Chapter 489 The ties on the mask
  "Hey!! Aren't you the Leonardo Rossi who retired after losing to the wolf-masked man in the "Mask Battle"!!"

Takagi looked at the other party and immediately exclaimed, "I didn't expect you haven't retired yet, I'm really surprised!"

"No, no, you're the one who's surprised," Karasawa said as he watched Takagi reveal his opponent's situation to a lot of people, "I didn't expect you to be a wrestling fan."

"It's just a hobby." Takagi chuckled.

"Actually, he was planning to retire," Sakuma explained: "But the great master tried his best to keep him and let him put on the White Wolf Mask and make his debut again. Now he is already a very good player.

He will be the challenger in the next championship match. "

After listening to Sa Xiong's general description of the other party's situation, Karasawa tried to communicate with the other party in English and successfully obtained the other party's testimony.

At that time, he was about to play the game, so he was warming up alone in the lounge. As for the other foreign players, like the other three, they ran to watch Mr. Kiba's game.

Therefore, he has no alibi.

"Well... that means all four of them have no alibi..." Officer Megure said with a headache as he looked at the four people.

"No, Mu Mu Police Department, only those who have the opportunity to get the wolf mask have the opportunity to commit crimes!"

Mouri Kogoro made a very pertinent suggestion, "So we just need to find guys who have the opportunity to enter the lounge to get the mask."

But unfortunately, although this suggestion is good, it has no effect.

According to the master Jingqing, in order to make it easier for him to wear the mask, the "Wolf Masked Man" mask and the spare mask were packed in a bag and placed in the restroom dedicated to the staff.

After all, his external identity is Mexican, and the lounge is naturally a foreigner's lounge. If he comes in and out of the foreigners' lounge, he is likely to be suspected.

This means that as long as you know that the backpack is in the bathroom, anyone can get the mask.

"Then let's do this for now." After listening to the testimony, Officer Megure said to the four people: "Please go to other rooms and wait for a while. We still need to investigate in this lounge."

Afterwards, Takagi led the four players, Xiaolan and Conan towards the door.

"Kakakaka!!"

As soon as the few people went out, the flashes and camera shutters kept ringing, followed immediately by crazy questions from the media.

During this period, they also met a player who had just finished the game. The opponent was injured all over his body and his face was covered with bandages. He looked like a mummy.

Of course, this is not the point.

The great god Jingqing had already put on a mask before going out. When he saw his injured partner, he went over to express his condolences.

But when he saw the back of the head of the great god Jingqing's mask, Conan discovered a key clue.

"Karasawa Criminal, it seems that I am one step ahead this time!" A smile appeared on Conan's lips, and he immediately used the excuse that something had been left behind and ran back to the lounge at the crime scene to watch the video for confirmation.

And when it opens the door...

"This is it." In the waiting room, Karasawa pointed to the back of the prisoner's head in the video, "Officer Megure, look, there are two strings tied to the back of the prisoner's head, which means the prisoner is probably wearing two masks. …”

"Eh? Conan, why are you here again?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, Officer Memu turned to look at the door and asked.

"Ah, I forgot something!" Conan quickly lied and prevaricated, but the depression in his eyes could not be concealed. I thought I had discovered the clues in advance, but Tang Ze took the lead...

Of course, Karasawa, who didn't know about Conan's psychological activities, thought that Conan had some clues as he hurried over.

So while Officer Megure was watching the video carefully, he came to Conan and whispered, "Did you find anything here?"

"No, the clue I want to say has been discovered by you." Conan said slightly depressed.

"Ah, you said the mask ties." Tang Ze was startled when he heard this, and then he laughed secretly.

Although he seems to be ahead in this, in fact he is evenly matched with Conan.

The reason why he said this was because he took advantage of his identity and watched the video once at the beginning, and then showed the video once to Officer Megure and Kogoro Mori.

If Tang Ze couldn't find something wrong in the video these three times, he would have been blind.

Conan, on the other hand, watched the video once and didn't have the chance to watch it again, but he had a "flash of inspiration" due to luck. Generally speaking, he ended up on the same path.

It's just that I had a little time advantage and unintentionally hurt Conan's heart again.

Hey, for handsome people, even God is on their side.

Tangze sighed secretly, and was about to say a few more words to continue to irritate Conan's heart, but Chiba Criminal, who was on the side, pushed open the door and walked in, telling the two of them that the results of the forensic report had come out.

First, a mask with blood stains was found in the bathroom. The blood stains on it were the same as the blood type of the deceased. It was basically the mask that the prisoner was wearing at the time of the crime.

At the same time, the hair remaining in the mask is also from the same person, and is exactly the same as the hair in the masks of other "wolf-masked people".

In other words, the only person who has ever worn this wolf head mask is the mask user, the Great God Jingqing.

In addition, the deceased tore the prisoner's mask before he died. Logically speaking, there should be remnants of the prisoner's skin tissue on his fingernails. However, after careful inspection, nothing was found except for the material on the mask.

"Damn it, is that really the case?" Officer Megure said with a depressed look on his face: "You are really right about what Karasawa said. The prisoner is wearing another mask underneath the mask."

"In this case, there is no way to identify the murderer with evidence." Mouri Kogoro also frowned and agreed.

Faced with this puzzling evidence appraisal, Tang Ze looked relaxed.

Although this identification seems to be of no help, it actually completely supports Tangze's reasoning.

As long as we combine the abnormalities seen in the video after the prisoner committed the crime, the answer to who the prisoner is is already clear.

"The next step is the experiment." Although Conan said it as a question, his tone was extremely determined.

"Ah, yes, this method is more convenient, isn't it?"

Tangze smiled slightly, and then he called Takagi and asked him to take the four players back to the lounge at the crime scene.

Reluctantly suppressing the reporters who wanted to film the joint reasoning of the "detective" and the "criminal", Karasawa moved the bench to the wall where the deceased was killed, sat there, and made a request to the four of them.
