Chapter 113 Traces



After obtaining this important information, Megure immediately sent people to investigate the person in the photo in order to find him as soon as possible.

And Tang Ze brought Conan to the corpse.

Since the cause of death was a gunshot wound, there was no need to be firm, it was already covered up at this point.

What Tang Ze noticed was the evidence that fell next to the body.

There, the scattered debris attracted Tang Ze's attention.

"Is this... a fragment of a microphone?" Tang Ze frowned as he looked at the fragment and said, "Is this the microphone that Councillor Takada was carrying at the time..."

"Did the bullet hit the microphone?" Conan asked in a baby voice, lying beside him.

"Well, that should be it." Officer Takagi nodded subconsciously, and then realized that there was something wrong with the person who spoke.

Gao Mu, who had reacted, looked at Conan lying on the ground and said helplessly: "These are all evidences, Conan-kun, you can't touch them."

"Conan-kun, you, Ran-san, and Ayako, please go outside." Tang Ze smiled and winked at Conan: "Otherwise, you will be scolded again later~"

"Hi~"

Conan nodded, and sat on the sofa outside the hall with Xiaolan and Ayako, waiting patiently.

Because of the presence of Karasawa, an "insider", Conan was very honest and did not insist on staying at the crime scene.

After all, as a child now, it is not appropriate for him to wander around the scene.

Before, no one helped him, so he had to collect evidence by himself. Every time he was regarded as a troublemaker and was beaten and scolded. Now that he can easily obtain evidence, Conan is also relieved.

However, just as Ayako and Xiaolan were talking, Conan suddenly saw a figure. His eyes fixed on it and he immediately jumped off the sofa.

"Conan-kun, where do you want to run to?" Xiaolan saw Conan's actions and said angrily: "I finally behaved this time..."

"Ah, Lanny-chan, I'm going to the bathroom and will be back soon." Conan shouted and ran away.

Just as Conan caught up with the figure, Karasawa and others were taking President Ishimoto's statement in the house.

"You are not worthy of living in this world at all. I must kill you with my own hands."

After reading the threatening letter, Officer Megure looked at President Ishimoto and asked, "Please think carefully about whether you have any grudges against anyone."

"Never!" President Ishimoto said impatiently, "Detective Maori asked me the same question before, but no! I have absolutely no grudges against anyone.

But even if Councillor Takada was killed this time, it is definitely not my fault!!”

After a while, seeing that the medical staff had finished bandaging the wound, President Ishimoto said impatiently, "You've almost finished asking for my confession, right? Can you let me go now?"

"President Ishimoto! Although you weren't seriously injured this time, the murderer's main target is you!" Maori Kogoro suggested: "You should go to the Criminal Hospital!"

"The president won't go to the Criminal Hospital."

Tanaka Sachiko came over at some point and said, "Our president has his usual fixed hospital, and whether he wants to be admitted to the criminal hospital for protection is also our president's freedom!"

"That's right."

Tang Ze heard the conversation between the two and interrupted, "But the criminal wants to kill President Ishimoto. In this case, entering the Criminal Hospital for protection is the only reasonable choice."

"No need. We have already hired Mr. Maori to take full responsibility for the president's safety." Tanaka Sachiko looked at Maori Kogoro and said, "I'll leave everything to you, Maori-san."

Hearing Tanaka Sachiko's trusting request, Maori Kogoro's expression immediately changed. He patted his chest with a serious face and said, "Please rest assured, from tonight on, I will always stay by your side!"

"Hey, hey, hey... Which side are you on, you old pervert..." Looking at Kogoro Mouri's full of assurances, Tang Ze could only helplessly hold his forehead and accept the result.

If Kogoro Mori didn't agree, it would be fine. Karasawa could still find a way to persuade him, but it seems there is no hope now.

"Then President, let's go to the hospital." After saying this, Sachiko Tanaka took President Ishimoto and prepared to leave. Kogoro Mori and Karasawa on the side said a few words to remember to contact if there was any new news, and then quickly followed.

"Which criminal hospital are they going to tonight?" Officer Megure couldn't help but ask as he watched the three people leaving.

"Neither one. President Ishimoto seems to hate criminals." Karasawa spread his hands helplessly and said, "Detective Maori will live with him to protect him."

"Hey, hey, if this happens, we won't be responsible for anything that happens..." Inspector Megure said speechlessly as he looked at the backs of the three people walking away.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Officer Megure, how is the investigation of the person in the photo going?"

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure shook his head and said, "This man's name is not on the hotel's register.

However, we have already deployed additional personnel to conduct a blanket search in the vicinity and are currently investigating the criminal record."

"I hope there will be some results." Tang Ze sighed and said, "Looks like I'm going to be busy tonight."

"Brother Tang Ze, please take Lan Sang and Miss Suzuki back first." Officer Megure patted Tang Ze's shoulder and said considerately: "I'll lend you the police car first. Go quickly and don't keep them waiting for too long."

"Thank you, Inspector." Tang Ze was stunned for a moment. He was originally planning to talk about this matter with Inspector Megure, but he didn't expect the other party to bring it up on his own initiative.

However, before sending the person away, Tang Ze went to a place first - the lighting room where he had seen the suspect before.

Being in the lighting room on the second floor, which is right above the podium, you can indeed have a clear view of the situation below.

But this is the scenario we see in the current situation.

Before, there were a lot of people in the venue, and all the lights in the venue were turned off.

Although the beam of the focusing light that determined Councillor Takada's position was hitting him, there were many people around who were more or less blocking him. It would be extremely difficult to kill him with one shot in that environment.

He then searched the room and finally found something unusual on the body of the focusing lamp.

The focusing lamp placed here is cylindrical in shape as a whole, and a fixed bracket is installed on the rear half of the lamp body, which looks like a turret.

However, on the side of one of the lamp bodies, Tang Ze found adhesive that seemed to have been applied recently, and next to the adhesive, there were some new scratches.

“Could it be…!”

Tang Ze stared at these traces, then looked down at the body and murmured, "Microphone fragments..."

Then Tang Ze seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned his head to look at the lighting control room on the left, which was also on the second floor!
