Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

“We don’t know either. Although Mr. Xiong San is in the villa, he may still be the murderer. In any case, the murderer is one of the three brothers. When the police arrive tomorrow, they will definitely be able to easily find out who killed him,” Zhi Yong explained.

“Yes, it’s getting late, everyone should get some rest,” Ayako Suzuki said.

Tetsuji Tomizawa is now dead.

However, the two went to find Tomizawa Yuzo.

Regardless of whether Tomizawa Yuzo is the murderer or not, he still wants to see his father's body.

However, Tomizawa Yuzo did not come along, which explains the situation.

The two did not inform Yuzo Tomizawa that Tetsuji Tomizawa was dead.

This made the three of them, including Sonoko, very confused.

They just didn't know the reason, so they were too embarrassed to ask about it.

"After what happened tonight, for everyone's safety, the three of you girls will sleep together. Xiaolan, you must protect the safety of the other two."

"Don't worry, I understand."

"That's good. I'll patrol outside and make sure no one gets close to the villa," Zhiyong added.

"Then I'll have to trouble you," Ayako Suzuki said.

Silent all night.

The police finally arrived early the next morning.

The team leader this time was Officer Yokomizo.

They both know Xiaolan and Zhiyong.

When Inspector Yokomizo learned that Kogoro Mouri hadn't come, he was a little disappointed.

After listening to everyone's account, he said, "Around 11:30 last night, you saw someone who looked like Tomizawa Yuzo, who killed his father, Tomizawa Tetsuji. Am I right?"

"Yes."

At that moment, Tomizawa Yuzo came out of his house.

Yuzo Tomizawa had been arguing with his father the night before and had been in his studio the whole time, so he had no idea what had happened.

He was quite surprised to see so many police officers.

Tomizawa Yuzo asked in confusion, "Ayako, what happened? Why are there so many police officers?"

Ayako Suzuki gave no cold reply.

Tomizawa Yuzo then came out of the room.

When Officer Yokomizo saw him, he gave a signal to the police officers next to him, and two officers stepped forward and took Tomizawa Yuzo into custody.

Tomizawa Yuzo asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Officer Yokomizo asked sternly, "Are you Tomizawa Yuzo?"

"Yes, is there anything I can help you with?" Tomizawa Yuzo asked, puzzled.

"Last night, you killed your father, Tomizawa Tetsuji, didn't you?" Inspector Yokomizo asked sternly.

"What? My father was killed? It wasn't me, it wasn't me, I didn't do it at all!" Tomizawa Yuzo hurriedly protested.

"Then last night..."

"What's wrong, Xiong San? What happened at home? Why are there so many police officers?"

Before Officer Yokomizo could finish speaking, two more young men who looked very much like Tomizawa Yuzo arrived, though their attire was quite different.

"Big brother, second brother," Tomizawa Yuzo called out upon seeing the newcomer.

"I don't know what happened, but now I have new material for my novel."

After introductions, the visitors were identified as Tomizawa Tetsuji's eldest son, Tomizawa Taichi, and his second son, Tomizawa Tatsuji.

"Tomizawa Taichi, Tomizawa Tatsuji, and Tomizawa Yuzo, one of you murdered Tomizawa Tetsuji. Now all three of you are suspects," Officer Yokomizo said sternly.

"What? My dad's dead?"

"How could we possibly kill Dad?"

After a night, Zhiyong actually knew the truth.

Not only has Zhiyong remembered the plot of the case, but Tomizawa Tetsuji's soul also has complete memories.

Even though Tomizawa Tetsuji had lived with his son for so many years, he still recognized him at a glance, even when his son was dressed up.

But Tomizawa Tetsuji never imagined that the son he had raised for so many years would hate him so much that he wanted to kill him.

This really shows that Tetsuji Tomizawa has failed in his son's upbringing.

Tomizawa Taichi's behavior is truly both laughable and pathetic; Zhiyong is utterly exasperated.

Now that everyone's here, we just need to wait a bit for Zhiyong to come out and show off.

However, we need to find a suitable time for this.

If Zhiyong were to reveal the murderer now...

If he were to act like a prophet, he wouldn't be showing off; he would be a complete idiot.

Inspector Yokomizo shouted, "Alright, the murderer is one of the three of you. If you don't want to be suspected, tell me now your alibi for around 11:30 last night."

“I was in my studio all night,” Yuzo Tomizawa replied.

"Is there anyone who can vouch for you?" Officer Yokomizo asked again.

“Well…” Tomizawa Yuzo thought for a moment, then said, “Oh right, last night, I asked a friend who draws illustrations to call and wake me up. It was around 11:30.”

