Chapter 1479 The Suspects



"By the way, I didn't expect you had this watch too." Maori Kogoro looked at the watch next to the computer and said, "Is this the same one Mr. Fubu wears?"

"Yes, that watch was a gift given to me by Mr. Furu when I first made money by buying stocks," explained Takuro Yuda.

"I remember that Mr. Mutsu just now also had the same watch." Detective Otaki said, looking at the watch on Kogoro Mouri's hand.

"But your watch is running normally." Kogoro Mouri said, looking at the watch.

"Well, that's mainly because I usually wear it, but now I took it off because of the coloring." Takuro Yuda explained.

"Then please stretch out your hand so that we can extract the material from your sleeves and wrists to see if there is any shooting residue." Takagi said with a smile.

"That's no problem, but my hands are dirty because I've been painting the props."

As he spoke, Takuro Yuda stretched out his hands for everyone to see, and indeed, as he said, his palms were stained with a large amount of red paint.

However, this only adds some work to the forensic personnel and will not affect the identification results.

As for Tang Ze, he didn't even have any expectations for the test results of the gunpowder reaction.

It would be strange if this could really be used to catch the criminal.

After all, the tricks designed by these criminals are more cunning than each other. Since the criminal intends to use a gun, it means that he has taken into account the reaction of gunpowder smoke and naturally will not reveal flaws in such an obvious place.

The interrogation finally ended with collecting smoke reaction data. After saying goodbye to Takuro Yuda, everyone headed straight for the third suspect's room.

The third suspect is a young woman named Naoko Izutsu.

When everyone arrived at her room, she had just finished taking a shower and was wiping her head with a towel in her right hand.

"Excuse me, did you receive the watch from Mr. Bupu?"

Because everyone who had been cheated by Mr. Bupu had received gifts from him without exception, Tang Ze started asking about this as a starting point for the conversation.

"Of course I got it from Mr. Bupu. Of course, this was also a gift from him after I made some money from stocks."

Izutsu Naoko said while wiping her hair, "But I just threw it in the drawer after not using it once."

"Um...Excuse me, Ms. Izutsu, what do you do for a living?"

Officer Takagi looked at the room layout, which was completely different from the other two suspects, and couldn't help but ask.

"You didn't know after seeing it?"

Tang Ze pointed to the items on the table and said, "A light table, a utility knife, dot screens, G pens, fountain pens, ink, and Chinese ink. This lady must be a manga artist, right?"

"This criminal is very knowledgeable."

Izutsu Naoko smiled and picked up a comic book with a pink-haired detective girl on the cover. "You've probably all heard of the pen name Miss Misono, right?"

"Ah!" Officer Takagi was surprised when he heard what Izutsu Naoko said: "This is the beautiful girl detective manga that Chiba loves to read!"

Hearing Takagi's exclamation, Tang Ze's mouth twitched involuntarily. He knew that Takagi was unconscious, but he still inadvertently caused the death of Chiba Society.

After all, as a criminal in the Investigation Division, he actually likes to read beautiful girl detective comics, and the style is always a bit inconsistent.

However, everyone present more or less knew Chiba's hobby, so Takagi's exclamation did not cause much commotion.

Or rather, everyone's attention is still on Naoko Izutsu.

"So if it were you, you could easily plan to kill someone in the elevator and then make it look like they shot themselves, right?"

Hattori Heiji started his conversation with a sharp response without leaving any room for negotiation, which made Izutsu Naoko look surprised.

But Izutsu Naoko controlled her emotions very well. Facing this sharp question, she smiled and said, "But if I have such an interesting idea, wouldn't it be better to draw it directly into the comics?

It would be a waste to use such a good idea to kill that man."

"Ms. Izutsu, besides you, is there anyone else who comes to this room?" Tang Ze pointed in the direction of the table and said, "There are four light-writing tables. Besides you, there should be three assistants?"

"As expected of a criminal, your insight is quite sharp."

Izutsu Naoko smiled and said, "Yes, there are three assistants here besides me, but they just finished drawing the manuscript this morning and went back."

"But then again, is it possible that a cartoonist's room only has so few books?"

Maori Kogoro looked at the bookshelf in the living room and said, "I had the impression that it should be filled with books, but there are so few books here."

"Really?" Otaki looked at it and nodded in agreement, "It's just some comic books, and the rest are miscellaneous items like speakers..."

"Really? What era is this? How can people still have such stereotypes?"

After hearing what the two uncles said, Izutsu Naoko took out a cigarette and put it in her mouth, saying speechlessly: "Please don't compare me with the old cartoonists, okay?"

"Anyway, I'd like to trouble Miss Izutsu to cooperate with us in collecting the shooting residues." Takagi ignored the other party's complaints and said embarrassedly.

"If you want to call for an investigation, I don't mind."

As Izutsu Naoko exhaled smoke from her cigarette, she extended her left hand to Officer Takagi, “But unfortunately, as you can see, I just took a shower.
