Chapter 1381 Illusion and Poison

"Wonderful."

After listening to Karasawa's reasoning, Satake Yoshimi sighed: "If I had known your identity earlier, I would never have taken action today.

Not only did I discover that the poison I administered saved Ikuro Wakamatsu, I was also keenly aware that someone was helping Ikuro Wakamatsu in the previous case.

Although he knew it was me who poisoned him, he didn't say it directly. Instead, he told Wakamatsu Ikuro that someone wanted to kill him.

Let the other party reveal the accomplice who helped him escape after killing his father in the previous case.

After that, she cooperated with her companions and continued to verbally pressure Wakamatsu Serika, suspecting that she was the murderer of Ikuro Wakamatsu's poisoning this time, in order to get her to reveal her connection with me.

Provoke conflicts between us. Once the fragile relationship is out of balance, it will only end in a dog-eat-dog situation."

"After all, only in this way can I get the most complete truth."

Tang Ze smiled and said: "After all, you three are people who don't trust each other and even have conflicts. Naturally, I have to find ways to provoke conflicts among you so that I can take the initiative."

After those words, everyone present looked at Tang Ze in fear. They did not expect that the other party had such a plan and had the three murderers at his fingertips.

Of course, in the eyes of familiar people, this is Tang Ze's usual style.

This method of seeing the whole picture at a glance, strategizing and grasping everything at the drop of a hat, is all too common.

As an enemy, he is a terrifying opponent, but as a teammate, he is undoubtedly reliable.

"I have nothing more to say. You even sent a little detective to monitor us when we went to check the bathroom tiles to prevent me from destroying the evidence. It's not unfair to lose to someone like you."

Satake Haomi sighed and said, "You already know my motive for killing. It was to avenge my father. The rest of what you said is also correct."

"Stop talking about a very important point. You haven't explained the method of killing Wakamatsu Serika yet." Karasawa reminded.

"Kill me?" Wakamatsu Qinxiang said with a pale face: "What do you mean?"

Karasawa glanced at Wakamatsu Serika and sneered: "You are just a smart guy, and you don't know that you are about to die.

Judging from the current situation, the other party did read the confession letter you left in advance, and just as you thought, the other party, Wakamatsu Ikuro, had murderous intentions.

But you have overlooked one point, that is, after killing Ikuro Wakamatsu, how can you guarantee that Miss Satake will not kill you?
  Judging from the current intelligence, after killing Ikuro Wakamatsu, I will kill you, and use the letter you left to pretend that you killed Ikuro Wakamatsu and then committed suicide. Wouldn't it be a perfect escape?

You have provided yourself with a confession that you have sufficient motivation to commit suicide. Should you say you are smart or stupid? "

Karasawa's words were like sharp knives that kept piercing into Wakamatsu Serika's heart. Her face turned pale, and she didn't realize until now that when she was plotting to kill others with a borrowed knife, others were already eyeing her life.

"This."

Satake Yomi glanced at Wakamatsu Serika, and a smile appeared on her stern face: "It's very simple, just let her read more of a certain word with her name, and then poison the dictionary."

"What does this mean?" Xiaolan asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Yes, and to see a certain word in your name, why do you need to look in the dictionary?" Kazuye also looked puzzled: "Shouldn't I remember my name clearly?"

"Then detective, do you know why?" Satake Yoshimi looked at Karasawa and asked with a smile.

"Maybe because of the image collapse phenomenon." Tang Ze smiled.

"Image collapse phenomenon?" Xiaolan asked with confusion on her face: "What is that."

"I think you must have seen the shape of clouds or stains on the wall as human faces, right?"

Hattori Heiji smiled and explained: "It's actually the facial neurons in the brain that reacted and instinctively regarded those shapes as human faces."

"But in fact, the human brain also has kanji neurons that are similar to neurons."

Karasawa explained with a smile: “If you look at the same Chinese character for a long time, the Chinese character neurons will become tired.

Image collapse means that the brain's sensory function for that font decreases. As a result, although it is a font that is commonly used by oneself, the brain becomes suspicious of the font form due to fatigue and becomes unrecognizable.

