Chapter 1380 Sowing discord
  Communication between smart people is cryptic.

The same words have different meanings in the ears of other people and in the ears of a specific person.

But in the final analysis, it is still a deeper interpretation of the same sentence.

To achieve this, in addition to the necessary sensitivity, you also need a little tacit understanding between the two parties.

Conan and Karasawa naturally have this kind of tacit understanding. Whether they are cooperating to solve cases, fighting wits and courage with criminals, or having covert confrontations with black organizations, there are many times when they need to communicate in a cryptic way.

Therefore, the two developed a tacit understanding as comrades-in-arms. With just a look and an ordinary word, Conan understood what Tangze meant.

Watching everyone follow the flow of people towards the bathroom, Conan, who received Karasawa's previous hint, didn't know why the other party hinted that he should follow the group of people he was optimistic about in the past, but he still followed it truthfully.

After all, based on his understanding, Tang Ze would definitely not do useless work.

Thinking of this, Conan's solemn face took on a slightly depressed look.

The solemn reason is that judging from what Karasawa just hinted, the current situation is definitely not as good as it appears.

Even if the criminal is caught, there may be other unknown situations that need to be guarded against. This is probably why Tangze hinted that he should keep an eye on the group of people who followed him to prevent them from making small moves.

The same is true for depression. After all, they are still confused until now. They don't know why Tang Ze did this. They just do things according to the other party's instructions.

This inevitably makes him feel like a tool man.

But even if you are depressed, you still have to do what needs to be done seriously. After all, the overall situation is the most important thing, and naturally you cannot let things slip at this time.

Soon everyone came to the bathroom. After taking the awl handed by Yoshimi Satake, Hattori Heiji consulted Wakamatsu Serika's opinion and removed a piece of tile under his feet.

Under the gaze of everyone, Hattori Heiji stood up holding the tiles to compare with the tiles on the wall.

"It's indeed the same!" Fujinami Junsheng's shocked expression showed a little excitement: "I didn't expect that there is such a phenomenon. I have already thought of several design plans for this phenomenon!"

"Now is not the time to talk about this." Yoshimi Satake looked at the contrast on the wall and said calmly: "The facts are before our eyes. It seems that Mr. Ikuro really took advantage of this phenomenon and hid the news of the president's death."

"The words Kazuha you saw probably disappeared for this reason." Hattori Heiji looked at Kazuha and said.

"It's probably like this. The guy with long hair replaced the tiles with the help of darkness."

Toyama and Ye nodded and exclaimed: "But Karasawa Criminal is so powerful. Before he came here, he guessed the criminal's tactics, and cooperated with Yamato Criminal and others far away in Karuizawa, and they easily caught the criminal."

When these admiring words fell into the ears of Hattori Heiji, his expression froze, and the familiar heart-breaking feeling hit him again.

In the case just now, he used his Osaka accent to take advantage of the situation and eliminate most of the suspects in the restaurant.

In his opinion, it was precisely because he narrowed the scope that Tangze was able to accurately locate the prisoner with his super-smell sense.

Otherwise, with so many people and such a smelly place like a curry restaurant, he would definitely not be able to identify the culprit.

In other words, he should get half the credit for finding the prisoner!

This is why Hattori Heiji is so proud. After all, this is the first time that he has surpassed Karasawa and taken the lead.

Although the opponent was able to solve the problem later, Hattori Heiji felt that the opponent was cheating on his talent and there was no comparison at all.

After all, their detectives rely on their brains!
  But now reality has really slapped him in the face. Tangze's series of operations tonight can be said to be crushing in all directions.

It was obvious that he came into contact with the case first, and he was obviously the one who brought it over.

He even had plenty of time to think about the case, which was a huge advantage for detectives.
  But he didn't untie it.

On the contrary, Karasawa guessed the ins and outs of the case just after eating curry rice, and then contacted the criminal department in the jurisdiction for verification, and then confirmed the evidence and arrested the prisoner in one fell swoop.

No matter in terms of brains or methods, it can be said that he has surpassed himself by a few steps.

Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji suddenly felt very tired and had no interest in continuing to explore: "That's the situation. Karuizawa also has irrefutable evidence, so there should be no problem that Mr. Ikuro is the prisoner. We Let's go back."