Upon hearing Tomizawa Yuzo's words, a cold glint flashed in Suzuki Ayako's eyes.

"You asked someone to wake you up?" Officer Yokomizo asked curiously.

“Yes, because I want to take a nap first, and then stay up all night to finish a task,” Yuzo Tomizawa replied.

After asking for the contact information of Tomizawa Yuzo's friend, Officer Yokomizo gave an order to one of his subordinates.

"Go and investigate this immediately."

“Officer, I left a message on the phone last night. I don’t know if that counts as proof of my alibi,” said Tomizawa Taichi as he stepped forward.

Inside the living room of the Tomizawa villa.

There were two voicemail messages, one of which was from Yuzo Tomizawa around 3 PM.

There was also a message from Tomizawa Taichi.

"Dad, that's great! The Air vs. Air team finally won! Thanks to Kogure's performance in the bottom of the sixth inning, and that home run to right field. Kogure is a really great hitter. I'm going there tomorrow. Recording time: 11:34 PM."

I listened to the recorded phone call.

"The actual time of the murder was 11:30, right?" Officer Yokomizo asked.

“Yes, we checked our watches just before we saw the culprit, so we can confirm the time,” Sonoko said as she came out.

"So, 11:34 is the time the murder occurred," Officer Yokomizo muttered to himself.

“No matter how you look at it, my older brother wouldn’t have had time to kill anyone, because that match was only broadcast on satellite TV, and it ended around 11:25 PM. If you didn’t watch the match, you wouldn’t know the result,” Tomizawa Tatsuji said.

"Go and check the broadcast times on TV and radio immediately," Officer Yokomizo said to one of his officers.

"So now, Mr. Tatsuji, what is your alibi?" Officer Yokomizo asked again.

“I was still in Okinawa last night, on a business trip. I only arrived at Haneda Airport three hours ago on the earliest flight of the day,” Tatsuji Tomizawa said calmly.

……

Chapter 104 What a laughable and pathetic person.

Inspector Yokomizo asked, "Is what you're saying true? Can anyone vouch for you?"

"Officer, you can check the flight information." Tomizawa Tatsuji said nonchalantly.

"Mr. Da, it seems you don't have time to watch the news," Zhiyong said with a smile.

"What does this mean?" Tomizawa Tatsuji asked nervously.

“I remember last night, when we were watching a baseball game with your father, there was a news report that said the Ryukyu Islands were affected by a typhoon, and all flights and ships were delayed,” Zhiyong asked curiously.

"Yes, I saw it too. If Mr. Da Er had taken the earliest flight today, he would have been delayed as well," Conan asked.

"Yes, Mr. Da Er, were you really on Ryukyu Island last night?" Zhi Yong asked curiously.

"What?" Tomizawa Tatsuji was shocked.

"So you're giving a false statement. May I ask where you were last night?" Inspector Yokomizo asked, looking at Tomizawa Tatsuji.

Inspector Yokomizo was so serious that it made Tatsuji Tomizawa feel uneasy.

After calming down, Tomizawa Tatsuji said, "Okay, to be honest, I was actually in Tokyo yesterday because my fiancée Hiromi was sick, so I stayed to take care of her. I was afraid my father would find out that I was neglecting my work because of her, so I asked someone to go to Okinawa in my place."

"Who can vouch for this?" Officer Yokomizo asked.

“Hiromi is great. Oh, right, I also watched a baseball game. It wasn’t on the news at 10:30, so I changed the channel to see Kogure hit a home run,” Tomizawa Tatsuji said eagerly.

Officer Yokomizo said to his subordinate, "Send one of you to check."

One of the policemen agreed and left.

"Uncle Taiichi, you must be a fan of Kogure, right?" Conan asked, feigning innocence.

“Yes. What’s wrong?” Tomizawa Taichi asked.

"Since you're a fan of Kogure and you watched last night's game, can you explain what you mean by that home run to right field?" Zhiyong asked first.

"Right field, Mr. Taichi, I remember you did say earlier that Kogure hit that ball. I ask you, did you really watch the game?" Officer Yokomizo questioned.

"Um, I didn't expect that I would accidentally let it slip," Tomizawa Taichi said embarrassedly.

"Did you kill your father?" Officer Yokomizo asked.

"No, no," Tomizawa Taichi hurriedly waved his hands.

Tomizawa Taichi further explained, "What I meant was that I didn't watch the match on TV last night. Actually, I listened to it on the radio."

"Listening to the radio?" Officer Yokomizo asked.