Image collapse is such a phenomenon, and it can be regarded as an illusion similar to "Crazy Diamond".

But one is an illusion that deceives the eyes, and the other is an illusion that deceives the brain. "

After explaining all this, Karasawa looked at Satake Yomi and said, "The next step is my guess based on the tips you just mentioned.

I think Mrs. Qinxiang most likely has the habit of flipping through books and licking her fingers. This is why you poisoned the dictionary and set up this plan.

You only need to prepare a design package with one of the fonts "Wakamatsu Serika" and let the other party see those designs for the purpose of confirming the final design.

Then wait until Wakamatsu Serika's brain has an image collapse, and then get a contract in time for the other party to sign.

Wakamatsu Serika, who suffered from image collapse, would forget how to write one of the characters in her name because she had seen too many of the same fonts before.

Then according to her habit, she went to look up the word in the dictionary, successfully came into contact with the poison, and was successfully poisoned by you while licking her fingers and turning the page.

Of course, what I said is just a reasonable deduction based on your prompts.
  But one thing I can be sure of is that the poison on your watch must have been contaminated when you poisoned the dictionary. "

Speaking of this, Karasawa glanced at Wakamatsu Serika, who was pale and trembling with fear and fear, and said, "Well, now it seems that Mrs. Serika does have these habits. It seems that the plan I said is completely different?"

"Sure enough, you shouldn't kill anyone today."

After hearing the explanations of the two men, Yoshimi Satake sighed again: "I originally thought that I could let Hattori-kun be my witness, but who knew that I would find a dark horse like you.

I was still a little reluctant at first, but now it seems that I am destined to be arrested. Even if you don't show up, Hattori-kun will probably be able to arrest me.

People really can't do bad things, otherwise they would know how difficult it is to hide something from the truth. "

"Criminals will attract detectives." Karasawa said with some emotion: "This may be some kind of fate in this world."

These words seemed to be spoken out of emotion, but in fact he was using them to describe the facts of how the world works.

In the world of Kexue, crime is really a dead end.

When you commit a crime, there will be an invisible thread pulling the detectives and criminals who are against you to rush to the scene, and then the methods you thought were seamless will be dismantled to pieces.

This is a dead end, but people in this world still like to play high-end murders to bring fame to detectives and achievements to criminals.

There is nothing to say.

After hearing Karasawa's emotion, Satake Yoshimi didn't say anything, but sat quietly on the sofa waiting for the arrival of the police.

However, such a cold person is most likely to go to extremes and get confused, not to mention that the other person is still contaminated with poison, so Tang Ze sat next to her to prevent her from messing around. Police Officer Memu arrived here soon. After learning about the situation from Tang Ze, he took the three people away.

"The whole family was arrested..."

Looking at the three people being taken away, Hattori Heiji sighed rather sadly: "I wonder if Mr. Wakamatsu will be sad if he has a spirit underground."

"A murder, an accomplice and abetment of murder, and an attempted murder, but this is the best result."

Karasawa patted Hattori Heiji on the shoulder and said: "Although they all have to pay for their crimes, at least they all survived.

Fortunately, I'm here, otherwise if you really follow Satake's methods, you two may not be able to stop her crime.

Even if you can figure out her murderous plan later, I'm afraid the other two have already turned into corpses. "

Hattori Heiji's eyes drooped when he heard this: "Although I really don't want to admit it..."

"But it really makes sense..." Conan complained with the same dead fish eyes.

Then the words turned into sharp arrows, piercing the hearts of two people again.

But this time, he was jealous. After all, the hook was too big, and Tang Ze was able to take advantage of it before and after the incident.

After the crime occurs, you can look for clues to find the culprit, and you can even determine the murderer in advance before the crime occurs. Although it has limitations and is not very useful in cases that have nothing to do with smell, this is also cheating! ! !
  What's more, smell is the essence of this world, and many cases will leave some behind more or less.

Even if there are limitations, it is equivalent to opening up another investigation path.

If we use game terminology, it means that Tang Ze is born with the ability to obtain more information than others due to his talent.

The key is that this kind of talent cannot be imitated, which makes people envious, jealous, and jealous.

