The moment they saw Tang Ze, several girls started screaming again. Their enthusiasm made Tang Ze a little overwhelmed.
Although when he heard Kogoro Mouri making a phone call before, he thought the other party sounded like he was talking to a girl, but he didn't expect that this would be the case when he actually saw it.
Judging from her attire, even if she's not a hostess at a Ginza nightclub, she's probably a rebellious college girl who hangs out in nightclubs all year round! ?
Many of these girls who hang out in Ginza all year round have "supporters and sponsors".
If you don't tell your wife about this, she will cry. If Xiaolan sees you, she will probably beat you to death.
While dealing with the enthusiastic young ladies, Tang Ze was complaining in his heart.
Takagi's behavior was even more obvious. He secretly pulled Maori Kogoro out, looked at Maori Kogoro with his back to the girl, and whispered doubtfully, "Detective Maori, you are not "supporting the sponsorship"?"
"No way! Lihua-chan and I are all drinking buddies! After helping me out, I treated them to a drink!"
Maori Kogoro angrily broke free from Takagi's arm, then turned around and looked at the girls: "Hurry up, tell me what I asked you to do before."
"Ah, that painting, right? There are actually a lot of them around here~"
One of the girls with purple hair took out her phone and showed it to the two people: "We found this for Kogoro~
At that time, we took photos of all the nearby murals, marked the locations, and sent them to Kogoro~"
"They hang out in Ginza so often that they're very familiar with the area," Maori Kogoro explained. "They also have a lot of friends, so I rely on them for a lot of my commissions in the area."
Nodding, Tang Ze looked at the purple-haired girl and asked, "What did you mean by there are a lot of them around here? Did many people draw this painting?"
"There are actually a lot of murals in this area with a similar style." The girl said, placing her phone in front of Tang Ze. "Look, there are a lot of murals."
Tang Ze took the phone and flipped through it, and found that although the characters and patterns were inconsistent, many places in the area were spray-painted with patterns of the same style.
After some conversation, the girls brought the three of them to the nearest painting.
This painting was not spray-painted on the wall, but directly on the sliding door of someone else's house.
"Destroying buildings is a crime."
Tang Ze looked at the mural on the wall that showed a man's profile, and searched his mind for two legal provisions: "Talent should be used in the right place."
At this point, Karasawa turned his head and looked at Maori Kogoro and said with a smile: "Let me guess what Detective Maori did next.
Since so many designs are spray-painted on the walls in this area, I think the biggest beneficiary is the nearby paint factory.”
"As expected of Detective Karasawa," Maori Kogoro praised. "That's right, I thought the businesses that were spray-painted might need to have the paint cleaned up, so I found the nearest paint factory."
"Then let's go there next."
After asking the purple-haired girl to send them the photos she took, the three of them said goodbye to the enthusiastic young ladies and headed to the paint factory.
After stating the purpose of the visit, the boss quickly found a pattern from a cleaning list that matched the style of the photo provided by the woman.
"Even if the inkjet print is erased, it can still be found in the records here." Tang Ze praised as he flipped through the record book, "Detective Maori, you are very smart."
"Hmph, that's right, I'm the famous detective Maori Kogoro!"
Hearing Tang Ze's praise, Maori Kogoro said proudly: "How could such a small thing be difficult for me!"
"I can be smart once in a while." Tang Ze secretly complained in his heart.
"Um, Boss, when was this painting drawn?" Tang Ze asked, pointing to a page of the painting. "You don't need to be specific about the time, just a rough estimate."
"Ah... I think this order was placed this summer."
The boss rubbed his eyes and said, "I heard from the customer who placed the order that the painting seemed to be done in the middle of the night, which made them very angry. After all, no one would stay in the company so late at night."
"I wonder which days they will be concentrated on?" Tang Ze asked again.
"This...time seems to be very cool, with no regularity." The boss thought for a moment and said.
"It means it's useless..." Takagi said a little disappointedly after hearing that.
"I don't think so."
Tang Ze smiled and analyzed, "The fragmented schedule means that painters don't have a sense of time in their daily routines. Don't you think this is very similar to the characteristics of college students?
Because I don’t have classes all day, I actually have a lot of free time.”
"I see..." Takagi said thoughtfully.
"Meow~~"
With a meow, a tiger-striped gray cat ran to Tang Ze's feet. The boss, who had been so serious before, immediately changed his expression when he saw the cat. "Coffee sauce~ Where have you been~ Are you hungry?"
The boss picked up the chubby cat, stroked its fur, smiled at everyone and said, "He ran away and disappeared a while ago. It was Kogoro who helped find him. He's definitely a lifesaver!"
"As expected of a 'famous detective', he's so good at finding cats and dogs," Tang Ze complained.
"Hmph, don't underestimate this. For a detective, this is necessary accumulation!" Maori Kogoro put his index finger in front of his philtrum and said coolly, "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't know the boss here, Mr. Sando."
