeness!!"
"No, I just suddenly thought of something."
Looking at the excited director, Tang Ze stopped his movements and asked, "Let's not talk about this. I have something I want to ask you."
"Anything? Feel free to ask." The director said hurriedly, "I'll tell you everything I know."
"Are you sure this game is completely fair?"
"Of course it's fair, I promise!" The director nodded firmly and said, "The director specifically ordered a fair and just competition.
After all, Detective Maori is a frequent guest on our Nichimizu Radio Station, and it would be disrespectful to Detective Maori if we couldn't guarantee fairness."
"Oh? So it wasn't fair before then?" Tang Ze caught the loophole in the other party's words and asked half-jokingly.
"This..." The director couldn't help but scratch his head when he heard this, with an embarrassed expression.
"You'd better tell me the truth. After all, this is related to the case. Can you solve it quickly?"
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Tang Ze knew the situation and immediately encouraged him with words.
“That’s indeed the case.”
Tang Ze's half-threatening, half-tempting words finally made the director, whose face was constantly changing, make up his mind: "In the past, we would tell Mr. Yamaishi Satsuki the number an hour before the game started..."
"Huh? So, the news reports are all true?" Maori Kogoro said in shock. "The fact that Yamaishi Satsuki relied on his team to cheat..."
“It’s very credible.”
The director nodded resignedly and admitted, "He went too far, so we used the excuse of the program reform to invite guests to refuse to provide Mr. Shanshi with a number before the competition."
"Starting from today?" Tang Ze raised an eyebrow: "Isn't Mr. Champion angry?"
Without waiting for the director to answer, Tang Ze saw the answer from his wry smile.
