Chapter 361: Breaking the Trick



"Ah, that's weird~"

Just as Toda Hideo reached out to press the rewind button, Conan said innocently, "Uncle Toda, don't you have the remote control in your hand so you can rewind the tape directly?"

As he spoke, Conan's evil little hand had already grabbed the remote control, "I'll help you, uncle!"

“Ah…don’t…”

Seeing Conan directly select the button, Toda Hideo's words stopped abruptly after he opened his mouth, and a "click" sound was heard above the cupboard, and then something came along the curtain and fell towards Toda Hideo below.

"don't want!!"

As Toda Hideo screamed, countless empty videotape boxes fell towards him from mid-air.

However, although these very light boxes look terrifying, their lethality is just average and they don’t cause much damage at all.

But even so, the objects falling from above scared Hideo Toda so much that he lay on the ground, covering his head and screaming continuously. Even after the objects had fallen, he was still lying on the ground and screaming without noticing anything.

"Don't worry, those are very light objects and won't hurt you."

Tang Ze looked at Toda Hideo who raised his head in confusion, and said with sharp eyes: "I guess you killed Izuki Eiko in this way!

First, change the control frequency of the video recorders in the upper and lower cabinets to be consistent, so that they can be controlled with one remote control.

Then, place the videotape in the VCR in the upper cabinet."

Tang Ze looked at Toda Hideo, whose expression was becoming increasingly grim, and spread his hands, saying, "To be frank, your method is actually very simple. It's nothing more than using the rewind button on the video recorder.

As for how a heavy vase filled with flowers and water could be pushed by the retracted strap, it would be fine if you just didn't place it so flat.

A videotape underneath would be a good idea. Just place the vase halfway on the tape, leaving most of it hanging in the air, and then even the force of the tape moving backwards will push it over."

"Uncle, you took out Aunt Izuku's favorite movie, 'Sakura Jusanro', right? Aunt Izuku immediately asked to watch the movie in this theater."

Conan, standing by, showed a childlike smile, and then began to finish off the attack without hesitation, "I still remember that you said you hoped she would help return the video to the video store at the station after watching it, so that Ms. Izuki would fall into the trap you set."

"In other words, this trick can only be done by someone who is familiar with Izuki Eiko's habits!"

Tang Ze continued Conan's words: "Do you have anything else to say?"

“It’s not me!”

Toda Hideo waved his arms, as if trying to dispel the panic in his heart. "I was with those kids when I heard the footsteps. It must have been an outsider who killed her! Many people owe her money, so it's no wonder they wanted to kill her!!"

"Don't try to resist these little tricks anymore." Tang Ze sighed helplessly, "You can't even hide it from the children."

"Hee... We've solved the mystery of the vase's disappearance!"

I saw a few little ones holding a large bowl-shaped pot. "We found this in the trash can. You must have combined these two bowl-shaped pots to disguise it as a flower pot!"

"Besides, the sound of running is actually very simple."

Conan smiled and said, "All you need to do is record the sound of running and the door closing on the tape, and then break the imitation hole. When the tape pushes the bottle down, it will retract and the pre-recorded sound will play."

Looking at Toda Hideo, who was kneeling on the ground in an ORZ position with a look of doubt on his face after his tricks were easily exposed by a few little ghosts, Tang Ze knew that the case was over.

After that, the prisoner entered the "confession" phase where he expressed his true feelings.

Simply put, the deceased was not a good person. He seduced his wife into buying a large amount of stocks, causing her to be heavily in debt.

After that, his wife, who had committed suicide, told Toda Hideo what happened. The next day, she found a car and drove off to kill herself. All she left behind was an old watch and a suicide note.

As the saying goes, there must be something sympathetic about a hateful person. A originally harmonious family was eventually targeted by people with ulterior motives, causing his family to be broken up and the death of his loved ones, which led to this tragedy.

To a certain extent, the death of Eiko Izuki can be said to be an inevitability amidst chance.

The saying "He who does evil will perish of his own making" is exactly what it means. Doing bad things will eventually bring retribution.

After Toda Hideo was taken away, this simple yet heartbreaking case finally came to an end.

[Non-existent outsider]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 200 destiny points]

The usual rewards came as usual, and Tang Ze's destiny points reached 1400, which was only one step away from his goal of purchasing a "Master Skill Experience Card".

After saying goodbye to the little ones, Tang Ze and others took Toda Hideo back to the Criminal Investigation Department.

After taking Hideo Toda's statement, the group packed up and prepared to go home.

"How about going for a drink together?"

It seemed that because the cause of this case was so devastating, after taking the statements, Tang Ze saw that everyone was in a bad mood. After the three of them left the office, he smiled and offered, "What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."

"Oh? Tang Zejun, are you treating us?" Sato Miwako said jokingly, "Then we'll have to treat you, a wealthy man, to a good meal~"

"No problem," Tang Ze waved his hand, "You can eat anything!"

In the end, the three of them chose to have barbecue, ate and drank to their heart's content, and then left happily.

This is what the criminal profession is like. You will encounter all kinds of sad cases, and it is a good thing to feel sorry for these cases, because only by understanding them can you maintain your original intention and handle cases with a sense of mission.

But people will not stop for this. If you make a mistake, you must take responsibility. This is an unchanging truth. All they can do is arrest every criminal.

The next morning, Tang Ze came to the Criminal Division to continue his daily work as usual. Because he had just solved a case yesterday, the Grim Reaper entered the "sage mode" and had an unusually comfortable day.

Dealing with documents and cooperating with Sihuayuan's publicity work, everything seems so peaceful and daily.

However, the next day when Tang Ze went to find Sihuayuan to connect with the unfinished work from yesterday, he found that the other party was not in the office.

After asking his colleagues in the room, Tang Ze walked towards the conference room next to the office. However, as soon as he reached the door and had no time to knock, Tang Ze heard a woman's angry shouting coming from inside the room.

"That woman is definitely the criminal!! Arrest her quickly!!"