But fortunately, what the other party said made sense. If Tang Ze had not been gifted today, they would have seen two people die in front of them.

Thinking about it this way, although there is also some unwillingness brought about by the desire to compete, I am more grateful.

Fortunately, Tang Ze came with them and saved the lives of two people. Even if neither of them were good people, their crimes should be judged by the law instead of being lynched.

And this is also a good thing for Yoshimi Satake. After all, you have to know that killing two people in a row and attempted murder are completely different punishments. If she had killed two people as in the original work, she would probably have to be in prison for the rest of her life. Spent.

Even if the sentence is reduced due to good behavior, I am afraid that the person will have turned gray and become a remnant abandoned by the times. In the end, he may not be able to survive outside, commit some minor crimes again, and enter prison to live out the rest of his life.

In that case, her life would really end today. If it was just an attempted murder, she could still be released from jail.

Although she is no longer young when she comes out, she is at least middle-aged. With the inheritance left by her father, she can still enjoy her old age.

So no matter how you look at it, the current result is much better than the ending of the original plot.

"Stop sighing and sighing. If you can't change things, just accept the reality and move on."

Tang Ze gave a half-attack and half-encouragement sentence, and asked the two girls: "Are you hungry? Let's find a place to fill our stomachs?"

"I just ate curry not long ago." Xiaolan waved her hand and said, "If you eat more, you will get fat."

"Me too." Heye smiled and nodded in agreement: "And it's still early, so you can go home directly by car."

"Then I'll send you off."

As he spoke, Karasawa looked at Xiaolan and said, "Should you go home directly, or get in the car and wait for me to take Hattori and the others to the station before taking you off."

"Lan-chan, just stay with me in the car~"

After hearing Tangze's words, Toyama and Ye quickly held Xiaolan's arms and prayed.

"Okay, I originally planned to give it to you." Xiaolan smiled and reassured, then looked at Tang Ze and thanked: "Sorry to trouble you, Tang Ze Criminal."

"You are welcome."

Tang Ze greeted everyone to get on the bus, and then glanced at the three "survivors" standing next to see them off.

Half of the original six people went to prison, and these three were considered lucky.

"Thank you so much this time." Masashige Shiina looked at Karasawa and bowed: "Although it ended like this, fortunately there were no casualties. I think the president who passed away must also be very happy."

"What a relief, the whole family has been served." Fujinami Junsheng complained frankly and sincerely, which once again aroused Shiina Masashige's glare.

"Hey, Mr. Wakamatsu is really nice. Why did this happen to him?"

Yonehara Sakurako said with a sad face: "I am homeless again."

After hearing the other party's words, Karasawa's expression changed, and he suddenly remembered the basic information about Yonehara Sakurako, the little unlucky guy.

She is a single-parent family, and her mother is the maid of the Wakamatsu family. After her mother's death, Yonehara Sakurako was adopted by Wakamatsu Kohei and hired her to continue working as a housekeeper at home, and also funded her schooling.

For her, Wakamatsu Kohei is just like her father, and the Wakamatsu family is half of her family. Now that the whole family is wiped out, she is homeless.

But the reason why Tangze remembers the other party is that the other party did not have no role in the scene after appearing in this case.

He vaguely remembered that the other party was a bit player, and he seemed to have encountered several murder cases later on.

Thinking of this, Karasawa took out his business card and handed it to Yonehara Sakurako and said: "From what you said, it seems that there are some difficulties in life.

In this situation with the Wakamatsu family, you must have lost your job. I know how difficult it is to work alone in the city of Tokyo.

I live with my girlfriend and I find it troublesome to clean things up. You can work part-time here while you find a long-term job.

I will pay you by the number of times. Don’t worry, it will definitely be more than what is available on the market.

If I need you to cook, I'll pay you some more. If you think it's okay, you can send a text message to my phone and contact me when you have time. "

"I need to!"

Yonehara Sakurako heard Karasawa's words and took the business card excitedly: "Thank you very much!"

"Come and help with the housework on Friday." Tang Ze smiled and said, "I will send you the address later. If you have any other difficulties, you can call me."

After bidding farewell to the three of them, Tangze closed the car door and set off towards the station.
