From a wide-ranging investigation with no clues to now locking in three suspects, the progress made this afternoon was enormous.
After receiving this news, Inspector Megure immediately dispatched personnel to investigate the three people in the photo.
After that, after a brief discussion, the group decided to continue the investigation, so they took Zhugu and his son to Beihu Bridge and continued to let the two recall the scene at that time.
It was already dark at this moment, which was exactly in line with the situation that day.
But even so, Zhu Gu and his son still had no memory of that night, nor did they recall any more information.
"I feel like you two won't be able to come up with anything no matter how hard you try." Maori Kogoro scratched his head and looked at the father and son of the Hashiratani and said, "At least you can confirm that the bridge is there..."
"Sorry, I really don't remember." Mr. Zhu Gu smiled bitterly when he heard this.
"Anyway, let's take a look around first."
Tang Ze stood on the bridge and looked around. "The environment at night is different from that during the day. Some things can only be seen at night, so things that don't exist during the day may appear at night."
As Tang Ze spoke, he took in the environment around the bridge, while his brain was constantly working and thinking based on the current information.
The biggest difference between the night environment and the day environment is probably the lighting. For a city, this is a natural scene, even to the point of being taken for granted.
The pattern of the electric light was the closest answer to the "glowing hammer" that Tang Ze thought of after listening to Takumi Hashitani's testimony.
His eyes searched all the way and finally stopped on a building.
It was a very tall office building, and from the bridge one could only look up to see the roof.
But the most important thing is that there are orange lights on in the windows of the two rows of stairs in the middle of the building.
From top to bottom, it is straight like a rectangle, and also like the handle of a hammer.
"So the teapot is here."
Tang Ze sighed and couldn't help but feel that when the case happened, there was no nonsense. Those seemingly irrelevant topics might become the key evidence of the case in some way.
The seemingly casual topic of teapot is now showing its role.
"Detective Karasawa, have you found anything?" Hondou Eisuke, who was standing by, heard Karasawa's sigh and thought he had discovered something, so he asked quickly.
"Well, I almost know what the glowing hammer that Qiao-chan saw is."
Tang Ze pointed to the building next to him and said, "Look at the light on that building. Doesn't it look like the handle of a hammer?"
"It looks like it, but the most important part, the hammer head, is completely invisible." Maori Kogoro said suspiciously, "There's no similar shape at all."
"Remember the coffee pot promotion on Xiaolan's phone?" Tang Ze suggested with a smile, "If that car was there, wouldn't the two combined make a hammer?"
"yes!"
After hearing Tang Ze's words, Xiaolan quickly pulled up the photos on her phone: "The shape of this coffee pot really looks like the shape of a hammer head."
"So, judging from the current situation, the two of you should have seen the criminal when you were passing through Beihu Central Bridge that day."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "And I can confirm that the criminal is not standing on the side where he can see the fireworks."
"I know this. If you stand on the side of the fireworks, you will be cast a shadow by the backlight of the fireworks and you won't be able to see the tattoo." Hondou Eisuke looked excited, as if he was excited about solving the problem.
"But if you were on the other side of the bridge, even if you saw the face peeking out of the bag, you wouldn't be able to see the tattoo on the person's hand."
Conan on the side raised a question: "Brother Qiao's car should be located near the middle lane, which is still some distance away from the other side of the bridge.
Brother Qiao also said that he only saw the tattoo on the man's hand after he got into the car and was about to leave.
But if the man is in the driver's seat, his arms shouldn't be visible."
"If I'm not mistaken, that person probably stuck his hand out of the driver's window?" Hondou Eisuke guessed.
"If that's the case, the tattoo should be on the right hand!"
Maori Kogoro looked at Tang Ze and said, "I remember you took pictures of those three people, right? Let's see who has the tattoo on their right arm!"
Tang Ze, who was cooperating in guiding the case, exchanged glances with Conan, and then Tang Ze took out the photos he had taken in the store before: "Mr. Kiritani with a hat and Mr. Yasu with a flat head, both of them have tattoos on their right hands."
"Choose one of the two." Maori Kogoro scratched his head and said, "What other clues do you need..."
"car."
Tang Ze reminded him, "I remember the shop owner said that Mr. Anju was driving an imported car, right? Then the driver's license should be on the left side. He should be cleared of suspicion."
"Yes, the main driver of our normal car is always on the right side of the driver's seat. Mr. Anju has been driving an imported car for ten years, so he might not be used to right-hand drive cars!"
Maori Kogoro said excitedly: "The suspect is this guy named Kiritani!"
"But we don't have any evidence, right?" Xiaolan hesitated. "There's no way we can convict him based on this alone, right?"
"Don't worry about that."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "Since we have confirmed that the criminal dumped the body at Beihu Central Bridge, we only need to salvage the evidence he left behind in the surrounding area.
Furthermore, the glowing hammer can only be seen within a certain range, so it's sufficient to first determine the approximate range and then have the frogmen search for evidence."
