Chapter 57 The Disappearance of Godzilla



While shouting for Miss Youmei to help call the police, Tang Ze did not stop.

He followed Godzilla straight to the stairs. Although the pungent smell of paint made him feel a little uncomfortable, the obvious paint footprints spread all the way upwards, guiding Tang Ze to chase.

Soon, everyone arrived at the gate of the rooftop. It was obvious that the murderous Godzilla had escaped here.

"Behind the door should be the roof. Godzilla should be on the roof..."

Standing in front of the rooftop door, he looked at the few little ones who followed him and said, "You guys should go down first. It might be very dangerous later. I won't be able to take care of you!"

"It's okay, Godzilla is our good friend!" Ayumi held Tang Ze's hand, her little face full of seriousness, "It won't hurt us."

"Hey, hey, this is not the time for fooling around." Tang Ze said in a serious tone: "Be obedient, I must ensure your safety."

“Crack!”

Just as Tang Ze was speaking righteously, the naughty boy Yuan Tai directly opened the door.

"Hey!!" Tang Ze hurried forward and found that Yuantai had a puzzled look on his face.

As soon as he entered the rooftop, he understood Yuantai's doubts. It turned out that the entire rooftop was empty, without any people or objects.

"How is this possible? There are no other side roads along the way, and there is no place to hide! Where did that guy go!?"

Tang Ze and Conan looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

"Did Godzilla fly away?" Genta guessed as he looked at the disappearing Godzilla.

"Godzilla can't fly!" Mitsuhiko retorted.

But Tang Ze didn't have time to pay attention to these childish speculations. He immediately went to the fence and saw the Godzilla suit burning fiercely downstairs.

"Not good, could he have committed suicide?" Tang Ze looked at the burning coat below and ran downstairs.

“No…no one!!”

When Tang Ze and Conan came downstairs, they found that it was just the leather suit of burning knowledge, and there was no human figure at all.

“How is this possible!!”

Conan and Tang Ze looked at each other, both saw each other's thoughts, and their faces were full of solemnity.

They could never have imagined that the prisoner disappeared out of thin air!

The police soon realized the situation, and when Inspector Megure and others arrived, the flames on Karasawa and the staff's suits had already been extinguished.

And Karasawa was telling Inspector Megure everything he had witnessed.

"Did the criminal really kill the victim in a studio while wearing a Godzilla suit?"

"Yes, that's true. Conan and I saw it."

Tang Ze nodded and said, "After the criminal killed the victim, I chased him directly from the studio to the corridor, and then took the stairs all the way up to the rooftop.

We thought we had trapped the criminal on the rooftop, but when we got up, we found it was empty. Then we looked down and saw Godzilla's suit lying on the ground, burning with flames."

"But there's no one inside?"

Inspector Megure took the bloody murder weapon in his hand, a look of disbelief on his face. "But Godzilla's costume is stained with blood, and the murder weapon was dropped right next to it. The criminal can't just disappear into thin air!"

"Karaze-kun, have you been chasing the criminal? Are you sure he went to the rooftop?" Inspector Megure asked again.

"There's evidence for this. If Officer Megure doesn't believe me, you can follow the criminal's escape route." Karasawa explained, "There are footprints on the floor of the corridor and on the stairs!"

"footprint?"

"Yes." Tang Ze nodded and said, "The criminal knocked over a paint bucket while committing the crime, and then his feet got stained with paint...

And not only do we see the killer in the Godzilla suit, but as he's running from the studio into the hallway, he bumps into Ms. Tomomi."

"Not only that!" Conan said at the right time: "Before killing Uncle Kamei, the criminal also stabbed Mr. Osomatsu's leg in the warehouse, right everyone!"

“Woo…”

But the expected echo did not come. When Conan turned his head to look at the three little ones, he found that they all looked sad. Ayumi's tears were rolling in her eyes, and she choked from time to time.

"Hey! You guys..." Conan saw the three of them in such a state, and he was worried but also confused.

"Godzilla is dead..." After being asked this by Conan, Ayumi could no longer hold back her tears.

Yuan Tai said dejectedly, "He's the invincible Godzilla! How is this possible?"

"Hey! I told you, that's just a prop!" Conan said helplessly, pointing at the burnt and broken Godzilla suit.

"But now we can't make a movie." Mitsuhiko said dejectedly.

"Idiot, if we run out of props, we still have spare ones!" Conan said speechlessly after understanding the three people's train of thought.

"No, Godzilla only has one suit." Mikami Daisuke heard Conan's words and walked over to agree.

"Ah? Really?" Conan said in disbelief.

"Well, to save money, and every time we repair it, we use it carefully."

"Ah, please, Professor Mikami," Inspector Megure asked, "Excuse me, where were you at the time of the incident, around 11:30?"

"I was alone in the studio room on the first floor, doing the final touches on the storyboard," Mikami Daisuke replied, "because we were scheduled to shoot the final scene that afternoon."

"Is there anyone who can testify for you?"

“This… doesn’t…”

"Huh? Is this sweat?"

Because of the angle, while the two were talking, Conan looked up and saw that Daisuke Mikami's clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Uncle, you seem to be sweating a lot!" Conan said.

"Ah, I have a body type that sweats easily..."

Mikami Daisuke laughed and said, "Also, my editing habit is to stay alone in a small room, with all the doors and windows closed, and no air conditioning, to maintain complete silence so that I can concentrate on the storyboards."

"oh…"

Mikami Daisuke said this with a somewhat downcast expression: "But I finally finished the storyboard... Now Godzilla's suit has been burned, and the producer is dead. Now it feels like everything has become a waste paper..."

"Let's go to the studio first and ask other witnesses who saw the criminal."

Seeing that the topic was getting more and more off track, Inspector Megure brought the subject back to the main topic and asked Daisuke Mikami to lead the way to find the other two witnesses to get information.

The first person found was Osomatsu, who was stabbed in the leg by Godzilla.