After hearing Hattori Heiji's words, everyone's faces showed complicated expressions.

No one thought that it was his son who killed the president. This result had a really big impact on them.

Everyone followed Hattori Hei back to the living room with mixed expressions, but Conan was still at the end. When everyone entered, he nodded invisibly towards Karasawa.

Upon seeing this, Tangze nodded slightly in response, then looked at the crowd and said, "While you were verifying, I have already called the police. The police will arrive soon to take Mr. Ikuru away."

"You bastard..." Wakamatsu Ikuro looked at Tangze with a mixture of shock and anger. He never expected that the crime that he thought he had avoided could be solved so easily.

It was so unexpected that the other party had never even met him, and even just heard about his case and had never been to the crime scene.
  This feeling is too terrifying.

"Oh, actually you shouldn't hate me, but should be grateful to me." Karasawa chuckled, looking at the angry Wakamatsu Ikuro and said calmly.

"Huh?" Wakamatsu Ikuro looked at him in surprise after hearing what Karasawa said, and sneered, "Do you think you are a god? Do you want me to thank you for catching me?"

"Of course, thank me for arresting you, but I also saved your life so that you can still have the heart to complain about me."

Tang Ze looked at it playfully and said, "Don't you think this life-saving grace is enough for you to thank me for?"

As Karasawa finished speaking, Wakamatsu Ikuro's pupils shrank violently, and he immediately shouted in shock and anger: "What are you talking about, what kind of life-saving grace are you talking about, are you threatening me!?"

"I'm just stating the facts, because you were poisoned and almost killed."

After Tang Ze finished speaking, exclamations of surprise rang out again. No one expected that tonight would be such a twists and turns.

The arrest of Ikuro Wakamatsu, the murderer of his father, was shocking enough, but now the criminal in front of them actually said that a murder occurred right under their noses?
  But they didn't even notice, and the poisoned person was still alive and well.

"Hey, Tang Ze Criminal, what's going on?"

Hattori Heiji on the side was also shocked when he heard the news: "Could it be that you smell the smell of poison again?"

"That's right." Karasawa nodded and said, "I stopped Ikuro Wakamatsu from eating the cake because I smelled the smell of cyanide-containing almonds on the piece of cake he got."

As Tang Ze finished speaking, the scene was in an uproar, not daring to accept the news. In the next moment, everyone’s eyes fell on the two people, Masashige Shiina and designer Junki Fujinami.

After all, the Baumkuchen was bought by the other party, so if it were to be poisoned, it was naturally the two of them who were most likely to poison it.

"I have kept it in the packaging carton since I bought it. I haven't touched it at all!" Shiina Masashige explained quickly.

"It's not me either!!"

Seeing everyone's gaze, Fujinami Junsheng waved his hands in a panic and said, "To be honest, I secretly ate some of that Baumkuchen after I bought it. How could it be poisoned!"

"But when you eat it secretly, you might take the opportunity to poison it, right?" Hattori Heiji looked at Fujinami Junsheng and said.

"It's not the two of them, I know who wants to kill me!"

Wakamatsu Ikuro, who was still angry at Karasawa just now, looked at Wakamatsu Serika with a ferocious look on his face: "My good mother, this is a good thing you did!"

"Mrs. Qinxiang!?"

Yonehara Sakurako, who was standing next to Wakamatsu Serika, was like a frightened little rabbit. She subconsciously took two steps back and looked at Wakamatsu Serika with a horrified expression.

"It wasn't me!" Wakamatsu Serika denied repeatedly with an anxious look on her face: "It wasn't me, Ikuro, believe me!!"

"Ha, who would believe you!"

Wakamatsu Ikuro looked as ferocious as an evil spirit and roared: "I have something against you, and you were forced to help me cover up the evidence of the murder. Now that I am plotting to become the president, you would want to kill me to silence me. Isn't that right?" Is it normal!"

"Shut up!" Wakamatsu Qinxiang screamed with a stern expression: "Shut up!! Do you hear me? Shut up!!"

But how could Ikuro Wakamatsu, who had already identified Wakamatsu Serika as the murderer, listen to her words and expose the dirty and dirty things between the two in anger.

Before Wakamatsu Ikuro killed his father, Yonehara Sakurako discovered the body, and Wakamatsu Ikuro had no choice but to hide behind the bathroom door.

