After all, what Tang Ze wanted to find out was not some secret information. After asking Sihuayuan for help, the other party quickly repeated the information he had found out to Tang Ze.
After listening to the rumors that Shihuayuan had inquired about, Tang Ze deeply suspected that the three hanging scrolls of "Pig, Deer and Butterfly" might be the background or origin of this case.
According to the information obtained, the other two paintings of Kojima Gonsaku were lost, and the only remaining painting was taken out by the other party as the prize for this competition.
If you think about it carefully, you will feel that there is something fishy about it.
Of course, regarding the hidden story behind this, Tang Ze plans to investigate further after confirming whether it is the case he has in mind.
After all, it had taken him a whole morning to inquire and organize the information. After lunch, Teitan Elementary School would basically be over, so he had to go there to confirm with Genta.
In addition, investigating the loss of the two paintings is not something that can be done just by talking. It is necessary to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to investigate the relevant information of the theft case.
If there is no record, I might have to visit Xiaodao Quan in person, which is certainly not easier than just talking now.
Therefore, he planned to conduct a follow-up investigation after confirming that this was the case he had in mind.
After planning the subsequent itinerary, Tang Ze had lunch and rested for an hour before driving to Teitan Elementary School.
Because he had calculated the distance and the time for Teitan Elementary School to finish school, Tang Ze parked the car at the school gate and waited for a while, then he saw the elementary school students pouring out.
There were many parents picking up their children around, and Tang Ze standing among them was not very conspicuous.
After the first wave of students had almost left, Tang Ze saw the five little ones walking out slowly.
He waved towards the campus, and the three little ones immediately ran over excitedly after seeing Tang Ze.
Conan and Haibara continued to walk slowly, following behind the three people.
"Detective Tang Ze, why are you here?!"
"Is there any case?"
"Do you need our help?"
After getting close to Tang Ze, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and the other two started asking questions one after another.
Judging from their excited expressions, they obviously want to be involved in the case.
"That's impossible no matter how you think about it." Conan laughed helplessly after hearing what the three little ones said from behind: "I can't imagine a scenario where Detective Tang Ze needs their help."
"Well, that's what kids are like."
Huiyuan smiled and said, "But it's a little unusual that Detective Tang Ze would come here.
I just don't know what his purpose is in coming here, I just hope it's not a big deal."
As they were talking, they walked towards Tang Ze and the other man. At this moment, Tang Ze saw the two of them approaching and waved with a smile.
"Hey, Detective Tang Ze, what brought you here specifically?"
Guangyan looked a little excited and said, "Is there any case near the school? We can help you find out!"
"Just leave it to us, the Junior Detectives!" Ayumi also nodded in agreement: "We will definitely make it beautiful for you."
"No, no, I just came here to find out something."
Tang Ze waved his hand and smiled, "I learned about this when I heard other people chatting on the street. I think Yuan Tai might know more.
It just so happens that I'm not far from your school, so I stopped by to ask."
"Huh?"
Yuantai never expected that Tangze would come to see him on purpose, and he was stunned for a moment.
As for the two little ones next to him, they also looked at Yuantai in a daze, wondering what Yuantai had done that made Tangze come over to ask.
“It’s like this…”
Since Tang Ze came to question him, he naturally made up a suitable excuse.
So he pretended that he had not seen yesterday's program and had not conducted any investigation in the morning, but had just heard it from the side, so he came over to inquire.
"Detective Tang Ze, you guessed it right! My dad did participate in this competition!"
After hearing Tang Ze's intention, Yuan Tai put his hands on his hips and said proudly, "Dad will definitely win the Mr. Kojima competition!"
"I wonder if you've heard what the prizes for the show are?"
After hearing Yuantai's words, Tangze was certain that this was the case he had in mind, but he still continued asking about the previous topic.
"It's a hanging scroll of a wild boar by Master Sankyu." Conan said, "Does this have any connection to the case you're investigating?"
"That's really sharp."
Tang Ze glanced at Conan and smiled, "Yes, I remember this picture being in the hands of Kojima Gonsaku of the Kojima Group, and the other two representing 'Pig, Deer, and Butterfly' have been lost.
If Kojima Gonsaku hadn't transferred the painting, and instead held a "Mr. Kojima" competition and offered this work as a prize, that would be quite intriguing."
"You mean..."
Seeing Tang Ze nod, Conan understood what Tang Ze meant.
However, Conan knew it, but the three little ones were very dissatisfied with the two people's behavior of playing dumb, and they started to judge Conan one after another for his behavior of "eating alone".
"Let me tell you. You can also remind your father to pay attention."
Tang Ze saw that Conan was getting extremely frustrated after being interrogated by the three little ones, so he smiled and helped him out: "The criminal who stole the two paintings of "Deer" and "Dish" has not been caught yet.
Although these three paintings are valuable when sold individually, they would be even more valuable if they could be combined into a set with beautiful meaning like "Pig, Deer and Butterfly".
Obviously the price can be higher, double or even triple it is not impossible."
