"I really don't know. All those things you said have nothing to do with me!!"
Facing Maori Kogoro's constant questioning, Nanzato Fumio covered his head and collapsed, saying: "What do you want me to say so that you will believe it!!"
"We will naturally believe it if you tell the truth!" Kogoro Mouri responded loudly.
"Everything I said is true!!" Nan Lixun was filled with grievances and shook his head frantically and shouted, "I swear I didn't tell a lie! Why do you still think I would lie after encountering such a horrible thing!?
Why do you doubt me so much? Why? Why on earth? Why did I have to encounter such bad luck?
Nanri Xun was a little overwhelmed and burst into tears, which made Maori Kogoro feel embarrassed. He seemed to realize that the other party was telling the truth and that he had pushed her too far.
"How about this, Miss Nanri Xun, calm down for a moment." Tang Ze said, "After all, Hitomi Matsuichiro attacked you, and his brother was subsequently killed.
Even though it may seem unrelated on the surface, there may be something hidden behind the scenes that even you are unaware of.”
"Hidden secret? What hidden secret?" Nan Lixun heard Tang Ze's words and said excitedly, "I don't even know him, how could he involve me?!"
"Yes, there is no direct connection with you, but what about the indirect connection?"
Tang Ze looked at the excited Nan Lixun and said, "I wonder if you would like to tell me about that 'Mr. Anxi'?"
Nan Lixun's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he immediately said, "This is another matter, there's nothing much to say."
"I don't know what that 'Mr. Anxi' means to you, but if you encounter any difficulties, the power of our Metropolitan Police Department is greater than yours alone."
After Tang Ze showed his goodwill, he still put pressure on him: "Conan said that you seem to care a lot about whether the other party has stored something for you. If it's not an illegal matter, is there anything to hide?"
This made everyone look at Nan Lixun unconsciously. The scrutinizing gaze made her angry. "I didn't do anything illegal! I was just looking for him!"
"Looking for someone?"
Tang Ze nodded in understanding and smiled, "Then you should have told us. Although we usually don't help unless someone is missing, this situation is special. As long as you tell me the details, we can make an exception and help you find the person. How about that?
It may be difficult for you, but for us, it may just be a matter of moving your mouth and typing on the keyboard.
Nan Lixun was moved after hearing Tang Ze's words, "Can you really help me find him?"
"Of course, it doesn't matter even if it's a private matter. Just consider it as an apology for wrongly accusing you, how about that?" Tang Ze nodded and smiled.
"Okay, I'll tell you then, although I don't think this has anything to do with what I'm experiencing now."
After hearing what Tang Ze said, Nanli Xun nodded excitedly and began to slowly tell the story.
It was true that he came here to look for someone. When she was in Kansai, she had dated this person before. His name was Anxi.
The two of them met while learning diving, fell in love, and even planned to get married.
But who would have known that half a year ago, Anxi borrowed some money from her, saying he had something urgent to deal with, and he never contacted her again after that.
"I'm sorry, although it's very rude of me to say this, but you must have been scammed by a relationship scammer. They started dating you, got a bunch of money, and then disappeared without a trace."
Tang Ze bluntly revealed the truth, then looked at her and said, "I wonder if you have called the police?"
"No... because I hope to find him and ask him in person, so not yet..." Nanli Xun said a little sadly.
"But you don't even have his address. How can you find him in such a big place?" Kogoro Mouri asked in confusion.
"I came here because a friend told me he saw him in Tokyo."
Nan Lixun sighed slightly and said, "But Tokyo is so big, I don't know how to find him.
Apart from his name, no one knows where he is from or what he does for a living...
If I have to say, there’s only one photo left…”
"A group photo? Now that we have the photo, it's easy. It's not a difficult task for us at the Metropolitan Police Department."
Tang Ze's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect that Nanli Xun still had his photo.
In the exchange murder, the person of interest to Hitomi Matsuichiro was his younger brother Takehiko, and the person of interest to his accomplice "Mr. Anzai" was Minamisato Fumio.
So at the beginning, he just wanted Nanli Xun to tell him about "Mr. Anxi" and see what his relationship with Nanli Xun was.
After that, I would propose the theory of exchange killings, and then see if I could use methods such as drawing portraits to determine the other party's appearance and start an investigation.
And now that the other party actually has photos, it makes things much simpler.
Just as Tang Ze said, although finding someone is difficult for an individual, it is not particularly difficult for a behemoth like the Metropolitan Police Department.
However, when Tang Ze took the photo from Nan Lixun, his eyes couldn't help but shrink.
"It seems that now we don't even have to bother looking for someone."
Looking at the man in the photo, Tang Ze couldn't help but smile: "I have seen this man before."
"What!?" Nan Lixun excitedly stood up and looked at Tang Ze and said hurriedly: "Where, where did you see him!!"
"Detective Mouri, can you lend me your camera?" Karasawa looked at Kogoro Mouri and asked with a smile.