And the first person attracted by Yonehara Sakurako's screams standing at the bathroom door was Wakamatsu Serika.

Compared to Yonehara Sakura who stood there stupidly and didn't dare to get close, Wakamatsu Serika, as a wife, was scared but still mustered up the courage to enter the bathroom to check on her husband.

And at this time, she saw Ikuro Wakamatsu hiding behind the door, holding a dagger and covered in blood.

But she chose to protect her son.

But the reason why she protected Wakamatsu Ikuro was not because of the deep love between mother and son, but because Wakamatsu Ikuro had noticed that the person who embezzled the company's public funds was her, the vice president.

In order to prevent Ikuro Wakamatsu from being caught giving up on himself and biting himself out by the way, Serika Wakamatsu took Yonehara Sakurako away who was standing at the door and did not dare to enter the bathroom.

They also asked Ikuro Wakamatsu, who was covered in blood, to pretend to be sad and cry on the body of President Wakamatsu to hide the blood splattered on his body.

Afterwards, he created perjury to prove that the murder was committed by an outsider, and at the same time disposed of the murder weapon.

Not only that, even the death message was hidden with the illusion of "crazy diamond" to deceive the eyes.

After saying all this, Wakamatsu Ikuro showed a happy smile and looked at the other people's eyes with different expressions.

"After it was confirmed that Ikuro Wakamatsu was the murderer, when I reviewed the Karuizawa case again, I felt that if the prisoner was him, it would be too easy to escape."

Tang Ze smiled and said: "But I haven't figured out the key to it. But after hearing you swear so confidently that you know who the prisoner is, I just wanted to see if there would be any unexpected gains. I didn't expect that you would be surprised. Guessed."

Karasawa looked at Wakamatsu Serika and said, "I didn't expect you to be an accomplice in the last case."

"It's not me! I already told you it wasn't me!!" Wakamatsu Serika collapsed and shouted: "Why don't you believe me!!"

Wakamatsu Ikuro was dragged into the water. Knowing that his future was shattered and he was about to face prison, Wakamatsu Serika yelled hysterically: "It's her, she must have done it!"

It seemed that she also had the idea of ​​dragging people into the water and killing them together. Wakamatsu Serika pointed at Satake Yoshimi and shouted: "She must have done it, she wants to kill you!!"

"How is it possible? Miss Satake is just a secretary, what does it have to do with you?" Hattori Heiji realized that the other party's current state was a good time for her to speak the truth, so he immediately questioned.

"She is no ordinary secretary, she is the daughter of my husband and his ex-wife!"

Wakamatsu Serika said sadly: "Because I was afraid of being killed by Wakamatsu Ikuro, I left a confession letter in the safe!
  After that, I told Satake that if anything unexpected happened in the future, I would let her read the letter!
  Now it seems that she must have read the letter in advance, so she wants to kill you to avenge her father! ! "

"It's very reasonable, but it's more interesting to protect yourself or to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

Tangze looked at Wakamatsu Qinxiang and said calmly: "But you probably didn't expect that the person you wanted to borrow a knife to kill would also want to kill you, right?

My guess must be right, Miss Satake Haomi? "

"Why do you think so?"

Facing Karasawa's sharp questioning and even alluding to her being the mastermind behind the scenes, Satake Haomi, whose eyes were obscured by the cold light, calmly asked: "It's not just because of the nonsense of a crazy criminal." , do you think I am the murderer?"

"Of course not. I have plenty of evidence."

Tang Ze pointed to his nose and said, "The two people who bought the cake didn't smell like poison.

On the contrary, you who cut the cake exuded the same smell of poison. "

Looking at Secretary Satake Haomi, whose face was still calm but whose eyes were twinkling, Karasawa shook his head and said calmly: "I think my arrival should be something you didn't expect, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to restrain yourself enough to poison me to kill someone. .

I don’t know your motive or reason for killing, but I know that there is a cyanide smell on your hands and on your watch.

I guess the poison on the hands was because the cake was poisoned, but I don’t know how the watch got contaminated with poison.

However, I speculate that it was carelessly left behind when you were setting up other murderous plots.

After all, when you poisoned the cake, you didn't do anything to let the poison get there.

So, is this evidence conclusive enough? "
