"Bringing so many people with you is quite a big deal." Tang Ze clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Time to call it a day, brothers. You've done a great job this time."
"oh!!"
Hearing Tang Ze's words, the criminals all showed joy, and this good news was also transmitted to the ears of Inspector Matsumoto through the intercom, and both of them showed relieved expressions on their faces.
"Bring him back immediately!" Superintendent Matsumoto said excitedly, "I want to interrogate him personally!"
"receive."
After Tang Ze finished replying, he looked at Qianye and said, "You lead the team to take the criminal back first. I will take a few people to the crime scene to meet up with Gao Mu and the others, and wait for the forensic department to come and finish it up."
"I understand." Qianye nodded and escorted the prisoners away with a large group of people.
Tang Ze took the two of them and took the elevator to the deceased's room on the 24th floor.
However, as soon as he walked out of the elevator, Tang Ze saw another elevator door next to him open, and Conan, who was standing next to him, was about to run forward in a hurry.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Looking at Conan who didn't notice them at all, Tang Ze pulled him back.
"Detective Tang Ze?!"
Conan's expression lit up when he saw the person in front of him, and he said hurriedly: "Before, Haibara and Ayumi saw a man in a coat whistling coming up. I suspect that the criminal wants to harm Mr. Pingdong Douji!"
"Oh? I see."
Tang Ze nodded in understanding, finally knowing how Conan became involved in the case.
Apparently, when Haibara and Ayumi went downstairs, they met the criminal and told Conan when they came back. After that, he realized that it was the criminal who committed the crime and came to the scene, only to find that the deceased was already dead.
According to the criminal's route of action, he would have already escaped by the time Conan called the police, not to mention the arrival of the criminals.
"Time is running out!" Conan said anxiously, seeing Tang Ze's indifferent look, "The criminal may attack Mr. Pingdong at any time..."
"You're being too hasty. Didn't you realize the problem when you saw us?" Tang Ze smiled and said, "Or do you think our reaction is worse than a child like you?"
Conan is not a stupid person. He was just worried before. After hearing what Tang Ze said, he was stunned for a moment and then reacted instantly.
The fact that Tang Ze and others came here actually explains the problem, and they didn't look anxious at all before, but rather relaxed.
Could it be...
Conan already had some guesses in his mind, and asked uncertainly, "Could it be that Mr. Pingdong has been protected by you?"
"Unfortunately, Pingdong Tangci had already been killed by the criminal when we arrived." Tang Ze's words made Conan's heart sink. He asked in surprise: "How could it be so fast?"
"I suspect the perpetrator had planned this in advance, and it wasn't just a simple act of revenge based on what he saw in the news."
Tang Ze shook his head and said, "The news reported that Ping Dongtang provoked the prisoner, but that was just what happened a while ago. After we saw the news, we basically ran red lights all the way here, and we just barely blocked the prisoner from escaping.
Detective Takagi and Miwako Sato arrived earlier than us, but when they arrived the deceased had already been killed at home.
Calculating the time, the news broadcast and Heping Dongtang's death occurred almost at the same time.
While it's possible the culprit was a radio station staff member who got the information, it's a bit too coincidental, and Pingdong Tangci's address wouldn't be known in such a short time."
"Indeed, the prisoner's actions even seem somewhat prophetic."
Conan nodded and pondered, "So, the criminal's original target was Pingdong Tangci, but the previous news happened to give us a preconceived notion."
"That's what I think."
Tang Ze nodded and said, "I speculate that the criminal may have known Ping Dongtangci. As for whether he knew that the criminal was the serial killer, that is unclear."
"Mr. Pingdong dared to so arrogantly challenge the prisoners on TV, which shows that he was confident that he would not be in danger. After all, no one dares to take their own life lightly."
Conan speculated: "Perhaps he was so bold because he was sure that the criminal would not dare to kill him..."
"Forget it, let's not guess anymore. We've already caught the person, so we can just question him later."
Having said that, Tang Ze walked to room 2403, opened the door, and greeted Takagi and the other person inside.
"Conan, why are you here too?" Although it was a bit strange to greet each other at the crime scene, it was actually just a daily routine for them and did not affect their mood at all.
When Takagi saw Conan following behind several people, he couldn't help but wonder.
"Ayumi's house is right here. Haibara and the others passed by the suspect, so Conan suspected that Mr. Hiratoshi was in danger and ran down to take a look."
Tang Ze explained the reason why Conan was here in one sentence.
"What a decisive action! Tang Ze Xingxing, you are an incredible disciple."
Sato Miwako sighed, then leaned over to look at Conan and warned: "But no matter how critical the situation is, you must ensure your own safety, understand?"
'Who is that guy's apprentice?'
Hearing what Sato Miwako said, Conan screamed inwardly, but suddenly he remembered that when he hurried over, Tang Ze had already caught the criminal...
At this time, Conan thought of Tang Ze's question again, "Do you think our reaction is not as good as a child like you?"
Although this sentence seems to be said on behalf of the police, Conan feels that the word "they" can obviously be removed.
