Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

From the shop owner, Conan and his friends got the surnames of the three people, which were Kiritani, Yasuki and Sekinai.

Now with the names and photos, Zhugu's father asked his children, "Do any of these three people look familiar to you?"

"It was dark and he was wearing a hat, so I couldn't recognize him. I saw the nail when he returned to the car."

The second of the three photos, Mr. Anju, was taken leaning against a car.

"Boss, is the imported car that the guy in the middle is leaning on his own?"

"Yes, I heard it has been open for more than ten years."

Maori Kogoro turned around and asked the little boy, "Is this the car? The body color is also black."

"I do not know."

"Then the man on the right wearing a hat, is that the one wearing a hat of this style?"

"Uh……"

Conan felt it was difficult to get any more information about the murderer's appearance from Zhugu's brother, so he turned to ask the store owner.

“May I ask why the nail snake logo changed?”

The boss actually knew the inside story of this matter. "I heard that the previous logo was designed by Rock Itagaki who left the group. The fans kept making a fuss and asked them to change the logo. Now Rock has had another incident. Nail Snake is holding a memorial concert today. Although he has left the group, he and the leader are very good friends."

At this time, Mao Lilan was staring at the three photos in a trance. The photo on the far left actually contained her favorite teapot.

"So this ad was shot by Miss Yoko!"

"No, you haven't even seen the commercial, so how do you know what a teapot looks like?"

“That’s because I saw the promotional truck for it.”

Mao Lilan took out the photo from her mobile phone, which showed a truck carrying an extra-large teapot.

"I didn't expect there would be a truck promoting teapots. Could there be a truck promoting hammers? Never mind. It's unlikely."

Kogoro Mori himself rejected his idea.

Eisuke Hondou took Ran Mouri's phone and began to look at the photo.

“What a cute coffee pot.”

Conan noticed his actions and found that he was pressing on Ran Mouri's phone.

"Sorry, I think I pressed another button."

"It's ok."

Seeing that they could not find any other clues in the tattoo shop, they returned to the bridge and could only rely on the memory of little Zhu Gu.

Zhu Gu's father wanted to give up and decided to take his son to the police station to report the case, since his son did see the crime happen anyway.

Conan was walking along the crosswalk of the bridge when he suddenly saw his shadow, which gave him an inspiration.

Zhugu Xiaopeng talked about two things, the nails and the glowing hammer. The puzzle of the former has been solved, and Conan has also figured out the latter, which is related to light.

He walked up to little Zhugu and said it was just a dream.

"When you saw it, it should have been as dark as it is now. How did you see the tattoo clearly?"

Kogoro Mouri, who is easily misled, immediately agreed, but Ran Mouri said that the light might be due to the fireworks.

Hondou Eisuke happily reasoned, "If that's the case, the suspect should not be on the side where the fireworks are visible, but on the opposite side. Standing where the fireworks are hitting him, the backlight will make the tattoo even more difficult to identify."

Maori Kogoro: "I see."

Conan said he couldn't carry him, "If it was on the other side, the lane the little brother was in was so far away from the bridge, how could he see the tattoo."

Little Zhu Gu was speechless: "So I said I saw it when he got on the bus."

"So he was closest to you after he got in the car, but he was sitting in the driver's seat, so how did you see the tattoo?"

"He put his hand out of the car and that was fine."

Maori Kogoro judged from the direction the vehicle was traveling that the man's tattoo was on his right hand.

Unfortunately, the tattoo shop closed early because of the memorial concert, so they couldn't see the photos.

Just when everyone was at a stalemate, Conan said: "Maybe it's in Xiaolan's phone."

Hondou Eisuke glanced quickly at Conan.

Mao Lilan said it was impossible, while checking the photo album, "It really is there, I remember I didn't take a photo."

Hondou Eisuke had to come out to claim it, "Haha, maybe I pushed it down accidentally."

Maori Kogoro was very happy at the unexpected turn of events. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have redeemed yourself. Let's take a look at the photos."

Among the three people, the man in the middle and the man on the right both have tattoos on their right hands, which excludes only one person.

Conan gave another hint, "If it's the man in the middle who's driving, he has an imported car."

"Kid, you're wrong. What if the person on the right also has a car? The person in the middle taking a photo with the car only means that he likes cars very much..."

After mentioning cars several times in a row, Kogoro Maori also realized a problem. Imported cars are generally left-hand drive, which is inconsistent with their previous reasoning.

In order to avoid mistakes, he also took away Mao Lilan's mobile phone for verification.

"What if he rented a car that day, and happened to rent a right-hand drive car?"

"Impossible. A person who is used to driving on the left suddenly switched to driving on the right and caused an accident, which ruined his plan. So it seems that the murderer is Mr. Kiritani on the right."

Hondou Eisuke suggested: "Let's call the police and have him arrested."

"No, we only have circumstantial evidence, not conclusive evidence. But with this evidence, we can have the police summon him for verification. We will also need the corroboration of the little brother, but don't talk about the glowing hammer then."

“But I saw it!”

At the last step, Conan said again: "Could it be that building that little brother saw?"

"It only has a handle but no head. There are several types of hammers. Some are cylindrical, some are shaped like a sailboat, and some are shaped like an inverted coffee pot..."

Coffee pot?

Mao Lilan took out her photo and tried to combine it with the building in the distance. It really looked like an upside-down hammer.

There were lights on the propaganda vehicle and the building, and it really looked like a big, shining hammer.

“But you can’t see it here.”

"Yes, it should be the Beihu Central Bridge in the middle. And based on the angle, we can roughly guess where the bag was thrown down. There may be evidence left there."

Hondou Eisuke thought there was a lighter with the criminal's fingerprints on it, so he was groping around when he was smoking.

"I have a way to make the criminal confess himself."

Everyone looked at Conan and listened attentively.

It turned out that he wanted the prisoner to speak out himself, so they first went to the parking lot to set off some small fireworks to recreate the scene for the prisoner.

Miyano Osamu and Takagi Wataru told the police their identities and wanted to take him away. "Someone said they saw your face and seemed to hear your voice."

"The fireworks are so loud, how could they hear my voice!"
