This night is destined to be a sweet night.
With the help of Tang Ze, Xiaolan and Conan slept very peacefully that night.
After all, your lover is right beside you, so it's normal to sleep and dream together.
However, Conan and the others were safe, but Tang Ze's good mood was ruined early in the morning.
Driving to the victim's home, Tang Ze walked into the old Japanese-style house and saw the victim who had been shot in the head in the house next to the porch.
A large amount of blood splattered on the walls and tatami, looking extremely bloody and terrifying.
"Senior, you are here."
After seeing Tang Ze, Naoki Kamii hurried forward and said: "The deceased was shot in the brain, but there are no signs of external invasion.
What do you think, senior? Looking at the situation at the crime scene, the criminal shot the victim inside the room from the outside and then quietly evacuated.
Shouldn't we just declare it a murder case and set up an investigation headquarters?"
"It's better not to make a hasty judgment before there is any evidence." Tang Ze looked at the corpse, then stood there and took a deep breath.
The smell of blood, the lingering smoke, and all the scents of domestic life began to enter my nostrils.
After identifying the smells one by one, Tangze began to identify the sources of the smells one by one. The first was the smell of blood. Except for the smell splashing in the room, Tangze did not smell the smell of blood anywhere else.
Then there was the smell of gunpowder lingering in the room...
Inside the house...outside the room...
When the smell of gunpowder mixed with the smell of green leaves emitted by the trees rushed into his nostrils, Tang Ze couldn't help but open his eyes and look at an ornamental tree in the yard next to the porch room.
"Send someone a ladder and search up there." Tang Ze pointed to a nearby tree two or three meters high. "There's something up there."
"Eh? Got a clue? I'll do it, I'll do it."
After hearing what Tang Ze said, Naoki Kamii took off his suit jacket and climbed directly up the tree.
"Be careful." Tang Ze was paying attention to the other person's safety while guiding him towards the source of the smell.
"I found it!! It's a pistol!"
Soon, Naoki Kamii's excited voice was heard from the tree: "The pistol is tied to the tree with a rubber band!"
"Don't take it off yet, just hand me the gun."
Tang Ze called out and asked Naoki Kamii to hand him the pistol from the tree.
On the other side, Naoki Kamii, who found the murder weapon, was also very excited and jumped down from the tree in a few seconds.
"Is this the murder weapon?"
Naoki Kamii came down and approached Karasawa. He looked at the gun in his hand and asked in confusion, "But why is this gun tied to the tree?"
"Because this is something the deceased wanted to hide after committing suicide."
Tang Ze looked at the pistol in his hand and said calmly, "Although I don't know the reason yet, it's true that he wanted to disguise his suicide as homicide."
"suicide?"
Naoki Kamii looked at the tension on the gun handle and said in sudden realization, "Senior, are you saying that the deceased committed suicide with a pistol and then used a rubber rope to swing the gun against a tree to fake the appearance of homicide?"
"It's almost there."
Tang Ze stood at the victim's position with a pistol in his hand and released the gun. The next moment, the taut rubber rope directly brought the pistol back to the top of the tree.
Although this mechanism is simple, if it weren't for Tang Ze's cheating, he probably wouldn't have discovered the murder weapon hanging on the tree next to it.
Now that it has been confirmed that it was suicide, all that remains is to confirm the reason why the deceased committed suicide.
Compared to the aimless, needle-in-a-haystack investigation of a homicide, investigating a deceased person whose information is already known obviously does not require much effort.
The first was the ballistics report from the forensic department, which showed that the bullet marks found at the crime scene were consistent with the trajectory of a pistol that had been hit by a rubber band and hit a tree in the courtyard.
After investigation, it was found that the victim had actually been burdened with a lot of debts due to poor business performance of his company some time ago.
He has divorced his wife and the child belongs to her.
Not only that, they also found out that the deceased had bought a high-value insurance policy for himself, and the beneficiary was his wife.
The reason for making it look like homicide was probably to demand more compensation.
After all, if it was an accidental death, he could receive three times more insurance money than usual, so he designed this method to disguise it as homicide.
Basically, by noon, it was almost over.
"How sad..." After finishing the report, Naoki Kamii stood up, stretched his waist and couldn't help sighing.
He was obviously still lamenting the man's tragic end.
Because they found out the truth, the other party's plan failed, and it even felt like their lives were sacrificed in vain, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Having lost the pillar of the family, the mother and son must have had an extremely difficult life.
"Don't overthink it, we just did what we had to do."
Tang Ze patted Uei Naoki and said, "Also, I asked the charity organization founded by Ayako to send someone to contact the wife of the deceased. If she really needs help, they will help her through this difficult time."
"Really? It's running so quickly?"
Hearing Tang Ze's words, Uei Naoki perked up: "I just saw the news a few days ago, is everything okay?"
It has already been reported that after obtaining the "Nioh Stone", the proceeds from selling it were donated as charity relief funds.
Everyone knows that this transaction is just a formality, which means that the Suzuki family took out a huge sum of money to give back to society after obtaining the treasure.
This led many media outlets to praise the Suzuki family for their sense of social responsibility, and the incident sparked heated discussions, attracting a lot of attention.
Especially the people around Tang Ze. After all, it was news about Tang Ze’s girlfriend, and they had all met her more or less, so naturally they couldn’t help but pay attention to it.
"In fact, it was already being organized a long time ago, and it was basically completed when it was announced to the public." Tang Ze smiled and said, "It's just that it hasn't officially started operating yet. This can be considered the first attempt."
"Really? I hope they can stay strong and move forward."
After hearing about Tang Ze's aftermath, Naoki Kamii's expression couldn't help but relax, and the heavy pressure in his heart disappeared in vain.
"I will." Tang Ze patted the other person's shoulder and said with a smile: "Let's go and have lunch."
"Senior, what do you want to eat? Please let me treat you today." Naoki Kamii said with a smile.
"Then ramen will be fine." Tang Ze naturally knew that the other party meant to treat him, so he did not refuse. Instead, he smiled and nodded.
When the two walked out of the office, they happened to meet Sato Miwako and Takagi who were preparing to go out for dinner. The four of them simply got off the elevator together and walked towards the ramen restaurant on the corner of the street.
