After some conversation and information integration, Tang Ze had summarized all the intelligence on the case at hand.
First of all, the deceased Itagaki Rock was found in a large briefcase, and there were traces of heavy blows on the head. Judging from the injuries, the head had suffered multiple heavy blows, which was also the direct cause of his death.
This is consistent with the information witnessed by Mr. Zhugu's son, Zhugu Qiao.
Some time ago, Mr. Zhu Gu was driving his son to a festival, but they were stuck on the bridge. At that time, Zhu Gu, who was bored looking outside the bridge, happened to see a man throwing a big bag into the river.
It was at that time that Itagaki Rock's head emerged from the bag and was seen by him.
Later, because he saw Itagaki Rock's photo on the CD again, Zhuya Takumi told his father that he saw Itagaki Rock being put in a bag and thrown off the bridge that night.
After that, Mr. Hashitani took his son to the Mori Detective Agency to seek a commission. He happened to learn about Itagaki Rock from Sonoko and believed Hashitani Takumi's eyewitness testimony.
After the man threw the bag off the bridge, he took out a lot of things from his green coat and threw them under the bridge. However, because he was blocked by the other party, Zhu Gu Qiao did not see what the other party threw down.
Then the prisoner seemed to be looking for something and kept touching his clothes.
"Brother Qiao, you said he was looking for something, so is there anything in his mouth?"
After listening to Zhugu Qiao's description of the crime scene, Tang Ze asked.
"Ah, now that you mention it, it seems to be true." Zhu Guqiao nodded repeatedly after hearing this and said, "It must be lighting a cigarette!"
"Then it's most likely a lighter."
Tang Ze's speculation also attracted everyone's approval. If you ask what is the most common thing in the mouth of an adult man, it should be a cigarette.
"What did that man do on the bridge after that?" Conan asked, "Did he stay on the bridge after throwing the things?"
"No." Zhu Guqiao shook his head and said, "The man immediately got into a car parked nearby and disappeared."
"Do you still remember what that person looked like, or what the car looked like?" asked Kogoro Mouri.
"The car looked black, just like the kind you see on the road."
Zhu Guqiao replied honestly, "As for his appearance, I didn't see it. He was wearing a hat, and even his coat collar was blocking his view, so..."
"Is that so..."
But just when Maori Kogoro was disappointed, suddenly Hashitani Takumi seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "Ah!" and quickly said, "I remember now. There seems to be a pattern on that person's injury."
"Pattern? You mean a tattoo? What does it look like exactly?"
Tang Ze's eyes lit up when he heard this and he asked quickly.
If a suspect has a specific tattoo, it is actually very easy to identify him, and it will probably come down to the "classic three-choice" stage.
Of course, more clues are needed, and it depends on whether the clues are actually found later.
After hearing Tang Ze's words, Zhugu Qiao showed disgust on his face, as if he hated the pattern he saw: "It's a disgusting-looking nail pattern."
"Disgusting nail pattern?"
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this, not understanding what the other party was describing. However, Zhu Guqiao suddenly said happily, "Oh, by the way, I saw a glowing hammer that big in the car next to ours."
"Nails... Glowing hammer... What the hell is going on here..."
Maori Kogoro looked at Zhugu beside him with an annoyed look on his face and said, "Speaking of which bridge did you walk on that night? Have you forgotten it? Think about it again!"
"I'm so sorry... I was so sleepy and tired because of the traffic that day, so I forgot the exact location."
Mr. Zhugu scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I only remember walking across one of the three bridges..."
"We are now standing on the central bridge in the middle of the Haihu area."
Tang Ze looked around and said, "To the right is the Beihu Bridge, and to the left is the Beihu New Bridge. You can try to recall and feel which bridge you are most likely to choose."
"Well... I actually tried to recall it when I came here with Detective Maori." Mr. Zhutani said embarrassedly, "But it still didn't work..."
"Is there only other clues we can use?" Kogoro Mouri sighed.
"What do you think? Could that glowing hammer that Brother Qiao saw be a firework?"
Xiaolan guessed, "Don't some fireworks leave a long tail when they're launched?"
"That would make them look more like tadpoles or lollipops," said Hondou Eisuke, standing nearby. "Hammer-shaped fireworks are still too strange."
"That's right..." Xiaolan pondered, "Could it be that something is blocking it, causing it to become that shape?"
"Wait a moment!"
While Xiaolan was still guessing, Zhugu Qiao denied it, "I didn't see any fireworks at the time. Although I could hear the sound, there were cars all around and I couldn't see the fireworks at all."
"I think I was driving in the middle lane," Mr. Zhugu said with a wry smile. "The traffic on both sides was probably obscured, so I couldn't see the fireworks..."
"Then only thing left is the nail tattoo..."
Tang Ze thought about it and then took out his phone and called Yuanzi.
